FUN WITH THE BOYS

A Cincinnati boy, says the Alas kan, who bit cartridge was merely shooting of his mouth. That's what was the matter with the Haines man .he other day, but there is no danger of certain Juneau editor shooting that mouth of his off with like com mendable effect.
 The Juneau papers, neither one of which receive other than skeletoniZed telegraphic news reports, which, have to be rewritten in their own offices, the same as those coming to The Miner, are still squabling as to which dishes up the best news to the public. It would be to laugh, all around, if they would print, verbatim, the news of single day just as it comes to them from the wire.

PERIODICAL SCARE

The fact that few cases of Bubonic plague have been discovered at San Francisco and Seattle is not cause for any great amount ot worry. The chances are that there has not been a period of six months in the past ten years or more that there has not been germs of the diseases smoulderipg ln San Francisco. But they have waited 10 be discovered by some sensational sanitary inspector who has advertised the discovery to the world and the re- suit has been big scare. During the ten weeks or more that the bubon ie plague has ''raged' in San Francisco there have been 8 deaths and the chances are that pneumonia, booze or typhoid have each claimed twice as many victims in the same time and nothing has been thought of it.
 The writer we'll remembers an epi- demic of yellow fever in Florida city when big scare heads appeared in all papers of the country about the plague stricken" place, when the facts were that the mortality was only 16 per cent. of those stricken and at the same time Madison. Wisconsin. was having an epidemic of typhoid in which the mortality was 56per cent and yet very little was being said about it.
 Of those who have died from Bubon- ic plague in Frisco. nearly all have been Orientals of the very lowest and most filthy classes people who are too dirty to live.
 It is right and proper to take steps to stamp out all manner of contagion. but a few cases of Bubonic plague in the slums of San Francisco and Of Seattle do not constitute cause or any alarm.-Whitehorse Star.

warm sympathizers in his views as to the value of the what is now British Columbia and the central provinces of Canada, if he had gone to Washing ton. He might have met Congress- man Benton, who told the members of congress that i've know that north of the straits of Juan de Fuca all is darkness and desolation. He might have met Daniel Webster who would have told him that Lit was a bleak inhospitabe region without harbor and not worth the expenditure of a single dollar of the hard earned money of the people of Massachusetts.

HORSE SENSE.

What is 10 be the future of the re publican party of Alaska? We ask this question with perfect confidence that cur motive in so doing will not be questioned. Politics in Alask ka Is almost a new science in so far as a large part of the population is con- cerned, and only those who come here with state experience have any real ideas as to what poiitictal party may claim their allegiance.
 However, the republican party has what might be called the running gears of an organization in Alaska and it is to this part of the pioneer organization we wish to call the at tention of our readers. The first skir1nish of the great political battle to be fought 10 a finish in 1898 came of few days ago at Juneau, There the warning factions whetted their knives and plunged them into each others inner castings. His aid scraped with
 
 went down upon their wrath. Mean while all the democrats sat back and grinned with satisfaction. The people in other towns in the territory were also pleased for they saw that Jun eau's strife would be her undoing.
 Now We hear il said. and with a large element of truth. that if the early history of Alaska republicanism is 10 be tinctured with venom from the arrows of hatred and malice. then will not the newer citizens of Alaska and the country have a part of it, but they will reject it as a thing lower than the lowest.
 So we believe we are right in sug gesting that fighting over the loaves is certainly i'll timed. and those who stand as leaders should have care, lest their unhtness be known. Doug las News.

Yet with volume of profitable business exceeding its capacity it ask ed for receiver. The presiden: of one of the leading Pittsburg banks says: 'The Westinghouse Electric company has had the same difficulty as that which other great companies have met. New money has been scarce. The Westinghouse company has merely over-reached itself, tried to do too much business on its avail able capital. An officer of the com pany says: They talk about our lay ing of men, but assure you that the output and the shipments of the con- pany for this month to date are 500, 900 ahead of the same period last year.
 Cnder such conditions as this pros perity becomes as nerve wraeking as
 it's opposite. and brings on the same perils. People who have too much to do are in pretty nearly as bad fix as those who have not enough. They are both worried over ways for mak- ing both ends meet and both are in danger of disaster. This is what the Boston banker meant. He thinks that a little something in the way of reac- tion or dullness would be godsend to the concerns which have an excess of business calling for extra capital and large borrowings.
 A comparative duliness or little stacking up in business circles, should it come. therefore need not be regard ed with alarm. We would all be more comfortable were we to adopt little less rapid pace. and probably would make just as much money.

