a SENSIBLE OPINION REGARDING
The POLAR CONTROVERSY Raymond
LestOnnet, of Paris, q member of the
Superior Council OF Navigation, .cx-
presses the most probable solution
of the contested honor of DISCOVERY
OF the North Pole. He says that the
difficulty of ascertaining the position
of high polar attitudes make it neces-
sary to handle all instruments with
mutiied fingers, and together with
the refration of the rays of the sun,
make accurate use of the SeXtant
almost impossible. He thought the
dash to the pole of little scientific
value. The real secrets will be found
at the magnetic pole, where the study
of conditions might furnish impor-
tant indications of the physical pro-
perties of the globe 1t is probable
that the true pole is covered with an
immense expansure of shifting snow
and ice with no landmarks" what
ever, as such, to indicate the exact
spot where the rotary motion begins.
The use of magnetic instruments, it
will be readily seen, are necessarily
as inaccurate as the quantive philo-
sOphical instrument that records with
absolute accuracy the position of
other places on Earth surface.

THE RELATIVE RELIABILITY OF
CHINKs AND JAPs.-Mr. William J..
Mccarthy, who has spent the greater
part of his active life in California,
has had good opportunity of study
ing the characteristics of Orientals.
He lately observed that the Chinese
are much more trustworthy than the
Japs; the former will keep their
promises, while the latter race, when
in contact with Western civilization,
are frequently just as ready to vio-
late their agreements as they are
ready to make them. If q Chinaman
promises to pay debt, he will keep
his promise; while the Jap will de-
fault or bubble. According to Mr..
McCarthy's account. the Japs en-
gagged in business in San Francisco
have great liking for the State in
solvency laws, after reaching the
limit of their capacity in the matter
of becoming involved in debt.

The tariff on wool and woolens is de-

Never Vet was comfort trlt in payment

based upon his net income. In our
own community we have ample evil
dcnce of the true meaning of the
word comfort when the excessive dis
comfort Of taXpaying leads not only
to loss of property but a constant
fight for the bare means of sub
sistance, and to pay the costs of
COVE rnnent that means much more
to the man who has property to pro-

man of wealth to give this assurance

EASY LIFE OF THE TAX-E.ATERs.
The Oregonian is concerning itself
about the idleness of the courts in
our neighboring State, and claims
the more Judges with higher salaries,
the longer the vacations on the part
of the judiciary, which is accompa-
MED by less work by her courts.
That paper knows that Multnomah
county has five Circuit Judges who
are much afflicted with the vacation
complaint, but is this great journal
aware that Seattle has seven Su-
perior Court Judges, and also special
Judges, to relieve the court dockets,

part of the King county press, so far

How many readers of fiction have
ever heard of George Manville Fem
an English author who wrote over
$50 novels and boys stories, and more
than 4 thousand short tales and
sketches. He lately died at the age
of 7S, without having attained a
memory OF himself or his works. In
literature. it is quality and not guam
tity that counts. His opportunity
was not lacking. In 1863 he had a
story accepted by Charles Dickens,
then editing III the Icor Ro"nd, and
as it was the beginning of his liter
airy work, should have been a prOpi-
tiOus launch into the sea of litera-
ture, had there been sail or rudder.

THE human mind may be likened

planted therein, the fruitage will be

pernicious. If left alone, weeds will

requite in order to develope the
highest possibilities of manhood and
