THE DAILY RECORD
THROWS UP SPONGE.
The Juneau Dispatch says: The an
nouncement was made in yesterday's
.ssue of the Juneau Daily Record ot
i's retirement front the Juueau news
paper field, tilt plant to be boxed
a -id shipped .Vlarshtidd, Oregon,
whtre A. R. O'Drien, editor of the
paper, w lit, in two mouths time. eu
?<t?e tn the newspaper business.
ihe announcement 01 the quitting
ot tne Record was maue to the em
ployes just fallow ins noon yesterday,
ana the THIRTY nv?s came as a
complete* surprise.
The ernp oyes t-xlay are packing
the plant and the business is being
cJosed up. Tht Record is estimated
to have lost nearly in three
ytars. and made enemies for those
responsible "or :ts existence.
Juneau merchants today generally
f -? a load takeu off their shoulders
*>y the elimination of one paper from
the Juneau fi>-Id. all tite business
uitn being called upon to carry the
f naucial burden in an overcrowded
t'eld. Now tu? re will be no dupli
cation of subscriptions, and the busi
ness man using the columns of the
Dispatch wiil get all ihe results at
lus. one-half the expenditure. There
fore^ the merchants will be in no
trnrry to pay out additional money to

GREAT FOR POLITICIANS.

elections, und<.r the ret ail law of thai
suite, wtUuu a mouth or so. There

mouths to [> til major's office aud
t-s term is supposed to be four

call" elec Lou is to be held for the
purpose of "getting" the four muni
cipal commissom rs.
1 tat will makv four city elections
in a year. means unparalleled
b rdens piled . ;>on candidates for
high of fives and upon men who hold
tueu. For ti. same reason it means
unprecedented opportunities for mak
?ini money in "hustling" for aspirants
to office. The year is the most fruit
ful ever know;, in Tacoma for men
who make politics their living and
profession.
Common sense should teach any
reasonable person that the end of
such conditions mu>t be the ascen
dency of macha.. politicians in a
oe^ree never b* fore know n. It must
racen the e&ciusion from public of
fice of all m. n unable or unwilling to
spend a grea*. deal of money to get
and retain power. It is a barrier to
place and power which few poor
rieu. if any, * b? able to surmount,
i*' it will surely go far toward
ex*, uding from office and from public
affairs all cit zens who have too
much self-respect to be dragged
thtough the mire of campaigns every
lew weeks or months, witc no certain"
ty o retailing any position which
ti ey may win. ? Cleveland Loader.
The news, that the vaccination
policy of the government is on ac
count of the prevalence of smallpox
in Seattle, is at least some small
satisfaction *o the people of Alaska,
ia that it gives them a chance to
knew what they are fighting. l"p
untM the presen' time the stories of
thA cause for the order have been
many and varied.
Going farther, however, why should
we be made to suffer for what Se
a*.*e does? In the first plac* Seat
tle officials claim that there are
very few- cases of the desease in
that city, and that those few are
thoroughly isolated. Seattle is a
c'ty of 250,000 inhabitants, and fo-r
the sake of argument, we will say
there are 25 cases of small pox in
the tfty. that is, one case of small
pox to every 1000 inhabitants and
a'' of the cases isolated, what chance
is there for fhe carrying of "germs"
to the rorthland? It is safe to say
thxt there has never been a time in
the past ten years that there has
