THE GREED FOR GOLD.
NEW YORI". July 11 ? "American
patriotism is egotism."
"Money is the American god."
"New York c'ty is big, but it Is
not great."
As Lochmvar came out of the west,
comes the Ht. He v. Charles D. Wil
liams, L>. D., bishop of Michigan, to
hurl from the pulpit of St. Ba.'thol
omew's church au exclusive brand of
patriotism, of which these utterances
are ihe sj uopsis.
The bishop did not hesitate when
interviewed, to emphasize rather than
retract his previously expressed opin
ions.
"America is materialistic, individ
ualistic, and inhuman," declared Dr.
Williams. "All we tl'ink of here is
money. No other country in the
world worships money 'he way we do
Our Congress is run by the trusts au
? Senator Aldrich. The poor man ha
not a chance. We are uothiag if not
material.
"We are inhuman," ? aud here the
bishop's voice tooL a deeper tone.
"Not another nation holds human
life as lightly as we do. In Pitts
burg last year 1,000 humau bodies
were maime<l or killed by accidents
from which they should have been
guarded. Our laws for the protection
of human li-e are neither properly
made nor properly enforced.
"On laws protecting women and
children, wo rank with oue ether na
tion. That nation is Kussia. We
sit with our hands folded liud watch
the slaughter of the innocents."
The Douglas island News says that
once in a while a good man gets into
the newspaper business. Each one
ot us naturally thinks thai Bro. llopp
had us iu his mind's eye when that
mighty truth was ptnned. Of course
he didn't mean himself, becauje that
would be egotistic, and good men are
ever modest. No one has ever ac
cused that Juneau bunch of pe\ Wal
lopers of ever being good, and Hod
knows thw Skagwiv man is no more
kaintly than he ought to be if he does
print a bible vers*- every day. Who
is there left? Just Bushill and the
-Miner Editor. Its a cinc^ he didn't
mean Bushell. ? Ketchikan Miner.
UNCLE JOE.
1 have seen a splendid picture of
our good old Uncle Joe, in a bout
with Jack O'Brien, who's in truth a
worthy foe. 1 have sized up all the
scrappers who have fought in recent
years, and theyr'e all like selling
platers when ycur Uncle Joe appears.
Jeffries once was quite attractive, an
his dukes were swift and hard, but
be struck the easy places and he's
all grown up to lard. Good old Fitz
Is in his dotage, and he's painful to
the view; once there wasn't in the
world a smoother looking kangaroo.
Nelson, he bane purty handy, he bane
best of all. ay :ank. but he's always
up and humping, wheeling money to
the bauk. Johnsing is a mighty sol
dier who has whipped some spavined
veto, but I've never had a passion
for that style of ripe brunettes. So
it is with all the fightrs ? there Is
something wrong with each, till we
Mr ike the Danville Wonder, who is
certainly a peach. He has all the
speed and action that a crit'c could
desire, and his footwork is a marvel,
and bis method full of fire; he can
fairly slay a foeman with a sh.?*r
of body blows; if you're anxious for
statistics, any man in congress knows
?Walt Mason.
The following from the Wall street
Journal Bhould be a sufficient hint to
ROYAL A.GUNNISON
ATTORNEY AT LAW
P. O. SOX E. JUNEAU ALASKA
the men interested In Alaska to get
busy: The close of the year shows
little change in the mining situation
of Alaska. More capital is needed in
that country and better truusporta
the resources of the country. A few
good properties are working success
fully. but the rest of the gold couies
from small prospectors who are mer
ely transient and take the top layer,
so to speak, leaving the poorer gravel
for those who can afford the equip
ment and pay the cost of getting
machinery to the place of action. The
recent pauic really hurt development
in Alaska, and probably placed the
country a year behind what would
have shown next year if money had
beeu obtainable. The proper methods
have not been used to interest the
public in this country, which is really
enormously rich in various metals
outside of gold.
When a strong man armed keepeth
his palaiv his goods are in peace.?

SEND ME BACK MY HEART.
1 PRITHEE send mo back my heart.
Since 1 cannot have thine.
For If from yours you will no" part,
Why then xhouldst thou hnve
mine?
Yet, now I think on 't. let It llo.
To find It were In vain.
For thou'st a thief In either eye
Would steal It back a?aln.
Why should two hearts In one breast
lie
And yet not lodne together?
O love, where Is thy sympathy
If thus our breasts thou sever?
But love Is such a mystery
I cannot And It out.
For when 1 think I'm best resolved
Then I am most In doubt.
Then farewell care, and farowell woe.
I will no longer pine.
For I'll belles o I have her heart
As much a? she has mine.

It Is a curious world. Some people
have trouble because they haven't j
money, autl others have trouble be
cause they have.
Some people are so set In their way
that they hatch out a lot of disagree
able ways.
Euterprlslug perseverance Is the
quality we so much admire lu our
selves. but have noticed that some
times It looks like stupid obstinacy in
others.
Be Just to your neighbor, for you

WHAT THE KIDNEYS DO
Their Uncoasing Work Keep6 Us
Strong and Healthy.
All the blood iu tho body passes
through the kidneys once every thre
minutes. The kidneys filter the blocld
They work nigt and day. When
healthy they remove about 500 grains
of impure matter dally, when un
healthy some part of this impure mat
ttr is left in the blood. This brings
on many diseases and symptoms ?
pain in tho back, headache, nervous
ness, hot, dry skin, rheumatism, gout,
gravel, disorders of the eyesight andj
bearing, dizziness irregular heart,;
debility, drowsiness, dropsy, deposits
in the urine, etc. But if you keep the
filtors right you will have no trouble
with your kidneys.
W. A. Hawkins, 669 Yesler Way,
Seattle, Wash., says: "It gives me
pleasure to confirm the statement 1
gave for publication some years ago
in favor of Doan's Kidney Pills as
the relief I obtained from their use
has proven permanent. I suffered
from an acute attack of kidney trou
ble and though I used remedy after;
remedy, I was unable to find relief.
1 had the most severe pains across
the small of my back and was also
annoyed by irregular passages of the
kidney secretions. Doan's Kidney i
Fills holped me at once and continue
use entirely relieved me. I am a
great advocate of Doan's Kidney Pills
and have recommended them on
many occasions."
