OPPOSITION TO ROOSEVELT.

The relation of 1903 election results to
the presidential possibilities for 1904 is an
interesting topic of political discussion, &C
cording to recent newspaper advices from
''the outside"
On the Republican side, while the tide
has been continuously rising towards the
nomination mark of President Roosevelt,
indications are not lacking that it may
turn before convention time. If there be
any logic in the result in Ohio, it is that
Marcus A. Hanna and not Theodore Roose-
welt is the leader of Republican policies
The ''by request" endorsement of President
Roosevelt at Mr. Hannas convention last
summer will not be forgotten in the light of
later events. While Hanna is mildly pro-
testing, his friends are becoming quite
vocferous Many things may happen with
in the next few months. No one imagines
that the Hanna Aldrich- Plat Senate leader
ship desires the nomination of Roosevelt.
For many months it has been simply ques-
ton whether or not they could safely oppose
and prevent it. Up to the 1908 elections it
seemed as if they dare not organize an at
>
are multiplying that the desire to sidetrack
Roosevelt is ripening into definite plan
1t would take an enthusiast to express the
belief that he could carry New York against
several Democratic nominees who might be
named. The fact is, that Theodore Roose-
welt, New Yorker, though he is, is more of
a Western than Eastern candidate, and in
this atmosphere of loud and vociferous
Roosevelt Republicans we are apt to over
look the more influential indications in the
East President Roosevelt deserves the
Republican nomination. So did Chester A.
Arthur, but he failed to secure it, A few
months ago opposition to Roosevelt was
scarcely possibility today it is more than
probability. Once let it take definite form
with an avowed leadership and the organi-
zation which would be available behind it,
and there would probably be presto change
in the political prospectus.

NO PARTISANSHlP IN CRIME.

The United States pOStOffice department
has been reeking with fraud and one of the
worst scandals of recent times has been un-
earthed. In concluding his memorandum
on these postoffice frauds and scandals, re-
Gently submitted to a Congressional com
mittee, President Roosevelt gave utterance
to the following, which every good Ameri-
can citizen will heartily endorse, whether he
live in Alaska or in the States. President
Roosevelt said
No crime calls for sterner reprobaton
than the crime of the corruptionist in public
life and of the man who seeks to corrupt
him. The bride giver and the bride -taker
are equally guilty. Both alike sin against
the primary law of the states safety. All
questions of difference in party politics sink
into insignificance when the people of this
country are brought face to face with a
question like this, which lies at the root of
honest and decent government On this
question, and on all others like it, we
can afford to have no divisions among good
citizens.
In the last resort, good laws and good
administration alike must rest upon the
broad basis of sound public opinion A dull
public conscience, an easy going acquiesc-
ence in corruption, infallibly mean debase-
ment in public life, and such debasement in
the end means the ruin of free institutions.
Self government becomes farce if the rep
resentatives of the people corrupt others or
are themselves corrupted Freedom is not
gift which will tarry long in the hands of
the dishonest or of those so foolish or so in
competent as to tolerate dishonesty in their
public servants. Under our system all
power comes from the people, and all pun
ishment rests ultimately with the people.
The liberation of the wrong, not the ex-
posture of the wrong, is the real offense.

POLITICS IN THE U. S. SENATE.

The Evening Post, of Washington, D. c.,
one of the ablest newspapers of the United
States, has been looking over the situation,
touching numbers, politics and terms of ser
vice of members of the United States sen
ate, with the following result
The new issue of the Congressional d.
rectOry shows that the Senate is now
squarely lined up between the Republican
and Democratic parties, not single mem
Der of the upper house having described
himself or being entered in the summary as
an independent of any description. The
membership is complete, with ninety SEN
ators. OF these, fifty-seven are Republicans
and thirty three Democrats. OF the Repub
licans, the terms of twenty three expire
March 5, 1905, sixteen expire in 1907 and
eighteen in 1909.
Ut the Democrats, seven expire in 1908,
fourteen in 1907 and twelve in 1909 Thus
the Republican ranks are more open to at
tack in the campaign of next year than are
those of the Democrats. The majority
party must hold twelve of it's twenty three
1905 seats in order to retain bare margin,
while the Democrats, holding all their own,
must gain thirteen from those twenty three
in order to wrest the control from the
enemy. These twenty three Republican
seats are from Rhode Island, Delaware,
California, Indiana, Michigan, Minnesota,
Wyoming, New York, Nebraska, Washing
ton, Maine, Ohio, Connecticut, New Jersey,
Utah, Washington, Maryland, North Da-
kota, Vermont, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania,
West Virginia and Nevada.
Of these, the Republicans have already
carried Ohio and lost Maryland. OF the
twenty one others, the Republicans may be
counted as fairly sure of Michigan, Mime

