JUNEAU AND LEADERSHIP
r
The Daily Alaskan believes it, under
stands to some extent the measure of
the great yearning of Alaskans for
home rule ? for the enjoyment of the
privileges pertaining to a repub
lican form of government. It believes
it has been well within its knowledge
when it has said that the people of
Southeastern Alaska care far more for
this than they do for any sectional .ad
vantage
Acting on this idea of the situation
the Daily Alaskan has said that the
people of Southeastern Alaska would
be pleased to work with Juneau for the
purpose of securing their right to self
government. It has said more. It has
said they would be delighted to work
under Juneau's leadership for that pur
pose. On the other hand, however, it
has said they will not work under Ju
neau's leadership or with Juneau for
the purpose of delaying the acquirement
of the rights of their American citi- 1
zenship. It is convinced that it has
spoken truly of the situation.
This puts it up to Juneau !
What baa Juneau done in the interest
of the principles that must be masted
before the loyal Americans of the north
will follow it in the first Alaskan |

election ?
Nothing.' Worse than nothing! Sol
far there has been not a man of that j
town to come to the front with a plan '
for the union of Southeastern Alaska
under any banner better than the prop
osition of getting the first delegate
for this section of the district? and
"this section," with Juneau, means Ju
neau, of course. Not only that but the
papers of Juneau, and many of the
citizens of that town, have been
making opportunities to abuse those
who have been devoting their energy,
time and money to secure recognition
from congress.
Tne Juneau Dispatch says it will be
an easy matter to unite the people Of
Southeastern Alaska under Juneau's
leadership. Perhaps. But it cannot be
done again as it was at the last repub
lican convention when the tories came
forward, supported a very strong
plank in favor of territorial govern
ment, drank toasts to self-government
at a subsequent banquet, and then
boasted that they bad done it all in the
name of "politics," admitting that they
had prostituted their principles and
citizenship in order to control the con
vention. The people cf Skagway are
not selfishly interested in any man or
any combination, and they do not want
any more of that kind of "politics. " I
Nor will the palaver of the Ju- j
neau Record-Miner catch them. In
the course of a long editorial it assumes
that, with the induction of W. B.
Hoggatt into office as governor and the
signing of the delegate bill by the
president, Alaska will have acquired
representative government and its
rights. It urges the election of a del
egate who will keep informed as to the
needs of all the people by Gov. Hog
gatt, who will be on the ground,
familiar with the needs of the Alaskan
people and "the right hand man" of
the delegate.
It goes into ecstasies over the prospect
of its millenium.
That will not do. Gov. Hoggatt and no
other one man are qualified to make
Alaskan laws. Those must be made by
a legislature composed of representa
tives of every section of the district
and executed by men chosen by the
people. We must be self-governing.
Nothing else will suffice. And, in this
connection, one other point: The
people of Alaska will not forget that
Gov. Hoggatt has taken pains to say
that he is opposed to self-government.
They have great confidence in him as
an eiecutiye but not as the "right hand
man" of a delegate in congress.
Juneau's other paper, the Transcript,
says self-government will not be an
issue of the campaign.
No, Juneau has not yet shown
worthy leadership. Itsesutcheon must
be cleansed of the taint of toryism to
the last faint shade. We are still
waiting, and there it little enough wait
ing time remaining.
THE FLKS' BENEFIT.
la grivinif a benefit for the San Fran
cisco sufferers the Skagway Elks
are giving everybody in this city an
opportunity to do something for th
stricken people of the destroyed city,
and at the same time to get an even
ing's entertainment. Skagway has not
done as much for this cause thus far as
the people of other western towns have
done, and nearly all of the $500 or $600
that has been subscribed here were
contributed by two or three dozen bus
iness men and institutions. Everyone
who contributes to the success of Satur
day's benefit can feel that he is doing
something for a worthy cause and for
the good name of Skagway,
This benefit is also at an opportune
time for the word comes from the
south that San Francisco needs money
now worse than it has needed it at any
time since the terrible disaster of two
weeks ago.

NATURE'S WARNINV
Alaskn People Mast Recognize and
Heed It
Kidney ills come quietly? mysteri
ously,
But nature always warns you through
the urin.
Notice the kidney secretions.
See if the c^lor is unhealthy?
If there are settings and sediment,
Passages too frequent, scinty, painful.
It's time tban to use Doan's Kidney
Pills,
To ward off Bright's disease or
diabetes.
Thomas Russell, of 311 32nd Avenue.
Seattle, Wash., carpenter, says:
''Irregular action of the kidneys
caused me great deal of trouble for more
than two years. The kidney secretions
were irregular and passages were ac
companied with a scalding sensation.
I had more or less pain in my back and
stooping or lifting hurt me. I used
many remedies said to be good for this
trouble, hut obtained little relief for
this trouble until I bought Doan's Kid
ney Pills. They helped me from the
first, and in a short time the kidnej '
trouble disappeared, and the backache
ceased. I always recommend Doan's
Kidney Pills when I hear anyone com
plaining of kidney trouble."
