MR. SUL2ER AND ALASKA
Representative Sulzer's idea of ap
plying to Alaska lauds laws similar
to thoso now iu existence in the prov
inces of Canada is at least worth con
sidering. The New York congress
man has been giving much attention
to the Alaska problem; he realizes
the imperative need of doing some
thing to hasten the development of
Alaska, and it may be that his sug
gestion of a lease law for the north
ern country would result in some
good.
Hut in the final analysis Alaska
will not make the progress the terri
tory ought to make until it is given
a more satisfactory governmental
status. The people of Alaska are cap
able of governing themselves. They
are American citizens imbued with
the spirit of American institutions.
They believe in American political
principles, it is absurd and outrag
eous to force upou such a people an
administration so thoroughly undemo
cratic as that now applied to the
northern country.
The people of Alaska, ought to be
allowed to govern themselves. They
know what they need. They are cap
able of governing themselves, and
congress can do no wiser or better
thing for Alaska than to turn the ter
ritory over to the people of Alaska,
and the quicker congress takes that
view of the matter, the better it will
be. ? Seattle P. I.

OLD FOSSIL IVORY
From Alaska is a Curio, a, Souvenir
And an Ornament
Tko interest show 11 by tile tourist
ia the various souvenirs is greater iu
regard to the Fossil Ivory thau auy
other specimen of curios which are
ottered for sale by the numerous
stores ia the town ot Alaska.
Aside from its beauty as an orna
uieut, surrounded as it is with the
gold nuggets, natural in shape and
color, the interest seems to be en
hanced by the fact that the Ivory is
thousands upon thousands of years
old.
There are three kinds of ivory found
in Alaska ? Mammoth, Mastodon and
Walrus.
The Mammoth and Mastodon, pre
historic animals, (according to our
scientists) lived a hundred thousand
years ago, and today is found in the
ground by the natives, on the shores
of the Arctic Ocean, Beriug Sea and
the North Pacific Ocean, and occas
ionally by miners in shafts and drifts.
The fossilized coloring is caused by
minerals contained in the earth, where
it had laid buried for thousands ot
years.
H. D. Kirmse has the finest collec
tion of Old Fossil Ivory jewelry in
the entire district, and it is well
worth one's time to inspect the beau
tiful stock now on display in this pop
ular jewelry emporium.
