Trend Toward Temperance.
Cincinnati Enquirer.)

Reports of the liquor commissions operating in Quebec recently published contain matter of inter est to those of us who abide under the blessings of National Prohibition.
 These reports show reduced purchases of alcoholic liquors in 1881 compared to the previous year and a general trend toward beer and wines
 In Alberta, for example, 92 per cent. of the total bulk sales were of beer and stout, with wine lsales computed at 63 900 gallons The commissions were enabled to to the Provincial treasury S 738954 on gross sales of $4678,109, not including licensed beer sales by the glass and bottle. The Domnian Government received in revenue $2,087O00.
 Nova Scotia, whose liquor system is now only two years old made profit for the Province and the Dominion Governments only slightly less than Alberta's.
 Premier Harrington, of Nova Scotia, has this to say of last years figures T am personally per suaded that the people of Nova Scotia have not abused the privilege that has come to them under the Government control law. The Government feels that the report indicates trend toward temper ance and a continuance of this trend, in conJunc- ton with the temperance efforts being now put forth in the schools, should show marked effect within few years
 Alberta Nova Scotia and other Canadian Prov inces fairly tried the Prohibition policy. Their ex- perience was that now being endured in this country Canada deferred to the wishes of majority Of her people abandoned menacng and destructive policy and now is gratefully the way to complete re- cuperation from of the most sinister soclal nightmares of all history

AMERICAS ROYAL PALACE.

Honolulu, capital of the Territory of Hawaii, is the only American city whicii has a royal palace where Kings and Queens once lived and ruled.
 Iolani Palace which still retains all of the ma jestc beauty of its original architecture is utilized today as the executive building of the island gov ernment and will be of the place of historic interest visited by delegates to the Pacific Foreign Trade Convention to be held there May 4. 5. and G.
 What was once the throne room is now the meet ing place of the Territorial House of Representa- tiyes while across the hall the Senate meets in the spacious which, in monarchial days, the palace dining room.
 The throne is but little different today than it was when the last Hawaiian monarch relnquished the scepter, and the islands were annexed to the United States during the closing years of cen- tury. Much of the original furniture remains but the throne itself has been placed in museum along with the crown jewels and other trappings of royalty
 Iolani Palace also contains the offices of the

NORTHWEST FOR PULP AND PAPER
 PROTECTION.

Washington and Oregon are urging that con gress put a protective tariff on pulp and paper to foster the pulp and paper making industries of the Northwest. The Ketchikan Chronicle thinks Alaska ought to join the States down on the Coast in the urge
 This is all right, and if measured by the Amer ican Protection policy in tariff legislation it ought to be. Pulp and paper making is large industry and one that has been slipping away from the United States to Canada and European countries from year to year for a long time
 However several things count against the prob ability of success in the effort In the first place there is the growing feeling that the protective tariff has developed to the point that it has become a boomerang It worked all right in many respects until foreign countries began to levy high tariffs against the Americans. It is generally conceded that our policy of Protection is operating to cause a marked elimination in foreign trade, and the belief is becoming increasingly prevalent that our need for foreign trade is greater than that for uncompetitve prices at home
 Another is that Americans own most of the Canadian pulp and paper manufacturing plants and timber reserves To such extent is this true that the central American pulp and paper manufacturing association had the tmerity to urge that the Government act to prevent the develop ment of pulp and paper making in Alaska to com- pete with the Canadian products Many millions Of American capital will produce people who will ener- getically oppose anything that would curb the shipping of Canadian pulp and paper to the United States. American owned Canadian pulp and paper making plants and timber have been providing the major portion of pulp and paper used in the United States for long time
 Then there is one more element that will operate against the plan of Northwest manufacturer in the premises. That is the circumstance that there are thousands of American newspapers that are inter- ested in cheaper newsprint. They have been so strong that they and other interested people have been able to keep both wood pulp and newsprint on the free list for many years.
 However, united effort on the part of the Northwest in favor of a protective tariff for the growing pulp and paper manufacturers in the North west could not possibly damage the situation and it might work out to advantage The Ketchikan paper is absolutely correct in it's conclusion that the interest of Alaska in this matter is absolutely identical with that of Washington and Oregon.

 Guy de Maupassant, who wrote "A Piece Of String" might have written similar story apous an incident in Central Park Saturday
 Forrest Russell private in the army of the un- empoyed was reposing a rock in the sunshine near the 59th Street and Seventh Avenue entrance to the park Donald Ryan, homeless also asked him for a cigarette
 Forrest lacked the inclination, or who knows the energy to dig into his pocket, and told his friend to do so.
 Some one happened to be looking out of an apartment window acoss the street, saw what ap- peared to be a robbery and turned in a police alarm.
 Radio cruisers and motorcycle policemen desceno- ed upon the siesta in large force before Ryan had finished his smoke
 The two men, says the news report, were locked up for dsorderly conduct for lying on the warm rock lin the sunshine.

untarily and the words released all the longing in her heart. Tt isn't all want! But, David, what else can there be for me?' She said it in the old troubled way of ap- peal to him. With the old gesture she put her hand on his arm.
 He bent swiftly and kissed her hand.
 T love you, Kitty"
 She drew her hand away trem- bling. She put it to her face. I'm afraid, David" Her voice faltered. He saw a deep flush spread from her cheek to her throat. He waited, patiently his eyes caressing her.
 I've missed you awfully.-this year It your net being here made-a difference with every thing. I guess-I do-need you. David! I guess I've always need ed you. What you gave me-
 He drew her gently to him until her shoulder rested in the hollow of his arm. He said no word, content to feel her relax against him, content to see the happiness slowly suffusing her face.
 But David, you ought to go to write that"

The Case of Tilden.
(Miami, Fla, News0

Samuel Tilden twas a political reformer but not revolutionst He was conservatively progressive and believed in the gradual modification of human institutions meet social conditions and altered human needs He destroyed the canal ring up- State and the notorious Tweed ring in New York City"
 This believer in improving, not destroying estab-
 shed institutions served his country in that most difficult period of it's history, the years before during and after the War Between the States. His biographer says "he believed in certain fundamental principles for the direction of organized society and his public career was guided by them. Hence he fought dishonesty in party campaigns and in cleo tionS"
 Tilden the only American to be elected President and yet never to serve as President. He received 250970 popular votes more than Hayes, his opponent, and he was deprived of his electoral majority by trick. It would be hard now to find reputable historian to deny that Tiden not Hayes, was legally elected President in 1876
 In any other republic so clear thwarting ot the national will would have led to revolution. In America it led only. to further proof of Tilden's greatness Rather than see his country thrown into disorder he insisted on letting the fraudulent de- cision stand For his self -abnegaton he stands forth unquestioned of the greatest of the elected Presidents of the United States.
 We wish there were such men in public life in the present difficult period.
 There are. The next generation will be able to recognize them. His own generation regarded Samuel Tilden just another politician.

 Tt seems to me you are look ing particularly well, Mrs. Frew. ,
 They drove swiftly out of the city, and into russet brown and gold country. The wind in her face brought the old high color to Kitty's cheeks; her eyes had darkened in the old way of de- light.
 Its been five weeks since I've seen you"
 Don't I know that?" He told her of changes he'd been making in the new book, of the | people he'd met. David, going ahead, she thought. Well, she was too. And she told him of the precious balance that marked the success of the shop.
