GOl0 hunting I'hFtN . bHu Luchs
Seattle, Aug. 18.--W. H. Rosecaulp,
of Chicago, who was member of the
Dusty Diamond party, of Chicago, has
returned from Alaska. The party was
composed of so men. They sailed from
Seattle in May, 1897, intending to go
to Dawson City. Through Ill luck, they
reached st. Michael's late and were de-
tanned there until 1t became too late
to make the trip up river. Then they
headed for the Fish river country in
the Golovin bay district, from which
good reports we're coming. There they
have remained ever since. The expe-
dition outfit cost an even $4,000, ST.
600 being contributed by each member
of the party. After Is months Of en-
during hardships and privations they
have been enabled to draw out $500 to
the man. The party is now broken up
and dispersed.

We would say that the REpUBLI-
CAN has always stood tor the best
interests of the Republican party;
has given good advice to its readers
but has never been in favor of pO-
litical hari-kari that could only re-
cult in the defeat of the Republican
party and the success of the Demo-
cratic party. Unfortunately, for
years there have been two factions
in the Republicans party, from the
Bird and Higgins factions up to the
present time, that have rent the
party in twain and given the Demo-
Gratis control, when the Republicans
had majority in this city and even
in the State. Instead of fighting
their differences out at the primar-
les, they have been carried on right
along, until they enter every con.
test with two sets of candidates.
Every reader knows the foolishness
Of putting two sets of Republican
candidates in the field, by the last
city election. By a united effort
the Republicans could have swept
everything before them and elected
every city official, including ma
jority of the members of City Coun-
Gil. Before the two tickets were
put in the field, the REPUBLICAN
warned them against such political
suicide, but it was not needed.
Has the time arrived when Repub-
lican has to take sides and then be
denounced by the opposing side
worse than they would denounce
their political opponents? We
think not.

and it was said would soon pay tor

the cost of operating it and the old

nearly twice as much as the old
crematory. But then positions have
to be made for the party workers.

IT IS easy enough to find fault
with the Street and Sewer Commits
sioners. They are now being
brought up with a round turn for
putting four street supervisors on
the payroll, thereby increasing
the yearly pay roll for permanent
employees 81, 46S. By creating these
supervisors they hope to save the
amount that is paid them by doing
away with just that many foremen
in the department, besides getting
better results than heretofore. We
cannot see anything to make a howl
about and think the money we'll eX-
pended, more so than the salaries
that are paid to useless city officials.
NOTWITHSTANDING all the pres
sure which has thus far been brought
to bear upon Governor Tunnel, he
has stuck to his intention OF not yet
naming Senator from Delaware.
That brilliant Democrat, who made
national reputation for himself
as pardoning Governor, Bob Rey-
nolds, thinks Governor Tunnel is
doing the Democratic party a
wrong, by not naming Senator.
But little does Governor Tunnel
care what Ex-Governor Reynolds or
other men like him think. The
Governor is doing his own thinking
which is more than Reynolds ever
did,
