THE governor Of Alaska, A. p.
Swineford, in his annual report to
the secretary of the interior, states
that the white population has great
ly increased. He estimates that
there are 10000 natives, and the
total population is 40, $50, and of this
number $500 are whites, $4,000
creoles and 2,905 Aleuts. In regard
to settlement of public lands, the
governor states that all settlers in
Alaska on public lands are mere
squatters, who are waiting legis-
lation from congress which will
enable them to secure titles. All the
salmon canneries i'm the territory,
seventeen in number, are located ON
public lands. He asks favorable
consideration by the department of
the bill now pending before congress
providing for the organization of the
territory.

THE PRESIDENT ELECT.

The president elect spends the
days quietly at his residence, receive
ing a goodly number of his neigh
bors and friends who call, and read
ing letters and Eastern papers.
Since the day Of election Gen. Har-
rison's mail has steadily increased,
until it has now reached mammoth
proportions. 1t requires an express
wagon to haul the bundles of letters
and bags of newspapers that
arrived almost daily. About 1900
letters and several bags of papers
'comprised Mondays mail. Hereto
fore Gen. Harrison has tried to an
swer every letter, if only to ac-
knowledge its receipt, but with such
an extraordinary increase he now
finds the task will be too great for
him to undertake, as it would take
his entire time. He was very par
ticular to impress Onthe CORE pond
ent that it would have afforded him
great pleasure to acknowledge the
receipt of every communication, and
up to Monday this was his intention
but an inventory of over 1000 tele-
grams and letters, with several hun
dred additional letters arriving each
day, has caused him to abandon
them Individually, and he asks the
press of the country to extend his
kindest and warmest thanks to his
friends.
Nothing has more impressed the
president elect than the enthusiastic
and heartfelt expressions in the
thousands of kilograms he has re-
ceived. Nearly two thousand of
these kilograms and letters were of
such IA personal character that Gen.
Harrison felt 1t might be considered
indelicate in him to permit the publi-
cation, although many of them are
from persons of political or social
Besides this class of
kilograms, there are fully 2O0O from
men and women in the humble
walks of life, who express their sem
timent of admiration and rejoicing
in the warmest terms, which, while
exceedingly gratifying to the gen
aral and calling forth his frequent |
in conversation, cnjoin him
from offering them to the public.

CLEVELAND AND HIS PARTY.
BY the governor:
GEO. w. MCliRIDE,
Secretary of State.

A prominent officer of the adj
ministration, who has been fire.
quent caller ut the White House
during the present term, says Cleve-
land was unpopular with pretty
nearly every officer of the govern
ment with whom he had to do busi-
ness, including members of his cabi.
MT, One CAUSE of this was his real
or apparent distrust of everybody,
with the possible exception of Dan
Lamont, with whom the executive
was brought In contact. Early In
his administration he appointed
several unfit men to Office ON the
recommendation Of senators and
representatives, and from that time
forward he looked upon their advice
with seeming suspicion, and was
chary to high degree In accepting
suggestions from meu whose indorse-
ments should be regarded para
mount 10 those Of outsiders. These
gentlemen, who naturally had no
personal love for President Clev6-
land saw that he was so much
stronger by vlrture OF his position
and the circumstances Of hiselection,
that the democratic party and the
national convention should be com-
PEELED TO ore-noninate him. He Son-
sidered that his position placed him
above the necessity of oultivating
the friendship of the leaders in his
party. He had no apparent regard
for the feelings OF a score OF veteran
democrats who, but for the existence
Of this "child of destiny" would
have been candidates before the con-
vention. Ho did not net after con-
sultahon with his friends In the
senate and house. He acted first,
and others We're at liberty TO consult
afterwards II they chose. The
advice OF snch men as VIM. l.. Scott,
VIM. Singerly and Wilson Bissell
was preferred TO such democrats as
Samuel }. Randall, Arthur Z. Cor
man and John II. Mcpherson. The
southern contingent in congress ap-
plauded their northern free trade
ally, and the president rewarded
the south with officers.

Governor Semple of Washington
territory has issued q Thanksgiving
proclamation which is somewhat
out of the order Of ordinary stefee.
typed form of such documents. iHe
recommends that on that day the
people of Washington territory do
ASSEMBLE in their places Of w6feliib,
lin their school houses and society
halls, in their loggers' camps and
miners cabins, on their ships and
by the firesides of the rich and poor,
in the city and country, and there
give thanks to Almighty God for
His infinite goodness to us and to
all men. If any homeless one be
seen standing by the wayside on
that day, 1 trust that those who
are more fortunate will care for
them, that they may see the silver
lining to the clouds and feel the
sunshine of kindness for moment,
and so not despair of human nature.
Such bread will return in blessed
form to those who cast it upon the
waters"

ABOUT DELEGATES
They Should DO Sent to tho Conv.rt,.-
Without Instructions

They Should DO Sent to tho Conv.r.,.-
Without Instructions.
The duty of Republicans everywhere :. r.
send delegates to the National convention
unembarassed by instructions reuuirine
them to support any particular candidate
from first to last, regardless of the circnm
stances and conditions that may arise in
the course of the proceedings. It was this
process OF pledging men to fixed and OBJ
stinate choice that served more than any
thing else to provoke the antagonism which
proved fatal to Mr.. Blaine; and the man
who attempts to repeat that method OF
forcing a nomination will inevitably en-.
counter like misfortune.
The Republican sentiment of the country,
says the st. Louis Globe Democrat, is decid.
eddy aversed to the idea that any one ma,
is essential to success, and that defeat can
be avoided only by accepting candidate
whose friends obstinately refuse to aban.
don him on any account. The time has gone
by for saying that this or that man is in.
titled to the nomination as personal right
and by reason of past services. No man has
any such claim as that, and the use of such
an argument can only tend to make discord
where harmony is the thing to be desired
over all others. In short, this is not good
year for bulldozing; and the candidate who
shall undertake to gain the prize in that
manner will certainly come to grief.
There can be no objection, of course, to
earnest and determined work in behalf of
local favorites, according to legitimate and
considerate methods. The friends of each
candidate have perfect right to stand by
their man in resolute and vigorous fashion
SO long as his nomination shall seem posi-
bic or desirable; but they have no right to
prolong the contest when it becomes evil
dent that they are in hopeless minority,
and that the convention can not be per-
suaded to adopt their preference. When
such time comes, it should be the priv
ilege of the delegates to transfer their votes
to some other man as shall seem to them to
be best for the general interests of the
party. The men who compose Republican
National conventions are men of sound and
practical judgment, as rule, and when left
to themselves are not likely to make any
grave mistake; it is only when they are tied
down by absolute instructions and denied
the right of independent action under any
that they are apt to blunder
and stumble.
There is not a man in the known list Of
candidates who towers above his competi-
tors in any pronounced and commanding
fashion; and there is not man in the list
whose reputation is so provincial or indif-
ferent as to forbid serious discussion Of his
chances. They are all capable and worthy
men; any Of them can be readily and heart
lily supported; and the only question in the
case is that of their relative ability to Sc
cure votes and promote party welfare and
success. To that vital question all other
should be subordinated by
general and cheerful consent; and it is to
be hoped that the delegates will be chosen
with special reference to such an adjust
ment of the matter.
