The resurrection of an uninforced
registrat ion ordinance in the files of
the office of the clerk of the city of
Skagway was mute evidence of the fact
that former Ska way city attorneys re
garded such an ordinance as a dead let
ter in view of the laws of congress.
Lawyers are igreed that, without hav
ing been granted specific authority to
do so, the city council cannot require
more rigid qualifications of an elector
than those specified by congress. Un
til some duly authorized legislative
body shall enact a registration law for
Alaska or confer power so to do upon
the city council, a registration ordi
nance can only make more complicated
the election machinery and municipal
government more expensive. Nothing
?!se can be accomplished by one.*
The prompt measures taken by the
city council to protect the city against
invasion by contagious diseases will
meet with the approval of the people.

the ereat Scotch game in his Jair and
is now the world's champion.
Now that war news from the front is
scarce it ia time to look for Jstories of
Russian victories from St. Petersburg
and Paris.

ing the trip from Seattle in a little
more than three anil a half days. She

TO FIX IT
City Will Improve State
Street
The city council decided last night to
improve State street its whole length.
The city funds contain 41100 in the
street fund and the committee on pub
lic works and public property has been
directed to use the money to remove
the stumps and otnerwise improve this
central thoroughfare from the business
center to the shops, reporting progress
at each meeting of the council.
RAISE HER
Leah Again in 8<-r?ice ou
the Yukon
The Northern Commercial Company's
steamer Leah, which sank at Cliff
creek some time ago and was finally
raised, has arrived at Dawson under
her own steam.
The hull of the Leah is in good con
dit:on. and the vessel will not have to
be put on the ways for repairs. All r -
pairs necessary to the hull were made
when the vessel was lifted from the
water.
The upper works of the Leah are
damaged to some extent, and the vessel
is not as tidy and neat us in her anti
baptismul days, but she is none the less
serviceable.
Lioanne Tax I* Laeal

States has affirmed the decision of
Judge Brown In C. E. Wynn-Johnson

Ti-e cases involved the Alaska license
law. The lower court held the law to
be constitutional, and it has been af
firmed.
