MUST NOT WAIT.

Commenting on he result of the re- cent eecti n the Juneau Dispatch says:
 Four years will work m my wonders in the political world, and in the mean time Alaska will settle back into her old position of waiting, hoping that the victorious party may cast aside d few crumbs of wise legislation that will fall to Aaska's share, that she may secure wise and enerous legislation. It is extre mely doubtful if the terri ,orial rm of government bill will be presented at this n xt ses,icn. but we all look for some go q health 'ul lcgls islatiOn at the hands of the session of congress following
 Alaska must not settle back or wait. Our peop.e must push forward and ask, entreat and den and those things We want It is probably true that the short session of congress will grant suf- fcient time to Alaska affairs to con slider bill for a territorial form of government. But it should be asked to do so. The Skagway and Juneau chambers of commerce and the city councils of the three southeastern Alaskan cities should all pass memorials on the subject which should be printed and sent to each senator and repre- sentative in congress.
 Failing in securing the desi"et legis' lation this winter, there should be a territorial convention next year at which al Alaska should be requested to send legates. The convention should decide upon whether it is de- sired to form one or more territories, prepare the orgar ic act for territory or the territorie and send one or two delegates to e national capital u crowd the bills through congress

CoMMENDABLE PRECAUTIONS.

While there is little danger of small pox breaking out in Skagway, the city council has shown commendable zeal in the performance of duty by taking active precautionary steps to care for the epidemic in case it shouli make its appearance in the city. That White Horse has a case of smallpox adds little more danger if any than has existed for the months since it broke out in Dawson. The authorities at Dawson and at White Horse rave taken every possible precautiOn to prevent the disease frOr becoming epidemic. Care full watch is kept of incoming and out going people and of those living in affected places, and every suspect and every man whom it has en suspected has been exposed o the disease are in- stantly placed in detention. It is not at all probable that the disease will make its appearance in Skagway.
 But should case of smallpox de- velop in the city or should the symptoms be discovered in anyone, the city is , repared to meet the emergency. A pest house and detention camp have been prepared and active measures adopted to compel and induce vaccina- tion
 Everyone in the city should make it a point to comply with the city councils recommendation as to vaccination. Those who have not been recently vac- cnua'ed owe 1t to the public health not to postpone the operation. It Is duty one owes himself his family and tte cit, to use every endeavor to assist the counc in it's efforts to keep the dread disease out of Skagway. A smallpox scare at this time would demoralize bu iness and seriously effect the splendid prospects for the most pros- porous ear in the h.st ry of Skagway.
