THEY KICK
Skagway Objects to Mnin
tuiuing Iudigent Indians
The question as ?o whether or not
the municipality is responsible for the
care of sick and indigent Indians who
wander into Skagway from there tribal
habitations, is one that the city council
proposes to probe. The matter came
up l?st night, and was introduced by
the fact that Walter Hill, an Indian, i<
in the railroad hospital, suffering from
consumption. While the city has not.
acknowledged .-esponsibility in the
case, it is understood that the sick
Indian is regarded as a charge against
the municipality Mayor Shaw stated
that he thought the city should appeal
to Gov. Hoggatt, who ha? been desig
nated as sUDerintecdent of Indian af
fairs, to ascertain the exact status of
matters. He believe! the federal gov
ernment and not the city was respon
sible in the premises. The clerk was
directed by the council to lay the
matter before the governor.
In the course of the discuss'on over
this matter it was pointed out that the
city could very easily become bankrupt
if it elected to care for all the con
sumptives among the Chilkat Indians,
Dr. Norman, it was s'at?d. had inform
ed the council that he is besieged daily
by Uindigent Indians seeking med
ical attention.
Mr. McGrath called attention to the
far.* *.hat there is danger of ;lifting the
tloijfgates in this matter of caring for
the indigent. He said only a short tims
ago the city admitted responsibility
only when there was danger from
smallpox or some other contagious d s
eases. Now, the city has some one on
its bands nearly all the time.

MAY PROVt FATAL
Whan Will Alaiku People Leitrn the
Importance of It ?
Backache is only a simple thing at
first:
But when you know 'tis from the
kidneys;
That serious kidney troubles follow:
That diabetes, Bright's disease may
be the fatal end.1
Vou will gladly profit by the follow
in? experience.
W'lliam Bumgardner, retired, of 424
Water St., Salem, Ore., says: "I speak
from personal experience when I say
that Doan's Kidney Piils do all that is
claimed for them in curing kidnej com
plaint and backache. I had felt the
need of such a remedy for a good long j
while but did not know just what 1
should use. I have found that many
medicines are worthless and that even
physicians' prescriptions do not always
prove effective. When I read of Doan's
Kidney Pills, however, I was induced
to procure a supply. The backache and
irregular condition of the kidneys w hich
had annoyed me, quickly gave way on
beginning to use your remedy and T
was restored to a condition of ease anil
comfort. I can recommend Doan's
Kidney Pills to anyone in need of such
a medicine."
