FOR TERRITORIAL GOVERNMENT.

"The demand for iG,. territorial government is going up from every section .: the North People from all portions of th- district are becoming more and more nearly unanimous On the subject daily. From the American Yukon, from Nome, from Valdez and from Southwestern Alaska, the people are speak ing and the voices in harmony ask for self government which is becoming to be regarded as a panacea for all the ills which affct the district.
 "Just the other day Deputy Marshal Robinson of Eagle, brought the word out from that country that Eagle Circle, Rampant and other Yukon river points practically unanimous the question: There is nothing else talked It is the only remedy suggested in that section for nolcrabe conditions,
 "P. H. Watt, assistant postmaster at Nome says .he only question agitating the people of Nome is 70 whether Alaska should be one two territories. That our laws should be made by Alaskans is admit ed by everybody. The heaviest mine owners at Nome arc the strongest advocates of territorial gov ernment. They want ntelligcntly made laws with an acces ssble lsw-makng power to make changes when fouhd necessary.
 / From only Juneau and Stka is there now heard the voice of the tory and he is very much in the mi. nority in those towns.
 Territorial government for Alaska is only short distance in the future That is just surely any thing is sure which has not yet come to pass"
 There is nothing that has given the different sec tions of Alaska such a community of interests as the movement for territorial overrment that took shape at the recent trans Mississippi congress It is good deal the Skagway Alaskan says, well nigh rresis ble because so unanimous. It certainly would ap pear that Alaska will get what she asks for strong ly and unanimously she is asking for territo rial government

FOR THE NOME HARBOR.

Competent engineers have estimated that good harbor can be made at Nome by tho expenditure of about $130,0O0 If it bc possible to make harbor at Nome by the expenditure of double that sum it should be made, and all Alaska should, and doubt less wi cooperate with Nome to appro- priation from congress for the boon badly needed and to which the port is entitled Nome and the country to which it is the enrcpot furnishing market for millions of dollars worth of the products of the United States and they giving employment for great shipping investment. Many ports that arc receiving more than Nome asks from the federal government are far less deserving of aid"
 We judge that the above editorial from the Skag- way Daily Alaskan is sensible and sound. Nome does not ask for anything much when she asks for harbor for the little boats. It would simplify mat ters great deal to have that concession made by Uncle Sam In the Nome roadstead there will be handled this year perhaps between 55OO0 and 6OOO0 tons of freight and thousands of passengers, and in the harbors of Seward peninsula at least 150- GOO tons of freight In view of the importance of Nome, therefore, as shipping point, and for the safety of the thousands of passengers that land here, THE NUGGET thinks that appropriation should certainly be made by congress for the improvement of this harbor. The least that be done is that much, and glad to have the people of other parts of Alaska investigate and acknowledge the jus tice of our claims. Nome will not ask congress for much but what little she needs she needs very badly

THE ARCTIC BROTHERHOOD.

The following editorial complimentary to the Arctic Brotherhood order might very properly come under the head of the 'good of the order" and 70 is reproduced in TIE NUGGET It is, be seen, a note of appreciation of the brotherhood in view of the grand camp recently held in Skagway:
 "The session of the grand camp of the Arctic Brotherhood that adjourned yesterday afternoon, made very clear showing of the stability and pro- grsss of the country. While few camps that were prematurely established in places like Lake Bennett have died with the vanishing of the transcent towns where they located the order at large has made a wonderful growth. In nearly every instance the subordinate camps are established in we'll built and handsomely equipped halls.
 "In Nome, where the active membership numbers over 200, the splendid clubhouse of the brotherhood isrthe fountain of all the social life of the populous Arctic city This home of the brotherhood comprises reading room, library, museum and social hall, a maze of cosy corners and facilities for playing such games as billiards, pool and ping pong and double bowling alley, and indulgence in all manner of social amusement. Ladies are made welcome to the hall once . week, and as the membership of the camp is comprised of the best of Nome, they gladly avail themselves of the privilege.
 "At Council, St. Michael, Rampant and Eagle camps of the brotherhood arc affording a means of fraternal and social intercourse, and performing
 function that s appreciated far beyond the concep- tSn of those who dwell in localities where there are other and manifold organizations to absorb the aten ton of the people.
 While the active resident membership of the or der has generally and materially increased it is still
 fact that there are now more members of the order without the jurisdiction of the Arctic Brotherhood than within. They scattered far and wide. Let tsrs coming from every land in the world to the corders of the various camps, in which the writers revert ondy to the good friends they left behind when

