Alaskans Turned Down.

It is great disappointment to the people of Alaska that MT. Thos. Lyons, of Juneau, was not ap- pointed U. s. Attorney for South eastern Alaska. Mir. Lyons was endorsed by nearly all the promi- inent attorneys of Southern and Southeastern Alaska. and by many business and professional men, and it was hoped that since President Roosevelt has taken such an active interest in Alaska, that he would call halt on appointing any more carpet baggers for Alaska and ap- point to office in Alaska, residents of Alaska men who know some- thing of the conditions as they exist here, and could easily serve the people of the district and the gov ernment much more satisfactorily than strangers who merely seek the office for what there is in it. It seems impossible to have Alaskans appointed to office, except semi occasionally, some resident of the district is appointed to some tenas deputyship without any salary.

In Perfect Accord.

Some years ago there came to an
American city a delightful German,
Herr Won Biitz. who intended to sup
port himself by giving lessons in his
native tongue. When he had been here
several months and had secured a mod
crate number of pupils, he went one
day to the mother of one of them and
TO her great surprise asked for her
daughters hand in marriage.
"But, my dear SIR said she, my
daughter has no fortune"
The sutton smiled upon her in an ex-
pansive generosity.
ME, toov' said he reassuringly.
"And, although we are not rich, we
have thus far been able to give her
every comfort. She is indeed used to
luxury"
Me, tool" was the smiling rejoinder.
But, Herr Won Blitz, she will never
be able to manage affairs"
"Me, tooi'' rejoiced the lover.
"And | feel obliged to tell you that
my daughter has very high temper"
