Red Men.

It is purpOsed in the near future to organize a Tribe of the Improved Order of Red Men in Douglas. Deputy Inco- honee Capt. Jay N. Leonard, who is now organizing a Tribe in Juneau, states that he now has over fifty members on the charter list there and will organize sometime next week. And he expects to have nearly double the number at the time of institution, thus making it one of the strongest organizations in that city. He will then devote his at tentiOn to organizing similar Tribe on the Island. The order is the oldest distinctiveIy American organization in the United States, having it's origin be- fore the Revolutionary war, and as the Patriots were ably aided and assisted during the long and weary struggle for freedom and independence by the friendly Indian natives, many of their modes and customs and best traits of character are perpetuated by the order. All of the secret and unwritten work is conferred by Chiefs in full Indian Cos tune, which makes it very interesting and instructive.
 The order has grown to be very strong and is thoroughly organized in every state in the Union. Over S16,OO0,OO0 have been paid in benefits to the mem bers and their benefciaries. The char ter membership fee is ten dollars. Monthly dues one dollar. Weekly ben efits ten dollars. Funeral benefits seYenty-five dollars. Those wishing to become members can now take the ad- vantage of the low charter rates-when the charter closes the regular member ship fee will be twenty-five dollars.

THAT GALL.

The Skagway News of the 25th inst. comes to us with 1.-The Call" remodeled and fixed up so as to make it little more creditable. The apportionment of delegates is placed in "the call" 7" where it properly belongs, and the sig natures of the committee men are at. tached to the end of "the call," the only place where a sensible man would look for them.
 We don't wonder that the News man made the change. He is evidently up to date. The Juneau papers are ap- parently satisfied to send such a "thing" broadcast over the land and advertise AIaskans as not possessing sufficient political knowledge to be able to properly write call for a con- vention. Pride, common ordinary pride should have prompted the issue of call that would fairly represent the work of men of experience, intelli- gence and ability.
