SKAGwAY'S INTEREST

The people of Skagwsy have little interest in the coming election for a delegate in congress beyond the cleo tion of a man who will stand for self government, who will truly represent the people who live here and who will eadeavor to secure 8 plan of govern meut that will mean government from within instead of from without. Sksg- wayaus, like all true Alaskans from all sections of the district, are tired of hay ing things.managed by others than bona fle residents. They ask that things be changed so that the mining laws, the revenue and taxation laws and all the other laws of the district may be made by miners, proSpectors, business men. laboring men and others who are devoting their time, brain and ener- gy to the development of Alaska, and who actually live in the district. The name of the delegate, his politics and his place of residence are unimportant, but the question of home rule lies at the very root of American government.
 In short, principles not men concern Skagway citizens, and they only ask tha. the delegate from Alaska be man who will be true to American prin- cfples and faithful to his trust.

what bashful. In caguas he was. bet
ter, IN Cayey still more fluent and
sure of himself, and in Ponce, after
the several rehearsals, he must have
surprised those who have believed
that Mr.. Post was not a ready and
fluent speaker.
After some further practice and
preparation, and we might state here
that some OF his travelling was done
on the railroad, 4 circumstance which
no doubt relieved him of any anxiety
regarding the condition Of the public
roads.
Mr.. Post in some instances journe-
yed over thoroughfares not under the
control Of the Department of the
Interior. And, then, calmed by this
knowledge, the illustriouS voyager
could think with an untroubled mind
Of the attitude he would assume, of
the tones he would adopt and the
words ne would employ, and perhaps,
thinking OF the oratorical triumph.
awaiting him, the Demosthenes of
redemptionism gazed from the win
dow Of the train on the beauties of
the passing landscape and gathered
inspiration from the waving fields Of
cane and the graceful gestures of
the stately palms.
Those who have not stopped to
think of the value Of practise and
preparation, might believe that e1o-
quence was one Of the inhe-
rent gifts OF the great retention
lst. Perhaps they have not appre-
ciated his wisdom in beginning his
trip at Humacao and finishing it at
San Juan.
That the itinerary ofMr. Post was
happily arranged is now very evident,
be has carried out his pragram to the
letter, without there being any of tho
Sc incidents recorded which the con
dition of the roads and the uncerta-
inty of the weather caused some to
fear.
The victor has returned. Neither
the roads could delay him nor the
fury Of the tempests retard his tri-
umphant progress.
This time, fate has not been I'M
kind and cruel to the .illustrious con-
gregante, no evil shadow has cast
over him its nalign influence.

EDITORIAL

From the fact that the Honorable
Mr.. Post addressed the Executive
Council on Monday, our readers may
infer that he suffered none Of the
misfortunes which were feared, on
his mission Of instruction to the elec-
tion officials.
The trip was placid, serene and
the itinerary carried out according
to schedule.
Neither the rains nor the state Of
the roads impeded the progress Of
the eminent redemptionist
He has talked with the inpectors,
Judges and secretaries Of election,
rea ching them sometimes in an au-
tomobile and at others on horseback,
according to the facilities offered by
ths highways.
And those modest election officials
have heard the same explanation,
similar recommendations, in short, the
identical discourse delivered by the
grand beadle ofelections in the Exec
utive Council on Monday
Possibly this explains the unusual
f1uency Of speech noted in the addr-
ess of Mr.. Post on the above occasion;
he had moments of real eloquence
and we confess to being surprised
at a precision and conciseneSs Of
language heretofore unknown with
this official taumaturgist.
Thus, the apparent progress and
growth Of the novel parliamentarian
is readily explained. The same disc
curse heard here on Monday, the
same recommendations made to min
or officials, similar explanations reg
arding the proper Interpretation to be
given to the electoral law, in fact
everything that on Monday appeared
as spontaneous burst of eleoquence,
he had been repeating in the rural
alcaldias on his recent excursion.
Each day we are becoming more
firmly convinced of the cleverness
and dexterity of this undesirable
functionary.
The trip of instruction began with
the tewns.
There he was able to experiment
with the discourse which on Monday
he delivered in San Juan.
In Humacao, he appeared some
