A FILIPINO "SwAMP-ANGEL. -
The most powerful cannon in exist
ence is the army 16-inch gun at
Sandy Hook, mounted on tempo
rary carriage used for its trials. The
Scientific american Of the 9Th inst.
says that it has been proposed to
ship the gun to the Philippines, and
mount it in the Notifications which
are now being built at Corregidor
Island for tho defense Of Manila.
The Finch gun is not able to COM
pletely command the channel; but
the l6-inch gun could strike blow,
even at a distance of 1000 feet,
which, if it got fairly home, would
probably disable any modern battle
ship. Although there is no likeli-
hood of another 16-inch gun being
built, this costly weapon should at
least be mounted in some position
where it can render effective service.

Tax Sales.

Chapter 1853 Session Laws 1863
amends section -. chapter al Laws
OF Washington 1899. providing for
the taking of judgments against de-
linuucnt owners of real property
for unpaid taxes.
This late law provides for giving
the record owner notice on the part
of the County Treasurer before deed
Sha,. issue. The manner in which
notice shall be given is left to con
lecture whether one hour, one day,
or ten days, before the appointed
time for the sale. The Treasurer has
the power to select the date. provid-
cd notice shall be given before the
time Of sale. In case the owner is
unknown, the notice shall be posted
at some public place at the court
house. This, like a great many
other pieces Of bungling legislation,
NAV require at least couple of other
statutes, in 1911 and 1913, to eX-
plain. and in turn the latest enact
ments doubtless will have TO follow
the same course. Then there will
come the construction process by
the courts, who may themselves have
to do some legislation in order to
make the application. Great is the
science of law making!
That Roman Emperor who re-
quired the laws to be written in fine
characters, and then placed on a
high pole whereby it became next to
impossible for the subjects to read
them, was not more absurd than the
modern methods of indifference and
indetiniteneSs. 1t would seem our
Governor ought to be able to detect
palpable omissions in bills before
signing them.

TwEEDLEDrM AND TwEEDLEDEE-
What could the last Legislature be
thinking about when it appropriated
$50. 900 for entertainment of the
irrigation Congress at Spokane, next
August? II the members did not
know, it is evident that the exploit
ers of the bill knew of an easy way to
reach certain deficiencies, not in
cluded in the general plan for finger
ing the State sack. - Spokane has
been paying off q bunch OF old bills,
doubtless many of them trumped up,
for clerk hire. and travelling expenses
of the bOard-but whether it is in
form of a " tiat-rate' system, q Ia
Schively, or actual expenses, is not
stated, but Attorney General Bell
gives orders that they be paid, if
properly signed. If this is not as
much a violation of the spirit of the
law. as the Schively sharp practice, a
new term will have to be adopted to
describe acts that describe a perver-
sion of public funds, or rather to pay
a debt rather than for services TO be
performed, principle already under
ban of law with penalties. 1t does
seem that it takes much law to keep
our Republican neighbOrs in proper
restraint, and then they keep kicking
over the traces despite the applca-
ton of both whip and spur. Auditor
Clausen, to his credit be it said, sus-
pended payment of these prearranged
charges, and the warrants were not
issued till this very complaisant Of
fetal Bell sounded.
AN ALLIANCE THAT WOULD ENSURE
WORLDWIDE PEACE.-It is said that
negotiations are under way for an al
lance between mother England and
the United States, in which it is pro-
posed that the fleet of the United
States shall look after the interests
of both countries on the Pacific, in
return for similar protection by the
British feet on the Atlantic and in
the Mediterranean. 1t is obvious
that such powerful combination
would annihilate the idea of Japanese
supremacy of the seas of the Pacific,
and put a curb-bit on the aggressive
ness of Germany and her ambitious
naval plans on the Atlantic, includ-
ing invasion of Great Britain. Such
an alliance would be all-powerful and
keep the world at peace for a long
period. 1t is quite evident that the
Anglo Saxon will have to make a
combination to maintain the suprem-
acy already attained, as well rs
that it may be beneficial to both
nations and operate to promote the
best interests of peace, progress and
the welfare of humanity.

HONEST THIEVES. - Mrs. George
Sheets, to whom reference was made

ago, as losing a package of currency
notes, amounting to $1,000, which
she had concealed beneath the mat
trass of her bed. sent by her husband
in Duluth for investment in realty,
in Seattle, last Tuesday received IA
package by mail containing 1000
in currency. the same money which
the thieves had stolen during tempo

With it was a letter signed 1.-Two
Thieves" in which it was stated
that they had need for only 50 900 to
furnish a home, and had no use for
the money returned.
