by white men, the pall-bearers be-

Sun remarks: civilian Hucka-
by worked hard, was strictly hon

minded his own business. He
never meddled with politics His
credit is said to have been as high
as that of any man III Terrell

tency. He was respected and es-
teemed by the whites. If negroes
would initiate the methods OF VIM.

money. let politics alone, the me

have often eaid, but whenever they
have said it somebody III the
Sans section has always become
excited and shouted back that un-

Charity of speech is as divine as
charity of action. To judge no
one harshly, to misconceive no
mans motives, to believe things
as they seem to be until proven
otherwise, to temper judgment
with mercy-surely this is quite
as good as to build up churches,
establish asylums and found col
leges. Unklnd words do as much
harm as unkind deeds. Many a
heart has been wounded beyond
cure, many reputation has been
stabbed to death by a few little
words. There is charity which
consist in withholding words, in
keeping back hard judgment, in
abstalning from speech, if to speak
is to condemn.

Of course one must admit that it is absurd to question the ability of these officers to properly interpret the laws, but there have been cases known where a liberal interprsta- tiOn of the law has been made by this same court, where the facts in the case seemed to justify such ac- tion, aud it is possible that the city officers were merely working in the interests of the city, and had no intention of questioning the univer- sally acknowledged ability of the clerk of the court or any other gov ernment official.

COT rNCILMEN.

As an example of what Alaskans have to contend with in trying to educate the people of the states out of the universal idea that Alaska is an ice-bound, unproductive coun- try, inhabited only by few goddess men, We publish the following verse from a piece of poetry enti- tied, "A Plea for Alaska" publish ed in the Home Mission Echo, a religious paper printed in Boston:
 "A silent land.
 Send sweet speech of the word of
 God,
 Through snowy silence. OCT bloom
 less sod.
 The gospel rays through our land; Send its sweet music to those cold
 strands,
 That ice-bound land"
 The author in the remaining verses indulges in unlimited frosty description. and the general inn pression conveyed is that Alaska is vast sheet of ice and the inhabit- ants all heathens.
 The object of this plea is to raise funds for the missions, but it strikes Us that it would be more consist ent with the teachings of Christi anity to state facts when making d plea for pecuniary assistance.
 The Christian Young Soldier. another mission paper, in a write up of Valdez. publishes half-tone of small log cache. only one cor ner of which is visible through the snow. and labels it, We could scarcely see our little church." Ii the author Of that article, after talk ing the picture of the cache had turned his face in the opposite di- rection he would have had no diff ticulty in seeing his church, al- though it was three blocks away.
 The article goes on to describe how the people had to be dug out of their cabins, how the trails in the streets were higher than the tops Of the houses, and dwells at length on the terrible winds which oblige people to remain under cov- er. The glacier i. mentioned with a proper iciness to the description, and few words devoted to the ter rible trail into the interior.
 The object in this description of the terrors of life in Valdez is to work on the sympathy of the char itable minded and raise money, but enough harm is done the coun- try and the inhabitants, by pub fishing such reports, to overbalance many times tine good done by tine missions.

The Prospector the Real Man of
 Civilization.

Civilization.
 The prOslector may be said to be the pioneer of civilization. Con- quering armies may devastate a territory, depopulate it or subdue the inhabitants to a certain extent, but they never civilize; the real men of civilization are tine men who delve in the mountains for the pre- cious metals; the men who pene- trate the widest regions, explore the rugged, uninviting mountains or tramp with scanty rations over the hot and arid sands of the des- ert; who dare to tread where the foot of civilized being has never trod before; who sleep for months at night under the arched canopy of heaven after q hard days toil; whose bones are sometimes found by one Of their brethren on a mOun- tain side, in lonely canyon, or on the burning desert, whither hope had beckoned him; whose reward is the discovery of mineral, perhaps after years of laborious search, a discovery which, when he gets back to civilization, exhibits his samples and makes known his find, results in rusli-a new camL-mines being opened, machinery being erected, and the noise of the stamps and busy population of the new town soon banishes the desolation which surrounded the prospector when he slept on the ground the night before his diacovery.-Ex.

Soon Connect with Nome.

Announcement of the completion of wireless telegraphic connection between St. Michael and Nome is daily expected by the local U. s. signal corps officers, says the P-l. It is we'll known that Seattle and St. Michael have been in telegraph ic communication all winter save during brief intervals when the wires were down. Very little work on the wireless telegraph stations at St. Michael and Safety harbor remained to be done when R. D.. Ross, who had charge of the project left the former port a passenger of the steamship Roanoke. Poles ris- ing io a height of 220 feet had been erected at both points and much of the equipment for sending and re- ceiying messages had been install sd. The distance between those points is no miles.
 More or less wireless telegraph material and equipment went north on the steamship Meteor, which however broke down in Behring sea, failing to reach her destination. Ii she had been able to complete the voyage the line would have been finished and put in operation several weeks ago. The officers of the local signal corps would not be surprised to learn at any time that the system had been perfected with the material at hand, through the receipt of message direct from Nome.

In another column we publish a description Oi the building in which the Alaska exhibits will be shown at St. Louis. In spite of all the prophecies of editorial writers, we are to have first class building. with plenty of room for exhibits of our natural resources, and all con venience in the way of reception rooms, etc. Now if the papers that have devoted their space to critic isms of the proposed Alaska build ing will use as much energy in at- tempting to secure proper exhibit of our mineral and other resurces, they will be doing some good for the country they are supposed to represent. Even Gov. Swineford can find nothing in the makeup of the building to offend his Oliactory organs, unless it is the native cedar of which the stairway is to be constructed.
