Council Meeting.

The city council met last Monday evening. The committee on streets and public property reported rapid progress on the St. Ann road. School Director John Stoft was present and, in behalf of the school board, presented an itemized estimate of the funds necessary for the school the coming year and asked the council to make the necessary appropriations. The question of the heating apparatus in the school house was the principal bone of contention; whether it is better to repair the old plant or put in new one. After an extended dis cussion the matter was referred to the committee on streets and public pro- perty. This committee was instructed to thoroughly. investigate the matter, and report at the next meeting.
 The petition of property owners on Front street was taken up-praying for the planking of said street-and a notice was ordered published, designating a time at which protests against such improvement, might be made to the council.

A Bit of History.

Early in the good old summer time two youths arrived in the city of Ju neau, the band did not meet them playing, "The CampbeIl's are Coming" They were not announced by flourish of trumpet and roll of drum. They were unheralded and came like thieves in the night. Little did the unsuspect- ing people of Southeastern Alaska know what was to happen.
 The Fourth of July came, as it all ways does, and when the roll of play CTS of the Juneau base ball team was called, two new names were written there in bold letters. When the un- suspecting youths of the windy city of Skagway stepped to their place in the batter's box, new man was before them with the horsehide sphere grasp ed tightly in his hand, and a new face was encased in the catchers cage. 'Tis true Juneau was defeated, but they died fighting.
 Douglas was defeated by these strangers and not allowed to get run, and then seemingly Juneau was satis- fled, for the Campbell Bros. disappear ed, melted away like the snow before the summers sun, vamoosed, mushed, went to seek pastures new. Very few knew from where they came or where they went, but they were among us and that is painful fact to Douglas at least.

Why not dig out tiose stumps, roll them in piles and burn them up, and the danger from fire would be Iessened by one half.

Tohn NayIor Bean.

DIED-At Douglas, Alaska, Saturday, August 9th, 1904, John Naylor Beau, aged 39 years, of appendicitis.
 When at an early hour Saturday inorning the word was passed from lip to lip, ,"John Bean is dead," very few could grasp the meaning of the word without a shudder. Death in all of its forms is terrible to contemplate, but when young man is cut down in his strength the work of the grim monster IS brought home to everyone with a double meaning.
 John Naylor Bean was born at Chester, I'll. He came to Douglas several years ago and engaged in busi- ness. He made friends with everyone, and we don't think the man lives who could say that JohnBean was his enemy. With pleasant word and as mile for all, he went about his daily avocation with that boundless hope that youth and strength inspires.
 On Sunday afternoon the funeral services were held at the Elk's hall in Juneau, of which organization the de- ceased was life member. The beauti, fuI ceremony of the B. P. o. D. was used. The hall was many times to small to accomodate the vast con- course of people who gathered to pay their last respects to the departed. The lodges of Elks, Eagles and Red Men attended in a body. The inter- ment was at EIk's Rest, Evergreen cem- etery.

secured through the emigration
schemes which arc already being en-
couraged in many sections of the
South. This properly carried out will
in great measure, relieve the negro
question.
Farming is today not any more d
matter of choice. 1t is a science.
There is vast difference, of course,
in commercial farming, with the aid
of chemicals and improved machinery
over the old summer farming Of our
ancestors. Try the same soil by the
old and new methods and you will be
surprised at the results. 1t is a sad
commentary upon most Southern far
mers that they only scratch the dirt
a little, list off, put the seed in the
ground and trust to God to do the
rest. II nature were not so generous
here it would be a pity to see how
people would almost starve to death.
This emigration scheme will bring
a class of farmers into ou" midst, who,
in the first place, are not cotton rails
ers, but instead, have given their
attention to diversified farming. From
a variety of crops they would supply
our home demand with the best of
food stuffs, and over and above this,
raise ten times more in value on the
same number OF acres than we harvest
at present with our cotton and corn
farming. 1t would not cost the South
ern people any money to get this class
Of farmers here, and their work would
OF course raise the value of all prop
critics, bring more wealth and cause a
greater circulation OF money. 1t is in
your hand, gentlemen, to advance
your property in value. Support the
work for emigration. Although not
born in this country, yet l rejoice in
its growth and love it more than my
native home, under the rotten govern
ments OF the Monarchs of Europe.
Respectfully,

Owing to the fact that the edition
has been exhausted, very few of the
legislators have been provided with
copies Of the annotated code at this
session, says the Clarion Ledger, and
the lack of this volume on the legisla.
tive desks is one of the strong argum-
ents why new codifcation of the laws
should be provided for before adjourn
ment. It is stated that about one
half of the justices of the peace who
went into office a few days since have
been unable to to secure copies of the
code, their predecessors refusing to
sell their volumes, and many of them
are therefore compelled to either bor-
row copies or guess at the law when
points come before them for decision.

The great packing concerns of Swift,
Armour, Nelson, Morris and others
have purchased 100000 acres of land
in Southern Alabama and Northern
Florida from the Louisville s. Nash
vile Railroad. These lands will be
used by the great Chicago packers in
fattening cattle for their concerns. It
is claimed that cassava grows in abun-
dance on this land, and upon this fact
hinged this great land deal. Cassava
is shrubby plant, has a feshy root
and produces edible starch and is said
to be the greatest fattening agent for
cattle yet discovered. The Chicago
packers have agreed with the Alaba-
ma agricultural commission to plant
the 100000 acres in cassava and
feed cattle on it.

manner, entered into an eloquent and
lengthy discussion OF confronting State
issues and questions of his own per-

to the late campaign, he sensiby says:
Whatever bitterness or acrimony
the recent campaign may have engen-
dered, the wounds inflicted in the
contest for the place, the disappoint-

join hands, united in heart and mind,
and present a solid front, as we march
forward to meet the grave RESPONSE

short to be taken up in remembering
or brooding over disagreeable things.
