The 1'rincess Alice cam© iuio
port Wednesday wording earl\ wiui
15. round-trip tourists wau, wnJi the
exception ot a run over to Bennett,
from wuich they returned between
xour and five o'clock the same
aftemocu, were lu Sea-way for ;>t»
ltours, or until 7 o'clock on Thurs
day night.
While here their sole amusement
was iu walking arouuu tovvu and
visiting the various curio stores
and tuat, naturally, taking up oiil\
a small l>art of theii time the
remainder, of necessity, was spent
on board the boat.
Many of these people while
stopping over would have liked to
have gone up to Denver glacier,
but were dissuaded from doing so
on account of the almost impassable
condition ot the trail, which li.is
been so Jong neglected tuat sever
al of the bridges are either out oi
commission entirely or badly in
need of repair, aud the footpath so
overgrowu with underbrush and
devil clubs that a grizzly bear
would find difficulty iu getting
through. .
Other trails leading from Skag
way to nearby places of interest,
while Lot so bad as the one up to
Denver glacier, also need iookiug
'ravel over them to any great ex
tent, and the sooner we realize the
fact that iu order to hold people
in town we have got to provide
means for them to pass their time
pleasantly the better for us.
A £5c hi en opportunity was lost
on Wednesday night when the peo
ple of Skagway, who are pecuuarily
interested in the tourist travel, fail
ed to provide some kind of enter
tainment for those on be. rd the
Princess Alice, many of w hom were
young people who would no doubt
have greatly enjoyed a social dance
if the opportunity had been offer
ed. 'Instead of this, however, as
-he weather was showery, they had
to find ways to amuse themselves.
There is a great deal of truth in
what a prominent W. P. & Y. K.
official said to a representative of
this paper when speaking of the
matter referred to above: "If some
of the people around Skagway, who
are continually roasting the rail
road management Jor sending out
special trains with tourists as soon
«s the boats reach here wouUl get
i move on themselves and provide
easy means of access to the many
beautiful and attractive places ad
jacent to town, in which work the
railroad company would :•] icily
i-o-operate, there would be some in
ducement to try and liold travelers
here, but as it is there is absolute
T1KXEU HOLDS WAli WITH
MEXICO WAS .ll'STIITri)
Seattle. July IS—The belief en
couraged by the school histories
that the war with Mexico from IS40
to 1S4S was the ruthless despoiling
o£ a friendly and weaker nation is
not upheld, but assailed by Dr.
Fredeick Jackson Turner of Har
vard, the authority ou the history
of the West, in his lectures before
the University of Washington sum
mer session, now in progrses.
"I know that most school books
make out the Mexican war as a
dark and foul stain 011 American
history," said Professor Turner.
"To make good contention, more ex
acting standards of conduct must be
applied to the Unitod States than
ever have been applid to any other
nation; American history must be
treated as the history of 110 Euro
pean nation ever was treafed. The
plain facts are that in 1S46 Mexico
owed us claims which she refused
to settle; she threatened us with
war if we annexed Texas, yet for
a decade had not been able to ex
ercise a bit of control over Texas;
the border between our land and
Mexico was a scene of constant
ly 110 wiiy for excursionists to put
iu their time unless they liave the
hardihood, which few of them do,
to scramble through brush and
over washed out aud boulder strewn
trails to where they wish to get."
If it cannot i>unis:i the railroads
directly New Jersey evidently is
determined to reach them through
the passengers. It has ruled that
:ho windows in all trains passing
through the state n:ust bo kepi

A New York woman has savail

It is said 3,105 actors and ac
tresses applied for jobs iu oiu
i otap;ttiy in one week in New York
Broadway must be a tousliiiif
MS lit iu these days.
Siiire the actors stole their busb
ness so extensively a lew season!
•:go, maybe the dcctectives considei
it only fair play to steal th<
actors'.

I l>ose a system of adjustment foi
peace. The system resulted in war
. Mexico was warned that if she in
sisted cn fighting we should take
California away from hor. Yet Mex
. ieo rushed in, and Mexico lost."
, Of interest to Professor Turner's
pupils at Washington have been his
lectures 011 the openiug and settle
ment of the Northwest Professoi
Turner gave perhpa3 less attentior
than the usual historian would tc
1 he diplomatic negotiations betweer
England and the United States foi
; the Oregon territory. He set the
stage for the diplomatic show, and
I then pointed out that quick and
r effective settlement of the Willa
; mette vally by bodies of Americans,
-,000 and 3,000 in number, pushed
diplomacy aside and gave the ter
ritory to the United States. Dr.
Turner in his lecture on the settle
ment of Utah, professed admiration
for the economic or material pro
gress made by the Mormons. He
said their experience in converting
the Salt Lake basin from desert
into garden lay back of every es
sential in the United States recla
mation act of 1902. He also stated
that the very migration of the
Mormons from westoril New York
to Illinois and thence across the
plains and mountains to Utah re
viewed sisnifioantly the history of
the West.
