Jerome says he is io Che fight for the
democratic nomination for governor
for the purpoe? of redeeming the dem
ocratic party from the hands of the
bosses. That is all all right in so far
aa his conaection with his party is con
cerned. but what will he do in his cap
pacity as govenor if elected? He
answers that by saying that he will
have no strings upon him. He wants
the people to take him on faith. Wall,
they have done that for a long - time.
The result has been the prosecution of
many small grafters and the elimina
tion of many vicious practices from
the civic life of Gotham, but, notwith
standing tae prolific revellations of
thievery in the insurance companies
acJ other trust concerns, there has
been no prosecution there. Jerome has
earned the name of being a lively op
ponent of small vices, but as a reformer
in large matters he is an abject failure
or something worse.
When the Alaskan road commission
is under consideration it must be borne
in mind that Alaska is .ndebted to
Major Richardson, its president, for
the 1150.000 appropriation made by
eocgress, That sum is in addition tol
the license monev that Alaskans pay ?
it is one of the very few returns our
people have received for the money
that has been taxed out of them. Had
it not been for Major Richardson the
money would stili be in the federal
treasury and the road fund would be
about So per cent smaller than it is.?
Valde/. News.
The exit of Juneau's population for
the states is somewhat larger than
usual, and gives the impression that
times art going to be correspondingly
mi-re dull during this winter. How
ever, the experiense has been in the
past that tbe number of new people
coming in counterbalances the loss
thus occasioned. ? Juneau Dispatch.

Gaggenheims Gives Alaska
Great Send Off
Daniel Guggenheim, president of one
of the wealthiest investing syndicates
In the world, while in Denver found it
difficult to properly describe the beau
ties of Alaskan scenery and the oppor
tunities offering for the investment of
capital.
"It was a visit of pleasure as well as
business," said he. "We left Seattle
about two months sgo and took the in
side passage to Skagway, thence over
the famous White Pass, which is now
traversed by a railway. As we ascend
ed 1 could not help but admire the rug
ged courage of those early goldseekers
who climbed it, tome of them during
blizzards. From White Pass the re
mainder of the route to Dawson is a
continual revelation. The scenery is
different from anything I bare ever
seen. The little steamer in which we
journeyed down the Yukon afforded us
ample opportunity to see the landscape,
as the treacherous rocks make naviga
tion slow. TheYukou is a wonderful
river. From a narrow stream It broad
ens out until at Dawson it is a* wide as
the Mississippi at Burlington, and at
the mouth they cell me U is amy miles
wide. Dawson is a picturesque place
and its inhabitant* as cosmopolitan as
any to be found on the face of the'globe.
"One thing about Alaska miners im
pressed me. I saw men well past *0
wooing with pick and shovel, and they
seefied to alt the vim of youth. Their
chtffks were red and they stood erect
andptrocg. I recalled the averag deni
zeoof the city at 60 and came to the
cowlusion that mining in Alaska was
one of the ways to renew one's youth.
TbS climate la tha summer is de
lietr-'^i We slept out of doors many
nights and the frugal fare of the min
inf camp* was often more appetizing
thin the menu at the Waldorf. I be
lieve Alaska will be one of the most
waade<4?ti?iales.in lie union gome day.

A former Skagwayan writing to a
friend at this place says:
"Cordova is booming into life once
more. There are ai>out 500 men here
at the present time and this number is.
beinff added to by the arrival of every
steamer, many are coining here from
j Valdez and Seward.
"Cordova was the first to receive an
engine, a ten-wheel Baldwin of improv
ed pattern, it is presided over by H. R.
Simpson, formerly of Skapway, while
Ed. Foley, also a former Sfca^wayan
performs the function of conductor.
The engine is already in active opera
