TO DEVELOP ALASKA.
But One Way to Secure Good
Government.
Congress VIII Be Asked to Organize
the Territory After the Us uaI
Fashion.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 3.-Another attempt
is to be made during the coming session
Of Congress to enact legislation for the
better government of Alaska. The per-
sons who have already gone to that Terri
tory nn1 made investments are anxious to
have laws which will make secure prop
erty rights and will also establish closer
commercial relations between the Terri
tory and the United States. 1t has been
suggested that one of the first steps toward
bringing Alaska into closer communication
with the United States and making it
more useful to the Government will be 10
organize the Territory as other Territories
have been organized and seud delegate
to Congress to represent it, who would
point out the needs of the people of the
Territory to the Legislators.
This idea is combat:ed by those who
claim that al present there are not enough
white people in The Ter. tory to stitute
representative government, and that the
native population has not attained degree
of INTEL gence to entitle it to participate in
Government affairs.
Because of lack of legislation the de-
velopment of Alaskan mines. which are
said to be very rich, is retarded. Most of
these mines are Of such a character that
they require great deal of machinery to
operate them ani considerable capital
must be invested before any results can
be obtained. 1t is possible that In the
short session of Congress there will be no
time for passing adequate laws for the
proper government OF the far North
western Territory, vet the men who have
been pushing. west for many years are de-
termined that something must be done for
Alaska, and her interests will be pressed
upon Congress in the short session, and
even if no action is taken it, is expected
that the way may be opened for some
thing substantial in the next. Congress.

VENERABLE TOPERs.

THE British Medical Association
has been investigating the question of
longevity in connection with the use
of alcoholic beverages. The terms
used in the report are rather elastic,
but the figures are instructive. Deaths
to the number of 1884, taken at ran
dom, show the average age of temper
ate drinkers TO be sixty-three years !;
careless drinkers, fifty-nine years;
free drinkers, fifty-seven years; in
temperate drinkers, fifty-three years;
total abstainers, fifty-one years. The
analysis in the case of those who
reached the age of over eighty shows
that fifteen per cent. were total alb
stainers, ten per cent. heavy drinkers,
and seventy-four per cent. moderate
drinkers. OF those who lived more
than ninety years, fifteen per cent.
were total abstainers, nine per cent.
were hard, and seventy-five per cent.
moderate drinkers"
This remarkable investigation, is
already stirring up, throughout the
Anglo-Saxon world, the old ques-
ton of "total abstinence" and
temperance"
1t is SAID that, the reason why
the total abstainers make so poor a
showing is, that they are generally
incorporate in the use of food. Bad
digestion renders them susceptible
to diseases of all kind. Wrong
eating does more harm than alco-
hol. Sir Henry Thompson, with
many other distinguished physi-
clans, have so testified again and
again. One of the most celebrated
physicians, and professor, in the
medical college of Philadelphia,
said that in his own practice, where
he had one case OF alcoholism"
he had twenty who suffered from
or gluttony. Yet a wo-

man, who will chill down her body
with ice cream, so as to arrest diges-
ton and throw the system out of or
der, will run about asking young
men to wear the "blue ribbon" 1t
is only ''pots saying black to the
kettles" Alcohol has killed its
thousands; ice water has killed It's
ten thousands.
The British Medical Association
is not a very sensational body, and
when it permits or endorses state
ment, there may be something IN
it. The fight for temperance will
soon be fought on new lines, just as
the fight for political reform, is be-
ing fought on new lines. The evils
arising from the incorporate nse OF
alcohol are vast and terrible. So
are the evils Of disease arising from
intemperance in other matters,
which fills the world with sick
women, and children. Reforms in
character cannot be one sided, any
more than a dirty boy can be called
clean, when only one of his ears Is
washed off, and the rest of his head
and body is covered with dirt.

