A good many mossbacks claim

MOines Regiser, is a democrat: now
here comes the Corydon Republican
and says that Late Young, Of the
Capital, is not a republican. Con

APPROACHING THE CLIMAX.

According to the lessons that we
derive from history, of our own
country and of past ages-signifi-
cantly, Rome, Carthage, Greece,
Great Britain-the social and
economic confusion now prevailing
in the world is fast approaching a
climax. TO complete the panoply
and tragedy of this vast world event
there remain to be enacted the vio-
lent ebullitiOns or outbreaks, the
clashes with orderly government, the
forcible suppressions of insurgency,
and the lapse into dull despair on
TIE part of those idealists who i'm
agine they see in this diurnal round
of human events the emancipation
and exaltation of the wage slave.
Following this collapse, which is due
upon us this very hour. bu. which
nay be slightly deferred, the dollar
an-hour nonsense will have to give
way to state where the man with
the dollar bill will wish and demand
to see something tangible coming
back for his outlay-otherwise will
keep his pocketbook buttoned up.
What we all are witness to now is
the destruction by violence and folly
of conditions that might have been
continued indefinitely with great
profit to all.-Burlington Post.

PAINTING OF MT. M'KINLEY
 IS UNVEILED

A burst of applause resounded through the Empress theater last night as the light was directed to the center of the stage for the unveiling and first exhibition to the public of the new painting by Sidney Laurence of Mount Mckinley"
 Like a window looking to the heav- ems, all eyes were directed to this masterpiece of the painters art. In a compass of but five by seven feet Is spread out by the hand of man an ex- panse so vast as to baffle all idea of existence. Under a sky of unparal- leled transparency is distinguished the enchanting, eternally snow-crowned profile of the king of American peaks, dominating, though miles away, the entire composition. As the eye low CTS, the vision rests upon sea of lesser peaks which stand in valiant loyalty and awe as the guards and vassals of "Denali." Down the sides pour glaciers, scintillating with na- tures gems, forming silver ribbons of rivers as far as the eye can see. WeI have reached the foothills and behold a majestic waterfall emptying into a deep canyon. The sound of the fall ing torrent is almost distinguishable as it rushes through the great gorge to the right A bald-headed eagle soaring above the cataract enhances the illusion of space. The foreground is composed fo a rough and rugged wilderness of rock and gnarled trees. Conspicuous is a storm-torn and aged tree trunk, we'll knowing that it's days are numbered, to the end waving it's worn-out branches in faithful homage.
 Mr. Laurence, we congratulate you. Alaska's beauty is next to it's great est possession. It's greatest posses sion is the old "sourdough.". You are one by choice. Here's our hand. We appreciate you and are proud of you. We defy anyone to paint mountains any better than you do You have put your honorable mentions" ribbons and medals in an old sock and thrown them in a corner; your genius you have not prostituted. You have given it to us and to our country. You have thrown yourself on the bosom of the grandest and best land of Gods earth.

ROUTINE BUSINESS
 IS TRANSACTED AT
 MEETING OF COUNCIL

At last nights meeting of the city council the system and instructions of the Alaska Public Utilities when an alarm of fire is turned in were ex- plained by Councilman Brock. The telephone operators are to first give the alarm with the siren and to dis regard all telephone calls except those coming from the two fire houses, so that the fire department will be enabled to find out the location of the fire without delay. Red lights, instead of white, are displayed when a call comes from the fire houses, in order to expedite the answering of the call. The need of some means of notifica- tion to firemen who might be attend ing the show was discussed and was left to the fire committee to work out with Captain Lathrop.
 An ordinance amending Section of Ordinance No. 35 was introduced and read, and on motion was ordered laid on the table until the next meet ing of the council.

H. Foster notified the council that H. B. Wolking had similar petition to pre- sent to the road commission at Val dez, as the building of the road was under their jurisdiction.
