The mongrel result of the convention at Ketchikau is already aHOrdlng text for questioning reflections as to the truth of Governor Hoggatt's announcement that the people Of Alaska are not ripe for self government-thst they have not the capacity for government. The first of thess-they may be expected to come from all quarters once the full report of the proceedings gets sbrOad-the first, strange to say, comes from so died-iu- the wool a territorialist as former gov ernor swiueiOrd. Hear this from the Miner of Eetchikan, witness of the whole humiiaIing proceeding.
 Summing up the whole affair, The Miner can but sincerely depIore tue out come of this latest double-barreIed con. ventiou, for the reason, if DO other, that it has served iu itself to cast a serious doubt iu the public mind as to the ex- isJeuce iu Alaska Of that degree of capa- city essential to the intelligent exercise ot the privileges of self goyernm:nt
 That it is a sad, depressing com mentary there is no doubt. But that it is pot au argument against self govern ment, Governor swipetOrd well knows. The governor of this district has been in Washington working against the real iu,ere Is oI the district continuous lv and he has accomplished much in tha, direction.
 The distance between Alaska and Washington is so great that It is impOs- sjbIe for us to meet aud counteracs the eG-ct of the governors labors. But when he comes back to the territory where we are aud, before our eyes, by the employment of the patronage of his office and lot of contested proxies, at- teupts to prove his contention that the people are not capable of conducting their own affairs he is inviting rebuke ,ba, will prove an object lesson, if not to him then ,o those at distance who have been listening to him.
 Mr. Corsou may have started out with good intentions and he may have aOil- i,y, put he cannot be elected coming out of convention controlled by Gov ernor Hoggatt. It is here the people speak-a, large. I, is here the people at large manifest thelr capacity to think and ;o act, manifest their resentment at misrepresentation and betrayal at the hands of those placed in authority iu their midst and whom they would have liked to and should have been able to trust.

BEING REBUILT.

City council has decided to entirely
rebuild the public 1nding place at the
foot of Gloucester street, and the
work of tearing away the old slip
has been completed
! A year or two ago it was decided
to erect this new wharf for the bene-
fit of the many little craft from the
river points which do their trading
in Brunswick The wharf was erect
ed. but it proved to be a very poor
one. and needed repairs about once
every two or three months. This be
came very expensive to the city, and
it was recently decided to build a
substantial wharf. The city engineer
drew up the plans and specifications
and the approximate cost and submit
ted it to- council and it was decided to
build the wharf over entirely.
When completed the deck will prove
popular with the little boat owners
and will afford them an excellent
mooring place. The work will De
pushed as rapidly as possible and the
wharf will be completed in few
weeks.

Beau Nash; as a Gambler

When the late Earl Of T. was a
youth he was passionately fond Of
play and never better pleased than
with having Mr. Nash for his antago-
mist. Nash saw with concern his lord
ships foible and undertook to cure
him, though by very disagreed BILE
remedy. Conscious of his own-supe-
rior skill, he determined to engage
him in single play for a very consider
able sum- His lordship in proportion
as he lost his game lost his temper,
too, and as he approached the gulf
seemed still more eager for ruin. He
lost his estate. Some writings were
put into the winners possession. His
very equipage was offered as last
stake, and he lost that also, but when
our generous gamester had found his
lordship sufficiently punished for his
temerity he returned all, only stipulat-
ing that he should be paid $4,000
whenever he should think proper to
make the demand. However, he never
made any such demand during his
lordship's lifetime, but some time aft
err his decease, Mr.. Nash's affairs being
in (sic) the wane, he demanded the
money of his lordship's heirs, who
honorably paid it without any hesita-

Hotel Accommodations In India.

All over the world Indian hotels
have a bad name to any one who has
been used to moderate degree of COM
fort and good feeding. They are for
the most part a disgrace. Why people
should have to pay from 10 rupees to
Is rupees day in the cold season and
from rupees to IL rupees day in the
hot season without receiving comfort
and good feeding seems at first difficult
to answer. As rule, the feeding is
most inferior, badly served up, table
cloths and napkins frequently dirty,
not to speak Of the knives, forks,
spoons and tumblers. Bedrooms are
badly looked after, and unless one has
very smart bearer it is difficult to re-
ceive proper attention. All this should
not be for such prices as people pay.
In many third rate boarding houses in
England one could get presumably as
good as what is got in some Of the
so called first class hotels in Calcutta.
