IKAGWAT MISREPRESENTED
i'ress representatives in Alaska
should poet the lute'-tri on Alaskan
questions or refrain from sending out
to many dispatches Here ii one that
does not represent Skate way condition*
in any particular whatever. It appear
ed in the Seward Gateway, which gets
a Scripps News Association eervice:
?Skagway, April 3 ? The White Pass
railway company '? ticket was defeated
in the city election yesterday, for the
first time in the history of the town.
The labor candidates for the oouncil
were elected on a wide open town
platform.
"The railroad company city adminis
tration has been trying to keep the
lid on Ska* way and the policy
has been disapproved by businesa
men generally as wt-11 ?s the labor
classes.
The WhitePass railroad bad no ticked
.n the field at the late election in Skag
way. The Citizens' tickst, Jwhlch was j
defeated, w*i selected at a meeting of
a half hundred representative business
men of the citt. Nor, iu the iense that
the foregoing dispatch would imply,
has it ever had a ticket in the field
here There is scarcely a commnnity
in the country where voting has been
as Independent as it has been in Skag
way Not lince the incorporation of
the town had there been 100 straight
ballots cast for a successful ticket that
hail opposition until the election of the
Laboi partv tickct this month. A year
ago there were not 100 straight tickets
Toted for all the three tickets, and
only 52 were cast for the Citizens'
ticket? nine more than were cast for
it this year.
Purther than that, the Labor ticket
was not run on a "wide-open" town
platform, and the candidates and those
who stood sponsor for their candidacies
denied by all that was holy that they
were in favor of a "wide-open" town,
Now they go further than that, the}
take the position that the question of
~ gambling iu Skagway it settled and
that there will be no more of it.
While all the "wide-open'' townad-j
vocates supported the successful ticket, I
all those who supported it were not ]
for a "wide- open" town by any means.
HOW IT CAME ABOUT
The other day the Daily Alaskan
commented upon the speech wherein
W. J. Bryan said that if it should ap
pear to be his duty at the time of the
meeting of the next Democratic na
tional convention he *ujid not hesitate
a minute before placing the name of
President Roosevelt in nomination for
president. That is not all of the story.
It was at Chatunooga, Tenn.. and John
Temple Graves, the Atlanta editor, had
left a banquet, refusing to s;>eak. be
cause the toastmaater had insisted that
he omit any reference to President
Kooaevelt as a Democratic presidential
candidate in the presence of Mr. Bryan.
When he learned of the incident, Mr.
Bryan caused Mr. Graves to be sent for
and told to deliver the speech as he j
had intended. After he had done so,
Mr. Bryan replied, complimenting him
upon his frankness and us!ng the words
before quoted. All of which Is to the
credit of the frankness and political
honesty of Mr. Bryan.

Tbe events of the last two tears hive
caused two Democrats who made great
pretensions of leadership to so ioto an
an eclipse from which they are not
likely ito emerge. One Alton 6.
Parker and one George B. .McClelUn
can trul; be said to have ceased cutting
ice.
It is said that President Roosevelt
has hinted to the Taft Republicans in
< >bio that he would like to see Son-it
law Long woith sent to the senate to
succeed Foraker or Dick.
The rcore Gov. Hofgatt says the
more pronounced appear his monarch
ic*! ideas and tbe less popular he be
comes

Frank Waskey has declared him- If

No ieei a light than Roosevelt himself
appears a? bottle bolder for Hogg it t'
so that it would seem to be up to t tie ]
whole of Alaska to go into Waakey't
corner tnd pull hard for the success of
the strenuous little Nome gamecock. ?
It ought not be a difficult thing for
Alaska to provide Waakey and Cnle
with sufficient amunitlon to punct-.ire
the Juneau Inflation and reduce his:
pretensions and his head at one and the
same time.
tioggatt'i representations to both the
president and the congress have been
so palpably falie that they can not
stand long discredited. They must full
even of their own weight in time, but
the rtnish can be hurried If Alaska will
aid it* representatives.
Rooeevelt seems to have been easily
deceived by Hoggatt's bland assurarce
and suave good fellowship but we have
too much faith in the president's pen
'.ration and good sense to believe ttat
he will remain long the dupe of taej
Guggenheims' representative.

"A fall which strained my back n is:
have injured my kidneys, for I sufft ed
for more than seven years with kid ey
trouble. The secretions were irregi !ar
and contained a heavy brick dust si li

was more or less pain across the sn all
of my back, which was very severe a er
working in a stooping position for nv
length of time and I bad to be car, ful
when straightening up or I suffered
severe twinges of pain. I also ha-!
headaches and spells of dizziness. I
treated with a physician and used diff
erent remedies but found no more than
temporary relief. At length, I noticed
recommendations of Dean's Kidney
Pills In he newspapers and I got a oai.
They stopped the aching In my back,
corrected the kidDey difficu'ttes and
banished the headaches and dizziness.
Other members of my family have since
used Doan's Kidney Pills with the same
good results."
