TOURIST SEASON
The. City ot Ska,; way weloamn
the approaching touris* season; with
open arms. While our olmwitic
conditions have been a bit wiutery
of lute and a wee bit delayed as cam
pared with last year, iieveittiek«B
we have much to o**er the tourw
In the way of scenic wonders. •
Th's week sees tha opening of
the season. The arrival of the
Alice, lieorge Spokane, Jefferson^
and westward boats to our wort will
bring a throng of tourists, tsoaie to
tarry with us a few days, some
hurriedly passing through our city
and others returning on the same
boat. The impression, which these
people get of southeastern Alaska
and uarticularly Skagway .will in th
malu determine whether or not thel
neighbors will make fhe trip next
dimmer.
A loyal, euthuaiaatio spirit dis
played by the people of Skagway,
'ind business houses operating in
the 'Hy will be a big factor in de
termining that for the tourist.
Kvery one admires a bccster—it is
rare for a knocker to do very much
for t city. Let's all join the boosters
club and watch the effects that it
will have upon our citv. We do not
advocate the nHsnaprw^utaiioaa of
actual conditions but we have much
to boost for ia Skagway. First we
hive *he best townsi'e in Alaska;
an 'deal climate net to be found
anj where in the territory; the best
people on the face of the ^arth
and many opportunities awaiting to
be developed. There's work ahead
cituens, so let's rise to the oc
casion and help tha good work
along.
CAUTION
Busiutss conditions are exception
ally s-.'isiactor}' in mtity rejects,
at;d much more so thaa slock
market movements iauicate. There
is some disposition to hesatate, ow
ing to high prices, war and politi
cale uncertainties, also to a closer
serutiay of credit, bu.' this tendency
has ut>t thus far become sufficient
ly pronounced to induce uiore than
a rat ial slowing dowa. of activity,
which, 'aking all things iuto con
sideration, was 6omtWii.it desira&le
The war created abuoiuial condi
tions in certain directions, and
there was serious danger of reck
less expansion and speculation un
less some form of restrain was im
posed. This developed a more cau
tionary spirit among those who fi—
sum; the initiative; bankers have
become more discriminating and
merchaivts are careful tot to over
stock, while manufacturers are
uroteotii'g themselves against con
tingencies with more than ordinary
conservatism. In consequence there
is a widespread optimum through
out the country mixeu with a
strong veing of caution.
( HANGING CONDITION'S
A changing political viewpoint
is prevalent the country over
amorgst the great silsut mass of
the thinking American people. No
longer Is it possible for political
leaders :o storm the country and
with appetizing promises which
never came from the heart of the
speaker or never was attempted
when he was elected »c swing the
votes of the American citizen.
The mas who ente.-j pott.ical>llfe
in ihl3 day and age must come -be
fore the people with a record, au
unflinching character End be pre
pare 'o be of service to the peo
ple cn a Juat basis and not from
the view of enriching his own pri
vate coffers or of the interests
from which he received his politi
cal existence*. f

but slowly rifling from its bed of

model man to be on every ticket,
but ienerally speaking the republi
can party is oa the moving tide
which is fastly rising to its high
water mark.
LIVE STOCK
Regardless of the warning is
sued by the city marshal, certain
| owner* of stock prefer to trample
&v»r the rights of o-'hers and lei
their stock Tun loose over the city,
.myiii^ no heed to the damage t^t
they might do to unfcaced gardens
and lawns.
When considered frojn a strictly
financial standpoint is often
much cieaper to pui chase fifteen
or twenty feet of rops at one of
the local stores, thereby patronizing
oine Industry, than to mn the pos
sible chance of bailing the aulmal
ut of the city pound or incur the
enmity of your neighbor.
The above of course bears no
weight 'o a person so self center
ed as 'o care nothing about the
dan>age which their loose stock may
do *o the surrounding neigtlboihootj^
The continual cry of 'he cominunl
fy is to fix up the home In a pleas
ing atmospiht re, plant gardens, flow
er beds and make the home look as
f it »vere the palace of those liv
iag within—but such is near an
impi ssioility when these net so vi
