The Douglas miner., 1897-02-03

We heartily indorse the views of our esteemed contemporary, the Searchlight, that the experiences of the past week show the c ss;ty for some means of rapid communication with Sitka. And we go great deal further and say that not only should we be in position to communicate with the seat of govern ment at Sitka quickly, but the officials of the government there should be ill position to respond promptly to our re- quests
 The absurdity ofhaving derelict like the Pinta stationed anywhere for pur- poses of protection is calculated to excite ridicule and is menace to the sec urity of life and property.
 Our little boat, the Lucy, made the voyage to Stka and return in seventy two hour She carried despatches of

Douglas. Wednesday, Feb. 5, 1896.

THE political complexion ot this pa per will be Republican. We shall sup port the national policy of our party, and be found on parallel lines with the administration which assumes office on March 4th next
 We shall, however, above all other considerations. champion the cause of Alaska i'll her struggle to effect an ame- lsoration of her anomalous condition, and shall support any legislation, ire spective of the source from which it may emanat-, which has for its object the enactment of such laws as will $uit the conditions under which we exist, and to which we are so justly entitled.
 We believe that when the government purchased this vast territory, and per mitted, and ill sense encouraged its occupancy by citizens of the United States and others, 1t assumed certain re- sponsib lities from which it is impossible to escape, and certain duties devolved upon it, i'll respect to the neglect of which itis as susceptible to criticism as would be private citizen in like circum- stances. We will admit that at the time the Organic act was passed it vas step All the right direction, but it is no longer applicable to our changed conditions and larger growth.
 We must have legislation which will h t<, Ire hI1c bus;nesslke manner. We must be placed i'll position to conduct the af- fairs of commercial life und~r the pro- tecton of and in con for,nty with, equit- able and suitable laws.
 It is contrary to our sense of the pro- prie,ies, and derogatory to our self re- spect to compel IS to associate ourselves with breach of the law when extending receiving those courtesies which are inseparable from the ordinary alileni- ties of civilized life.
 The a ement that we are not law abiding citizens will not bear analysis It would be no more inconsistent for the government to pass law making it an offense to take bath in Alaska, and then brand those who did as law break CTS, as it is to deprive us of remedial measures without which we cannot con- form to the usages of society, and then accuse us of crime.
 We believe that the time has arrived

for us to have representative ill cong ress Capital is pouring in upon us, our population is rapidly on the increase, and important mineral discoveries are constantly being made. Values are in- creasing, property is changing ownership and development goes on at every side. Our output of precious metals is assunl- ing such proportions that it will soon have an appreciable effect upon the mar kets of the world.
 Our trade with other parts of the United States is already of great magni- tude, and this year will be greater than ever before in the history of the coun- try. We anticipate tremendous influx of gold seekers the coming season and preparations are being made on every side to handle the increased business which such state of things will bring about.
 Several capitalists whose names are familiar ill mining circles have signifed 1A>A ihSSAeAOl oi SlSSluS lillS COuHlly J the coming summer and this can have but one result. We touch upon these matter to indicate that the MINER knows something of the requirements of the country. and at the right time will be found Tn line with those who have faith ill Alaska's future, and who believe that it is the duty of the govern ment to regard us as all integral part of the United States, and treat us accord ingy.
 The MINER will endeavor to keep its patrons informed upon all matters of in- terest pertaining to Alaska, its mineral deposits and new discoveries, its mining development and the movements of men engaged in its various indurt,ies. From our correspondents in various parts of the cou try we expect tolreceive accurate information upon such matters as will prove off terest to the general reader

