to ' the reported sale of the Yukon end
White Hor*e Pas* railway, which (runs
frjm Skagway in American territory to
Daw*on in our country, to the Guggen

A very peculiar ?tatement, surely,
for a papsr publUhed at the town which

Harriman ?ii this talk of watered
stock and over capitalisation In rail
roading it foolish. He uu there can
be no over capita'iiation in the United
States because the country ia crowing
to test that the earnlig power of a rail
road can soon be made to reach almost
icy point deelred. That ia a very frank
presentation of the high financier's
attitude. President Kooeevelt would
hardly accuse Harrim?n of lying when
he gave that remarkable declaration to
the world. It is about what the people i
have thought of Harrinan
President Roosevelt's appointment of
a negro to oft'ee in Ohio and one in
Washington Ci'.r. while Senator
Foraker is defending the discharged
negro soldiers of the Twenty-fifth in
fantry, leads to the suggestion that
^president Koosevelt might be after
the support of the gooJ negroes and
that the victory in the rsce for colored
votes in the Republican convention
might depend upon whether there are
more good or more bad negroe*.
The Wjicoosin legislature it dead
locked over the ?lection of an United
States secator to succeed Senator
Spooner Isaac Stephenson. a capitalist,
former guberaatoria! aspirant and
former Speaker Lenroot anil Congress
man Ksch are the leading republican
aspirants. All of ihem belong to the
La Follette faction of the Republican
part?. 1a Toilette is said to favor the
eandldacv of Stephenson.
Gov. Hoggatt is one of a type of suc
eeaaiul politicians that are loaing cast
and influence just as fast a President
Rojaevelt finds them out. The presi
dent will discover the trust promoting
Alaskan governor, one of these days,
to hla true colors, then he. too. will lose
cast and influence. The people of Alas
ka can hasten the discovery by diligent
work aioog right lines.
A recent census shows Everett,
Washington, to have more than 20,000
inhabitants. This entitles |the city to
bccome a municipal corporation ?.cf the
flrat-claai which can make its own
charter. The people down there will
select members of a charter convention
who will frame fundamental law for the
municipality.
A noil of the young Catholics of
Seattle resulted in a large majority
being discovered tc favor Mayor Moore
in his dght to enforce Sunday cloaiog
and other reforms. Bishop O'Dea is
quoted as saying the po 1 was a fair
expression of Catholic sentiment in the
Queen City.
Japan has adopted one of the most
ambitious policfei of naval construction
of the world's powers. She will have
'be largest battleship in the world
constructed in Great Britain. She will
also hare newerful battleship* and
armored cruisers built in Germany.

If Skagway is to maintain [her base

several years.
