Cotvgroas gave conspicuous and de
serving consideration to Alaska dur
ing the ftm and second days of its
present Nwor.
IT was appropriate Usat the needs
of that long -suffering Territory
should have bee? portrayed by
speakers so eloquent and able as
William T. I>rkins, Falron Joslin j
and Maurice IV Leehey.
The convent! ^n could not do less
than adopt the resolution directed
to Hon. William Alden Smith. Chair
man of the Senate Committee 01.
Territories.
The kernel of that resolution
appeared in a request for prompt ac
tloa on House Bill No 3}>. provid- .
ing an elective form of government
for Alaska, and the reason for a
decisive stand at this time was plain
ly expressed as having a direct bear
in* on the prosperity of the North
ern and Western States
It mas another expression of the
doctrine of "home rule" for the ter
ritory Senator Smiths answer, I
which was read at Thursday's ses
sion. contains the most encouraging
expression that the friends of Al
aska have heard for many a day.
The Chairman of the Committee
on Territories promptly acknowl
edged the telegram by saying that
the question placed before him
would be given immediate and he|
hoped "favorable" consideration
There is no discounting the effect,
of such action. If prompt and In-j
telligent lesis'.at :on could en
acted for Alaska, that step in itself
would go far toward solving the
emigration problem which has dis
turbed all the Western border
states for more than two years.
If the three great problems affect
ing Alaska could be solved thoso
of self-government, of transportation ,
and of the true conservation and
utilisation of natural resources ?
that act in itself would immediately
herald the dawn of a new era.
The great Territory of Alaska
would afford an outlet for the
onergy of Americans in search of a
new field. It would give the pio
neering spirit, which for the time
has been repressed, an opportunity;
and there would no longer be any |
occasion to bewail the fact that
large numbers of Americans have
?ast their homes and their fortunes
on the Canadian side of the inter- !
national boundary.
By including Alaska ir its scope
of influence, the Development Con- j
cress has taken a broad and com
prehensive step; and if the efforts o
the delegates contribute toward the
enactment of the right kind of laws
the entire tier of seven States in
cluded in the league will receive un
told benefits.
Community of interest will un
doubtedly result in united action ? ,
probably going to the extent advo- \
rated by Governor 1-ewis Penwell.
of Montana, that delegates from the
Northwest, including Alaska, be
! sent to Washington, D. C., to use.
[ their influence in securing needed
, legislation.
This is precisely the course pur- ?
sued by the allied commercial bodies
of the Pacific Coast. When to the
effort* there has been added the ac
tivities of the Development Con
gress, the unity of purpose wUl sure
ly accomplish results for all tho
elements ot the league. ? Seattle

what Fisher's Blend Flour DOF.S.
Considering the initial outlay, it's not a cheap flour.
But from the standpoint of results, it gives you more for
vour money than anv other flour on the market.
Discriminating buyers all know that cheap articles never wear well.
It's good economy to pay a little more for your things at the outset,
when you consider that they last a great deal longer.
Hence, we say of Fisher's Blend Flour, that it
Costs Mors Per Sack ? Costs Less Per Loaf, which
means that thi< product is the cheapest to the con
sumer in the long ran.
Since bread is one of our main food items, this advantage
makes Fisher's Blend Flour a necessity in every household.
