On account of tho lack of banking
facilities, a postal savings bank Is
an urgent requirement of Skagway.
We understand that tho postal heads
iu Washington havo ruled favorably
u.on tho establishment of such a
department for tho local postofflco,
but for jorro reason, probably tho ut
ual amount of government red tape,
the bank has uever been established
Kvery cotamuulty should have ample
means for tho saving of money. Fa
cilities (or tho encouragement of
t:.rift Is la ? the people; It Is a right
that should be granted for the ask
A little concerted action would
doubtless result In securing the es
tablishment of a postal savings bank
here. Thai action could be best ex
ir<lsed through a commercial body,
the city council or a number of per
sonal letters to the Postmaster Gen
eral. Any or all of these means
should to put In action at once If
the desired end Is to be obtained In
this generation.
While the government is spending
hundreds if thousands of dollar* to
i>.otect lae seal herds, an animal
which has uo food value whatever and
but little other valuo except a beau
tifi. pelt which can only be had by
(bo rich, it Is permitting greedy cor
porations to rob the waters of the
nation's ft od fish, with no attempt
audi ut their protection.
Down at Anacortes there is a
newspaper tailed the American which
has the seal-salmon situation sized
up In truly an American manner. It
"Uncle Sam has discovered that
several thousand dollars worth of
se.iis have been killed in Alaska
without his consent. To citizens of
Adacortc* the less will cause little
regret, aud probably we will be able
to worry along In spite of the loss
of several million dollars worth of
Ik Its. The protection of fur seals
probably does not make a very
strong appeal to the citizens of Ana
lortes, anyway, as the fur-bearing an
10" a) as well as his light clad bro
ther of warmer climates probably
Ill's more salmou In the course of a
> ear th..,i the sum total of the
season's pack. Salmon Is a staple
a- licle >f food of all classes, while
iOal skli a are a luxury for a few.
The uarantlme nations of nor
thern Europe, where the fishing In
iiustry la of great lmportanco, for
merly protected the fur seal, but the
aulmal reduced the fish supply to
such an extent that tho protection
was removed. Slnco then the num
ber of fur seals has been reduced
and the f'sh catch Is becoming larg
er every year.
Thus Anacortes does not 'view
* Uh alarm' any reduction of the
so.U herds of the North and should
thq time come when tho fish supply
bvgins to fall oft Anacortes may Join
In a big protest against tho protec
tion of the salmon's- most deadly
eu?*my."
DRESS AND MANNERS.
Good manners to those one
does not lore arc no more a
breach of truth than "your bum
ble servant" at the bottom of a
challenge Is. They are univer
sally agreed upon and under
stood to be things of course.
Any affectation whatsoever In
dress Implies In my mind a flaw
In the understanding.
Dress yonrself One where oth
ers are line and plain where oth
ers are plain, but take care al
ways that your clothes are well
made and fit you, for otherwlso
they will give you a very awk
ward air.
Good manner* are to particular
societies what good morals are
to society In general? their ce
ment and their security.? Lord
Chesterfield.
CONFUCIAN MAXIMS.
The path of duty lies In what
is near, aud men seek for It In
what Is remote The work of
duty Ilea lu wbat Is easy, aud
men seek for It lu wbat Is diffi
cult
Hold faithfulness and sincerity
as first principles.
Good leads men to tranquil
security
? For one word a man Is often
deemed to be wise, and for ono
word lie Is often deemed to be
foolish We ought to be careful
