■ :-v - ' - ■ ■ • *
' In the hurry of goijpg to press on
Thufsflay evoplng Jtord was brought
"to tfife; offi.Ce tUat Covernor Scott C.
lioaP had gone out on the train to
'the Summit. This was not the case,
<*&«ternor was in town, rode
and visited a number of
people, aud talked sympathetically
to those whom lie met on the affairs
of Skagway. The Governor express
ed himself as interested in the ques
tions of better facilities for the tak
iug care of the tourists who are
tlocking to this country, and pledged
himself to do what he could for
Skagway, ill-so-far as our problem is
associated with the larger problem
of the Territory. We expect his ac
tive help in the matter of the new
ly proposed Town park across the
river and in the road project to Den'I
ver glacier aud the wood lots in
that vicinity.
The Governor is on his way to
Sitka, where ha will visit the people
of Alaska's first capital city for a
short time.
It is hoped His Honor will pay
Skagway a visit of longer duration
in the near future, when the people
of Skagway may get better acquaint
ed with him, confident that such ac
quaintance will be mutually pleas
ant aud beneficial.
FOIRTH OF JV1.Y
Will Skagway celebrate the Foruth
of July? If this is co be done steps
should immediately be taken to pro
vide a suitable program of games,
etc., for the occasion. These are
•tiever satisfactory when provided at
the last moment. But four weeks
intervene before thai date and some
tiling should be done immediately if
things are to be provided as they
should be.
"WONDER CITY* WITHERS
WITH POTASH SU Ml*
Lincoln, Neb., May 2.--Antinch,
"the wonder city,' rapidly is slip
ping back to Antioch, the flag sta
tion.
From a sleepy, sun-parched vil
lage of 200 inhabitants to a thriv
ing manufacturing city of more than
S.nOO was the almost overnight
transformation wrought on \ntlocli
by war. Thus the town acquired its
^o!>r!(|uet 'Nebraska's Wonder Cily.'
With the coming oi pea'ie theie
vhs uo further excuse for -modi
ti;i' (ity. It's Industry- potash —
was dead.
Aiitiuch. the Han station, in West
ern Nebraska, was surrounded l>y a
clia n of stagnant lakes, the waters
of which were heavily preguated
with chemicals believed to have no
commercial value. With t!.e declar
ation of war it was discovered one of
these deposits was potash. Govern
ment chemists made a favorable re
port o" the waters, and Uncle Sam
spoilt $5,000,000 ill a string of pot
as!i-ret1ning plants and evaporating
systems at Antioch. Lured by hign
wages, an army of 5,000 workers
docked to the place, bu.lt the mush
room city and "stuck around" until
thu armistice whistles blew.
With the potash market dead one
plant after another suspended. An
I tioch shriveled ulmost as rapidly as
! it hud grown. The population that
' had spread out over an expanse uf
Iwi d-swept prairie gradually coucen
tra'ed into a few houses near the
I little red-brick station—the flag
stal on that served Aatioch before
the boom days.
Today less thau 500 persons claim
Antioch as their home, and of these
250 are said to be without occupa
I tion.

THE APPROACHES TO
RKIOOK COMPMSTED
The approaches to Alpine bridge
at the foot of Third street are com
pleted and ready for service by the
people of Skagway. The work has
been done with expedition and in
excellent shape by the White Pass
bridge gang. Those who desire to
go to Smugglers Cove, Long Bay or
t« any part of the ridge across the
river now have^tn easy means of
getting there at this end of town.
This bridge and its connection is n
long-delayed want supplied, it is an
other concrete illustration of what
can be bad when the people of Skag
way go after it.
If we haven't nil that we should
have here in Skagway, the reason
is because we have not gone after it.
If something of the same zeal a«d
spirit had characterized the gener
al work of the town in the past ten
years, we would now have some of
the best trails and lodges here and
there about the hillsides to make
this a splendid summer resort for
those who want a quiet place to rest.
This bridge and the library are
concrete lessons In cooperation
which should not be lost for some
'time. Two thousand dollars raised
and spent by the people of Skagway
for these two excellent projects In
two years. Yet no one is the poor
er by a cent, and all are the recip
ients of tliese benefits and wi'l be
for years to come.
Yes. of course, we would lil"e to
have had the approach from this end
come right straight out to Third
avenue. And we would like to have
had the approach at the other end
ascend by a gradual incline to the
trail above, but 'hat would have
meant another th Dusand dollars.
That, too, will come in time if we
are ready to work, but why not em
phasize the fact tl.at this, for the
present, serves ttic purpose admir
ably. Let's see how line it is and get
busy 011 something more needed in
our town.
