prisoners, save in cases where they
have been guilty of a breach of the
laws of war. The. Dutch language

The nationality racket in a pri
mary canvass is the poorest kind d
proposition, and wherever it is
set up the candidate advancing il
ought to be promptly sat upon by
the nationality of which he claims q
connection. We are all Americans
in this country and if that isn't a
good enough nationality plank in
any platform the candidate advanc-
ing another ought to be turned
down hard.

The warmest contest in the Re-
publican State convention, called
for July 1st, will be on the position
for State auditor, the three candi-
dates, Hon. j. F. Jacobson, Hon. S.
G.. Iverson and Odin Haldin, all hav-
ing about an equal number of friends
scattered over the State. Mr.. Jac-
OLSON will probably go into the con-
vention with lead of delegates,
however, it being pretty generally
conceded that he will have the Sev-
enth district solid, 147 votes, more
than any other district of the State,
while he will get votes from other
counties scattered throughout the
State. Mr.. Iverson' S long tenure
as deputy makes him many friends,
who are working earnestly for him,
while Mr.. Haldin s efforts to boost
the valuation of mineral lands in St.
Louis county, during his service as
county auditor, together with hav.
ing St. Louis county back of him,
will call votes his way.

dim their proud achievements though their memories will never die so long as the nation endures But these heroes cut no fantastic tricks. They simply did their duty as thsy saw it.
 These exceptions which prove the truth of our text There thousands of other men, in many walks of life who called great" but the world wags on, and they are forgotten well the good that they did.
 Man is puny animal after all. He is wise in his conceit; he is puffed up; he thinks,hat he is something, when he is nothing. If he really wishes to know how much he will be missed after he is dead draw it and look for the hole in the water.
 The strongest and best of men are, largely, the creatures of circumstances. They have their en. frances and their exits, and how it is that each in his time plays many parts. That is, they cut fantastic tricks. And then at the end they lie down in their last, long sleep and are forgotten. A man shorn of his strength is but reed that is shaken by the wind.
 In neighboring hotel lies a man that lowered in height above his fellows he of strong ysiaue and of fine mertal endowments; he was in the very prime of hte when hope and ambition are b hest hls friends many, and. he bound them to hin, with hooks of steel. Now he lies more helpless, If possible than babe overtaken by the clements he shorn of his strenth and vigor, illustrating in a vivid manner the folly of mankind ih being puffed up because of great physical ngth, high personal endowments or other qualities that are supposed to ma ke "great'

THE CLAIM JUMPING HABiT.-

Reports that are beginning to ach Nome are to the effect that that sl ecles of mankind which aict this country, and who locally known jumpers, were abroad in the land the beginning of the year. We are assured on excellent authority that entire creeks were jumped in the Solomon river country. On these creeks in several instances, were houses, and besides great deal of work had been done on many of them. In one instanc the owner of a claim and a companion were sleeping in tent. on the claim. Along came jumper and tied his location notice to willow busi.. The owner of the claim heard the noise made and went out. "Run, Bill" yelled the jumper, "or we'll be killed ["
 We have repeatedly taken the ground. that the man who relocates claim that open to relocation should be protected against the who sits in his abn and does his assessment work with the aid of notary public; but the jumper, the incubus of this mining country, does not come under this head.
 The jumper. nine times out of ten, is nothing but a blackmailer. He watches and waits for hs oppor- tunty and when the unslispecting claim owner is asleep the jumper leaves his couch to jump his claim
 The claim jumper mutt be discouraged by the weight of popular opinion and the creation of good healthy public sentiment against it is one way out of the difficulty. There are O.. hers which will recom- mend themselves to the reader.

THE CASE OF REV. FATHER ACOUET.

