SOME REFLECTIONS UPON THE 000BLE
CROSS
Thar Mr. Youngs, of Seward, who
started in at the Ketchikan convention
to work with the antl-Hoggatts (the
Cule convention) who (locked with the
anti-Hoggatts to the conclusion of their
oonvention and who then immediately
sent to the Horfgatt convention a letter
which was in the nature of an apol
ogy?the fact that the Mr. Younga
that dia this is now handling Mr. Cor
son's money, it apt to suggest to cool
minded on- lookers ideas as to why he
did it.
There Is a well known rule of parli
amentary practice which provides that
no man may reverse tha action of an
organized body, once taken, save upon
motion of some member of that body
who voted in favor of the action when
it was taken. So it Is a common
trick, when the game !s seen to be go
ing against a design, for some one
who h?s set his heart upon a certain
end to vo'.e contrary to his convictions
that he may be in position to move a
reversal at some later and more oppor
tune season. Now the idea that is sug
gested to the Alaskan by Mr. Young's
action at Ketchikan is that he was act
ing on that principle; that be joined
the antl-Hoggatt's? the Cale conven
tion?with a perftct ncderstanding with
the Hoggatt's that he might later
t!i row discredit upon theanti-Hoggatt's
?that he migh', in a word, give those
for whom he first professed friendship
the double cross. Nor will the Alaskan
be alone in this very reasonable con
clusion. And so Mr. Youngs will do
writ to n-ake tbe moot of bis opportuni
ty in handling Mr. Corson's money, for
it is the )?st of him in Alaskan politics.
The roan does cot live who can stand
up against that rtcord? "he gave his
friend the double cross."
THE PEOPIE CUNT BE FOOLED
Tomorrow we shall begin to bear the
cried of (he credentials at Chicago,
and the seating and the unseating of
delegations to the great republican
gathe.-icg will absorb the attention of
the natioo.
So far as the mass of the people' of
Alaska Is concerned, whether or not
the jugglery and highhanded methods
adopted at Ketchikan by the recipients
of the sovernor's favor to carry their
point and crcate false impressions
abioad w ill secure the seaXpij of their
delegation at Chicago and the conse
quent recognition of the creatures of
that convention as the regular republi
can organization, this much is true that
the people at large /re aware of the
conditions acd cannot bo luoled. Mr.
Corson, spend what money he will, is
doomed to humiliating defeat at the
hands of the free electors of Alaska,
and >; r. Cale is as certain of triumph
ant endorsement ?nd a return to
congress a< it is certain that the ever
lasting right shall prevail in *11 things
at the end.

LOOKS 800D FOR HAIES
According: to apportionment of the
funda at it* command for the building
of toad* in Alaska, the Alaska Road
Commission seta the greatest import
ance upon the road from Haines to the
boundary. For that portion of that road
from Hindustuckl to Wells 375,000 has
been set aside? the greatest lumpsum
apportioned to any one road. The sum
apportioned to the great highway from
Valdez to Fairbanks, according to yes
terday'a despatches, Is $61,000, which
is the next highest apportionment to
that of the Haines road. Thlf sounds
like business for Halnen.
The news they send us from over.
| the hill concerning the mining devel
| opment and the results of that devel
opment, the thirds they are finding in
the depths of earth, sounds nighty
good. It would appear they have
demonstrated their claim to having
great copper mines and hence it follows
as night the day they are to have a
{real mining camp. Skagway rejoices
with Whltehorse In all such news.
EVERYBODY SCRIBBLING
The chef hrs quit his pots and pans
And ceased to cook
The while the ways and means he plans
To write a book.
The ahepard left hia charges stray,
Forgets his crook.
He wants to be lc style, >hey say,
And write a book.
The farmer and his hired man seek
A sheltered cook,
They hope to grind out in a week
A timely hook.
The smith, the carpenter, the clerk,
Where'er we look,
Have dropped all else and gone to work
Upon a book.
I'll not be left alooe of men
Like this, gadzook !
Ho, varlet, fetch me ink and pen?
I'll write a book.
