The Hon. Dan Sutherland, Re
publican candidate for Delegate
to Congress from Alaska, is all
“het up,? over the number of

would use his best endeavors to
adjust these matters. If some
of those who run for office would

past years, and introduce one
or two to alleviate the high cost

SUG -VR in the FAR SOUTH
The Prime Minister of New
Zealand recently made public
t ie fact, that the N. Z. Govern*
mont had purchased the entire
Fiji sugar crop, so that country’s
supply of sugar for the next 12
months is assured.
The people of N. Z. had the
cheapest sugar in the world for
the period of the war, but they
cannot expect to get it at the
same price any longer. The new
price is to be sixpence a pound,
which at that price will still be
the cheapest sugar in the world
The other day some sugar was
st den from an American ship in
aN. Z. port and when the thieves
w 're caught and prosecuted rhe
sugar was valued on the charge
sheet at ten pence a pound.
