Norway is experiencing a fish fam inc. It appears that large shoals of ferocious seals have appeared on the northwest coast and wrought havoc among the fish so that not oplT have ae fishermen nothing to sell but they have not even food for their own ne cessities. The dealers have petitiOned parliament to end relief and also to make representations to Russia so that an expedition from Norway may pene- trate into the North sea and extermin- ate the seals in their breeding places there. It is suggested that the Nor wegian warships should be utilized in the work of abolishing the seals. It is declared that if extraordinary meas ures are not taken the Norwegian fisheries will be destroyed for many years.

H. R. Pearson. a naval cadet at Annapolis, who had his jaw broken recently by the hazing process at that institution has withdrawn from the academy. Newly appointed cadets should go to Annapolis armed with the latest improved naval arms and should use them effectively on occa- sions similar to the one which resulted in this fellow getting a broken jaw. A few dead naval cadets would do more towards breaking up hazing than anything that could be devised.

The Globe Times says that "if the average legislator would apply the same business principles to any meas ure involving the expenditure of ter ritorial funds, that he brings to bear on his own affairs, would scrutinize as closely every proposed draft on the
 treasury as he would similar attack on his own bank balance, weighing the benefits and counting the costs would not the result be lower tax rate?" This is good plan for every man in official position to act upon. If it were acted on the result would be better government

| They tell the story of a Missourian who was elected to the legislature from Ozark county, who had never been away from home and had never seen a railroad train. When he started to Jefferson City to attend the session they had to blind fold him and back him on the train. Another member from an adjoining county who has served two or three terms in the lower house, scorned not only railroad passes, but railorads as we'll. In fact, he would travel only on foot and each time he was elected he walked the entire distance from his home to Jefferson City, where he re- mained until the close of the session, when he walked back home. He got we'll acquainted with the people along
 the route and would stop over night with some of the friends thus made on his biennial pilgrimages.

THE STATEHOOD QUESTION.

Our contemporary had another statehood spasm this morning in which whole lot of space is covered with very little being said. It accuses the Journal Miner of assuming to rep resent the sentiment of the territory by expressing its opinion on the sub ject. Such is not the case. It ex- presses an honest opinion as to the sentiment of the territory, whereas our contemporary made a positive as- sertion that ninety-five per cent of the suming itself to speak for that propor tion of citizens.
 How truthfully it states the ques- tion can be seen from the following
 "As to a solid democratic front in the senate showing it is a political question, that is even not so."
 1t is difficult to understand what better illustration could be given of the political feature of the case than lulS. "llH d SOllu uclllOCIdIlC NOtc III its favor and majority of the repub- lican senators against it.
 One can haggle about this all he wants to, but behind it all is the question of politics. So far as Ari- zona is concerned her citizens regard less of politics are in favor of admis- sion as a single state-that is major ity of them probably. But if it were left to a vote it is extremely doubtful if ninety five per cent of the total vote would be cast for it.
 If the majority of its people prefer to remain as a territory rather than enjoy statehood with New Mexico united to Arizona the Journal-Min is willing to abide by the decision. Having existed here for thirty eight years in a territory it can endure it for few years longer.
 The discussion of the question is a protfiless one at best, as there does not seem to be any more show of ad- mission as. one state than there is for the admission of the two territories as separate states.

When they want anything done down in Mexico they just go to work and do it. Officials in the City of Mexico have just ordered the Sunday closing of all the saloons in that city. There was no petition to the city council, no prolonged discussion over the matter in the council or outside of it, but the official in charge simply issued an edict that the thing be done and saloons are now closed, on Sun- day. The new move is endorsed by the newspapers and peep. generally

The Los Angeles Herald says: "A young man, dark, about five feet ten inches high and wearing a black suit of clothes, reached over the desk at the business office of The Herald yes terday morning and abstracted from the cash drawer the sum of sl50. Be fore anyone could stop him he had made his escape" Just think of a newspaper office having s1. 50 in the till and of having it within reach of a thief. But then this was metropoli- tan paper, and therefore may be ex- cusable for having that much on hand at one time.

The Tucson Citizen has a political fit, or misfit, over the proposition of ''the alleged compromise scheme in volving the absorption of Arizona by New Mexico" The Journal Miner has not heard of any proposition look ing to the absorption of Arizona by New Mexico. There has been some thing said about the absorption of New Mexico by Arizona, and the ad- mission of the two territories as the state of Arizona. The proposed state would be one of the biggest in the union.

A telegram from Washington says that "the democrats generally declare that they will not agree to the con solidation and some of them say that rather than submit they will let the bill fail altogether. And yet our contemporary insists that there is no politics in the statehood question. If New Mexico is joined to Arizona, and admitted as one state, it would make republican state, hence democrats would oppose it.

 It is related that while in New York, fortnight ago.

"Why, professor, said the minister, ''I heard an eleven year old girl over there one day step up to boy of about her own age, and say. I'll lick hell out of you'' Dr. LOT eng looked puzzled, for he is not ia miliar with American slang. ''Lick, :" he said: "was ist dos 1ick'?'' ''Why, lick. said the clergyman, little puzzled in return, |" lick is to kick out of. to stamp out from, to eradi- cate. " 'Oh, said the professor. land he'll 1 don't know hell. !" "Well.
