DILEMMA SUGGESTS HOME
RULE. OF COURSE
The word comes from the interior
that there is much di*cusaion as to the
detail! of the mining and other laws
that Alaska's newly elected delegates
to oongress will be asked to urge upon
the attention of congress. So many
different and conflicting suggestions
have been made that it is suggested
that a convention be held at Fairbanks
to which Nome will be asked to send
representative* Of course this has
caused many miners to suggest that
there will never be satisfactory laws
for the regulation of mining or any
other Alaskan matter 'until they shall
have been made by an Alaskan legisla
ture.
That is the solution of the whole
matter. The shortest cut to good min
ing laws for Alaska is through terri
torial government. Give us a legisla
ture in which there will be Alaskan
miners, a few conscientious lawyers,
business men of experience and those
representing the people of all callings
and all sections and we might hope to
get laws that are satisfactory. We will
also have in our hands the means of
changing laws as experience and time
shall indicate that changes are neces
sary.
If Mr. Waskey and Mr. Cale shall be
able to get an Alaskan legislature they
will have done more for the Alaskan
miner* and their territory generally
than they could hope to do in any other
way

Juneau papers are indulging in heat
ed arguments over whether we should
ui "Alaska for Alaskans" or "Alas
ana for Alaska." It is immaterial what
the cry so long as our law*, are made by
representatives jf Vermont, Pennsyl
vania, Illinois. Minnesota, Washington
and other states, and our government
is directed from the national capital
over there on the Atlantic seaboard.
Alaskan* cannot be effective forces for
Alaska, nor can Alaska be for Alsskan*
unless Alaskans be given contiol of
their own affair*.
The democrat* at Seattle arc having
a hard time of it. One after another
of these whom they have nominated for
office have withdrawn until, at last ac
counts, there were ten vacant places on
their ticket.
New York state will be given a taste
of resl. strenuous politics for the next
month. It is safe to say that never
since the close of the war ha* their
been a state political campaign in an
off year where so large a portion of the
people have been interested as will be
the case in New York state before the
cioae of the present month.
