THE ELECTION
The municipal election yesterday re
sulted in an everwhelming victory (or
the Labor party. The majorities were
*j Urge '.hat it is evident than many
cause* acted together in turning the
of public sentiment into one channel.
The principal one. no doubt, was a test
leasneas on the part of the people that
demanded expression. It was not, we
believe, due to dissatisfaction with the
work of Mayor Shaw on the city council
or with the council itaelf. Nor do we
oelieve it wan lack of confidence in the
personel of the Ciii*ena' ticket. It was
a demand for a change, principally, re
informed by many side issues and effec I
ti?e. organized work in behalf of those
who sought the change. The issue
raised by the charge* with reference to
unequal taxation brought its i(uota of
votes to the successful ticket.
There is no doubt but that the city's
affairs wiU be in good handa for the
uext year. Mr. McGrath has served
Sicagway with signal ability on four
common councils. Mr. Nettles has
given faithful service in two council*
and Mr. Conwav in one. Mr. McLean
has been chief of the lire department
for several yeais and is closely identi
fied with the city's affairs. The other
oounc^lmen-elect are men of ability (and !
will prove to b: capable men.
For its course in the camDaign, the
Daily Alaskan has no apology to make.
It opposed the election of Mr. Shes,
not on personal grounds at all or be
cause he was on the Labor ticket, but
for the reason that it believed that bis
business has been such that he should
not be placed in a position of authority
In municipal atlairs. The people have,
however.by an overwhelming majority,
decided adversely to its position and
given Mr. Shea a vote of confidence of j
which he oan feel proud. The Daily
Alatkan has the utmost confidence in
popular government and the highest
respect for the people's verdict. It is
quite contented.
The Labor party endorsed territorial
form of government, anyhow. That
helps some.

DAYS OE DIZZINESS
Com* to Hudradi of Alaska People
There are days of dizziness;
Spells of headache, sideache. back- |
ache;
Sometimes rheumatic paius:
Often urinary disorders.
A! I tell you plainly the kidneys are |
sick.
Doan's Kidney Pills cure all kidney
ills.
Mrs. John Close, residing at 239 Com
mercial St., Astoria, Ore., says: "About !
a year ago, we moved here from Port* |
land and as I had a great deal to do, I j
overdid myseli and tbe result was I j
brought on kidney trouble. My bu ck j
began to ache and as time rolled on. it
kept getting worse instead of better. It
finally grew so bad that I could scarce
ly stoop or straighten up after stoop: i;
When I did any work requiring bend
ing, I could hardly gel up and I hud
headaches dizzy spells and at tirn-js
everything before me looked blurted,
I was just about to start to the store for
a plaster to put on my back, whet: 1
read about Doan's Kidney Pills and is
they were so highly recommended for
kidney troubles, I made up my mind to
try them and procured a box. They
went right to the root of the disease
and helped me from thestart and before
I had finished tbe box, I was cured.
Everything is changed with me nowatid
I have no symptoms of kidney trouble
whatever.''
