LIGHTS FOR ALASKA'S COAST
Ftourleea shipwrecks ux northern
waters uuu' ISO&, the ios>s of good
vt? eU and their vargoes, aiul the
k*w of man y lives, is a, soU-uin re
minder thai the Federal government
has been woefully remiss in not pro
viding proper and adequate aids to
oavvgatiou ou the coast of Alaska
The lot* of the Kamona near Span
ish Islands is merely a repetition of
what has been, happening for some
years in Alaska waters. Fortunately
no live* were lost when the Kamona
sank, hut a cou**Uerat)le amount of
property went down with the vest-el.
The wreck of the R&mona. ami the
*r*k of other vessels on the Alaska
coast could and would have been
avoided if the federal government
had provide*! proper and necessary
aids to navigation on the oast
of Alaska. The Kamona was iusi aiaJ*
1}. if not altogether because there
were no lights on the coast at the
point * here the vessel sought to pass
between Cape IXvisiOOi and Spanish
isianas. Lights at that point would
have saved the sir? from the rocks.
It is iitUe short of criminal for the
federal goverunieut longer to neglect
the manifest needs of navigation in
northern waters. Commerce between
Alaska and the States is steadily' in
creasing. Every year more men aud
women visit the northern country oil
business and pleasure
Travel between points in Alaska
and points south should be made safe.
Travel will never be what It ought to
be unLl the federal government meets
its obligations in this matter. Nor
can we hope to fully develop the com
merce between Alaska and this sec
tion until we provide more adequate
safeguards for vessefe that go into
northern waters. Ships are not built
to be sent to the bottom of the sea.
Enough treasure has been lost in
Alaska waters to have provided for
the northern coast aids to navigation
equal in efficiency to those main
tained on the Atlantic coast, and it
is nothiug u> the credit of the gov
ernment that these losses are directly
due to the government's failure to do
the square thing by the people and
intenvts of the North Pacific coast
In the interest of human life, no less
than in the interest of proprety rights
it is time for the federal government
to put adequate aids to navigation on
Alaska's coast line. ? Seattle P.-I.
The great. John L. evidently sees
that this is an off year (or "has
beens," and taking the hint from
Lauriec's defeat, has backed down. ?
withdrawn from the public eye, ? and
will be content without seeking to
add M. C. after his illustrious name.

ENGRAVED?
Where can be found more genuine
satisfaction than in beautiful table
silver which is artistically engraved
with the name or initials of the owner
There is nothing that adds to the
appearance of a tabic, set for some
special occasion like beautiful silver
service, and that the choicest and
most unique designs can be had right
here in Skagway, is well worthy of
note.
Like all the stock in the Kinase
?tore, the silver stock is equalled In
so other store in town, and when It
is know that all engraving is done
free of charge, this should be a great
inducement to get what you are thinl?
ing of buying at the Kirmse store.
It is time to think of Thanksgiving,
Christmas and New Tear's dinners,
and to make arrangements to have
a table service which will be In keep
ing wKh the balance of the appoint
ments of your table.
