FOR A TERRITORY.

There WoS a suggestion made by the DAILY ALASKAN some time ago that the delegates of the two political parties, when elected, should in friendly way discuss the best measures for Alaska and impress the importance of these measures upon the national conventions. The republicans have elected their delegates. and although they are altogether unpledged it can be as sumed that majority, if not all of them, are in favor of territorial form of gov- ernment fer southeastern Alaska. The democrats hold their primary and elect their delegates on the 2Ist of this month, and it is merely thrown out as a sugges- ton that, as the political lines in Alaska are not fairly drawn at present, that we are all Alaskans first and democrats or repub- lleans in secondary sense, it might be well for the democrats of Skagway to con- slider carefully this territorial question. If the delegates of both parties should have plank in its favor, it would almost en- sure the passage of such measure at the next congress, no matter which party gains the victory in the forthcoming cam paign.

THANKS TO SENATOR CARTER

The Rosalie brought the newspapers of May lst and 2nd and in the latter is found the decision of the Senate in re- gard to the Alaska civil bill. When it was again brought mp in the senate on May lst Senator Carter announced the withdrawal of all pending amendments relating to the location of mining claims, and stated that he did this be- cause of the urgent need of legislation for Alaska at this session. That this urgent need was generally recognized by other senators there was no doubt !, but it was obvious. said Senator Carter, that some members felt so deeply on the pending amendments that they would detate the bill to death. He therefore asked unanimous consent that all the debatable amendments be with drawn, and this being given, the bill was allowed to pass.
 There is as was stated yesterday, no real point of contention in regard to the bill that is likely to be raised by the house, and therefore Skagway is in a fair way to become municipality be- fore the summer is over. This will be good news to everybody, whether the house increases the appropriation from the taxes to seventy>fve per cent. or not, but from private advices it seems probable that the bill will pass the house without discussion, and that this will be the only point upon which it will go back to the senate for concur ence.
 And if the next advices are to the ef- feet that the bill has passed the house and become law, we must never for get the great and unselfish work Sen ator Carter has done in the premises for Alaska. Although frOp the state of Montana, which has no particular business associations with Alaska, he has so devoted himself to the interests Of this district that he has become Q recognized authority on the subject. And there is in all this such an appar ent unse. fishness, so rare in the halls of congress, that one must pause to admire it, while. as Alaskans, we give praise to the law giver who has devoted so much of his time and energy to the best intarests of ti,v hIasKa people.
 That he could not do all that he de- sirea to GO, that he had to "dicker" with those whose selfish interests were apparent, should raise him h gher in the opinion of the Alaska people than otherwise. It emphasizes the opposi> tion that he has almost single handed fought against in order to secure for Alaska some legislation at this session of congress. With Puero Rico, Hawaii, Manila, and other questions of impor- tance, together with the fact that this is a presidential year. that he should have been able to get an Alaska bill through the senate is high oompli- ment to his diplomatic skill and good judgment, and all Alaskans will be proud to acknowledge that the District owes its first congressional recognition to his able and iong continued efforts in their behalf.

FROM BOSTON HERE.
One of the Quickest Trips Yet Put
 on Record.

Joseph Molineaux. who returned on the City of Seattle from a visit Of several weeks to his family in Boston, came across the continent on the first of the fast flyers just inaugurated by the Northern Pacific railway and termed the North Coast, Linn ited. MT. Moineaux started from Boston April P and arrived here Nav 7, making the trip of 4ooo miles or more in nine and a half days, thus demonstrating that Alas ka is not so far from the Hub of the uni verse after all Mr, Molineaux has crossed the continent several times and declares the North Coast, Limited, one of the fast est trains he has seen. He says:
 "The North Coast, Limited, carries obs servation, parlor: dining. library and other cars, and has the modern conveniences of a barber shop and electric lights throughout, and, in fact, is q pal .oe on wheels. l made the entire trip from Boston to Skag- way without becoming tired. The seen cry along the route, with the advantage of the observation car, spreads before the traveler like panorama.
 "Nome is not much talked of in the east. not nearly so much as was Klondike. People there have other matters to absorb their interest They are better satisfied to do business on a more quiet order. In this country gold hunting and speculation af> ford greater excitement and possibilities Of making fortunes in short time.
 "The travel from the Atlantic coast to Europe this year will le heavy. All ac- commodations have been engaged, The trans Atlantic fleet has been diminished somewhat by heavy demands for war transports, and this leaves no surplus of passenger vessels.
 "l noticed in the Boston papers that Raymond X Whiteomb, excursion man agers, are advertising Alaska In their itin- erary of the season, but they give no great space to the advertisements l saw no pictures of Alaska's magnificent scenery in eastern hotel lobbies, and should think that number placed in the first class houses patronized by tourists would be a good means of advertising this country. In connection with the tourist travel l should think it would be advantageous tu Skagwavans to have the steamers grant stop overs in SkagWav to excurslonists.
 "The Pacific coast stands well in the eastern financial circles at present. Vest erners, largely through the demand created by the war and in other ways, have for some time found a good market for their products, and instead of borrowing from the east are sending money to that older community.
 ''To the man of the Atlantic seaboard Alaska is considerable of an unknown quantity, and he has little idea of oppor- tunities here and how to get here, and therefore we cannot expect many recruits ftom that source."
 MT. Molineaux will remain in Skagwav indefinitely,

Commerce With Hawaii.

The HOngkong Maru is the last of the
foreign steamers coming .niS way to
AIRY passengers and freight from Ho-
nolufu. The Gaelic, which sails tomor-
row for the Orient, will be the last for
eign vessel to carry passengers and
freight from here to Honolulu. She will
arrive at the latter port June 18th, and
at midnight of that date the port will
become, for all commercial purposes
an american city. The steamer Dorio
| is scheduled to sail from Honolulu for
san francisco on the 18th, but she can
not take passengers or freight for this
port as she will not arrive here until
the 18th.
The o. and o. and Togo Kisen Kaisha
lines have not altered their sailing
schedules, which include stops at Ho-
nolulu. There is nothing to prevent
their steamers carrying freight either
way between the Orient and Hawaii
which is their best trade. Both lines
did little in the freight line, but the
passenger traffic between here and the
Islands has always been fairly good
The Coptic, which left here last
month, carried 353 Japanese passengers
from Honolulu to Japan. Had this
crowd been held until after June 14th
the steamship company would have had
TO pay 50 for internal revenue stamps
on each ticket. All steamers will have
TO pay from 80 to IS on every ticket sold
now in future, as they do now at al
American ports.
Another question which has not vet
been settled is whether foreign steam.
ers stopping at the Islands may carry
the mails, as they are doing now. The
postal authorities here have asked fol-
decision from Washington on the
matter. The steamship companies are
willing, as they get paid for it-San
