The Tilicum club of this city
should be commended for giving a
reception and banquet to Capt. G.
C. Burnell, few evenings ago. The
genial captain has done much for
Valdez and this portion of Alaska,
as the representative of the govern
ment, in the construction of the
telegraph line to the YakeT. 1t is
right that the people should show
their appreciation, Ii the Cham
Der of Commerce was live body
it would have given this banquet
and also the one to General Greedy
and to other distinguished people
who visit this place. Of course
these things are a little trouble and
if the merchants were to- attend to
them, they might loose the sale of
a pint of peanuts or half a dozen
candles, but they should be willing
to lose such a small amount and
a little time for the benefit of the
town.
1t is a peculiar thing that the
merchants of Valdez do not take
more interest in the affairs of the
town. The people say they want
sne Town 10 stay where II Is. Iney
want the court headquarters here,
and want the railroad to start from
this place, yet they take no interest
in endeavoring to make these things
possible. Ii Valdez is to become
a permanent town and the metrop-
ellis of Alaska, the business men
and citizens Of the place, must take
more interest in public affairs than
they do. If they do not do so it
will be another Dyea within
year.
1t would be a brilliant idea for
the committee which has the dis
pOsal of the funds collected for
bridges across the glacier streams,
to turn the money over to- the fire
department, or else insist on the
completion Of the ferry contract,
which says "shall cut ten foot
trail, construct and keep in repair
bridges, wherever necessary to in
sure a dry road from Valdez to the
Government trail" To pay the
money now for bridges which are
not in existence, and for road that
wss never cut, would he an impo-
sition on the subscribers to the fund.
We venture to assert that not
even a respectable sized minority
of the members of the Chamber of
Commerce would put themselves
on record as in favor of territorial
government ut the present time.
Was there a quorum present when
That unanimous endorsement was
passed?
Did we show poor judgment in
saying that the first high water
would carry off the bridges ? across

how busy be might be with other duties
Though | myself commanded neither

quaintance and the more int mately ]
learned 10 know him the greater has
grown nv love and respect for the man
No man has higher sense of honor and
n more sincere desire TO serve the com.
mon people than has Governor La Foe
lette, and no man has been worse mis-.
represented and more maliciously ,,erse
cuted and bounded He himself has
risen from the common walks of life
and has never forgotten or desr ised his
lowly origin He knows What il il to
earn his bread by the sweat of his brow,
and To stand upon his own feet not only
unaided by rich and influential friends
but even against the fiercest opposition
of wealthy and oppulent enemies
As poor fatherless boy he worked
his way through the state university at
the same time contributing to the sup
port of widowed mother and an orphan
sister, and winning some of The greatest
honors the university had to confer. He
has never had time nor opportunity to
learn what it is to live in ease and com
fort and luxury. His life has ever been
busy one Under all conditions and
circumstances with DO your duty tho
the heavens fall" as his motto, he has
stood firm like the pyramids of Egypt
and worked his way onward and mp
ward. Neither danger nor difficulty
neither success nor defeat, neither praise
nor censure can turn him aside from his
exalted purpose to serve the best in
terests Of the state. Like David of old
he is not afraid to meet Goliath of the
