WARNING WITH X BLOW.

Sometimes 9 warning comes without blow but other times it is accompanied with not only blow but with sorrow such as the one received in the death of the baby girl last Wednesday through an unavoidable agency.
 According to witnesses of the accident which resulted in the death of child, it would be hard to rlace the blame on any one in particular. un- less it would be the child herself. Evidently her little mind failed to realize the danger and on the impulse of the moment plunged in the grip of death. Only for the child's age, we might say that it 3 case of attempt at suicide
 There is feeling prevailing that the speed of the autos through the streets is excessive. That fifteen miles an hour is too much for an auto to travel our narrow streets; and we are inclined to the same belief yet at the time of the accident the speed obtained was not over eight miles an hour. From lhat 1t follows that the driver can not be blamed
 Here in Ketchikan, it is very noticeable that "e eCer2iagly prefer walking in the middle of the sseTs to the sidewalks. The children for no better reason prefer to play in tn estreet than on the sidewalks. The auto driver has no right to use he sidewalk and he doesn't and naturally he meets all kinds of Instructions which must result disas5rously sometimes, and last Wednes- day was one time that brought a blow and 2 Walgling 10 keep off the streets.

THE COUNTRY'S LOSS.

Who is this man Denman who has been the cause of our country losing the services ot man like General Goethals? Whoever he may be, 1t is evident that he had a pull somewhere. By his action preparedness for the great conflict was retarded out of proportion to his services to the country however valuable they might have been.
 The almost historic failing of the president in his appointments of incompetent men has again been shown in forceful manner. Den- man has shown his incompetency to grasp the magnitude of the task and by his stubborness, forced a man of far superior ability to quit a job which requires man to fill-to the coun- try's loss
