k'Shel]g'tmcw Jackson's Dep
uty Relieves Himself
hi an article, appearing in the Ketch
ikan Journal, opposing territorial gov
ernment (or Alaska, W. A. Kelly, dep
uty of Sheldon Jackson, superintendent
of education for Alaska, advances the
following arguments? to sustain his
position:
"Alaska is far from the seat of gov
ernme. t and means of communication
with portions of the district are slow
and infrequent. ? ? ? ?'>
''The influence for an Alaskan fair at '
Seattle in 1H0T is i rima facia evidence 1
that Alaska is unprepared to hold elec
tions or maintain territorial govern
ment. * * * *"
"If we hid a territorial legislature
members from Nome and Fairbanks
could not reach it without going out of
the district. * * *"
"The desire for territorial govern
$ ment comes from democrats, saloon pol
iticians and lawyers with few clients."
* * * They urge it that "itching
palms may hold ortice and subsist on
the people's money."
"Most property owners, miners and
business men of Alaska are opposed to
territorial form of government."
Under territorial government the
"legislature would be democratic" in
politics ai)d thus "represent the dissaf
fected, restless, itenerant element of so
siety "
"The general laws enacted by con
gress are good enough and devoid of
local color and business men are better
safe-guarded than tDey would be by
territorial laws enacted by men who
are not law-makers. * * *" Our
legislature would not be composed of
honest miners, merchants and property
owners These men could not afford to '
leave their homes and business for six
months each year to attend sessions of j
the legislature."
"If we are to have one I favor an ap- ;
pomtive delegate, for then we could ex
pect a clean man and a republican."
"There are many foreigners in Alas
ka. a few of whom have declared their
intentions to become citizens. Knglish
men, you know, are always democrats."
* * * "Besides, the question is not i
so much what we really wish as it is i
what w i really need."
"There has been criticism and fault
finding with the federal government |
and with congress regarding Alaska.!
but reasonable men know that the de- '
partraents at Washington have done
much to aid in the development of
Alaska."
Fo'lowing the foregoing, Mr. Kelly
enumerates what h s been done for
Alaska in the wav of affording postof
fice facilities, the prosecution of the
work of the geological and geodetic
surveys, the establishment of signal
and agricultural experimental stations,
the extension of >he mining and home
stead Uws, the bui'ding of army posts,
the alignment of revenue cutters to
Alaskan waters and other things that
are done by congress for all -actions of
the Uni'.ed States and Americ n pos
s ss oqs rresp c ive of whether they
are -tutrs, terri ori< s or simply posses
sions. or ' crown colonies"if you please.
Kelly ter lioates his article by sayi g
' I beiieve we can safe y trust "Uncle
Jo-r" I'aunon and Cncle Sun to deal
liberally with A'aska."
HAIR NATURALLY ABUNDANT.
Wkcn It la Frtf of Dandruff, It Grom
Luxuriantly.
Kalr preparations and dandruff cures,
as a rule, are sticky or Irritating affairs
that do no earthly good. Hair, when not
^ diseased, grows naturally, luxuriantly.
Dandruff Is the causa of nine-tenths of
all hair trouble, and dandruff Is caused
by a germ. Th? only way to cure dand
ruff is to kill the germ; and. so far. the
only hair preparation that will positively
destroy the serm is Newbro's Herpicido ?

sediment, dye matter or dangerous drugs.

Paradise
The Dawson News quotes a recent
arrival at Dawson from the Alsek coun
try as saying that that region excels as
a paradise (or game.
'?Sheep in particu'ar are numerous
in that country, says the arrival. On
one of the creeks we saw as high as 300
sheep at one time. It was a magnifi
cent sight. We shot but few of the no
ble fellows. We had no use for them,
and it would have been wanton slaugh
ter, and, after all, we were there look
ing for gold more than for sheep or
other game.
"Mountain sheep are numerous all
alone the range of mountains immedi
ately back of the coast. It is well
known that frequently sheep were seen
and killed on the high peaks in the vicin
ity of Skagwav, and often killed along
the route of the White Pass railway in
earlier days.
"In the Alsek country and beyond we
saw bears every day or two, and some
times would see several In one day.
Most of them were bl >ck bears, but oc
casionally there would be a grizzly or
some other species.
''Fourth of July creek was the best
producing creek in the district this
summer."
