LABOR AND CAPITAL.

We favor the enactment and administra-
ton of laws giving labor and capital i'm
partially their just rights. Capital and
labor ought not to be enemies Each Is
necessary. TO the other Each has its rights
but the rights OF labor are certainly no less
vested" no, less sacred" and no less
'inalienRbe" than the rights of capital
Constitutional guarantees are violated
whenever any citizen is denied the right to
labor, acquire and enjoy property or reside
where interest or inclination may deter
mine. Amy denial thereof by individuals,
organizations or governments should be-
snmmari lY rebuked and punished.

THE DIFFERENCE

The Valdez Prospector, commenting upon the contention of the Daily Alas kan that the congress is not fitted to leg islate for Alaska, says:
 "ThS native born citizen of the Onlt- ed States, who believes m the great, ness and justice of the government or the United States, is, by these anareh- ists, dubbed a tory.'
 To which the Daily Alaskan replies that the citizen of the United States native born or otherwise, who fails to protest when the great government or the United States refuses to extend the same justice to Alaska that obtains elsewhere throughout the domain or the freest and greatest republic upon which the sun has ever shOne, possesses his citizenship in vain. The Daily Alaskan so loves the United States gov ernment that it desires the principles which have distinguished it from the monarchical governments of the old world extended to Alaska. The great underlying teuets of the United States government are so dear to the true American that he will not refuse to in- slst upon his right to have them applied t5 him just because a few ofhcehOlders enjoy the exploitation of their little temporary authority.
 Nothing could prove that no mistake was made when the Valoez Prospector was branded tory better than it's own words. It's contention that to critieiSe the congress and the score or so of pub lie servants who happen to have charge of the administration of the laws for little while is anarchy is directly in line with the mouarchieal aXiOms-hat "the king is the state," and "the king can do no wrong. It were as un-American to contend that the congress IS the gov ernment and can do no wrong as 1t would be to adhere Co the monarchical theory Of the divine right-Of kings.
 It is because the great majority of the people of Alaska believe "tn the greatness and justice of the government of the United States" that they are asking for their rights under that gov ernment. The great difference be- tween them and some of the tories is that they refuse to recognize a few of the servants of the government as the government itself. They regard the American people, the American con- stitution and the American institutions which have made the United States the greatest nation in the world, as the government.

Money Nearly Raised

The money to pay for the completion of the trail from the Third crossing to Denver glacier has nearly all been raised, though few dollars more are still needed. The work has all been completed, and it was well done. An excellent trail has been made which presents one of the most pleasant features of a trip to the glacier. Those who have been over the trail give H. H' Draper credit for getting greater re- suits from the expenditure of money than has ever before been secured in this seclion.
