WHAT PEOPLE KNOW
la reading the Skagway AlasKan
one would think that ex-Governor
Swineford was a perfect God in the eyes
of the people of Alaska. Everyone
who has been in Southeastern Alaska
anytime at all knows Swineford, and
every one knows why the old man was
so anxious to go to Washington as one
as one of the delegates from the Seattle
convention.? Juneau Transcript.
Everyone who knows anything about
the question at all knows that Gov.
Swineford was not only not "anxious
to go to Washington as one of the
delegates from the Seattle convention,"
but that he possitively and aggressive
ly refused to consider the proposition
at all until it was put up to him in such
a way that he believed it was a public
duty to accept the call of the people.
The Daily Alaskan has no apologies
to make for defending Got. Swineford,
who has devoted the best part of a
score of years to the cause of Alaska,
from the jealousy-inspired attacks of
torv crumb-chasers, unless they be made
to Gov. Swineford, himself, for digni
fying his small-bore enemies with so
much attention.

Late papers tell that Senator Allison,
of Iowa, has proposed an amendment
to the railroad rate regulation bill,
providing for a court review, which all
the republican members of the senate
will support. The amendment L not
entirely satisfactory to the president
but he is willing accept it. The
amendment is not satisfactory to Sen
ators Tillman and Bailey, who say it is
a surrender to Senator Foraker and
other railroad men. Both of them wiil
attack the amendment and support the
one offered by Senator Bailey. It is
understood that the Allison amendment
has been accepted by the republicans
to present the democrats from gaining
too much political advantage from this
legislation.
Senator W. A. Clark, of Montana,
has announced that he wilt not be a
candidate for re-election to the United
States senate. It is believed he will
support W. G. Conrad, brother of Col.
J. H. Conrad, the Windy Arm mine
owner, for the place.

A Wonderful Compound Cures Pil? s.
Eczema. Skin Itohing, Skin
Eruptiom, Cuts and Bruise*.
Doan's Ointment is the best skin
treatment, and the cheapest, because so
little is required to cure. It cures piles
after years of torture. It cures obsti
nate cases of eczema. It cures all skin
itching. It cures skin eruptions. It
heals cuts, bruises, scratches and abra
sions without leaving a scar. It cures
permanently.
M. Sullivan, employed in the street
department of the city, who resides on
Water street, at 73s, Portland Oreg.,
say?: "Doan's Ointment is without any
exception the best preparation on earth
for the puposes for which its use is indi
cated and from my own experience I
know that it does all that is claimed for
it. For two years I was troubled with
the worst kind ot itching and bleeding
hemorrhoids. I tried one remedy after
another and even sent sent east for a
well known medicine, and was treaded
by physicians, but 1 got no relief until I
learned about Doan's Ointment. I pro
cured a box and the first application
gave me relief such as i had not exper
ienced for two years, I continued the
treatment for two or three weeks, when
I was completely cured, and sinces then
I have been free from the tormenting
affliction. Whenever I hear anyone
complain of being annoyed with piles 1
never fail to tell them what to do to get
cured. I would willingly give $20 for'
a box rather than to suffer one night
like I did before I used Doan's Oint
ment."
