H1DE8TEP8 GUGGENHEIM I88UE.
Has our flre-eatlng, plot-exposing,
combine-hating, economical Delegate
formed a combine with the Guggen
heims? Is he trying to get on the
payroll of that company, in case he
loses the Delegateship? These are
questions which are agitating the vo
ters of the Third Division. Before
our head-hunting Representative
started upon his now famous tour of
the Territory, our citizens expected to
bear the Guggenheims and the steam
ship companies made the target of
the Delegate’s prolific oratory. So far
they have been disappointed. He has
told stories, (this can be interpreted
several ways), uttered columns of
meaningless phrases; made number
less explanations of his actions, which
refuted nothing charged against him,
and flayed his opponents; but on the
subject of the Guggenheims and the
transportation companies he has been
as mum as an oyster. He might at
least have told our citizens that he
paid his fare on the aforesaid lines
and was not being franked through,
as in the case of his numerous cam
paign documents. Wickersham is a
disappointment to both friends and
enemies this campaign. He lacks the
virility of former years; his thoughts
are slower, and the former vltrollc
punches now resemble grape juice
in comparison with the verbal bever
ages our citizens have enjoyed. In
spite of persistent denials by his wor
shippers the story continually crops
up that Wickersham has tendered the
olive branch to the Guggenheims;
that he is on the eve of consummat
ing a deal for the attorneyship for
that powerful corporation.
As a staunch Republican Wicker
shaiu realizes that his position on
subject of placing a commission over
corporations is not consistent. He has
placed himself between the devil and
the deep sea and is casting about for
a way to stave off publicity until
after election.
Up to the present minute not one
word of the Delegate’s intentions re
garding his position on these impor
tant matters has been allowed to
reach the papers. Just what position
Mr. Wickersham will take when he
speaks at points in the interior where
there are no newspapers to spead his
utterances before the public, is not
yet known.
But the fact remains that if the
Delegate intends to assail the large
corporations he had a splendid chance
at both Anchorage and Valdez, but
he side-stepped the issue.
IT LOOKS LIKE A DEAL.
Less than three months have elap
sed since Delegate Wickersham threw
a bomb which landed squarely with
in the transportation circles operat
ing between Seattle and Alaskan ports
and in Alaska. When the bomb was
thrown there was trembling in high
transportation ranks and the common
people, those who pay the freight—
both literally and figuratively speak
ing—rejoiced that a day of reckon
ing was at hand.
Has any person anything concern
ing the charges lately? Did the Dele
gate refer to the matter in his ad
dresses last week at either Juneau,
Douglas or Valdez? Was anything
said about iniquitous conspiracies en
tered into for the purpose of boosting
freight charges at the expense of the
patrons of the transportation com
panies.
On the subject of transportation
conspiracy the Delegate was as dumb
as a clam. He did not assail the Gug
genheims as in former combines. He
did not say anything about freight
combines. These were subjects not
touched upon his “olive branch" ad
dress.
The question which the average vo
ter in this vicinity is now propound
ing is, “Why did the Delegate refrain
from assailing these transportation
companies which he charged only
three months ago with conspiring to
rob the people of Alaska?" We are
not going to answer the question at
this time.
Within a few days news from the
westward, for which portion of the
Territory the Delegate left Gastlneau
Channel last Sunday, will answer the
question and the answer will be an
eye-opener.
When the news comes from the
westward it will be to the effect that
the capital interests there—the Gug
genheim "interests—are not fighting
the Delegate as in former years; also,
that the Delegate is not fighting the
Guggenheims as in former years.
There are yet five weeks in which
the electorate of Alaska can verify
the statements here made. Keep
close tab on what happens in the vi
cinity of the Copper River and North
—western Railroad-atm tf the Delegate
does not fight the Guggenheims and
the Quggenhelms do not fight the
Delegate, then remember the heading
of this article and ask yourselves)
“Does It look like a deal?"—Doug
las Island News.
ALASKANS TURNED DOWN.
