NEED OF EDUCATION APPAR
ENT
In discussing the question of territor
ial government the Jiinean Record
Miner says:
"None of the territories were orga
nized when the only communication be
tween towns was by water, nor when a
railroad in actual operation for any dis
tance was practically unknown.
Transportation facilities in the western
territories were meagre but they were
not oonfiatd to cog teams in the winter
and boats in the summer. Roads were
common, transcontinental railroads
were bringing in settlers free of
charge. Person* were able to move j
in any direction without restraint and J
with rapidity. How different is the|
situation here. It takes six days to go
i'lO miles from Valdez to Fairbanks un
der the most favoraole conditions. At
this season of the year it takes a month
to go from Juneau to Nome. All other
distances are covered in corresponding
Urae."
There is no'duubt about the Deed of
that education for which the Record
Miner has been beting. We suggest
that it take its first lesion io L'uited
States history. It co.ild probably bor
row the use of some fifth grade boy io
the Juneau pu )lic school with his little
history to start with. After studying
for an hour or so it would discover that
it was a fortunate territory that had
the meat* of water transportation at
the time of its organization.
If the Record Miner will look deeply
ecough into American history it will r
discover true tales of members of }
legislatures maiv.pg their way for weeks
at a time on the hurricane decks of cay
uses. over tre- less plains, through
dense fores: . across swolleQ rivers
and amidst warrirg tribes of Indians,
from :h. r l.oxt- to territorial capitals.
It would learn that i: took the member
of the bouse of representatives from
Stevens county. Washington, for in
stance. s:^ weeks to reach <">iympia be
fore 1j60. and that he would havej
counted a :-:>eU lucky had he been en
sb'etl to make the ournev behind a
team of malazaute dogs ?:th comfort
able n)a<) houses to stay in at eight.
The territory of the United States
:nat had a ringe mile of railway track
within its borders at the time of its or
ganisation i? the exception. Most of|
those which were organized after th?
invention of railroads hud r.one within!
l.OOo miles of their bouuderie*. They
were organized when the idea ot a trans
continental rai'road was but the |
tantastic fancy of a tlreamrr.
The Rtco: .-Miner has disqualified it
self to participate in a campaign of edu
cation on the question of tetritorial
g overnment except as a pupil in a prim
ary class.
The present Washington state legis
lature is doing its be? to entertain is*
self at Oivmpia without the wheel and
tin box. Olympia has been a closed
town for sometime, but a quiet attempt
was made to open the "games" just for
the winter. It was srutTed out. The
prosecuting attorney of Thurston coun
ty said he would have none of it. The
senators and representatives, therefore,
are extricting all the fun they can out
of that old North American game
wherein five are moat to ^set and
draw."
