The reception given Hon. Thomas
Cele last night, under the auspices o
the Sk&gway camp of the Arctic Hroth
taood. was a ver\ happy affair, one that
was to the cred't of the creat northern
order. It ga\e the people of Skifw
an opportunity not not only to rio hom
age to the principles lor which
their representative in congress stands,
to give him additional assurance that
'he possesspg >hfir confidence and
I esteem, but an opportunity to become
acquainted with Thorna* Cale. the man,
aDd to show him that they are his
firm friends. There wa^ a good at
tendance and every thine went off
smoothly snd in a spirit of gnodfeilow
ship. The feature of it all. however,
j was the speech made by Mr, ("ale in.
Insponse to the presentation of the
[ gold-pan souvenir hy the Arctic Hrotb
[erhood. through .V!. S Whittier. the
Arctic Chief
The hall was filled when Mr. Whit
tier called the assemblage to order and
in a very happy speech ptesented Mr
i'alewiih an enlsrged emblem of the
Arctic Brotherhood order, a mjMiI si iter

the solid gold letters. \ B. and three'

Mr. tale spoke at aome length.
After expressing his pleasure in the
reception the people of this city had
accorded him and hi? appreciation of
t heir friendship ar 1 support. he ?pok?
at wmf leogth on Alaskan questions.
He said that he stood squareiy upon
the platform upon which hp was elect
ed a* a delegate to congress He said
1 if the iate election proved anything U
demonstrate) that the time is past
in Alaska when a few self-appointed
guardians of the people could meet
around a table ?nd dictate to the men
ard women who are developing this
district, producing it? great riches aod
building homes in it. There is no
room, he asys, for the man who plays
at practical politic
"Territorial government.' said Mr
< 'ale, "standi nearest the heart of
every true American in the north and
it offers the perfect solutir.n of Alaska's
legislatve p:-ob!ems " He says that we
have only truly representative govern
ment when we can have the advantage
m our legislature of the w:sdom and
experience of those of all cusses, ai!
sections and all avocations.
Nlr. ("ale suggested that the form of
the territorial government to secure
which ?e must d reel our greatest
e!fnrl? was a matter that rnu?t !*> figur
ed out. Kven this, he thought, should
be worked out Ift the |>eople concerned,
and be suggested thai ther. tie a con
vention next ye?r? thoroughly repre
sentative of all portions of Alaska
held at wire convenient plac? where
the detail* of the government could be
threshed out and a bill in ail its details
aeree?l upon.
jThe ltnpre??ion made by |\lr. 1 ale
was one of unanimous approval
After l he reception there was a pieas
ant dance which was enjoyed until
