Hold TO Water Front.

George l.. Baker, according Ia
the Journal, a councilman OF Port
land and a very observing one, has
made a tour OF the coast and makes
the following statement:
Portland aud Sacramento are
the only cities oil the Pacific coast
which do not own part OF their
waterfront privileges" Mr.. Baker
said this morning. From talking
with men in the shipping business
while in the south find that many
of them do not like the idea that
Portland $ municipality has been
neglectful in this way. They argue
that owing to the fact that the
wharf rights are controlled by the
railroad and other companies their
business has been hindered to a
large extent"
The point we wish to make is
that ST. Johns should hold every
foot OF water front she has and ac-
quire every foot that she can. II
she does not a hall century from
now the people will be censuring
the management that allowed these
holdings to slip through their
fingers.

Still Stuck on Juneau.

We are in receipt OF another let
ter from our friend, J, &. Brooks
now in Juneau, Alaska, also a copy
of the Daily Alaska Dispatch, a
very prosperous looking sheet,
Brother Brooks seems more than
ever infatuated with the locality of
Juneau aud from what lac says this
Juneau must be a sort OF a freak so
far as climate Is concerned. lie
says he wears the same clothing
that he wore here except that he
uses lighter overcoat, and that
he never suffers from cold. There
has been but little snow aud no
wind to speak OF except on the day
he wrote, February ?, when, fol-
lowing a ive.inch snow fall there
was considerable wind.
The bill OF fare he says is varied,
sometimes Il is pork aud beans,
cornbread and bacon aud il one is
particular he may have white bread
and butter, eggs, etc, aud the but
ter and eggs are not the packed
variety either, Such meals are 3Sc
at the Polar Bear cafe where he
dimes aud his cook cannot be beat
he declares.
The aborigines about Juneau are
much the same as those we have
here, but further along the coast
they get foxy and have been ac-
cused of several murders.
Brother Brooks says there is no
sickness in Juneau and the weather
all that could be desired, meadow
larks singing, but up in the Tana-
ma district he says the thermometer
went down to 6S and 10 below aud
on extremely cold nights they have
to attach piece of gas pipe to the
lower part OF the thermometer so
that the alcohol may go low
enough. He also tells OF another
feature. A man there who goes
by the name of Iceberg Joe goes
out into the channel and catches
small icebergs as they come from
the glacier 40 miles away, tows
them to the shore, cuts them up
and sells the ice to the people.
This beats the Harris Ice company
a mile.
We are glad to get these letters
from Mr.. Brooks as they correct
some erroneous ideas about Alaska.

To the editor Of the St. Johns
Review: ! would consider il q kind
ness II you would caution the good
citizens Of ST. Johns that the regu-
lar meeting Of the St. Johns Com.
mercial club will lie held IN IL
assembly room Wednesday evening
February io, and urge the import

of ST. Johns has so many weighty
problems OF public interest con-

gently, not by some political fac
ton only, but by all the people,
irrespective OF politics or religion.
The club rooms were furnished
and are maintained for the purpose
OF having a place where business
men may meet and express their

The entertainment given under
the auspices Of the ladies OF the

have been a particularly pleasing
event. There were about 200 pres

was intense throughout.
There were IA numbers aud every
one was called back and in one in

the audience would not be satisfied
until he had given them three solos.
The ladies quartette and the male
quartette are both spoken OF as

necessary to go out OF ST. Johns for
talent to put a high class enter
tainment on the boards.
