GOOD NEWS FOR ALASKANS.
t * - - -
The quick settlement of the longshoremen’s strike is cause
for Alaskans to congratulate themselves. Much inconvenience
and needless expense, to say nothing of delay in projected work,
is avoided by the prompt settlement of the differences between
the longshoremen and ship owners.
It matters not who is right nor who is wrong, the sufferers
in this strike had it continued for any length of time, as is al
ways the , would have been the innocent third party, who is
dependent upon the contestants for service.
It is not difficult to concede the inconveniences, if not ac
tual hardships which would have been inflicted upon the people
of Alaska had the strike continued for the next three months.
'With all the vessels in the Alaskan trade handling all the
freight they can carry under normal conditions with every de
partment working smoothly, the strike of the longshoremen
would have meant that much of the freight destined for Alaska
must await the settlement no matter how long that might he
delayed’.

depend for their winter grubstakes, must be handled in the next
three months, and if that were delayed ,it would have meant
that many of the interior residents would have had to come to
the outside, which would have cuused a paralysis of industry
there for the winter.
Happily the trouble is averted, and the people can -be
thankful that the longshoremen and their employers had the
good sense to get together.

TWO PAY THE PENALTY.
The execution at Doming vesterd’av of the two Mexicans
who participated in the raids on Columbus March 9, while it
makes no reparation for the lives of the seventeen Americans
who lost their lives at that time, will demonstrate to our south
ern neighbors that though the United States may be slow in
moving, when it does start it is thorough.
These unfortunate Mexicans ,unfortunate because of their
ignorance, are the first to be tried in an American court of law
for participation in organized raids and found guilty.
Although the raiding of American border towns has been
a favorite pastime with lawless Mexicans for several years,
with the exception of a few who occasionally were shot by citi
zens or soldiers, all managed to cross the border, where they
were safe from pursuit by the American peace. officers or
troops. '
The hanging of the two outlaws will have a salutary effect
upon the rest of the bandits, who have thought that raiding
American border towns was one of the safest and most pleasant
of outdoor sports.
There were seven bandits captured, convicted and sen
tenced to be hanged yesterday at Deming. What >vas done
with the other five members of the gang was not stated in the
dispatches, but it is probable their sentences were commuted.
At any rate, two of the bunch paid the death penalty, and that
will serve as a warning for t’ e rest to be careful, even if they
can’t be good.
