fHAT SEATTLE INTERVIEW
Got. Hoggatt gave an exhibition of
what he does not ^kqo*
about territorial government tuid the
District of Alaska in bis I'.-I. inter
view that is somewhat startling. Kor
instance, he begins with this statement:
"It would take $1,(100,000 a vear to
conduct Alaska a* a territory. It
would mean that out of every 20 ounces
of gold taken out of the ground in
Ahiska, one would hare to fro to sup
port its government. As it is dow. the
nat:onal government stands nearly all
the expenses."
The falsity of this statement, both as j
it applies to what would be the cost o.'
t territorial government and a.- to
whom bears the expenses of the pres
ent Alaskan government, has been m>
often demonstrated that it were un
necessary to go further into the matter ;
at this time Suffice to say that every -
oue who has studied the subject a', all '
know.. ;har. a territorial government
would necessarily cost no more thai;
the present government in Alask.i
costs, and that we have paul for our
own government in the past and to
spare. Gov. Hoggatt knows this or he
knows nothing of tbe subject.
But Gov. Hoggatt goes on
"! think the territorial government
rtovement. so far ss Alaska is concern
ed, is a dead issue. I don't know what
Delegate L'ale expects to do at the next
session of congress, but I don't
believe there will be much more heard
about the rnstter for a great number of
years."
In view of the fact that the demand
for territorial government in Alaska is
more insistent and more nearly unan
.mous cow than ever it has been, it is
difficult to understand why Gov. '
Hoggar. should weight down his special
plea wi h this additional burden.
The fact of the matter is Gov. Hog- 1
gait tal.ts for "his side" without regard
for fact or reason, ?nd "his side" is not
that of the people of Alaska.

ace s-fticien'ly to become informed ?s

paper To the interview secured from
Gov, Hoggatt the hotel reporter, afore
saui. added this hit of editors! opinion
"The governor's Slav in Washington
this w.cter has been of mucn value u>
Alaska. as he was the steadying hand 01
all attempted legislation affectinc it.
The president and the governor were
often :n confutation, an.i the former did
not make many moves regarding the
North withou talkicg it over with the
gov ernor."'
The Post-lntelligencer, in its edi
tor ?: columns. has frequently con
demned the course of Gov. Hoggatt at
Washington and all that he stanus for
in Alaska
Nebraska has voted il.i,CO0 for the
Alaska Yukon-Pacific exposition. It
is hoped to set a further appropriation
later. Judge 1. N. Wilcoxen, formerly
of Skagwav, represented the exposition
management at the capital of Nebraska.
Some of tfci1 professors of Harvard
university got together the other day
and voted that President Kliot. of that
nstitutioo, is the "Greatest Living
American.'" It really does speak well
for the boss for his men to like him.
It is claimed by the attorney general
of t&e Stats of Illinois that the Harri
man outfit robbed the Chicago A Alton
railroad properties of J-4,64$,000. An
effort will be made to recover some of
me money for tht stockholders.
