"HEHE, MEHUML, DPittSK.”
Editor Alaska Socialist:
Now thjit the tried and true Democrat
ic Proxies are harvested in ‘ ‘regular”
fashion, according to Hoyle—or rather
Dick Croker--comes next the faithful'*
big show at Skagway, with its exhibit
ion of proxy juggling etc. While the
previous big show at Valdez was a two
ring hippodrome, Skagway’s big bur
lesque is promized but one, as precau
tions have been taken against another
rumpus. This Skagtown affair can’t be
styled a pantomine—there’s never a
word spoken in a pantomine. Well,
whatever category the affair may be in,
the Fall election will follow it closely-,
and then—MENE. 1VIENE, TEKEE,
UPHARSIN. The handwriting is on the
wall.

FALGON MIN MAY BE THE
NOMINEE OE DEMOCRATS
—
Those who claim to be on the inside
in the Democrat party are reported to
have stated that Falcon Joslin will be
the choice of the Skagway- convention,
while others state that Wickersham will
receive the endorsement of the regular
Democrats, while a great many contend
that Brooks' will be chosen by the Dems
as he always did the “right thing’’

This year is election year, and a prize
should be offered to the political office
hunter who tells the best story regard
ing what he or slie would do for the peo
ple.
At present there are only a few' in the
field who have “declared their intent

be alarmed, there will be plenty' more
in a short while.
“General” Coxey
Again on the March.
“General’’ Coxev, of Coxey Army
fame, is again contemplating a journey
to Washington with an army of unem

Coxey’s trip wais promoted and financed

discredit the Wilson Administration.
THE SCIENTIST TRAMP
OR
Bread Cast Upon The Waters.
When he came to our camp he was only a tramp, in spjte of the clothes that he
wore;
Which the same, I’ll admit, though correct in their fit, had been a long time
from the store.
An he proved but a shirk too exalted to work, while the rest of ns toiled every
day,
..
Wouldn’t help us a lick with the drill or the pick; nor shovel the duapbis away.
He would talk about science, and •emc domed appliance to fir the location of
gold,
A-ringing in words that’d stagger the bird* in hie language eoeaey yet bold.
And he’d tramp from the light of the morn till night, a-studvfng of nature, he
said,
An trying to wrest from her rocky old breast a secret would waken the dead.
We’d give him the sorap9 from the kitchen, ns chaps not harm the heart lorto see.
A feller, unfed, going hungry to bed, no matter just what he might be;
And when in a mood, exceedingly good, wre would ask him to dinner with nS,
Though we know ’twasn't right “by a deuce of a sight to encourage the indolent
cuss
An he often times said, we was castin our bread on the waters, in biblical way.
And to bear in mind, that we should find, it’d come back after many a day.
And he only just smiled like an innocent child at a corker from Telluride Pete,
That he reckoned the same, if it really came, would be soaked and unfiten to eat.
With his gentleman style and affectionate smile I began fer to tic to the cuss.
And I chiped in a word on his side when I heard the rest of them raising a fuss,
But when they allowed that I wasn’t the crowd, and asserted, with insolent air,
That the scientist tramp had to pull from the camp, I told them to make it a pair
I cut out my name from the stake on the claim, thus cancelling all ot mv right.
A pair of us chaps packed up our traps, hit the trail and got oughten their sight.
And the tenderfoot said, with Ins scholarly head and the science stored up in the
same,
Combined with my skill with the pick and the drill we would put the whole out
fit to shame.
I never would have thought for to dig in a spot which his science asserted was rich
And he laughed when I allowed it was time tliroWed away while a-running the
prospecting ditch,
But we hit on a ledge coining up like a wedge, an a-widening the deeper we sunk.
An it tells it to say it’s been many a long day siuce I slept in a mining camp bunk
I’m in millionaire row, and I really don’t know the heft of the money 1 got;
While my pard in the claim is a liustlin for fame for a seat in the senate he
bought;
And the gang at the camp that compelled us to tramp I can oitentimes see iu a
\ ' dream,
Vet a-toiling ahead, while we’re eating the tread that came tack on tl.e flow of
the stream. --Ux
