ANOTHER CONVENTION.

The republican territorial committee has issued a call tor arepublieln territorial con vention to be held at Juneau on May 18th. lt Is isSusi thus eirly because the national committee has expressly directed that all delegates shall be selected at least thirty days before the eonvening of the national convention. and it takes time to reach the .pretincts" and "wlriS" Of the Yukon and westward.
 Attorney John c. Heid.who Is the chair man of the territorial committe. very po- Htelv suggests that to publish eall In the DAILY ALASKAN would give more SatlS- faction than any other form of notification to republicans, but that at present the committee had no funds out Of which the cost Of Su:h publication could be paid.
 The DAILY ALASKAN Is only too pleased to publish this frSt notice of political character that has come to it. free from all charge; and it stands ready to do the same for the democratic territorial committee ii there De one; or the peoples party terito- fial committee if the soil of Alaska should prove rich enough to raise one. What the DAILY ALASKAN most earnestly desires 10 see Is the people oi Alaska thoroughly in tereSied ln political matters. and to study them that the study may result in benefit 10 the whole district.
 In this connection we would respectfully call the attention of all to the personnel of the present committee and the very small part oi this vast country represented there on. The committee are:
 John G. Heii. J. P. Whitney, John OldS. ". n. Swinehlrt, Juneau; Edw. de Groff, SitNa; William Collins, Douglas.
 lt will be noticed that four are from Ju- nsau, one from Douglas, and one from Sit kl. In calling particular attention Co this there Is no intention to find fault, either on the surface or between the lines. The rep. re.en,l,lon on this committee does Sklg> way DO injustice. for the reason that it was formed before Sklgway was. And lt woikei hard and made a desperate hght before lt obtained recognition from ;he na- tional committee and was permitted to send a delegate Jo the national convention. For all this good good work as we'll as that ot keeping up the organization. Jupslu peo- ple are entue1 Co kreat credit. Now Ju- nsau eourteSly invites Sklgwlv and all o,her settled communities ln the district to send delegates to the convention at Juneau.
 |, is hoped that the republicans of Sklg- way will take an immediate interest in this; will orgalizs and select a strong dele. ga,lon to the conventions men who will by ability command place on the com mlttee. and one oi whom may be selected as a national committeeman, to attend the national republican convention, to he held thls year at Philadel0hia.

A R.m.rkabl. Clock.

In one of the town halls in Japa' nese city there Is Q remarkable time piece. It is contained in handsome frame. 8 feet wide and 5 feet long. Il represents a monday landscape, very cleverly carried out In the foreground plum and cherry trees appear in bloom, while in the rear hill is to be seen. from which flows Q pretty cascade, i'm itated in crystal.
 From this cascade flows tiny stream, which wends its way between rocks and islands and finally loses itself in . stretch of woodland. In a miniature sky golden sun turns on silver wire, striking the hours on silver gongs as ii passes Each hour ismarked by a creep iug tortoise. A bird of rich plumagc warbles at tho close of the hour, and as the warbling ceases. mouse sudden ly makes its appearance. and, scamper' ing over the hill to tho garden, is socn lost to view. Altogether it is wonder ful piece of mechanism.

BoERS IN DAWSON.

The BhtIshers of the KlOn1 Ike are pre- fsrrlng almost exactly the same requests to the government, as those made by English men h South Africa tO OOm Paul, with the difference that the government thev are appealing to and against Is their own. And to make the comparison more com plete. those in DlwSon who are opposed to this appeal for their rights are elassed as BosrS.
 There was a lively meeting In Dawson on the 18th of February. for the purpose of snteavoring Co Secure for the people of the Yukon Territory some representation in the administration of its affairs. It was the first public step in this direction. al- though the subject Is one that has excited a good deal Of discussion for quite a long time.
 The Dominion parliament provided that the electors of the Yukon Territory should have the right Co elect two members Of the Yukon council. but the eoundl has neglect. cd to elll such an election. and ignored the wishes of the electors on the subject. All the m.etIng was called for was to insist upon the electors rights In the matter. and to ask tha, an election be eal'ei st onee.
 The first question asked vas how this was to be done. and a very natural one, for about a veir ago the people in Dawson spent about sz5.ooo in sending a delega- tion to Ottawa with a representation Of the needs Of the district. That was taken no notice of, nor were some half dozen other petitions, according Co statements made at the meeting
 Then a gentleman who has served in the English army for tive ltv.two wears, in all parts Of the earth. said that he knew of no place where the Br,on was deprived of his rights as he was in Dawson. "l came here to better my condition. he said. "and am treated like felOn." For this out spoken, manly statement he was denoune- cd as a eoer, and the sane epitEet was sppli.d to other subjects who spoke up for thelr rights.
 A better example Of the 5oer spirit eoJld could not have been given than that Of these boorish ehurlish defen iers of the Yukon council. and ii is gratifying to know that the people carried their resolu> tons with a very large majority.
 Now pleasing lt would be. how proud one would feel, to be able to say to these people defrauded of their rights: Be no longer subject to these English Boers; come across the boundary Into a free country. where every man has volce in it's gov ment. Where the"
