K_ A TEST Or FRIENDSHIP
It the Alaskan delegate bill shall fail
to become a lair because of a quarrel as
to whose Dame it shall bear, it will
demonstrate that neither Senator Nel
son nor representative Cushman is a
very good friend of this district. A
genuine friend would not permit a lit
tle matter of pride to prevent the peo
ple from being properly represented at
Washington.
As a matter of fact, however, the
question as to whose name thisdelegate
bill shall carry, is rather a small one.
It will not be such an enduring piece
of legislation as will bring fame, even
in Alaska, to ai.j mac. Except as a
?t?p in the conte t for self-government
it is not of very great consequence. It
is of vital importance just at this time,
of course, because of its relation to
that all-consuming, but necessarily
transitory, contest. When self-govern
ment shall have been secured the dele
gate bill, as one of the incidents of the
struggle in securing it, will be cver
shadoved by the anal result to such an
extent that those who have fought for
it as a panacea in itself for Alaskan
ills will be forgotten,
At the city election held last week In
Seattle the republicans elected their
entire ticket except the mayor and two
councilmen. Most of the candidates of
that party received handsome plurali
ties. There were some close contests
tor ward councilmen and one of the can
didates of the municipalowncrship par
ty for counciiman-at-large came within
3.70 votes of election. He is the one
who will demand a recount.
The Post-Intelligencer calls atten
tioo to a peculiar condition of a'Tairs.
The four big cities of Washington and
Oregon? Seattle, Tacoma. Spokane and
Portland ? have deasorcratic mayors,
though all the cities are normally
strongly republican, and there are no
states in the west more rock ribbed in
their republicanism than Washington
an 1 Oregon.

It is time for the progressive people
of Juneau? those who stand for self
government, ard there are many of
them, a large majority of the inhabi
tants ? to make themselves heard. The
tories are doing all the talking for that
town, and they are making no friends
for it.
The disposition of courts to encroach
upon the powers of the legislative and
other branches of the government will
not be curtailed by the elevation of
Secretary Taft to the supreme bench,
unless the leopard shall change his
spots.
The effort of some of the papers of
the country to show that Turner Jack
son, sentenced to the penitentiary from
Skagway and recently pardoned by
President Roosevelt, was not a mem
ber of the "Soapy" Smith gang, is
funny.

WOMEN'S WOES
Alaska Women Can Find R lief for
Their Hardens.
It does seem that women have more
than a fair share of the aches and pains
tha< aftiict humanity: they must "keep
up," must attend to duties in spite of
constantly aching oacks, or headaches,
diizy spoils bearing <:o?n pains; they
mast stoop over, when to stoop means
torture. They must walk and be rid and
work with racking pains and many
aches from kidney i!'s. Kidneys cause
more sufferi- g than snv other organ of
the body. Keep the kidneys well and
health is easi v maintained. Bead of a
remedy for kidneys only that helps and
cures the kidneys.
M s. John Meerdink, residence ?12
North Fourth Street, North Yakima,
W?si? says: "I can cheerfully tes ify
to the houesty and worth of Doan's Ki t
ney Pills, and have already dooe so to a
num er of my friends and acquaint
ance*. The-e is no humtnig about thttn
I suffered from kidney complaint for
y<a'>. indicated by aching and distress
through the loins and frequent attacks
of headache, dizziness aod annoying
condition of the kidney secretions. At
times I was worse than others, esptxna'
ly if I caught cold, when I suffered
severely from backache. I have beer,
laid up on more than ona occasion for
weeks at a time on account of it, and
could not get out of btrd without assist
ance. I was suffering acute y some
three months ago when I read about
Ooan's Kidney Pills, ?nd had my hus
band call at a drug store for a bo<, yet
the result was decidedly henefii-Ul and
the improvement ma> ked from the first.
I followed up the treatment ui til 1 used
five boxes, when I felt like a different
person altogether. I have used lots of
medicin?s but never tri d one that came
up to Doan's Kidney Pills I cheerfu'
ly recommend thrm, and you are at
libei ty to refer sn\one to me. I wi'l
only be too pleased to give them more
particulars about my case."
