ABOUT THE If AIL SERVICE
It is incumbent upon the United
States mail authorities and the com
panies involved in the operation of the
Steamship Humboldt to conclude ar
rangements without delay for that boat
to carry mail, and it is incumbent upon
the managements of the steamships
operating on this route to see that the
vessels are so distributed that the peo
ple will get something; like an adequate
mail service.
The people of Alaska are entitled to
have mail on every boat that comes
north. It is the business of both the
United States and the steamship com
panies to see that the people get it.
The people should not be made to
suffer while government officials who
receive their mail hourly and the
steamship companies engage in boy's
play acd quibble over a few dollars.
It Is said that both the Humboldt
Company and the government author
ities express a willingness to be judge
ed, each upon the merits of its side of
the quarrel. Fiddlesticks! The people
of Alaska are not interested in the
petty details of a "you're another" dis
pute. They have no time to referee a
schoolboy fracas. They want the mails
as they have a right to them, and they
are not disposed to hold either side
blsmeleaa until they get them.
Nor will the public endure patiently a
steamboat schedule which gives them
only two or three mails in a month
when a half dozen vessels are making
two or more monthly trips, each, while
each company says, "its not our fault,
the other fellow Is to blame." It is up
to the steamship companies to realize
t hat they are public service institutions
acd that they are supposed to serve the
public.

How ludicrous is Che attempt to make
it appear that the people of means in
Alaska are opposed to territorial gov
ernment! The surplus from one year's
work the supporters of Cale and
Waskey would have after matching
dollar for dollar the annual production
of all the tories in Alaska would buy
Juneau at twice its assessed valuation,
would buy the accumulations of the
tories for the last decade and discount
the earning* of the Treadwell mines
for the next. The men who are devel
oping Alaska, producing its riches and
making it a land of homes favor self
government. The tories are the non
resident exploiters, their retained
agents and those wno have given ear to
their sophistries.
One would think Gov. Brady would
take a tumble to himself. He is still
harping on his "commission" idea re
gardless of the fact that the people of
the district by a vote exceeding three
to one rejected It. Congress gave Alas
ka an opportunity to express its wants
and needs. That is what the people
were given a delegate to congress for.
The people have, in accordance with
the law, elected a delegate ito congress
and instructed him as to their desires
and requirements. Why would it not
be well for congress and all the other
government officials to get their infor
mation in the regular way, as has been
provided by law, from the delegate?
It is likely that they will do so in
spite of Gov. Brady and the others.
By the way, 'he election is so far in
the past now that it might be possible
for one William Travers Jerome to get
sufficiently near mundane things to re
member that he still has three years in
which to make good. In that time he
should be able to redeem some of the
promises he made the people of New
York five years ago and repeated one
year ago. He might yet, if he tries right
hard, live down his fast growing reputa
tion of being a false alarm. He has
missed great opportunities, but others
will come.
Croup
A reliable medicine and one that should
always be kept in the home for imme
diate use i? Chamberlain's Cough Rem
edy. It will prevent the attack if given
as soon as the child gets hoarse, or even
after the croupy cough appears. There
is no danger in giving it to children for
it contains no opiam or otber harmful j
drug. For sale by Wm. Britt.
