STROLLER COUNSELS PEACE.
Juneau has three dally papers. Ju
neau is a one dally paper town and
the result is that when a "patronage"
bone is thrown out there is invar
iably a scrap over it. Just now the
tdltors of Juneau's three daily papers
are lying awake nights to hate each
other. They not only have been as
saulting each other, but they have
published alleged libelous matter and
all three of them were last week In
dicted by the grand jury In session
at that place. No good to Juneau
can possibly result from such a con
dition of affairs and in the long run
all the papers will be losers. Some
of these days somebody will say the
Juneau editors are a disgrace to the
profession and that will cause them td
feel badly. They should kiss and
make up. although it is hard to pic-'
ture Ed. Russell weeping on O'Brien's
neck with Ullrich standing near
as bottle-holder.
Behold how good and pleasant
And how becoming well.
Together such as brethren are
In unity to dwell. (Psalm 133)

QUEEN LIL.
The good Queen Lll Is old and ill.
she only longs for peace and quiet:
co longer moans for crowns or
thrones, no longer cares for rout or
riot. Upon a day not far away the J
nations paused to watch her capers;
the dusky queen, in magazine was
featured and in Sunday papers. And
though she came with hoodooed name '
a nymph from some Hawaiian grotto. I
and in her wrath cut out a swath
much wider than a lady ought to, j
her dusky face still holds its place, f
upon our memories fondly pictured;!
rhe made her breaks and bad mis- 1
takes, but never wrote a book or lec- 1
tured. ? Walt Mason.
SAW WOOD.
Sometimes the saw is dull afld
squaks like thunder, the wood It
crooked grained and full of knots;
sometimes the sawbuck creaks and
falls from under, and trouble seems
to come in wholesale lots. And t'o
ther wan. the gent across the alley.
Is swwing pine that cuts as slick as
lard; he jollies you with merry quip
and sally, which makes your stunt
seem doubly, trebly hard. But keep

THE UNEASY WEST.
It is a common saving with pol
iticians that prosperity makes people
forgot their grievances. Somehow
the rule does not seem to work any
more the other side of the Mississ
ippi. With dollar wheat and a record
corn crop In sight the honest farmer
is still grumbling that tho Aldrlch
ttrlff revision was a fraud and that
the trusts got all the best of it. ?

Recent copies of The Juuoau Re
cord which have been received b.v
The Alaskan have been scorched
around the edges. Is It possible thatl
this has been caused b.v the vitriolic'
fulmlnations from the peu of (ilooiuy j
Uus? We enquire to know.
Now that the north pole has been
discovered it will be up to explorers)
with a penchant for the polar re
gions to seek the south pole.

The Cholera In Rv%?a
Cable messages from St. !**?crsbur?:
telllnjr of the spread of cholera are
borne our by letters from Russian cor
respondents of the London papers.
One writer says: "The habitual dirt
and particularly the sullen Indiffer
ence of the Inhabitants of the outlylnp
l\nd Neva districts, however, make the
situation desperate. Though the canals
are infecte<l with cholera bacilli, they
drink unboiled water and refuse to
employ disinfectants. They consider
that the disease is heaven sent. TTntil
the water Is puritlcd cholera will con
tinue."
