STUPID DRAGGING AND CHEAP
ABUSE

In reply to the Daily 'Alaskan's con-
tention that few people Of Juneau are
endangsrlng the prestige CT that town
n a factor In Alaskan affairs by at
tempting to prevent the people OF the
district from getting the selt-govern'
ment they desire the tory organ down
there INDUCES In some stupid brsg-
ging about what a few Of its readers
have dons in the way Of developing
what IL admits to be only Y square
miles of territory and then turns Its at
tention TO cheap personal abuse OF the
editor Of this paper, whom it pretends
70 believe Is advocating homo rule for
Alaska for the purpose Of getting an
ONCE.
1t has been truthfully said there are
none so blind as those who will not see.
II might also be added that none are so
witless IS those whose ideas are direct
ed BY their own conceit- The handful
Of tories who assume TO speak for Ju-
nesu on all public matters cannot afford
70 run away with the idea that the only
people who are developing Alaska are
those Of their town who are selling mines
to English capitalists. There are other
sections Of Alaska where people have
developed greater producing resources
In q very short time than have been de-
veloped at Juneau. The Nome and
Fairbanks districts are each producing
several times more gold than is the Jul
neAu district, yet some Of the people Of
Juneau are the only ones IN the distric;
who are indifferent TO the question Of
seli-goyernment. Skagway is not the
only town whose citizens have time I:
be Americans. The demand for self
government is going up from all over
this district from the men and womer
who are developing il to che farther
most corner.
Nor can the question Of self-govern
ment for Alaska be downed by The
sneering insinuatiCn that it is support
ed by this man or that in order that h'
might get an Office. There are toC
many Americans in the district giving
their abilities and time to an effort u
secure the rights Of Americans To-
those residing in the north to sue
cessfully question their motives.

seidlitu Powders In Siam.

Sale Of seldlitz powders Is prohibited
In Siam. Some fifty years ago Phra
Mongkut, the then ruling emperor,
bought box of seidlltz powders from
q trader missionary, and, mlsinterpret-
ing the instructions on the lid, mixed
the six blue papered powders into one
tumbler Of water and the six white
papered ones into another. Then he
proceeded to swallow the resultant de-
coctons, one after the other. The re-
suit to the monarch may be imagined.
In consequence Of this the further sale
Of the remedy in question was prohibit
ed-a prohibition which still remains In
force.

TAKE VIEWS
Resort Committee Gets Pic
lures of Clark's Farm

Under the auspices Of the summer
resort committee Of the chamber OF
commerce Case & Draper have made
some excellent photographs OF q. D.
Clsrk's farm on the west side OF the
river. One of the pictures is OF the
potato field. Several rows of the pota-
toes were dug and the big white beau
ties fairly covered the ground. They
and the large and thrifty vines OF those
still growing made splendid showing
for the country. Some pictures were
also made of cucumbers and bears In
the large hot house. The result was
fully as asttering as that In the other
instance.
Probably no one In the district has
made so good record as = farmer IS
Mr.. Clark is making. he has raised
great quantities Of potatoes and other
vegetables and fruits this year. The
yield In everything has been far above
the average Of that in the agricultural
states Of the country.

Proof of Originality.

shat picture is an original Raphael.
Husband had heard so much about
counterfeit Raphaels that he not only
ordered this from an artist upon whom
he could depend, but he went so far as
to 60 to the studio every day while 1t
was being painted, so you can take my
word for It that this Is a real original

How a Servant Tried TO Sober Up u
Bibulous Diplomat.
The story had reference to former
senator OF the United States who was
sent to Russia as minister. There were
various evidences in the archives OF
the legation that sobriety was not this
gentleman's especial virtue and among
them very many copies OF notes in
which the minister, through the secre-
tary Of legation, excused himself from
keeping engagements at the foreign of
fice on the ground of sudden indlspo
sition."
Mr.. Prince told me that one day this
minister's valet, who was an Irish
man, came to the consulate and said
''Oi'll not stay with his igsillincy amy
longer. Owe done wild him."
whats the trouble nowT' said Mr..
Prince.

