GROGAN'S

One of the most absolutely
unfounded beliefs of some
people is that our prices must
be high simply because we
allow our customers months
of time in which to pay for
their homefurnishings.
We prove beyond question
that this idea is wrong by
marking the price of every
article in our store in figures
you can read.
There IS no haggling ever
I, prices here: wo do not mark
| them by a secret code and
then tell you the price ac-
| cording to what we think
you will be willing to pay.
4 We know that our prices are as
\ low as you can find for goods of
/ equal value. and we prove Ii by
/ putting them right where you can
/ see just what they are-an invita-
II. tion that you make the most care

of any other house in the city.

Nearly five hundred men crowded sbe hall of the Alaska Labor Union last Saturday evening to enjoy a smoker and high jinks. It was sa representative gathering of the men who do the work at the Treadwell mines and mills. The crowd gathered in the lodge ball, where they were supplied with an abundance of pipes and tobacco and glasses kept full. At the expiration of one hour all were invited to the Lyric theatre, where the movies, the comedian, Ira Robert son, and the Douglas Mandolin club kept them laughing for another hour, when supper was announced in the banquet ball upstairs.
 The Alaska Labor Union has become a factor in the lives of the working men of Douglas Island. It is organized on the dive and let live0 principle and as an organization has done much good, It looks after the sick, helps bury the dead, and through its various com mittees has brought about many need cd reforms for the benefit of the work CTS at Treadwen It's mem bership is large and it owns the beautiful hall that bears It's name, the first story of which is occupied by the Lyric theatre and the upper floor by the lodge and banquet hall. It is live, prosperous and happy organization, and it's bene. hts, both to its members and the com munity, are numerous.

The report of Miss Isabelle S. Thurs by, industrial teacher at Douglas, forms a part of che report on the work of the bureau of education for the natives of Alaska, I9ll-12. Miss Thursby has great faith in the Indians of Alaska and compares them favorably with the Scandinaviaus. "All we need to do for them,n she writes, "is to help them bridge the ohasm from barbarism to civilization This bridging process, the lady avers, may be accomplished in a single generation if the government win provide sufficient funds" She approves the Hydaburg Klukwan plan, mainly because it is a feasible method of drawing the Indians together in larger communities. While she con- demns potlatches as productive of ex- travagant waste and other evils, she feels that some form of highly civilized amusement should be provided for the poor native, who likes fun. The Iu- dians should be encouraged in the con- tinuauoe and improvement of purely native industries in which they do not compete with white labor

The rainfall on Sunday was perhaps Che heaviest ever experienced in this part of Alaska. The rain was warm, and the snow tbat had been accumulat ing on the mountain tops melted and came down in rushing, roaring torrents. Down in Indian town cabin slipped from it's foundation and started for the beach, but was stopped by another building. Over at Sheep creek about 200 feet of Hume belonging to the Treadwen company was washed out. Juneau also had her troubles. The city water works were put out of bus. mess by a slide, aud rocks crashed down the mountain sides right into the houses, causing the inmates to fly for their lives. No injuries to life and limb are reported. Just after nightfall occurred one of those phenomena, ex- eeedingly rare in this part of Alaska, a blinding, vivid flash of sheet lightning, followed by the dull roar of thunder. It was indeed a wet rain.
