In spite of the indictment wealth CT last night there was a good re- presentatiye crowd of Skagwayans present to witness the third sched- uled game in the contest for Bu- premacy in basket ball between the Volunteer Fire Department team and the White Pass Athletic club team.
 Interest in this game was at a high pitch in view of the fact that each team, up to this time had one game 10 its credit.
 Last nights game was won by the Athletics by the close score of 1g to IT.

Independence Day Losses.

A dispatch from Chicago states
that early reports indicate that there
were more deaths, woundings and
fire losses in this country in the
course of the celebration of hide
pendence day this year than last (which
indicates that there may have been
some falling off in the safety and
sanity observances. 1t is to be hoped
that this is not true and that the
larger losses this year are due to
exceptional conditions. The idea of a
safe observance of independence day
has spread throughout the country,
and it would be calamity if there
were a reaction toward the old bar
barrie method of commemoration.
Washington certainly does not want
to return to the former practice of
unlimited powder burning by ire
sponsible children as means of ex-
pressing the national rejoicing over
the completion of another year of
American independence. Yesterdays
local celebration was in every respect
satisfactory, gave pleasure to great
number of people. and was perfectly
safe while appealing to the patriotic
sentiment of the community.

A Memorial to the "signers."

In last Sundays Star was printed
an article which set forth that in the
Hall of Statuary in the Capitol
which, whatever its artistic dehcien-
cies, is the nearest approach to a
gallery of national heroes, are aeffl-
gies of only ten of the signers of
the Declaration of independence.
The memory of these men has been
sadly neglected by the country, save
in few cases, in which certain ones
have been honored for services rem
dered the republic in other ways than
the great proclamation of the prin-
ciples upon which the new American
government was founded. Save to a
very few the names of all but per-
haps half dozen of the "signers"
are unknown to the average citizen
today.
A letter is printed in another part
of today's Star in which the sugges-
ton is advanced that memorial to
the "signers" be erected in Wash
ington, comprising a temple contain
ing statues of all of the patriots. 1t
is proposed that this work be paid
for by national dollar subscription,
giving everybody a chance to con-
tribute.
The plan is worthy of considera-
ton. That the necessary funds could
be raised may not be questioned,
providing the enterprise is properly
organized and conducted with vigor.
The patriotic societies all over the
country could properly get behind
such a movement and arouse public
interest and with the right sort of
activity the dollars would soon be-
gin to come and Congress would be
moved, without question, to aid by
the donation of site.
In 1896, eleven years from now, will
be celebrated the 15oth anniversary
of the signing of the Declaration.
What more appropriate observance
of the event than the dedication of
the memorial to the "signers"? In
these eleven years the fund could be
raised and the work accomplished.
The thought should be an inspiration
to every patriotic American.

Still Predicting Cloture.

In his latest interview Mr.. Kern
again expresses the opinion that a
form of cloture for the Senate will
be adopted at the coming session
He expects contest. and maybe a
protracted one, but thinks public SEN
timent will in the end drive the meas
ure through.
On no other subject is the general
public more rneagerly informed. if in
formed at all. 1t has heard only one
side, and that side in exaggerated
terms. Full debate has been repre-
sented as obstruction, INDUCED in as
rule by long-winded men fond of
the sound of their own voices and
bent principally on personal adver-
tisement. Upon that statement has
been founded certain support for
cloture in circles unfamiliar with
senatorial procedure.
But that statement has not a leg
to stand on. The Senate's rules were
not framed to promote obstruction,
and have rarely been employed to
that end. Whenever SO employed
they have accomplished a purpose OF
benefit to the country. The So
called force bill of twenty-odd years
ago, defeated by Senate filibuster
was a crude measure. Pork bills,
defeated outright, or materially trim
med. by such means, deserved their
fate. while the ship purchase bill had

Albania.

Albania may play an important
part in the great war. although it is
small and feeble state, actually at
present without recognized head
and more or less in a condition of
anarchy. Originally Turkish prov
ince, Albania was created an indie
pendent state after the Balkan wars,
chiefly, it is known. at Austria's in
stigation and upon her demand, Aus
tria desiring mainly to prevent the
accession by Serbia of that win
dow on the sea-" which has been
long an ambition of that state. The
Prince of Wied was nominated King
of Albania by Austria. Now that
Wied has fed Albania is left in a
chaotic state. At present no less
than four nations are seeking to get
a foothold there, Italy having landed

not the full approval even of some
of the men who under party pres
sure voted for it.
On the other hand, full debate in
the Senate has accomplished many
excellent things in improving hasty
work performed under cloture in the
House. The record of the recent
Congress is freshly and conspicuous
ly in point. But for the Senate's re-
vision of House measures, the criti-
cism of the democratic party would
today be a hundred per cent more
severe than it is.
1t will augur i'll for the party in
power if the Sixty-fourth Congress
begins with a row in the Senate over
the rules. A good deal of important
legislation is on the card, and time
will be factor. Neither party will
desire long session. Both will have
the presidential campaign in mind,
and be anxious to close up in WASH
ington early and get to work else
where.
But if cloture is brought forward
and insisted upon, resistance will be
made, and under rules favoring re-
sistance. And even if the PROPOSE
ton should carry, the bad feeling
produced by the contest would show
in relation to other matters present
ed during the session. Changing rules
that have wrought so much good and
so little harm is a very serious
proposition at a time when time is
precious and troubles are abundant.
