Home Again

Mir. A. Murray, a pioneer citizen of Douglas, returned last week on the Humbo from a visit to the States and his old home town back in New Brunswick, which he left in 1874 to come west and seek his fortune. He looks fiue aud says that he enjoyed every minute of his trip. He says that he enjoyed a "feed" of the big eastern Holsters, such as he used to capture when boy, but says they are not much superior to the splendid Alaska crab. In fact they are not SO tender.

With this issue the News starts out on the eighteenth year of it's existence as a purveyor of common sense and morality among the people. During this time Douglas has grown from a little village to city of considerable importance, and in many respects a model one. Little tots have grown up to be strong, manly men and lovely women. Even the dreaded Taku winds have been toned down to a respectful attitude and lack the penetrating power of years ago. The population has iu- creased and instead of great droves of long-legged, ugly looking men, there is now a good per cent of women and happy, laughing children. Only those whose memories go back to the uineties can appreciate tho great change. As the News Man thinks of the years that have gone by, years filled with trouble and sorrow and joy, a feeling of thanks. giving comes to him for the many blessings that we now enjoy.

The disappearance of Wm. Christie and the crimes of which Edward Krause is accused still occupy a large part of public attention. As far as Christie is concerned, absolutely noth. ing has been learned. From the day he left his work at Treadwell he has dropped out of sight as completely as # the earth had opened up and swal- lowed him. Krause, who came to Treadwell and induced Christie to ac- company bim, presumably to Juneau, has been arrested at Seattle, turned loose and then re-arrested, and will probably be brought back to Juneau through extradition papers to answer to the charge of murder. Krause still sticks to the story that be acted for another in taking Christie to Juneau; that the other man was a stranger and that on landing at Juneau, Christie and the stranger walked away aud that was the last he saw of them. Besides laying the disappearance and possible murder of Christie upon the shoulders of Krause, local papers have not hesi tated to add every imaginable form of crime, including three or four murders, robbery and anarchy. They have even gone SO far as to declare that an anar- chistic society existed at Petersburg, the bright little town at the head of Wrangell Narrows, of which society Krause was the moving spirit and head. To fact, these papers have shown an altogether vindictive spirit in the mat
 ter, inspired, perhaps, in one case, by a rooted hatred for all peoples of German origin, aud in both a play for sensational news. The introduction of SO many suspicious, which in most cases are not at all we'll founded and in some instances positively foolish, and the positive manner in which they have been declared, has in6amed the minds of the people on both sides of the channel until there is even talk of lyuching when the prisoner is brought North. If Edward Krause is to be found guilty, let him be punished, but it is surely not the province of reput- able newspaper to poison the minds of the people of this community against him that prejudice will usurp the place of justice.
