WANTS PROHIBITION IN ALASKA.

It is reported that Arthur c. Jackson, president of an organization that calls itself the Alaska Geographical Society. introduced, or caused to be introduced a resolution at the meeting of the w. c. T. U. at Seattle, demanding the resto- ration of the prohibition laws in Alas ka. Just what the convention did concerning the matter, we are not in formed, but the better opinion would be that the working members of that body were possessed of too much sense and good judgment to pay any atten- tion to the idiotic demand.
 Governor Brady is a sincere believer in the principles of prohibition, and in full sympathy with proper and effective temperance work, but it was largely through his recommendations that the obnoxious prohibition law was repealed in this district. Any person informed concerning Alaska, geographically and otherwise, will not seriously demand the repeal of the present high license law and return to the fruitless, unen- forced and unenforcible prohibition law.
 That man Jackson is a "dudy" little fellow and probably not serious in pre- senting the resolution to the conven tion. He was, no doubt, desirous of standing in" with the women, and took that course to do so. Jackson better join Henderson and Hampton in a de, desire to let Alaska alone. We are not suffering for any of their assistance.

Mere for Business.

MT. J. E. Jaeger, the popular and wide awake laundryman of Juneau, is reaching out for more business, and his latest move is to appoint MT. Oscar Sternberg the Douglas Island agent, for the Alaska Steam Laundry. They have secured an office few doors below the hospital and Mir. Sternberg will devote his entire attention to looking after the laundry interests on this Island. We have personally known Mir. Stern berg for more than a year past, and he is young man of good business ability, honest and upright, and his word can be relied on under any and all circum- stances. It is needless to say that the work done by the Alaska Steam Laun- dry is of the very best. The truth of the matter is. you cannot get any better and nicer work done in any of the Sound cities than you get at this laun- dry. The way Mir. Jaeger is taking hold
 of this matter, means business, and he will do plenty of it on Douglas Island.

On the following Thurs day evening, however, will begin a se- ries of class lectures by Rev. Cole on "poetry, the language of the imagina- tion," which will probably be the most entertaining and instructive of any branch of work taken up by the society this season. MT. Cole is specially fit ted and qualified to take up this sub iect, and will handle it in a manner at once comprehensive and masterly, he having devoted many years of his busy life to study of the arts and sciences. This is an opportunity of a life time for all who are interested in the subject and the rules of the society will permit a large attendance during this time.