lty, and the very source from which they emanated ought to have been sufficient to provoke an immediate response. What happenedi Did the U. s. s, Pinta weigh anchor at once and bear down to the seat of trouble and relieve the anxietv of thousands of people? No such thing. The Plnta does not do things that way. The marshal himself had to risk his life and come to Juneau in the little Lucy and employ his spare moments when not holding on to the wheel house in balino out the boat, He brought the welcome intelligence that the Pinta would sail 'next Wednesday,"
 The information on this point is vague We understand. however. that she did manage to steam for a few miles and then blew out a few of her boiler tubes and returned to Sitka for repairs. The next we heard ofthe Pinta was after tbe trouble was ull over. The outlaws boa been captured and the boats sent from Juneau were Oil their way home. and as they neared Point Retreat last Saturday morning, something which looked 1ika boat was seen i'll the distance. Upon a nearer approach 1t proved to be the u. 5. $. Pinta. The prisoners were placed oil board of her and she returned Ill triumph to the capital. The anxiety IS universal for her officers, crew and the prisoners until we hear of her safe arri- val at Sitka. We are consoled bv the assurance that the Pacific Coast steamer Topeka left Juneau for Sitka last Mon day morning, and she may find the Pinta anywhere between Point Retreat and Sitka and twill of course render her such assistance as she may require.
 The neglect of the government to give us protection here is cul lpable. No ne cessity exists for having this boat at Sltka. OfCourse she is safer there than here, for in case of an ins rrection of any kind, we could send message by a pigeon and she might stand some chauce ot getting to place of safety if she had l that she could get away from her moor ings. Of cou SC s',e would incur great | | risks by putting to sea, but one chance more or less taken by the Pinta would make no difference.
 In this immediate vicinity We produce bullion to the value of over E., COG, ,ooo a year. which is equal to 10 per cent. oil a property valuation of $2o, 1000 GOO, and our sole protection is one deputy mar shal who lies at deaths door. The as- sessed valuation of Tacoma is about $26 1000, 900, and ships of war are in and out of the Sound constantly
 We have mail steamer; from the Sound here every week, and other boats come and go chartered especially, wher, as one mail boat every two weeks is more than sufficient for the requirements of Sitka. We have 10 desire to belittle Sitka; that

The End-Seat Hog.

PubUc attention should be called to Il
certain small nuisance in connection with
street car travel in this city. IL is the
habit which some people have of occupy
ing the end seat OF the car and obIiging
everyone else who wishes TO occupy that
seat % climb past the protruding feet, UNI
breIla, and sometimes the provision basket
OF the end-seat hog. OF course, it is a
slight Inconvenience TO bo obliged 20 move
along one, two. or three seats, though 1t is
an inconvenience. too, To have people
ciamhering over various parts Of ones
anatomy, and sitting down in ones lap
when the car unexpectedly starts. But the
persen " hc does the climbing is exposed To
the risk OF being thrown off the car while
in the process of getting a seat, TO say
nothing OF the vexation OF spirit ex-
perienced in trying to get past more or
less bulky person and keeping hold of
parcels at the same time. The custom
does not obtain everywh here, and it is CON
trary to good sense and good breeding.
Tie original reason probably was that
the cud seat, on the shady end of the car.
is really the most desirable, and It is not
pleasant to sit in the blazing sun at the
other end of the seat But all Washing
ton cars are provided with shades which
can be drawn down at pleasure, and in
most cases it is only matter OF a very
few minutes discomfort at the worst.
| There is no reason, at any rate, why the
end -srst hog should persist in his repre-
hensihle practice during the evening
To See a large man or woman sitting
sefenely unconscious in the end Of
Seat, while an overburdcned woman with
a basket an umbrella and three or four
bundles painfully struggles over the bar
usr, and possibly past another person in
tie seat bevoEd, trying to hold 70 the
side Of the car with one hand and 20 the
bundIrs with the other. and get into a
seat before being thrown there i'll the
! forward jerk OF the car. s a spectacle
both pathetic and comic. 1t is time the
end-seat hog was rebuked; and it is
hereby recommended that all Of US move
along cheerfuny and promptly when we
| are IL the end seat, and request the person
occupying that seat TO move along and
give Us room, if we happen TO arrive later.
For people who are really determined to
have an outside seat for themselves there
is always the grip car, and il the practice
OF moving up becomes general we shall
all get tie end seat sometimes, if We are
good. Providence viii see to it that we
DO; aud we shah have the added con
sciousuess Of virtue in that we do not go
through the world obviously grabbing all
that We can get, whether or not it is
