PRACTICE WHAT YOU PREACH.
An editorial in Tuesday's North
Star headed "Norwegians in Alaska,"
should have been credited to the Se
attle Post-Intelligencer. The North
Star has no desire to palm oft as
original any clippings from other
papers, editorially or otherwise. ? Cor
dova North Star.
In the same issue of the North
Star that contained the above editorial
was a two-column story with a Skag
way date line narrating the advent
ures of J. N. Ross, the sailor off the
torpedo boat destroyer Hopkins, who
tried to walk to Haines. The story
was taken word for word from The
Alaskan and no credit was given. In
an issue earlier by several days. The
North Star reprinted an article about
a tourist chasing his wind-blown hat
down Skagway's streets. Again no
credit was given The Alaskan.
The same thing has happened so
many times as to be distinctly notice
able to the editor of this paper. Editor
Charles is getting out one of the best
papers In the north, but we advise
him to practice what he preaches in
regard to giving credit where credit
is due.
CORDOVA ALASKAN ALSO OF
FENDS.
Not to show partiality, we must al
so accuse the Cordova Alaskan of
plagiarism. In its issue of Sept; 2
The Cordova Alaskan reproduced an
article under the head of "Plucky
Woman Scores Scoop." This story
was taken from the Skagway Alaskan
of Aug. 12. The only change that the
editor of the Cordova paper mode in
our story was to carefully blue pencil
any reference to Skagway or the Ska
way Alaskan.
Play fair ball gentlemen. This clip
ping without credit is not according t
the ethics of newspaperdom.
HOME AND MOTHER.
"What is Home Without a Mother?"
There's the motto on the wall, hang
ing in a place obtrusive, where It ma
be seen by all: and the question's ne>^
1-1 answered ? we can't know what
home would be. If its gentle guardian
angel In her place no more we'd see.
Mother washes all the dishes and
she's sweeping up the floors, while
the girls are in the parlor doing Pad
tiewski chores; Mother's breaking up

some kindling at the woodpile by the
Kale, whilo the boys are in the gar
den with their shovels, digging bait;
mother's on her knees a-scrubblng,
where the carelss foot-prints are,
while the father sits In comfort, toil
ing at a bad cigar. .Mother sits with
weary fingers, and with bent and ach
ing head, sewing, darning, for the
children, while they're all asleep in
bed; mother's up before the sunrise,
up to labor and to toll, thinking ever
ot the ether, In the weary round of
toil. What is home without a mother
That we'll never realize till the light
ot life has faded from the kind and
patient eyes: when the implements
of labor foil unheeded from her hand
and the loving voice is silent ? then
at last we'll understand. ? Walt Ma
son.
LET PEOPLE KNOW YOU ARE ON
EARTH
When Mark Twain was editing the
Virginia City Enterprise ho received
from a superstitious subscriber a let
ter stating the the latter had found
a spider In his copy of the paper aud
wanted to know whether that was
?.ood or bad luck. Mark replied In i
Lis Answers to Correspondents;
Old Subscriber ? The finding of a '
spider lu your copy of the Enterprise
was netthw good luck nor bad. The
splffer was merely looking over our
pages to find out what merchant was,
>iot advertising, so that It could spin j
Its web across his door and lead a
free and undisturbed existence for
ever and ever. ? Ex.
The J illy and August just passed
had tho distinction of being the two
wettest months of this name over
known In Skagway. September Is
keeping up the good work.
Henry Shattuck should bo removed
from the office of clerk of courts? he
has proven his unfitness for the of

but to Ik? spiritually minded Is life
