Douglas Island news., 1902-11-19
Our Birthday.

With this issue the Douglas Island News starts in on Volume 5. For four years the News has been identified with the growth of Douglas, and has en- deavored to uphold the best interests of the town, not always right, perhaps, in it's policy, yet if wrong, honestly SO. No man is infallible. And whether right or wrong, we have had the un- divided support and good will of all.
 Our past experience has taught us that the advice of our friends is in dispensable and necessary to success and that advise has been given us un- stintedly.
 Since the advent of the News, Doug las has gone forward with long leaps, until she now stands among the fore most cities of the District. We have not the presumption to attribute all this to the influence of the News, but we do say, and without fear of contra diction that the News has been the in- strument through which much good has been accomplished. We take this opportunity to thank the people ofthis community for their kindness to us in every way, and we pledge for the future as we have given in the past, our best efforts.
 While the present editor owns the type, the printing presses, &c., of the office, the News is not a one-man paper. It belongs to the people of Douglas Is- land. It is here to reflect their views, and when it fails to do that, the great est or the humblest citizen may have space in it's columns to offer correc- tion

which had better not be stirred, even by his friends, for it smells to high heaven. The 12S citizens of the town of Juneau, Alaska, have had taste of this Douglas commissioner business, and we think in all fairnessthey should break away and mind their own busi- ness, and let the affairs of Douglas Is- land alone, and the people of Douglas will forgive them the harsh words they have used. Otherwise, it will be ap- parent that an insult was intended.

He do 1t.

The question that is now agitating the minds of many Alaskans is, "What will Congress do?" From the press dispatches it is learned that President Roosevelt has been reminded of the existence of this portion of U. s. ter ritory which has so long been forgotten and that his message to Congress will at least mention the fact that Alaskans are entitled to some recognition. But the general feeling is fear that after such a long period of neglect, Congress will give us more legislation than we really want. That is, rather overdo the matter. Every time in the past that the legislators of the nation have de- voted any of their valuable time to matters pertaining to Alaska, they have given the patient an overdose. And so with great deal of anxiety Alaskans are ruminating on the question, what will Congress do?

I2S Citizens.
tion.

12S citizens of the town of Juneau, Alaska, have signed their names to protest to Hon. M. C.. Brown, express ing their indignation at the attempt on the part of the citizens of Douglas to secure resident commissioner.
 12S citizens of Juneau have made blunder and have got their foot in it.
 So far as Mir. Irwin is concerned, they have a perfect right to sing his praises from the rising of the sun to the going down of the same, extolling his char acter as citizen, and recognizing his services to his country and the town of Junead. But when it comes to the man called Judge Irwin, U. S. Commissioners at Douglas, different state of affairs exists.
 The 12S citizens of Juneau who have certified to Judge Brown as to the eftic- iency of Commissioner Irwin as pub lie officer, have overshot the mark. They are talking about something be- yond their range of observation, also matter which has been called to the at tention of Judge Brown before, and on which he has rendered his opinion, which opinion was not in harmony with the views of the 12S citizens of the town of Juneau, Alaska.
 If it was the intent and purpose of the 12S citizens of the town of Juneau, to give Commissioner Irwin credit for bis grey hairs, and the position which he holds socially by reason of his good behavior. they are little late in the day, for when the official acts of Com missioner Irwin were being investigated and the evidence submitted, his own admissions showed that he had made grieyous errors. Judge Brown looked at those grey hairs, and perhaps his eye caught the glint of the G. A. R. button, and he let him down easy, although possessed of information that would have caused him to severely rebuke a younger man.
 The point in the case which the 128 citizens of the town of Juneau should get right on, is that as far as MT. Rev. Dr. Irwin, citizen of the town of Ju- neau is concerned, the people of Doug las have nothing but good words and good wishes. Perhaps of course he is not appreciated here as much as in his own home town, where he is surrounded by the loving influence of the 12S citi- zens, and so with feeling of sadness the people of Douglas Island are ready to part with the man and citizen, for his own good. No malice, no envy, no hatred-just take him back home, as good as when he first came to the Is- land, and having accumulated enough of Douglas Islands filthy gold to build for himself fine home in the town of Juneau. take him back.
 AS for Judge Irwin the official, we don't want him either, and if the i2s citizens of Juneau, Alaska, have any nice little offices that they want filled, we can recommend to them Judge IT, win, the official. His efficiency as an officer, his capacity, &c., is matter

OCTOBER CLEARINGS.


BradStreetS SAYS.
While October clearings showed a heavy gain
September, totals were by far the largest ever
reported in the tenth month of the year, and every
group of cities shows gains last and pre-
ceding years. IL hardly be said that the ten
dency 10 increase is a general one because Of the
fact that nearly one-ifth of all the cities OF the
United States shows decreases of larger or smaller
amounts from October 1901 In most cases II is true
that the decreases are shown by the smaller cities;
and some few directly traCeable 70 the coal
strike but large cities like Detroit; savannah
Denver, Salt Lake City and St. Joseph, show de-
CIines which indicate smaller volume of business
passing through the banks than a year ago, what
ever the facts may be as TO the amount OF actual
trade done. Taking the figures as whole, how
the tendency is still 70 increase, partly be
of the large gains at New York, but also be-
in the country, outside or the metropolis
gains still heavy. Predictions that 1902 would
exceed 1901 ceerings borne out by the further
cutting down of last years lead, and II would
likely that the increase of less than 1Oe0,ON0-
600 now shown by 1901 the present year will
disappear during the present month leaving De-
cember furnish whatever increase the present
year a whole will show over 1901

IRON AND STEEL.

The Iron Age says:
Conditions in the iron industry have not changed
materially during the last week and II Is yet 100
early TO measure effect of the elections. which
dlspel all fears of any radical experiments. Inc
iron trade will therefore turn again TO the study
of the question whether present prices have or may
curtail consumption. One point in connection Win
this should be emphasized more than II IS. ana
that is that yet the greatest tonnage OF toudry
iron which is being melted is at comparatively
low prices that good of steel which is being
rolled is under sliding scale contracts costing mucn
less than market prices. and that in the heavier
rolled products the official prices apply, which
much lower than those which buyers must pay
in the open market for prompt shipments Ind1ca-
lions that work is being delayed on account OF
unduly high prices. which do crop up now and
then must therefore not be regarded too ssnih-
