SUPPORT THE CITY COUNCIL.
The people of Juneau elected seven good men to serve them on
the city council yesterday and they haye re-elected a member of
the school board who has rendered valuable service in the past.
The municipal and school affairs are in good and safe hands. It
is now the civic duty of every citizen in the community to give
those they have chosen to office the support that they will need
in the performance of their duties. These men have undertaken
the task of serving the people without price as a matter of public
spirit. That they will give the public the best service of which
they are capable none doubts. The least the public can do is to
aid them in every way possible to get the best results for our
city. Juneau is at the beginning of an era of prosperity such as
Southeastern Alaska has never before witnessed. The hour for
which many have waited is at hand. To make the most of it
requires that there be team work all along the line, and it is up
to every citizen to do his part.
It is "Prof." Ta people will hardly be expected
to think of it that ^ oeen difficult enough to get used
to "Col." Rooseve. will probably continue to say "Mr.'
Toft.

ALASKA LEGISLATURE WILL BE AGAINST WHITE SLAVE
TRAFFIC
The evident disposition of the Alaska Legislature to pass a
stringent white slave law is pleasing to good citizens. The
people of the United States have set the seal of their dis
approval on the traffc in human beings. They have determined
to put an end to the business of selling women. Those lowest of
humans, the procurers and the men who live from the profits of;
women's shame, must go. That it is the purpose of the Alaska
Legislature to put Alaska in line with the other states and terri
tories that are making this fight for decency is plain, and it will
merit the praise that it will receive for doing its duty.
As was predicted, the fall of Adrianople was followed quick
ly by Turkey's begging for peace at any price that would save
Constantinople.
As for the West, at least. Franklin K. Lane is just now tht
most popular claimant for the distinction of being the "Man 01
the Hour."
"JEFFERSON SIMPLICITY" AT WASHINGTON
4 4 T effersonian Simplicity" are not merely words having a Dem
J ocratic sound with the new administration. President Wil
son has inaugurated a method of directness in the perform
ance of his duties and in his contact with the people of the Na
tion that is well described by that trite Democratic shiboleth.
Speaking of some of the new customs that have been inaugurat
ed by the President, the New York World says:
"President Wilson will try to get along without a military
aide who has been the faithful shadow of the last two Presidents.
His box at the opera or theatre will not be draped with the nation
al colors. The military staff of the White House has been re
duced.
"Mr. Roosevelt's fondness for the spectacular developed
about the White House the appearance of a third-rate German
court. Like John Adams, he had a keen eye to show and color
and form for the impression that high public office might make
upon the people. And so there gradually developed about the
people's Chief Executive the trappings that surround the army's
Chief of Staff.
"That this should be disagreeable to a man of Mr. Wilson's
democratic tastes and essentially civilian character was to be
expected."
And yesterday the President announced that he will talk to
the newspapermen of the country directly and in the first person.
A day or two before it was learned that he will pay for his
theatre tickets, and not accept passess to anything. The "Pres
idents yacht" has been discarded. He will act like a plain Amer
ican citizen whenever that is possible. Verily, "Jefferson Sim
plicity" is here.
The eight-hour law that passed the Senate yesterday was
so amended before its passage that it requires men to work full
eight hours. That means, under the terms of the bill, the change
of shifts will take place at the face of the mine where actual
work is being performed and the laborers' time will begin there.
It was also amended so that in case of an emergency in placer
districts a man may work longer than eight hours, and this was
defined to mean that where there is danger that the shortage of
water might result in damage to an operator an emergency will
be construed to exist that will permit him to work longer than
eight hours and make use of all the water that might be avail
able day or night.
The frightful frequency of fatal accidents to those Mexicans
who disagree with President Huerta is something wonderful. If
the Mexican insurgents are not being assassinated they are the
most unlucky mortals among men.
The municipal election is over. Let us now close up the ranks
and all work together for JUNEAU.
