The reign of terror which for the
past few days has prevailed in the
city of Odessa, Russia's southern sea-
port, which seems to be the storm
center of the revolution which now
threatens the existence of the Slay
government. is a matter of especial
interest to at least one man in Boise,
and the progress of the uprising in
the dominion OF the czar is being
watched very closely by him, says the
Statesman.
H. n. ELLINGTON, one of the we'll
known business men of Boise. was
once a sailor. and under the British
flag before the day of the modern
ocean going steamship had occasion
to visit almost all quarters of the
globe. There are few important sea-
port cities in the world that he has
not seen, and there is none with which
he is, or was, more familiar than
Odessa.
The news of the convulsion that is
now shaking that city recalls to MIR.
ELLINGTON the appearance of the place
when he last visited It in 1850.
at was one of the prettiest cities
in the world" said Mr. ELLINGTON.
"and seen from a distance of a few
miles out on approaching it. was one
of surprising beauty. The place then
must have had population of 800, 200
or more inhabitants, and of course II
is much larger today. 1t was then
and still is one of the great shipping
centers of the world There were then
to be seen in its spacious harbor the
ships of all nations and few more in
teresting scenes were to be found
anywhere in the world.
Along the sea coast on either side
of the city there are immense stretches
of almost level agricultural land. but
the city itself is built on the side of n
bluff or mountain rising gradually
from the coast. The higher parts OF
the town can be seen from consid-
cradle distance out at sea, and the
sight is one not to be forgotten. On
closer view the place loses nothing OF
its attractiveness.

houses, for the most part two and

Archbishop Thompson was greatly
surprised when he was given the arch
diocese Of York. He had been suffering
acutely from toothache and upon med
ical advice had resorted to narcotics.
After a particularly bad night he set
out fer his doctor, though his wife had
besought him not to submit to further
narcotics, as after them he was mot
himself for some hours. On the way
he met the postman. who handed him
a letter announcing his preferment
from Gloucester to York. He rushed
back and burst excitedly into the
house, the toothache all forgotten. "Zoe,

to the office of the secretary of the
Interior, whose clerks and private
secretary take a few cracks at It.
Then II is ready for the sender.
The above rigamarole, which is
literally true, accounts for the delay
in hearing from the departments.
The business of the interior depart
ment, for example, in many of Its
bureaus is over a year behind, and
some departments are over two years
back.
Congressman James Tawney has a
constituent who tried for three
months to get simple matter OF bus
iness through the interior department.
He failed to get any satisfaction, and
finally hired a lawyer in Washington
to 30 and look it up. 1t was transact
ed in 10 minutes
\ special class OF quasi-lawyers has
grown up about the big government
departments, whose entire business is
practice before the departments" In
simple terms, this means getting
through the red tape barrier
For the man who has any real bus
mess of Importance to transact with
the government department 1t is
cheaper in the long run to pay one
of these alleged experts to go and do
1t for him.
The principal asset of the man who
practices before the departments is
knowing the man to see. In addition,
he may also have an acquaintance
with a few chiefs or heads of bureaus
and it is not impossible that he d.
vides the spoils with somebody. 1t
is the business of the chief to make
things difficult, and of the depart
ment attorney to use his pull to ease
them up again.
Heads of scientific bureaus write
articles for popular magazines, using
government time and material for
the purpose. In some of the depart
ments there is considerable traffic
by subordinates in Information"
The departments are honeycombed
with petty jealousies, and many of the
small chiefs spend the greater part
of their energies scheming with the
politicians for their own preferment
and the downfall of others who seem
/ to trespass on their little domains.
If President Roosevelt unwinds al
the red tape of the Washington de.
partments he will do a bigger stun
than lassoing all the trusts.-Wil

zone of the first features of the
city to be seen on coming into port are
the domes of the many churches OF
the city. These are all Of unburnishqd
copper, and numerous as they are they
strike the incoming traveller as some
thing novel as we'll as beautiful. The
churches are all of the orthodox
Greek denomination, for there is not
the diversity in matters religious in
Russia that is to be found in most
other countries"
The interminable red tape and al
most endless tribute demands of the
authorities of the city and Russian
government are things that Mr.. Elk
ington remembers particularly.
ITO do business with the Russians, -
he says, you must have your hands
in your pockets and be in a generous
frame of mind from the moment you
come into sight of the city. The first
thing that would happen on reaching
port was visit from some city OF
government official. who invariably
expects a generous allowance of rum
or some other contribution before you
are allowed to proceed, and before q
ship coming in with a cargo could un.
load. a good many other dignitaries
great and small. had to be encoun'
tered and similarly treated. The
thing was a nuisance, but when wa.

around it,"

BETTER ALASKAN SERVICE.
Mail Facilities of the North Will BE
Improved.


An additional weekly mail between
Valdez and Fairbanks will be estab-
lished by the postoffice department
next winter, giving Fairbanks two
mails a week in each direction
throughout the winter season, says the
Seattle News.
At the present time there is but one
mail in each direction a week during
the winter. This mail is limited in
amount to 400 pounds per trip and II
has frequently happened that mail
matter in excess of that amount was
left over from one trip to another. The
mail route will add another 400
pounds of matter per week between
the two points, affording assurance
that there will be no delay in the
transmission OF mail matter.
News of the establishment of the
additional service is brought to Seat
tie by John P. Clum, postal inspector
for Alaska. who arrived from New
York yesterday morning and will sail
for the north on the steamship Cot
tage City tomorrow. While in Seattle
Mr.. Clum is a guest of the Hotel
Washington.
During the past winter there was
one mail a week between Valdez and
Tanana via Fairbanks" said Mr.. Clum
yesterday to a reported for the News.
This mail was limited in amount to
400 pounds a trip and mail matter in
excess of that amount had to be left
behind until the next trip. In this
way much mail was delayed from
time to time.
Next year there will be an addi-
tional dispatch from Valdez of a mail
a week for Fairbanks only, of 400
