IT seems that Tor some inscrutabte reason
the Federal grand jury at Juneau has
seen fit TO inquire into the circumstances
surrounding the taking OF the totem pole.
and the result is a characteristic outburst
In Seattle newspaperdom to the effect that
the leaders In that unique enterprise have
been indicted. They have not; but now
that the campaign against the famous IN
dian relic has reached the dignity Of jul
dicial inquiry. it is 10 be hoped that there
may be an official determipation OF the
exact facts OF this uch-discussed UNDER
taking OF Seattle business men. If the
grand jury desires accurate information
and OF course 1t does-it need not go to
the trouble Of haling before 1t either the
captain and crew OF the steamer City Of
Seattle or the members OF the Business
Mems excursion that went ashore at Fort
Tongass and with great labor hewed
down lonely and abandoned cedar mono
The inquisitive jurymen will find the
truth. the whole truth and nothing bu.
the truth as to the great transactions

Post Intelligencer. They tell who did 1t.
why II was done. how II was done, when
&c was done, and for whom It was done.
They nothing extenua,e. nor augh. set
down in error.
This most worthy ana interesting prof.
ect has come to be regarded as a crime
in the offices of certain Seattle newspa-
pers: but II Is something of surprise
that serious minded grand jury should
look upon Il as inviting its solemn atten-
ton. The totem pole appropriations and
donors long since learned to be phiIo-
sophical over the mighty trouble that has
been the reward OF their v,rtuous pur-
poses and no less virtuous fuifiliment
thereof. and will face even tina terrors of
an Alaskan Jail without tremor. Puta-
tive owners Of the pole have piled Ossa

Maryland is now in the Democratic
column. but IL VIII NOT remain there II
Bryan Is the nominee Of the Democratic
party. OF the states In the Northwest
which gave vote for Bryan In 1896 and
returned TO Republicanism since, we
doubt IL one Of them could be secured
for him again. Washington certainly
could not. and neither Wyoming nor
South Dakota would be likely to forget
SO soon that all the threats made by
Bryan were false. Montana might pos
sibly come into the Republican column,
but we have no such hope as to Idaho,
where. unfortunately. local troubles are
apt to influence the general results.
Montana and Idaho combined only give
six electoral votes.
The people are not for Bryan, because
his doctrines are not In accord with
their own experience. Not only has his
entire theory been exploded by a CON-
plete refutation of the statements with
which he illustrates: IL. but he has proved
himself to he utterly lacking In political
foresight. His strength was In the
