FEDERAL ATTORNEY
For the Northern District of In
dian Territory to Serve Dur
ing the Next -Four Years.
Appointment was not Ex-
pected for Several Weeks.

President Mckinley yesterday
announced the re-appointment for
a term of four years OF Hon.
Pliny L. Soper, federal attorney
for the northern district of Indian
Territory.
The announcement came as a
welcome surprise, not that Mr..
Soper and his friends did not con-
fidently expect that his services
would be rewarded by re-appolnt-
ment, but they did not expect the
announcement to be made for sew
eral weeks.
The gentleman was endorsed by
ninety-nine of every hundred
republicans in the district in
addition to which he had the en-
dorsement OF the law and order
element of property owners and
buslnesS men.
His task in this district mas
been a difficult one, but right we'll
has he acquitted himself. Mr.
SOBER has been surrounded by a
corps OF able deputies who have,
in a great measure, enabled him
to make the enviable reputation
he now enjoys as a prosecutor and
federal officer. He has been fear
less in the discharge of duties and
while The Chieftain has not al
,ways been free from doubt as TO
his official wisdom IN certain mat
ters we realize that no man IN hl'
position can do his fall duty a
he sees it and please everybody
Col. Soper's early aPpoIntmen

The Alaska Mail s. S. Co.

Mir. H. Stuart Brinley, representing the Alaska Mail s. s. Co.,, was in town last week, interviewing our merchants in regard to the freight business. MT. Brinley makes the following statement of the plans of his company: It is the desire of the promoters of this com pany to build up transportation busi- ness and operate it on lines that will serve the best interests of the people of Alaska, and promote the develop ment of the vast resources of that sec- tion. Should the contracts for freight indicate willingness of the business men of Alaska to support competitive company, it is our intention to at once provide one or more steamers by char ter for handling present business and to commence the construction of at least one steamship with the finest pas senger accommodations and capable of developing a speed of twenty knots and making it possible to make the trip from Seattle to Skagway ln two days. Should the passenger service warrant, two such steamships will be provided as fast as they can be built. Other and slower steamers for handling slow freight will be provided as fast as the business develops for the same
 The promoters of this company, Mir. Richard P. Camden and Mir. J. w. Kel- ley, are capitalists of West Virginia and men of large experience in financial affairs. These gentlemen are now ready to provide the necessary vessels if the business men of Alaska offer them suf- hcient inducement.
 It is also desired where practicable to own our own wharves and reduce or abolish the exorbitant charges for wharfage now being exacted.

Incorporation and schools

The proposed incorporation of the townof Douglas has been hanging fire for the past two months, and some of our citizens are becoming impatient, and justly so, too. AS the matter stands now, our schools are entirely inadequate to the demands placed up on them. And the only hope is through incorporation. The idea has gained lodgment in the minds of some that we may expect better schools at the hands of the U. S. Department, of Edu- cation as soon as the tax money from Alaska, outside of incorporated towns, is covered into the U. S Treasury. We believe this to be a mistake. The num- Der of new schools that are now being organized in Alaska will absorb any surplus that may fall into the hands of the department.
 We now have 90 pupils crowded into two small rooms, and there is no doubt that the over crowded condition is re- sponsible for much of the sickness that exists among the children. It has got 50 be a matter of self protection with lFs now.

Dr. Irwin Breaches.

Last Sunday evening the Rev. Dr. Irwin occupied the pulpit at the Con gregational church in this city. He took his text from John Al, "Let not your heart be troubled; ye believe in God, believe also in me. He said:
 "When Christ came among men, he came to religious people, who had been trained through long years to be lieve in one God. They were pure monotheistic people. Whenever they turned aside to idolatry the chastise- ment that came upon them was very severe. So, when Christ came, he found a people who were educated to believe in stoning any person who dared to make himself out to be God. It was the purpose of Christ to get them to believe in him, without at the same time disturbing their faith in God. For this reason, he did many mighty works among them. The question that confronts mankind is the necessity of believing in Christ. A belief in Christ is the only mode of getting knowl- edge of the Divine moral attributes. Nature tells us of God as the Creator, but this is simply the God of wisdom and power. There is no moral element in sun and stars and natural mechan- isms. Only through moral character could God reveal his moral qualities. Faith in Christ is the only means of knowing anything of Divine mercy and means of spiritual help to men. He is the revelation and measurement of Gods love-
 '.Faith in Christ is the only means of obtaining correct idea of life No man on earth could say, as he said. fol Low me: Faith in Christ brings us the clearest and most satisfactory convic. ton of life in the hereafter. sLn my Fathers house are many mansions ! go to prepare place for you and l will receive you unto myseIf-' He alone has been able to draw aside the curtain and give us any view of eternity"