WICKERSHAM stated that the rea
son he appointed a young man from
Delaware to a cadetship at WeBt
Point, was for the reason that no one
in Valdez was competent to hold the
position, and as the young man he
appointed was born in Valdez It was
the same as appointing a home boy.
In the first place there is no record
of the young man being born In
Valdez. The claim that his father
came here with Major Abercrombie
cannot be proven, and the records
show that Major Abercrombie brought
no man by the name of Babcock with
him to Valdez. In the second place
If the young man had been born In
Valdez and lived in this city up to the
last year he had forfeited all rights
to appointment by removing his resi
dence. And furthermore the fact
that Valdez had no young men suffi
ciently qualified to receive the ap
pointment was no excuse for leaving
the Territory to find a cadet. There
are many other towns in Alaska with
educated youths in them.
Many of our citizens were born
elsewhere than Valdez. Would the
congressmen of their home state ten
der them an appointment and turn
down constituents in his own district?
Not on your life! The weak argu
ment the Delegate put up as to his
reasons for going out of the Terri
tory to appoint a cadet to West Point
would not be accepted anywhere but
perhaps in Valdez, and then only by
a man afflicted with Wickicitts.
The fact of the matter is that the
Delegate hunted for an excuse to turn
down an Alaska boy. Instead of an
nouncing the vacancy publicly thru
the medium of Alaskan papers, many
months in advance, so that students
could post thmselves on information
required, he gave his appointees no
chance to make good. They were
examined and rejected far too quickly
to enable them to make any showing.
It speaks ill for the education of
the Alaskan youth that out of the
many thousands In the Territory, not
one, according to our Delegate, was
blessed with the gray matter of the
Delaware phenomenon.
DOLLARS VH. «)(MN»00
AS AN example of how men will
work against their own interests, we
call attention to several men who
work for the Road Commission all
summer at highly remunerative
wages and then put their winters in
working against the Road Commis
sion. In other words they work and
talk for Delegate Wlckersham, who
works and talks against the Road
Commission and its work. Mr. Wick
ersham advocates the removal of the
Road Commission offices to Juneau;
he also advocates removing the court
house and cable office to Seward. If
these things are taken out of Valdez
with their immense payroll, what
would become of our city? How
many dollars a year do you get out
of these institutions? How many dol
lars do you get out of Wickorsham?
Balance the one against the other
and which Is of the most benefit to
our city? The city could get along
better without a Delegate; but its
very existence depends upon its
clinging to its payrolls.
A PROMINENT lawyer once stated
that he could cause a jury to see what
ever he wished them to see; that his
mind dominated their mind to an
extent of producing fantasmogenesis.
This curious psychological phenome
non was illustrated in Valdez when
Judge Wlckersham stated that the
father of the boy appointed as a ca
det came here with the Abercrombie
expedition and was born here. De
spite the fact that the records on file
in the Road Commission office here
gives the names of each of Abercrom
bie’s men, and shows they were all
military men, a gentleman In the aud
ience arose and orally confirmed the
Delegate’s assertion by saying that
he remembered the man well. Now a
>outh to be appointed as a cadet must
be 18 years of age. The — Delegate
says the boy was born in Valdez.
This would make the boy’s advent
into this cruel world happen along
early in 1898. A man would have to
have a wonderful memory indeed to
remember the birth of a strange lad
18 years ago, with people flocking
in here by the thousand. It reminds
us of a story of a revivalist who visit
ed Scrivens County, Georgia, and in
the course of his exhortation asked
hlB hearers if any of them had seen
Christ (meaning spiritually.) Where
upon a tall mountaineer arose In the
back rows of seats and remarked: “I
seed that there feller over at Tur
key Springs yisteddy.’’ While the evi
dence was entirely corroborative it
lacked the necessary forco of affirma
tion. .. T •- . -

THE “HUMAN MIRACLE."
Laughter a Blessing No Bird, Beast
Fish or Reptile Poseeeees.
