HRWAItft: Already ■ few people
have changed Ihelr lima back fo thej
old time after thinking It over, ft'
hna dawned on them they were footed
hy the Idea that the people Who slgn
ed a petition really wanted a change
of time when the petition wa* signed
because a “very charming personal
tty" presented the petition, ff that
petition had been to set fire to the
railroad or some other building It
would have been signed Just the
same. You can have any petition
signed. Hut the result la that SeW
ard la laolated so far as time ta cOn
earned.
The adoption of (he new time hy
the railroad preaUtnahty now mentis
lbat a telcgraf.li message sent from
Howard would reach Aachorage about
an hour before It was sent. The
steamships maintain the same hid
time and refuse like the railroads run
ning Into Seattle to Change.
Seattle unit the crary Idea. tJhO
result of the change for the pnst (we
days Is that men, eapedalfy (hose
working on the railroad, have to get
up In darkness, so bringing winter
before Its time. Many bitslneas people
this morning expressed (heir disgust
ul the Insane alteration hul nre fote
