CAME TO DEATH FROM
 DRINKING WOOD ALCOHOL

The coroner's jury this afternoon brought in q verdict declaring that Jerry ONeil came to his death from the effects of drinking wood alcohol. Nothing was brought out to show where he had obtained the poison or whether or not it was taken accident ally or otherwise.
 A chemical analysis of the contents of the stomach of Jerry o'Neil demon. strated that he had drunk a sufficient quantity of wood alcohol to produce death. The analysis was made by Dr. l.. O. Egginton, Milt Vim and O. F. Hm after the autopsy and examination of the vicera by Dr. L. o. Egginton.
 The report of analysis of the con- tents of the stomach states that a Quantitative test had not been made, but that the test made indicated the presence of a large quantity of wood alcohol in the stomach.
 The funeral was held this afternoon from the Undertaking Parlors of the c. w. Young company.

By. ron A. Day, the expert for the Game we'll people who installed the appar. atus says that he thinks that it is line trouble that lnterferred with the work ing of these two stations and that 1t can easily be discovered and put right.
 The council committee, consisting of w. S. Pullen, w. H. Case, William Geddes, accompanied by Mayor c. w. Carter and Fire Chief Milton Vim, made the rounds of the stations, pull. ing each one in succession as they came to them.
 The bell. which was purchased by the Town of Juneau many years ago, does not respond in a satisfactory mannre and it will have to be re. placed with a new bell, according to Mir. Day, if the system is to be a sue cess. The local founders have agreed to turn out bell at cost of labor and material if the town of Juneau elects to have them do so, and Mir. Day says he sees no reason why a good bell cannot be cast in the. foundry here.
 Chief Milton Vim, of the fire de- partment says that he is very pleased with the new Gamewell automatic fire signal system but believes there should be a loud rapid action electric alarm arranged to proceed the signal toll of the bell

PLATFORM OF THE PEOPLES
 PARTY.

Believing in the doctrine of our fore fathers that all men are created free and equal and should take part In pub lie affairs, as is their inalienabie right, and further believing that we have the ability to correct the many abus- es which have been inflicted upon the City of Juneau during the past year and that a public office is a public trust which should be administered for the benefit of the City and its people and with the sole view of work ing for the best interests of the peo- pie, and for the people, and not as their masters; believing in all the fore going, We hereby declare ourselves to be candidates for City Councilmen, to be voted for at the municipal cleo tion to be held on the 7th day of Ap- Til. 1914, and We hereby present the following as our platform upon which we agree to stand irrevocably in case we should be elected:
 First. We declare that all just debts owing by the City should be paid as speedily as possible but that in every instance labor claims should be preferred.
 Second. We declare that by using harmony and business sense that we can and will pay every just debt now owing by the City We will maintain our schools, fire department, police department and all public utilities in the highest state of efficiency and will make extensions of streets and sew CTS as required. will improve the fire fighting apparatus, avail ourselves of the contract which We hold with the Alaska Juneau Gold Mining Company for a supply of water and can and will extend mains to the top of the ridge and throughout the business part of the town, thereby reducing the insur- ance rates and saving vast sums of money for the people-and will have money left at the end of our term. This we can do by close economy and through the discharge of host of salaried individuals.
 Third We declare for a just and
 
 equitable tax, and We do not believe that the favored few should escape and that those without the inner cir cle should be robbed through an ex- cessive assessment, we believe in the equality of man.
 Fourth. We declare for single tax. That is to say that all public work should be done at public ex- pense; that plans and specifications should be furnished for all such work and that the same should be submit ter to public bid whenever possible, and We further declare that all sup plies used by the City should be fur nished by competitive bids; and we further declare that all street, sewer, and sidewalk work should be done at the public expense. Since they are owned by the public the public should
