i ,
- ? ?? on record against pang rule,
:ul i is not likely to change now ^
in this day when so many pnb- ]
officials are being criticised for
j quency or neglect of office. '
i- a pleasure for the Daily Alas-j
1 to acknowledge tbe efficiency (
j o>f Trustee W. W. Houghton in his i
xdaMttnUw of tbe townsite af-'
|;
Mr Houghton was appointed to .
t" v office of Townsite Trustee in ;
I**cember 1907. but it was not un
? il May that the patent was 1
?ned o him. As soon as that
was obtained he asked for bids
or nakinc the survey of the town
Ms The contract for the snrrey '
let by him for the sum of $2,- {
and we are of the opinion that j
it was the most economical survey U
that has ever been made in Alaska '
for like work. TJwn followed thfc
issuing of deeds to the various
claimants, but owiin. to ?'u> fuel
that many people had sone away It
was a Jong time before the appll
cants could be reached When the
original survey was made th?re was
? population of perhaps $.060 peo
ple In Skagway, hundreds of thcs?*
people were scattered and some of
Ihem never appeared to claim their
holdings, thus considerable delay
was andergone before a settlemeat
[?oald be arrived at.
When the day of sale came there
remained 158 lots to be disposed of.
These lots had been Incumbered
with taxes, penalties and assess
ments until it was generally believ
ed that they would hardly bring
the costs imposed against them,
therefore it was a matter of sur
prise and pleasure to find when Mr.
Houghton offered theae lots to the
public that they were sold at prices
which produced a very satisfactory
residue over the cost of administra
tion, which will ultimately be nd
iled to the city treasury. Compar
ed with other towns, Skagway In
x?mpleting her incorporation has
made a record for economy, thor
oughness and celerity, all of which
s due to the efficiency and atte:i
iveness of Trust f-e Houghton.
Mr ltoughton has been a re-l
lent of Skagway for fourteen years,
>nd after bo makes out the deed#
o the remaining lots and sends his
??ports back to Waskl^gton, he in- 1
ends taking 119 his residence in
"alifornia. When he goes this j
?ity will lose a respected citiien I
md a most trustworthy public offi
iai.
There is a difference between
kVlckershara and Cilnukce Wicker
ham's oriftamme is "Home Rule."
Ltilmore's is "Gang Rule."
Should Jennings fail to be elect
ed. he will immediately return to
'Seattle, from whence he came."
