IT is sound political doctrine that only men of ability and standing should be appointed to office. More than this no man has any right to apply for po- sition which is the patronage of party who has not worked for and aided that party in its struggles. Last at the polls and first for the spells is not good poli- tics, If there are any republican ap- pointments to be made give them to tried men who have served their party faithfuly-not to political upstarts. The party that deserts its friends invites de- feat.

THE report of the governor of Alaska shows that the territory is something more than a seal hunting preserve. Seal skins are not even the leading articles of export according to his figures. They are estimated for the past year at 130,- 600, worth 100000, while canned salmon foots up s3,355,OOO; gold, s2,OOO,OOO; whalebone, Sl, ,l59,OOO, and the total ex. ports including seal skins, s9,S40,730. This is promising showing, and miner al prospects give still better outlook for the future. especially coal of good quality and in accessible localities. Some day the Aleutian Islands will probably be the field of great cattle growing in industry. What the Territory now most needs is an adequate system of govern ment

Tis to be sincerely hoped that the meeting between Parnell on one side and O'Brien and Gill on the other side in France ;may be productive of com promise on which both Irish factions can unite. As the matter now stands Home Rule must suffer should either side triumph. Matters might be arrang- ed for the temporary retirement of Par nell, which is absolutely the only hope of the Irish party now. When home rule has trumphed MT. Parnell will not suffer for any self abnegation which he may now make for his country. Such a course on his part would make his name impreishable in the anuals of Irish patriots; but the course heassnow pursuing will bring ruin to Ireland and infamy on himself.

ANOTHER REPORT.

Omaha, January "A Bee Pine Ridge Special, later in the day, says another scout has brought second report to the effect that skirmish had occurred. Scout No. 2 said he learned the Ohey- enne hoetiles made rush on 8 squad of Osrr's Sioux scouts on Grass Creek last nigkt and killed several of them. When the scout asked whether any soldiers were engaged in she skirmlsh, he was t'ld there were, but that they took very little part in it.
 Anumber of reports are brought in by government employees stationed in various parts of the reservation to the effect that the country seems alive with hostile scouts.
 As yet the authorities have been un- able to get at the report regarding cay airy horses in the hostile camp, .hOu9h this report ref srdiuG the stieek by .,,e Cheyenne hostiles seems to somewhat verify it. Instead of keeping the troops in 6 huddle condition in the center of the camp as Brooke had them, General Miles has thrown them out into perma- nens picket lines upon the top ofs ridge that encircles the agency valley and is having rife pits and board shelters built for them. one for use in case of attack and the latter to shelter them while of duty. In other words instead of an agency building surrounding soldiers, soldiers are to surround the agsneys. Indeed, during the brief time sincsShssn ersl Miles arrived here the entire face of affairs has undergone a radical change.
