GOOD NEWS FOR SKAGWAY
The reciprocity treat}- contemplated
between the governments of Canada
an J the I'uKed Static seems to be
in a fair way of beinfi consummated.
Yest<-rda> 's dispatches brought to
us the news that Congress had
passed the bill authorizing: the govern
tuent to negotiate this commercial
treaty whub meaus so much for the
welfare of the masses of both coun
tries.
Today's dispatches tell us that
Prim r Lauricr has demanded like
action from the lV>minion l*arliament
? w ith the threat that he will take the
measure directly to the people of
Canada in event they shall fail of so
doing.
However, there is little doubt but
that the Canadian Tarliament will ac
cede to the well expressed wish of th
Canadian people.
This means much for the people of
both countries, and especially, we of
the north. Skagwav is particularly
interested in the passage of this mea
sure, because of her geographical po
sition as the gateway to the vast in
terior, consisting of Northern British
Columbia. Yukon Territory and the
Yukon section of Alaska.
With the trade restrictions so great*
ly reduced, as this measure contem
plates. in time Skagway will grow to
be a commercial depot for a great
deal of the vast territory above
named. There can result naught but
good to Skagway and the territory
which she will serve.
? SOMETHING TO EAT."
We, the people of the Iditarod,
while not famine-stricken prior to
the advent of the first steamers with
supplies . were short enough on a
number of important lines to make
some of us appreciate the desirability
of eating as good food as can be pro
cured. In. this connection R way be
?*>ted that Dr. Harvey B. Wiley, the
food expert, has been sticking pins In
the fleUherizers, the no-breakfast
press agents and the sawdust food
specialists, and into his statements
he injected ail uncommon deal of
common sense in praise of something
to eat. He say* that tuberculosis
germs attack every one. We all,
in fact, "have" tuberculosis many
times in the course of a few years.
The well nourished throw it off easily
The ill nourished do not,
Vmerica is a queer place to preach
starvation doctrines? the country
which owes its material success and
growth so largely to a richer average
diet than most nation* can claim.
Strong nations have always been good
trenchermen. The Dutch were the
first people of Kurope when their
prosperity rewarded their masterly
artists for those paintings of full-fed
burgomasters that the wx>rl<J admires.
Kipling's "five-meal, meat-fed men"
of Kivgland have conquered and held
sixty times the area of their own
little kiugdom. The German who is
frightening the rest of Kurope, Is a
competent forager.
It has always been so. The Roman
?oldier may have had no breakfast,
but he did not wait long for his din
ner. Napoleon carefully watched his
bread carts. The Japanese soldier
Candy
t resnest
and Sweetest in the Candy Line
Just Received at BRITT'S
has certamly grown in height ami
strength since the eating of meat was
made common in the army ; and beri
beri has correspondingly vanished.
The American Indian had the " fresh -
air treatment," but that did not save
him from dying fast of consumption
when food failed. The famine and
the fever went together in. Minueha
ha's village. An ill-fed race survives
because nature is fertile in expedi
ents; but It declines in size, vigor
and effectiveness ? Iditarod Nugget.
