The County Convention of the Demo
cratic party held in the Court House yes
terday was one of the most orderly and
thoroughly respectable political gatherings
ever assembled in this Territory. The
followers of Mr. n. n. Craig, Mr.. l.. r.
Bresnahen and Mr.. F. c. Thomasson,
each of whom wa seeking the nomina-
ton for Sheriff, made a strong and deter
mined fight for their favorite candidates.
The contest was carried through twenty
WI ballots, resulting in the nomination OF
Mr.. Craig. While the delegates stood
for sevs al hours shoulder to shoulder,
each set giving an immovable support TO a
particular candidates, nevertheless the con
test was entirely devoid of bitterness, and
when the Gnal success Of Mr.. Craig was
announced the applause was as general
as it was hearty.
The entire ticket as esterday placed in
nomination by the Dem, rats will bearthe
closest scrutiny. We feel hat from top
to bottom it is worthy the full and cor
dial support not only of the party, but OF
l honest voters. In several in
stances gentlemen have been re-
nominated by reclamation to the
positions which they now hold, indicating
the honesty and ability with which they
have discharged their duties.
With such a ticket to fight for, success
in November seems a ioregone conclusion.

NV. r. u. Shanks Letter.1
] went the other night with IA western
friend, an artist, and a police detective in
search Of the sensational, and did not find 1t.
! had seen 50 much in the wspape about
th. filthy Chinese quarters, and Its hlthier
Chinese inhabitants, that when 1t was sug-
gested by my western friend thai he would
like to see that particular form of wretched-
ness | determined to investigate for myself.
It Is simply all a lie that has been told about
tho amazing squRlor OF the Chinese. The
amRzing fact is That they Rrs the only clean
beings TO be found in their wretched quar-
ter. They live cheaply, but comparatively
speaking they live clearly.
The quarter Is itself filthy beyond de-
scrfption, but the city md not the Chinese
IS responsible for this; the corporation is
taxed TO pay for cleaning hat is never done,
unless Chinese cholera threatens and com
pels the health board TO insist ON some
sweeping and a good deal OF disinfecting.
The Chinese In Mott and Bayard streets are
"A great deal more clearly in habits, dress.
and language, Us far as I could discover,
than either the Italian or Irish denizens Of
the same quarter, or the French in their
particular quarter a mile distant. The most
filthy looking creature | saw in the rooms Of
tho Cinnamon were their Irish wives. The
thhhoNo hNo tANihFhkhnlly compared 10 the
italian in the same quarter, paying doubly
for food, lodgings, and clothing. Your sunny
italian Is a fraud Of romance, / firmly be.
lieve. He lives on nothing II dry and takes
in boarders for s~ustenance.
The ChinRmen are clean in linen, quiet in
demeanor, AMI when he deliberately makes
up his mind 10 get drunk, he goes TO his
favorite resort, gets his mead shaved, takes
his pipe, and gets royalty drunk in quiet and
seclusion. His Irish neighbor, and as II rule
his Irish wife, gets DRINK and gives the en-
tire street the full benefit of IL. The Italian
gets surly, but is usually quiet; when he is
not quietly and sullenly disposed. then he
wants to murder somebody OF his own race,
and usually Of the opposite sex. A Chinese
gentleman does not court publicity when ill.,
toxicated. his favorite drug on which he gets
drunk does not impel him TO paint the pre-
cinct II fiery red hue, and firmly believe
that it isn't half rs poisonous as the brandy
OF the Frenchman or the whisky Of the
American.

pARLlAmEnrARY JOURNALISTS.
Reporters In the House OF Commons
Their Organization.

-Their Organization.
London Cot. New York World-l
The reporters gallery in the house Of com
mons has become one Of the most important
factors OF parliamentary life. In former
years the great services which the press pei,
formed in respect to the Affairs OF parla-
ment were scarcely recognized. Reporter,
could only obtain their information By
stealth, and exposed themselves to the dan
ger OF being punished by parliament.
As "A matter OF fact even to-day
tho papers violate one Of the priv.
ileges of parliament by publishing the
debates. for tbs rule %forbiddlng publica-
ton has not yet been repealed No one. now
ever, thinks Of enforcing the law. The
speakers rathar complain that their speeches
aru not given full enough. They would feel
greatly chngrined were tho papers to appear
without IA detailed report Of the parlia-
nientary proceeding
Thirty year. ago the members Of tho re-
%rortsrs' gallery we're comparatively small In
number. Only the London morning papers
and two telegraphcompanies, the Electric and
the Magnetic, which supplied the new1s 70 the
provinces, were permitted d. TO have representa-
tives In the gallery. The Reuter- Telegraph
bureau mad TO struggle long before it secured
admission for It's reportorial staff. The re.
porteis Ind to go from the house OF commons
TO thu Office Of their papers % transcribe
their stsnographic notes.
All this has been gradually changed. The
journalists we're given more and more ac-
commOdations, they obtained large writing
rooms and telegraphic and telephone con
n%ections were established between the gal
lery and the newspaper Offices The number
OF reporter, which was formerly fifty, has
now become POO. The gallery was enlarged,
and provincial papers permitted TO have tgelr
special reporters Five years z a whole
suit OF rooms was fitted up for the Journalists
and everything Is now done 10 alleviate the
diseomforts OF the long sittings. They have
Il dining-room, two smoking rooms, "A read
ing-room and several more writing-rooms.
The gallery is also in other respects well
organized. Every year It elects an execu-
tive committee OF twelve OF its membsrs,
whose rules are strictly obeyed. The com
mitteo makes il arrangements with the Of
fcials Of the houses Of parliament, suggests
aud nccomplishes improvements where neces-
sary and makes It's contracts with the caterer,
who, for IA comparatively small price, fur
nishes the gallery with excellent eatables and
driukables. Tho committee selects from it's
members a president, an honorary secretary
aud an honorary librarian, tho latter having
charge OF the gallery library, which was es
ubiished three years ago, has already 400
volumes and is constantly increasing.
II is "A great satisfaction for the Germans
that the only representative OF their nation
ality in the gallery, the chief of the reporto-
rial staff Of Reuters bureau, Mr.. James
Heclscher, enjoys the confidence and at
tachmen Of his colleagues to so great an ex-
tent that they have three times elected him
