FIX STREET
Cinders Will Be Put On.
 Broadway.

The city council last night provided for putting a coat of einders on Broad way. Superintendent J. P. Rogers, of the White Pass & Yukon, offered on behalf of the railroad company, to do- nate the cinders and to deliver them on the street free of cost to the city, pro vided the latter would supply the men to load and unload the cars
 The last bunch of bills, except one or two small ones, for tho work on the streets under the $500 appropriation, came in last night. The amount of the appropriation expended was sl35LlO, leaving a balance of sl42,90
 The council approved the work on the bridge across the Skagway river and allowed the sIOO appropriation to be paid the builders when the council shall have received a transfer of the bridge property to the city. This lat ter matter was left to the city attorney and the city clerk.
 Mayor McGrath and Councilmen Johnson, Kettles and Ronkendori, were present.

VOTE TODAY
All Is in Readiness for Bal
 lOting.

The city officials are all ready for the balloting. The work of preparing for the election fell on the hands of City Clerk McKean, who personally pre- pared the polling books, tally sheets, etc. Under his direction three booths were erected in the chamber of com merce rooms yesterday afternoon, where the balloting will take place.
 The estimates on the number of bal lots that will be cast run all the way from 300 to 400. The general opinion seems to be that the number will be about midway between those figures.
 The balloting will begin at 9 o'clock in the morning and will close at ! in the evening.
 The council filled the vacancy in the board of election caused by the resig- nation of Phil Abrahams by the ap- pointment of George B. Daniels as judge. Mir. Daniels, H. H. Draper and Cortes Ford will constitute the board of election judges. c. w. Ask and R. W. Taylor will be clerks of election.
 From present appearances there will be considerable heat developed during the day, but there seems no doubt in anybody's mind but that the Citizens ticket, headed by Dr. Keller, will win without difficulty and with large ma jority to spare.

reformation. Judge Dillon never ap- peared to better advantage, and bis blows brought forth grunts and winces, but no replies, from those whom he called tax dodgers. He claimed that the only candidate for office whom 1t had been fouud necessary to sue for his taxes, was on the sO-called Taxpayers ticket. ..-..-
 E. J. Shaw showed that the Moore Wharf Company had paid ALL ITS TAXES. His remarks were not ques- toned nor challenged, for the reason that Mir. Shaw had the receipts in his possession.
 J.P. Rogers showed that the White Pass & Yukon had not only paid the city of Skagway Ss74.5O in taxes this year, but that 1t had paid s9O6O to the federal government on its trackago in American territory.
 H. B. Le Fevre made neat speech, in the course of which he attributed the rheumatism with which he was suf- iering to overexercise in running after the candidates on the Taxpayers ticket trying to collect poll taxes. He said he had never been successful as to several of the most active of them. Mir Le Feyre closed by asking Mir. Keelar as to the whereabout of the records of the old city council, of which he was n member, especially those portions of the records bearing upon the fran chises that had been granted. The chairman made no reply.
 A. F. wildt made the closing address and the hit of the evening. Be eonsid- cred it better to entrust the affairs of the city in the hands of business men and those who had become officials of corporations on account of their abil- ity to handle the affairs of such cor porations rather than in the hands of men who made their living by skin ming" the strangers who landed in skagway of their money, and who turned them into the street, when they fell into the hands of the pawnbroker, who relieved them of their other valu- ables. "I have been employed in this so-called foreign corporation for four years" said Mir. wildt, "and have never been in any place where men were SO we'll or so kindly treated.n

MEETING WAS IA CITIZENS'
 LOVE FEAST
Great Gathering Called to Injure Citizens Ticket Proved Boomerang Every
 Charge Made Was Disproved

The so-called taxpayers mass meet ing last night, was veritable boone rang. Called for the purpose of making campaign thunder against the Citizens ticket, 1t has done as much toward in- surfing the victory of that ticket as any one incident that has occurred in the short campaign. It witnessed the en- tire collapse of the campaign of vilifca- tlon and misrepresentation. Before the meeting had adjourned the cheers and the friendship of the audience was so clearly with the Citizens ticket, that the supporters of the Taxpayers ticket admitted their defeat.
 Every charge that has beon made against the Citizens ticket or for the purpose of preiudiciug the people against 1t, was proven to be false, ana every claim made by the Daily Alas kan in its Sunday issue, was proven to be true.
 J. NJ. Tanner called the meeting to order and F. T. Keelar was chosen chairman. After a few remarks by Mir. Keelar, Mir. Tanner took the floor as an orator He delivered the same harangue that he has been working off on any one who would listen to him for the last four or five days. He dwelt on the claim that the railroad company had paid only s36.5O taxes on personal property, while he claimed that it owned personal property to the value of S4OO,OOO, He carefully avoided any mention of the real property taxes paid by the railroad company. When emu merating the amount of tax paid by the candidates on the Taxpayers tick ct, he was just as careful to avoid any mention of how much of it WIS ou.9er' sonal property.
 Judge wilcoxen discretly retrained from entering into the issues of the campaign, and made a Fourth Of July speech. He thought the election of the Citizens ticket would result in Canada winning the boundary dispute.
 John F. Dillon was called upon to fol- low Judge wilcoxen, and he went after the "Tax Dodgers" ticket, as he char acterized 1t, hammer and tongs. He called things by their names, and showed that the so-called reformers have need to include themselves in the

Mordaunt had need now to spare his purse, and confident in his native shrewd- ness he formed the resolution not to con- suit the physicians, but to proceed in his own way.
 Finding that the springs yielded several sorts of water, he bathed in the sort which was least foul and drank the sort which smelled least nauseous.
 He lived to curse his headstrong folly and to be operated on twice. Two oper- ations were far from correcting his error. but they were all he could pay for
