cation foreign to the genealogical
meaning Of the phrase. Strictly speak.
ing 1t means method Of living, bu,
according to developments during the
past few days itpromises to become a
method Of killing. 1t has come up In
the British House OF Commons In con,
nection with the question Of harbor de.

cussion evoked ON the occasion was, to
say the least, suggestive. In Washing

10 n like course Of action on the part OF

certain specified reasons limited
number OF seal might he killed by
Americana. Article 3 provides for the
capture Of poachers irrespective Of
nationality by any Of the high con-
tracing parties but subject to being
"handed over rs soon as practicable TO
the authorities Of the nation TO which
they respectively belong, who shall
alone have jurisdiction to try the
offender aud impose the penalties for
the same"
Ia the meantime provisions were
made with View Of eifecling n per
manent settlement Of the question. I'm
der these Joint nigh commission was
appointed TO Investigate tho seal
problem both from a natural history
and territorial point OF view. The
members Of that commission visited

seal. Though these membershl agreed
that the extinction OF the animal was
assured unless protective measures
were adoptet, yet tuey did not agree
NJ u these measures. The reports of
this commission we're Intended for the
Arbitration Board, to which the settle.
ment OF tho whole matter would be
submitted. The case was progressing
nvorably until report came that Lord
Salisbury hal positively refused 70 re-
new last years agreement. A. there
Is no possibility that settlement can
be- arrived ut before many nonth., the
refusal TO renew gave tho question u
serious aspect. There are now some
flny vessels or more flying the British
flag ready TO enter Bearing soa. How
many Americans are ready TO enter Il
is difficult TO say. Before the agreement
went into effect last year, 1t Is esti.
mated that 100 vessels, with an average
crew TO each Of 20 souls, were engaged
Ia poaching. with unlimited autho.
rity to spear, shoot or trap the animal,
regardless Of sex, age or condition, the
work OF these 1000 men meant In a
short time the complete determination
OF the seal. Unless the agreement IL
renewed the same condition will pre-.
vail this year, aud the seal would DO

be accomplished.
Tho British Columbians ARE growing
very belligorcnt about this matter.
They are demanding damages for their
vessel owners who were shut cut last
year. Altogether this case rs 1t stands
is complicated one.

"Dr Frondonrcich has found by OK

slstently with the general purpose and
tenor Of the bill. All that the Levis-
lature could DO under the cit u "a.
stances was to table II. The
ono man power thus crushed the
efforts OF the representative. Of this
city, OF the combined commercial in.
terests, and Of the entire Territory, and
no redress IL left.
The Worlds Fair bill appropriated

II. Why? Because II did not leave
him free 10 choose and nominate these

bled It. "one man power" again, and
no remedy.
In this instance there l. a conflict
between the Legislature and the Elk

law, he has not that right. There Ia
no disposition on the part Of the Legis'
laiuro TO deny the Governors

cise legitimatoly. But II Is claimed
and 1t seems with good reason, that
these persons are not called TO act rs
officers OF the Territory, as that term Is
legally understood.
but why should there be any dis.
pute over 80 small matter, apparently?
Because there IL great dissatisfaction
with nominations already made by the
Governor In this connection, and the
wishes Of the people have been more
than ignored. Persons have been APP

This is the truth In regard 10 present
difficulties, and II exemplifies the

The REPUBLICAN newspapers appear to
have much difficulty in making up their
minds whether BLAINE's recent letter on
national politics is calculated to do more
good than harm. The Cincinnati Times
STAR for instance, remarks that MIR.
BLAINE says nothing about the beneficial
effect of the tariff upon the interests of the
great army OF wage earners." and 1t re-
CARDS this as singular omission. But this
is not all. The Times star is shocked at the
position of the Maine statesman ia regard
to the Force bill, he evidently not wishing
to consider ii one of the leading issues, aud
not even referring to it. That organ says
While Republicans agree that it is unwise to
multiply issues it is the common opinion that
the party must not abandon the position it has
taken in many national conventions in favor OF
free ballot and an honest count. II must be
said that Mr.. BLAINE does not fully understand
the CONVICTIONS the purposes and the temper OF
the Republican party of today if he thinks that
the issue of an honest ballot will be ignored or
sighted.
OF course this means national supervis-
ion of Southern elections, such as was con-
templated by the LODGE bill that purported
60 have been based on the Republican plat
form. But it must be said BLAINE is not
the only Republican who wants to see the
question ignored until a new Congress is
elected upon other issues
