There is no doubt at last that the
predictions as to intense suffering in
Klondike are in process of fulfillment.
There is only one possible remedy, and
that is the organization by the govern
ment of relief trains, to be sent in with
provisions to the destitute, on sledges
drawn by reindeer. The day may come
when a sentinel ship at the entrance
to such a region will turn back the i'm
provident before whom there is only
the certainty of starvation, but that
time is yet in the future. While
awaiting that day of better methods,
there is nothing but to make as good
terms as possible with unkindly fate
and push forward supply trains as ex-
peditiously as possible, for they will
not arrive a moment too soon to pre-
vent actual starvation if they were to
start on their long journey today.

All decent Republicans in Texas, and
there are tens of thousands of them in
the state despite the holy show that
the leaders have made of themselves
and the party, will rejoice at the pros
pect of this unseemly fight between
the Grants and the Greens coming 20
a close. The National committe is
taking a hand in the fight in self-,le
tense, as one Of the gs is a member Of
the National committee. The action
of the National body is against the pre-
tensions of the Texas member and
without recognition in his own COM
mittee it is inevitable that his influence
will soon be a thing of the past.

Every few months some good advice
is given to the exporters of the United
States, as to the wisdom Of putting
their goods on the foreign market in
such shape as to command the high
est prices of that market. It is again
suggested by the fact that comes
through the treasury department, to
the effect that American bacon only
brings half as much in the British mar
ket as that of other supplying coun-
tries. The sole reason is that Ameri-
can bacon is not that which the Brit
isher prefers, as it is too fat. Let
Uncle Sam breed hogs for meat in
stead Of lard and send bacon of the
| lean kind over there and it will COM
mand the top of the market. John
Bull does not like too much fat in his

London is not in position to give the
American people any advice at present
as to keeping their heads cool and their
feet warm, in this misunderstanding

to aid her in Cuba, nor does London
understand how Madrid misunder-
stands Washington. London had bet