We free to confess that are not surprised to hear that Rev. Rather Jacquet has been returned to St Michael in the custody oi United States deputy marshal. No blame, however, can be attached to the local United States authorities. Acting upon the representations made to them that Rather Jacqu,t would receive proper care and attention at Holy Cross Mission, he conveyed. with, all possible comfort to that place. But it must be remembered that the people at Holy Cross, upon whom would de volve the duty of caring for insane man. were no! consulted to their desire in the matter for the reason that it was impossible to communicates with them.
 That mistake made in sending Father Jacquet thither is most apparent. We have heard bitter nvective used because he is being kicked from pillar to post" and many strctures have been made besause of Rev. Father Van Corps action in turning an insane priest of his order and church over to the civil authorities, he himself thus announcing by this act his unwillingness to perform what might be con- sdered his plain duty. But Father Van Gerp is yet to be heard from his point of view. We regret ex ceedingly that Father Van Corp deemed it necessary to send Father Jaequet back to the civil authorities not because the authorities will not give him the best possible under the circumstances but because we had shared he belief that his sad case would be com miserated by his broihersn his church and order, and that he would receive such care and. attention that the civil authorities could not provides

It is not to be viewed, opinion from purely sectaran standpoint. It $ an object lesson to be passed up to congress and the govern ment of the United States.

A PROMISING DISTRICT.

section of Alaska that little has been said about, though 1t embraces without doubt of the richest mineral belts in Alaska, is the Council City country. Its discovery antedated that of Nome but it caused no excitement. Steadily however but unobtrusively 1t has been forging to the fronty Being remote from. Boring coast it has hot attracted the same amount of attention as has the Nome section and others contiguous 10 it. The m> who have stayed with 1t" have been averse to booming 1t, being tent to await the developments, which they knew were bound to come.
 Ire last year Council City district has taken rapid strides to the front IS great gold producer. Ophr creek. which first attracted the attention of the miner. has. proved itself wonderful goltl-bcaring stream It has taken time, and patience and money 10 demonstrate this, but it bids fair rank in the near futur. as the richest reeyet discovered in Northwestern Alaska.
 Thefe is lesson to be learned in the history of Ophir creek, because of the very reason we have pointed out The creek was not particularly proms ing at the start, but steady work and intelligent mining methods have demonstrated its value. It will be the same with of other creeks in this section. Climatic and other conditions forbid speed returns, but that gold in abundance is here has already been amply demonstrated ill the work of de- velopment which the past two years have witnessed.
 We are apt to become restive, fault-inding and supercritical when dreams of gold not realized az speedily as we wish: But there is no royal :vad to wealth. The man who perseveres is the one who wins ultimately. It is the faint hearted and weak who fail. We challenge all criticism when we say that Northwestern Alaska will produce millions upon millions of gold notwithstanding every adverse condition which 5esets it. These will be surmounted.

THE IITTLENESS OF MANKIND.

Man, proud man, dressed in d little brief authority.
 uts such fla astic tricks before high heaven make the angels weep,'
 That's what Shakespeare, who all analogies wrote hundreds of years ago Men cut fantastic tricks a long time before Shakespeare's day They have been cutting the same kind of tricks ever since perhaps even more varegated than in SAakespsare's time. Man doesn't amount to muoh after all, does he2 And neither does woman. There's heap of vanity in., this world, and mankind has imbibed much of it. Prick the little bubble called vanity, and man in all his ttleness stands revealed.
 There have been mighty men sace this gray old world of ours set going. They lived they aourshed and they died. And of the millions upon millions who have furnished food for worms since the history of the world began to be preserved how many gre remembered today? ?? And of those, a knowledge of whom has been handed down to us, how little we know of their claims to greatness Some have lived for purpose and, though they are dead their works follow them; but they be counted upon the fingers. Caesar lived and died; his name remains. to us, but his glory was but epkemesSl. Alexander sighed for more worlds to conquer, and yet he is scarcely worth remembering Napoleon Bonaparte changed the map of Europe and died an exile whose memory execrated by millions. The puritan, Oliver Cromwell, is chiefly remembered as the slayer of king. not a. great reforrner and ascec dyspeptc, whose religious zeaiiameunted almost to an hysteria. The Duke of Wellington is remembered by those who have read history man of iron, uncompromising, of harsh exterior and of stern ,sesove; his memory survives chiefly because he pitted against Napoleon Bona parte, and because he won.
 And each, and all of the-men we have named cut fantastic tricks because they clothed in little brief authority.
 There has been small army of truly great men whose aim in life it to make two blades of grass grow where only one grew before But how many of us can even recall their names? Speaking of our own heroes, Americans recall the deeds of Wash ington his patriotism, his devotion his country, his long-sufferng patience and his ultimate triumph, pite the jeaousies of those with whom he associated and the tremendous odds arrayed against him.. But had failure been his, what then What place would he occupy in the worlds history today The memories of own Lincoln and Grant are green as they should be- but the passage of time will

