a. MUGG ON SUFFRAGE.
BY Damon RunyOn.

a simple scheme that everybody is
surprised nobody ever thinks Of 1t
before. So Frank goes ahead, and
does it.
There is a dame in our town by
the name of Carrie Cluny who is a
bear of a locker my old man says.
and young, and all such as that, and
this Carrie is the leader OF nearly
all the other DANES in our town.
They vote Ike she says, which is
never the right way, my old man
says.
So this Frank shooes himself in
with Carrie Cluny, and makes love
to her, the idea being that after she
gets in love with him he will have
her swing the female vote TO the
democrats.

Well. of course. all the lads around
town are hep TO the scheme, my
old man says, but nobody says any
thing about 1t at home for fear the
other DANES will start knocking il,
not understanding practical politics.
and there is heavy betting in the
saloons and other places that this
Frank will win, because everybody
knows. my old man says that he
has a terrible power over women.
Well. he goes around everywhere
with Carrie Cluny. my old man says
taking her to the theater, and put
ting the old feed bag on her in
swell points and sending her flow
ers. and candy, and all such as that
and hanging over her gate when
he ought to be home in the feath-
ers getting his rest, and acting gen
orally. my old man saws. like any
! other sap who is daffy about a
dame.
Then just when il looks as II the
work is in, what does this Frank
do. my old man says, but get stuck
on Carrie Cluny himself and haul off
and marry her
The next thing anybody knows, he
is around playing square guy and
1 voting the republican ticket and
boosting for reform, and all such as
that and my old man says one IF
the most promising careers in prac-
teal politics he ever sees is plumb
ruined.

RESURRECTION

Grieve not, dear heart, the buried
 hope
 You think lies dead, but silent
 sleeps Upon a distant sunlight slope, Where constant guard an angel
 keeps! List now! Once more the liquid
 notes
 Of silvery song in field and
 wood From all the little feather throats Proclaim anew, "To live is good! For all that's good shall live again" Somewhere a hidden calyx holds Eacn tiny bud of hope and then Sometime with promise 1t unfolds' Yes. Immortality is only this 4 touch Divine; a whispered
 breath, .... Like that of springtime's gentle
 kiss. ..... ..... ..... And life Eternal is the bloom of
 death!

STRING TIME AND
 CITY ELECTION SYM
 ONYMOUs IN sKAGWAY

The municipal election in Skag- way is 8 good deal like spring. It just slips around at 3 stated time, and We take it for granted. Spring comes on quietly, end as the buds break forth and the balmy days dawn upon us we take oQ new life and are content. When the names os the candidates who would gov era our civic affairs are announced we accept them as being good,. ana vot~ these men into office confident in our knowledge that they will ad- minister the affairs of our city in a business like, economical and disni- fled manner. ?. ..-,.
 Councilmen Hardy, Alex Blaneh- ard and James Kennedy, elected last spring. will be hold overs in the city council for the coming year.
 Messrs.. Selmer, Batson and Blunt tng have served their one year term as councilmen for which they were elected. It is understood, however, that two of them will again be nominated
 Mayor Howard Ashley has served his term, and a mayor will be elect e' this spring to I'll this position.
 As Mir, Ashley has filled the po- sIticn in a painstaking manner, 1t Is hoped that ba may be prevailed upon to again make the run for Mayor of Skagway
 It Is highly probably that some of Skagway's prominent women will bs nominated to make the run for the vacancy of school clerk.
 Tonight there will be a mass meeting of the Citizens party for the purpose of selecting the men who are to make the race and as there has been no call from any othe nominating convention, it is quite probable that there will be no Op- position.
 Under the new law the municipal polio magistrate and town treas urer Is elected by the voters, and as he present incumbent, Phil Abra- name has filled the dual office with satisfaction, 1t is to be hop ed tha: there will be no opposition tc his candidacy, and that he may be retained in this responsible DO sition...
 The position Of town clerk will also te filled by choice of the people and as Dan Mckay positive ly declines to again be a candidate, and as the office requires a man whE 1 Is familiar with clerical work, it is to be hoped that a wise selection s made in the naming cf nominee.

-sr VI ..N N.r f.. - .rE-.-H -l-N MONUMENT FOR BUFFALO
 BILL IS NOW ASSURED

Denver, Colo, Mar. 30-Hgb up Cu Lookout Mountain, near here, overlooking the four states which witnessed his greatest activity, a monument to Colonel William F. Cody-Buffalo Bill-low seems ss- sured, according to announcement q the Cody Memorial Association The association says that several other organizations already have uI- Gertakep the collection of funds for tha monument.
 The spot on the mountain top where the famous plainsman Is to find his last resting place has al- ready been approved by the family. This approval has stimulated the coordina'ion of all efforts to ob- 'ain a sufficient fund to construct 9 monument worthy of the scout who helped to open up the vast territory west of the Mississippi riy- CT.
 The formal burial ceremonies will take place on next Memorial Day, when the body will be borne from here to the rock-hewn tomb on top of the mountain 1t will be buried with the full ritualistie service by tbe Knights Templar.
 The proposed monument, accord ing to tentative plans, is to be cut out os solid granite hewn from the formatin on Lookout mountain. It is to conform to the painting of tte late scout by the artist Pauua- cini. This shows Colonel Cody on the beloved white charger, scanning the horizon, the hand uplifted, the body slightly bent forward. .
 It is proposed to place the monu- meDt so that the figure seems to be locking out over the vast stretches of plains into the four states of Colorado, Wyoming, Nebraska and Eansas which witnessed most if not all ef Buffalo Bills exploits. On a cear day spectators are able to recognize objects in all four states.

Notwithstanding the fact that all the magazines and newspapers throughoue the world have made ap peal after appeal for help to raise funds with which to buy food and supplies for poor war torn and down trodden Belgium, more is needed. Never, perhaps in the his tory of the world have such huge sums of money been donated for charity in a same length of time, but it has not been enough. The people of Belgium are starving. They are suffering for want of every necessity of life. They are desti' ute. The fathers and broth CTS and husbands have been taken away from their labors, and the country is devastated. It is as though wind, and water and fire have swept over it, leaving nothing ut ruiz and starvation. It is the children that appeal to us. The lit He helpless waits, without home or guardian parent. They are out casts nu a cruel war torn world.
 Tonight, the children of SkagTay are to do their mite towards ale- Yiatins the sufferings of the little ones away across the sea. It may not D ca great amount of money these children will raise, but what ever the amount is, however small i. may be, it will be sufficient to keep some one baby or perhaps a sccrs os babies from suffering the panPs of hunger for 8 few short days.
 1t is the spirit of effort of the children that we should recognize. We should aid them with our mite a their entertainment tonight, and encourage them in their humani- tarian work. Just remember that j. is an unselfish move on their oar They need a library at their scLoOl. They need additional paraphernalia for theih manual training nd domestic science studies, but tnese have all been forgotten in their desire to give to the little cnes who are suffering for want of . crust Of bread
 Come on out tonight. Crowd the l'ttl nall so that the sign stand ing room only may be posted, and when the little tots sing the clos ing sons, ''Is There Any Better Country Than The U. s. A." let them know that this better coun- try is peopled by generous hearted anf sympathetic men and women.
 You may be thinking of various and sundry things this day, but there are some little girls and boys who are so wrapped up in the good work they are to do this night that all the world is bright ana cheery. The sun is shining 8 little brighter, and the air is just a little moro exhilarating to these little folk today because they are going to raise some money tonight by their very own efforts which gilb be sent away off to Belgium where is will be used to buy food for
