THE GOVERNORS CELLAR.

From an item appearing in the Times of yesterday we learn of the work Governor Clark has been per forming at Washington ill behalf of the country of which he is the over lord. The sum total of his accom- plishment, so far as We can gather from the rather lengthy article is the securing of an appropriation of $l2.O0 for the enforcement of the liquor law and the appointment of an assistant district attorney al Cordo va. No reference is made 10 the question of detention hospitals at Fairbanks, or Nome, although the governor goes into details regarding the mansion that is being built for him at the governments expense.
 In connection with this mansion the governor informs us that the build ing will be two stories, with q large cellar" This suggests that he has an eye to his own comfort. even if his holding up of the Fairbanks and Nome hospitals indicates that he does not think those mentally un- balanced deserve any better quarters or treatment than criminals PrOba- bly. however. he thinks there is no particular hurry in regard to the insane patients, but that it is of the greatest importance there should be large and ample cellar under the Alaskan White House. He may real ize that he and Shackleford may have to hold some long and weighty confabs about a year from now, simi lar to those they held in Fairbanks, and that much confidence and strength may be acquired from that cellar. Therefore is it meet and proper that 1t should be large And in the meantime let the enforcement of the liquor law be proceeded with to the last cent of the $12,OOO. Some body needs the money.

ORGANIZATION.
St4I'N

In spite of he very evident de sire of the Times to circulate the be lief that the Democratic party of Alaska is unorganized it is not likely thai even T few of the few readers of that paper will be misled into the belief. Neither will any real Demo crats who take the slightest interest Ill the affairs of the party believe the stories the Times is publishing to the effect that there is a split in the ranks.
 It can truly be said that today the Democrats ill Alaska are better or ganiZed than ever before and that there is no chance whatever of there being any split in the party. And it can with equal truth be asserted that when the time comes candidate for the delegateship will be forthcOm-
 ing on whom the party in every DOT tion of the territory will unite. There may be. as always happens in party politics. some disgruntled member of the party who will with loud mouth voice his dissatisfaction at some par ty move. but he will be. again fol- lowing the usual custom, dumped overheard. and his falling will not raise a ripple on the waters nor disturb 10 the slightest extent the SC renity of the party.
 That the Democrats are organized will be fully demonstrate ed at the election next year. when their can didate will be elected by majority in accord with the landslide due to occur in the states. In the mean time ii behooves those who already belong to the party. or. who have leanings that way. 10 make them selves known to it's leaders here, so that the full strength of the dis trict can be correctly estimated. Pro testations of having voted the right way. after tbe election. do not merit nearly so much consideration as a willingness to fight in the ranks while the battle is on.

would not be better to make the hospital an annex to the jail, and Mir. Love wired that this would be a good idea or u might be we'll tp buy the old Fairbanks bank propery and build the hospital where the bank ware house now stands; but il neither oI these plans was adopted he would favor the Cushmau street site
 This leaves the matter lf the act nal building of the hospital just about as far away as it has been at any time since the bill was passed. and there appears 10 be no one 10 blame for the delay but Governor Clark and Marshal Love
 Clark was responsible in the first place by advancing the ridiculous proposition that the government could not accept donated site. This was silly in the face of the fact that the government had already re ccived free the sites OH which all of the government buildings in Fair banks are built And his motive i'll delaying the project is apparent and easily readable by those who are acquainted with his bitter opposition to the delegate. and his d.teimina. ton that Wickersham shall get noth- ing for the territory that could in any way enhance his prestige.
 Exactly the same motive exists in the case of Marshal Love. who has never taken any pains whatever to conceal his dislike for the delegate what he could To njure his standing.
 Afrer having expressed his approval of the lots selected by the judge and the council there was only one course that the marshal could con sisjently pursue when queried by the attorney.general. and that was 10 come out fatfooted and state that he still approved the selection of the tuShmau street property. He knows as well as anyone that there is no chance to get through an appropri- ation sufficient to buy the bank prop er,y al this session. and that there fore il would be another Wear before anything could be done toward build ing the hospital. By holding up, by suggestion. the work at this time h.. lays himself open to the same charge that does Governor Clark that he is exploiting his hatred for the delegate to the detriment of the serve

THE DETENTION HOSPITAL.

A year ago there was d bill pass .d ill congress providing for the cree tiun of q detention hospital in Fair banks. The bill was so framed that it's passage automatically created an appropriation of SIP. for the car rying out of the work.
 Nothing was done with the matter although it was left entirely in the hands of the federal officials and the governor. until October last. At that time the Citizen took up the matter and consulted the federal officials here. Deputy Marshal Charles, act ing marshal ill the absence of MT Love. thought nobody here had any thing 10 say in the matter-that the government would act when it was ready. The Citizen thought differ ent ly and called on Judge Overfield. His honor was unaware that the appropri- ton was called to the bill. He then promptly wired Governor Clark ask ing if steps could not al once be Taken to let the contract for the erection of the building on the plans found suitable by himself and the marshal. Governor Clark wired back that the bill was defective in that no appropriation had been made in it for site. He was promptly an swered that in this case. as ill that of all other government buildings erected here. the city was prepared 10 donate site Further objections were then received from the governor to the effect that the government could not legally accept site thus donated. These objections were over come by the city council and word was received from Governor Clark that no more delay would be occa- stoned if a site was agreed on and approved by the marshal and judge.
 In pursuance of this advice the judge and the council agreed on a suitable site on Cushman. street. and Marshal Love gave his approval. Next came wire from the attorney general asking the marshal if it

