This is .1 sovtrnment of dele- j
gated tower*. Originally all pow
<■#tw iu. tlie people. They .have
ut-^gaitd certain t>owers 'to Feder
al ;i:;d state governments. All pow
er- » ..U'h they have not expressly
. are*reserved to the people.
St.iu a ud Federal governments
ao;. •_ . mi's obtain more power than
is . .lied them by assuming- that
the w power falls with the po
lice power. :
The will of the people has been
t.\; us cd ..t the polls that they
wish to elect city officials. By
p-i?:i,'.i: the new enactment they
h-Hc t.ikea upon themselves the
i... to provide competent men to
il c i t v offices. Whether or not
i a ; owor will be abu3ed remains
to be <. ii. Now that we have de
idea :o be the sponsors for good
. •. ment it is up-to us to elect
'y xi\ tt ut meu to fill offices.
A f . • -.ueiit should be run-as a
l>u»in All sympathy and kind
Kvling must be eliminated. It
mu.-t l. .. strictly business proposi
\ v ly elected officuls will
b- • u • d with a. keener eye now
c i it i1 r before. It behooves them
tw L.c on the job every miuute of I
the d;>y an«l not abuse the trust
l«. il . i i :ein by the public.
Io jetiriujf members of the pres
ent i-iiy board of directorship a
I or two of oruise is certainly
TU'-y have faithfully piloted
ti:! of state through, the tur
1 u v-iurs to a port of safety.
T:: have attenl.d meetings' and
t;Ut:: r>u active iJi-.'rest in public
To them is due the cred
it tor any advancement which- we
may h.ivo made. Tublic office is a
tlnnkivis job. Laymen who only
v . t situation from afar do not
know tiie sacrifice that officials
.. v. < Hi U to make. The reward
i.- t; ivi;-1. Its the big free public
spirit* d man, who wants to see:
I:is vi;y i,. t ahead, that we find
1 :. I e city in its march, of pro- i
U<:r parting wish Is that the 1
aow members may take up thefc j
new duties with the same enthusi- i
a-^ic . rit, as has prevailed In the •
ircsect council.
The action taken by the city fire
( • [lartment to co-operate with the
city council in making the • city
beautiful is a move in the right
dirt-ctton. .We should all be mem
bers on the lire department. Spring
is ri&h* upon us, soon the sweeping
hord- of tourists will b$ passing
through our city. Many will make
this their headquarter^ Nothing
so adds to the appearance or a city
as a ck-am and well kept yard. Be
eiii to figure out your flower as
sortment and garden allotment. As
soon as the weather Is permissible
carry tp completion the plan,-which
you have formulated. AVe have the
reputation of having the most beau
tiful city in Alaaka. It is up to
us to live up to the reputation.
Now that the election is oyer
let us get behind the city officials
and buost lor our town.
That's all right, many an inspired
politician is waking up today iund
wondering what hit him.
Little Holland still has them
sutssing as to what she is going to
do. '
If the government passes the
Armor Plate Bill, what will become
cf the steel corporation. That's
what is worrying the stock holders.
Siuce the installation of the
school savings fund they have de
posited $307.45. Such thrift • is
worthy of commendation. The sav
ing spirit is what males'cap tains of
industry and finance.
Do you know that Alaska is one
fifth the size or the whole United
States.
THE POWER OP STEAM.

When Ja.ir.ej Watt saw the steam
causing the kettle 114 to Jump up and

that steam that it can lift such a
weight."
There was.
Millions prior to him had seen tho

Recent scientific research has put Its
finger on the '£ausa" of Dandruff. Fall
ing Hair, and consequent Baldness, and
has unearthed a tiny germ which eats

germ and consequently restores the
hair to its natural atata.

A Very 1 arge Mine.
There was once in Cripple Creek an
odd character unmed Burns. lie was
an odd person who always, no matter
what his work, wore what used to be
called n "Prince Albert." lie struck a
rich vein of ore and named thut the
Prince Albert. Being of a generous
and convivial disposition, this lucky
fellow was, of course, surrounded by
many self seeking friends. When he
and they were In their cu[>s some of
them, with an eye to the main chance,
managed to wheedle out of Burns on
one pretext or another a deed of a
share in his mine. With royal prodi
gality he scattered deeds about among
bis retainers and camp followers until
Anally something had to be done, and
tho case was taken into court. One of
the lawyers h;id Bums on the stand
"Sow, Mr. Burns," said the lawyer,
•'will you please tell the court how you
can explain your conduct? The evi
dence shows that you have deeded
away twenty-nine twenty-fourths of
your mine. What have you to say to
that?" "Well, sir." replied the witness,
"you must remember, sir, that the
Prince Albert is a very large mine.''
