Discovery in Alaska.
A New River, and Flowers Bloom
ing Within the Arctic Circle.

Lieutenant Storey, who went up on
the last trip of the revenue steamer
Thomas Corwin for the purpose of dis
tributing among the Tehackchee In
dams of Alaska the $4,000 worth of
presents given by the government in
recognition of the fact that they afford
ed shelter and food to the officers and
crew of the steamer Rogers, burned in
1881, reports the discovery of an I'M
mense river hitherto unknown to geo.
graphers. The river had been vaguely
spoken of by Indians to former eXplor-
ers, and Lieutenant Storey, being COM
PEELED to await the return trip or the
Corwln, determined to see if it existed.
Accompanied by one attendant and an
interpreter he proceeded inland from
Hothan inlet in a southeasterly direc-
tion until he struck what he believed to
be the mysterious river. He traced 1t
to it's mouths distance of about fifteen
miles where he saw such huge pieces
of floating timber as to satisfy him that
the stream must be of immense size.
He retraced his steps for distance of
fifty miles, where he encountered ma
tives, from whom he learned that to
reach the head waters of the unknown
stream would take several months.
The Indians told him that they had
come down the river distance of l 800
miles to meet fur trader, and that it
went up higher than that. Having no
time to 60 further, Lieutenant Storey
returned. In his opinion, as stated by
those on the Corwin, from which this
information was obtained, that the
discovery of this river accounts for the
large quantities of floating timber in
the Arctic ocean, which wasipopularly
supposed to come down the Yukon riv-
er. The Indians stated that the river
in some places is twenty miles wide. 1t
lies within the Arctic circle but in Au-
gust, when Lieutenant Storey was
there, he found flowers .and vegetation
not hitherto discovered in so high a
latitude. He has forwarded his report
to the Secretary of the Navy, and
hopes to be permitted to go back and
continue his explorations.

TainnIany Su.king.

The four Tammany members of the
democratic State committee neither at
tended nor sent substitutes t.lits meeting
in Albany TN Wednesday.
Their action caused much comment.
Many politicians regarded it as an in
dication that Tammany intended to bolt
the national ticket, and rumor was cur
rent that John Kelly had made bargain
with General Butler.
The Tammany committeeman increas-
ed the fears of the politicians by refusing
to give any reason for their action. Three
of them said thar business engagements
had prevented their attendance at the
meeting. and cx Senator Grady said that
he had to remain in New York to try A
lawsuit.
\ Tammany politician said that the
State committee was called together to
open the campaign for Cleveland. and
that as Tammany had not yet officially
declared their intention to support Cleve-
land, their four members had deemed it
unwi-e to attend the meeting.
This reason for their action WAS after
wards admitted To be CORE ct by one of
their number.

and interests of the states wherein are
particularly ccntcred the great wealth
and Industries of the nation, and which
pay an overwhelming portion of the ma
tIonal taxes. The immense aggregation
of interests embraced within, and the
enormously greater population of these
other states of the Mon, are sub jected
every four years to the dangers of Il
wholly fraudulent show OF numerical
strength.
Under this system minoritieS actually
attempt to direct the course of national
affairs, and though up to this time sue
cess has not attended their efforts to
elect President. yet success has been SO
perllously imminent as to encourage Il
repetition of the effort at each uuadren-
NAL election, and to subject the interests
oi an overwhelming majority of our peo-
pie, North and South, to the hazards of
Illegal subverSion.
The stereotyped argument in refuta
ton OF these plain truths is that if the
Republican element was really in the
majority they could not be deprived of
their rights and privileges by minority
but neither statistics of population, nor
the unavoidable logic of the situation,
can be overridden or escaped. The col
ored people of the South have recently
emerged from the bondage of their pres
ent political oppressorS; they have had
but few of the advantages of education
which might enable them to compete
with the wEiScS.
AS have heretofore maintained, i'll
order to achieve the ideal perfection of a
popular government. it is absolutely nee
essary that the masses should be edu-
Gated. This proposition applies itself
with full force to the colored people of
the South. They must have better edu-
catiOnal advantages. and thus be enabled
to become the intellectual peers of their
white brethren, as many of them I'M
doubtedly already are. \ liberal school
system should be provided for t he rising
generation OF the South. aud the colored
people be made as capable of exercising
the duties of electors us the white peo-
pie. In the meantime it is the duty of
the National Government to go beyond
resolutions and declarations on the sub
ject, and to take such action as may lie
in it's power to secure the absolute free
dom of national elections everywhere, TO
the end that our Congress may cease to
contain members representing fictitious
ma jorities of their people, thus miSdi-
recting the popula. will concerning ma
tional legislation. and especially to the
end that, in Presidential contests, the
great business and other interest, of the
country may not be placed in fear and
trembling. lest an interruptions minority
should succeed III sitting the wishes of
the majority.
In accordance with the spirit Of the
last resolution of the Chicago platform.
measures should be taken at once to
remedy this great evil.
