MCBRIDE HAS CAUSE FOR GRIEVANCE.

Republican National Committeeman Mcbride has cause grievance against the person who for obvious carried false tales to him regard ing the speech of Delegate Grigsby the Coliseum The account of the speech as transcribed by the reporter who took it down for Sutherland supporters shows that the Delegate said in timated the things he accused of saying by Mr Mcbride. He did not say that he would work with MT. Mcbride in recommending Republicans for ap- pointmen to Territorial office said that he did not think the Republicans would elect the next President and thereby indicated believes there will be no Republicans selected for the high offices He did not even appeal for Republican support-though he will get it. not only in Juneau but throughout the Territory
 It is the customary thing for Senators and Con- gressmen the opposite political faith to get aone amicably with the National Committeeman who rep resents the party in power within their State. The Republican and Representatives of the State of Washington and other States recommend the con frmation, place their endorsement upon, the Demo- ortts recommended for appointment to office in their States if they worthy men. MT Grgsby said in effect he believed MT. Mcbride would recommend worthy men for the offices, whom he could en- dorse Those who seek to make political capital out of that certainly hard pressed for something with which to fool people.
 It is. however, diverting contrast the attitude assumed by Delegate Grgsby, the customary attitude of Senators and Representatives where normal men occupy those positions, with the practices of Judge Wickersham when he Delegate to Alaska-and when he pretending to be Delegate. Judge Wickersham, for purely political and personal sons, protested against the appointment and conlrma- ton of many of the highest competency and integrity who had been recommended for appointment by the Democratic organization in Alaska. He ap peared before the subcommittee of the judiciary con- mittee of the United States and made himself describaby ridiculous in his efforts to prevent the confirmation of Judge Jennings

The New York Yacht Club has been challenged in the of two Canadian yacht clubs, located in Nova Scotia international next year the Americas Cup. It is proposed to raise $1,000.000 for the purpose of building yacht to contest for the by securing $1 each from 100000 Can adian subscribers. The yacht clubs in whose the challenge was written have not yet agreed to stand sponsor for it. but the men who are behind it believe they make the showing necessary to get them father it.
 It is hoped that the Canadians will be able to go through with their challenge. Canadian built yacht would have conditions meet that would be almost exactly similar to those that the defenders have meet in order to defend the cup. Their yacht would not have to be constructed with trip the Atlantic in view. Canadian yacht would only have to coast down the New England coast to New York to enter the contest
 While the big sailing yacht has ceased to be a practical craft smaller yachts still among the finest paythings of lovers of real sport No one would, for useful purposes pleasure, eXpend the money required to construct and man such vessel as the Resoute, for instance in sailing craft, but the plans for the largest yachts used in the struction of the smaller pleasure and racing Therefore the large Americas Cup challengers and defenders provide very practical tests for trying out the skill of yacht designers, triggers and sailors
 It reduce the cost of these tests that it was stipulated for the recent races that the yachts should be 75 feet in length instead of 90 previously was the limit in size. The Resolute and the Sham rock " 15 shorter than previous America Cup racers with corresponding decrease in width and depth and, of much lower cost of production. Yet it is estimated that it cost Sir Thomas Lipton, who built the Shamrock ", and the Americans, who built the defenders and conducted the tryout races than $2 900 900 prepare stage the off Sandy Hook. While it may be doubted that the practical results from the test worth the money, time and energy they cost there is sort of sentiment in these that cannot be measured in money, and it is fine that we find British subjects who willing to spend money to salve the sting of the many defeats the British have sustained since the America defeated string of English yachts in 1851 in around the Isle Iof Wight and that there Americans who are willing to dig up money to maintain the ascendency ill yacht racing that established by Americans Of other generations.
