\ REGULARITY OF HUMAN NATURE.

It is remarkable manifestation of human nature that we who read the daily lists of caastrophes pes ence and suffering seldom pause aferward to give due credit to those who alleviate the woes of the worid until 1t is too late for the benefactors to learn that their deeds are acknowledged and appreciated
 short time ago, woman died in Juneau. Ever since her death the papers have devoted columns of their in praise of her deeds and otherwise show ed what a noble woman she was. The deeds about which SO much is said have been executed dur ing her life since the dead never come back 1el no" much was said during her whole life in the way or compliments acknowledgment of her good deeds and appreciation? Precious little we dare say. Had her good qualities been exploited during her life half as freely as they now, the noble woman would nave known that she was appreciated Not only that, but the mention and praise of her good deeds might nave led others in her footsteps. Whereas, if We take the extent of the Juneau people lamentation, we must conclude that there there to take her place. But that is one of human natures many peculartes. Indeed We must prefer throw mud rather than bou- quets at person during life and dread to acknowledge good quality in others. Anyhow, that is the way most of US feel about this matter-seemingly

RAPE OF TERRIBLE JAMES.
(From the Valdez Prospector.)

(From the Valdez Prospector)
 The Juneau Dispatch, a thick k-and-thin Wickersham organ speaks of the alleged Wickersham-S deal to control the Republican party of Alaska as an accomplished fact It heads its account of Republican primaries as follows:
 "A combination of the Wickersham and Shackle- ford forces have taken every primary in the First division according to advices reaching the Dispatch office"
 The Dispatch proceeds to aver that it has tee- graph news from Fairbanks stating that in the Fourth division Senator Gaustad and Leroy Tozier fused the Wickersham- -Shackleford forces and carried most of the division.
 Everybody seems to have heard of the Wicker sham-Shackleford frame-up except the delegate him. self Far be it from the innocent and chidike Terri ble James to get in bed with politician whom he has denounced and fought for years even though It be necessary to get coveted nomination for himself but ha has plenty of wicked partners who are fixing up the job for him and he may have to submit to this political rape
 What shame for James the Terrible to lose his political virtue cruelly'

 The warning nation of Europe have caused us a great deal of worry Now with Mexico added may well say that these are rough, grim and dangerous times in which president needs than polished vocabulary; he should be possessed of deep under standing of the people in general and an established purpose similar to that which enabled Lincoln to go through the grim times of those days. Mir Wilson lacks the push" behind his purpose In other words he is not up to his job; and while he is express ing his mind he never knows it.
