ALASKA FUR COMPANY.-Goyernor
Swineford OF Alaska renews the attack
upon the operations of the Alaska Com
mercial Company, which created some
stir when made in bis official report Of
last wear. If his charges are well founded.
the company to which the Government
gives a monopoly of seal killing on the
Pribyloy Islands is guilty Of deliberate
and grave violations Of the law. His
accusations particularly relate to the
treatment of the native popula-
ton. Governor Swineford considers that
those of them who are in the company's
service have been reduced to condition
of practical slavery. Perhaps the Gov
ernor. who Is very much incensed against
the company, may oyerstate the case ;
but il Is hardly creditable that charges
like his should be made and reiterated
without such an investigation 10y the
Government az will establish their truth
or falsiiy. The Alaska Commercial Com
pany is the Governments tenant, ana
Goyern IT Swineiord is the highest Ter
ritorial officer in the region which the
company occupies.-Er.

ing a better feeling of friendship and
fellowship to prevail in tho editorial
corps
The former habit that editors of
newspapers had of converting politi-
cal differences into personal disputes
and abuses is almost entirely banished
from the press Of Louisiana, and to
these editorial reunions can be given
the honor of this beneficial and healthy
change.
The meeting in Opelousas will,
doubtless, be attended by representa-
tives of the press from almost, if not
quite every parish in the State. They
will have an opportunity of seeing the
people of Opelousas and of becOmin Z
acquainted with them, and 1T the same
time, for themselves see and learn the
wants of that section of country, SO
that hereafter when they speak or
write concerning it, they will know of
/ what they are writing, and be enabled
to give their thousands of readers in
formation that will be truthful and re-
liable.
And in these reunions Of the press
writer's, much and valuable informa-
ton is acquired by personal inter
course, concerning views and ideas on
public reforms, improvements, and
other matters with which the prosper
ity of the general public is intimately
associated, and which tend to improve
and enhance the happiness and COM
fort of the people. "G.n
