SEEKING TIFF SEA.

Again the M~anchurian question i!
forced 10 the front. when Minister Con
ger demands al iacuiry into his sta;e-
ment of conditions. and until it mas oeen
shown absolutely that he was misled by
some informant, Americans viii believe
that the denial is in the interest Of Rus
| sian diplomacy; that Cassini is not kept
fully informed, FOR the very purpose
that he may deny.
The struggle Of Russia for an open
port is one which has its tragedies and
which at long range shorys ;he indie
fatigabiIity Of this nation, in carrying
out the behest of Peter the Great. No
where has Russia a great open port.
Barred from the Atlantic, with only ice
bound harbors in the Pacific, it is con-
ceivable that the Car must struggle
TO the last TO secure a free port. Back
of Turkish, of A~fghanistan and Beloo-
chistan and Persian endeavors must lie
this determination TO find untrammeled
outlet to the great high way of COM
merce, the ocean, and for two centuries
has this struggle gone On. Yet the vast
empire is practically shut out. After
reviewing these facts. the New York
says:
Such inland doom must be all but in
-olarable TO such a country. 1t must
seriously interfere with the develop
nent of Russian industry and COM
nerce and with the dvanc of Rus
ian civilization. 1t is difficult not to
ympathize with her in her struggles to
each the sea, the great highway of in
irrational ~ntercourse Yet we cannot ,
oncede her right to gain her outlet by
respassing on the territory OF the :
Ights of others, unless the appeal be .
the primitive right of conquest. Per- y
APPS that right is paramount. But the c
xercise of it involves the gravest is .

MAY RATIFY.
sues.

Whatever may come of the opposition
TO the Panama Canal Treaty in the
Central American country, certainly the
consensus of opinion is that there will
be a settlement favorable to the United
States before the time limit expires.
Recent expressions from leaders of
thought in Colombia bear out this opin-
ion. One such prominent Bogota citizen
recently declared it to be his belief that
the treaty would be ratified before the
September limit, the opposition making
considerable noise, but eventually yield
ing to the pressure for ratification. Still
there are conflicting views of Colom-
bians. and ever of the residents of the
isthmus. VINO are certain to be mate
rally benefited by the canal construc-
tion. a sentiment Of sovereignty which
rises superior to all considerations of
prosperity and progress is at the bottom
of the honest views in -antagonism to
the ratification of the treaty. 1t seems
incredible that a people who can not
take care of their own lands and keep
them in good order should object to the
leasing of a strip of territory necessary
for the construction and maintenance
of a work of world Importance which
will make of their region the scene of
great commercial activity. Blu there
are considerations outweighing this
sentiment on the practical side of the
account, and Americans now in Colom-
bia look forward optimistically to the
day when, under the creative genius of
the American government, the canal will
be opened to the worlds commerce and
viii be lifted from the slough
Of despond into which it was plunged by
the failure of the French company.

HOW BONDS ARE SELLING.

While some local ~financiers are oil
opinion that the new bonds Of the Ter
ritory are being offered at too high a
price and at too low rate. it viii prove
of interest 10 look over some Of the
figures which indicate the demand for
bonds on the mainland. The bonds men
toned are those reported as recently
disposed of in various cities upon bids,
and the prices realized invariably show
that five per cents Of his Territory at
IS would be one-half per cent better
thar any Of a half dozen mainland
bonds.
California knows Hawaii better than
the East, and consequently it would be
well to look into the market there. In
Santa Cruz. the little city by the sea,
when 1901, 800 of four per cent improve
ment bonds were offered at par, they
found immediate buyers. Similar sales
are reported from other points of the
state. Going East. a sale is reported Of
s65. 900, five per cent bonds of Dillon,
Mont, 1O-2Os. at 1O7.
Seeking the far East Lynn, Mass.
sells 31s per cent school bonds at 1OO16.
Passaic, n. J., sells 16 year court house
bonds on a basis of 1855 per cent
Grafton. w. Va, gets a basis of AS on
a 5000 issue of AZ per cent 20 year
option bonds. Chenille, o., realized on
s45, 900 street bonds. 9k years at five
per cent, ABS, while $4,000 of "a year :
bonds, at the same ate of interest, sold
40.
North Carolina on four per cent ten
year bonds realized 1O3. 592, or a basis Of
3.57, and in the case of counties in Midi
die States there is not a single record
Of bonds being sold under par, where I
the interest is AZ per cent. C
Perhaps Hawaii is too far away, but C
1nce let the ~fnanciers know that while b
he public lands here are the property S
II the United States the Territory has r
heir use. and they constitute a sinking Il

