IT IS NOT INSPIRING
The spectacle presented in the United
States senate the other day when dem
ocratic senators at the behest of a par
ty caucus attempted to whip Senator
Patterson in line and compel him to
rote on a measure in opposition to his
conscience and to his duty, as he saw
it, was not an inspiring one. It is not
one that will encourage those, who are
endeavoring to establish higher ideals
of c'tizenship, who are trying to imul
cate the idea that private and public
citizens owe their first duty to right
and truth rather than party, to leave
the triumphant republican party and
and seek their ends through the dem
ocratic party.
There is an old saying that justifies
the policy of fightiog fire with fire, but
it ts one that is always used as an apol
ogy for wrong. It was pointed out by
the able Senator Bailey that the ques
tion at i-sue the other day, the San
Domingo treaty, coulu not command
the support of republican senators ex
cept by the application of the party
lash, tie said the only way that the
true sentiment of the senate, which is
against the treaty, can be recorded is
to force the democrats to vote against
it as a party, and thus defeat it. With
out probing the statement to ascertain
whether true or not, it might be said
that never yet have two wrongs made a
rish-.

The Indianapolis, of the ^Alaska
Steamship Company, in her long trip
from New York to Seattle, made ap
proximately 3JJ mile* a day, without
allowance for the stops 'or coal and
o:hcr supplies. That is equivalent to
three days between Seattle and Skag
way. and it was maintained for IS, 000
miles.

Manchuria. What has Russia to do
with Macchuria? Has it forgotten its
last attempt to "defend" the province?

ON STAGE
Hero of Valencia Wrick
Takes to Theatricals
John Segalos, the Greek fireman who
was the hero of the Valancia wreck,
has accepted a position in a Seattle va
riety theatre, where he makes nightly
appearances before the throng which
divides it admiring attention between
him and the girls who are always so
thirsty between numbers
It is said by recent arrivals from the
south that Segalos, like so many men,
has become aware of the fact that he is
a hero and he is onjoying his notoriety
and the adulation of his fellow men.
He was presented with a medal, just
after the wreck, by the Methodist
church of Seattle. Th:s was followed
by the presentation of a medal by the
chamber of commerce, and other atten
tio :s were paid to him, before he be
came stage struck.
Atlin Indian Kills Boy
Atlin Shorty, an Atlin Indian, killed
his 14-year old son while hunting in (he
vicinity of Dezedeash lake recently.
The Indian was hunting moose and was
very near one whose trail he had been
following in the snow. The bey had
been directed to remain behind. In
some way he got ahead of his father.
The latter mistook him for his quarry
and shot him.
