ON THE BOAT SERVICE
The business pooplo of Skagway
who arc Interested iu having the com
mercial boats which also bring ex
cursionists to thw place spend more
time la port may well take a leaf
from the book of Ketchikan's exper
ience oa this same subject.
Time was that the boats did not
stop vary long at Ketchikan. The
pruiuiiitMit bustutMis men invited the
captain to take possession of the
town any time he was in port; they
burdened his stateroom with a choice
brand of cigars ? and on one occasion
gave a ball while the ship was iu poll
to which be was an honored guest.
These manifold exhibitions of friend
ship made the port of Ketchikan a
very snug and comfortable harbor to
seek and stay in. Ketchikan now has
no complaint.
Let the business men of Skat way
got together and show a little courtesy
to the masters of the ships that come
up here. Offer the hand of friend
ship and It will so a long way to
ward the end sought..
All the commercial ships are run
ning on a schedule that practically
limits the time at docks to a very fe
hours. The transportation earn pan
tes leave, in a large measure, the dis
posal of this time to the discretion of
the masters of the ships.
When a ship arrives in Juneau on
the way up the master usually ha.
instruction* as to the slope he will
have to make going back, and the
amount of freight u> be handled.
Then it is up to the master to do thi
?n accordance with his running sched
ule. I'an the business men of Skag
way s*h> the point?
THE SYNDICATE SQUID.
It seems passing strange that if
Delegate Wrckersham k not actuated
by other than good motives in his
official acts, his enemies have never
been able to bring anything up against
him other than the letter written to
orv Steve Birch, after his reaigna iou
from the bench asking to be retained
by the Alaska Syndicate, as its coun
sel for $15,000 per year. Those charg
es are again being made public
through the columns of au unscrupu
lous evening paper Ux Seattle, which
says that the Alaska delegate's charg
es against Attorney General W kk
ersham, are actuated by a spirit of
revenge against the Uuggenhehns and
ends by saying that t'aptaiu Jar vie
committed suicide on the same day
the revolution was introduced. I p
to the present writiug we have not
heard any of the Guggenheuns or
their satraps deny the chaise that
they had robbed the government out
of $50,000 in a * oal contract; the at
torney geiueral says he doesn't know
or doesn't care whether the case of
fraud previously placed before him
by the Alaska delegate, was barred
by the statute of limitations or not;
Jarvis committed suicide and thus
confessed bis guilt. All this talk
about revenge is mere bosh, uttered,
merely to cover the retreat of the
guilty. The people are not one baif
as much interested in the motives
actuating the person who preferred
the charges as they are in seeing
the gang of looters brought to jus
tice. Granted that Wickers ham is
actuated by motives o t revenge; does
that change the moral or legal as
pect of wholesale filching from the
government; nor does tt condone the
murdering of innocent men In Key
stone canyon or of subsequently brt fe
rae a jury to render a verdiet con
trary to evidence and law. Give us
all the facts and let justice be dealt
out impartially. Trust to tbe peo
pie to Judge o t Delegate Wicker
shani's motives.
It is highly probable the name of ;
Stephen Birch would never have beenj
known outside of his immediate nei?t?
borhood. fl Judge Wickershani had
not mailed him a gentlemanly letter,
which evidently Birch did not under
stand.?' V&kie* Miner.
