THE CITY ELECTION
The municipal pot which has up
till now been unruffled and serene
ia beginning to seethe aud bubble
and we presume before the day of
election will be at boiling point. !
Why it should be so is beyond our j
ken, but there is an air of mystery |
surrounding the movements of the J
local politicians which would lead |
one of the uninitiated to surmise |
that the settlement of affairs of
vital importance to the well being of
the town was under consideration, j
whereas, as a matter of fact, the
only question to be passed upon
is the qualification of seven men
whom it is desired to elect to take
charge of the city's affairs for the j
ensuing year. '
While the importance o£ choosiug
the right men is uot to be quest
ioned, we (ail to see the need of so
much secrecy and deJay iu the sel
ection of candidates, as it appears
to us that the people should be
early made aware of the identity
of those whom they are expected
to support and be given ample op
portunity to inform themselves of
and discuss their merits and do
merits.
✓Publicity will do more to put
capable and disinterested men at
the head of municipal affairs than
all the quiet buttonholing and
gumshoe work that can possibly be
indulged in, and will have a ten
dency to eliminate those cliques of
people whose sole aim is to pro
mote their own interests irrespec
tive of the rights of others.
THE FIRST OF APRIL.
I
Today is the 1st of April, or |
what is commonly known as "All j
Fools' Day", when even the most j
sedate are constantly on the alert'
to 'put one over' on their friends j
or any one else who Is not wide
awake enough to steer clear of the
machinations and shameless sub-1
terfuge* which they invent to in-j
duce dupes to nibble at their al-1
leged joks. However, it is sel
dom that anything is done to hurt
one's feelings and the observance
ot tTic custom is as much enjoyed
by the victim as it is by the pei>
pArator of tho joke.^
! In Skugway the 1st of April,
1914, was ushered in by those mag- j
nificent atmospheric conditions
which obtain hi few localities except
those of the north—a balmy, spring
like day with the bright sunshine
reflecting almost dazzingly from
the surface of the snowcapped
mountain peaks that rear their
heads majestically upon all sides.
Truly it is good to live when
one's lines are cast in such a pleas
ant and invigoratiug climate as
this and in the midst of a wealth
of scenic grandeur that cannot be
surpassed in any portion of _ the
globe.

"Poor" John D. Rockefeller! They
Want $12,000,000 Tax from Him
SUPPOSE you were worth • mere $900,000,000 in personal property, or at
least were worth that much In the estimation of the tax assessor, and
you were taxcO $12,000,000 for the past year. would you kick? That
wan" fhe position that John D. Rockefeller, the ex-oil king, found him
self In. He kicked. The Cleveland authorities placed that valuation upon bis"
personality, and the $12,000,000 tax was duly imposed Mr Rockefeller pro
tested and left it to his lawyers to tight It out He returned to one of his
several hoa ps, Pooantico Hills, N. i, to ponder over the cruel ways of Ohio
tax assesso and incidentally to play golf. This is .Mr Rockefeller's latest
•mi best picture. The background is part of bis PocHntlco Hills home.
HOW TO TAKE 6000
CHE OF YOUR KM1
I
Nothing spoils your good looks
so much as homely hair—Stringy,
dull colored, harsh. Nothing adds
to good looks so much as beautiful
bair—soft, silky, wavy and glossy.
No mutter how beautiful your
buir Is now, you can improve Its
good looks by using Harrariy Hair
Beautifier. If your hair is home
good looks by using Harmony Hair
Beautifier will make it softer, silk
ier, more beautiful in every way,
and easier to put up and "stay put.'
Its rich rose odor hides the un
pleasant oily smell of the hair. It
| is rightly named; it beautifies the
jliair. 1
Very easy to appiy—mmyij
sprinkle a little on your hair each
time before brushing it It contains
no oil, and will not change the
color of the hair, nor darken gray
hair. To keep hair and scalp dan
druff free and clean, use Harmony
Shamnco.. This pure liquid sham
poo gives an iu3tantaneous rich la
ther that immediately penetrates
to every paxt of hair and scalp, in
suring a quick and thorough clean
sing. Washed off juet as quickly,
the entire oepration takes only a
few moments. Contains nothing
that can harm the hair; leaves
no harshnesti or stickiness.
Both preparations come in odd
shaped, very ornamental bottles,
with springier tops.. Harmony Hair
Keautifier, $1.00. Harmony Sham
poo, 50sc. Both guaranteed to sat
isfy you in in every way, or your
money back. Sold only at the
more than 7,000 Rexail Stores,
