SEND CORN TO JAPAN.

We should make use of the enormous "superfiux' of our corn crop to ship so much of 1t as may be needed direct to Japan, together with instructions how to prepare t for the use of the sufferers. In this way we shall not only be applying the most immediate relief to the immediate distress, we shall also be laying the foundations of a great trade, which will increase as Japan becomes less and less an exclu- sively agricultural nation and more and more 2 manufacturing nation New York Times.

A PARROT OF EVIL REPUTATION.

The Kea parrot of New Zealand is a very curious bird. For many years it has been charged with killing sheep by pecking holes in their sides, and this alleged fact has been recorded in many works on OrnithOlOgy and natural his tory. Accordingly, as the Kea is n danger of eXtermination, an investi- gation was recently undertaken to de- termine whether this bird really de-
 served it's evil reputation. No evidence could be found to warrant the state ment, and it was thought to be based entirely upon the curiosity which t manifests in looking over the carcass es of dead animals.-Harper's Weekly.

TOM WORD WILL
 CONTEST ELECTION

Tom Word, formerly of Skagway who, according to the official returns was defeated for reelection as sheriff of Multnomah county, Oregon, by five votes, has brought suit to contest the election.
 The Oregonians says;
 "Henry E. McGnu and w. T. Vaughn, attorneys for Sheriff Word, filed the complaint in the election con- test yesterday morning. In the com plaint 1t is alleged that errors and ir- regularities in the count of the ballots were made in practically every pre- cint in the county, and that in reality Word has a plurality of 405 votes over Stevens. It states that the vote tor Word should be 9505 instead of 9255, as the official returns show, and that the vote for Stevens should be 9Ol0 instead of 926O. This would give Word a plurality of of 495 votes.

Sitka Cablegram Suspends-- Robinson Goes to Juneau

The Sitka Cablegram, during it:
 short life time one ot Alaska's bright
 est newspapers, has suspended publica
 tion, and H. W. Robinson. it's editor manager and staff will go to Juneau where he will be associated with the Juneau Dispatch.
 The Cablegram tells the story of it's giving up the ghost ir the following manner:
 Ut is with genuine regret that the Cablegram announces 1t will cease pub hcation with this issue. The reason for this action is simply that the rev. enue of the paper is not 8 fair return for the labor expended on it. For four teen months one man has done all the work of the ofice-reporting, editing, type setting, press work s-d job work. To accomplish all these duties it has been necessary to put in seventeen hours a day seven days in the week. Such work demands commensurate re- turns, and as they have not been forth coming the journalistic field of Sitka is l. sOrrowfully and teuderly relinQuished l t0stne CsbIegram'S venerable contem- pOrary,
 "The Cablegram hls worked early | and lale for Sitka and is one of the most widely copied papers in the terri tory. It started and did most of the work in the movement that now makes things look as though the capital would remain here, It has made Chicagoff almost aS familiar word in Nome as it is on Lincoln street. It has changed the attitude of the Ala'ka press toward Sitka from one of ridicuIe to one of respect. It now goes to the newspaper grave yard with the complacent grin that speaks beiet that it has done it's best. Its soul goes to - take your choice according to your residencel to take a seat at the right hand of the editor Of the Juneau Dispatch" ."
