There are plenty at bidders for the seal
fisheries contract. Already the offers
made will give the government a rcvenuc
nearly three times larger than il has re-
ceivcd i'm former years. Regarding the
figures, the San francisco Examiner says
that the SsOO,UOO "a year which the old COM
pany offers to pay is over IL per cent, on
the total cost of Alaska, of which the little
islands covered by the lease form an AL
most im~pcrceptible part. IL would allow
3 per cent. for interest and almost SGOO.OOO
a year as a sinking fund for the payment
of the principal. In other words. under
the new contract the entire purchase
money of Alaska can be paid off, princi-
pal and interest. In about 10 years, and
the receipts for tho other 10 years will he
clear profit.

The CAPITAL o eSIlON.

forces together on the tield of battle

state with the weight of the claim it
can make by the time n contest X

There's no telling where Ia perma-

Anaconda went down because il was
assailed by unfriendly forces in Silver

their compliments tn Helena and ac-

If again Helena can quiet Hozeman

A GOOD MAN GONE.
Death OF Henry w. Grady, the Grea
Southern Orator and Efl;t,r

" AAoiy W. Ufady, the Grea,
Southern Orator and Editor.
Henry W. Grady, the brilliant young
orator and editor of the Atlanta Con.
stltutlon, is dead. During his recent
Vlslt TO Eoston to attend banquet, at
which ex-President Cleveland was a
guest and speech-malrer, he con-
tracted typhoid pneumonia, which de.
veloped Immediately upon his return to
Atlanta, and ended in his demise. Mr..
GRADY was the most conspicuous repre-.
sentative of the great South. and was
beloved by all the people who claim
that part of the United States as their
home. lie was only thirty-eight years
OF age, yet within the last ten years
mad achieved famo as an editor, as an
orator OF great eloquenco and power
ana as q broad-minded man, who, while
loving the South, yet recognized that
the old war issues were dead, and that
the duty OF all Northern and Southern
sons OF the blood-bathed flag was to
help the body OF the people to forget
che animosities and differences of the
past and join hands in working for the
future advancement of the whole
country. He labored zealously for
the best interests of his beloved
South on this line, and the
laying aside of sectionalism which
mas begun to take such gratifying form
IS due very largely to his logic, his clio.
quence and his carnestness of purpose.
Indeed it was in this cause that he met
his death. He attended the Boston ban.
quet as the brilliant representative OF
the Southern people, and made one OF
MS characteristic speeches there, shar.
ing with ex-President Cleveland the
honors OF the occasion. 1t was on this
mission that he was stricken by disease.
IN his own words, he fell talking for the
oouth, even as his father fell fighting
Tor 1t. And it is fitting tribute to his
memory that his battle for the land he
loved was one whereof the weapons were
reason, generosity, charity and love as
opposed to the fire and sword of his
fathers strife. 1t was his fortune to
hold warm place in the hearts of all
not because he opposed OF
1ated the North, but because he sought
% bring the erstwhile antagonistic sec.
ions into that union of sentiment as
vcll as OF being which marks the typica]
