BERDCE. THE VAN.
With the passing of A. L. Ber
?\> as General Manager ot the
\viiite 1'ass KouU , Skagway will
lose one of her most ardent support
ars, and a public spiri'ed man who
?;>? always r the lead when aid or
assistance w.i_- needed, financially or
otherwise, for the good ot the com
oittaity* at large.
Although Mr. Berdoe spent most
cf hx s boil ixk the South, where bus
mess demanded his attention, hi al
ways kept .a touch. through his of
ti-'talf w:Ui conditions in Skagway,
and 'was ev.: solicitous of the ?el
J?.re of the mea who were employed
under him.
?Mr. Berdoe came to Skagway thir
ty a years ago as auditor for the
company and he bears '-he reputation
of being one of the most careful and
ab'e accountants that ever came to
the North The position of auditor
was held by .Mr. Berdoe for eight
y?.rs, and upon the resignation of
A. B. Newell he was made General
Manager.
On account of the largt shipment
o* heavy machinery that ha\e been
a -lit over the road in the past ?> v?
ytars and the difficulties eueounter
nl la the moving of them, great
credit is due to Mr. Berdoe through
hi* men in completing all contract*.
The \N lute Pass Athletic Club w ill
l*ii? have occasion to remember hi
many benefactions, as Mr. Berdoe i>
a firm believer in atliietics as a builu
. r v?l body (uid miud
Although never a ' mixer" Mr. Ber
?'< e is a man to whom friendship
lutans everything and ais reputation
lias always been that his "word i>
as good as bis bond ."
Mr. Berdoe may rest assured that
the good wishes of Uie citizens of
i>kagw? and of the town, go with
hiiu. in the future, wherever lie iuay
he located.
FALSE REPORTS THAT REACH
FAR.
Reckless "yellow" newspapers in
the United States publish fa la*1 re
l<rts, positively sta'ed and with
much detail, which picture this coun
try as virtually determined upou a
military occupation of Mexico. It Is
added that the ultimate object aim
i-d at is the annexation of a large
s cv of Mexican territory.
These stor.es are circulated widely
and they must come to the notice of
Mcxican s aud citueus of other Latin
American republics. At a distance
bom the places where the "fakes"
are printed it is not easy to per
ceive how unworthy of notice the
papers are which publish such sen
actional inventions. In distant coun
try a U is often taken for granted
that there must be solid support for
statements which deal with matters
of such moment.
Where such as estimate is placed
Uk-on the unwarranted assertions of
>cllcw papers there inevitably fol
lows a growing antagonism toward
the United States. This country is
more feared, more distrusted, more
hated. Americans have less chance
to widen their trade with. Latin
America or obtain business advan
tages and opportunities there. Many
nat.ons are influenced to turn to

Lurwpe and away from this republic.
Possibly the men responsible for
"yellow" fakes would say that they
c?:re nothing for such results, but
tbeir readers would care If they
itvilized Just what the effects must
b?. Any adverse change in Ameri
- an relations with Latin- America
must check the growth of American
t~ade and that means 'ess work for
wage-earners, less opportunity for
Utter pay or steadier employment.
I; makes work harder to obtain and
less profitable. It is a form of
fating which exacts a heavy price
tiem the workingmen of the I'nited
States. ? Ex.