A KiIlisnoo Letter.
Oct. 2Sth, 1901.

The fishing season is about over for this year. The boats bring in very few fish, but the men can't get away until the Topeka comes again, so they go out every day and do the best they can. After the first of November, with the factory closed, and the white men gone, then the place will be very quiet for six months again.
 Father Saboleff has gone to Sitka to fill the pulpit in the Greek Catholic Church, until the Priest returns from Russia, where he went some three months ago to visit his home.
 Last week two Government Survey boats and the Revenue Cutter Lucy, with Governor Brady and Dr. Sheldon Jackson on board, called at Killisnoo The Governor and Dr. Jackson came over to Angoon. and we had a very pleasant call from them. Dr. Jackson is going from village to village among the Indians, looking after the schools and aseertaining where new schools are needed. Ilearned from him that the government would rebuild the school house which was burned down here a

few years ago, and establish school again.
 Wednesday, of this week, Rev. Dr. Young, Rev. Mir. Condit and Rev. MT. Jones of Juneau, spent the day and night at Killisnoo.
 They held services in the evening. They came from Juneau in Mr. Jones' boat, and were on their way to Hoonah Village Dr. Young who recently re- turned from Nome is looking after the missionary needs of the Indians. My husband and were very much pleased to receive call from them at Angoon. they took dinner with us Thursday, 24th, and then hastened on their way to Hoonah, as they wanted to reach there Saturday night.
 The same afternoon the Flosie came in. bringing Mir. Vim and MT. Des- rocher, from Juneau. They wanted to % up to MT. McCloskey's coal mine, so hired two Indians with their canoe to take them up; the Indians started all right,and brought them around into the Lagoon, and landed them on the beach, and refused to go any further; they took the traps, belonging to the two gentlemen, out of the canoe and put them on the beach, got into the canoe, and padded off and left them. It was then nearly dark; and being strangers in strange country, sur rounded by water, and as far as they knew, no white men nearer than Killis- moo, three miles across the water. But they saw a path that led across the small patch of ground that divides the Lagoon from Angoon, and following it they arrived at Angoon. And as they looked out,t toward Killisnoo they saw white man coming in skiff; they came direct to the "shack" in which we live, and were happily surprised to find white family in the village. They told us their trouble, and my husband told them to wait until the tide turned, so be could cross the rapids with safety, and he would take them up. Tide and time waits for no man, but man has to wait for the tide in this part of Alaska. There are three different rapids to cross between here and McCloskey's place, and they are very dangerous unless crossed at the proper time. They had supper with us while waiting, and then went on their way rejoicing, and thank ing their stars that they did not have to camp out all night in an Indian village. It was pleasant moonlight night and they were only three hours going.
 Mir. Desrocher is coal expert, so l am told.
 Men have begun to sink shaft on our coal property, and they expect by the first of January to know what we have there.
 The cannery at Sitco Bay has closed. They only put up 60,000 cases this sea son, and could have put mp nearly double that, if their machines had worked right, and they had not run out of cans. Another year they expect to remedy all this.

CANCER

Sufferers from this horrible malady
nearly always inherit it-not necessarily
from the parents, but may be from some
remote ancestor, for Cancer often runs
through several generations. This deadly
poison may lay dormant in the blood for
years, or until you reach middle life, then
the first little sore or ulcer makes its APP
pearance - or a swollen gland in the
breast, or some other part of the body,
gives the first warning.
To cure Cancer thoroughly and perma-
uently all the poisonous virus must be
eliminated from the blood-every vestage
