POSTMASTER GENERALS REPORT.

The report Of Postmaster General
Frank II. Hitchcock. released to the
public yesterday, shows for the first
time the gratifying transfer on the
ledger balance Of the Postoffice De-
partment of the account from the
Of the department for the fiscal year
ending June so, 1911, were $237, ,s79,
S23.60; the expenditures were $237,-
66o ,705,4S. showing surplus of $2l9,-
1lS.l2, not large, but marking a new
era.
The success Of the postal savings
system is dwelt upon with satisfaction,
and the establishment of parcels
post Is warmly urged, this to be first
tried on the rural delivery system.
The franking privilege is condemned
in its present form. The change urged
is that the different departments and
Congressman be supplied with different
colored stamps as needed The reor-
ganizstiou of the railway mail service
is strongly urged. and the extension
Of the rural mail service to villages
and in broader scope, including parcels
post, is recommended
For the first time, there is an official
notice Of the aeroplane mail service,
and the fact is stated that the first
aerial dispatch Of u. S. mail was in
September last, when 43, 900 pieces
were carried from Aeroplane Postal
30
Minoola, Long Island, The hope is ex
pressed that, with the progress in the
science OF aviation, regular conveyance
of mail by these means may be prac-
ticabe. If feasible, such service would
be useful "in many districts where the
natural conditions preclude other means
of rapid transportation. - Undou bteJly,
such means would be Of especial value
in the broken country of this Western
mountain region.
The incorporation of the telegraph
lines with the postal system is urged,
and it is pleaded that in practically all
European countries this consolidation
is made. Here, however, President
Taft expressly dissents, holding that it
presents question Of government
ownership of public utilities (Which
are now being conducted by private
enterprise under franchises from the
Government, The President believes
that the true principle is that private
enterprise should be permitted to carry
on such public utilities under due regu-
lation as to rates by proper authority
rather than that the Government should
itself conduct them We believe
that the President s view herein is
sound, and that the criticisms he makes
are valid

EDITORIAL P AGE

this publication is spent right in Sksgway, with the exception Of the small amount used In the purchase of white paper. Much of the in come Of the Daily Alaskan is de- rived from advertising and subscrip- tious from scores of places in the states, and even in foreign coun- tries, every cent of which is brought to Skagway and put into circulation where each and every one of us are benefited.
 In order to produce a daily news paper at all, it has been necessary to hay the very generous support of the merchants and the people of Skagway: and with but few excep- tions we have enjoyed that privil- ege. That is a satisfaction. Another satisfaction is that there are but two cities in Alaska that publish larger newspapers containing more telegraphic news-Fairbanks and Ju ueau.
 We are writing this for the bene- fit of those who read the paper and say there is nothing in 1t" for truly it is only from a financial standpoint to the publishers that there is nothing in it.

FIRST GRAY
HAIR sign OF AGE
Easy Way to Preserve Natural
Color of the Hair and
Make Ii Grow.

A harmless remedy, made from COM
garden sage, quickly restores gray
hair to natural color. The care of the
hair, to prevent it from losing its color
and lustre, is just as important as to
care for teeth to keep them from dis
coloring. Why spend money for Co.'S
metics and creams to improve the COM
plexion, and yet neglect your hair,
when gray hair is even more conspicu-
ous M suggestive of age than
wrinkles or a poor complexion? OF the
two it Is easier to preserve the natural
color and beauty of the hair than IL
is to have a good complexion.
All that is necessary is the occasional
use of Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair
Remedy, a preparation of common
garden Sage and Sulphur, combined
with other valuable remedies for dry,
harsh, faded hair, dandruff, itching
scalp and falling hair. After a few APP
plications of this simple, harmless
remedy, your hair will gradually be
restored to it's natural color, in a short
time the dandruff will be removed, and
your hair will no longer come out but
will start to grow as Nature intended
II should.
Don't neglect your hair, for it goes
further than anything else to make or
mar your good looks. You a buy
this remedy at any drug store fol
fifty cents a bottle, and your druggist
will give your money back If you are
not satisfied after using. Purchase a
bottle today. You will never regret II
when you realize the difference 1t vii
make In your appearance. Specia'