IMPORTANT SESSION OF CONGRESS

With the Alaskan request for territorial govern msnt going before congress this winter there are many indications that the session will bc import ant one. Alaskans desire at least the measure of self-government that the territorial form will give them. They are anxious to be at least in part nde- pendent They Americans first and foremost, and ask for only fair measure of the American privilege
 President Roosevelt and congress THE NUGGET believes, are as anxious to do the right thing by Alaska Alaskans are anxious that they should be given the opportunity The people of Nomo have every confidence in congress. We have friends in both places-in the house and in the senate. We believe they will stand by any reasonable request that Alaskans may make, and surely the requests make will be both modest and reasonable A little help from congress for harbors and roads and fair measure of home rule will not be too much to ask We are sure that congress will agree with us and that President Roosevelt will not say nay.
 The next session of congress will certainly be for Alaska and Alaskans one of very great importance. None will appreciate this than those who have the interest of Alaska at heart.

departing from the country lead. to the belief that the holding of the next grand camp session at Seattle will mean the most general reunion of Arctic Brothers within the history of the order."
The Nome nugget., 1903-09-12

The official call for a non partisan convention to be held at Juneau, October 26, has been issued It is a convention for Aaskans in which the questions now agitating the public shall be considered. The matters that Alaskans have in common, upon which they wish to ask congress for acon will up for action It is apparently neither political nor sec tional. It will be effort to unite all Aaskans in securing their constitutional rights. The great ques tons of the present and future rights of the people of Alaska will be considered and recommendations made 10 congress- It ought to be historic congress. It ought to unite and soldify Alaskans in the mat ters pertaining to their common needs and common rights It ought to be congress in which all Alaska is represented. Every camp in the country ought to send the full measure of delegates Nome will surely have plenty of her representative citizens their way to the outside that can go to Juneau and give her proper representation. So important a matter ought not to be allowed to go by default. This is the time to show congress that Alaska has enough of a community of interests to be united certain great questions. Personalities be dropped and all local issues in the attempt to unite all Aaskans in their requests for legislation and in their demands for their rights.
 It will doubtless surprise many people to know that so far this there has been landed at Nome 15,023 tons of general merchandise, 1509l tons of coa S446S1 feet of lumber and 2026 horses and cattle. This is the actual shipment into Nome up to the Sth of September. The tonnage now on the way will add materially to this quantity, the tom house figuring that for the next six weeks these
 figures will be increased at least one-tlird Solomon has had this year 25O0O tons of freight and at St. Michael there have been unloaded for uprver points at least 6OOOO tons of freight making a grand total of practically 150,O0O tons of freight Il at the Seward peninsula handled from Seattle and the outside. This will show what Noms is mining camp. The capacity of this country for freight is something velous. With hundreds of thousands of tons oi freight landed at the camps the sho of Boring sea- it would seem if congress would quickly recog nize the claims of Alaska for recognition.
 disastrous fire visited Council City recently. It was not much the amount of loss that was to be regretted it was that the Goovin hotel burned. The burning of hotel in mining camp is always bad but in this it reminded Council citizens that they must be the alert for the fire fend. fire is always douby dangerous where the buildings are frail Most camps have to learn by experience that every precauton must be taken. Fire protection is absolute necessity. Nome has found this out, and it will be we'll for other camps to bear this in mind. Money spent in protecting camp against common enemy like fire is money well spent
