WOMEN PETITION FOR
TERRITORIAL PROHIOITION
The Women’s Christian Temper
ance Cnion of Sitka has smarted the
fight for territorial-wide prohibition.
It has directed to Congress a peti
tion asking that the territorial act
] calling for an election be affirmed,
! as follows:
“We most earnestly solicit your
support for the passage of a bill
through Congress validating tne law
of the Alaska Territorial Legislature,
providing for a referendum to tne
people of Alaska upon the liquor
question. As you will see from read
ing the enclosed petition, among the
restrictions placed upon the Alaska
Legislature by Congress Is one
against amending the laws relating
to the manufacture or sale of intoxi
cating liquors in Alaska.
"Our legislature has provided for an
expression of the Alaska people on
! this subject at the next general elec
tion; but without ratification by
Congress this law will be ‘ineffective,
even should the people of Alaska vote
dry, as It can reasonably be expected
they will. Whether you favor tne
sale of intoxicating liquors or not.
we feel that we may ask you to as
sist in securing for the American
people of this territory the right to
decide this question for themselves.
This is a natural right that American
citizens may not expect their Con
gress to withhold from them, and we
1 are counting you among our sup
porters in this matter. In this con
- nection, we beg to call your attenlon
! to the memorial of the last Alaska
, Legislature, asking Congress to re
L move these restrictions from our Or
1 ganic Act.
"The vast territory of Alaska is di
vided into four judicial and legislative
divisions, and we petition, if the vote
of the people in any one of these di
visions is against tne sale of intoxi
cating liquors no saloon licenses shall
be issued in such division, after
January 1st, 1918. These divisions or
Alaska are separated from one an
other by great natural barriers and
vast areas of uninhabited country, so
that none of the arguments against
local option can be raised against
this additional proviso.”

Wednesday evening with local]
friends.
