1T PAYS WE'LL.

The reported lease of the Alaska seal
fisheries at nearly 81 ,000, 900 affords re-
newed satisfaction at the possession of
that remote but profitable piece of prop
erty. 1t is paying big interest on the
money Mr.. SEWARD paid for it. But
an inkling is yet had of its resources
and possibilities. There are indications
that it may be a great producer of gold
and other valuable minerals. There is
no doubt of their existence, but little
progress has been made in their devel-
opment. The rivers are known to be
filled with the choicest salmon, and so
extensive and abundant as to be virtu-
ally inexhaustibIe. Several American
companies are gathering them; one with
capital of $4.000.000 takes care of
81. O00, 900 worth of the fish yearly. 1t
is not probable that it will become a
settled agricultural region to any great
extent. although some of the Wis
itors report that in the southern por-
ton there is vast area of quite habita-
BILE country, the soil fertile and the
climate not very severe. Latitude is
not an index to atmospheric conditions,
as oil the Atlantic coast. But it will be
a good while before there is urgent oc-
casion to look for new agricultural
regions. For fisheries and furs Alaska
will supply need of the world. But a
small portion Of the country has ever
been explored, and it is likely to develop
mineral wealth beyond all present init
nation. AS an investment it is the
greatest the country has made since the
Louisiana purchase.

APPEALING REEDS RULES.

Ex-Speaker CARLISLE and his Demo-
cratic associates in the house of repre-
sentatives decided upon a wise course
in determining to carry Speaker REEDS
new rules into the courts, thus test
ing their constitutionality. The contest
between ATKINSON and PENDLETON,
from the First West Virginia district,
will be the test case; and the proper
proceedings will be had forthwith to
bring the question before the supreme
court. While we approve of the wisdom
of the action of the Democratic leaders
in this matter, we are not he p full that
they will win: nor, 20 be frank, do we
think it would be better for the coun-
try that they should win. The new
rules smack of tyrannical power, and in
vest the speaker with the authority of
an autocrgt. Still. they are serving a
useful purpose so long as they
can prevent tilibuStering, and are bene-
fetal in the sense that they are the
lesser of two evils. Nor is it within the
bounds OF reasonable expectation that
the supreme court, as at present consti-
tuted, will declare them to DC unconSti-
tutiOnal. Unfortunately, all political
questions are decided by that court ac-
cording to the partisan bias of the
Judges, and in this case the Republican
majority on the bench Will be most apt
to sustain the action of the Republican
majority in congress.
The wisdom of the course now being
pursued by the Democratic leaders is in
obtaining from the supreme court jul
dieial affirmation of the constitutionality
of REEDS rules. The matter will then
be forever set at rest; ana when the
Democrats come into control of the
lower house, as they are sure to do at
the next election, they will have the
sanction of the Republican supreme
court for applying gag law to the MI
nority whenever occasion seems to de-
mand it. If the question were left open
until another session Of congress, when
the Republicans will be in the minority,
the Republican leaders would atonce
proceed to test the consttutionality of
heir own rules, and would most prOba-

LONDON. March 3.-Mr. Gladstone. in
the house of commons to-day. referred
to the suspending of Henry Labouchere
on Friday last for his language regard
ing Lord Salisbury in the discussion on
the Cleveland street scandal and asked
that he be allowed to make the follow
ing motion:
The house deems it necessary to declare
that when member prefers charge against
0 minister, which the minister denies, such
member ought not TO be restrained from re-
fusing 70 accept the denial and from persist
ing in the charge because the minister is
member of the house OF lords.
The announcement of the motion was
greeted with opposition cheers. Rr.
Hon. w. I'll. Smith, the government
leader in the house, said he would con-
slider Mr. GladstOne's requSt. and would
let him know during the evening if he
could accept the motion for tomorrow.
John Leng. member for Dundee, asked
whether the department of agriculture
was ready to grant the demand of the
Scotch farmers for equal facilities with
others for importing cattle from the
United States and Canada. He also
asked whether the condition of Ameri-
can cattle justified the regulation pro-
yiding for their slaughter at the port
where they were landed. re. Hon.
Henry Chaplin. head of the agricultural
department, replied that the American
government was not complying with the
conditions of the act of 1878, and that
therefore the present restrictions
COULD NOT BE RELAXED.
In 1889. he said, tortY-Seven head of
cattle from America affected with
DleurO-pheumonIa had arrived in
England. AS recently as Feb. 81 bull
suffering from the same disease had

enforcement of the provisions OF the act
of 1878 were still proceeding with the

said that Gen. Probyn had sent him a

of the proposed interview, and Lord
Salisbury supposed it referred to jour
neys which were contemplated by
the Prince of Wales. He met
Gen. Probyn casually at a rail-
way station and they had very
brief and hurried conversation, during
which Gen. Probyn referred to the scan-
dial. Whatever passed between them,
Lord Salisbury said, he gave the house
of lords his assurance that he never said
a warrant was about to be issued against
Lord Arthur Somerset. Lord Salisbury
declared that he could not believe a man

view him for the purpose of worming

PnWDERLY CRINGEs-

There is touch of path0s in Master
Workman POWDERLY'S appeal to SAM
UEL SLOAN. the cnal baron, to give
something out of his millions for the
relief of the Pennsylvania miners who
are out of employment and are in a
starving condition because Mr.. SLOAN
and his associates have seen fit to close
the mines. We say that there is some
thing pathetic in PowDERLY'S appeal
to the authors of the widespread mis-
cry in the Pennsylvania coal region,
yet there is also something cowardly
about it. Mr.. PowDEKLY and the Or
ganization over which he presides have
it in their power to compel the coal
barOns to do justice. There are enough
of them to hold the balance OF political
power in Pennsylvania, and they can
compel any party in power to enforce the
laws. Pennsylvania is badly enough
off in the way of laws to protect work
ingmen, yet there are enough to meet
this case. There is law requiring coal
lands to be taxed at their full value, yet
it is a dead letter. They arc hardly
taxed at even nominal value. If they
were taxed according to their full value,

bly, get partisan decision declaring
them to be- unconstitutional. Now is
the time for the Democrats to strike.
The Republicans have driven the nail,
the Democrats want to clinch it, and
thus hold their opponents to their own
position when the time comes to turn
their batteries oh the enemy.
Yet we have no doubt that eX-Speaker
CARLISLE is acting in entirely good
faith in this matter. During his long
administration of the speakers Office he
always ruled the reverse Of what Mr..
REED has done. AS a lawyer he has
great respect for precedeuts, and is
ever too conservative man to eounte
nance the radical and revolutionary
methods adopted by his successor. Yet
the probabilities are that he will lose
his case, and it will be fortunate thing
for the Democrats if he does.
