THE NEW AND Ttt!. OLD
After a year's administration ot
city affaire thu members of the
Skagway town council stepped down
and out last night and their places
were filled by an entirely new set
of men of whose abilities tn cominer
clal and industrial pursuits and of
whose honesty of purpose there
can be no question, nut whose
qualifications and lituess for the
positions they now fill, with the ex
ception of Mr. Ashley, arj unknown
quantities, requiring time and op
portunity to determine tully.
Economy iu the conduct of the
affairs of the town is the keynote
to the situation, but cconomy is
not synonymous with parsimony,
neither is it typified iu tl-c hoard
ing up iu the city treasury of uiou
eyB raised from the taxation ot town
property for the express purpose
of the upkeep of the municipal
utilities and the needed imple
ment and repairs of tha streets,
cross walks, or any otner work
that comes within the scope of the
council.
Far better is it for a town to
be a few hundred, or even a t'o.v
thousand dollars in debt, with some
thing to show for it in ".be added
beauty and attractiveness of its
surroundings than to have the same
amount on hand In cash and every
thing within the incorporation wear
ing a look of neglect aud decay.
We believe the new council will
look at the matter in thv proper
light and be imbued with the idea
that moneys spent in public improve
ments are not irretrievably lost, but
will be returned in ten fold value
in the course of time.
( Of the members of tho outgoing
council wo have nothing to say
| particularly, and while we
j were not in accord with
their policy of allowing the
I sidewalks to become in their pres
frut reprehensible and dangerous
condition in many places In town,
we feel that this may have
been brought about J-.y false
notions of economy and not through
a wilful neglect of the duties which
they were sworn to perform.
Of the ci'y officers who were el
ected at hist night's secsion wo
can only say that, with the excep
tion of Town Magistrate and Treas
urer Martin Conway, they wore all
unanimously re-elected, which in
itself is a sufficient recommenda
tion as to their qualifications
and abilities. As to Mr. Conway's
fitness for the office to which he
was elected there can be no ques
tion.
To the members of the incom
ing council we offer our hearty sup
port in all measures that may come
up that have for their object the
welfare and advancement of the
people of Skagway.
FORMING HABITS.
Be careful about how you form
habits. Some young people never
consider habit forming. They form
none but accidental and unconscious
habits. They know so little that
they think they cou'd change any
habit they have in a day. Yet in
reality they are binding themselves
in chains of iron and making a free
and har.py life impossible for them
selves lat?r on.
Parkertown, O. April £1—Uncle
Sam's parcel post will carry about
6,000,000 queen bees trom this j
place during the coming summer
in small packages destined to all |
parts of the civilized world. H. C5.'
Qulrin, who operates perhaps the |
largest bee farm in t:ie United |
States estimates his orders will call
for that number of queens. Las: j
year Quirin shipped queen bees I
with their "escorts" of working be^l
in little parcel post packages to i
all parts of America, Europe. Japan, i
Cuba, China aud the West Indies.
Quirin has raised queens he j
valued at $300. These however
were extraordinary stock. The reg-;
ular stock are worth from J1 to $3. .
In addition to his queens, the bee
magnate expetcs to have employed
about 60,000,000 workers the com
ing season making many tens of
honey.

Berlin, April 21—There J>re 400,- |
I'UO drunkards in Germany of whom
•5 0,000 are women. Th'-s was the
declaration made by President Frau
Gerken at the meeting of the Ber
lin Women's Association against Al
coholism. Frau Gerken said that I
there were between 2,500 and 3,000
drunkards in Berlin. Speaking of the
psychology of drunkards Frau Ger
ken said that while men were fond
of noisesome companionship in
drinking, women drunkards tried to
conceal their failing aatl were ad
dicted to "solitary sprees." In most
cases, she said, heavy drinking
rmong women was due to sickness,
unemployment, loss of standing and
despondency. She said H was more
difficult to cure and restore a
woman than a man.