YESTERDAYS BALL GAMES
NEW HAVEN WON FROM SPRING FIELD IN 4 TVELLPLAYED CAME.

The Score Was to o and No Runs Were
 Made Until the Last Inning-- Fine
 Pitching by Lufkin and Thomas Fi,zmaurioe's Two Bagger Timely.
 The New Haven baseball team de- feated Springfield yesterday afternoon at Savin Rock in one of the best games of the season in this city. The score was to 0, and the only run was scored in the last inning when one man was out. Springfield played an errorless game, and the pitching of the two slab artists was the feature of the game. Three hits were made off each twirler and these were all singles with the eX- ception of Fitzmaurice's crack in the last inning for two sacks. Both teams struggled for eight innings to get man over the plate, but the fine work of Thsmas and Lufkin prevented any scoring.
 In the ninth, after Springfield had gone out in order. New Haven started in to win. OBrien started the inning with a single to left and he was ad- vanced to second on Canavan's sacri- flee. Fitzmaurice came to the rescue with two-bagger and O'Brien trotted home.

ENLIsTING FOR THE NAVY.
How Boys Enter the Training Service
 The Runaways' Ways.

| How Boys Enter the Training Service The Runaways' Ways.
 Boys from fifteen years to seventeen years of age, with the consent of their | parents or guardians, may enlist No | deserters from the army or boys who have been convicted of crime or have
 served a term in a reform school, are
 eligible, It is not possible for parents
 to have their children enlisted into the navy without the full consent of the | boys, After the parents have been questioned the boys are always taken aside, the nature of the requirements which they are called upon to fulfill are explained to them, and they are asked if they are perfectly willing to enlist.
 Any wavering prevents their enlist ment After passing the physical eX- animation they are enlisted, and a card is made out, bearing on one side full description of the apprentice and on the other side space for his marks in every thing in which he is instructed, with column for the quarterly examinations, and a column for offenses and punish ment. The lads citizen clothes are re-
 turned to his parents, and he is fur
 nished with a bounty of forty-five dol
 lars worh of uniform clothing.
 For ten days he is in the newcomers
 squad That is when the boys are
 hardest to manage, as they suffer from
 homesickness. They learn that the life
 they have entered is not what it has
 been described in numerous dime nov
 els. They probably write home to their
 parents, saying that they do not like
 the navy.
 Parents do not always put their children in the navy because they want to get rid of them" said Mate Bartley, Tt is because the boys are anxious to enter the navy, and their parents are afraid that if they do not allow them to enlist they will run away from home and enlist under false names. They en- list without knowing what the navy is like. The navy department realizes this, and so general order No. 4l4 has been issued, making it possible for the parents to purchase the discharge of their children after they have served three months In the service. This is a privilege; not a right which may be de- manded.
 "A boy goes to a recruiting station and says his father and mother are dead and he wants to enlist He brings some man or woman as his guar dian. He is enlisted. Afterwards his parent find out that their boy, who has run away, is in the navy. They en- deavor to get him out They go to Washington and try to get him back on the ground that his enlistment was The navy department or- | ders a general court martial, the boy is of perjury and serves one l years imprisonment in a naval prison, | and then gets dishonorable discharge. 1 Times.
