Judge Jackson Resigns.

Judge jackson is anxiously awaiting
the arrival of his successor, who is sup
posed to be Mr.. Fred Page of Tustin,
Oregon. The Judge has formed part
nership with the leading law firm in
Honolulu, and expects to return to the
practice OF law on his arrival there.
The appointing Of the Judges success
sor was not due to the political intlu-
ence as is generally supposed but done
at his request as the following letter
goes to show:
DEPARTMENT OF THF INTERIOR.
Washington. D. C. Sept. Is, 1898.
Mr.. Kenneth M. jackson,
United States Commissioner,
Wrangel, Alaska,
Sir:
Your resignation as Commissioner
in and for the District of Alaska to re-
side at Wrangel, rendered in your letter
of August -, 1898, is hereby accepted,
by direction of the President; to take

ification of your successor.
Very respectfully,

Ike Martin.
His body not found as reported
in the p. L.

i'll the p. l.
The P l. of the Goth. contains blood
curdling tale of murder and robbery on
the Dalton trail, of Ike Martin well
known and popular trader, on the auth
arity of two Seattle men who claim to
have been held up and robbed, and that
they found the dead body of Martin on
the trail. 1t is true that Martin was
missing and that few natives were
hunting for him, but the statement as
to finding his dead body is false, rs
parties, who know Martin personally
and who came over the trail. arriving
at Haines Mission on Sept. 22nd. day
or SO later than the time of the alledged
hOldup and murder, deny that any body
was found, and believe that Martin is
still alive and we'll, and will soon turn
up to refute the tale and relieve the
distress that such report must cause
his family and friends.

No Special Edition This Week.

Owing to the absence Of Editor
McKeand, who together with his wife
and several other Wrangelites took
passage on the Strathcona last week
Thursday for Glenora, where he ex-
pected to gather special information
regarding the Teslin trail etc. for the
special edition. His continued absence
necesitates the postponment of the
special this week, as promised. The
party is expected back on either the
Casca or Mono, both of which are due,
and should he return before next Tues
day the special edition will be issued
next Saturday.

We Are a World Power

The president has notified the ozar
that the United States will send a rep-
resentative to the international confer.
ence which he has called.
The state department gave out this
item OF news as q routine matter and it
has apparently attracted small atten.
ton. Yet is it not in reality the state.
ment OF an epochmaking event? Does
1t not directly entail consequences of
the most far reaching character? Does
it not mark the end of our era of inso-
lation, the beginning of our era Of ac-
tive and conspicuous participation in
the politics and policies of the family of
civilized nations from which we have
hitherto striven to hold aloof.
Less than six months ago our interest
in Europe and Europe's interest in us
were general, not particular. Then
came the Spanish war-to drive one
more European nation from this cont,
nent and, as it was generally supposed
to insolate us still further. We had
not been ut war ten days when this de-
fusion of further severance from world
politics was blown to atoms by the shells
from Dewey's guns.
The czar's conference is purely for
the discussion of world problems and
politics. Six months ago he would have
invited MS as q matter of courtesy, but
would have anticipated our probable
declination. What did we care polit-
ically whether Europe was convulsed
over questions of eastern hemisphere
frontiers? Today the car invites us
and expects US to accept. And we do
accept, not after long hesitation, but
promptly and as matter Of course.
In its quiet, brief announcement the
state department has officially informed
the world that hereafter Europe cannot
reckon we'll without taking us in to ac-
count; that we are a world power, with
mighty sword to toss, if we will, into
the scales of world adjustments New
York World.

BiehOp Rowe.

Bishop Rowe with his wife and child
took in the sights Of our city last Mon
day during the stay of the Cottage City
in port. The Bishop is very popular
in Alaska and we hope that his next
visit will be longer and that we may be
favored with one of his brilliant talks.
He is on his way to attend the trien-
NAL convention OF the Episcopal Church
which convenes in Washington D. c.
next month.
