We believe that Skagway is the
only incorporated 'own m the ter
ritory of Alaska, which h:s the
equivocal distinction of h n\i'g the
ordinances passed by the town coun
cil advertised by posting on
the street corner instead of
through the columns of its
local newspaper That the
latter is the proper way is.
recognized and followed l>v civic
bodies in all communities where up
to-date methods are followed and
where the governing powers are,
willing to have fhe results of their
official actions passed upon by
those whom they most nearly arut;
and as a vehicle for th-j denomin
ation of this information to the
general public there can be no be -
ter nor more effective way than by
the aid of the home paper, w hicli s
a general rule is read by every
man and woman and every child 01
school ago in town, while not one
person in a hundred, by the form, r
method, unless they have some
particular reason for so doing, will
hunt up and take the time to read
a type written document, which more
ofteu than not has been tacked u,>
on the corner of some building oc
cupied asi a saloon—at lease tlii
ls the fate that has befallen .ill tli
ordinances that have been passed
in Skagway for tne pas: year.
While we are well aware that th«■
detractors of the Daily Alaskan will
claim Unit it is from selfish motives
alonu that we are advoiuting the
columns of the paper as the proper
medium, for publicity, their con
tention will only be i-'irtlv borne
cut by the facts. Hut as all busi
ness transactions are oil a more or
less selfish nature we shall have
to plead guilty to a desire to get
what legitimately belongs to us
from the town in the way of ad
vertising, and for which in the
i ourse o: the year we "Oturn bene
fits many fold in excess of those
w h ic ii v\ c rec ei v e.
There is another matter, also, to
which we desire to call tlie atten
tion of the town council, and that
Is, i '.q publication of the annual
statements of the town treasurer
and the town clerk. Outside of
Kkagway there is not a municipality
i:i the territory that doi>s not furn
ish to the tax payers through the
columns of the local p-ijer a re
port of the moneys collected
aud expended duri.ig the
previous term and the amount |
of cash on hand at the I
time when the reins of government
change hauds. it is something that
fhouM be done not alone for the
enlightenment of those who furnish
the money to run the to ah govern
ment, but for self-protaction by j
the ii.coming countilmea themselves.

People with kidney 131s want to!

F. A. Sutton, tent c.u<\ awing |

trouble and rheumatism for ten

Doctors did not help m-j. Sharp
pains extended through my back
and wero most severe in iuv kid
neys and loins. Often wiI't work

l ad heidaches, rested b.u HUIh at |

Doan's Kidney Pills and to my j
surprise, they brought a ^reat 1m- |

tinued to get better ste'iliiy. I got
more sleep, my appetita 'mprovod
and the pains gradually, tut sure

boxes of Doan's Kidney Tills, I
was in better health than I had
been for ten years and net a sign
of kidney complaint remained. The
cure has been permanent. I gladly
confirm the endorsemeut I gave
Doan's Kidney Pills several years
