ALASKAN LIGHTHOUSES.

Captain Jarvis, collector Of customs for the dis

present session Will make further provision for the
erection of lighthouses in Alaska, and may make a
separate lighthouse district of Alaska, says the
Post -Intelligeneer.
At the present time, from Cross sound, in south
eastern Alaska, to Point Barrow, on the Arctic,
there is but single lighthouse, although another
one is in course Of construction This is coast line
considerably greater than the Atlantic coast line

WANTED--A LEADER.

81 feel quite confdent-kn from my own
experience what brave and clever fellow the China
man is-that were I accorded the necessary power
and given an absolute free hand in the Chinese gov
ernment could in the space of two or three years,
provide the Chinese empire with an army that would
be second to none in the world,
So declared Lord Wolseley, the famous British
general, who spent many years among the Chinese
and studied their manners and customs carefully.
Commenting in his autobiography upon the posi-
bilities of the Chinese race, Lord Wolseley said:
"There is no nation numerically as great as China
whose customs and modes of life are so common to
all parts of their vast empire. To me they are the
most remarkable race on EARTH and | have always
thought and still believe them to be the great com
ing ruler of the world They only want Chinese
Peter the Great or Napoleon to make them so. They
have every quality required for the good soldier and
the good sailor and in my idle speculation upon this
worlds future have long selected them as the com
batants on one side at the great battle of Armaged
don, the people of the United States of America be-
ing their opponents.
Yet this great nation of 4O0,OOO,OO0 people is to-
day the bone of contention between two nations that
are not nearly her numerical equals Russia pop
ulation is 129,OO00OO while Japans is but 45,OOCs-
600. They have gone to war over the division of a
great nation that has been rendered helpless because
she lacks leader.
Some day, perhaps, there will rise up great
Chinese leader, who will establish an educational sys
TEN, provide army and navy and hurl back the foes
who now seek the disntegration Of the Chinese en-
pire. The present deporable condition of China
may be attributed primarily to lack OF educational
facilities which has kept the empire in the dark age
period while all the other nations Of the world have
advanced

INTERVIEWING A MERMAID.

The modern newspaper man is put to many severe
tests. He must be up and doing at all times and
nothing must escape his eye or his pen. He must
be familiar with every branch of industry and trade
well up in social matters, thoroughly posted politi
cay and veritable encyclopaedia of knowledge
He must be equal to any emergency that may arise
whether it be the handling of great fire, the re-
porting of political or religious convention, or an
interview with some distinguished foreign visitor
He must essentially be an all-around man.
Wexford Jones, of the Oregonian, fills the bill
Jones halls originally from Ireland, where he larn-
ed readin' and writin' " and acquired knowledge
of the Celtic language Finding it inconvenient to
take Ireland with him. he left the Emerald isle and
came to America, afterwards going to Portland. He
has been providing the humor for the editorial page
of the Oregonian, occasionally going out to inter,
view some foreign visitor.
Not long ago Jones ran across mermaid down
on the Portland waterfront. The mermaid had
climbed or howen up to the wharf and was compla-
Gently regarding herself in the silvery Willamette
when Jones came seng. 1t appears from the nara
tive that the mermaid belonged in American waters
for we have her assurance thanks to JONES' that she
ladn t seen Neptune for long time, because Nep,
as Jones sfamiary calls him, spends most OF his
time in the Mediterranean. Jones admits he had
aever before seen any mermaids, but that did not
deter him. He confidently approached the visitor
and without the slightest hesitation proceeded to con-
verse with her in her strange language he even
induced her to remain on the wharf while he sent
for Lutte Pease to come down and make the neces-
sary Photographs An animated conversation en-
sued and appears duly recorded over Jones sigma
ture.
Now, that's what we call good newspaper work.
Ninety-nine out Of every 100 newspaper writers on
earth would have squaked at the very sight OF the
mermaid, and not one in million would have been
capable of speaking her language. Yet Jones, with
rare foresight told her that she had pretty hair and
that her scales were on straight and otherwise con-
ned her into waiting for Pease, who showed up with
his camera in due time This was indeed rare
newspaper feat, beside which John Fleming Wilson

There are, according to Leslie's, about 2OO,OOO
doctors in the United States or about for every
$50 people It has been approximately estimated
that the average yearly income of these men is
$3.50 or that the public in the country pays $3.50,
100000 annually for medical attendance, emitting
entirely the money spent for patent medicines which
brings millions of dollars to manufacturers, or the
amounts spent for Doctors prescriptions or paid to
ouacks and commercial doctors. The, preparation

standing in the profession. means an expense OF.

