Greatest Wireless Station.

The greatest wireless station in the world is soon to rise near New York city. It is known as fve-way station; III other words. it will transmit and receive long distance wireless messages in live directions at the same time. The great masts which raise the naennae to the skies vii be $50 feet in height or 100 feet higher than the Washington monument. Messages will be transmitted at once to England and Central Europe to South America the South seas and to the Pa cific coast and Japan. The station will be capable of sending 300 words out and re- ceiving 800 words every minute. Mes sages may be sent from the great station for 10 900 miles. The power of the send- ing apparatus will be so great that the radio messages Will penetrate the most difficult weather and static conditions for thousands of miles.

 Concealed beneath the mass of lies there may be some truth Mccarthy added. If there be, let me say that there will be further investigation to develop it."

BIRDS HAVE YANKEE ACCENT
Londoners Complain That Imported Parrots Are Spelling the Pronun-
 citation of Their Fellows.

The American accent has invaded even the parrot house at the geological gardens here, according to a London corrpspondent of the Detroit News.
 A large consignment of birds has arrived from America. Many have names that suggest cocktails. 1iither- to scientists may have doubted the ability of cockatooS to acquire a rec ognizabIe accent, but two of these birds fresh from the New York zoo speak unmistakable American.
 They ask repeatedly for "clam oysters on a half shell" and beg their amused visitors for hominy or Cali fornia peanuts. Sometimes in an out burst of patriotism they repeat "Cali- fornia" until it would appear that it is the only word in their vocabulary. And now very small green parrot in the cage next door is trying to say "California,' too.
 A diSgusted keeper stands outside his cage saying London, London, London" but the small green parrot does not seem to admire his accent so much as that of his feathered trans atlantic friends.

terial resources of the south Mean while, by inexcusable errors of the Democratic party, and especially of Democratic diplomacy, we lost that vast tract on the north known as British Columbia, the possession of which, after the acquisition of Alaska, would have given the United States continuous frontage on the Pacific coast from the south line of California to Bering's straits.'
 Not much was said in the eos of the material value of the more than half million square miles of terri tory acquired. The idea that the west was, and always would be, ar irreclamable wilderness persisted Not even Secretary Seward himself in all probability sensed the mate rial worth of the vast region that we bought for a proverbial song.

THE PURCHASE OF ALASKA

A correspondent of the Portland Or egonian asks: What were the cir cumstances leading to the purchase of Alaska by the United States?' Why did we buy country that we did not want?" The questions invite inspec- tion of an interesting period in the internal and diplomatic history of this country.
 Tho Alaska purchase, consum- mated despite the opposition of prob- ably the predominating body of pub lie opinion in the United States in that time, was largely the product of the foresight of William H. Seward, secretary of state during and for some time after the civil war. It had been boached prior to that time, however. Frederick w. Sew ard, son of William H. Seward and himself assistant secretary of state under his father from 1861 until 1869, says in his "reminiscences that the suggestion had been made as early as during the Oregon debate in 1S46-47, that by insisting on the boundary line of 54 degrees 40 min utes, and obtaining a cession from the Emperor Nicholas, the United States might own the whole Pacific coast up to the Arctic circle. ''But the slave-holding interest, then domi- nant in the federal councils" says the younger. Seward, "wanted south ern, not northern, extension" So the demand for 50-40 was aban- doned, and so for the time being was the Alaska question shelved. A change of policy came with the vic tory of the union in the war Pur chase of Alaska, too late to make it part of continuous coast line, nev- ertheless set new precedent in ex pansion. James G. Blaine, in his Twenty Years of Congress" says that looking northward for terri tory, instead of southward, was radical change of policy in the con. duct of the government policy which, happily and appropriately, it was the good fortune of MT. Seward to initiate under impressive and sig nificant circumstances"
 Purchase was part of our effort to atone for the error made in not insisting on the more northern boundary line; in part it was the re- suit of tactical observations made dur ing the civil war, which revealed the strategic disadvantages of being with out naval outposts in the West Indies and the North Pacific If it was not salso a formal expression of national gratitude for assistance extended by the Russian government at critical period of the war, that assistance at least had the effect of quieting opposi- sition to the deal General Banks, chairman of the committee on foreign affairs of the house when the appro- priation bill was under debate, urged the appropriation with great earnestness, not only because of the obligation imposed on the govern ment by the treaty, previously en- tered into, and not merely because of the intrinsic value of the territory,
