HOOQATT AND THE EXTRA
JUDGESHIP
In another column appears an editor
ial taken from the Seward Gateway
charging Gov. Hoggatt with double
dealing in cjnnection* with .the bill
creating a fourth judicial division for
Alaska. Gov. Hoggatt now denies that
he ever changed front on this question
at all ' ut that he consistently support
ed the bill throughout the session and
the Juneau Dispatch a.sks for an apology
from the Gateway. However that
might be, last winter the dispatchts
from Wash.cgtoa to the Pacific Coast
papers, including those published at
Seattle and others, said that Gov.
Hoggatt had transferred his affections
from thf judicial division bill to Sena
tor Piles' scheme to create two more
circuit court judges for the Ninth
district and to mike It their duty to
hold jury sessions of the district court
in Alaska when the business demanded
It was stated in the dispitches to all
the Alaskan papers that Gov. Hoggatt
had called oa President Roosevelt for
the purpose of urgiug this change. If
the Gateway owes Gov. Hoggatt an
apology, every ' other Alaskan paper,
tte Seutle papers and others also owe
him one.
The Whiter.orse Star has begun a
war on the charivari, as it i* visited

approvingiy of the course of Skagway
in stopping the practice five years ago.
It says it is a species of graft that the
community should cot tolerate.

MAV PROVE FATAL
?
When Will Alaska People Lurn the
Importunes of It ?
Backache is only a simple thing at
first;
But wheu you know 'tis from the
kidneys;
That serious kidney troubles follow;
That diabetes, B rig-In 's disease may
be the fatal end,
You will ,-ladly profit by the follow
ing experience.
William Bumgardner, retire"!, of 425
Wver St., Salem, Ore., says: "I speak
from personal experience when I say
that Doan's Kidney Pills do all that is
claimcd for them in curing kidnty com
plaint and backache. I bad felt the
need of such a remedy for a good long
while but did not know just what I
should use. I have found that many
medicines are worthless and that even
physicians' prescriptions do not always
prove effective. When I read of Doau's
Kidney Pills, however, I was induced
to procure a supply. The backache and
irregular condition of the kidneys which
had ancoyed me, quickly gave way on
beginning to use your remedy and I was
restored to a condition of ease and com
fort. I can recommend Doan's Kidney
Pills to anyone in need of such a
medicine."
