The PASSING OF HANNA.

The death of Senator Hanna, of Ohio, is
to be deplored, because he was a man Of
parts, and a conspicuous figure in not only
Republican politics, but in contemporaneous
history, as well. Hanna was fOrceful
man, and he will be missed in the councils
of his party, although there are some, no
doubt, who will view his passing with re-
greet, mingled with certain degree of resig
nation to the Divine will.
Senator Hanna, during the few brief
years that he directed his party as chair
man of the National Republican Com
mittee, proved himself a man of great ex-
ecutive ability, so resourceful as to be able
to meet any and all contingencies as they
arose. His management of the Republican
campaign of 1896 was such as to bring him
into immediate prominence. 1t acquired for
him national reputation as a political ma
nipulator of more than ordinary ability. His
methods were such as would not commend
them to the ultra good but Hanna was
politician from choice, it would seem, al
though he entered politics comparatively
late in life. The modern practice of ''poli
a Sunday school, and we are, therefore, of
the opinion that Mr.. Hanna as "a political
exponent of the principles of his party, was
neither better nor worse than the average
politician, wherever or whenever he NAV be
met. His political faith was of the strenu-
Gus kind, and whatever he found that he
had to do he did it with all his might I'm
scrupulous, no doubt he was, but the pur-
suit of "practical politics does not permit
the practice of the Golden Rule, and Mr.
Hanna never attempted to apply it, In his
political career there was no mincing hypoc-
risy, and he never showed mercy to enemies,
within or without his party. He may have
have lied upon occasion, but he never
"funked.'
Senator Hannas death, we believe.

MANY PEOPLE ARE COMING.

According to reports already received
from the "outside," there promises to be a
large influx of people to this section next
spring Advices received by THE NUGGET
are to the effect that at no time in the his.
tory of this section has greater real interest
been manifested. But the blush is off the
boom, and those people who are looking
toward Alaska are doing so because of the
advantages it offers for investment
The placer mining sections of Seward

Taken as a whole, therefore, the outlook
for legitimate mining and legitimate bust

at this time. In fact, it may be pointed out

A PRESS PARLIAMENT.

THE NUGGET is in receipt of letter
from Governor Brady, enclosing copy of
a letter from Charles M. Reeves, of ST..
Louis, secretary of the committee on the
Worlds Fair state and territorial exhibits,
in which it is stated that it is the intention
to have the week beginning May 10 next
known as the 'worlds press parliament"
week. "The National Editorial Association
and several state and territorial assoca-
tions have already voted to meet in ST.
Louis, and some of the greatest foreign
journalists, editors and publishers will be
present at the meeting" Every effort it is
added, will be made to make the occasion
the most notable in newspaper history.
Mr. Reeves states his desire to have the
members of the press association of Alaska
to meet and participate in the press parlia
ment. Alaska, however, has no press asso-
ciation and even if it had it would be ex-
tremely difficult for the Northwestern
Alaska members to reach st. Louis as early
as May TO- And speaking of press associa-
tons, Alaska should have one, but it would
probably be found an extremely difficult task
to effect its organization. Times and condi
tons must materially change, we think, be-
fore it is brought about

That no one takes the Booster Fakir seri-
ously is evidenced by the fact that in yell
low article recently it told how "three men
and dog" had drifted out to sea when the
ice started southwark week or so ago. 1t
also told in the same yellow way how sew
eral men had been rescued by 'some men in
boat at the edge of the ice-pack,' immedi-
ately opposite the town. All of which was
an unadulterated fake. If you see it in the
Booster Fakir it surely isn't so.

AN OLD AND NEW MOSES.

When Senator German was returned to
Congress last year he was hailed as the new
Moses who would lead the Democrats of the
senate out of the demoralized condition into
which they had fallen and present them in
a solid phalanx. During his former service
he was the acknowledged leader, and he
ruled at his own will His authority was
not questioned, and he was able to say to
the Republicans what the minority would
do in a given contingency. Now he finds it
different, for since his temporary retire
ment new men have come into the senate
who are not disposed to submit to the die
tation of the old-time leader. Dubois of
Idaho. Carmack of Tennessee. Patterson of
Colorado, Rawlns of Utah, and one or two
others, seem rather inclined to force their
radical views, and having tasted the sweets
of power are loath to follow in the old
paths.
In all the Democratic caucuSeS that have
been held the Western Democratic senators
have asserted themselves and have fire.
quently disputed the advice of the Mary
land leader. He has not even had his own
way in committee assignments. for while he
has been named on number of important
committees he failed in his great desire to
return to his old place on the committee on
appropriations AS to matters of party
policy he seems to have succeeded to an
even lesser degree, having failed utterly to
unite the Democratic senators either upon
the Cuban reciprocity bill or the Panama
matter.
At the other end of the capitol, John
Sharp Williams, of Mississippi, the Demo
cratic leader has had better success and
gives promise of welding his forces with
better effect than has been witnessed on
that side of the house in a number of years
Although it was commonly believed that a
large number, if not majority, of the
house Democrats were opposed to the
Cuban treaty and would vote against it, Mr.
Williams, having failed to pass the amend
mentS he offered, secured the vote of all the
Democrats but seven for the measure on the
final ballot. He likewise had the wisdom to
make an issue of the Panama situation, re-
Numbering the disaster that followed his
predecessors, Mr. Richardson's, attempt to
split the country on the governments Phil
ippine policy.
Mr.. German, who was heralded as the
outset, and the man who was not expected
to be leader has succeeded, and he has all
the hOnors thus far. But such is ''politics -
