A HIGH TRIBUTE.

One OF the highest tributes, il not
the very highest, ever paid to a most
deserving class of people, is that OF
Senator Eugene Hale to the country
editor. In discussing the subject of
postage on newspapers the senator
from Maine remarked OF the country
editor.
"He is a packhorse OF every COM
munity, the promoter OF every laud-
able enterprise, the worst underpaid
laborer in the vineyard. Counting
his space as capital, he gives more to
charity, his means considered, than
any other man OF society. He is a
power in politics, a pillar in the
church, leader in the crusade for
better morals. He is pre-eminently
the friend OF humanity. Line upon
line, paragraph upon paragraph, day
by day, he is embalming in cold type
facts from which the Herodotus, Taci-
tus, Sismondi and Macauley of the
future will write the history of our
times. He fully chronicles our advent
into the world, briefly notes our up
risings and our down sittings, and
sorrowfully records our exit.
"We are all more or less-generally
more-his handiwork, and the crea-
ture should not be ungrateiul to his
creator. Without his generous and
enthusiastic labors most of us would
never have been here; and, when he
tires OF us, most OF us will return to
private life amid rural scenes propi.
tious for secret meditation and silent
prayer. Working night and day dur
ing the campaign, when the election
is over and the time comes for distri-
button Of the loaves AMI fishes-now
vulgarly called pie-by some strange
lapse OF memory he is generally for
gotten"

The merchant or business man who
does not unite with Others in strength.
enlng any organization which has for
Its object the support and protection
OF home industries, makes a serious
mistake. No town can maintain a
claim to spirit OF progress that fails
to act as unit in supporting and
protecting home enterprises. Every
citizen should feel local pride in
them.

At meeting of a board OF trustees
in Pasco it was proposed that an hon
orarium be presented to the clerk, who
had been very energetic in the inter-

arose and startled his hearers by re-
marking; Gentlemen, our worthy
clerk don't want nothing OF the sort.
If we gave him a honorarium he
wouldn't have time to play it. A

more service to him." This happ ened

Irwin Fl. Spriggs, mayor of the min
ing town OF Eureka, CAL, has resigned
the mayoralty to become faro dealer
in gambling house in the town.
Spriggs was elected on the democratic
ticket. He has valuable interests in
mining properties and is considered
we'll off in a financial way, but he
loves the excitement OF the gambling
table and, believing that it would be
inconsistent for him to hold the posi-.
ton OF chief executive OF the town
and at the same time breaking the
law daily and nightly by presiding at
a faro bank, he dropped the mayoralty.
Too bad, for the Hon. Squiggs would
have certainly made dandy mayor.
However, we venture the guess that
someone pointed out the inconsis-
tency of his incumbency and brought
about the reluctant act of the would
be gambler. Bye and bye he will wish
he had played mayor instead OF cards
and of two evils thus chosen the least.

Referring to the sale of the Danish Wes
Indies, tie ST. Thomas Bulletin in itl
Official advices says that, tae Premier, DIR
Deuntzer, in an interview to day on the
subject OF the negotiations for the sale O.
the Danish West Indies, is quoted as say
ing that the Washington and London
dispatches declaring that the islands have
Deen sold to the United States for $4,0U0,
900. with the understanding that the In,
habItants are to be granted citizenship and
tree trade, are all incorrect.
The negotiations are progressing, but the
result cannon be definitely predlcted. The
negotiations, the Premier said, would be
concluded at Copenhagen, the treaty would
be signed at Washington, and it would be
ratified BY theU nited states Senate before
it received the ratification Of the Danish
kigsdag.
Our returning members Of the Merchants
Commission report irem Washington that
the projected treaty Of cession OF the Danish
West Indies to the United States Is not
SO well advanced as il was hoped would be
the case at this time. It is now doubtful
whether the treaty will be completed in
time to submit to Congress when 1t reas
sembles ne month.
Negotiations have not reached q point
vet where il can be predicted cer,ainIy that
q treaty will result. The issues do not touch
the price to be paid so much as the condi-
lions as to the future Of the citizens Of the
Danish West Indies, sought to be imposed
By Denmark. The Unistd STA es desires q
simple treaty, and one tnst will leave it az

without any restrictions imposed By treaty.
