MILITARY HEADQUARTERS.

Captain Hovev Is not at all SatiShed that St. MichaelS in the best possible loca- lion for the military headquarters of the Department of Alaska, and it does seem that it is most inconyenlent for the posts at Skagwav and Wrangel In fact, so far as southeastern Alaska is concerned, it would be far more convenient Co have the headquarters of the new Department in the ofice of the Secretary Of War a; Wash ington. as that point is more readily reached for the transmission of reports and orders.
 The Seere,lrv, in all probability. has been guided in his selection by two points; The one Is that St, MlehalS Is near to Nome. Co which district there will be such an immense rush this spring Of all sorts and conditions of men and the other tha, southeastern Alaska is IS quiet and well conducted as any plrt of the United States.
 There may be another reason The be- lief that The government may see the wis., dom of dividing the vast territory in two tsnl,OrieS or states, and then there would be two separate military deDar,ments. secretary Root is an able and far>Seeing man and |, would be gratifying if one could aecpt his action in this matter as a prophecy of the future.

GETS AN OFFICE FOR IT.

Just a, the time ,ha, the editor of the News Is about ,o drop his pyn and leave for Cape York;" writes A. c. McBrite, the senior editor Of the Douglas Island News. before he beg'ns his defence of Co.,. Brady. MT McBTide is a tirm believer in the governors strong ana benihcent in- iluence. He has reason 10 be as he goes to Crpe York on a fat government, Jaw" which no doubt Is the governors reward for his fawning editorials.
 Mr. McBrte condemns the mass meet ings of SkaSway and Juneau as unealled for and premature, and while tn one part of the artitle he says that We are long way from Washington" and therefore ig- norant of what Is going on there. in ano,h- CT he has reliable information that Gov. Brady and Mr. Prize are hand in glove with each other. This is how he puts it:
 "We have received reliable information from Washington City Co the effect that Gov Brady and Delegate Prize are work luk lOlcAucl ll udlnVuN lol AilC OSSi AiNSA- eStS of Alaska and amicably pulling to- gether in all material matters except the removal of the capital And further, Dr. SheldJn Jackson Is rendering Delegate Price all the aid he can to further the best interests of Alaska and Mr. Price very fre- quentlv calls upon the doctor and conSultS with him upon all matters relating tO the legislation for thlS district"
 This is another instance of the govern or's successful use of the grapevine tele- graph to bolster up his tottering standing as AlaSka'S poo'bah. Being worse than under suspicion he desires to make it out that he Is occasionally seen in good com pany-in the company of the man who does represent Alaska. There can be no truth whatever in the Douglas Island News statement. But then, McBride has Eo, hls government job, and has to pay for it. Wonder what the Siika editor will geis

Mr. A $.

He Is visiting his home in PennSylvania, and from the way in which the new Spaper reporter has hung upon his words his residence in Alaska has adted to his popularity and importance.
 Mr. Dau,rick never seems Co have been out when the reporter called. or engaged with the book that Is easily read but eN- pensive Co learn, and through the news plperS the citizens of the Keystone state have had their views considerably broaiN ened on the sutjeit of Alaska in particular.
