CLARK IS GOVERNOR.
t .
Walter E. Clark is. now governor of
Alaska. Although appointed upon the
recommendation of Wilford B. Hogga
and against the protests of our dele
gate and many Alaskans, Clark has
been treated with the utmost fairness
by the Alaskan press and the press
and people alike are now in a "show
me" attitude, awaiting to see what
the future will bring forth.
In interviews and in his Inaugural
address Gov. Clark has repeatedly
promised not to play politics, not to
favor any particular faction, but to
got acquainted with the country amd
its people, to study conditions, and to
work tor the industrial upbuilding of
the north. These be fair words and
if Clark lives up to his promises and
keeps from under the domination of
any clique or corporation he will read
ily overcome the prejudice now ex
isting against him to some extent and
become the most popular executive
we have ever had.
THE REPUTATION OF HAINES IS
STILL LIKE CAESAR'S WIFE.
There has been some anxiety ex
pressed In certain quarters lest
Haines obtain a bad reputation for
lawlessness In Southeastern Alaska
through the fact of so many cases
from here coming before the court
of the First division In a short
time.
An examination of the cases from
Haines before the Juneau court will
show that there was hardly a bona
fide citizen of the town in the
lot. .Most of the men indicted and all
of those convicted were wanderers
who could hardly claim Haines as
their home. They were mostly 'ho
boes," to use the generic phrase, who
had come here for the express pur
pose of peddling liquor to the na
tlvtM.
Haines is better off without these
gentry nor will our reputation suffer
by the moral houscleauing. ? Haines

THE HELPING HAND.
If you're climbing to the heights.
If you're rising day by day, all the
workl is full of wights, who will help
you on your wav. T'ity will cheer
you on with joy, as you strive toward
the sky, calling you a bully boy with
an irridescent eye. They will throw
you large boquets, as along your path
you pranoe; they will load you down
with bays, if you give them half a
chance. Of your triumphs they will
sing, and their singing will not stop;
you'll be treated like a king, as you
clamber to the top. if you're Jogging
down the slope, at a paw that beats
the band, do not journey without hopo
? there is still the Helping Hand.
Folks will help you going down, as
they'd help you if you rose; they will
drag you by your gown, they will push
you with their toes; they will guide
you to the steep where the human
wrecks are put; they will cheer you
till you sleep with the bow-wows at
the foot. Choose, then, choose the
path you'll tread! Paths descending,
paths that rise, to the abyss of the
dead, to the garden of the skies ? all
are lined with Joyous bands, reaching
forth to grasp your gown, holding out
the willing hands, glad to help you.

CRAIG GIVEN
HIS LIBERTY
At this morning's session of court
the case of the United StatCB against

liquor to an Indian, was dismissed on
the motion of the district attorney's

advice of his appointed counsel, Judg4
Winn pleaded not guilty. The defend-]
ant has been in custody since his pre- J
limlnary hearing last February and
