Geographical Jackson has succeeded in showing that he had whole lot of inducements from senators and others outside of Alaska, for his appointment as Worlds Fair commissioner for AL aska, but maybe it was necessary for him to have little support from AL askans, to get the job, and that is the reason he fell own so hard.

The Valdez city council passed set of resolutions asking the Territorial Committee of the Senate to favor in creased powers for the incorporated towns of Alaska, but the citizens of that town, in mass meeting assembled, declared that all that Valdez wanted was a wagon road, and that they had mo interests in common with those other sections of Alaska" Now will some of the advocates of city council representation please explain who re- presents Valdez.

And Valdez has decided to go it alone, and refuses to "jine in" with the rest of Alaska in the effort to secure needed legislation. We'll, there is mighty little left of Valdez to "jine" with anyway.

There is no doubt that the question of a territorial form of government will be one of the subjects discussed by the non-partisan convention at Ju- neau. Much depends on the result of the deliberations of that body. Home rule for Alaska should be the war cry of every man who is tired of carpet bag government, of misrule, of jobbsry, of receivers, of franchises, of claim jumpers, of insolent officers, of high licenses, of neglect, of scorn, of abuse and of every damnable and devilish de- vice to eKtort and rob the people of Al aska, at the same time denying them the God given rights of American citi- zenship.
Douglas Island news., 1903-09-30

The style of argument usually pro- duced by the Anti-territorialists is something like the following from the Skagway Guide: "You may approxi- mate the stars in nail keg, hang the ocean on grapevine to dry, wipe the nose of a cyclone with towel, cut off the tail of tornado for keepsake, put the sky in the ground to soak, un- buckle the bellybsnd of eternity and open the sun and moon as health re- sorts-but never delude the idea, gentlemen, that you can make the people of Alaska believe they want territorial government at this time"

Change in Time,

The G. V. G. & N Ry. Co. has
made change in the running of
its trains. Instead of one train
making the round trip from Globe
to Bowie each day, train No IL
will leave Bowie at 7:45 a. M, and
meet at thomas at 1885 n. m No
IL will arrive at Globe at 3 D. NJ.
and No. IL will arrive at Bowie at
1886 p. m No l2 viii pass through
Stafford at 9;l0 u. M, and No. II at
1890 p IN.
This change of time will make it
more convenient in many respects
although some people will call it
hardship to have to remain in
Bowie over night But even this
has its pleasant features, for any
one spending a day and night
under the ohaperonage of Capt.

MORMON ENTERPRISES.

The Mormons, who have made
several portions of the regions in
the surrounding country blossom
as the rose, are now, through their
missionaries. doing indefatigable
and apparently successful work in
New England, and notably in
Vermont, to an extent which is
disturbing other religious leaders.
The Boston Advertiser attributes
the success of the Mormons to the
energetic, hopeful and courageous
efforts of their evangelists in com
munities that have become relig-
iously listless. Says the Adyer-
tiser.
The Mormon breathes quick
ening spirit into the whole place,
and by his aggressiveness magne-
tizes the people, as directed power
always does, notably in the busi-
ness world. They Immediately in
fer that the doctrines of tho man
who is so full Of life must be
living truth in themselves. Con-
versions then follow as q matter of
course, as they have since the
world first had belief. The re-
ligious life Of community has
been dormant, and, when a domi.
nant force arouses il, it wins its
followers. That Vermonters in
the rural districts ale entering the
Mormon church in large numbers
is the answer for mans innate
craving for religious enthusiasm.
The religious part OF his nature
cannot enjoy Rip Van Wrinkle
sleep without impairment.
The extent of the Mormon en-
eroachment upon. the established
religious preserves of New Eng
land is doubtless exaggerated,
says the Nashville American but
there is force in the Advertisers
emphasis on the value of aggress-
i've religious work and the vita
LIKING effect Of persistent and res
olute effort. One of the chief
causes of the sometimes pbenom-
nal advance of various religious
fads is the enthusiasm and energy
that usually characterize the prop
agation Of the novelties OF new
creeds, or of religions that are un-
der the ban of orthodoxy or ofl
prejudice, and which must be the
more vigorously propagated to
overcome popular opposition. The
tendency in most churches is to-
wards a contented acqueiscence in
the existing status, which too often
amounts to indifference or apathy. |

OF INTEREST TO MERCHANTS.

A correspondent at Irvington
ILL.,, writing to one of our ex-
changes, gives some very pointed
facts about mail order houses and
how to lessen their trade, and how
some merchants hold their GUS
toners.
This is what he says:
"If our home merchants would
advertise their goods pr perly the
large supply houses would find
their trade falling off in the coun-
try districts.
"The big department stores ad-
vertise and give prices on every
article, while the home merchant,
if he advertises at all, seldom
quotes prices.
"We like to read in our home
papers the prices for VIII b we can
buy good from our home dealer,
together with description Of the
goods, so that we may knpv what
we can purchase from our home
stores.
"The home merchant, nine times
out Of ten, sells bis goods as cheap
as the same grade of goods are
sold by any of the big houses but
their customers don't know it.
"a merchant must n think
that even his best customers are so
familiar with his goods anu prices
Graham guardian., 1903-09-25
The Output

The output is the keynote
to profit. In deciding upon
a price at which to sell, o
manufacturer, no matter
what article he bas to offer,
considers how many he is
likely to sell, and bases his
charges accordingly. 1t is
quite reasonable, too. fla
tailor sells only two suits of
clothes each week, his in
come must come from the
profit of these two suits. If
he can, however, double or
trelle bis output without
materially increasing his
working expenses, he can
naturally afford to make the
prof on each suit much less
Again, this output decides
the buying power. 1t is
ouly necessary to state that
there have been manufactur-
ed and sold over

This is the idea exactly. Work

will do more than anything to
solve the problem of the colored

full employment will keep them
out of trouble. 1t is the loafer

society. As good old ortho-
doxy puts it, the DEVILS work is

says about his race is true of all
human beings
Work is salvation-that is, work
of the right kind rightly done and
rightly remunerated Pleasure, as
it is commonly understood, is tre-
quently misappIied. The so-called
