STABILITY OMLY IN BELF-GOV.
ernment
A favorite expression of Alaskan
tories is, "O, I believe in self-govern
ment. I think Alaaka should have a
territorial form of government? when
the proper time comes. But first get a
? table population."
Alaska will never have a more stable
population than it now has until the J
people who come here can come, as
came the millions across the Alleghan
ies, the Mississippi and the Rockies,
with the knowledge that the country
and the government is theirs. The
idea of building up a itable American
community in a country governed from
without by thjse having a -pull" at
the national capital, is reuiculom. To
think men would call '"home" a com
muntt.v where taxes ?re levied and ex
pended by those who arrange the
matters without the advice or consent
of the people is not to think of those
men as desirable Americans. A man who
looks with complacency upon casting
his lot with a country where the gov
ernment is arranged, by self-appointed
selectmen, at back office meetings or
around a table at some social club or
saloon would not make a good citizen
under anv circumstance. As long as
it shall not be necessary to appeal to
the people of a country for the final de
cision in matters of government ? the
leyying of taxes, the expenditure of the
same, the conduct of the schools and all
tae other multitudinous details ? as
long as a "good-fellow" has more in
fluence in a community than the mass
es of those who are doing the develop
ment, so long will men scorn to
call that country home.
The thing today that makes
Alasia fit for Americans to live ia is
the fact that they can fight for a
change in their government. Stop the
contention of the Alaskan people for
their rights as Americans and make
tories of the majority of the population j
and that minute Alaska will not be a
fit country for any man to call home.
When Thomas Cale said that, living
in a community not having self-govern
ment, the moment It ceased to aspire
for it he would cease to desire it as a
living place, he voiced the sentiment
of every man, woman or child worthy
to be called Americans.
Give the Alaskan people self-govern
ment and you will tie them to the
country as would oe possible in no other
way.
MAKING INTERNATIONAL LAW
If the president of Venezuela sur
renders the Cuban banker who is in
Caracas to Gov. Magoon upon the
latter's request, President Roosevelt's
admistration will have another rule of
international law well under way to
ward adoption. If the rule shall become
generally in use it will be possible for
a country to recover ? fugitive from
justice from a country with which it
has no extradition treaty.
However, this new international law
is likely to meet its first snag in the
United States. For instance, suppose
a fugitive from justice from a country
with which we have no extradition
treaty should be apprehended in the
United States and enlist the habeas
corpus in his behalf. Of what avail
would be willingness on the part of the
president to surrender him ? The plan
would work admirably in those
countries where the executive is su
preme, but it will not jioe in the
United States except where the pri?on
er might be willing, unless all the
states shall legislate so as to giye it
force and effect.
