THINGS LOOK DIFFERENT
The return^ from Alaska arc likely
to open the eyes of members of con
rrese and others at Washington. In
these days when the disposition on the
part of those who depend upon public
favor their positions is to give heed to
the voice of the people, such a verdict
as that of the Alaskan people will not
be overlooked with impunity. Some of
those members of the Washing-ton
lobby who have made more or less of a
reputation on account of their connec
tion with this distinct are likel\ to be
asked to take back seats next
next winter.
We fancy that there will be no more
edicts set afloat around Washington
city that Alaska shall not have self
government granted it for the next 10
years. Work will be done to pre
vent the fruition of the first plank of
the Waskey and Cale platform, no
doubt, but it will be without the
swagger that has characterized some
of the declarations the would-be dictat
ors of Alaskan legislation of the past.
Alaska has declared her independ
ence. and we believe that congress will
be disposed to grant any right that
?hall be demanded with that steadfast
ness that means business That Mr.
Waskey and Mr. Calo will tight to :h<
wt ditch for the right of self-govern
ment for their ] eople there is no doubt.
Than anti-Tammany tirade by Will
;amTravers Jerome ?mack> not a litlY
of ?our grape*. It will not be forgotten
that Jerome has been flirting for Tam
many support forhis political a- b tions
for some time. There seems much
foundation to the charge that .lerome is
a false alarm.

The election of Cale and Waskey is a
direct demand for t err. tor: a', govern
ment. They do not talk so rr.uch of
that phase of the demand at Nome and
some of the other portions of the dis
trict for the reason that in tbo.?e oth.r
aection* everybody are fi>r seU-govern
ment or pretend to be. They have rot
so many active to:ie* as we hav? had to
deal *ith on the coast.
