SHORTER HOURS DESIRED.

Bernard Waters and Thomas A. Richie,
Assistant Inspectors Of Gas Meters, have

same as in other branches of the District
service.
We respectfully represent they say
that the long hours of work in This Of

season Of the year. and We ask that the
hours Of opening and closing the office
may be made the same as in other branches

in forwarding the request to the Commits
sioners recommended that it be granted
The request was yesterday passed upon
by the Attorney tor the District, who gave
his opinion as to the authority OF the
Commissioners to grant the request.
There seems to be no law requiring
gas inspectors to labor longer each day
than the employees of any other branch of
the District government. The matter
seems to be one entirely within the con-
troll of the Commissioners.

marriage Sampell declares that at the in
stance Of the complainant he was indicted
for violation of the law of the age Of con-
sent she at the time making affidavit that

withstanding this declaration by her
Sampell alleges that in March, 1893. the
complainant, in her application for a po-
sition at St Elzabeth's Asylum declared
she was eighteen years of age. Further
than this, Sampell declares that he be-
lieves that the representations made by
the complainant to accomplish his arrest

him TO marry her. When Sampell was
charged with the offence referred TO last
spring. he was released on bail in the sum
OF $1,50n, pending his trial. In the mean
time the matter was compromised by his
marriage with his Gccuser.

ganization of glass blowers is admitted
by the leaders of the two factions of the

the assistance of John ". Hayes, the gen
eral secretary treasurer OF tine order
When two general assemblies were called
the glass blowers sided with what is now

The Boer War.

There can be no doubt that good
many OF us are considerably disap-
pointed at the logged persistence
with which certain OF the Boer
chiefs still maintain q resistance
which, in the long run, is bound to
be useless. That feeling is perfect
ly natural.
Lord Roberts has beaten the Boer
armies, occupied all their principal
towns, cent their President packing
of, fugitive on foreign ship, and
has been able to declare that the
war, as war, is over Aud yet
there is fighting going on in half
dozent ,differen places, with no in
mediate prospect OF its cessation,
One OF the great difficulties we, at
home, have TO contend with when
we seek to form true estimate Of
the state OF things in Sou b Africa
is our imperfect notions OF the geo
graphy OF tie ountry.
We are so used to hearing the de.
funct republics spoken of as two
little states that we forget that
their territory is almost as large as
France. That being 80 it is obvious
tlat the work OF finally stamping
GU. the resistance of even a few
hundreds OF determined men, seere-
tly aide1 by the nominally sub.
missive farmers who naturally
sympathise with them, must neces-
sariIy be long one.
1t took The Austrians two years
and an enormous army to reduce
the inhabitants OF Herzegovina to
submission, aud it will he no dis
credit to our arms il some months
still elspse jefore all traces OF guer.
lila warfare have disappeared from
the Transvaal and Orange River
Colonies. The fact is that all
through this bushes, we have un-
derrated the inherent diliculties,
and have expected complete sue
cess before it was materially pos.
sible.
The sanguine souls who looked
forward to seeing Lord Roberts at
home a few weeks after the occup,-
tion OF Pretoria were sadly disap-
pointed by the event, and some OF
them expressed their disappoint-
ment audibly, Well, we must Just
ann ourselves with the old fashion
ed, but very servicenble weapon of
stolid British patience.
In an age of wires, cables, and
the extra special, with their con-
sequent effect upon the national and
individual nervous system, that
quality OF quiet, logged, patience e
just about the hardest OF any to e1-
hibit. But il we mean, as assuredly
we do mean, to see this thing
through, it is a quality in which we
must show that we are not lacking
this winter any more than we were
in the in fniteIy darker days through
which we had to pass year ago

AS BOLDT SAW IT.

The following clipping from the Kan sas City Star exemplifes the style of information that is given forth by the brief visitors to this country:
 ''Frederick w. Boldt, who was sent tc Douglas Island and Juneau, Alaska, last summer by the Worlds Missionary Association to do missionary work among the Indians, has returned to Kansas City to get his wife and five children who live at 23O8 Park avenue. They will return to Douglas Island in a few days. Mir. BoIdt says there is much suffering among the miners of Alaska. The majority of them have not found enough gold to support themselves. They are trying to get back to the United States. When MT. Boldt left Douglas Island, two weeks ago, the snow was very deep. In speaking of the Klinket Indians, among whom he is to work in the future, he said:
 There are about 5000 Klinket In dians and two-thirds of them have the consumption, which is killing off the tribe rapidly. It is the largest tribe of Indians in Alaska and also the most advanced. Many of them work in the mines at Douglas Island. But they are unclean in their habits. Sometimes 15 families may be found living in one small house. They don't worry about anything. They wear very little cloth ing even in winter. In very cold weath, CT, when there is snow on the ground, they walk around barefoot as though it was hot July day. In cold wealth CT, too, they take their small children down to the water, wade in and give them a bath in ice cold water. As might be expected, most of the children and grown people have coughs and pulmo nary diseases.
 "sRussian Catholic missionaries have converted most of these Indians. The Indians sell their daughters to the highest bidder when they reach the marriageable age. They object to theil daughters marrying white men anG consequently there are few squaw mer among the Klinket Indians.'
 Mir. Bcldt visited Douglas Island thi. summer and was engaged as painter at the Friends church. He has proba ply thought he had seen it all and il
Douglas Island news., 1900-12-05

order to make his story correspond with the tales of woe that are coming from Cape Nome, told of the suffering miner trying to get back to the States. No such thing exists in s. b. Alaska, The miners here are not telling hard luck stories.
 The heaviest snow we have had on Douglas Island this fall was only three or four inches deep, and they would not call that very deep even in Mis- souri.
 In many other particulars is Mir. Boldt off his base and we would advise him or any other fellow with cock and bull story to spring on the public to go farther away from Alaska than Kansas City. You have to show those people down in Missouri. The gentle man who marked the article above quoted and sent 1t to the News knew that the statements contained therein were mostly either false or mislead. ing.
Douglas Island news., 1900-12-05

The extracts of the report of Gov. John G. Brady, of Alaska, that have reached us thus far seem to be again a subject of much criticism. We do not feel qualified to criticise so able a man as the Governor without a careful pc. rusal of the full text of his communi- cation. However, among much that may be considered by his enemies as bad, We find that there are some plain statements of acknowledged facts, The report states that at Cape Nome "every- thing and everybody is pell mell," :" which is certainly the case, up to and including the U. s. court at that point.
 The idea of asking congress to place the natives of Alaska on an equal foot ing with the whites comes to the aver age Alaskan with dull sickening thud and we hope to find that the Governor has thrown some modifying clauses in with the rest of it.
 We find one clause that meets with our approval and we hope that 1t will meet with earnest consideration. We have aausr been able to understand just whyThe same inducements to set tiers should not be given in Alaska as are presented in other portions of Uncle .Sam's domain. For that reason we appl&ad the subjoined sentiment:
 "The withholding of the land laws is the real difficulty in the way of getting a territorial government for Alaska. If congress would treat with Alaska as it has with other powers on the western frontier as regards land titles, there would.be within few years popula' tion there ready to assume the burden of an expensive government, where now an,entire population who are simply squatters, with a few exceptions, are not able to do SO"
