The Third Term.

F.ditOr Of HE NCGGEE
 Since the earliest days of the Ameri- can republic there has been an unwrit shall be no third term: thus even Grant, the hero of AppomattoX, one of the greatest generals that ever lived, was retired into private life after serving the nation faithfully for two terms as it's president. We find this precedent followed in every state, county and city in the union. The principle is un- American: we are a government of the people, for the people and by the peo- pie and all over the length and breadth of our land the edict has gone forth, mo third term"
 Among the candidates in the coming city election for council We find enc who has served two terms as council man. The writer is free to say that if the said councilman had the interests of the city truly at heart, he would re- tire. But no proud aspirations, never ending hopes lure this man on to reach some wished-for, though, alas, perhaps, imaginary goal, for in the greed for personal ggrandizement. he is apt to fol get that he.is, or ought to have been, but servant of the people.
 The coming election will mark q critical era in the history of Nome. With the election of seven honest representative business men this town may be redeemed and disenthrailed. Nome may be born again, and if prop erly and economically governed, will, in q short time, not only get on cash basis, but pay up the indebtedness which now stands against as. Let us have a new deal; let us have men with pure heearts and clean hands whose watchwords are ''retrenchmcnt and economy men not seeking personal or political honor, or trying to further their own interests at the expense of the community. Strife and discord must be banished. No candidate should receive support who is pledged to any particular man for any appointive of flee. Finally, brethren, let us live up to the great unwritten American law. "no third term.' JUSTICIA.

Continuous Storms.

The continuous storms for several weeks past have rendered travelling with horse teams practically irposs- ible. Since Saturday evening last a southerly wind accompanied by snow and rain, has prevailed, and the trails are worse than ever if possible. An attempt was made last week to open the horse trail between the coast and Council, but the present storm has materially delayed operations.

The Norwegian Skis.

The superiority of skis over snow shoes has been thoroughly demonstrat- ed, and the former are rapidly displac- ing the latter in this part of the coun- try. The necessity of some kind of i'm plcment to keep the musher on top of the snow when he leaves the trail has created such steadily increasing de- manS for this sort of Norwegian foot gear, that it may be of interestto know how ski should be shaped to best serve it's purpose.
 The length of ski is Sl feet; the width at the front, where it commences to turn up, I inches: at the middle, 3i inches at rear B inches, It is bent up in the center about l! inches so that where the man steps on it, its lower surface will press the snow evenly. The thickness at the center is about 1s in cheS, tapering to both ends to about ] inch, though these dimensions should be made to depend on the elasticity of the material and the weight of the wearer The toe straps are about one inch back of the centre of gravity, mak- ing the ski balance readily to the front when lifted by the foot.
 The dimensions h ere given are those of skis for the man of average weight are those of the most popular Norwe- gian skis and the style of ski used in the Norwegian army during winter maneuVerS.
 Besides the above features ski gen erally has a groove about l inch wide and inch deep, running the full length of the center of itS under surface. This feature serves many purposes in mak- ing the ski serviceable. but is not es- sential. It's main objects are to keep the ski from slipping sideways, and to render it lighter without proportion ately weakening it.

Causes Disaster on Cruiser
Olympia.

. Norfolk, Va, Sept. 14.-The explosion
of a barrel of alcohol on the super
structure deck of the cruiser Olympia
in the wooden dry dock at the navy
yard, Saturday night at S:55 o'clock,
killed Corp. Yerkes, of the vessel ma
rine guard, and a sailor. Yerkes was
struck in the head by a stave from the
barrel, and fell into the burning mass.
He was roasted to death. The other
three men were also struck by flying
fragments of the barrel, but were
knocked away from the center Of the
fire, and thus two of them escaped ia
tai injury, but Seifert was horribly
burned and so injured that he died
Sunday afternoon. He will be given a
military funeral. The master-at-arms
of the vessel is missing. The ship
caught fire from the explosion, and lost
most of her canvas deck awnings. The
decks we're slightly injured, but she
was not otherwise damaged. The work
the greatest peril. The alcohol was
stolen from the navy yard by several
sailors and carried aboard the Olym--

THE National Woman's Christian

"The form of petition to be signed

and says:
"IF 1T BE FOUND THAT HE IS A
POLYGAMIST, WE ASK THAT HE
BE EXPELLED FROM THE, SENATE
AS A VIOLATOR OF THE LAWS OF
HIS OWN STATE"
But there is ample ground for ex-
polling, according to the women,
whether he is a polygamist or not. The
petitions will read: Further, the Nor
