FOR DELEGATES FROM ALASKA
Short Term
A. P.SWINEFORD
Lent Tern
THOMAS CALE
IT IS FOR JUNEAU
The Juneau Record-Miner explains
its "switch" (rum it* allegiance to the
republican party of Alaska and the
Shoup commission plan of government,
which it supported when is was boost
ting for Mr. Shoup, to the "regular"
democratic candidate and the strong
territorial plank upoa which he is run
ning by saying that when the issue of
sectionalism is to the front it is for
Southeastern Alaska. At the same
time it says it is oppoeed to Got. Swine
ford, whom it inconsistently calls a
pariah because he refuses to be oound
on local Alaskan issues by his allegi
ance to a national political party just as
the Record-Miner itself refused to oe
bound by ita party allegiance, who is
the only man in Southeastern Alaska
that there was ever a chance to elect.
All of this means that the Record
Miner, as is so with many others
of Juneau, thinks Southeastern Alaska
and Juneau are synonyms. and the argu
ments for party politics which were so
strenuously urged were for the purpose
of putting Juneau in control of the
situation.
The Record-Miner is not exactly fair
when it says it is for Southeastern Alas
ka against the world. It is for J uneau?
the remainder of Southeastern Alaska,
the question of self-government, the
question of politics and all the other
questions are as nothing to it.
The candidates for delegate at tomor
row's election upon which there are no
Juneau strings and whose candidacies
have no taint of political trickery about
them are Gov. Swineford, Thomas Cale
and Frank U. Waskey.
The Mellen-Murane combination at
Junean speaks for itself. It indicates
that the same influences are behind
both of the party candidates. It justi
fies the statement made at the begin
ning of the campaign that the move
ment for party politics in non-partisan
Alaska, was inspired by the one com
bination which desired to control both
parties. It indicates that things are
being done by the party i^es under
cover that might no survive the light
of day.
At the republican primaries in Ill
inois the reformers under the leader
ship of Gov.C.S. Deneen were defeated.
Senator Cullom, Representative Lorr:
mer and Speaker Cannon are still in
command. However, they became tuch
wonderful reformers before the cam
paign was over that the results sought
to be attained may be forthcoming yet
Senator La Follette, of Wisconsin,
leader of the reform republicans of
that state, said the other day while
at Findlay, Ohio, on a speeehmaking
tour, that President Roosevelt is the
only republican who can defeat W. J.
Bryan for president in 1903. It will
be Roosevelt or Bryan he declared.
Because there is unanimity of senti
ment at Skagway do not take it for
granted that there is such in all por
tions of Alaska. Our unanimity should
be made to count as much as possible.
That can not be without there be a
large vote polled.
The battleships Alabama and Illinois
collided the other day while trying to
enter Newport harbor. These accidents
in the navy are becoming unnecassarily
frequent.
The fiee and untrammeled candidates
to be voted for tomorrow are Gov.
Swineford and Thomas Cale. They are
unowned, ungagged and representative
?f the whole people.
Gov. Swineford and Thomas Cale and
their candidacies are playing fail and
above board; They are dealing no cards
from beneath the table.
Skagway is more closely connected
with Fairbanks in business than with
any other section of Alaska. Therefore
whatever influence sectionalism I might
have in tomorrow 'selection should count
in favor of Thomas Cale for the long
term.
A nun named Drinkwater is seeking
the prohibition nomination for governor
of South Dakota. He should get it.
Let everybody vote tomorrow and
make a respectable showing for Skag
way.

A Wonderful Compound Curm Pile*.
Eczema. Shin I'ching. Skin
Eruption*. Cat* und
Bruises
Doan's Ointment is the best skin
treatment, and the cheapest, because so
little is required to cure. Itcures piles
after years of torture. It cures obsti
nate cases of eczema. It cures all skin
itching. It cures skin eruptions. It
heals cuts, bruises, scratches and abra
sions without leaving a scar. It cures
permanently.
>]. Sullivan, employed in the street
department of the city, who resides od,
Water street, at T.'!5. Portland Ore?.,
says. "Doan's Ointment is without
any exception the best nraparation 01
earth# for the purposes for which its usi
is indicated and from my own experience
I know that it does all that is claimed
for it. For two years I was troubled
with the worst kind of itching and
bleeding hemorrhoids. I tried one
remedy after another and even sent
east for a well known medicine, and was j
treated bv physicians, but I got no re- 1
lief until 1 learned about Doan's dint- J
ment. I procured a box anil the first i
application gave me relief such as 1 had !
not eperienced for two years. I coii- 1
tinued the treatment for three weeks, '
when 1 was completely cured. and since I
then I have been free from thtLtornient- I
ing affliction. Whenever I bear anyone
complain of being annoyed with piles I
never fail to tell them what to Jo to get
cured. I would willingly give J20 for j
a oox rather than to suffer one night
like 1 did before I used Doan's Oint
ment."
