THE REPUBLICAN CONVENTION.

The republicans of the Second judicial division of
 Alaska will hold a convention October next for
 the purpose of eectng two delegates to the national
 convention of the party which will meet early next spring The interest we have in it lies in the fact
 that the men chosen will represent not only their
 party, but incidentally, Alaska Therefore, we may
 safely hope that the choice of delegates by the repre- sentatves of both the great political parties in Alaska
 will be such will not only be creditabe to their re- spective parties, but to Alaska as whole We do not suppose that any factiona strife will be engen- dered in the republican ranks. The republican is the dominant party, and in all human probability will continue to be such for several years to come Presi- dent Roosevelt will doubt receive the nomination of his party, notwithstanding the strenuous oppos
 tion of influential republicans of several states great aorty of the republicans of Alaska favor the nomination of Roosevelt and the same may be said of many Alaskan democrats, who are warm admirers of the sterling honesty and ruggedness of purpose which he has displayed since called to the presidency While do not believe that President Roosevelt will require the vote of Alaska in order to secure the nomination, he should receive ii, and we believe there is no question that he will. In the meantime it is due to President Roosevelt and the party, as we'll,

THE IDEA IS GROWING.

The belief is rapidly crystalzing into absolute conviction that the many ills from which Alaska suffers will only be redressed when system of self government has been bestowed upon the people. Slving the territory delegate in congress will not hll the want of local selfgovernment be that dele gate ever so able or willing to work in season and out of season for the welfare of his constituency Sslf-government means much should mean much to any people that boast of being ree but there can be no such thing freedom of the people when that people are denied the right of self-government.
 We are aware that powerful influences are at work to the end that Alaska may be kept in her prsaent anomalous condition for an indefinite length of time. We are willing to admit that the outlook for the speedy admission of the district as territory M the Union is not particularly bright; such con- summation will not bs reached until the people take active interest in sefgovernment for themselves. Many of the big corporations, and especially those engaged in the sheres are actively opposing the territorial government idea They are tttsmpting to burke it at every point and they are .uccssding very we'll. They have the means to do 'dsctusT work, and they know how to do it.. They

may therefore be able 10 prev cat congress from acting such legislation as will create Alaska into n
 territory for time to come But territorial gov ernment will come in spite of all opposition. The necessity for it will soon become so apparent that congress will not withhold it, because Alaska has many powerful friends, both in and out of the dis tric, who admit that the dsirct is entitled to self government, and they will aid us in securing it..

The Study of Man.

It is notable fact that many of the
most prominent writer's and novelists
have found it necessary to withdraw
into the country to get their best ideas
of men and city life. The socialist
generally lives in the country, where
he studies men and their ways from a
distance. In short, men in the center
of things have too little time to think
and so really know little of the very
men with whom they associate. A
man who understands men knows that
they need some good tonic like COLDER
grain belt beer, that they wear Out
with constant work and find recreation
and inspiration in this delicious health
food. 1t rests and builds up both mint
and body. Order of your neares

j. H. Faucht who has a farm up on
Wigwam bay at Mile Laos lake was
in Princeton last Friday. Mr. Faucht
is the assessor for the town of Rob-
bins this year and he came down to get
his supplies and instructions, being
obliged to make the trip at the time he
did so as to get back home the same
week. He located at the lake ten
years ago, moving from Makato where
he formerly lived. He has farm of
l55 acres and likes the country very
well. He says that there is little good
land left in that section and it is not to
be had for anything. like, what it sold
for few years ago before the settlers
commenced to locate in that country.
This was Mr.. Faucht's first trip to
Princeton and he was impressed with
the thrifty and prosperous appearance
of the place.

The Young Ladies' Sodality of St.
Edwards church gave a bonnet social
at the Maccabee hall last Saturday
night. The hall was crowded. the
young folks predominating, which
made the old and sedate wish to be a
romping boy or girl again. One of the
features of the evening that took was
the gentlemen's bonnet making con-
test. A large class of male milliners
were given sheets of colored tissue pa
per and each one had to make bonnet
and wear it. There were some great
creations from the grotesque to the
aesthetically artistic. The judges
were lot of married women who
passed up everything giddy and choose
the bonnet worn by L. A. Whittemore
OF Elk River as good for the prize and
the Elk River young man was pre-.
sented with box of stationery Just
before lunch was served J. j. Skaher
auctioned off a lot of out-of-season an6
hold-over hats that entitled the success
ful bidder to a lunch for two. There
was quite a disparity in ages and looks
IN many couples at the tables, but all
had good appetites and the young
ladies served hot coffee, cake, sand