NEW GE1.RICH.QUICK SCHEME

WASHINGTON, June :. A new get-rich-quick swindle, which rivals some of the swindles of recent years for it's ingenuity. is being successful ly operated in some of the Pacific coast states. It's trail is said to reach as far east as New York. Se- cret service men are working on it.
 Prospective victims are told that the United States government is short of money and that to avert panic the treasury is quietly floating an immense issue of national bank notes. It is represented that a CO., terie of New York fnanciers have un- dertaken to underwrite the issue. which is offered to victims on the basis of 50 per cent Secret service men say the swindlers usually ex- hibit a genuine g national bank note as sample of the issue.
 Several citizens of Seattle are re- ported to have paid in sums ranging from $500 to $l.000 with the ex. pectation of receiving double that sum in genuine national bank notes before next winter.
 Secret service men have found gathering of evidence difficult as the victim is first initiated into sup posed secret organization and sworn to secrecy

IT SMELT TO HEAVEN.

The unfortunate decisions that were given in two of the horse races and in regard to the bets on the drilling contest tended very materially to create bad feeling on the part of our creek visitors Another incident of the celebration had the proper steps not been taken, would have this feeling to very extent We refer to the fact that there was an attempt made to sell the programs Cn the street instead of distributing them free.
 This is matter that the Times must explain or assume the respOnsi- bility for what appeared to be an at tempt to work petty graft in con- nection with a patriotic celebration.
 Since the Fourth has been celebrat- ed here the privilege of getting out the program has been sCld to the highest bidder. Bids have been called for on a certain number of programs to be turned over to the committee for free distribution amongst the crowd The bidder has made his profit by getting advertising for the program. The advertising man of the Times put in the highest bid and was awarded the privilege. Probably with the idea that the soliciting of ads for the program would interfere with the soliciting of ads for the

DELEGATE FROM ALASKA.

In view of the fact that certain interested persons have been trying to create the impression that the Citizen is failing in it's duty 10 the Democratic party by. at times. refer ling to the work of Delegate Wick ersham at Washington. or by refrain ing from throwing mud at him like the daiiies. the following extract from an editorial run in this paper last September is reprinted:
 This paper has been since it's inception. and will continue 10 be. Democratic. But it's management declines. and will continue 10 de cline to become identified with that clique of politicians @ who, failing to trace distinction between James Wickersham. candidate for election, from Alaska persist in their Oppo- sition 10 the duly elected representa- ' the Citizen will do its best ta elect q Democrat to the position now oc- cupied by James Wickersham; as it would have done last month had a Democrat been in the field. And two years hence. as il is now, il will be prepared to do all it can tG help the delegate al Washington. so long as he is the duly elected representative of the people of Alaska, whatever may be his name or his political complexion IL is in this way only that the interests of Alaska can be served and the suspicion eradicated that nGusht but dissension exists here
 The Citizen. in common with clean thinking Alaskans. believes that no good can come of the ef forts of q few disgruntled politicians to retard the work Of the delegate before he committees in the hope that they can say when he returns that he has been unable to accom- plish anything. On he other hand il is willing to fall into line with the majority Of the people of Alas ka who elected their representative and do all ill it's power to help him help Alaska. until such time as his term of office shall have expired. Reserving. always. the right to Cri;l else frankly and honestly whenever such q course shall. in it's judgment, be necessary.
 This editorial was copied in most of the newspaDeis Of Alaska and ia vorably commented on, and the Citi- Zen believes its stand is indOrsed. At any rate il sees no reason at this time for changing it.

HOW PETER COOK
 WAS KILLED

IDlTAROD. June 24 Coming without warning or premOnitiOn, |, tragedy occurred at the head of Flat. Thursday forenoon. heading the som Der list of mine accidents and writ ing the almost instant epitaph of Pc ter Cook. well known SOurdough and miner.
 The accident occurred about 3 o'clock while Cook was working in the bottom of an open. cut with William Bevins. one of his partners. A huge boulder, weighing several tons. was lodged ill the bank of the cut as though placed there for all time. but without warning il fell, catching Cook when his back was turned and crushing him to the earth. He was entirely covered with the exception of his head. the bones of his limbs were crushed, and except for a grCan or two he uttered no sound The only witness, Mover, who happened along just at the trag iC moment, says he believes death was only matter of q few seconds.
 ms NhV SVHSi di s'it'i TIT iie IT from the adjoining claims rushed to the scene, but were unable to lift the bg rock from the body until jack was secm ed. He was quite dead when taken out.
 The funeral took place yesterday afternoon from the Smith undertak- ing parlors and many friends were there to pay the last respects to the departed whose life was so sudden ly snuffed out. Judge Maltby made a short funeral oration, sacred hymns were sung. and friends and partners of the deceased followed the re- mains to the grave. The pail bear CTS were Joe Davis. A. A. Beattle, T. w. Jackson, Al Walsh, Ray Long ton and Al Burke.

 As to what relief tobacco growers and tobacco consumers may derive from this decision. that is story which cannot be told until the eX- piration of the eight months re- prieve. With the solicitude of the court that nobody shall be hurt-unless il is the growers and consumers: with the technical loopholes for doing il- legal things in legal way. and with such experts in the art of doing as they please as are the per petratOrs of the Tobacco Trust. the public will not, in advance of the re- suit, be overly sanguine On the contrary. there will be general sympathy with the blunt old Justice ilarlan's declaration: T have found nothing in the record which makes me at all anxious to perpetuate any new combination among these com, panies which the court comedies had al all times exhibited conscious wrongdoing."
