The Engineering and Mining Journal says: The latest advices from the Nome District in Alaska are still unfavorable, and the main point noted is that very large number of people want to get away. The majority of these cannot leave, some because they cannot find room in the vessels sailing, and more because they cannot pay for their passage. Quite probably a lot of the latter will be helped by the use of a Government transport. Mean time there is little or no demand for labor, and it is impossible to earn anything. Owing to the enormous quantity of stores shipped to the place, prices of supplies have gone down almost to the level of those at Seattle; but that is of little benefit to a man who has no work and no money. Many dredges, pumps and other machines taken up to work the placers have been prac- tically abandoned.
 The fact is that the rush to Nome was enormously overdone, and many times the number of people who could possibly do we'll in the district made their way there. When the popula- tion has been sifted out, the float ing element has gone and the country left to a comparatively small number of steady and in telligent workers, it is quite pos sible that good returns may come from it, for a time at least.

MARK HANNA AND THE WAGE
 WORKER.

There has been so much abuse heaped upon Mark Hanna by the democratic newspapers that many people have come to be- lieve him to be a veritable ty- rant, a mercenary millionaire, and especially an employer of labor who bears down hard upon his men, cuts their wages, and ignores them when they have grievances.
 Mark touched on this subject in little speech at Chicago the other day and among other things he made this challenge: eff any man in the United States of America can bring into my pres ence a man who has ever worked for me and truthfully state and substantiate that 1 have refused to meet at any time and any where any man in my employ; that 1 have ever intentionally done any man a harm; that 1 have ever insisted on lowering wages to any man who works for me; or who can truthfully say that I have done evil to him, l will resign from the United States senate tomorrow. 1 made that proposition in 1896; 1 have found no takers and it is still open.

There are many schemes extant to cure horse of the kicking habit, but the following plan, emanating from the brain of a Kansas man, is the most nov el yet to be devised:
 "The best means is to give him a sandbag to exercise upon. Fill grain sack half full of sand and swing up to the ceiling with rope, so that the sack will hang just where the heels of the horse will have good play upon it. Tie the horse in the stall with good strong rope and let him kick. At the first kick the bag will swing away and re- turn, giving the horse as good as he sent. For the next minute or so there will be battle royal, but the sack will hold its own, returning all it received with interest. The horse in bucking against the real thing will soon come to realization of the fact, and will be thoroughly cowed. Leave the sack be- hind him for week CT so and then re- move. If he ever tries to get into his old habits, give him another punch bag to exercise with.

IMPERIALISM" A BUGABOO.

An Interesting and Patriotic Let
 ter from Lieut.. Darlington,
 now in the Philippines.
 The following is a portion of a letter from 'Lieut. l.. A. Dor rington, of Company A. ,34th Vol. Inf, U. S..A., now in the Philippines. to his father, F. M |. Darlington, U. s. land register at Alliance, Neb. Lieut.. Dor rington is a nephew of J. W. Darlington, publisher of the SENTINEL. He writes in part:
 "There is not an anti-imperial- ist living who is more sincere in his feelings and regards to the people of the Philippine Islands or will go further to protect their interests and welfare any more freely than l will. And 1 believe beyond doubt they will come out all right, but were the burdens of government thrown upon them to-day they would break com pletely down, and were we now to abandon the islands, those who have been our friends and those who believe in American supremacy, together with their families, would be butchered by these bandits, called ''patriots" in the United States. Let me say that we cannot under any consideration abandon these islands, and why keep our peo- pie excited on this subject? If those agitators among you would with the same energy assist in development and betterment of the conditions facing us our na- tion at home would be bettered, our army would be happy in knowing that their patriotism and devotion were appreciated at home.
 There is one saying that rings in my ears, whether in the noun tains or in the swamps, along the battle line or away from it, "Our country, may.she be always right, but, right or wrong, our country"
 A soldiers heart is not made glad when he reads iii the papers from home that he is a cutthrOat and fighting a people who are fighting for their liberty. That is a lie! The people here want our liberty, our flag as their flag, and our laws to govern them. It is a band of highwaymen and cutthroats, who pose no place as patriots except in the papers and minds of some of their friends in the United States that we are fighting, and when their friends there are once silenced you will hear of and see the beginning of the end of all this trouble ill the Philippine Islands.

The Los Angeles Herald has been complimented by the Ma tional Republican Committee se- lecting a Herald cartoon to use on it's campaign literature. The cartoon represents smiling Uncle Sam holding up roll of paper on which are the words, "U. $. census report-1880, 50, : 155, 283; 1890, 62,622, 250; 1900, 75,000, GOO" Below is the in scription, 'It sort O looks as if I'd have to expand" 4 good many cartoons appear in the pa pers that are very far-fetched, but this one expresses a good deal and doesn't require 8 detec- tive to find the point to it. It is all right.

The Congressional Fight Will be a
 Triangular One.

Triangular One.
 The last hope of compromise between the Smith and Wilson forces seems to have vanished and both men are in the field as candidates. It appears that a conference was arranged for and the Hon. Marcus with some of his adherents was to meet Col. Wilson at Phoenix and proceed to Prescott on last Sunday, and try to reach an agreement by which one or the other would withdraw, but when Smith reach ed the capitol Saturday he found that his opponent had left the city. He had also left word that as he had no part in the break ing of the party he would fool away no time in the mending of it. The Prescott conference was therefore abandoned and all hope that may have been in the breasts of the democrats of Ari- zona of electing a delegate to congress is therefore gone hence. The race will be easy for Gov. MurnhV.

 In accordance with published call the republicans of Yuma county met at the court hO0se in Yuma on Saturday, September 29th, for the purpose of nominat- ing candidates for the various county and precinct officers to be voted for at the election in November. A spirit of harmony pervaded the entire proceedings and the result was a ticket which can be said to possess greater clements of strength as whole than any that could have been put in the field. The party en- thusiasm of the delegates was very pronounced, and on the whole there is every reason to believe that every nominee will be elected by a good majority.
 Following are the proceedings:
 The convention was called to order by Robt. Hatch, chairman of the central committee. Upon motion Ira Smith was elected temporary chairman and George Bean, secretary.

large outstanding short interest
manipulation against the shorts was also
very obvious and in the hands of strong

entire credit for this revuIsion must he
given to the growing conviction that ac-
Tive negotiations are going forward be-
tween the anthracite coal operators and
the miners and that basis OF settlement
mas been formulated with good hope of
success.
The strength or the stock market.
growing into Duoyancy, was continuous
AFTER an opening dip in prices. due to the
