federal oicehodsrs have done their best to despoil her.
 Northwestern Alaska. and in this section we in elude the second and third judicial divisions, has been so recently populated that, manifesly, it has been impossible to appoint, from it's actual residents men to places of responsibility and trust. Our marks therefore need not be applied to this section It Is the principle, as a whole, that are dealing with. We now take the broad ground and lay down the proposition that hereafter person should be appointed to federal office in Alaska unless he be a bone hde resident of the division to which he is ap- pointed, no matter what that position may be. The official who comes from outside the district necessarily knows but little concerning it. Too often. have
 pointed out, he does not want to increase his knowl- edge. IL is to him but an anchorage ground for a few years, and when his term of office expires his successor is appointed he immediately returns to his former home. The man who has established Il permanent residence in state or territory we hold is the only man who should be permitted to hold a federal office of kind. He will least be known and |; he has not the proper credentials he will not be at all likely able to secure recognition.
 Alaska for AIaskans should be our moto., The different political parties should incorporate this sentiment in their platforms. The "carpet bag y system should be strenuously condemned and reput- able Alaskan citizens should hereafter fill the places now given to the perpaetc politician of other states or territories. We speak strongly becausei is sary 10 do so. Given federal officials appointed from Alaska and in Alaska, who good citizens of Alaska there will be wonderful dmnuton of the scandals and brawls that have dsgraced the territory for a quarter of century, which have been a reproach to its citizens and which have materially retarded its progress and prosperity

JUDGE, ADVERTISEMENTS REMOVAL. ,

The news received by the first steamer to reach Nome this spring that Judge Wickersham is not to be retained the bench of this judicial division will be received with regret. Judge Wickershsm has been largely instrumental in clearing judicial atmosphere that murky indeed when he first reached Nome last fall. He has been painstaking judge. The NUGGET believes that all his judicial have been actuated by sincere desire to do that which he be- lieved was in accordance with law and for the best interests of the division over which he has presided He has done much to restore confidence that was lacking, and his singe-minded efforts have taught most that there is but application of the laws of the land-that which guarantees equal rights to all and discrimination against none.
 Judge Wickersham's lot has not been q pleasant one There are, usually differences in a country such as this and in community of' this kind which practically rreconcilable; yet, in opinion, as jurist, up 10 the present time, he has exercised discerning Judgment, breadth of mind and a con- scentious devotion to the trying duties of his office that are admirable.
 No breath of suspicion has been directed against his honesty and integrity of purpose, though perhaps in the discharge of his multifarious duties he has made stout enemies as we'll stanch friends. We regret that he is to leave us but the people of the third judicial division will rejoice that they will con- tnue to have the benefit of his wise counsel and judicial guidance

BERlNG SEA ICE CONDITIONS.

The little steamer Elk, No l, gded into port Monday morning easily and gracefully as though -shc had just been making a'quiet trip down Snake river. She badly dstanced her big sisters which, with vastly more power and with many more facili. The El's successful voyage proves that the race is not always to the swift the battle to the strong The small steamer made the trip from Puget sound to Nome in entire safety, while the big vessels are still battling with the Beriny ice pack. An elemen. of chance perhaps contributed to the Elk's success
 for while that vessel kept to the eastward and hugged the eastern shore the large steamers to have followed the usual route the westward skirng the Siberian coast. The ice pack the past winter was unusually heavy, and those vessels no doubt yet bucking the ice oes and 1t may be that several days will yet elapse before they reach their destination.
 It seems that no two seasons alike in this northern country. One spring differs from another, and so do summer, autumn anu winter.
 These conditions but emphasize the need of tele- graphic communication with the outside. Perhaps the Marconi system will be our savior. From the information at hand it seems that wireless tcle- graph system will shortly be established between Nome and St. Michael. It should be extended as rapidly possible providing that it is the which is claimed for it. With direct telegraphic communication with the outside the ice conditions in Bering could be reported the Pacific coast. and vessels sailing northward could time their dates of departure accordingly. This would obviatc the ne- cessty of steamers battling with ice for period of thirty O. forty days, at present The government when it has the time and inclination may do some thing along the lines indicated.

ALASKA FOR ALASKANS..

