The AssOciated Press announces that the three-cornered fight for the office of Surveyor General of this Territory, has resulted in the appointment of Joseph W. Robbins of Illinois. Mir Robbins was formerly prominent politician and newspaper man in Kansas. and has lat terly been connected with the Inter- Ocean, the Stslvart Republican organ in Chicago. From all that we can learn, he is an able and worthy ntleman, and will prove ar acquisition to the Territory.
 He will find the affairs of the office in excellent shape, and in systematic order. Gen. Wasson has made an officer auch as 1t has been rarely the good fortune of the Government to secure. While he has enemies, as all men of positive character have, there are none 30 bold Ss to ques- tion his privste or official integrity, and he retires from office with the full conf dence of the community and all who have had official connection with the of- fee during his administration. His standing IS assured by the strong en- dorsement he received for re-sppoint- ment, the best citizens of the Territory. irrespective of party. joining in s psti- ton in his favor. Whether Mr. wssson will continue to reside here ue do not know. but It is to be hoped that he will

Supplying a LOng-felt Want.

The latest thing out, and certainly al article that will ill want long felt, is an opera-glass that will hold half pint of whisky. It is, in fact, q whisky flask with lenses and things just like an opera glass, and a person can take drink without going out between acts. It can be used as an opefa-glass with or with out taking a drink. If you want to take drink there IS little spring that you touch with the little finger, when a sil- yer tube drops into the mouth, and the whisky flows as easily as possible. Ii works best when you point the opera glass up in the gallery, because that act gives 1t the natural incline. Quite a number of these opera-glasses are said to be in use, and they give excellent satisfaction. A party of four gentlemen had one between them at the theater one night, and though they have been regular corn hammers heretofore, going out between the acts with unfailing reg ulsrity, and walking over whole rows of people, on this occasion they did not go out until the third act, when the opera glass ran dry. It was amusing to see them take turns with that opera glass, looking up in the gallery at some imag- Oub hOu4u Nahc the glass and look up and take drink, and bow to somebody up stairs, and hand the glass to another, and he would look up. The last one to drink out of it came near giving the whole scheme away by shaking 1t when 1t refused to give down. After the last drink the gentlemen sat down ID solemn silence
 or ten minutes, and then they could not stand it longer, SO they got up and
 ilei out for a drink. It was evident that they had got it filled while out. be- cause they again began to look at the fellows in the gallery. If this opera vhisky-glRss flask comes into general use 1t will save visitors to places of amusement great deal of annoyance. as there is no greater nuisance at thester than a gang of fellows getting up and blowing through an audience to get drink. Quite a number of ladies have been notIsed looking up into the gallery with opers-glasses, but we can not think they have secured these new hasks. However, if they have not, they had better be careful about looking up high for time, for fear people will mis- construe their motives.

THE DEMOCRATIC oosvESr1os

For the purpose of nominating a dele. gate Tn Congress there was no necessity for holding Democratic Convention, as 1t was foregone conclusion that Hon. Granville K Oury would be renom. mated We consider the nomination the best the party could possibly have made. The only reasons that can be urged against Mir. Oury reelection are purely political. He has filled the office as well as any Democrat could hope to.
 Republicans must not delude them selves with the idea that they have an easy task before them to name Mir oury's successor. It will require most Iudicious nomination. and good hard work. We believe, however, that the task can be accomplished. and certain ly think that thelinterest of the Territory would be better served by q Republi- can delegate.
 It however, the people insist upon Democrat, Oury is our man.
 W. B. Horton was nominated last night by the Democratic Convention, as candidate for Territorial School Super intendent. It was after hard struggle and by only tlIree majority. Mr. Horton is g resident of this city, and was formally principal of our public school.
