THE GOVERNOR OF KLONDIKE.

The AppOintee n Warm Friend Of
Vice President Egan of she {. II. Il.
Vice and Acting President John NJ.
Egan of the Central railroad has had a
personal friend honored with the appoint
ment as governor of KlOndike by the
governor general Of the Canadian provin-
ces. This is Maj. John NJ Walsh Of
Brocksville, Ontario, whom Mr. Egan
used to know during hiss earlier railroad
life in the northwest. Maj. Walsh wrote
the Centrars vice president of his ap-
pointment, and the latter wired him his
congratulations on his gubernatorial dig
nifty. The governor of Klondike will start
within several days on his journey to his
dominions. lie will go by the Canadian
Pacific railroad, with the building of
which he was identified, being the officer
in charge of the forces protecting the
worlmen from the Indians. as far as Vic
toria, and from that place he will sail for
Dyea. From Dyea he and his retinue will
take the Esquimau dog route
for the mines. Mai Walsh
was for long time in command
of the mounted police of the northwest
territory and was considered one Of the
best officers I'm the English service. lie
was IN command OF the Canadian troops
on the border when Sitting Bull with his
horde Of Sioux, waltzed across the line
after the Custer massacre. The Indians
encamped just over the border and
watched the United States troops on their
side Of the line. who watched their foes
in mpotent rage. being prevented by in
tcrnational law from crossing the divid-
ing line TO take vengeance on the slaugh-
ters Of their comrades. Maj. Walsh kept
the Sioux under surveillance until, the
United states troops having retired from
their position, they broke up into small
parties ana made their way back TO the
reservations.
While the construction OF the Canadian
Pacific was IN progress. Mai Walsh was
ln command OF the mounted police and
was actively engaged In keeping the hos
tiles down and preventing the smuggling
OF liquor into the territory. IL being The

gagged IN private enterprises.

CIGARETTES GO UP TODAY.
Smokers Must Pay to 3 Cents More
Per Pack.

Cigarettes go up in price to-day. The
American Tobacco Company, the trust
which controls the manufacture of the
majority of the popular brands of cigar
cites, has issued its orders and they will be
obeyed. All 5 cents goods will go to 7
cents and all 10 cents goods to Is cents.
Dukes and Cyclers cigarettes will now be
sold at I cents pack and Richmond
straight cut at Is cents. The increase af-
fords a striking Illustration of the beauty
of trusts and republican tariff bills. An
increase of 1 cent per pack in
the duty on cigarettes affords the trust
an excuse to combine with the retailers
and middle men to extort / to 4 cents a
pack more profit from the smoking pub
lie than they have obtained heretofore.
it took the trust some time to make up
its mind as to what should be done about
the increased revenue duty 1t was at
first announced that he trust would di-
vide the increased duty with the retailer,
the middlemen standing pat The trust
only pays him a commission to handle its
goods anyway
Dukes cigarettes which sold at So. SO per
LOCO when the duty was only 50 cents,
were increased to only 1885 the trust thus
assuming 20 cents of the Increase while
o.
cigarettes which are packed 20 TO the box,
and formerly sold at $150. were advanced
the fun increase, however and offered at
81. This was evened up by the manufac-
turers standing the entire advance on the
Richmond straight cuts, and furnishing
them to the retailers at the same price as
formerly, $3.50 per 1880.
This magnanimity was too great to last.
however. A few days of it strained
the generosity of the trust to the utmost.
Retail dealers have been advised of an
advance all along the line and smokers
need not be surprised when they find this
morning that their favorite brands cannot
be mad at the old prices.
Imported goods are also advanced &c per
1,000, due, it is said, to increased tariff
and revenue goods.
This gives another opening to the op-
ponents of the tobacco trust, which win
doubtless be taken advantage of. The
principal opponents of the trust
are Liggett & Myers Of St. Louis,
the Drummond Tobacco of st. Louis and
the National Cigarette Company of New
York These firms have not advanced
their goods as yet and probably viii not
do so.
There are also slight increases in the
prices of chewing and smoking tobacco

COUNTY COMMISSIONERS TO MEET.
There VIII he an Important Session
Held One Day This Week II Is said.

