ALASKA PROVES CAPAC1TT
The manner in which the people of
Alaska govern their municipalities is
complete evidence of their capacity to
manage their own affairs. There i9
not a town in the district which has
exercised one-half of the taxing power
that congress has vested in it> nor is
there a town in the district that is
financially involved at all. Several of
them have overflowing treasuries and
absolutely no debt. All of them have
good, well equipped fire departments
and excellent schools and school build
Vngs.
In short, the raunicipalties of Alaska
are living demonstrations of the
capacity of the people to govern them
themselves. From day to day, for 365
days in each year, the men and women
who live in Alaska all the year round
are showing that they have full
appreciation of the responsibilities of
selfgoverntnent and that they understand
their needs far better than do those
who are juggling railroad franchises
and subsidies before congress or those
who are betting on the price of
Alaskan mines and fish products in the
hotel lobbies and offices of southern
cities.
President Koosevelt. with irony be
coming to the occasion, has called the
bluff of Senator toralser in the matter
of the Brownsville controversy. Sen
ator Foraker in the course of the
Brownsville debate prcc'aimed such
undying affection for his colored
brother that President Roostvelt has
appointed a negro to the important
office af surveyor of customs at Cincin
nati. Senator Foraker has objected to
proposed negro appointments in his
state before now, but, after swallowing
his Adam's apple a few times, he said
that he would make no objection to the
confirmation of his black friend to this
office in his home town. Senator
Foraker, by the way, has played the
political game long enough to know
when it is his part to take a blow with
out flinching.
That $12,000 surplus that has been
permitted to accumulate in the Chena
city treasury is a very striking testi
monial of the honesty of the municipal
administration. The money has been
collected because it had to be. The
license tnonev goes to the city and
there oeing no legitimate manner of
spending it the council has permitted it
to erow into a surplus. No one can
say the people of Chena are not capable
of self-government and speak truth.

Th<> telegraphic dispatches tell us
that the rcn'.lment against territorial
uovernmeot for Alaska is growing in
every quarter which means, of course,
that the corf orations are being gotten
in line against the people, for no such
sentiment is growing in Alaska.
A few short months ago a Juneau
paper said: Gov. Hoggatt is the most
popular man in Alaska.'' Today the
ame paper cannot help but admit that
Gov.- Hoggatt is the most UNPOPU
LAR man in Alaska.
Do not forget that the Washington
news many Alaskan papers secure is
from Walter Clark and that Mr. Clark
is a fiiend of Gov. Hougatt, who is not
a friend of Alaska's best interests.
President Bonnitield, of ,the First
National of Fairkanks, is strongly in
favor of the federal government build
ing and operating Alaskan railroads.
That vrroundhog was wiser than we
thought the early part of the week.

For Home Kule
(Fairbanks Times)
After casting their votes for men who
stood upon a platform, the first plank of
which was a demand for territorial
government, the Tanana Miners' asso
ciation. business and professional men
of this district went on record a second
time last evening when they passed the
resolution, fathered by the association,
endorsing the efforts put forth bv Hon.
Frank Waskey to obtain self-govern
ment for Alaska.
It was to oe expected. Men do not
change their opinions in a day. An
overwhelming vote for the candidates
standing for territorial ;:overnment
indicated the belief of the people in
justice of the demand.The resolution is
for our delegate.lt also serves to resent
the unbidden entrance into Alaska's
political rights of an appointed govern
TANANA PAPER
MAKES UGLY CHARGE
The enemies of Judge .Wickersham
and former Mayor Barn-Jtte, of Fair
banks, accuse the latter of having pur
chased the intluence of Senator Bailey,
of Texas, for Judge Wickersham in [his

Times says Capt. Barnette purchased
his Kentucky farm through Senator
Bailey and paid the latter Si'.O.iH1-' more
than the farm is worth for it.