Mr.. L. P. MORTON, late Vice
President of the United States,
finds the immigration laws of his
country, as bad as wire fence, IN
arresting travel. He engaged a
coachman in England, and when
he with his coachman, arrived in
New York, the immigration agent
refused to pass him in, because ne
had made labor contract before
leaving England. The Secretary
of the Treasury, during Mr.. Nor
toms term of Office, had so decided.
The matter was taken into the
courts, but the coachman was re-
leased on the ground that he was
a purely domestic servant, and the
order of the former secretary was
reversed.
The United States freely permits
the admission of paupers, anarch-
lists and cut-throats of Europe, if
they swear to it, that they have
paid their own passage. But if a
good, respectable man, makes
labor contract previous to leaving,
or agrees that when he arrives, he
will make a contract, then he is
solemnly excluded, and sent home.
This kind of legislation is usually
to be found, when the people have
it all their own way, and the labor
element is trying to wall out any
competition. 1t keeps out some
good men, and lets in a rabble of
bad ones.

BUSH ON INTERNATIONAL LAW.

Bishop Willis lays himself open
to severe criticism in the discharge
Of his high trust, in the education
of boys, in neglecting TO secure the
services Of the editor Of Ka Leo
(native), az a lecturer on interna-
tional law, logic, and English liter
allure, before the advanced classes
of his School.
There is not, in literature, a more
curious, unique and comprehensive
treatment Of any great question,
than Mr.. Bush's treatise on the re-
lations of the Queen of England to
our Republic, and it should be
adopted as the only true textbook.
He says:
"The English nation has recognized
the so-called Republic of Hawaii
through an autograph letter of the
reigning sovereign, II. NJ, QueenVic-
toria, not as an Act of INTERNATIoN-
AL POLICY, as the Editor would try
and poke down our Threats, but mere
ly in accordance with the fixed laws
of INTERNATIONAL COURTESY,
to further and not to clog the wheels
of her commercial chariot.
"Queen Victoria affixed her sigma
ture to the letter of a recognition of in
ternational courtesy, not individually,
as an example by which her people
should follow, but merely as a duty,
which as head of the British nation
her position necessitated.
"What gross presumption a pen-a-
liner to associate the International
courtesy of recognition as 'the will
expressed by the British Sovereign,
and an Act of International policy,
which all must of necessity bow down
to and obey"
The above is as clear as spring
water, and much like the boys COM
position ''all dogs ought to be yell
low. Some dogs isn't yellow.
Therefore they isn't dogs" The
distinction between policy and
courtesy is admirably drawn. Pro-
lessor Bush should say to the adj
vanced class of boys, 81 take pig
from a man for roasting purposes.
/ pay him as a matter of courtesy.
Ny policy is not to pay at ALL" The
sheriff says to the convicted MUIR
derer, on the scafold, II do not
put the moose around your neck, by
reason of any POLICY, 1 do itpurely
out of COURTESY, which the situa-
ton demands"
Accepting, for the moment, Mr..
Bush's theory of international law,
we are surely at liberty to state,
and we believe Mr.. Hatch, who is
always cautious in stating law pro-
positions, will confirm us, that the
Queen of Hawaii was placed in re-
tirement, by the people, not as a
matter of policy, but simply as
matter of courtesy, but it was the
only obvious and polite way of
manifesting our profound apprecia-
ton Of her delinquencies.

The difference between
tweedledee and tweedledum
is apparent the moment you
examine our stock of solid
silver ware and that sold in
other establishments. This is
a new line we have gone into
this season and the stock was
bought in San Francisco by
Mr. HENDRY. Only the very
latest designs were selected
for our trade, and we believe
we have just what the people
want. The stock comprises
Sugar Shells, Butter Knives,
Soup and Gravy Ladies, Salad
and Fish Sets, Preserve and
Berry Spoons, Sugar longs,
Olive Spoons and Forks,
Sardine Forks, Cold Meat and
Lettuce Forks, Pie Knives,
and forty-seven other articles
not catalogued.
In fancy goods our five

admiration of the lady who
wishes to be in the fashionable
swim without going to a great
expense. We have a half
dozen very pretty patterns.
Banquet lamps, handsomer
than anything aOe have ever