Lord Wemyss has the unique distinc-
ton of being the only man who ever
struck the present King of England.
1t happened during a debat in the
House Of Lords, when the king. then
Prince of Wales, occupied a seat in
front OF Lord Wemyss, who was speak
ing with a great deal of animation.
While emphasizing a point he brought
his fist down on top of the princes
silk hat with such force that the hat
was smashed in and pushed down over
the eyes of the royal listener. Apologies
followed. The prince remarked that he
appreciated the force of Lord Wemyss's
remarks, and then moved out of range
Of the lords energetic arm.

malls the vaporings of critics who rallied

TINE FOR ECONOMY.

ttentio is called to the financial
condition of the Territory by the an
nouncement that the Treasurer must
borrow money and further must try
and sell treasury notes. This too when
there are in reality no expenses except
for the running Of the government!
, The moneys which are going out of the
public treasury now are being expended
not for improvements. but in the main
for salaries and for the ordinary wear
and tear Incidental to use Of public
utilities. Under this condition there
should be nothing like borrowing money
to meet bills. 1t is truly an indication
of weakness when there must be such
borrowing in the middle of a season.
1t might be well to recall that this
borrowing from the banks is a recent
habit. 1t was not always thus, in fact
IL has been for only a few years that
the treasury a TO be helped over the
soft places in the road. Most percept-
IDLY has it been the case last year and
again is the experience repeated.
The Legislature took few steps to
provide revenue and none TO open new
for the securing of added taxes,
in the matter of a few license
provisions. With this fact staring the
legislators in the fac it would be the
part of wisdom for them to see that
there is a most economical adjustment
of the appropriations to the income.
Thus far the setting aside of money for
various small things would not indi-
cate any desire to keep within the
means Of the Territory. But the duty
is none the less imperative. and it is
never too late to begin a good work.

In some experiments lately brought
TO the notice of the London Royal So
ciety, a telephone receiver was con-

quent in summer than in winter. They
are less noticed in broad daylight, but
are set up by the electric tension pre-

ticularly striking are certain sounds
resembling the distant scream of a
rocket rising in the air, and usually
heard only at night. 1t is assumed that
these are due to electric currents gen.

An idea of the distances of some of
the fixed stars is being slowly obtained.
From observations six months apart
angles are found having the diameter
of the earth's orbit as a base-line, and
from these angles the distances are
computed, the yard-stick being the
light-year, or distance that light, at the
rate of 1866 900 miles a second, traverses
in S65 days. This li~ght-year is equiva-
lent to about $4,000 times the distance
of the earth from the sun. From the
recent determinations by DR.. Elkin and
others, it appears that the nearest
bright star is Alpha Centauri, visible
only in the southern hemisphere. and
distant a little more than four light
years; while the nearest stars in the
northern sky are Sirius. at So light
years, and Procyon. at 10 light-years.
Arcturus seems to be about l25 light
years away; Regulus and Betelzruse
about 140. Light measurements indi-
cate that the sur would be a first mag
nitude star if removed to a distance of
five l~ight-years; and that Alpha Cen
taur1 emits twice as much light as the
sun, Sirius % times as much. PoIlux 100
times, and Alpha Cygni at least 1000
times as much.

In a recent English accident TWO
bathers were electrocuted by an alter
mating current of 200 volts by which
the baths were lighted. A report of
the Investigation that followed states
that with dry skin the resistance of the
human body between finger-tip and fin
ger-tip is about $1,000 ohms, and a pres
sure of 1000 volts is necessary to send
one-ffth ampere through it, yet a touch
at 1000 volts with a wet skin is likely
to be fatal. With dry hands the poles
of an alternating current of 200 volts
could be grasped with only a painful
shock, this being about the limit of
shocks given for amusement at fairs.
The current is about 1000 mpe
With wet skin the resistance would
probably be less thaQ 1000 ohms, and
