Partisan Preachers.
There IS u preacher in Seattle
aaoNn as DR. Matthew'S, whose
m4iu object in life seems 10 be to
pose as censor of public morals in
many ways that d not seem to be

Territorial g)yerument. and worked
80 well a. to receive concentrations
from everybody, excepting those hay

the con1ensu5 of opinion that wo-
men made Intelligent voters, fair
ard impartial jurors and honest
custo.iians of public interests in

their possession, or under their con
troll. The law was pronounced IN
constitutional by divided Supreme
Court, On appeal Of Henry Morgan.
a boss gambler, upon the contention
that women had no right to sit on a
jury because the law granting them
the privilege had not been given the
rigut title. This defect was cured
by the succeeding legislature, when
a fiXed-up issue was brought soon as
details could be arranged under a
succeeding election, wherein Nevada
Bloomer, saloon-keeper's wife, was
used as cat S. paw to sue the Ter
ritory for depriving her of her vote,
placing the DAMAGES at S., 900. Here
again the same judicial machinery
was used to disfranchise women.
1t was claimed that the word citi-
zens, in the Organic Act, meant
male citizens, as at the time it was
enacted the demand for the ballot
had not arisen to a degree that
would extend the meaning OF citizen
to include the political right of suf-
frage.
1t seems little strange that this
Doctor of Divinity can so readily
decide constitutional questions that
caused the learned Judges such a
mighty twist OF conscience to pre-
sent an apparently plausible pretext
to Justify their action, but it seems
he has accomplished the difficult feat.
FURTHER REVISION OF THE BIBLE
A conference of clergyman and editors
for the purpose of arranging ten
centenary edition of the English Bible
that has been in session at Prince
ton, N. j.. for some time, has adj
journed. The purpose has been to
bring out a new version of King
James version, correcting obsolete
words and those of doubtful meaning
When a is misleading, it has been
changed. For example, the word
damnation" in l Corinthians XII.
20 has been changed to condemna-
ton. Where the authorized version
has an obscure reading of a passage,
sufficiently clear in the Hebrew OF
Greek text, this has been changed in
several instance, also when the an.
thorized revision is infelicitious in
the choice OF Engligh words, even il
not actually misleading. Words alb
solutely obsolete have been exchanged
for words now within the usage oil
good writer's. The point was dis.
cussed that halt" is still good En-.
glish, and while not so common, is
more digniied than limp" The
word let" for hinder" was con.
sidered obsolete. 1t was learned that
there had been considerable agitation
for a revision of the Bible.

Washington. to indicate the most
available points for foreign com
merce, and while we can excuse the
error of placing Olympia almost on
the borderiine, near the point which
came near causing trouble between
Johnny Bull and Uncle Sam over
some international hogs, it is the
only city shown on Puget Sound

Straits of Fuca. All hail, say we to
Elias Payne! 1t shows that his

UNCLE SAM" is quite peculiar in
his qualification exactions in the
postal service. He wants an office
clerk and carrier, but age limits are
from II to 35 years on the day OF
examination, and married men will
not be admitted. This prohibition
does not apply, however, to divorced
women or those who are separate
from their husbands and support
themselves. but they are eligible only
for clerks. Applicants must be phys
ically sound and male applicants
must be not less than 5 feet inches
in height and weigh not less than
125 pounds without overcoat or hat.
Application blanks may be had at
postoffice.

ton in the fact that the Seattle
Time has ceased its invective and

reputation of that paper is such that
people form opinions from its acts
rather than the opinions it express

ATTORNEY-GENERA ASSAILED
BY REPRESENTATIVE MARTIN

Washington, March 25.-..The former
head of the sugar trust is now at the
head Of the Department of Justice. and
under his administration the Philip
pines are being exploited declared
Representative Martin, Of Colorado, in
addressing the House to-day on the
subject of the T'riar lands Of the
Philippine Islands.
Mr.. Martin referred to his resolution
for an investigation into the acts OF
the Acknowledgement, which was re-
2ferrcd to the Committee on Rules. and
said a mere inquiry into the reasons
of the Attorney General for his opin>
ion a 8 to the amount Of sugar land a
corporation could own und eriSthe act
of Congress would not be sufficient.
The inquiry, he said. would have to
go into the facts bearing upon these
matters.
Il. In spite OF what he claimed was the
plain meaning Of the act relating to
the F'riar lands. tho Attorncy-Gener
had rendered an opinion that there
was no such limitation in the case OF
corporations purchasing sugar lands IN
the islands.
II there was to be no limitation in
the amount Of land owned by corpora
lions in the Philippines. Mr.. Martin
said, Congress should amend the law
and permit It's amendment by means
OF an opinion by the Attorney-.G General.
The chief beneficiary Of free trade
between tho United States. and the
philippine Islands. hc declared, was
the sugar trust.
Concluding his remarks, Mr.. Martin
said these matters having been
brought to the attention Of Congress
i notice should be taken OF them.
the sugar trust would plead in
court at some future day that this
silence was acquiescence on the parti|
Or Congress with the opinion rendered
by the Attorney-G General.
