the fine by giving him dime each.
The subscription was limited to ten
cents, that more might express them

There has been many contests for
government claims in the Artesian
neighborhood recently and citizens
blame Attorney Atkeson for starting
them. They consider that the con-

NEW ZEALAND PROVIDES FOR
SHIPWRECKED SAILORS.

When the French bark Aniou was
wrecked on Cape Briscoe, Aukland
islands, some time ago, the members
Of the castaway crew would doubt
less have found themselves in sore
straits but for wise provision of the
New Zealand government.
AS 1t was the wrecked mariners
found ample provisions of food,
clothing and other supplies at the
point where they went ashore,
This illustrates a new policy of the
government of that country, which
has established supplies for the bene-
fit of wrecked sailors at various
dangerous points along the coast,
Depots for wrecked mariners are
maintained by the New Zealand gov
ernment on the Auckland, Campbell,
Antipodes, Bounty, Kermadec and
Shares island. The following loca-
tions of the depots are furnished by
the United States consulate at AUX
land.
Aukland island--A depot is placed
ON the south side of Erebus Cove,
Port Ross and anothed in Camp Cove

head of Norman inlet One boat is
placed on the northwest end of Ad-
ans island, another on Enderby is
land and another on Rose island
Campbell Island--A depot is erect
ed in Tucker cove, Perseverance har-
Dor. and a boat has been placed at
the head OF the harbor.

WHO HELPS THE COUNTRY.

The question of saving the vacant
government lands of the west for ac-
tual settlers is now agitating the east
as never before.
The Oregon land fraud cases have
attained a world wide fame, and con-
gressmen in the eastern states who
have never allowed their minds to
wander to the Pacific coast before,
are now wondering what shall be done
with the remnant of the public do
main
Magazines, newspapers. public men
and officials are now directing their
attention to the public land issue, and
some interesting legislation will be
passed by the next few sessions of
congress, it is thought
The following from the New York
World, is an evidence of the interest
that is now being taken in the sub
ject in the east. The World says, in
arguing for the small settler against
the land grabber:
Ex-senator John NJ. Thurston Of
Nebraska, in seeking to excuse his
client, Senator Mitchell of Oregon, for
helping thieves steal public lands,
says that the fraudulent land COM
panies develop the country as the
homesteader who takes up his 100
acres cannot.
Theft is not excused by the use of
the stolen property to public advan-
tage. But in this case that is not the
situation.
The man who honestly takes up
land and works it supplies freight to
the railroads, helps pay taxes support
the schools and furnish the village
grocer with trade. He is the man to
whom the west looks for development.
The thief who robs the nation of
public land and either strips the tim
ber or holds it idle for future profit
retards the material development OF
the country as truly as he assails its
moral integrity.

WILL BE \ MODEL CITY.

The announcement that the Coop
erative Christian federation of Port
land, will found a model city, as nu-
cleus for their great Industrial under
taking in the Willamette valley, adds
interest to that project.
If the federation secures sufficient
capital it can do just what it wishes,
in the way of improvements, and as
it's ideal seems to be on high order
its progress will be closely watched.
Its model city as now planned will
be builded upon strictly scientific and
humanitarian lines. The manufac-
turing and residence portions will be
separated so no smoke Will mar the
comforts of home life. Schools and
churches and city parks will be set
aside in selected spots outside of the
business districts and everything pos
slble will be done TO place all public
institutions of this kind at the best
possible advantage.
This is the most important and far
reaching industrial movement ever
started in the west and will be watch
ed by the world with increasted in
terest.

WHIsKEY CONSUMPTION.

There are some Interesting figures
on the consumption of alcoholic and
malt liquors in the United States in
tho report just issued on that subject
by the commissioner Of internal rev.
enue. The statistics show decided
falling off in the use OF whiskey and,
while there is an increase in beer con-
sumption, 1t is not in proportion to the
increase in previous years.
In the fiscal year 1905 citizens Of
the Uniter States drank 116,143,732
gallons of whiskey a decrease Of
$4,000 gallons as compared with the
fiscal year 1904. In 1904 the increase
compared with 1902 was $3.50, 900
gallons, And that was a small in
creace compared with previous years,
for the average annual increase for 10
year has been in excess OF 1000 900
gallons annually.
The consumption of beer in 1905
shows an increase of 3s,0OO,OOO gal
Ions over 1904, but the average annual
Increase in beer is upwards OF TO-
100000. SO the beer habit is loosen
ening its hold to an appreciatiable ex-
tent. In 1905, 1.53S.245,74O gallons
Of beer were consumed. In 1904 the
consumption was 1.494,452,12S gal
Ions.
1t is stated that the decrease in
whiskey consumption and the slight

RESERVES AND THE ARMY.

There is a curious inadequacy about
the reported plan Of the war depart
ment to establish by a double system
of reserves what will amount to q
standing army of 100000 soldiers.
The army as now provided may be
of $4,000 men. It is suggested that
10000 more might be enlisted as a
regular reserve" subject to national
call and drawing, say SO each a
month. Then there could be ma
tional reserve" of 100000 men giving
their addresses to the department and
drawing as much as 50 per year while
they waited for war. The states mill
itia would complete the quarter
million.
The New York World says If we
are going to be thus lavish in prepara-
tions for wars we do not want. let us
by all means go the whole length. To
the national reserve" let us tack a
"schoolboy reserve" half a million
strong, with nice. new silver half
dollar coming to each enlisted lad at
annual muster.
Then next in the scale there should
be nursery reserve" its ranks to be
filled by baby boys under two years of
age, the recompence for his brief ser
vice to be a finely mounted teething-
ring for each little man.
We can imagine only confusion to
any possible foe of a country thus six
times guarded.

Sometimes had no bed;
