The seemingly arbitrary order from the postofice department discontinu- ing the mail routes covered by the Ju- neau Steamship Company, is stirring up something of a hornets nest, and all the influence available is being en- listed by those interested to have the order resciuded. The general impress sion seems to be that the action was hasty and based on the report of a sps- cial investigator of the Alaska mail service, a man by the name of Neil, who made a trip through this part of the country last summer and who, in real
 ity, knows as little of the actual con- ditions, requirements and needs of out. lying points in Alaska as the average Alaskan knows of the conditions on the Island of Madagascar For the benefit of the points interested, as we'll as the merchants of GastiDeau Chan

But he had his trade, that of a woodworker, aud tbat indomitable eu- ergy and "pep" that never fails, and within a short time, seeing the pOssi- bilities of this section of Alaska, he was at the work from whence grew the concerns above mentioned, both of which be carried on with satisfaction to his patrons and success to himself until be recently sold out to Sheldon X McKauua of Juneau, who will continue the business here.

Thoughtlessness and Flth

One day this week a small boy was noticed to throw not less than eleven pieces of crumpled paper, each as large as letter sheet, on the sidewalk and street while walking from the corner of D street to the Lutheran church, less than half block. Such wanton acts make any town look like a siwash camp, besides, there is no excuse for such lack of breeding.

VOTE YOUR CONVICTIONS.

NOLL 1OLh JUN ACAACA'o'
 The question as to whether Douglas is Go continue in the list of "wet" towns or switch Go the 'dry" colum is for the residents of tbe town to consider and settle within the next few weeks aud che question Is one which the individ- ual man or woman should decide for him or herself.
 This paper does not presume Co die tate to any man OF woman as to how be or she should vote. It Is an insult to manhood or womanhood for any one to attempt any such dictation, especially if the voters possess average intelli geuce. Otherwise, they should not be votero.
 lt is, however, the duty of every voter to be thoroughly posted on the merits of the question at issue-to thoroughly weigh its advantages and disadvantages, compare the two and then vote with the one having the pre- pouderauce of argument.
 If the use of liquor has been of bene- ft to you, to any member of your fam ily.or to any of your friends, then vote to retain the saloons.
 If you know of any young men who were on the high road to bell through practicing abstinence, but who took 10 drinking in time Co save themselves, then vote to continue the liquor traffic in order that other young men may be saved in the same manner.
 If, on Che other hand, liquor has worked injury Go you, to any member of your family or to auy of your friends, then vote Go banish it the same as you would take steps to banish any enemy Of yourself, your family or your friend. # you know of any young men whose futures were blighted. whose careers were cut short, who, in short, went Go he'll through the agency of strong drink, then vote 10 remove the same blightiug curse from the reach of other young men.
 fyou think the continuance of the liquor traffic will be of benefit Go your growing sons and daughters, by all means vote for such continuance. It is wholly a matter of choice which you, yourself, must decide, and see to it that you make such decision of your own volitiou, Don't vote wet Co accommo- date some liquor dealer and don't vote dry because some bowling temperance crank asks you to. Decide the question for yourself. Make Dp your mind by asking and answering few questions put to yourself and let these be two of them:
 Do my experience aud observation lead me Co believe that the liquor traf- hc is of benefit to me in particular and humanity in general?
 Do my experience aud observation lead me to believe that liquor is injuri ous to me in particular and humanity ln generalt
 Answer the foregoing questions hon. estly and base your vote on the an. swer. By doing SO, you will be honest with yourself aud fair with your neigh bor.
 Pay no attention to the argument that elimination of the saloons will in. crease the value of taxable property from fifteen to twenty per cent. and, on the other hand. pay no attention to the argument that elimination of the saloons will curtail the revenue for schools The financial situation will take care of itself the same as it has taken care of itself in every emergency in the past Simply vote as your con science dictates and you will satisfy yourself by being true to yourself
