Wanted-A Scape Goat.
BY LEO.

SOlemnly LOADING Cne Sill VI Ulle
people upon a goat, the said goat
to be turned loose and headed
toward the wilderness carrying
upon him the sins of the whole
people-a scape goat.
The scape goat is still in de-
mand, especially when a nation
suffers a reverse. The cause may
be the fault of the whole people,
but the people as a whole cannot
be driven into the wilderness,
and hence some one person is Sc
lected to be loaded with the en-
tire blame, and oftentimes the
innocent is made to suffer for
the guilty. 1t is argued that it
is better for one man to suffer
than that whole nation should
be put to the blush.
President Van Buren serves
here for example. The Jackson
administration, by unwise med
ding with financial matters, had
prepared the way for a financial
panic. And some time after Old
Hickory had retired to the Her.
mitage near Nashville the panic
came, came like a whirlwind ov-
er the whole land threatening
general devastation. There was
general growing and President
Van Buren,, though Innocent was
made a scape goat to be loaded
with all the blame, and finally be
driven to the dreary desert of
retirement.
So it is in every panic. Some
person must be loaded with the
nations blame.
Who is to blame for the late
panic? The true answer must
be the people themselves, espec-
tally, the people dealing in spec
ulations. For several years we
had enjoyed an enormous pros
perity-call it by that name-and
everybody seemed to have money
in abundance. At such times
credit is stretched to the utmost
and people buy farms, merchan-
disc, railroads, workshops, and
all manner of commodities, use
full and ornamental. They incur
great debts because money can
be borrowed at low interest, and
they imagine things will continue
prosperous for ever; anyhow, as
long as the Republican party is
in power.
But, alas, some venturesome
rascal contracts debts he can ne
yer pay, that is he trades with
trust money, and trades badly,
comes to grief, he can not re-
fund the stolen money. The
news is published in great head
lines in the papers, the country
is alarmed: men rush to-the
banks for their deposit money
There is a widespread fear Of
direful loss of money-a panic.
Who is to blame? You say the
people; but do not say it loud o.
often. It is safer to blame some
one person-to select a scape goa
and load him down.
Our senior senator, Foraker, i
a cunning man a real philosoph
er-knows how to do about sucl
things. He will not blame tn

It has everything to hand to the purpose, naturally beautiful streams cOursing through 1t, wide thoroughfsres, good drainage, d world of cature all around us to draw from. The work of such aD organization could be made im- mediately effective. The first move might be to secure tbe authorization from the council for the removal of a few more old shacks-and then their removal. How easily done and how very effective would be the planting here and there on street corners ofa few trees, the convenient placing ot boxes as catch-alIs-In Keeping the streets free from rubbish the cleaning up of the alleys of the ac- cumulstious Of several seasons, the tbe planting of a few hardy flowers on the vacant lors-why, in DO time the whole city might be thus made beautiful park to what grea, addition to our joy of living aud to the sur~ prise aud delight of summer visitors, every one of whom would go away advertising the fact of whs' fine people we are and what fue city we have.
 The creeks lowing through the city could be made beautiful by cleaning them of rubbish aud planting marsh marigolds and other water plants along their margins. Willows and wi'd rose bush could be planted along the banks Of the streams to make them things of beauty. Everyone in Sksg- way could and should be a member of the club. Each little child could have a small piece of ground to be planted with seeds and so the children would be taught to value the beautiful.
 While advertising our wonderful natural attractions, our nearby glaciers and historical points of interesE, let us begin at home by making 8 practical demonstration through these simple means that the people of Skagway are not only a beauty loving people, but thatwe actually have the climate and the blooms and the gcOd will Who among us shall carry the honor of making the first move in this good ,y,rJg
