There should be a light and powar
fund and a city water fund and no
transfers from one fund to another
should be made only as loans anu
after mature deliberation of a full
council.
Think all these things over. They
are all for city good.
We think the school board will
have a good official in Mrs. Mamie
Tveten. She fa long a resident of
the city, has children attending
school and is well qualified in every
way for the position.
KICKS AT THE SEATTLE CHAM
BER COMMERCE
The Ketchikan Chronicle makes
a strong editorial kick because the
Seattle Chamber of Commerce had
little or nothnig to say when the
test case was recently made to as
certain whether or not salmon
packed in Canada should be sold in
the United Staets duty free.
The Seattle customs promptly fix
ed a duty on the incoming fish,
but it isn’t known at this time if
tne customs officials, in their ac
tions, will be backed by superior of
ficials at Washington.
< Since Seattle gains so much from
the pack of Alaska going thorugh
Seattle, it is a little odd that no
more of a move was made to have
a representative of the Seattle
chamber of commerce on hand at
time of the arguments. The city
may have thought it immaterial
whether the pack of salmon came
to it through Canadian ports or
direct by steamship.
To the average catcher of fish, it
doens’t make much difference what
is done with his product after it
falls into the hands of those who
make a business of preparing it for
the table. The fisherman is in
terested mainly in price. Tariffs
and duties he doesn’t have a great
deal to do with, nor does he care,
as a rule, whether his catches go
to Canada and then ,again, to tho
United States, through the customs
at Rupert or direct to Seattle.
Evidently, it is a fight—or a skir
mish—of big business, so let him
settle it. The salmon fishers of the
territory have been so greatly push
ed into the back ground of things
through the actions of big business
and the trapping interests—a one
concern so far as the welfare of
the fisherman is considered—that
the short comings of chamber of
joittmerce officials and the whinings
Jf the packing trust doesn’t in
terest him.
We are interested in the interests *
if the catchers of fish. Those who
Eiack, can, freeze or pickle have all
-he help they need in money and j
n politics, and there will always
be buyers of salmon. The Chron
icle stands in with canners and
packers and freezers instead of with
those who sail the seas and smell
if gear and seaweed, so let it moan
jver the short comings of the Cham
ber of Commerce if it wants to.
