.SKAGWAY IS FOR SWINfFORD
Citizens of this city sign monster petition requesting
 former governor to become candidate for delegate to congress His candidacy best represents people of

him a candidate and he has half promis' ed that he will obey a call from the people to become such, there Is some. thing certain and tangible. By sup porting him the people will surely save themselves from the chaos that seems to obtain in other quarters, aud they will save themselves the danger from being made the sport of pohUicaus and place hunters.
 Skagway has DO selfish interest to serve in the coming election. Her only candidate for delegate, A. F. Wildt (who, by the way, stood for the very things for which Gov, Swineford stands and who has from the begiouing said he would not be a candidate against Gov. Swiueford) has withdrawn from the race. There is not a thing to mar the purely disiuterested attitude of the people of Skagway. Therefore, we say, belseviug that a time has arrived where they should unite upon a single candidate for delegate to congress, they have naturally turned to Gov. Swine ford.

WILOT WITRDRAWS
 FOR SWINFF0RD

Skagway, Alaska, May 23.-To the Editor of the Daily Alaskan:-Circum- stances over which I have had no con- trol have developed which will make make it impossible for me to Icontinue my candidacy for the nomination for delegate to congress, and believing that the time has come when ali those who favor self-goVerument should unite their forces and join ID support ing one man for that office, feel that it is incumbent upon me to withdraw from the contest h doing this I ask all those who might have favored me to give their support to Ex-GOV. A. P. Swineford, the foremost representative of the cause of home rule in the dis riGt. Gov, Swineford is the personi. fcuJiOn of the cause of fself-goyernment for the Alaskan people, and his election as our delegate to congress would leave no opportunity to mistake our position on that vital question. .I

The people of Skagway will support former Gov. A.P. Swinetord for dele gate to congress. That was demoustra- ted today by the alaCrttY with which they are signing a petition, addressed to the rugged old warrior in behalf ot Alaska, requesting him to stand as a non-partisau candidate for the position.
 This petition was offered to the peo- pie for signature iu response to a de- maud which has eminsted from them. By common consent the masses in this town seem 70 have arrived at the con- clusiou that the time has arrived to un- ite upon a candidate for delegate to congress of whose position on the question of seIf-government there can be DO doubt ia the mind of any man, Naturally they turned to Gov. Swine ford.
 For many years the people of Skag- way have been admirers of Gov. Swine ord, who begaa the contest to secure the rights of American citizenship for the American people who reside in AL aska more than 20 years ago, and who

BRUTAL ADMIRAL WILL DIE.

Sebastapol, July 1.-THE doctors
hold out no hope for the recovery OF
Admiral Chouknin. who was attacked
by an assassin. The admiraPs assail-
ant is thought TO be one of the sailors
of the battleship Otchakoff, and his
act is supposed to be in revenge for
the execution of Lieut.. Schmidt. the
revolutionary leader.
Chouknin was universally hated by
his sailors and at the time Of The
execution of Schmidt the revolution
lists condemned him to death, one hun
bred of their number pledging them
selves to carry out this sentence.
This is the second attempt since
Schmidts execution, March 10 last.
The first was made by woman, and
after her effort had failed Chouknin
ordered her to be killed on the spot
and his orderlies brutally carried out
the sentence in the court yard. For
this the admiral was again condemned
TO death by the revolutionists. His
name was never mentioned among his
sailors unless it was accompanied by
curses on account of his oyerbearing
and severe manner.

of which had to be carried fifteen
miles, requiring the building of over
three hundred miles of spur tracks.
The question of obtaining sufficient

and that ii had been necessary to
employ large number of natives and
Cinnamon, three of whom would do
less work than an average American.
The estimated cost of the Panama
