BATTLING THE DRY BONES.

The democrats of the East and South have been trying to get together along conservative lines, so as to present solid front "the enemy" in the president al contest which will be waged next year. Whether he attempt will succeed not remains to be seen. The Democratic party has been dsunlted not to say disrupted, for several years now, and the breach created in 1896, when the silver spread the land is still quite wide and deep. It semes to have been demonstrated that it is folly think that the country can be carried for the Democratic ticket by antagonzing the Cleveland following of the Fla t and by making the appeal to the Populism of the West It would therefore seem that the star of Will liam J. Bryan is no longer in the ascendant that he will be eliminated factor in Democratic national politics The thing is natural; indeed inevitable. The Southern Democratic leaders had any real sympathy with Bryan or what is called Bryanism for want of better They accepted the doc Urine that Bryan preached precisely as they have ac- cepted radically different articles bearing the same brand. They gave him the eectoral votes of their states precisely as they would give any Democratic nomnee their votes.
 The Democrats seem to have an idea that a combination be Affected which will at least have fighting show of success They see that the trusts and heavy combinations of capital generally are not very Jealous adherents of Roosevelt They realize that if Eastern Democrat of the Cleveland stripe, acceptable to the trusts and combinations mated on the Democratic ticket he would the support of the great industrial and money combina tions as against Mr. Roosevelt, whom these trusts cannot hope to influence in the slightest degree.
 The Democratic party is looking for votes, because it needs them. Judging by the results of the fall elections it has nothing to hope from the West. It is assured of the South any platform and with any candidate therefore under these circumstances an alliance between the South and the East is the most natural thing in politics.

ts BEST MEN FOR THE PLACE.

Nome promises to be for many years the metropo- ls of this portion of Northwestern Alaska, although our Teller friends confidently tell us that the town oi the future will be located on Port Clarence bay is not necessary the purpose of this article to enter into discussion of that matter. Suffice to say that Nome has the lead and she will probably maintain it for years to come. Nomes Importance, therefore, as
 chisf distributing point for large portion of Seward peninsula, will be conceded. The distribution of sup plies will increase largely with the coming years
 a, the interior country is opened up and developed
 The building of railroads will aid not only the de velopment, but the distribution of commodities. The question of competent government for Nome is con seouently an important one although we will admit that there are not few people in Nome who will not view it in this light. Neither do we care It does and will make considerable difference as to who is ,slscted to the municipal council In this article we

WITH THE "OUTSIDE." !"

In the course of a few brief weeks Boring sea will ohce be unlocked and communication estab-
 shed with that distant country which we in Northwest
 ern Alaska call "the outside The term s somewhat of misnomer, yet it is appropriate withal, since are we not for the long winter months effectually shut in. and therefore not on the inside? The term outside applied to the ''centers of civlza- tion" especially those of the United States, was brought from the great Yukon interior. where the term think is strictly appropriate; it seems to fill long felt want, and may add does it here on the shores of Boring sea- In southeastern Alaska hears the term outside" applied to Seattle and the states" The people there speak of going below" as though they about to go down cellar or into the bowels of the earth. The .'out-ide," applied to this section of Alaska has to stay not be- cause it is the best term in a geographical or de gnative sense, but because it meets seems to meet the situation exactly Therefore let it remain

ALASKA AND HER PROPHETS.

. ,; When one reads the ponderous dissertations which exhale from newspaper offices concerning Alaska, and the perturbation caused in the national capitol, whenever the name of Alaska IS men toned, the first impulse is to laugh consumedly. These "hefty" intellects must burn much midnight oil in the pursuit of their lucubrations. And yet their labor, loved or otherwise, is mainly lost The powers that le at Washington, D. C., are not wasting much gray matter over Alaska or Alaskans, The world wags along in it's usual way, whether or pot the name of Alaska is there aheard once week or seri-annually. These people in Alaska who worry, or profess to worry much over Alaska affairs need watching; they may also need little fixing Alaska will. in time, work out her own salvation. It will take time but it will come. The federal government and congress. we may be sure, not lying awake O nights pondering oyer the fate of this territory We may be ermitted to express our humble opinion that they are alas and alack too much engrossed over what they no doubt consider graver and more weiphty problems. The statement may be ap- piled generally to the people of the states" They, too have troubles and problems of their own to solve, and, therefore they must needs attend to their own knitting.
 These prophets who sporadcally arise in Alaska, flotsam and jetsam fortunes or msfortunes tide, and whose words of unwsdom the voice of many crying in the wilderness, need neither abash
 
 nor astonish anyone. There are publications in Aaska which like children sitting in the market place and crying eve have piped unto you and ye have not danced" They want to be the pipers, but they like to see the others dance to their music, though it be no more soothing than the vail of a Chinese fiddle the droning of bagpipe. Alaskans will learn after time that they must ehelp them selves Self constituted representatives from Alaska at Washington do more harm than good. No two of them are agreed upon any matter; all have their personal axes to grind; most of them in pursuit of personal gain personal graft They flash across the political sky at Washington like tenth rate meteor and leave no trail worth following by the others that perhaps follow the next year. Congress wilta up the burden of Alaska one day and justice willbe mstedeut, grudgingy no doubt, but the ter rtory will get its dole; when this comes however, we do not believe that it will be because of the work done by sei-elected representatives from Alaska"

AN ALL.AMERICAN ROUTE.

The postoffce department is still experimenting with the salAmerican mail route" between Katmai and St. Michael. Last fall contract was let for three round trips between those places. The mail contractor who left St. Michael last November re- turned to that point on March 10. He experienced serious hardships and his experiment" far as speed in the conveyance of mails is concerned failure. We all remember the promises made in the winter of 1901-02 by the Trans-Alaska Co.,, and the fasco which resulted to the disgust of the people of this section and to the governments loss. The estab- lishment of an all American mail route between Kat mai and Nome think is necessary, but under the methods heretofore pursued by the department it be accomplished, chiefly because the contractors who essay to deliver mail not equipped for the undertaking. Given the proper equipment, such as the establishment of relay stations at convenient dis
 tances along the route there is absolutely reason why mail should not reach Nome from Katmai in thirty days or less. But the men undertaking the
