Mr. Slier man said: "I think It will now bo in line for Russia and Franco to take pos session of UhinoM! ports Their inter ests will require such action. Great Urltain has Hong Kong, which is the seat for Kugllsh interests, ami now Germany has Chaio Cliou. Russia Is desirous of obtaining it southern port where her ships will not bo frozon in during tho winter.

Speaker Heed, when it suits his pur pose to do so, etui play tho role of tho sphynx in a manner that has never been surpassed by any man in public life. Hu has been playing it during the turmoil iu the house over tho ques tioft f modifying or repealing the civil service law, and up to this time all at tempts to lind out where hu stands Wave failed. During the warm debate which begun the day congress reas sembled mil which still continues, ho has not said or dono anything to indi cate which side, if either, he sympa thies with. The statement that the antis were only making a rumpus qii the subject for use nmong their con rtituoats lids made thorn more deter- iliitit than over to do something. They have openly told their republi can colleagues that if they would not help thorn to puss a bill modifying tho civil service law thty would unite with the democrats for tho purpose of pass lag a bill for tho repeal of tho law. More than ono hundred republicans aro said to have promised to vote for tho bill modifying tho civil serrice law that is to bo reported to tho house from tho committeo on civil service, provided that the bill is not more rad ical than the one introduced last week, which conSnes the operation of the oiril service law to otllcos with sul nries from $1)00 to $1,800 u year, and to localities where there aro more than twenty-llvu employes. V "Every time the senate deviates from its doliberuiio custom," said a senator noted for his conservatism, "it does something that it would belter have left undone." He was referring especially to tho resolution adopted without consideration by the senate just previous to the recess, calling upon the members of the cubit et for their opinions of the civil service law and rules. Nobody .eeins to have paid any alien ion to the somewhat cMraoidi nary nature of that resolution until the anwi'i's4begaii to come in and bo read to the senate. Then it dawned upon tho senators, especially thoso who arc sticklers for precedent and propri ety, that the resolution, asking mem bers of the cabinet to send their opin ions to the senate of something that the president had full authority to reg ulate without additional legislation, was a violation of both. Senator Couki ell, of Missouri, called attention to this mid g.ivo notice that he would move to rotor, till Jllio answers to tho president, whoro they properly be longed, ami J Senator Ilo.tr said apol ogetically: "Itlsooms to me u most ex traordinary proceeding for the senate to instruct tho heads of departments If the prcsout program is cart led out the question of the annexation of Hawaii will havo tho right of way un til settled. Tho treaty lias been taken up in tho seuato, and daily executive sessions aro to bo held until it Is dis posed of. There havo been, it is be Moved, enough changes among senators to make tho vote in favor of the treaty roach tho required two thirds. Hut the opponents of annexation are going to niako a hard light, and, under tho senate rules, they can stretch it out If thoy aro so disposed. However, they do not talk as confidently of defeating it as they did when congress first met. Don't uso bill heads or statements in which you havo to writo your own name. Get them printed in an up-to-date style. There is nothing which will make your customers think you are of tho disposition to bo penurious so much as this. If you aro stingy in one way what reason is there to be lieve that you wont bo in other ways. Get your printing douc right at tho Chief ofllco. Commissioners Proceedings.
