did not listen in on that evening
missed a treat. One evening the

dered a receptioh and free dance
'o all the visitors at their own

ah and Metlakatla Orchestras.
One evening the assembled vis
itors were dinner guests of the
Salvation Army. Kasaan and
Saxman Camps each fed the
multitude for a day, but Ketchi
kan has shown the world what
loyalty and close organization
can do. I found myself wishing
hhe convention might last all
winter.
No account of the convention
would be complete without a
vord about the calibre of those
vho will watch over the destin
es of the organization during
he coming year. Louis Shot
•idge. president elect of the Bro
herhood, is a member of the
’acuity of the University of
’ennsylvania. He will be sta
tioned at Sitka for a tivelve
nonth period conducting an- i
hropological investigations. He I
s everywhere recognized as anj
iuthority in his line and his se- j
ection for this highest office is'
i fitting recognition of this son I
if the Chilkats. One of the;
greatest achievements of the
Sisterhood in the convention
vas the selection of Mrs Ed
Margaret) Ridley as Grand
’resident. She is not great in
erms of avoidupois but in dy-,
vanno nersonality she is just so
nueh TNT We may expect to
ieer much more of both of these
eaders in the months to come.
?EAPPOI?TIONMENT NEEDED
One- fourth of the state of
Washington e'ects a majority
>f the members of the state
egislature. One-half of the
^me state’*! population elects
snlv one fourth of the members!
>f the state legislature. This is
he starring inequality in the
)resent Washington legislature.
One-tenth of Alaska’s popu
ation elects one fourth of the
rerritorial legislature while one
aalf of it elects another fourth.
When the Southeast Division
elects men who will work in
larmony with the Nome division,
vhose electorate is only 600,
then the strength of that divi
sion in the legislature is com
oletely out of proportion to its
numerical strength. The wishes
af the First Division are ignored
and their requests for a fair ap
portionment of appropriations is
not heeded. And even illegal
legislation, such as providing a
mbsidy for the Lomen Reindeer
Corporation passed. And the
progressive candidates are blam
ed for their failure to secure
beneficial legislation. After
the voter ties the progres
sive legislature up in a knot
with opposition through other
legislators, then they damn the
progressive for failure to secure
legislation needed and demand
ed by the electorate. It would ap
pear that a great many electors
need a literacy test to quality
them to exercise their right ol
franchise.
