No Instructions Yet

Inquiry at the Astoria postomee
elicits the fact that no instructions
have been received there as to the
reported new ruling of the depart
ment in relation to mutilated stamps
and their refusal by the postal au'
thorities, save as they have always
existed. Deputy Postmaster Hell
born does not know OF the issuance
of such order, though il may have beer
made and not yet reached this office
So he was unable to say whether tht
Government intended to redeem mtl
tilatd stamps where they we're no
wantonly torn or defaced.

last evening on the 6:l0 express, arm

They will stop in the metropolis Tor
today, to try case in the federal
court, and at the earliest moment
possible will leave there for their old
home up the Willamette Valley, to
hunt pheasants for the balance OF the
week. They expect to be back by
Monday, but have made no promises
as to the distribution Of the game
they will bring home, which may be
just as we'll, considering the wide
range of friends amenable to supply
here.

 The election of Wie&ersham is gener- ely conceded. It IS hardly possible that the small voting precincts yet to be heard from will materially change the result. Delegate Wiekersham will have an awful job making good his numerous promises.
 J.C. Mcbride, Alaska Commissioners for the Seattle expedition, has appoint cd the following assistants: J. J.. Underwood, of Nome, for Seward peninsula; George KostrometinoH oE Sitka, for Southwest Alaska; and Percy Pond, of Juneau, for Southeastern Alaska.
 The records of the district court at Skagway during the last session show that there has been good clean up work done for Douglas. 4 bunch of toughs who have been torment to the town and who have been lowering on the verge of the penitentiary for years was broken up and given senten- ces tbat aggregate g years, which will hold them for a while.
 The brethren of the press over in Juneau are falling into error and if they don't call halt pretty soon some one will get hurt. 4 mau who has the gall and audicity to run a newspaper in Alaska should have a skin as thick as 8 plank so that the sliugs and arrows of A jealous competitor might not pene- rrate it. Editors should follow the ex- ample of the lawyers who fight and quarrel all day in the courts and spend the night drinking beer together.
 The city council has decided to es- tablish as a branch of the government of the oity a Department of Vital Statistics. Records will be kept of the births, deaths and marriages on the Island. That these records may be complete it will be necessary to have the cooperation of not only part but all of the people of the leland. It is to be hoped that everyone will real ize the importance of this step. There is no other provision in Alaska for keeping such records except that which is provided in the municipalities, and in years to como their value will be inestimsble.
