'TWAS THK WOMEN,
GOD BLESS 'EM
At the town election yesterday
it was a clean sweep for the Non
partisan Uiiiou ticket and a glorious
victory for the women voters of
Skagway, to whom the honor of free
ing the municipality from the stig
ma attached to a boss ridden and
boss governed town, is entirely due.
The affairs of the town had so j
long been under the domination of
J. M. Tanner, that it was looked
upon as almost impossible to over
come the subtle influence he wield
ed over what has heretofore been
a. Majority of the voters of Skag
way, but at the polls yesterday,
notwithstanding the very question
able methods used by that gentle
man to swell the number of votes
cast in his own favor, at the ex
pense of the rest, of the taxpayers'
ticket, his efforts were frustrated
and he has been, we trust, relegat
ed for all time, so far as Skagway
is concerned, to the ranks of ordin
ary citizenship. .
The seven new members of the:
town council are all business men, j
aonest, uprfght and fair minded,!
and we believe that under their j
supervision and management the ad
ministration of the affairs of the
town will be carried through in a
manner satisfactory to the entire
communitty and the best interests
of all concerned.
It is unquestioned that in view
of the number of votes cast in his
favor, that Jjimes Kennedy, man
ager of the Skagway branch of the j
Will Clayson mercantile establish
! inent, will be the choice of the new
council for Mayor. Mr. Kennedy is
a native born Alaskan, a shrewd
business man, and a man against
whom, neither in his public nor in
his private life, can there be a
single reflection cast.
LOCAL WOMEN AGREE
WITH STAGE BEAUTIES
Of all women in the world, prob
ably those ou the tage are most
careful of the hair; and when such
leading stage beauties as Ethel
Barrymore, Elsie Ferguson, Nat
alie Alt. Louise Dresser, Rose
Coghlan, Laurette Taylor and many
others are so enthusiastic about
Harmony Hair Beautifler as to write
in praise of it, that is certainly
evidence that it does just what
they say it does—that is, beautifies
the hair. There are many women
right in this town, and men, too,
who regard it as indispensable,
because it makes the hair glossier
and more silky, caBier to dress and
make stay in place. Sprinkle a lit
tle on your hair each time before
brushing it. Contains uo oil; will
not change color of hair, nor dark
en gray hair. I
To keep hair and scalp daudruff
free and clean, use Harmony Sham
poo. This pure liquid shampoo gives
an instantaneous rich lather that
immediately penetrates to every
part of hair and scalp, insuring
a quick, thorough cleansing. Wash
ed off just as quickly, the entire
operation takes only a few moments.
Contains nothing that can harm the
hair; leaves no harshness or stick
iness..
Both preparations cQnie in odd
shaped, very oramental bottles,
with spriinkler tops. Harmony Hair

poo, 50c. Both guaranteed to sat

The Daily Alaskan takes off ila
uat to James Kennedy for Mayor,
WILL HAVK TO STIDV IT
Notwithstanding tho fact tliat
the eyes of practically the whole
civilized world have been turned
toward Alaska and the Yukon for
the past sixteen or eighteen years
and that the wholesale houses of
the Pacific Coast have been doing
business with the merchants of the
North for the same length of time,
the crass ignorance oi' this north
ern region displayed by some of
these outside shippers is almost
unbelievable.
For instance, a few weeks ago
we sent an order for piinting ma
terial to the American Typo Found
ers Co. of Portland, Oregon, and
the other jlav received the articles
listed as "Invoice of goods gold by
the exporters prior to their ship
ment to Canada."
That others in Alaska are hav
ing the same experience as we
had is proven by the following,
taken from the Ketchikan Miner of
tecent date:
"Another example of the ignor
ance of matters Alaskan was shown
in a letter received by a local firm
from Schwabachers in Seattle talk
ing about "American Alaska" as
being treated one way and British
Alaska some other way. One would
think that a concern as close to
Alaska as this one is would have
a better knowledge of our geo
graphy." J
WHY WE 1)11) NOT
As everyone appeared to bo par
ticularly well contented with the
way the. municipal election was pro
gressing yesterday the manage
ment of the Daily Alaskan came
to the conclusion that it was un
necessary to issue the special ed
ition of which we gave nctice in
our columns Monday.
FORD'S SELFISHNESS.

Purified Blood
HHHB
SOLVES Most of Sick
*•
ness Probloms
People who have been poulticing
and anointing for years and years
marvel at the way Purola does the
work.
When you come to realize that
the skin and flesh beneath are
composed of a network of tiny
blood vessels you solve the mystery.
There are wonderful medicinal
properties in Purola Syrup Sarsap
arilla compound that follow tho
course of the blood stream just as
naturally as the most nourishing
food elements.
Thousands know it to be really a
remarkable remedy. It contains one
ingredient, the active purpose of
which is to stimulate the tissues
to the healthy selection of its own
essential nutriment. And the "med
icinal elements of thij matchless
blood purifier are just as essen
tial to well-balanced health as the
nutritious elements of the meats,
grains, fats and sugars ;of our daily
food," said a well-known physician.
Not only this, but if from the
i presence of some distributing poi
son there is a local or general in
terference of nutrition to cause
boils, carbuncles, abcesses and kin
dred troubles, Purola Syrup Sarsap
arilla compound, so direct the
local cells that this poison is re
jected and eliminated from their
presence.
Then, too, Purola Syrup Sarsap
arilla compound, has such specific
stimulation on these local'cells ae
to preserve their mutual welfare
and a proper relative assistance to
each other. *
Not one drop of minerals or
drugs is used in its preparation.
Ask for Purola Syrup Sarsaparilla
compound, and just insist upon
having it.—Keller Bros. Drug Co.