There VIII BE an Important Session
Held One Day This Week II Is said
There will be a meeting Of the county
commissioners the latter part of the week,
Thursday or Friday, il is thought, for the
purpose of discussing drainage. AS is
known there have been new turns given
the drainage question in the county very
recently, and it is thought that the special
session, which will be called for one day
this week. viii be for the purpose partic-
ularly of discussing the Buckhalter swamp
drainage.
The complaints made against the county
commissioners recently, for the investiga-
ton of which a special committee was APP
pointed by the foreman of the grand jury,
have caused a good deal of comment, and
the public generally is very much concern
ed just at this time over the question why
the county commissioners have taken all
of the convicts away from the swamps
and drains near the city, which are I'M
quesuonaby in bad condition, and put
them to work in a bulk out at Buckhalter
swamp.
Chairman Dale of the county commits
sioners is not in the city now Ii is known
that 1t was by his special direction that
the county convicts were taken away from
the legitimate and much needed work
around the city and placed in the wider
ness of Buckhalter swamp, miles away
from the city
Chairman Dale is off for his annual va
cation, and will not return to the city for
several weeks. He viii spend few days
at Waukesha, Wis, and from there win
go further west, stopping for several
weeks at Colorado Springs. chairman
,lts TO-.
of the board OF county commissioners, is
also away from The city, but he is expect
ed to return this week. and the other
members of lie commissioners board are
awaiting his return before the meeting is
held for the purpose of taking some Def
mite action on the work al Buckhaiter
swamp. 1t is known that the most severe
and dangerous months of the summer are
now on. and it is the belief of many ciU-
zens and several members of the county
commissioners board, as well, that the
swamps around the city should be drained
before the Buckhalter work should be
pursued, as il is, without plans any
further.
Mr.. Kehoe. one of the county commits
soners, at che last regular meeting of the
board, raised the point that the drainage
Of Buckhalter is being carried on without
any plans having ever been passed on and
approved by the county commissioners as
a body. He will probably, al the meeting
10 be held this week, go further into this
question and insist that the work out
there be stopped until some definite plans
are adopted by the county commissioners,
in which event it is highly probable that
the commissioners will give orders that in
the meantime, pending definite plans for
the Buckhalter work, the conVicts snail
be brought back to the swamps close
around the city and the work here pro-
ceeded with in the fulflment of the duties
which the commissioners owe the people
of the city of Savannah by doing the most
good for the most people
The meeting will be watched with in
terest by the public generally.

A STRIKING EXAMPLE.
OF the Humor and Emptiness of SEN
satiOnaI journalism.

From the Atlanta Constitution. Aug %,
II may be that the state viii have to
seize the monitor Passaic and hold the old
bic between the Savannah and the Bruins
wick reserves can be adjusted.
As it is now Savannah Gains that she
has authority to take the Passaic and
holds this right through the report Of the
officer of the Wilmington and the decree OF
the war department.
This has aroused che ire of Brunswick
and the organizations declare thar they
will not yield to the demand of the Sa-
Vannah troops. Feeling in both places is
high and IL may be that the state depart
ment Will have TO interfere by Soizing the
Passaic or in some way taking radical ac-
ton. There is no saying what the result
Will be.
The commanding officer of the Savannah
troops has put his case in the hands OF en-
attorney. lie holds the position that he has
been maligned by the statements of the
Brunswick people in that they charge that
he represented the Gym county reserves
in a bad light upon the return trip to Sa-
Vannah. just how the case will be called
up 60 the courts it is not known, but
Lieut.. Colding is wrathy over the reports
which he claims have been instigated by
the Brunswick troops and he declares his
intention of evening up.
Between the two organizations just now
matters are sizzing, and the citizens Of
the two places are waiting eagerly for the
next move.
This is the condition which will be pre-
scented to the governor and it is said that
he viii be called on to intervene in some
way. Some claim that he will issue an or
der disbanding the whole organization of
naval reserves, but this is hooted at by
those familiar with the conditions. They
do not say, however, what steps will be
taken to bring about more peaceful rela-
lions.
More interesting than any other feature
of the fight just now is the claim made
by both cities for the Passaic, but it is
safe 90 say that Savannah win not get it
without q real battle and real hloodshed.
The case has assumed a unique condition
and there is no saying the result.

Meanwhile the officers will continue their

the deed. He is supposed to be hiding out