Alaska is the victim of the carpet bag' system. The district is bearing similar crosses 10 those borne by the Southern States during the reconstruction period after the and which have been pcriencel by every territory of the Union. Those were dark and trying times for the Southern States, and too often were the Western terrtories cups of woe filled to overfowing by of the |" carpet bagging y system, which sent hordes of unfit inefficient. censccnceless and utterly rapacous federal officials to prey upon a bless commonwealth.
 The people of the South and the people of the territories besought congress and successive admins trations for relief that seldom never came There was some for this nfction upon the Southern States during reconstruction days, for the reason that those states had but recently emerged from the ranks of rebellion and in many cases it was im- possible or impracticable to appoint to federal positions residents of the Southern States.
 In the territories the system had been go firmly implanted that it was not until after many hard years of struggling for justice that the system, was partially abacd and federal officials began to be ap pointed from among the bona fde citizens of the ter ritories And it is to be remarked that with the change of system tho altogether just and equitable policy of thus recognizing the rights of the territories came .lmost immediately ameoraton of the conditions over which the people had so bitterly com plained.
 Practically speaking, Alaska is yet without the pale. With but one or two exceptions an actual bona fiie citizen of Alaska has never been appointed to federal office It has been the stamping ground, co to write, of horde of the most incompetent and rsscally federal officials whose acts dsgraced the appointing power. Occasionally, perhaps by mis- tsks an honest and efficient capable and conscientious man has come to Alaska with grpsack in his hand end commission in his pocket. These men are remembered by tho good which they did, as tho others by the evil which they wrought. Alaska official life, for tho most part, Aas teemed with scandal, and the district has suffered greatly in con sequsncs. Alaska for years past has been looked ppou e profitable field for plunder and maculate

LESSONS TO BE LEARNED.

Up 10 May last, congress had not time to pass any legislation for Alaska. There were a number of bills pending as, for instance those granting the district delegate in congress. and extending the United States land laws to Alaska. Whether these bills and others appertanng to Alaska have passed or will pass is probematical. We are the ",a end D of the United States, and even thankful for a few old, cast off clothes from time to time.
 No one need be disappointed however if we are denied congressional representation. Sometimes, We think we deserve the scanty recognition which we certainly receive. The reason will be obvious to most. We brawl too much among ourselves It is urged at the national capital that we do not know what want. We looked upon as sem-ba barians for whom anything is good enough We quarrel by the book and by our own acts render nugatory the efforts of our friends who would do something for us if would let them do so We want to enlarge our mental horizon, and the first lesson we should learn is unity of purpose With out it helpless. Were we 10 expeld some of the energy which we in finding fault with our neiehbors and in trying to undo our enemy, and act in an intelligent. straightforward manner we would achieve success hitherto undreamed of.
 There are many lessons Alaskans have yet to learn and the first is to get little broader, use their gray matter more frequently, their scnselcss strife and banish their petty j"al"usies.

BLANKETS AND INCIDENCE.
They Go Together in the Case OF
the Noble Red Man.

Commissioner W. a. Jones, OF the Of
fee of Indian Affairs. said yesterday that
the order directing the Indian agents to
see that their bronze -colored charges cut
their hair was more advisory In charac-
Ter than compulsory.
The Indian Office does not expect that
any great reform in the matter of per-
sonal appearance can ever be brought
about among the older Indians. The
younger generation, who have been edu-
Gated in the Indian schools at Govern
ment expense and who show disposition
to lapse into barbarity upon their return
to the tribe, are the ones whom the Of
fee hopes to influence. Experience has
shown that so long as an Indian wears
his blanket he will not work.
Mr.. Jones said yesterday that in the re-
suit of disobedence the department had
power 10 withdraw rations from only Ger
tain of the tribes. SoEce of the tribes are
supplied by the Govern ment under treaty.
To others provisions are given by Uncle
Sam as n gratuity.
Father Ketcham. of the Catholic In
dian Mission Bureau, had a conference
with Mr.. Jones yesterday on matters re-
lating to the work of civilizing the In
dians. The Catholic Indian Mission is
entirely Independent of the Government,
but keeps in close touch with the work of
the Indian Office
