and they want to make terms No oner

that involves the independence OF Cuba on
conditions not wholly satisfactory to the
Cubans themselves. Further temporizing
will be brooked neither by the president
nor by congress. Spain has not yet been

THE DEMANDS OF alaska.

The claim made by Alaska for reform
In its conditions is entitled to very
prompt consideration at the hands Of
congress. 1t has always been badly
governed, but that was due to the
scarceness OF the population and the
difficulty in reaching the widely remote
centers OF population. No part of the
United States Is changing so rapidly
az that once far off and despised ter
ritory. Alaska only few years ago
was as distant in the minds OF most
Americans as Kamehatka and OF as lit
tie value.
There will always be some difficulty
In applying any form of government
as readily there as in most places. be-
cause much of the land cannot be set
tied upon. But the same objections
could be urged to many parts Of Mon
tana and Idaho. Even the county OF
Okanogan has complained OF the ex-
pensiveness OF local government. and
II has been pretty well demonstrated
there, as often before. that mountains
are more appropriate dividing lines be-
tween counties than rivers.
The demands made by Governor Bra
DIV are very reasonable and II is to be
hoped that the modesty OK the Alaskans
in asking no more than is necessary
will be rewarded by their being put off
with no less than Is necessary. One OF
the most important OF the requirements
Is a better system of judiciary. Three
Judges are not too many, and the sal
AIRY would probably be more than off,
set by the saving in expense Of moving
the court from place to place. II Ger
tainiy would be II the expense Of TAX
ing witnesses and prisoners on long
| Journeys and keeping them for months
should be taken into account. Gov
ernor Brady is wise in suggesting that
| II In too early 10 FIX an abiding place.
| The population has not yet settled
down. and IL Is Impossible To deter
mine which OF the many mining camps
and food stations will eventually b.
| come the ccnters.
Governor Brady shows also that he
has not set out to frame an iron~ciad
| constitution and cumbersome system
| ~ government while the territory is
| SIN in a transitory condition Instead
| az having a legislative body which it
/ would take an act cf congress to dis

to do business with Federal officials
In 1871 Il was reported that there were
then over sixty servants Of the govern
ment domiciled In Seattle. all OF whom
should md official quarters in a public
building. II was stated that the busi-
ness OF the postoffce was crowded into
one door lsxi15 feet. and that twenty
eight people could not do the work.
The ordinary receipts for the month OF
April OF that year were Ss.2S0 On
Wednesday the postmaster deposited to
the credit of the money order and
registered letter account no less than
3si, 600 for one day. The business In
1881 was considered an extraordinary
growth. and il was then observed as
contrast that ten years before one man
and a girl. In a room rented for SO
month, attended to the postal business
in Seattle. Within two years the post
office had been twice removed and It's
rent had risen from $500 to $500 a year.
Since that time the only department
OF the Federal government In which
there Is a decrease Is the land office.
In every other there has been great
increase The congressional report
stated that Seattle was headquarters
for inspectors Of steam vessels, and Of
ficers Of the coast and geodetic survey:
that the signal service had q represen-
tative here. that the United States
court required considerable accommo-
dalton and that the customs service,
which then consisted Of a deputy col
lector and three inspectors. must soon
be largely increased. The report Justly
regarded 1t as very unfair that the en-
pioyes Of the land office and the in
spectors OF vessels should have to pay
the rent of their offices out OF their
own pockets.
The report closed by saying that In
view of the great Capitalization OF gov
eminent interests in and about Seattle.
and In view Of the certain great future
growth of Seattle, the committee earn
estly recommended the passage OF q bill
providing for the purchase Of a suitable
site for a public building. That was
seven years ago and the number Of per-
sons employed In the public service is
doubled. II would take almost three
years before such building could be
ready for use.

In calculating the relative strength
of Spain and the United States in the
event of a war, SUFFICIENT weight Is
not given to the fact that the most Inn
por,ant factor in our position is that we
ara in a splendid financial condition.
and that Spain's greatest weakness lies
In the fact that she il bankrupt. This
is why Spain always yields when a de-
mand is pressed firmly. II Spain ieit
sure of even being able to meet the Uni
ted States on equal terms she would
not submit to what she regards as the
dictation Of this country.
Before a gun has been nred there are
fears that there will be an unparalleled
money panic in Spain. The expenses OK
the Cuban campaign have been enor-
NOUS, and the people are taxed up to
the limit. 1t would be utterly impossible
for Spain to place q loan among the
bankers Of Europe. while the United
States could raise $500. 900 900 without
the least trouble.
Business interests. or what the Popu-
lists denominate the money power, have
some influence upon the policy of
great commercial nation like Great Brit
ain or Germany, and q very wholesome
restraint upon responsibility In the
United States: but in Spain moneyed
interests are Insignificant compared
with the population. Political condi-
tions must be considered there, and they
will be considered. by the government:
and the great preponderance Of opinion
Is In favor OF a war with the United
States. The Spanish government knows
what the result will be, and would
willingly evade 1t. It Is a try
ing position. The ministers are In
the dilemma that IL they do not fight
there will be q revolution, and IL they
fight and lose there will also be revo-
luton. They have confronting them in
evitabie bankruptcy IL they undertake
the war. and they can only avoid war
by giving up Cuba.
The United States will prevail against
Spain, because we have money and ~
cause Spain has none.
