NOT SERIOUS
1 omplaining because of the harsh
criticism Alaskan paptrs sail citizen*
bare bestowed upon upon some of the
high officials in this District, the Ju
Record Miner says
"The people should demand that the
high office of governor or a judge on
the bencb, or in fact an; position of
trust, should receive the protection of
?ocietT. This is one of the leading
reforms that should be instituted in
modern Alaska and the people should
inaugurate it at once."
No, it is not as serious as that.
While the blatherskite, "ho makes
perniciuous charges of graft and other
crimes against officials and citizens
without higher purpose than to deceive,
that a sinister ambition might be
?erred thereby, or any other bssis for
his charges than that provided by a
dtce&sed mind anj corrupted soul
which ;udges others by themselves, is
reprehensible in the extreraest degree,
no matter [the standpoint from which
vewed, in the long run Jhe hurts none
so much as himself. The official or
citizen? or newspaperman, for that
matter ? who fearlessly performs his
duly has nothing to fesr
Let high officials and low t>e true to
their trusts and the people, let them
tell the truth and serve efficiently, let
them move with becoming rectitude,
and this matter of public opinion will
adjust itself. Then will detainers be
come known for what they are. While
there are exceptions, no doubt, in tbe 1
sraneral it is only truth that survives. I
But. perhaps that is what is troubling j
tbe Juneau paper: It ma< be that
some one is telling truths that hurt j

S.OU
HUGO AT f CHANGES FRONT
Uov. Hoggatt (ailed to maka an im
pression ^when he intimated that the
movement for territorial government
iu Alaa*a ii confined Ivgeiy to aalooo
nen who desire dresser liberties in the
conduct of their business. Now. if he
:s correctly quoted, it it apparent that
he 11 trying to collect the ."greater
liberty' people under his banner.
It is quite evident <"K>v Hoggatt
cares little about Alaskan .ocal matters
?o long *s the corporation lobby is per
mitted to continue in charge of legis
lation for the district. His chief aim is
to prevent the people from getting
control of their /overnmect, and he
will work with whichever element of
society that will best 3erve his purpose.
Gov. Hoggatt's as-ertion that the
"lid question' :s local in its nature and
one in which the federal government
will tace no part if :i??ed on fact, dis
poses af his contention that the people
waci self-goveromeat that they might
pull off a "ii i" aeceosion. We must
conclude that if the agitation for terri
torial government cont.nufs Gov. Ho?
gatt will try to explain it in some other
wav thin the one adopted in his cele
brated le'ter to the president.
The Seattle Post- intelligencer is
taking a poll of its readers a- to what
should be done with President Koose
velt at 'he expiration of bis term of
office. While the senate, the Panama
cana. and the interstate commerce com
mission are all popular in the public
mind as iields for h:s activates by far
the greater number favor his election
to the presidency for a third term.
The deatn the other day of Augnst
Beaubein, the first white child to be
born in Chicago, recalls with startling
clearness the rapidity of the growth of
American cities. From a wilderness
of prairie and swamp lands to a oity of
two and a half millions in one life time,
is a record that seems incredible.
Senator Rayner. of Maryland, says
Bryan will be nominated by the Dem
ocrats by acclamation and though be
was a gold standard Democrat in 1396,
he says he will support him with the
greatest | sincerity. He says Vice
Preaident Fairbanks will be the Repub
lican nominee unless the signs fail.
Mr. Harriman says that hereafter he
will ''give more attention to the
publie." Well, he is not likely to givt
much of anything e'.w It is tha public
that material things when
deals with Mr. Harriroan.
The Daily Alaskan yesterday referrr I
to "the recently passed law making
gambling a felony in 'Alaska'.'' It
should have read "Texas."'
MONUMENT
FOR VICTIMS
The employes of the water division
of the White Pass will erect a monu
ment at Whitehorse in honor of those
killed in the explosion of the Yukon
steataer Columbian last September.
The monument will be made of rel
Scotch granite *ud will stand about
feet high and be a magnificent samp! -
of the stonecutter's art, when com
pleted will bear the following inscrip

"To the memory of J. \V. Welsh, 1 t

Katohlkao Has Bis Fleet
It is perfectly safe to assert that
Ketchikan's mosquito fleet is larger
than that of auy other port in Alaska
The wonder is where all the boats come
