THE CHARGE A LIE

The White Horse Tribune publishes story that Arthur Copeland, well known in Skagway. is a defauter there tc the tune of $3ooo. To those of Us who knew Mir Copeland intimately and we'll while he resided in this city it is Impossible to believe that he has touched q dollar oi anyone'S money Perhaps he left town for day and did not properly bill his proposed depar- ture in advance, and the Tribune has jumped at the conclusion that he Ina, gone wrong.
 Mir. Copeland was the first president of the Skagway Chamber oi Com. merce. and manager of the Ross liz. gins Company, and during his residence here gained the confidence and esteem oi every citizen, and we have no he~i- tancy in branding this report a, an un warranted and slanderous lie.

A GOVERNMENTAL ERROR

The people oi the Klondike are very much disturbed because the govern rnent has seen fit to send all newspaper mail matter rom the United States to Dawson by the lower river route. a good deal oi which will reach the peo- ple to whom 1t is addressed about the time the ice comes in. The big com pany which has secured the mail fran chise had the necessary influence to capture the postal plum, and the post master general when he awarded the contract had no thought of the needs oi the iar-away Alaskan miner. Had ht spent a winter in the frozen North, and walked miles over the ice and stood shivering at a postoffice window waiting for his papers, perhaps for hours, he would have realized how irr- portant news is to isolated people. and woud have seen to it that newspapeis 5 were sent by the quickest possible route

EVERYTHING POSSIBLE HERE

Captain Healy's roseate views re- gently published in regard to the in- ture of Alaska are probably little il any overdrawn Our Northern ultima thule is already demonstrated to be veritable happy hunting ground ior commercial enterprise Mines, fisher ics. lumber-each of these sources ot wealth have proved vastly more o2u lent than was ever dreamed of by Mir Seward when. in 1867, he negotiated the purchase of the territory from Russia. Sc far Captain Healys predictions as to the growth oi the territory seem about to be realized But as to d rail ring straits, to connect with the Trans Siberian road il would seem that the consummation oi this gigantic enter price is remote indeed. When we coH- sidcr the accessibility oi all parts c. Alaska by sea. and the well-known economy of sea transportation over rail traffic, Captain Healy's dream seems somewhat chmerica But stranger things have happened, and a half century hence tourists who fear scasickness may start to Paris by rail via Skagway and Boring straits, says the Coast handsome little month ly published in Seattle
 Those who have lived any length of time in Alaska know that anything is possible here The building oi the White Pass & Yukon Route and the overcoming oi the obstacles that were met every inch oi the way, clearly demonstrates that railroad building in the district is easy of accomplishment when the necessary capital is available
 Alaska is no longer thought of as an iceberg fit only to be looked upon like any other piece of scenery in the summer. It now has dozens of cities and scores of settlements peopled with permanent residents, and every year more capital is finding its way into Alaska begging investment Railroads wherever operated are as good as gold mines, and it is not at all unlikely that the building of the proposed connection with the Trans Siberian road will be begun at an early date.

The Chamber of Commerce at last nights meeting adopted the suggestion offered by the Daily Alaskan, and has decided to extend an invitation to President Mckinley and the Rivers and Harbors Committee of the House oi Representatives to visit Stagway, and the prospects are favorable to tht acceptance of both offers of hospital ity The nations chief executive will be in Seattle in May, and il delega- toi is sent from Skagway to confer with the Queen City Chamber of Commerce in advance. the latter body will be able to materially assist the local organization in securing the pres, idents consent to make the journey. Seattle is largely dependent upon the Alaska trade for her sustenance, and she knows it. It will be her pleasure to help us in every way possible, and here is her chance.
 Should the Rivers and Harbor Com mittee take revenue cutter and come up through the inland sea its members would have a thorough understanding oi our needs regarding lighthouse buoys, etc Once in Skagway they could be intelligently educated regard ins .Alaska's general needs, and upon II l..

News comes from Dawson concern, ing a recent bloody fight between part ners about a cabin It is strange how many people double up together in Alaska full of hope in the spring, and before the thaw arrives again quarrel over some trivial matter, separate and ever afterward are enemies. The only explanation offered is that isolated people become tired of looking at each others features and endeavor to vary them by fstic ornamentation.

floor are several samples of what man
is like when stripped of his adipose
tissue and all superficial covering of

window are various kinds of liquid and
polsons with placards containing ap-
propriate labels. In the center of the
deadly drugs are the common weapons
of defense and offense, a knife and
pistol with the caution that there is
no antidote for these" A bottle of