1 WISE IDEA

The proposal. says the Outlook. of Mir. H. $. Boutell. one of the most active members of the House of Rep resentatives, to reconstruct the hall in which that body sits. is worth care ful consideration. No place could be
 more unsuited for the purposes of a deIiberative assembly in which discus sion is, or ought to be, the chief means of influence, than the room in
 which the Lower House of Congress now sits It is too large for an audi
 torium very few men can be heard either by the members or by the list eners in the galleries. As rule, a debate in the House is mere thread of continuous sounds through mass of intermittent and unrelated noises. The majority of members who are en- gagged in addressing the Chair appear
 from the galleries to be gesticulating in noiseIess pantomine. Next year there will be nearly four hundred mem bers Of the House, and the proba- bility is that this number will be somewhat increased during the next five years This means further ad- dition of heavy desks and cumbersome chairs. The House would gain im-
 mensely in public interest and effic- iency as debating body, and probab- ly for legislative purposes, if the large desks were removed and the members sat together as compactly as the mem- bers of the House of Commons, the
 most effectively arranged debating body in the world. Now that every member of Congress has office room and clerk, and that spondence is carried on largely by dietation, there is no longer any need for the desks. They are, as 8 matter of fact. provocative of an immense amount of disorder and inatrertion: the work done at them ought to be done out side. When a member goes into the House, he ought to go there, not to chat with his fellow members or to write letters to his constituents, but to attend strictly to the business of legislation, and to make his contribu- tion to the discussion. Everything else except what relates strictly to the business to the House and to partici- patton in the debate can be done in the Hobbies or ommittee-rooms, and ought to be done there. Physical con- ditions have very much to do with the
 efficiency of deliberative bodies, or with assemblies brought together for discussion. Anything that can be done to rid the House Of long-winded speeches to which members are ex- pected to listen, of the disorder which now prevails, and of the miscellaneous business transacted by members in their seats. will help to restore the House of Representatives to its form CT position of authority, and will in- crease its interest as deliberative assem bly,.

NOT MICH DIFFERENCE

According to the Victoria Colonist there does rot appear to be a great deal of difference between the Ameri can congress of fifty years ago and of the present. What it failed in the way Of appreciation of the value of Alaska natural resources then it now either ignores or resents whenever suggestion is made hinting at recog nition of the rights of her people-a resentment prompted, possibly, by a knowledge that these same people have been the instrument by means of which the ignorance and folly of their predecessors has been so fully demon sttrated. The Colonist hits two old birds with the same dornlck thu ly:
 Fifty years ago last Feb. uary there was debate in the house of commons in London about the condition of those parts of British North America over which the Hudson Bay company held sway. and il is rot uniuterestitng to recall what was said about the greater part of Canada at that time. Mir. La bouchere, for whom we suppose one -of Victoria's streets is named, informed the house that while the reigons refer red to were for the most part adapted only to fishing and fur raising, there was much mineral wealth in the coun- try and large areas fit for agriculture and for the support of an industrial population. Mir. Roebuck followed suit and so did Mr. Adderly. Then Edward Ellice, whose name is preserv- ed in a well known Victoria land mark, took the floor and told hii hon. orable friends that they did not know
 what they were talking about, for as a matter of fact the whole of the mort hern half of North America was wholly unfavorable to colonization. Of Vancouver Island he said: up to this time the company has ezpeDd- ed in bringing out settlers and coal miners and in performing the other obligation of their trust, according to their account, eighty thousand pounsd. All was outlay: there was no return. Opport nifty was there for investing money to an unlimited extent. Rocks might be turned into palaces, forests into gilded temples, and the land and water become alive with industry. But the wealth requisite for all this was not to be found on the island" It is interesting to note that later in this speech he described the island as "a kind of England attached to the continent of America"

TOO MUCH BUSINESS

A leading Boston banker was report ed two or three weeks ago. as express ing desire for a period of depression. saying that he had had too much of the kind of prosperity then prevailing, and which still prevails with few ex- captions throughout the country. 4 Boston paper in commenting on his remark says that it should rot be tak- en too literally, but that 3 great many people could and would sympatbize with what he meant.

The protest came for the greater part from those who want to be able to see whether the votes they bargain for and buy are de- livered according to contract. They have no use for fair vote and an honest count. Though, like the steam shovel, the voting machine can't cast a vote of its own, it can and does cast the vote of as many electors as care to avail themselves of its services. with out let or hindrance from the wardheel- CT, and counts them fair and square. Bye and bye. if this thing keeps on the honest vote buyer will be divest- ed of the last vestige of his sacred right in that direction.

THE KNOCKER

Nathan Jones the knocker
 Was the pest of Pleasant View Spent his time in knocking,
 Having nothing else to do; Knocked his next door neighbor,
 And he knocked his neighbors' cats |: Knocked his neighbors' children,
 Though he always called them
 ''brats ' Knocked the dry goods merchant
 And the grocer down the street, Knocked the town in general
 To every one he'd meet. Nathan Jones the Knocker Was knockeroolooloo From Knockerburg, Knocks county, Though he lived in Pleasant View. So at last they wearied
 These Pleasant Viewers all, Showed that out of Nathan
 They would have to take fall; Allowed and swore they'd curb him,
 And they lowed when they were through Jones would find they took of him A most un-Pleasant View. Nathan Jones the Knocker
 Was invited to ball. Had to walk mile or so
 To reach the public hall. All the masqueraders
 Lay in wait along the street, Carried each a shingle
 And wore winding sheet. Stepping from the darkness,
 Six or seven to the block, Every specter handed Nate
 A quite substantial knock Nathan Jones the Knocker
 When he reached the public square Found the ghosts assembled, To surround him then and there; Heard them sing chanty,
 And it gave him quite shock, For it's frequent chorus
 Was knock. knock, knock! Thus they knocked the knocker
 Whom so long they had endured Till they split their shingles,
 And Nathan Jones was cured,

about to introduce what appears
to be a well-thought-out scheme
of pensioning its employees.
The system to be adopted seems
to be liberal in its scope, and
will no doubt have the desired
effect of reducing the friction
between employer and employee
to a minimum. The agitator
will find it very difficult to in
duce men to act without due
