THE TRUTH OF THINGS
Many of tilt) subsidized press, in
Alaska have found joy in the fact
that their masters in the States con
trolled a few papers which hvae guid
ed them in the style of stuff they
have had to serve to the oieclors o*
Alaska. We have been told by them
that our delegate to congress has
boen devoting his time to insulting
the president as well as the mem
bers of his cabinet. Possibly our ^
representative has tuid a number of
truths out of meeting, but they were
truths as well. We know no law of
God or mau preventing the truth be
ing told to anyone, not even except
ing the president* of the United
States. If Mr. Wickersham has madei
a mistake it has been in telling
truths which have hurt in certain
quarters. We notice that the higher
up thieves were not brought under the
ban of the law until after Alaska's
delegate had awoke the entire coun
try to the derUictions of tho admin
istration. lie was laughed at by the
hirelings, for his charges on the
government coal graft, but somehow
or another the federal grand jury has
indicted three of those accused. A
special ageut of the government has
come out into this country to investi
gate the charges made of jury brib
ing, and the most gentle feature of
his report is that the case is not
proven, but that the circumstances
are most damning. He finds that the
disbursor of the Alaska Syndicate is
culpable of the grossest crimes but
that he is conveniently in South
America for the time being. H? is
pronounced to be by the special
agent of the department of justice
something more than an undesirable
citizen. And yet he was the agent
of the Alaska Syndicate and had
checks issued to him by that corpor
ation at a time when a trial jury was
in session in which the Syndicate
was up before the bar of public opin
ion. For giving voice to these things
when the government was derilict in
it? duties Mr. Wickersham's position
is more tenable than, that of his crit
ics. ? Valdez Miner.
Vice President Dickeson would dam
the Yukon. That is nothing new.
There are several river men, captains
and pilots who have done that each
season since navigation was estab
lished on that mighty highway of
commerce.

APPRECIATION.
T WiSH that i might know the man
Who first discovered Ice woulil keep.
I'd twine for him a big bouqaet.
One that would till a moving dray,
for his success I'd dally pray
And almost pral?e him In my sleep
As he passed by
I'd loudly cry.
"There goes the hero of renown
Who first cut Ice and put It down I"
And every one who heard would pause.
And loud would echo the applause.
And all would say.
"For him make way,"
As well earned homago they would pay.
The gentleman who first cut Ice
Would cut a lot of It with me.
Td run to him and grab hla hand.
Have tha musicians tune the band.
Be'd have my warm affection and
Could with my purse make free.
I'd sing hla praise
In chilly lays
That would play havoc with the heat
Or ix him up some little treat
To show that I appreciate
A person who la truly great
His picture? yea,
I rather guess
I would unto my bosom press.
I do not care so much about
The gentlemen who cut It now.
They charge so rtuch
One scarce may touch
A chunk to cool his fevered brow.
The prtcea they
Insist we pay
Ar? awful ones. and. worse than that.
They make our pocket books look flat
And leave us not a cent to treat
Ourselves to what we want to eat
1*11 bet the man would throw a fit
And tsk ? iimn means to make them quit
And cut their price
Who first cut Ice
f>ld he know what we pay for it
