ALEXANDRIA, August 1s.--The enemy

little or nothing 70 improve them. Rebel

$1,000 regulars, $4,000 militia and $4,000
armed Bedouins. They claim to have Is, 900
men u Kafr 81 Dwar. These numbers Of
course are greatly exaggerated, but show the
tone Of confidence adopted BY the native

ANOTHER DISASTER IN THE ARCTIC

The arrival of the steamer Hope at Peter
head on the 2Ist inst, from the Arctic ocean,
brings intelligence Of another disaster In the
frozen sea, which, however, had more for
tunate ending than happened to the disas-
trous Jeanette expedition. Two years ago
Captain Leigh Smith, wealthy English
sailor who has made several expeditions to
the Arctic regions, fitting out his own vessels
and going out unoficially, left London In
the steamer Eira, with the intention OF max
ing another search for the ignius Jdtus that
has drawn so many mariners to their doom.
About the middle Of July he reached the
pack and worked his way to Franz josef
land and afterward to Belle Island. Leaving
there the middle of August the vessel was
unable to pass far to the eastward and was
made fast to land foe, where on August
2lst, 1t was heavily nipped by the Ice and
despite all pumping soon sank. The boats
were saved, together with q small quantity
of provisions and some bedding and cloth
ing. twenty-five men were thus left to
exist as best they could through the winter,
1t being impossible for them to make the
settlements. A house was built of stones
and turf and covered with sails saved from
the ship. For the first two or three weeks
the party suffered from extensive raos. Al
ter that the cold weather came on. During
the winter q number of bears and walruses
were killed and in April the birds returned,
80 that the party did not suffer from hunger.
On June 21st the twenty-five men started In
four boats from Cape Flora, where they had
wintered, with two months provisions.
Eighty miles of water were crossed and the
boats hauled up on foe. After six weeks
of constant toll in hauling the boats over the
foe, water was again reached and the course
set for Nova Zen,bla. The island was soon
gained and In one Of the bays was found the
steamer Hope, commanded by Sir Allen
Young, c. B., which had been sent out by
the British Government last June TO search
for the Ezra. The shipwrecked crew were
received with much rejoicing, their wants At
tended to, and the Hope Immediately sailed
for England.
The pluck and enterprise of Captain Smith
deserves better success than be has met
with, and II devoted to more practical and
tangible objects would make himself famous
and probably be Of much value to the world.
The disasters that the Arctic explorers have
met with In the past two years will doubtless
put an end to such expeditions, for time ut
least, and the North Pole will be allowed to
whirl on its axis without fabrication from
| human hands.

THE Delegate question Is getting TO be m
interesting theme In Montana. We had I'M
derstood that Major Maginnis had withdrawn
from the field; that Ii, that he would not
take the nomination under any circumstan-
ces and LEFT the field open for oil other aspi-
rants. This appears TO have been also the
view entertained by the Democrats OF Mon
tana. We have not had any explicit state
nent from Major Maginnis, but this appears
70 have been the understanding. Recent
events do not appear to sustain this view.
In the absence Of any authoritative statement
TO confirm 1t, the attitude OF several
Democratic and Independent journals leads
70 the belief that II the nomination Ii ten
dered Major Msginnis no will accept IL, and
the drift of newspaper expression Is In his In
terest. In the event that he had positively
withdrawn, the choice Of the Democracy
would have been between Joseph X. Toole,
A. X. Mayhem, A. Ii. Mitchell, and Samuel
Word. The latter gentleman has, In very
neat way, publicly announced that he was
out of the field. Mr.. Toole hiss appeared To
be the coming man until the new Maginnis
boom started, but the MaginnIs vs'as will
be those, principally, thst would have gone
10 Toole, and the support diverted TO Ma
einnis will detract that much from the
strenQth of Toole. Our Democratic con-
temporarIes appear to take . very narrow
yisw Of the situation, regarding II ~ merely
question of expediency candidate who
can catch the railroad vote. Il were moro
crsditable II public sentiment united on the
best man irrespective Of the accidental vote
that could be forced In the transient rail-.
road camps. Montana will have interests To
look after which the railroad interests may
conflict with and IL IL matter Of regret that
either party feels necessitatsd TO get down
on liz marrow bones to the Northern Pacific
or the Union Pacific companies. We have
NO war with these interpretations, but they
\ ere able 10 take care Of themselves and Mon
tsua should, II possible, send Delegate %
Congress who Is not under ooligstions q
sitber Of them for his election. We feel free
70 say this becauss we entertain friendly
feeling 70 both the railroad companies now
building In Montana, and 1t the same time
ws hold that II Ia the duty OF this people TO
send Delegate who will owe his election
and his obligation primarily TO the people Of
Montana who are not identified with either
railroad company, and who will make their
interests secondary 10 those Of the people Of
Montana. IL win be I humiliation and .
source Of regret II Montana has 70 submit IN
IL selection Of Delegste 70 the baisnce Of
power held by the Northern PaciSc Company
when the citizens vote their political con-
yictions.

THE Signal Service bureau has done much
good In It's time and will doubtless continue
70 do so, but the managers do occasionally
take up projects that are impracticable. Or
that class Is the one by which II Is proposed
TO warn the people Of expected storms. The
plan 10 to have . cannon at every telegraph
station In the country, which will be fired on
the approach Of storms, the character and
violence Of the storms TO be indicated BY the
frequency Of the shots. When II Is consid-
cred that ten thousand or more cannon
would be required and as many telegraph
operators more or less familiar with their
use, the impracticability can be seen In q
moment. Besides, to render the explosions
at oil useful TO farmers (whom II Is proposed
TO benefit 90 much), careful selection OF
the site for the cannon would have to be
made, which might prove extremely incen-
venlent for the operator as well as for neigh
boring residents. And II would be quite
amusing TO see whole community brought
to standstili by the sound Of . cannon shot,
and with bated breath counting the seconds
between the explosions, that all might know
whether summer shower or cyclone were
coming. We think the idea will soon be
embalmed and preserved In the museum Of
mental curiosities.
