Since the foundation at Skagway it (

.s, vacant lots, alleys and
.onted streets during the winter,
ae time is nearly here, when, if the
rerr commendable custom is to be con
tinued, preparations should be made for
its observance. Of course this year
the annual clean up cannot be on May
1, as that day will be a Sunday, but
May 2 or April 30 could be substituted.
Many tories are rejoicing because the
people of Alaska are not to be permit
ted to elect a delegate In congress.
They would prefer that the president
appoint a delegate. The average tory i
may not be as ."foolish as he seems and <
looks. He understands, apparently, J
that if the people of Alaska had the
?election of a representative at the na
tional capital, the representative would a
not be a tory, and if the^people were em
powered to name a delegate to con
gress it would be a hard blow to the
tory lobby at Washington.
The Massachusetts republican con- a
vent ion. under the leadership of Sena
tor Lodge, decided against Canadian
reciprocity, but not without a contest.
In the course of the debate which pre
Ceded the vote the leaders among those
who asked for reciprocity freely pre
dicted that persistence in the policy
advocated by Se .ator Lodge would a'
make Massachusetts ademocratic state. a|
Those people who became frightened
when Jim Hill threatened toquit fight
ing the battles for the northwest in the at
?vent of Harriman beating him out for
the control of the Northern Pacific can
take heart. Hili won the first round in
New York yesterday.

The school board will choose teach
era tor the coming year rnthowt wall
ing tor the board that wilj be electet
in June. This was decided upon ai
the last meeting of the board. The
election will pro baby take place early
in May.
The action of tW board in coming to
a decision to select teachers at an ear
ly date wil1. cause no surprise, as it has
been under consideration for a lontr
time The board determined long ago
that It would be for the good of the ser
vice to so act, but delayed because It
did not desire to be understood as
usurping the dutiee of the board that
will come in July 1. The matter
was delayed that any objection to the
board's acting might be made known,
but do one objected, so the board at
last determined to take the bit in its
teeth and to settle a matter that it be
lieved to be for the benefit of the citT.
