No False Boon5s Wanted

An over enthusiastic and under priBcipled individual said the other day, we must get the people to SkAgWsy. This is bis ides of build ing up a town, and is the peoples generally. SkAgway has had people here before and they advertised the place in a thorough manner, too. Those of us who stayed here sui tered from the reaction, and now any attempt to bring people aimlsssly to AlaskA is a foolish one. Hold out no dishonest inducements to the public, or they will be regretted in time. Publish as near the facts as possible, but avoid any items that will excite as to the mineral pros poets. A bunco game in business is more despicsble than the one in games, for the latter Is expected. Any news sheet that persists in care less publications IS not deserving of public suPPort.-Skagwsy, Alaska Nugget.

Rodgers and and Clinton D. wiagh6ld and dis mounted. Ona of them held both horses while the thher went around 10 the front of the store where
 Rodgers and Wink6eld and Captain John Boyd were esated on he porch. The stranger took 6 seat on the porch and converted with the men for about 6fteen or twenty minutes Wh, hs suddeaiy sroRe and drew . siK-shooter. and with An obscene epithet commaAdsd al of them to throw up their bands or run. Wing 6eld and Rodgers started to go in- side of the stoFe, but before they reached the door Rodgers was shot through the body, the bullet passing just underneath Lhe shoulder blade and be fell Co ths floor s corpse. Another bullet from the strangers pistol struck Wing6eld in the back also and lodged some place in his body and he also fall to the floor sut lived until between 2 and 3 o'clock this morning when be died. The stranger then turned his Atten. ton to CaptSin Boyd and sent bull let through his thigh, causing . very painful, though not dangerous fssh wound. About this time the man with the horses came around from the corral whsn both of thsmzsant- ed and rods o6 tn the di9xisa of Toata nazin- Thsir ohiece Nsea egi- denily rabhsxy but being aAs<al ths busssszthey did not aznn Co understzme Asw to so AhOs6 sa suc- SaszfEallys aa4 after conszz1iag most atrOcionS murder thsy 8ode od without hAEiAg accomplished their purpose.
 A son of Geo. W. Hsnes was st once dispatched Co Prescott to notify the officers. He arrived here this morning about : o'clock aud the sheriff and oae deputy Immediately lefs for the sceus Of the t.aRed, where s posse will ts organized for the pursuit.
 Indian trailers under the com u-aud of dalermiosd mea were start ed on the trail of the mnrassess this morning and the sbsEfG and hIs party probably got asay from there shortly after Bocn.
 The douhlemurder Wns one of the most alEociOaA and cold hlooded that has eses been oommiiAad inAAs county for some tskoe. b0thUf the victims were well known in the county and two more popular men would be hard to find, as neither of them was known to have An enemy in the county. They had both re- sided in this county for a number of years. Mir Wing6eld's parents and brothers and sisters reside rear Camp Verde. They purchased the merchandise store of W. s. Head . year oc more ago Gnd did . very large business, and being so remote from ali banking facilities they hsd the reputation of having a consider able Amount of funds on hand all the time and more particularly ct the beginning of the mouth.
 While officials are very reticent in regard to the affair it is believed that they have a pretty good clue to the identity of the murderers, sl- though they seemed to be strangers in the Verde valley.
