would say; or, "Hiram Baxter never
held his head up sence Tom Niles was
mixed up in that bank robbery"
When Mrs. Baxter, Toms mother,
came to deaths door after six years of
uncomplaining disappointment, pinch
ing poverty and unspoken yearning for
her absent son, the women said that it
was Toms disgrace and desertion that
had brought her gray hairs in sorrow
to the grave. Nobody knew just what
she really thought of Toms treatment
of herself. They knew that she would
not telorate abuse of him, and so his
name was never mentioned in her pres
ence. If she regretted having given
the boy stepfather almost as young
as himself, she never said SO. If she
yet believed that under better condi-
tlons Tom might have grown into good
ly manhood, she made no sign. 1t was
too late. The boy had run away, first,
to escape the holier- than-thou tyranny
of his model stepfather, and second, to
get away from the warrant which
charged him with complisity in rob-
bing the village bank. In the old days,
just after the wedding, his mother had
sided with Mr. Baxter against Tom,
and then
But it doesn't matter what she might
have done If Tom came back, for he
didn't come back. Mrs Baxter died.

Resolutions.

DOUGLAS CITY, ALASKA, APRIL F, 1902.
 WHEREAS, The attention of Congress has been directed to Alaska by the agi- tation of the question of Territorial form of government for this District;
 AND WHEREAS, It is believed that such a step would be unwise at this time for the reasons that the industries of AL aska are yet in their infancy, and on them would fall the burden of the taxes necessary to sustain such gov ernment, at time when they need en- couragement and support, rather than taxation, therefore,
 BE IT RESOLVED, By the Board of Councilmen of Douglas City, Alaska,
 1st. That we heartily endorse the bill introduced by Congressman Cushman asking for a delegate to congress to represent Alaska.
 2d. That we are opposed to the en- actment of any law, at this time, giving Alaska a Territorial form of govern ment, as premature and inimical to the best interests of the District.
 Sd. That copy of these resolutions duly authenticated, be sent to the chairmen of the committees of Terri tories of the Senate and the House of Representatives of the United States, to Congressman Cushman, to the news papers of Alaska, and theSeattle news papers.
 Approved this 18th day of April, A. D. 1902. CRAs. A. HoPP, Mayor.

Mexican Starts Up.

The big hoist at the Mexican mine has been rebuilt, the damage to the mill repaired, and yesterday the big mill started up again after laying idle only little over two months.
 Fire was discovered in the Mexican hoist on the evening of February 1ith, and within few hours and in spite of the heroic efforts of the men led by the Superintendent, it was burned to the ground and the mill badly scorched.
 Before the ruins had quit smoking a force of men was at work clearing away the debris and taking measure ments for a new building. Assistant Supt. Kenzie hurried to Seattle, placed an order for the large timbers necessa- " and repairs for the machinery.
 Indictment weather delayed the work somewhat, but it was pushed with all possible haste, so that within the brief time mentioned it was completed, and yesterday morning the 120 stamps were grinding away.
