PASSING OF WEBSTER BROWN.
Th* death of Webster Brown which
was reported in yesterday's paper re
moves from the activities of Alaskan
life one of those noted characters
?hKh have In the past done so much
toward the development of the coun
try.
la dwelling on the history of a
front:** it 1* right and proper that
the brave and hardy pathfinder should
have his name fixed .n the place of
honor As a trail blaiter Mr. lire* n
had <*w ovJiMt*.
Hi* calling that of the civil en
gineer caused him to be much in de
maud b> those who sought reliable
information about our great empire
Ttve road builders eagerly sought his
services which were so important in
obtaining surveys out in the wikler
acas.
Hard I v a glacial stream flowing in
to the Pa elite but has floated bis
canoe, hardly a trail leading into the
interior from the coast but has felt
the Qroad of hi* feet. The store of
knowledge that his many hardships
have succeeded '.n giving to the wond
cannot be estimated.
He had an abiding faith in him
?elf. a more than natural affect ion
for Ms ?;fe and little ones and a
great love for the North laud whuh
claimed him at last.
He loved bis work. It Is the law
of life that the pioneer, the trail
blazer, must get his compensation
largely from the Joy of doing the
things that are set for him to do, aud
in the anticipation of the good that
is to follow. Taking this view, Web
ster Brown was sell paid, but the
debt owed him by posterity is over
whelming The entire North extends
to the bereaved family its warm
sympathy.
FUND FOR STAMP MILL.
It is gratify iog to report that the
committee appointed at the mass
meeting last Wednesday evening for
the purpose of circulating the sub
scription for stock n the proposed
stamp tuiil have met with great suc
cess.
la the few brief hours that they
were out they accomplished two
thirds of the task assigned them.
Thus far the subscriptions have been
uniform and a few more remain to
be seen in this class, after which
those who are willing to subscribe in
leaser amounts will have a chance to
add their quota toward the general
result |
The Alaskan would like to suggest
that it would be wive to provide a
good working fund in addition to the
amount necessary for installation
and would submit that Sk&gway be
ing in the right mood at ibis time, it
would be w?U tfeat the subscription
be made popular. Gtve all the peo
ple a chance to contribute after tbe
business men have subscritved all
they care to invest.
THE FOURTH OF JULY.
It is arranged thai July Fourth
shall be observed la Skat* ay de
?pit? the fait that we have already
bad two days of joy feasting in hon
w of Independence Day, This is as
it should b?. There Is no reason why
the people cannot assemble in a
suitable hall and give attention to
addresses on the traditional subjects
so d^ar to the hearts of liberty lov
ing people.
It it not good that we grow care
lew of our Xatai Day. by anticipa
tion or postponent of its obser
vance, That we have already given
expression to our Joy with red fire
and noisy demonstration is no rea
son why we cannot now look on the
serious side of the snbjoct.
For this reason the celebration com
mitWae has arranged an excellent lit
erary program which will be render

itvis evening at Rlk's Hall ami U> ,
which the people of Sk&gw&y are
uro-4| to come.
The Daily Alaskan is having a
cabinet constructed for the mineral
samples of all ores from the claims
adjacent to Skiff way and claim own
era and prospectors are urged to
bring in their samples properly label
ed for display therein.
Ample transportation facilities have
been provided and it is expected tha'
thore will be a general holiday de- j
clared on the sixth so that there can j
be a large turn out for the celebration
at Haines and Port Seward.
FVrt Seward and Haines have al
w?vs been liberal in their attendance
at Skagways celebrations and social
events and it Is right that Skagway
should reciprocate.
Skagway's ball t?am will ko down
to Haines Thursday determined to
reverse their ill-luck of Saturday.
