A SENSIBLE VIEW OF TT.

A fpis eNA'i iDiLiS LII " oi Il.
 The Chicago Tribune, one of the most influential Republican newspapers in the whole country, has been setting forth some vigorous opinions in con- nection with the early discussion of the presidential campaign of 1908. It has taken flat stand against the third term idea. It assumes that the president meant just what he said when, the night of election in 1904, he announced that he would not be a candidate for the great office again. The Tribune believes that the un- written law against third terms is good law, and that there is now DO excuse or reason for contemplating any violence of it.
 Going a step further the Tribune, which, it may be remarked, has usually stood squarely behind the president and his policies, takes the position that the presidential race is an open affair and cannot be properly considered closed in favor of any one man. It points out that number of men in public life discussed as posi- bilites are excellent presidential timber. There is Secretary Root as well as Secretary Taft, and Governor Hughes and Governor Deneen, Fair banks, Cannon, and one or two others. Some of these stand little Likelihood of being struck by presidential lightning, but the point the Tribune makes is that public opinion should not be forced, but should be allowed to shape itself in regard to them in a natural manner.
 While the undercurrent of the Tri- bune's comment indicates some dissat- isfaction with the methods of Secre- tary Taft's friends, still it is frank to recognize in the secretary a man whose personal attachments and whose fine record in public life entitle him to be considered among the leading candidates. Furthermore the Tri- bune believes that there will be no trouble about Secretary Taft getting the need of recognition due him, without any undue forcing in hls be- half. Many other good friends of the portly secretary also believe that there has been rather too much fore ing of his political fortunes of late weeks. There is good reason for be- lief that Mr. Taft thinks the same thing, and does not sympathize with many things that have been done, ostensibly in his behalf. His own plan of conduct is wise one. He proposes to go ahead about his bus iness-which is the gover nment's business-and to let his higher politi- cal fortunes take care of themselves. This issue will doubtless prove that this is the best manner in which 10 promote these fortunes. The general lay of the ground seems to favor Mir. Taft, and if things are just allowed to take their natural course, in the summer of next year it would not be surprising to find him face to face with presidential nomination

EXCHANGE GOSSIP.

M artin Conway, present mayor of Skagway, and until quite recently one of the leading merchants of that place, has sold out his business and will hereafter devote his attention exclusively to his mining interests he is a large owner in Rainy Hollow properties, some of which are under bond to English capitalists.
 A sad event occurred at White horse, Y. T., on the 9th inst. in which two men lost their lives under peculiarly sad circumstances. It appears that William F. Grainger had sold, or bargained to sell, the Copper King mine, situated four miles out from Whitehorse, and that it had been unwatered for the pur- pose of enabling an underground in- spection to be made, and that for some days previous to the day on which the fatalities occurred, a fire had been kept in the shaft, in which no work had been done for several
 
 years, for the purpose of thawing out a thick coating of ice which encased it's sides, for the purpose of putting it in condition for inspection by Min ing Expert w. H. Wiley for the Pennsylvania Syndicate which lately bonded the property at good price, fair cash payment having already been made to Mr. Grainger. At be- tween Il 30 and P o'clock yesterday Grainger and Joyce left the mess house for the purpose of investigat ing the results of the fire which had been kept going in the shaft for a few days previous. As they did not return to the messhouse for dinner, foreman M. H. Gillian, on finishing his dinner, went to the shatf to see what was the matter and, after call ing down the shaft, which is but 50 feet deep, and receiving no answer he started down the ladder. He had gone but few feet when he scented the deadly fumes He immediately retraced his steps and gave the alarm. One of the men was hurriedly sent for doctor and others at the camp. to the number of dozen or fifteen, went to work at pumping the gas from the shaft. It was o'clock be- fore the shaft could be, entered The body of Joyce was found lying in the bottom of the shaft while that of Grainger was near the foot of the ladder to which he was clinging with death grip. By means of ropes and willing hands the bodies were quickly hoisted to the surface. By this time Dr. Pare was on the ground but 45 minutes of most strenuous work and appliance of the remedies known to medical skill and science failed to revive the inanimate bodies. The foregoing particulars are taken from the Whitehorse Star. from which we also learn that Grainger was native of Kentucky, and that Joyce, the other victim of the acci- dent, was Nova Scotian

head of family, one hundred and sixty acres of non- mineral land, as a homestead, to be selected by himself under the rules and regulations pre- scribed by the secretary of the in- terior. The law is as follows:
 "That the Secretary of the Interi or is hereby authorized and empowered, in his discretion and under such rules as he may prescribe, to allot not to exceed one hundred and sixty acres of nonmineral land in the district of A laska to any Indian or Eskimo of full or mixed blood who resides in and is a native of said district, and who is the head of family. CT is twenty-one years of age: and the land so allotted shall be deemed the home- stead of the allottee and his heirs in perpetuity ana shall be inalienable and not taxable until otherwise pro- vided by Congress. Any person qualified for an allotment as aforesaid shall have the preference right to secure by allotment the nonmineral land occupied by him not exceeding one hundred and sixty acres. '
 The regulations require that appli- cati ons must be signed by the person applying for allotments, but need not be sworn to. If the signature is by mark, it must be witnessed by two persons.
 The non-mineral affidavit must be sworn to by the person applying, and if claiming under the preference right clause the date of the beginning of his occupancy must be given, and it's continuous nature stated. The cor roborative affidavit must be signed by two witnesses, who may be Indians or must be singed by the person apply ing.
 The atfidavits may be sworn to be- fore any officer authorized to admin ister paths and having seal. If application is made by woman she must state in her affidavit whether she is single CT married, and if married must show what constitutes her the head of family, as it is only in exceptional cases that a married woman is entitled to an allot- ment under the act
 There are no land office fees to be paid, and the register and receiver has instructions to give information and render all necessary assistance to application.
