is no complaint of failure to adminis- ter the law in the three last named places.
 The government probably has been misinformed concerning inc true con dition of affairs at St. Michaels, and may partially be excused for the course pursued, but we think that sufficient time has elapsed to convince the cabi- net that a military government at St. Michaels is as unnecessary as it is at Wrangel. Military government is not needed at St. Michaels. Let the civil department govern under the law and constitution, and the soldiers can be stationed there to aid the civil authori- ties if their help is needed. This much is due the officers that govern Alaska let justice be done to them.

PUG|L|ST SHAWN ONCE REPORTED DEAD
BUT MUCH IN EVIDENCE AEVERTHE-
 LESS
An Interview That Did Not Ind Vel

\ great biz bully Irishnlan. over six feet tail. light complectcd, and weigh ing t~o hundred pounds, describes a passenger on the City of Seattle bound for Victoria. It was Frank Sla>in. the once famous pugilist.
 There goes Slavin the pugilist" said one of our citizens to the JOURNAL man, and the scribe proceeded at once to in- terview the man of doubtful reputation in the pugilistic line.
 Just from Dawson. l suppose?' said the news gatherer.
 .'Hes sir. just from the interior
 "Going back:''
 "Yes, I will go back in Mareh-l went in last May
 'How do you like the interior for d changer? was asked.
 "Oh it $ Il good place to get fat, said the man with hand as big as d nine pound ham.
 ''l don't suppose you are thinking much of pu.ilism, but the readers of the JOURNAL would like to know what you think of Corbett's offer to give Fitzsimmons S:5O00 if he will fight him in the ring.
 "Corbett and Fitzsimmons be d-d." :" don't care what Corbett does to him. :" said A1r. Slavin. and then followed q string of oaths and ulyarity that was simply appalling.
 We watched our chance for an open ing and finally the pugilist gasped for breath. and quick as lightning we shot d question at him. more for the purpose of getting him stopped than anything else and. assuming d low. conversa- tional tone. the JOURNAL. man asked him if he was going further East than Seattle. Now one would suppose the question was harmless. for everybody goes to Seattle, but the question stir red him up in terrible manner.
 Seattle. Seattle.-I don know Seat tie. it ain t on my map and then fol- lowed such swearing and raving as we never heard before. and for fear that we might stir him up again. We worked the same scheme on him-waited till he stopped to take in some pure Fort Wrangel air, and then we thanked him for the interview and got out of that as quick as our feet would take Us.
 We think that interviewing pugi- lists should be a separate and indepen- dent profession-It has tendencies that might lead to the corruption of the ordinary reporters mind.

FIFTY MEN
 ONE WOMAN That Many K|ondikes on the Seattle

MRS. "NiIGER JIM"

The City of Seattle had fifty klon- dters OH board last Wednesday who were bound for Eastern ports. A rep r,.sentativc of the JOURNAL met several of them. to whom they stated that the trip out Was made in thirty days under quite favorable conditions. The par ties that were on board of the Seattle were well supplied with gold dust and the newsrathcr was cOntidentially in- formed that at least one million dollars were on board. ''Nigger" Jim and his wife Were among the passengers and came ont with the other klondikers on board. It will naturally be supposed that "Nigyer" Jim is q colored man. but such is not the case. He is a pure blood white man of fine physique and pleasing address. He did not wear the coon skin cap and there was noth- ing about his actions that indicated he was three times q millionaire. His wife was sight to behold. or rather the manner of her dress was. for she wore coonskin sack. neatly made and we'll fitted. and d skirt of the same ma terial that reached to her knees. and on the bottom of her skirt hung coon taile three or four inches apart that reached down to her ankles She wore black stockings and a pair of neatly fitting shoes. A small cloth cap cover ed part of the top of her head. and this is the way the wife of the mil lionaire. who as a matter of choice. wishes to be called Nigger Jim. looked as she walked around town with he1 husband looking at the sights of the best town in Alaska
 To say that this costume created |; sensation puts it mildly. The fact i: that the people stared and the smal boys were paralysed. One of the na lives, who had a vein of the ridicu lous running through his make up took one look and doubled up like { Jack knife. "What would the angel. do, laugh or cry. if they saw that, pointing toward the coon tails. said ; man who was enjoying the sight.
 Mrs. "Nigger Jim is not bad look ing woman, and her manner is pleas ing. She endured much hardship in fol lowing her husband to the goldtields ant returning overland in the dead of win ter. She deserves to enjoy her wealth We hope she will.