People are remarking how eager
politicians are this year for office.
Even delegateship to convention
seems to be better than nothing, and
it is becoming more and more APP
parent that there is not going to be
enough of these official plums to go

causes people to make such strenuous

Or is it because the public servant,

that business than at any other?
To a fellow who has neither part
nor lot in the matter, and who has
taken some trouble to study the pro-

THE COUNTY FAIR.

We are pleased to see that our
friends, the people of Parowan, have
taken up the matter of the county
fair, and that although late in the
season, this matter is not to be ne
elected. 1t would be very gratifying
and contribute greatly to the success
of the occasion if every settlement in
the county would take lively interest
in this proposition and each do its
full share towards making this move
complete success. These county
fairs are, or should be, in the inter
est of the agricultural development of
the county, and every citizen that has
produced anything that would con
tribute to the encouragement of his
neighbors in the building up of the
country, should see to it that such
product is on exhibition. Especially
do we urge the people of Cedar to
come TO the front with their exhibits.
I'm the past it has been the case that
when the fair has been held in Paro-
wan, but little il any interest has
been manifested by the people of the
southern end of the county, while
when the fair has been held in Cedar
there have been but few exhibits from
the northern end of the county.
Although justice compls us to say
that the northern end of the county
has taken more interest in the fairs
that have been held here, in the way
of exhibits, than we have taken in
those that have been held there.
There is one Objectionable feature
that is always in evidenc at these
fairs, to greater or less extent, and
that is the gambling that is carried
on under the head of horse racing
and other things In that line. 1t
x~sspears-to us that the object of these
fairs Is To show to each other what our
county is capable of producing in the
way of agriculture, horticulture,
livestock, mechanics and manufac
turtles, and the feature of the occa-
sion denominated sports, is merely an
incidental, introduced for the amuse-
ment of the less thoughtful, and less
responsible members of the commun-
ity. We are not prepared to suggest
any sovereign remedy for the evil of
gambling that always is in evidence
in connection with these sports, but
we certainly think that every means
should be taken to discourage it..

Yet in the one case many people
would condone the act, while in the
other they would praise it.

The Deseret Farmer comes to hand
this week and is welcome visitor.
1t is little fellow, but of good
quality, and like Smiths baby, has
plenty of room to grow. Every
farmer in Iron county ought to have
this paper, for it is the one farm pa
per in the United States that will be
likely to treat on the sort of agricul-
ture that will be practicable ON an
extensive scale in this county
Water is too scarce to enable our
farmers to have large irrigated farms,
and the arid farm, therefore, is the
only sort that can be extensively cul-
tivated, and these men who are be-
hind the Deseret Farmer are the very
men who are making speciality of
that business, and they will be sure to
want to talk about it and tell how it
is done, in the paper. If they can
write as Interestingly on the subject
as they can talk, the paper will be
we'll worth reading and the dollar it
costs will be we'll invested.

This summer seems to be record
breaker in the line of floods and ac-
cidents from lightning in Utah.
From all parts of the state we learn
of these casualties. A late number
of the Mt. Pleasant Pyramid tells, in
addition to the loss of hundreds of
dollars worth of property, 81 the
killing of number of animals by
being struck by lightning, and the
destruction of barn containing fifty
tons of hay, which was burned. The
Fairview Telephone company also
suffered much loss to their line by
the destruction of poles and wires.
But the most serious result of the
storm priod in that part of the state,
as far as we have heard, was the death
of James w. Crisp, we'll known
citizen of Spring City, Sanpete coun-
ty, who was crushed to death under
the wheel of his self binder, due to
his team becoming frightend by an
unusually loud clap of thunder. II
appears that he had been cutting
grain and was obliged to suspend
operations on account of sudden
heavy shower of rain, and had gone
to the heads of his horses to try tc
quiet them, as they were very much
frightened, when an extra loud clar
of thunder caused them to break away
from all restraint and dash over the
driver, trampling him under theii
feet and dragging the binder directly
over his body. He did from mis- in
| juries an hour later.
