A MISTAKE THAT IS MADE.

THE NUGGET has at least once before taken occa- sion to refer in uncomplimentary terms to genus of individuals which may be denomnated the social cadger.' For the most part the tribe, in the Northland, are not to the manner born" Them selves the creatures of accident, they evince ten dency to put on ''side" as the English say. They would like to be patronizng if they knew how, and in trying to be patronizng they show themselves to be nsufferabe cads and boors of the first water Let it be understood that this article is purely impersonal and is not directed at any individual. Each season there comes to community such this numbers of 'new people," and the mistake that some of them make is in apparently thinking that those they find here are at least half arbarian, uncouth uncuti- vated creatures, whose protracted residence Ion the frontier" puts them quite without the pale of the civilized sphere wherein the recent mportatons may or may not have been burning and shining lights. This being the case, the newcomer is sometimes led into making remarks about the personal qualities of the men and women who make up community such this which he she is quite likely regret after mature consideration, coupled with little experience and observation.
 It may be set down fact that some people who come from the great outside expect to find a heather folk in the North. But they are quickly disillusionzed. They find here just about the same proportion of intelligence and ignorance, population considered as found elsewhere. Virtue and vice extant in every land the good and the bad the Lords poor, the devils poor and the poor devils. No man can truthfuly lay claim to all the virtues, all the intelligence but may say for
 those who make up the pioneers of this far Northand that they need no to sound their praises and defamation without cause will find scant toleration

Nome's fifth Thanksgiving day was celebrated in the most ap- proved fashion. The turkey and cranberry sauce were in evidence, and there was lots of good cheer. Away back in 1S99-and it seems long time, though only four brief years have passed-there were few turkeys for Thanksgiving time, but the tried and true bean pot, faith full friend of the old sourdough, did not fail him. And the people were contented and happy, because they were thew" to each other and had not learned each others faults, foibles and follies.

whigs in 1S44 assailed by the Tyler schism in their party, which began in 1S41, and by the break of the anti-slavery whigs to Birney, account of the concessions to slavery in the Texas annexation case made by Clay, the whig candidate The demo- crat lost in 1S4S because of the barnburner bolt in New York against Cass, the regular democratic ddate. Cass' aspiration in the democratic conven- tion of 1S44 was leading cause in the defeat of Van Buren for the presidential nomination in that year when the candidacy, in the deadlock, went to Polk. Van Buren's New York friends, in revenge, put him at the head of the free soil ticket in S4S which split the democracy in the middle in that state and gave
 its electoral vote and the presidency to Taylor, the whig candidate. Despite Taylor's prestige on account of Buena Vista, he would have lost New York and Cass would have been made president had it not been for that barnburner schism, and everybody at the time whigs free soilers and democrats, knew this, and said it.
 "A widely different state of things prevails today
 from that which existed year before the election in
 the of the presidential of lS4O. 1S44 1S4S. Moreover, Harper's Weekys prognostcation of present conditions is faulty The prosperity which the republicans brought when they entered power in 1897 stands excellent chance to last many years longer Even if there should be reunion of the democrats they would unquestionablv be far in the minority in these days and there is not the fantest prospect of reunion. Nobody seriously supposes
 that Roosevelt will be weaker in the country at large than Mckinley was in 190O even though the silver question cannot be brought up in 1904 with the prominence which it hao in 1900 and in 1896. In the three of 1S4O 1S44 and 1S4S which cited there were certain obvious elements of weakness in the party in power which have counterpart today There is far greater discipline and cohesvensss in the republican party in 1903 than the democrats had in Van Burens time, or Folks or than the whigs ever had The republicans harmonious aggressive and enthusiastic The democrats as discordant and Respondent they in the campaign of 1864 and even so, for Vallandigham and the rest of the who framed the Mcclellan platform of that year exuberant what they called the pros poets of their party right along until election day. No sane democrat can be found in 1908 who is mak- ing any predictions of democratic success in 1904. If the democrats should next year diminish by half a dozen votes that 137 lead in the electoral college which Mckinley had three years ago, the two person. ages among the 150OOOOO voters who would be most surprised the democratic presidential candidate, whover he chances to be, and the man who will man. age the democratic campaig gn."

