TWO CLASSES OP
ALASKANS
Tnere are two well defined
classes of citizens i i the Ter
riDory of Alaska, One says, ‘‘It’s
no use, Uucle Sam will do noth
ing and we are going to the
States and try to build us up

old-timers have arisen and are
telling Uncle Sam the true con

their own envoy to tie seat of
the Govei nun nt in the person
of the Hon. Tohn Noon and he
will whisper a t^ing or two to
them that will amaze them.
