thc belief of some officials that
cry vague rumor that reaches
them is the occasion for the expend
ing of thousands of dollars, "to put
down uprisings."
Alaska is neither Mexico nor a
wr«trl,e1 Central American country
where eighteen people can etart a
revolution, and when officials at
tempt to spread the impression that
it is a boiling-over pot of radical
ism they misrepresent—utid delib

Trotsky or Lepine themselves, but

On Friday the Chronicle received
no less than four messages from
the States, urging that dispatches
be sent immediately us to the Hyde*
uprising. They were followed by
dispatches telling of the dispatch
of the Algonquin with a big force
of men and machine guns.
Yesterdays arrivals from Ifjdrr
reported that the nearest thing to
an uprising there w as a somewhat
overeonvivial celebration, occasion
ed by the consumption of a liquid
that is not now drunb in the best
of families—openly. They aay there
*»a'no sign of any demonstration
of any kind and they characterize
the r< ports as buncombe.
Now. thf*e reports originated
from official sources. Of that there
cat) he no question, for otherwise
the government ship and men would
not have been dispatched. It is
but further misrepresentations of
conditions in the north, which mis
representations were started some
weeks ago by worthy citizens of the

Hydei it badly in need >t u new
duck and it lias been unable to get
it to date because of the difficulty
in securing funds. If the govern
ment would take the money that it
is cc&ting to run the Algonquin and
cfew. with troops, to Hyder, and
potlatch that us a nest egg for a
dock fund, the thriving mining camp
would soon have this much needed
improvement under way.
It is certainly time that the offi
cials responsible for this sort of in
justice to Alaska, and to the treas
ury of the United States, should be
brought to account for their delin
quencies, or over-enthusiasm, and
to that end, steps should he taken
in all parts of the Territory to see
that they are brought to account.—
