INDIAN FRANCHISE.

Governor Brady believes the Indians

which Of course includes the elective fran
ehise, and would give the Indians the
Fight to vote when the people shall e
lied upon to elect delegate to congress,
which Governor Brady relieves will be
next wear. While such ideas are sticky
In line with Governor Braty's record, 1t Is
not prob ibe that his solicitations for the
noble red man are alone responsible his
attitude.
The truth is more likely that the cum
ming executive is planning political future
for himself. He we'll knows that his public
career will be cut short when the people of
r. Alaska shall have been given home rule If
the destinies of the territory to be are
given In the hands of the white citizens
who are now developing the north. If the
elective franchise be given the Indians the
willy aborginee speaking governor evident
" believes he would have his political an
tsgonlsts at disadvantage. His copper
eolored friends would hold the balance of
power, and If thew did his bidding, it
would probably be many years before the
enterprisiug business men Of Alaska would
have the direction Of their own affairs.
The scheme of our ambitious governor
should be nIpped in the bud. 1t Is all verv

take would be made If the race question be
Injected into the problems that will cons
front this territory when 1t shall have been
established. The history Of the Southern
states during the last three decades should
be sufficient to teach Americans what to

power to rule. The white population of
Alaska is we'll gu ilIhed to Law the founda'

pare favorably with those of anv other

be working hardship, indeed, If the IN
civilized natives Of the forest were given
the right TO glvern them.

IN AMERICAN TERRITORY.

Those best informed maintain that the
new Chilkat digeings on Bear and Clear
creeks would be in American territory but
for the stupid and monumental blunder of
Sectetarv Hav. While this adds nothing
to the principles involved in the cowardIv
surrender made by tie Anglo Maniac who
shippers away his time serving foreign
masters in the position once filled by the
lllustrious Blaine, 1t intenslfies the actual
pecuniary loss by the humlliating pi oceed-
Ing.
American historians write with pride
about the collection of $4,000, 900 Amer
lean diplom ats forced out of Great Britain
on account of the Alabiml claims. but
there are many times that much gold in
the lands this man HAY went out of his
wav to present to Great Britain.
This Is said adYisedlv. Secretary Hav
became impatient when the Joint High
Commissioners could not agree over the
Alaskan boundary question, and his impa-
stience was with the American commission
srs. While the matter was vet In the
hands of the commission, negotiations
were opened up by the foreign Offices OF the
two countries In the course of which Mr..
Hav gave away the rich mining camp.
The announcement of the modus vlvendl
agreement was as great surprise to the
American members Of the Joint High Com

their ehagrin was exceeded by that of
no one.

4 Rule That Elicits a Protest From
Married Women.

"I do wish some one would write a
few rules for men," said young mar
ried woman recently. I'm awfully
tired of reading in magazines and
newspapers that ! must meet my hus-
band when he comes lone from his
office pleasantly and cheerfully,' that
the house must be like new pin, I
must be prettily gowned, the dinner
must be daintily cooked and served
and that he mustn't be worried with a
recital of the troubles of the day, no
matter If delirium supervenes for me.
These precepts are all right theoret.
ically and under ordinary circum-
stances are practical. Every woman
follows them instinctively who wishes
to retain her husbands admiration, but
why aren't there few laws Of this
sort laid down for men to followf
"Why isn't there some one to tell
them to look cheerful when they come
in and to forbear to grumble If dinner
| is trifc late for any good reason, to
| be little sympathetic and affection
ate and remember that theirs are not
the only troubles in the house?
According to the ordinary writer, a
woman's whole married life should be
spent in practlcing expedients to keep
her husbands love from growing cold,
while he apparently may pursue any
course he pleases. civil or uncivil, ty-
RI nnical or gentlemanly, and be sure of
retaining hers.
This may not be the masculine idea
of the case at all; the sterDer sex may
not really expect to get the whole
globe and give nothing in return, but
it is not the writer's fault IL they don't.
sedulously keep all such articles
away from John, for he's very good
husband, and I'm afraid such litera-
ture would put ideas into his head and
spoil him.

has an idea that my side of the part.

tries to help me straighten them out,

THE DRIED SCOTT DECISION.

A highly esteemed contemporary crit
icises Senator Hill for dwelling on
matter so completely out of date as the
bred Scott decision. But as the
whole essence of imperialism is con-
tanned in that decision, it is a rather
live question after all. The fundamen-
tai question concerning the power of
Congress in the Territories is involved
in it. as it is IN the Porto Rlcan ques-
ton.
The Constitution demands that all
duties, imports, and excuses shall be uni
form throughout the United States
A Republican Congress enacts law
fixing duties for portion of the UNI
ted States, Porto Rico, at rate differ
ent from the rest of the United States.
The President approved the law. That
is, he overrode a plain dictate of the
Constitution, This is imperialism; an
arbitrary act. If he can do it in one
thing the day will come when he can
and will do 1t IN another.
Congress in 1920 declared by legisla-
ton that citizens should not own slaves
in Territories of the United States
above a certain line mentioned in the
act. The Supreme Court in 1857 in the
bred Scott decision held the power of
Congress to do this was not warranted
by the Constitution, and that the act
was therefore void, and bred Scott re-
NAMED a slave until his race was
illegally and unconstitutionally eman-
cipated by the imperiallstic act of Lin
coin.
Senator Hill is discussing some
mighty interesting questions when he
discusses the bred Scott decision,
and the great question of i'm
perlalism this campaign has pro
duced. That he does 1t IN an able and
commanding manner is to his credit

THE OLD OFFICE INKsTAND.

Upon the ONCE table there
- It's stood for many a year;
An inky tide has ebbed and flowed
Ger all its dark career.
The careless drIps from nasty pens
Have mixed with dust and dried
And formed dingY, Crusty coat
On top and ever side,
The old brass rack on which it stands,
And where my pen has perChed,
Is twisted now and out of shape
Its pristine brightness smirChed
The thrifty pens of quill or steel
That from il drew their drink
Have dropped into the dusky past,
And lost their taste for ink.
From 1t lave passed in blacklist drops
Sweet thoughts OF purest white:
And then again in paler tint
Flowed others DARK as night.
1t takes me back to when I first
Began to learn the ropes
When sometimes Ike the office boy,
Directed envelopes.
But with the spirit of the times
I've kept lively pace
In conscience of which, own
The inkstand and the place.
