WHY TEARS WERE JUSTIFIED
Commenting upon the report that
Got. Swineford shed tears when the
oommittee on territories of the national
house of representatives turned down
the biil granting Alaska territorial
government, th( Fairbanks News says
they were justified because Alaska is
being betrayed by non-resident pre
tenders who go down to Washington
and say the district is not ready for
?elf-government, grossly misrepresent
ing there the attitude, lesires and capa
cities of real Alaskans. It m'ght have
added that tears were justified, also,
because these non-resident speculators,
who see in Alaska a choice morsel for
their exploitation, have a few Hessian
hirelings in the north, conducting
newspapers which have the braaen
effrontery to say that these pretenders
truly represent the people of the north,
and thus give the appearance of the
color of truth to their misrepresenta
tions and an excuse to the Aldrlchs,
Platte, Depews, Lodges and? yea, and
Nelsooe? to obey fcreign corporations
and to deny to Americans their Ameri
can rights.
To quote the Fairbanks News:
" But do one can say that ex-Governor
Swioeford, knowing what he knows as
to the struggles for recognition of
Alsaka and the strifes that have hind
ered it had not cause for tears. It is
true that but for the shortsightedness
of many who go down to Washington,
or the personal interests that would
deny the true Alaskan tho privilege of
managing his own affairs much greater
progress might have been made.
"It is not the Alaskan, the true Alas
kan, who desire, and intends to link his
future with the great north, who de
clares the district is not prepared to
manage its affairs politically. It is the
man who merely has 'interests' here,
who spends a lew months of the sum
mer in Alaska and the balance of the
year outside and who votes out there
and who does not intend, in any case, to
forfeit his franchise out there. ? ? ?
Very sagely he delares the district is
'not ready.'
"That the real people of Alaska of
whom ex-Governor Swineford is a dis
tlngu'shed individual, should thus be
hindered in their fight for their plain
rights by non-residents, outsiders, is
certainly justification for tears."
"When a boy comes home from his
first year at eollege he wonders how it
is that his 'at her knows so little," says
an exahange. After four or five years
more at college and eight or ten at his
profession he wonders how it is his
father ever learned so much.

RATES DOWN
Through Freigh Tiriff 19
R?*daeC('?
There will be some substantial reduc
tions in through freight rates between
Puget sound points and Aiiin, Dawson
and Tanana this year. While the new
tariffs hare not all been arranged this
much is known. The rate from Skag
way through and the local rates have
not been arranged as yet.
It has been determined to reduce the
through commodity rates from $2 to
$5 per ton, and to the coumodites has
been added beer, bottled and in bulk.
The classified freight rates will remain
the same as previously.
The new rates on commodities to
Atlin, Dawson and Tanana. effective
from June 16 to August 15, to Atlin and
Dawson, and from June 16 to July 31 to
Tanana, in the order named, include
the following:
Oats and leed, per ton, $47.50, $50 and
880; blacksmith's coal, $42.50, $45 and
<75; candles, <50, $52 and $87; nails and
similar kinds ofhardware, certain kinds
of iron, flour, sugar, canned milk and
cream, same as oats and feed; beer, $60,
$65 and $100. These rates will average
nearly $5 per ton less than last year's
tariff.
The rates on lumber will remain tbe
same as will passenger rates.
The circular containing this infor
mation says the season will be a busy
one for mining machinery. ?

WASHING WITHOUT WATER
ib Like Trying to Get Rid of DnndruS
Without Herpldde.
Did you ever see any one trying to
wash themselves without soap or
water?
If you did what would you say of
him?
Tt Is every bit as foolish to try to get
rid of Dandruff and to prevent Bald
ness by feeding the germs which cause
It. with Canthrarides, Vaseline, Glycer
ine and similar substances which form
ihe principal Ingredients of most so
iled Hair Vigors.
Newbro's Herpiclde Is successful be
cause it attacks and kills the parasitic