In the London Opinion the sage
Janies Douglas, speculating on that
pleasurable emotion which Is accompa
nied by face cracking movements of
the muscles of the physiognomy and a
brightness of the eyes and la known
as laughter, describes the phenomenon
as “the human miracle" and says:
“No bird or beast or flsb or reptile
can laugh. You can teach an ape to
do almost anything, hut you cannot
teach him to laugh. The awful sol
emnity of animals Is the one really In
tolerable thing on this earth. They are
cut off from the abiding miracle of hu
mor.
“A wise man has warned us to In
terrogate ourselves when we laugh. 1
totally and entirely repudiate that di
abolical doctrine. Never Interrogate
yourself when you laugh. You should
never look a laugh In the mouth.
“There are many kinds of laughter,
but they are all good. Interrogate
yourself If you like when you weep.
But If you value the well being of
your soul never Interrogate yourself
when you laugh. Laughter Is a good
thing In Itself and an end by Itself.
The quality of laughter, like the quali
ty of mercy, ought never to be strain
ed. Laugh before you look."—New
York Times.
OUR PLACE IN THE SUN.
Human Balnga, Lika Plants, Naad Much
of tha Outdoor Lifa.
A home without windows was built
for the blind In a certain English com
munlty. Scientific beating and ventila
tlon were provided. But architects
and trustees reasoned that light was
not necessary In a house of sightless
people.
Then they discovered that human be
tngs, like plants,(dwindle and die when
deprived of the light of the suuf And
they had to remodel their bulldlug and
let in the sun's rays to keep the blind
alive.
Since the Invention of the electric
light we have all treated sunlight with
amazing Indifference, in summer es
pecially we spend much time, thought,
energy and money protecting ourselves
from the sun.
And In so doing we often ure acting
not much more wisely than the com
mittee that built a bouse without light
for the blind. In summer, for Instance,
we try to escape the sun when we actu
ally need Its services In the cause of
good health.
So take your work and play out of
doors when possible. Don't fear sun
stroke. Don’t be afraid of sweat and
tan.—Toledo News-Bee.
Qrlnnsd Into Matrimony.
That grinning matches were an ac
oepted form of sport In early English
days la shown by an advertisement
announcing a gold ring to be grinned
for by men on Oct 9 at the Swan,
ColesbUl heath, Warwickshire, which
appeared In the Post Boy of Sept. 17,
171L Addison gives a detailed ac
count of one of these “controversies of
fuces,’’ telling us that the audience
unanimously bestowed the ring on a
cobbler who “produced several uew
grins of his own Invention, having
been used to cut faces for many years
together over his last-’
His performance was something like
this: “At the very first grin he cast
every human feature out of his coun
tenance, at the second he simulated
the face of a spout, at the third that
of a baboon, at the fourth the bead of
a baas viol and at the fifth a pair of
nut crackers.” Addison adds that a
comely wench whom he had wooed in
vain for more than five years was so
charmed with his grins that she mar
tied him the following week.
Bites as Required.
He was trying to sell a dog, a band;
legged brute, with features calculated
to stop a motorcar, and the old lad;
did not seem averse to buying one
Their ideas as to the brute’s value
scarcely corresponded, however, aud
there was little prospect of agreement
when suddenly the lady demanded:
“Will he bite?"
"Only his meat, mum,” responded
the fancier.
“Oh, but 1 wanted one fbr tramps.”
“Tramps Is his meat, mum,” was the
artful reply, and there was a deal, aft
er alL—Exchange.
Disorder.
I distrust both the Intellect and mo
rallty of people to whom disorder la of
no consequence. What surrounds us
reflects more or less that which Is
within us. The uilud Is like one of
those dark luuterus which In spite of
everything still throw some light
around If our tastes did not reveal
our character they would be no louger
tastes, but Instincts.—Emile 8ouvestre
The Lesser of Two Evils.
“I’ll be mighty glad when 1 start to
school,” announced Willie one day.
