is our hired man?
It is hy our order expressed at
the polls that he is in Washington.
?When he quits it mill he tirae^
enough for us to quit and discharge

??-re ever entrusted with a hul

If it would be a disgrace for
Wickersham to quit, would it not
be a multiplied disgrace for us to
?juit him and lose everything that
we have been fighting for?
Think of this Mr. Voter. We

itself to whether you love Alaska

The long valiant fight made by
Delegate J?rnes ?Vickersham for ac
tion on the Alaska Territorial gov
ernment bill is to end in Tlctory at
this session. After getting his
measure through the House, Mr.
Wickersham labored with members
of the Senate Committee on Ter
ritories until they agreed in favor
of disposing of It at this session.
Senator Jones of Washington has
proven a worthy ally.
At the time an agreement was
reached for a vote on the tariff
bills. Senator Jones forced a virtual
agreement that the Alaska bill
should be disposed of before the
session closed. He did this by
threatening to raise an objection to
the unanimous consent vfeement :
over the vote on the tariff meas- 1
ures. This forced Senator Warren,
whose power as chairman of the
Appropriations Committee is per
haps greater than that of any other j
member of the Senate, to agree to ;
join with Senator Jones in secnrlnp
early action on the Alaska bill
Senator Smith, Chairman of the
Territories Committee having thf
Alaska bill in charge, also promis
ed to bring It up before adjourn
ment.
The agreement was practically
signed and sealed when Senator
Jones closed discussion by saying:
"I know that Senator Smith
very anxious to have the Alaska
government bill considered, and he
Is using every effort to that end.
1 am going to insist, so far as I am
concerned, that the Senate take ac
tion upon It."
Monday evening a few minutes
after six o clock the big gasoline
schooner Chlopeck No. 8 caught
fire at her moorings at the city
wharf, IVmglas, and before the fire
could be extinguished the boat had
to be scuttled in several feel of
water. Damage to the amount of
about $500 ?m entailed.
Krnml Hayes, a two-year old boy
living In Juneau, pounded a dyna
mite cap with a hammer at noon
Friday and when the dangerous
loy exploded all of the fingers on
hia right hand were blown off and
his face was badly burned and cut.
The little fellow was taken to the
government hospital.
