MR SHEA AND CITY POLITICS 1
W&ile the Dany Alaskan is not par
ticular* interested in the attitude of
Mr. rhris Shea on the question of law
enforc? ment. it is particularly inter
ested in publishing the new* and per
forming the functions of a newspaper.
Not the least of these functions is to place
the facts before its readers whenever
there is a political campaign that the
i>eople ruitrht therefrom glean what
are the real issues to he decided in the
voting.
Therefore, while Mr. Shes has the
right to choose his position on municipal
matters in accordance with his own
udgment ana conscience, if, taking an
active part in the coming campaign,
in the exercise of his political strategy
ne should decide that it were wise that
the real issues he hidden from view by
problems that are more or less mythi.
cai. '.bat is a matter that concerns th>s ;
newspaj-er, and it l>ecome> its dutv in I
in the performance of it- functions, j
aroresai.i. to record the acts and set
ilown ail the facts and things a!?out the
Dremises that 'he voters might have
knowledge of them :o use as they will.
And this recalls tha: perhaps, it
were proper to record thai, after all.
there are somethiugs which serve a> a
foundation for that storv. common about
town, to the erfeot that Mr. Shea is
framing up a ticket for the approach
:ng municipal election and organizing
a following for it wuh the purpose in
view of lifting thJ lid from Skagway a:
the firs; opportune moment, that were
not denied in that authorized interview
last Saturday tie did not deny that he
is actively engagen n assisting in mak
ing up a municipal ticket. He d-d not
deny that he is likeiy :o bave a place
on that ticket, or tha: he w;il use al
his in'luence ic securing support 'or
He did not deny th?r be would like to
reopen his gambling gai ies that were
closed by the pre-entcit/ council las:
November He even admits that he is
in fsvor of a "wide-open" town. Selah
This talk about the amount of tave
l>aid by the Moore whaif and town
site ;>eop:e indicate^ that ir were
sought to macufacturecahipaign issues.
The fact i> the Mojre |wo|iie pay more
taxes for the conduct of the Ssagwav
schools an'i the municipality on their
property in proportion to their value,
than are paid on any oth?T property in
this city? >ave alone th u of the saloons,
in direct taxe- and license fees this
combination pay- more than S.'l.Ol1 a
year into the Sk?trway city treasury.
I here is one Indian legend that is
rinding favor among 'he whites of the
North It is said by the ' Oldest
Indian" that once in the long ago
winter lasted all the summer season
through and the ice did not go out of
the Yukon or any of its tributaries.
There are signs that this year, 1907,
has happened along to give corrobo
rative testimony to that} old Indian
tale.
Kormer Senator W. A. Clark and
swociates have sold their interests in
the Sait Lake acd Los Angeles rail
