ALASKAN NEUTRAL.
Alaskan has been criticized, severe
ly so. in past years for participation
in the mumincipal political cam
paigns waged in this city.
It is true *he Alaskan has taken a
decided stand in past municipal elec
tions. As to whether the criticism
which we have received was war
ranted. for this participation in a
live, local issue in which all resi
dents of our city were directly inter- 1
eeted and the welfare of Skagwa.v
was a* stake, is a matter of opinion.
Regard let>s of whether the criti
cisms which have been hurled at the
Alaskan are unjust or otherwise, the
Alaskan, will in th? present campaign,
maintain a neutral position as re
gards uV? Taxpayer's Party and Citi
zen's Party. We will leave the se
lection of the men who will conduct
the affairs of the city far the coming
year to the good judgement of the
electors of the town of Skagwav.
In another column will be found the
tickets and platforms of the Tax
Payers far'y and the Citizen's Party.
They stand on an equal footing.
Read these Platforms, Mr. Voter.
Use your best judgement and vote
for the best interests of our city.
BOOST SKAGWAY.
On Tuesday the :'nd in Skagtown
they say
They'll gather around 'cause its elect
ion day.
Taxpayers and Citizens will all be
there
To put in their ballot, fair and square*,
United we stand, divided we fall,
We'H go to the polls and answer our
call.
N'o matter who wins on election day
We'll boost and won't knock for old
Skagway.

FACE DISFIGURED
M ECZEMA
Covered with Eruption to Back of
Ears So They Hardly Knew What
He Looked Like. Used Cuticura
Soap and Ointment. In 4
Weeks Face Fine and Clean.
"Out little boy Gilbert was troubled
with eciem* when but a few we*ks old.
His little face was
covered withsorescven
to back of his ears.
The poor little fellow
Fullered very much.
The sores b-gan 13
pimples, his little face
was disfigured very
much. We hardly knew
what he looked like.
The face looked like
raw meat. We tied
little bats oi cloth over
his hands to prevent
him from scratching.
He was very restless
ai night, his little faco
Itched.
"We consulted two
doctors at Chicago, where we resided at that
time. Alter trying all the medicine of the
two doctors without any result, we read of the
Cuticura Remedies, and at oncc bought the
Cuticura Soap and Ointment. Following the
directions carefully and promptly we saw
the result, and after four weeks, the dear
child's face was as fine and clean as any little
baby s face. Every one who saw Gilbert after
using the Cuticura Remedies was surprised.
He has a head of hair which is a pride for any
boy of his age, three years. We can only
recommend the Cuticura Remedies to every
body." (Signed) Mrs. H. Alhrecht, Box SS3,
West Point. Neb . Oct. 26. 1910.
Although Cuticura Soap and Ointment are
sold throuehout the world, a liberal sample
of each, with 32-p. book on the skin will be
sent free, on application to Potter Drug A

0N E reason why sotne persons Just
can't help making fools of them
selves is because they have such ex
cellent material for the purpose.
Ever notice that it is generally the
opstart that gets the place at the pin
nacle?
One way to make friends is to make
money.
Anyway, no man was ever able to
break into jail quietly.
A man likes a wife with a sense of
order, provided she does the ordering
In bis absence.
The reason why some women can't
ghut up is that they know that an ex
plosion would result if they should.
One reason why a man doesn't listen
to his wife more is that he hasn't time.
Sometimes the policeman sees that
we get on in the world.
The fellow who is smarter than he
looks generally gets there at the show
down.
Conceit is a thing that is easily rec
ogniztxi? away from home.
Universal Topic.
We pay our respects to the weather.
It's either too hot or too cold:
In little, tense groups get together
And gl\-e it a well deserved scold.
Its merits are seldom so striking
That It Is not dubbed a misfit.
It never Is built to our liking.
Nor could we regard it a hit.
But some regard it's deserving
In spite of Its faults and its flaws.
A purpose It often comes serving
And so for existence has cause.
Without Its small chapters of anguish
How could we our fellow men stand? j
For most conversation would languish
Were it not a topic at hand.
The man who is paying attention
To one only girl would be lost
Were there not the weather t<j mention |
Until they had broken the frost.
He'd stumble and stammer and stutter.
His brain as a steampipo would throb, i
Nor one single word could be utter
Were it not there on the Job.
Oh. yes. even weather has uses
If for them a search we would make!
We need it to frame up excuses
When we an engagement must break. !
A measure of credit to hand it
And say a small word on Its side.
However It comes, we can stand It?
It might be much worse if it tried.
Almost All Done.
"I hear Jackson intends to build this
season."
"Yes. He has the site chosen, the
house planned and the interior deco
rations decided upon."
"Then it's all settled?"
"les. Al! he has to do now is to
persuade his father-in-law to give him
the money."
A Scorcher.
"Has he a good record?"
"Depends."
"On what?"
"The kind you are after. His poker
is bum, but he has done more damage
on the pike than any man 1 know."
No True Tramp.
"Did you notice anything suspicious
whtn this tramp knocked at your back
door?" asked the prosecuting lawyer.
"Yes. indeed." replied the lady.
"What was it?"
"He asked for a drink of water"

Increased his assets by 100 per cent.
Of course It Is sometimes hard to