A POLITICAL "TONANGAEBER. "

THE NUGGET does not know that Judge James Wrkersham desires to be Alaska's first delegate in congress, although it has been so informed from sources that are entirely reliable. THE NUGGET does not care whether Judge Wickersham desires the position or not, but it is willing to say that if his ambition runs in that direction, it will be gratiied
 THE NUGGET as an independent newspaper, is in position to support any candidate that 1t deems suitable for the place, irrespective of party lines good democrat would be preferable to bad republi can and vice versa. If election to be held, we do not know whether the republican or democratic party would prove the dominant factor. The chances undoubtedly favor the republicans. That party is in power. It controls the offices in Alaska, factor not be despised when the getting of is to be considered.
 But as to Judge Wickersham's ambition, if such he has An irresponsible local publication says that he cherishes such ambition. It may be. We not in his confidence but stand ready to predict that in the first place. he could not the republican nomination, and in the second place, if he did his defeat would be certain Judge Wicksrsham, with all due difference to his ability jurist and poli tcian is never likely be factor in the republican politics of Alaska Indeed, doubt very seriously if he has any real desire represent Alaska at Wash ington. He is not actual bona fde resident of Alaska He halls from Tacoma, the political bone yard of many republican politicians. We will do him the justice to say that far we know Judge Wickersham never has claimed to be actual resi- dent of Alaska and may further state that after June next he will, in all probability, be at home in the City of Destiny. However, have no particular interest in the matter, and if he chooses to proclaim his residence in Alaska and wishes to be the tonan- gaber of his party in the territory, the privilege is his if he can make good.'

the wings of the wind that they might whet their beaks and feed on the carcass.
 The result will be evident. Liti- gation will be urged and encour- aged; the poor claim owner will be plucked to finish the devel- opment of the country will be re- tarded, and every material interest will suffer. The claim jumper is an acknowledged nuisance; the shyster who encourages him is a standing menace, the worst of the two. Abate the shyster nuisance, the man who encourages and in duces litigation for the sake of fee, either paid in hand" or in prospective. and the claim jumper will largely disappear.
 A case in point Several months ago one of these shysters induced a weak-minded man to bring a suit, telling him that he had an excel lent chance to secure a judgment. The client had a couple of hundred dollars and a fairly promising mining claim. The shyster got the money and the claim; the client lost the suit. The defend ants were put to the cost of defend- ing the action, all through the machinations of miserable petit logger. And what of his client ? He is sadder and perhaps a wiser man.

Judge Johnson, former district attorney and judge of the District court for the entire District of Alaska, needs no defense because of the attacks of an irresponsible publication, whose only bid for public support is it's ability to lie ignorantly and uninterestingly about every matter that it touches, whether it be ward meeting or a dog fight. The paper lies so un- blushingly and with so much ig- norant effrontery that it has long since become a joke, indeed.

OPPOSITE POLITICAL VIEWS.

The democratic Harper's Weekly figures out that the republicans have chance to lose the election of 1904. Says that paper: "The republicans do not feel today whit certain of eecting the next president than the democrats did in 1889, than the whigs did in 1843, than the democrats did in 1S47." And it adds "The conviction that the re- publicans will be fortunate in 1904 than were the democrats and whgs at the three elections named is based upon several assumptons first that the sting prosperity, the credit for which is claimed by the republican party, will continue until November of next year; secondly, that reunion of the demo- cratic party it existed in 1SS492 not be effect ed thirdly, that Mr. Roosevelt, should he be the didate of the republican party will prove strong was Mir. Mckinley in the pivotal states"
 The St. Louis Globe Democrat strong republi- can paper, in commenting upon the above, says:
 "That paper is far astray in it's assumptions. The panic of 1887, which renewed in 1S39 destroyed all chances for democratic victory in 1S4O. The

Out of feeling of kindly regard for the artist who supplies cartoons to the Weekly Joke, THE NUGGET has forborne criticisms, but it now gently suggests that there are some things which not even a native of Timbuctoo would endure with pa tience. At the very least, a dia- gram should accompany the "car- tOOns."
