ALASKA FOR ALASkANS.

Alaska is destined to become a permanently set tied country. This statement does not apply cx- cusively to the southern portion of the district; it applies equally to the north The Yukon river valley is promising section of this mighty territory; is the Copper river and Cook inlet sections and in fact, the entire southeast and southwest. Here in the extreme north will be found center of activity and human industry for years to come It, too will become the homes of people who will be no longer migratory. Most of us came to Alaska with the sole idea of being but temporary sojourners in a strange and distant land; many of left our former homes with the expectation of soon returning to them. We may have been grievously disappointed at the failure of hopes and desires but time heals all wounds, and we become accustomed to changed conditions, and learn readily to adapt ourselves to them
 No country can be truly prosperous without it has hxity of homes. It is the number of homes and thci quality which the backbone of nations great ness and Alaska will prosper her vast warrant, until she has population permanent and not migratory. Of the tens of thousands of people who participated in the great Klondke stampede of lS97-9S how many expected to remain but for year or two? Yet the kondike country is already secur- ing permanent population. Railroads are being built in several directions and with the permanencv of the population the development of the country is making rapid strides along altogether lines. IL will be the in Alaska. We cannot get away from 1t. Many who came to stay but year will be- come bona fde residents; they will marry and be given in marriage, and so will their children right here in Alaska. The sooner this fact is thoroughly understood the better it will be for the country and the people, We need to cultivate espirit du corps loyalty for adopted home, and willingness to stand by it through evil and good report Alaska for Alaskans, too, is an excellent motto to remember

A MATTER OF PROTECTION.

The city council has passed legislation concern ing spislers, dog taxes and poll taxes and several other kinds of taxes, some of which the NUGGET be- lievcs i'll and some of which it has condemned. It should be the aim of the good citizen, and incident ally the good newspaper, to encourage any measure that will bring the greatest good to the greatest num-
 Der. That is what the NUGGET believes in and advo- have taken occasion heretofore to remark that we do not believe in erecting Chinese wall about any country or community We believe in the fullest and freest opportunity for men to better their cond- lions while in the meantime promoting trade and commerce. But we have complained of one evil, at least. the magnitude of which has been forced upon the notice of all discerning men. Reference is made to the periodic ncursons of the tnerant transient
 trader. The time of his annual visitation is ap- preaching. He will reach Nome with number of commodities of which the community is short and will hold up the people for fancy prices Many "have been there beorc,' and will appreciate the force of this statement. Afterwards, when the SUD- plies arrive more plentifully, the transient trader will continue his business at any old stand that he procure possibly in tent, he will make Ideal" with local trader reap the profits for few months, demoralizing legitimate business he does so for he is under little expense and just before the ice-pack creeps in next fall he will fit to a
 mer cline He can afford to do so while the legiti- mate business man must toll through the long winter in an honest endeayor to make both ends meet"

taxed in every possible way under the sun, besides replying to appeals without number for charitable purposes during the long Arctic winter
 The bona fde business man in Nome should be protected. The predatory incursions of the outside "peddler should be checked. To do this in man. ner that will accomplish some real and lasting good is matter that requires careful thought and prompt attention. It is within the province of the city council to enact legislation which may at least partially afford the desired protection. And it is high time that action should be taken

FEAR or A SMALLPOX EPIDEMIC.

inc NUGGET mas heretofore auVcrtcu 10 the 1act that the introduction of smallpox into Nome may be apprehende' on the opening of navigation. There to be good reason for the fear of visitation of the disease Recent advces from the outside are to the effect that smallpox is now epidemic not only in the United States, but in England, as we'll. In all probability there more cases of this disease under treatment, all countries taken into consider aticn, than at any other time within the knowledge of living man. We told that it will go down in history the worlds greatest epidemic, unless some statisician collect figures prove that some past period is entitled to the distinction, if such it may be termed.
 There two ways of looking at this condition of affairs First, that the advancement of medical knowledge has destroyed the danger of the disease or that neglect of vaccination has given it an oppor- tunity to regain hold which was supposed to be broken through the general use of vaccine virus. Which theory may be correct the present status seems to have brought forth vigorous discussion all over the world among the friends and enemies of vaccination. Apparently it would be difficult matter 10 state which part of the United States is most sorely afflicted. All the Atlantic States are suffering, especially Massachusetts In the Middle West most is heard from St. Paul where experiments are being conducted to show the value of vaccination Chicago is also sufferer Official reports from the United States marine hospitals show that on March l5 there were 12, l22 of smallpox in the United States, as compared with 1850 at the same time in 1901 Seattle had more than 100 of this number and there arc more or less cases in all the cities of Washington.
 It is not possible that the official report shows all the of smallpox. There is inclination almost everywhere to hide the existence of the disease Necessarily, this interferes with the efforts of the officials in learning the condition of affairs. The midness of the epidemic also has its share in preventing complete record being obtained for the type in all parts of the world is very light so much so, in fact that many victims have not been in capacitated from performing their daily work. In many cities physicians arc being sent from house to house for the purpose of vaccinatng people free of cost, and this has aroused storm against compul- sory vaccination, but the argument seems to be in favor of the practice.
 It is scarcely possible that Nome can escape smallpox vistaton In the last issue of the NUGGET it was stated that of smallpox had been dis covered on a steamer on the Seattle-Valdes run Therefore. with crowded vessels sailing from infected ports it is scarcely possible that we can escape The quarantine officials may be depended upon to do their whole duty, but manifestly they cannot absolutely guard against the introduction of the disease. The people, however, may protect themselves in the some measure. They can santate and vaccinate.
