 The king is the sole proprietor of all | new lands that may be discovered by ' Englishmen, and if some bloody Brit
 isher" should find the north pole or run | upon an unknown island in the midst
 of the sea, it would belong to King Ed
 ward.
 The king may demand the immediate | return to England of any of his sub 1 jects, no matter where they may be- and he has the power to forbid any par
 ticular person leaving the country with
 out being compelled to give the reason.
 He can forbid the importation of any
 article at any time, but cannot remit cus- toms duties without the consent ct par | liament. He has tne sole right to print | the Bible, the Book of Common Prayer | and the acts of parliament, and is enti- | tied to all the profits that may be de- rived from their sale. He cen forbid
 the printing of any book or the presen-
 tation of any play within the British dominions. He can declare war ard con- clude peace entirely upon his own mo-
 ton, but he cannot alienate British ter ritory for any consideration.
 He is at liberty to invite himself to dine with any subject at any time. And custom gives him more liberties in ac- cepting hospitality than are enjoyed by the President or tne Onlteu otdteS. The latter is supposed never to dine with anyone except the members of his Cab met, but the king of England has the privilege and the habit of accepting in vitations freely from his intimate friends and persons of distinction. Those who wish to have him as a guest to dinner make it known to his secretary, and then, if he chooses, the king commands them to entertain him on a certain date The host submits a list of persons whom he would. like to invite and the king may add or strike off as many names as he pleases. One of the habitual jokes told of him in connection with persons who are more distinguished than agreeable, is that when they submitted their lists of guests his majesty inquiries of his sec retary whether 1t Is possible to strike off the name of the host.
 He seldom exercises this privilege, be- cause person who is in a position to entertain the king must know who Is and who Is not persona grata to him. When ever the king desires to pay call he always sends notice in advance, stating the hour and the minute, and he sets his subjects a good example in punctuaiity Etiquette forbids the presence of any per- son but the host and hostess, unless the king should inquire for other members of the family. He has visited several Americans in London. He called upon Mrs. Hay at least twice while Secretary Hay was American ambassador; he has called upon Mrs. Henry White, the wife of our secretary of legation; Mrs. John w. Mackay, the Duchess of Marlborough.

PENDLETON DEALERS CLAIM
"WALLA WALLA CORNER"

There Is Still Large Supply in the
Blue Mountains Near
Moacham.

The city Of Pendleton seems to be
much elated over the fact as is stated
that the corner in the wood market
has been broken, and that the people
Of that place will have ample fuel to
keep them warm during the coming
winter. Regarding this subject the
Pendleton Tribune has this to say:
THE great Walla Walla corner of
the wood market has been broken and
Pendleton has wood a-plenty, and to
spare Waua Walla dealers gloated to
a considerable extent over their erst-
while corner Of the market. saying
that they had bought up all the wood
from the Blue mountain and Cascade
points and that Pendleton would
freeze to death this winter. That was
a mistake.

few years was supposed to be incur

pronounced it a local disease and pre-
scribed local remedies, and by con-
stantly falling to cure with local
treatment, pronounced it incurable.
Science has proven catarrh to be a
constitutional disease and therefore
requires constitutional treatment.