Grover Cleveland has eliminated himself
as presidential candidate, SO far as esti-
mates or conjectures regarding the Demo
cratic nomination are concerned. He is out
of the race unequivocally Nor is there
even the suggestion Of ''string" to his
declination, nor is there any likelihood that
he will at any late stage of the convention
follow the example of Horatio Seymour in
1868. Seymour was chairman of the Demo.
cratic National Convention that year, and
when the delegates began to press the nomi-
nation upon him, he exclaimed determined
ly: Gentlemen, your candidate I cannot
be-" Then he was nominated, and the nomi.
nation was accepted.
There can be no doubt that Mr.. Cleve-
land means exactly what he says. He de-
clares in letter to the editor of the Brook
Ign Eagle that he will not "in any circum-
stances or upon any consideration again

eight in all, or nine with Ohio, already Sc
cured. This leaves three to get from such
states of Republican tendency as Rhode
Island, Indiana, New Jersey and West Vir-
ginia, and such debatable states as Della
ware. California, Wyoming, New York, Ne
braska. Washington, Utah and Nevada,
The Democratic 1905 seats are from such
sure strongholds as Tennessee, Missouri,
Texas, Virginia, Mississippi and Florida,
with Montana fairly welded to Democracy
There would seem to be little or no hope
for the Republicans to increase their ma
jority in the upper house through next
years elections, and it is evident that they
must do good deal of active campaigning
to hold their present control.

become the nominee of his party for the
presidency Then he still further clinches
his determination by saying: my deter
mination not to do so is unalterable and con
elusive"
The cause or causes leading to Mr.. Cleve-
lands withdrawal hardly need be considered
now. 1t is more than probable that he
would like once more to warm the presiden-
tial chair, but he is too sagacious politician
to be deluded with the thought that another
such election is possible. He knows very
well that he would not ''receive call" when
it came to the question of his election.
There would not even be ray of hope for
him in view of the ineradicable antipathy Of
the American people to the three term idea,
to say nothing of the bitter hostility that
would be encountered from the Bryan wing
of the party.
What will be the next disclosure in the
Democratic kaleidoscope it is hard to pre-
dict An attempt is being made to throw
Mr.. Cleveland's cast-off mantle upon the
shoulders of Judge Parker of New York.
But Parker is hardly known outside of his
state. He would make respectable figure
head, but his name would arouse no Demo
cratic enthusiasm. Hill and Whitney are
the only other New Workers whom the party
would consider seriously, but neither OF
them is likely to secure the prize, such as it
may be.
The withdrawal of Cleveland elevates by
several pegs the chances of Richard Olney
of Massachusetts, or perchance, Senator
German, of Maryland.

the "WlLL OF the PEOPLE,"

The city council put the finishing touch
upon it's act of qualification on Monday
night, when it passed an ordinance repeal
weeks ago, when four of the members of
the council decided that they would per-
petuate themselves in Office until next No
vember.
AS is we'll known, the people of Nome
invoked the aid of the law to compel the
recalcitrant city council majority to per-
form their duties. When they saw that
against them they at once began to hedge
An ordinance was passed a week ago fixing
the date of the next municipal election for
April 5, next. The promise was then made
that registration ordinance necessary to
complete their show of good faith) would be
passed at the next meeting of the council
This has been done, but because of it's
passage no credit can possibly attach to the
city council majority. The force of public
opinion, coupled with the certainty that the
law was against their autocratic act in at
tempting to perpetuate themselves in power
for an additional period of eight months,
compelled them to rescind their utterly
foolish and unwarranted action.
The spectacles that these men have
made of themselves will serve as an object
lesson to the people of this community for
many years to come They have been
taught the lesson that public servants are
not absolutely the masters even of the peo-
pie of "a remote and isolated community.
Nowhere in United States territory are the
people more jealous of their rights and
privileges than in Alaska; and no small
coterie of misguided alleged politicians and
equally unintelligent advisers can foist
themselves and their indecent public acts
upon the people and expect to receive sup
port