Christian Duty
DURANT AND THE CHURCHES
God Forgives-Man Don't.

It is said that the Christian churches would not permit murderer Durant's $ body to be buried in any of their ceme- taries in California. This may be ac- cording to Christian teaching but we doubt it very much. Moses, the great law giver, and the only person who ever saw God, killed his man and be- came a fugitive from justice to escape punishment. and this occurred before he became Gods favorite servant. Da- vid, King of Israel, ordered Uriah into the front of the battle that he might be killed, and he never lived to report the battle, and he married his victim $ wife, who bore a Solomon, and he was forgiven by his heavenly father and found favor in his sight, but human be- ings, professed Christians wont even al- low Il human monster, who was insane, born unbalanced, to be buried in a Christian cemetary.
 We considered the evidence against Durrant sufficient to convict. him and human beings. constituted as he was, possessed of a diabolical, irresistible impulse. an impulse which he couldn't control. yet, believing all this, and al- most knowing that he is such person, We believe, that society should rid it. self of such monsters by taking their lives. but is it not going too far to say that decent burial shall not be accord- ed to them: We think it is

A KICK
Against Military Government in
 Alaska

Military Government in time of peace,
 is not favored by our system of govern ment, and yet part of Alaska terri tory is put under military rule. when no object can be gained thereby or any
 interests be subserved. There can be no doubt that Alaska is governed by a thoroughly competent and honest corps officials, and if they can be trusted to govern part of the Alaskan territory why not the whole. It is true that a great many people will go to St. Mi chael's this year, and there will be a fair number of the lawless element in- cluded, but the same can be said of Fort Wrangel, Dyea and Skaguay, and there

The Richmond Times says "The
self-sccking editor cannot accomplish
much for his community. Upon the
unselfishncss of his paper depends
largely its influence. If the public
once gets the idea that newspaper
is trying to promote the personal or
political interest Of it's editor, they
lose confidence in it's sincerity and
always read the editorials between
the lines. Such apapcr does not get
the benefit even of what msclGsh
work it may do, for it is always open
to suspicion. We say, therefore,
that in order for newspaper to be
useful it must be unscliish, and must
convince its constituency that what
ever course it pursucs it has only the
public good at heart" ."-Exchange.

The malignant man who lays plot
to harm fellow-creature should be
very careful that he does not involve
himself in trouble. God has so con-
stitutcd the world that wickedncss
often rccoils with terrible effect upon
its author. The Psalmist saw this
fact long ago. Speaking of the evil
schemcr, he said "IIe made a pit
and digged it and is fallen into the
ditch which he has made. His mis-
chief shall return upon his own head,
and his violent dealing shall come
down upon his own pate" Moral
laws do not vary from age to age.
They are just as operative now as
they were three thousand years ago.
Let the mischief maker beware.
Whether he knows it or not, there is
trouble ahead of him, and serious
trouble ut that. lie can no more

of Gen. Wheeler. We earnestly
hope that you will send us, most Of
the regulars, and at any ratio the
cavalry, division, including the Rough
Riders, who are rs good as any regu-
lars and three times as good as any
State troops, to Porto Rico. There
are 1900 effective men in this divis-
ion if those who were left behind
were joined to them we could land
at Porto Rico in this cavalry division
close to 1000 men, who would be
worth easily any 10000. National

Springfield, Or other archaic weapons.
Very respectfully,

The following reply was cablcd to
Col. Roosevelt to-day:
Your letter of 23d is received. The
regular army, the volunteer army
and the Rough Riders have done
well, but suggese that unless you
want to spoil the effects and glory of
your victory, you make 10 invidious
comparisons The Rough Riders
are no better than other volunteers.
They had an advantage in their
arms, for which they ought to be
very grateful. r. A. ALGER,