A tory paper down at Juneau thinks
because few Of its cronies are indiffer-
ens about the question Of home rule for
Alaska that sll the people Of the dis

like the peas who thought the whole

ANGEL A
BRIDE

New York, May IA happy culmina-
ton to a schoolday romance will be the
marriage Of Miss Ada Eliot, formerly New
York's ''Tombs Angel" 10 Mr.. +. +.
Sheffield, a professor in a Harvard Uni
versity preparatory school.
The wedding took place. yesterday in st.

Henry Ware Eliot. one OF the multi-mil-
lionaires of that city.
Miss Eliot and Mr.. Sheffield were stu
dents at Cambridge together, she attend
ing Radcliffe. the Harvard college for
girls. while he pursued his studies at the
university. After college hours the two
would take long strolls about the campus,
and IT Is believed that their troth was
plighted in those days.
When they left college, however. they
agreed 10 wait till ZACH had accomplished
something in the outside world before
marrying, especially as Miss Eliot was
particularly anxious to study still further.
For four years after leaving college Miss
Eliot was Dorchester agent OF the Assoc
ciated Charities OF Boston, after which
experience she came to New York and
took up the work OF probationary officer
i'm the Harlem court.
She served we'll in this capacity. and
then took a trip through Europe. visiting
London, Paris, Berlin, st. Petersburg.
Rome and Dublin, studying the European
system OF dealing with probationary wom-
en- prisoners.
She remained abroad for FIVE months.
and then returned and took up her posi-
ton as ToTbs Angel" I'm October Of 1907.
She held this position until last Novem-
Der, when she resigned and returned TO
Cambridge to resume her book studies.
The couple will live In Springfield, Mass.

ELOPERS
TOOK HORSE;
NOW JAIL

Greenwich, Conn, May 17.-Fair Mi
nerva and the warlike Julius are in jail.
after trying hard to get married. julius,
who name used TO be Jove in the olym-
plan days, is actually charged with the
plebian crime OF horse-stealing and the
fair Minerva is charged with trying hard
with trying 10 get married without her
parents consent when she was only 10
years old.
The Minerva is Minerva Willis, raised
on a farm down near Chenille cross
roads. julius is Julius Tetsloff. also
raised on a farm at the CROSSROADS, ana
Is years OF age
There was a slumbering love from way
back. but the pair did not know IT until
Miss Minerva's father told her Sunday
that he was packing up 10 move TO south
Norwalk. She told julius. He had noth-
ing to sugge but an elopement such as
he read about.
Minerva was willing. but they had no
means. julius admitted he had only Il
few pennies ana thar II would be down.
right mean to leave dad in blowing time,
but love overcame all scrpples ana they
started TO walk.
Night fell and found the pair tired and
hungry. Miss Minerva found a couch in
the haystack OF Farmer Sutro's place.
and julius sat awake 10 guard his god
dess.
When morning broke he had an idea.
Farmer Sutro had a horse that could be
enlisted in this cause of love. There
was a wagon handy, too, and before the
cocks were growing. Minerva and Julius
set out behind the PAGER. They drove
TO New Rochelle and then 10 White
Plains, trying to find a free parson, but
all the parsons were busy.
At dusk julius hitched his horse 10
a post in Main street and went 10 buy
some cheese and crackers. He was gone
a long time, so. long. in fact. that the
fair Minerva believed he was untrue, and
she unhitched the horse and started driv-
ing back home. She got as far as Green
wich, where the sheriff recognized SUI
tro's roam mare. and arrested her for
horse-stealing. and she was thrust in
Jail.
Meantime the sad Julius had become
lost and found himself again. He decided
tha the fair Minerva was untrue and
started TO walk back home. He got 10
Greenwich this morning TO hear that
his goddess had been arrested as a horse
thief. Chivalvous 10 the end, Julius went
TO the jail and asked the sheriff TO let
him join his Minerva. The accommo-'
dating sheriff locked him up.
