LONDON, Dec. %. The representa-
tives of the Marconi company say they
have been receiving transatlantic mes
sages for week. They add that the
messages to King Edward and others
came through without a hitch and prac-
tically instantaneously. The instant the
key was depressed in Nova Scotia, the
receiver Il, Poldhu, Cornwall, answered.
1t is calculated that the company will
be able to handle 1000 words an hour.
AS soon as it is able to get the post
office authorities to connect PoIdhu
with the inland telegraph the company
will commence regular commercial
business between Cornwall and Nova
Scotia. Marconi is going to Cape Cod,
where his apparatus needs only slight
adjustment before it will be ready to
be linked up with Poldhu, which at
present is the only wireless station on
this side capable of receiving trans
Atlantic messages. Other stations will
shortly be built on the continent.

A report of the meeting of the State
Grange in Portland last week is pub
lished on the It'll page. At the closing
meeting, Thursday evening, resolutions
were adopted demanding the strict en-
forcement of the prohibitory law, ask
ing for measures to protect the price on
the sweet corn crop of the State, and
demanding such change in the tax
system of the State as will make the
burden of taxation fall equally on all
forms of property, and that it be taxed
as provided in the constitution of the
State, according to the value thereof
We are indebted to E. w. Howe,
novelist, musical critic and enthusiast
and editor of the Atchison, Kansas,
Globe, for an illustrated souvenir of
the .Atchison Corn Carnival of 1902
and for Don't Worry button and
booklet explanatory of the club of that
name. Mr.. Howe was the originator Of
the Corn Carnival and of the Don't
Worry Club-which by the way every
one ought to join-and one is a good
thing for Atchison and the other good
thing for everybody. The souvenir is a
beautiful little booklet, fine specimen
of the art presorvative. To our Kansas
brother we give the common salutati0n
on ''the plains" in the -fifties-How!

SOME REASONS WHY WE SHOULD HAVE A
HUNTERS LICENSE LAW.

SOME REASONS WHY WE SHOULD HAVE A
HUNTERS LICENSE LAW.
First: We need the money. The big
game of the state, as well as the game birds,
are practically at the mercy of the game
hog and the poacher, for the simple reason
that we have not the money to protect
them. It is admitted on all sides that
more money is sadly needed for this pur-
pose
Second: We need the money so that we
can pay farmers for damage done growing
crops by deer.
Third: In no other way can we get it.
The Legislature will no doubt appropriate
the usual amount the coming session, but it
takes most of that to operate the fish hatch
cries and fish culture stations, leaving but
comparatively little for warden service. 1t
costs money to hire men to patrol the great
forests on our long extended Canadian
border and elsewhere, and if our game is to
be reasonably protected, we must have the
money to dot.
Fourth: A license law to hunt big game
is American, adopted by about all the
States of the Union that have any game to
protect.

before The Mohican Company hammer
ed down the price.
With an organization broad enough
to encompass 10000 stores, the outlet
would be so stupendous that the average
price of all provisions would not exceed
this same 60 cents ON dollar.
Such an organization would refine its
own sugar, grind its own flour, import
it's own coffees and teas and spices. 1t
would slaughter its own meats, produce
its own butter and cheese, and would
manufacture all the other products that
go to complete perfect provision store.
There would be no middlemen here, no
dividends on watered stock, no tribute
to any one, no waste anywhere.
Now, to return to the newspaper,
mention may be made of what Mr..
Munsey has done since he became the
proprietor of our old friend the Boston
Journal. In brief, he has reduced the
size of the page, banished advertising
from the first page and given reading
matter the precedence on every page.
The result is a paper more convenient
to handle and easier to read. 1t is a
bold experiment, as it will inevitably
result in the loss of much advertising,
at first. The advertisers have so long
controlled the columns of the daily
newspapers that they are not likely to
surrender at once their positions ''top
Of column next reading matter" mid
die of first page surrounded by reading
matter" etc. But if the general pub
lie approves the change, if it commends
itself to the reader, as we think it must,
the advertiser will be glad to get
aboard. Another Boston daily has,
since the Journal adopted this policy,
gone to the opposite extreme. The
first page of recent issue resembled a
crazy quilt, with little driblets of read
ing matter here and there among the
advertisements, in which whiskey ad-
vertisements were most conspicuous.
Look on this picture and then on the
Boston Journals clean, newsy first
page. Which will win? It is up to the
public to decide. There can be no ques-
ton as to which ought to win, and we
hope that abundant success will crown
Mr.. Munsey's endeav0rs.

A Great Comedy Production.

Elmer Walters latest sensation, "a

Of the strongest comedy characters
that have ever been collected in ones
play. Each Que differs vastly from
the other, and lends opportunity for
variety and action. The ghost scene
in the first and the darky porter's
scene in the third act are two OF the
funniest Imaginable. The dramatic
scenes are fully abreast OF the comedy,
and the scenic mounting superb. The
church Of the Holy Cross in the sec
ond act is one Of the handsomest set
tings Of shis kind that has ever been
attempted The Opera House In the
third act is a.decided novelty, some
thing OF entirely new and out Of the
ordinary, while the old hotel in the
last act is the very embodiment OF
quaintness and originality.

NORWOOD, or the Absinthe
Drinkers of Paris will be produced
at Swisher's Theatre ON New Years
night. It's incidents are based upon
the terrible curse of absinthe, per-
nicious evil which is spreading not
only over the entire European CONT
nent, but throughout America as
well. Working upon this theme,
Marie Corelli wrote one of the great.
esq works of the nineteenth century,
book Of great dramatic strength
and of greater poetic livination.
Utilizing the material, Cbas. w.
Chase, the dramatist, has written
drama Of such intensity, purity of
thought, beauty of sentiment and
general excellence throughout, that
many who have seen it say that like
Corellps book the play will live for
ever. Few who have read the book
will miss the opportunity of witness
ing Corelli's wonderful character
studies endowed with life and NOV
ing and talking before them. Mr..
Alden Benedict, who has purchased
the sole rights to tn g play, has pro-
yided strong and capable company,
beautiful scenery and many novel
electric effects and illusions and
promises rs one OF the hes enter
tainmcnts we have witnessed in
many years.
