ROSE WATER FOR SENATOR
Edward Rosewater, editor of the
Omaha Bee, is again a candidate for
United States senator. Nebraska could
do worse than elect the little editor, and,
to paraphrase an expression of the late
Tom Reed on an interesting occasion,
they very likely will do so. Mr. Rose
water has been too good a newspaper
man, he has hewed too closely to the
line regardless of consequences to him
self, to make a successful candidate for
office. He is much in the position
which Harvey Scott, the able and fear
less editor of the Oregonian. recog
nized as his own when it was suggested
to him once on a time that he run for
governor. Mr. Scott said, in putting
the suggestion aside, that he could not
make the Oregonian and not make
enemies, but he could prevent those
enemies from having the satisfaction of
defeating him for office. Mr. Rose
water has been even more independent
and fearless as a newspaper man than
has Mr. Scott, but he has not been so
careful to prevent his enemies from
having the pleasure of defeating him
for office. They have done it several
times and will probably do it again.
However, Mr. Rosewater's persist
ence in seeking a senatorship is a dis
play of a quality of bravery and daring
that has made him a very successful
journalist.
Let us follow the Juneau plan and
put it on a selfish basis for a minute,
just for arguments sake. What is there
in the history of the past to indicate
that Skagway, or Ketchikan, or Doug
las, or Wrangell or Sitka, or any other
location in Southeastern Alaska, outside
of the town of Juneau itself, would
profit more from having a citizen of
Juneau for delegate to congress than
though the delegate hailed from some
other section of Alaska? We have done
much for Juneau but what has Juneau
ever done for Skagway except to knock
the town? No, this sectional argument
does not go. The issue in Alaska is
self-gorernment. With a territorial
organization, every section of the dis
trict will be represented in the gov
ernment and in a position to demand
the recognition to which it is entitled.
The best way to eliminate sectional
ism from Alaskan politics will be to get
a government in which all sections of
the district shall be represented. In a
territorial legislature there would
be members from Nome, Fair
banks, the Westward and Southeastern
Alaska. The surest way to get this
kind of a government is to seed as our
first delegate to congress a man who
will ask for it as the paramount ?ques
tion.
The Juneau Dispatch says the polit
ical issue which concerns Alaskans
most is the desire of those of each
section of the District for representa
tion in the lawmaking body. Well,
then, let us send a man to Washington
who can and will make the hardest
fight to secure a legislative body in
which all the sections and all the inter
ests and industries can be represented.
The man who is most likely to secure
for the people of Alaska the enjoyment
of their right to self-government is the
man whom we should elect delegate to
congress. The place of his residence
and his political faith are immaterial.

It I* Oangtrou to Neglect a cold
How often do we hear it remarked:
"It's only a cold," and a few days later
learn that the man is on his back with
pneumonia. That is of such common
occurrence that a cold, however slight,
should not be disregarded. Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy counteracts any
tendency of a oold to result in pneu
monia. and has gained its great popular
ity and extensive sale by its prompt
cures of this most common ailment. It
always cures and is pleasant to take.

A woman should not have a bad back,
And 9he woundn't if the kidneys were

Here is a woman who endorses this
claim:
Mrs. Charles Wetmore.of 251S|William
street. Bellingham, Wash., says: "I
had attacks of kidney complaints at
various times for several years, indicat
ed by backache, difficulty with the kid
ney secretions, pain and soreness across
the kidneys and weariness and laosruor. j
I could not get proper or necessary sleep
at night. My strength seemed in-,'
sufficient to perform the oidinaiy house- i .
hold duties without distress and in ,
other ways when suffering from these ;
spells my health was in a bad condition, j
1 bad an attack some time ago, and
knowing of the merits of Doan's Kid- |
?ey Pills I send for a box The pills j'
stopped the back ache almost immediate- ,
ly and soon correctected the action of 1
the kidney secretions. My health was
greatly improved and I have no hesita
tion in recommending Doan's Kidney
Pills for any complaint similar to those
which afflicted me."
