to President Roosevelt:
I'm November, 1903, on the strength
Of certain charges contained in q re-
port by Mr.. Bristow, the fourth assist
ant postmaster general, you gave to
the press Of the country a statement
to the effect that gross corruption in
the case Of Assistant Attorney General
Tyner has gone on for number of
years." and after referring to me as
the chief offender" you say that in
my case the corruption took the form
Of favoring get-rich-quick concerns and
similar schemes; In other words, the
criminals, whom 1t was his (my)
sworn duty to prosecute, paid him (me)
for permission to fleece the public I'M
molested" After thus giving your Of
fetal opinion as chief magistrate Of
the nation as to my guilt, you referred
to the fact that there were three I'm
dictments pending against me and you
called upon q fury to do It's duty.
mo verdict of Jury nor sentence Of
Judge could have had such far-reach-
ing or irremedial consequences for me
as this extraordinary official proclama-
ton of guilt by you, and the ordinary
machinery Of justice is probably power
less fully to rectify the injustice done
Fortunately, have now had my day
in court. and according to the law of
the land. have established my limo
cence of any crime or Of any miscon-
duct In office. l instructed my law
yers to lay fully before the court and
jury every act Of my official and pri-
vate career, and to take advantage of
no legal technicalities. The fury was
asked by me and by counsel and by
the court to ignore my age and physi-
cal condition. asked not for an &C.
quittal but for vindication. and so
far as possible, every act Of mine, re-
ferred to In Mr.. Bristow's report, was
placed before them fully and exhaust
lively The jury, without a moments
pronounced me not guilty
on all the indictments
I'm my letter to you, prayed that
my life and mental powers might be
spared until had convinced the Amer

trate, that all my acts have been
honest, honorable and straightfor-
ward In the sight Of God and man. My
hours are few and though
my house is in order and with clear
await from day to day
the irrevocable summons, nevertheless
I cannot close my eyes without first
to you, Mr.. President, as
my chief accuser, to endeavor In so far

be done only to keep the cover down as nearly as possible on the American sen- timent which is isdemanding the right ot self-government. They acted upon the theory that if the people could be made to believe that congress was going to do more for them than they could do for themselves, there would be will inguess to postpone pressing the de- mand for territorial government until another congress should convene. It is one of the old tricks of the lobbyists trade. The people of Alaska will never get any satisfactory legislation until they make it for themselves through a territorial legislature.

That the Goddess of Reform is not too firmly seated upon her newly creat- ed throne in Seattle is evidenced by the fact that the King county republicans have renominated nearly every one of the legislators who betrayed their con- stituents in the last state legislature and have defeated nearly everyone of those who stood faithfully by the peO- ple's mandates.

FAVOR ELF-sovERNMENT

The Valdez Prospector says Valdez has never express d itself in favor of territorial government and that the people along the Yukon do not favor it. In support of the first proposition 1t sets up it's own assertion and to estab- lI-h the second proposition it says the interviews given the senatorial com mi,tee by residents on the Yukon do DO. disclose 8 sentiment in favor of ter ritorial government.
 The fact is that the Valdez chamber of commerce did go on record in favor of territoria, government. Not only that but a representative delegation from that place to the republican con- vention at Juneau supported the plat form plank favoripg territorial govern ment. Afterward the Valdez chamber of commerce decided to eschew the question of territorial government, that was agitatiug the remainder of Alaska, and to 90 it alone. They sent a tory to ioin the lobby at Washington and, to use modern slang, he got soup.
 And as for the report of the territor- ial senatorial subcommittee, it proves nothing. After reaching the Yukon that committee lodged the question of territorial government except when it was forced upon it, and many speeches and interviews supporting territorial government were suppressed One mass meeting, at which the senators were present, where not less than a half dozen speeches. were made, favor ing territorial government, which was taken down by Chairman Dillingham's s,enographer, was not mentioned by them at all. The official report of the senators discloses an effort to make as strong a case as possible against terri torial government, but at the same time the admission is frankly made that the majority of the people of Alaska favor it.
 The people of Skagway are more familiar with conditions on the Yukon than those from any other city ir Alaska. This clty is at the gateway tc the Yukon and through it pas the mul ttude to and from Eagle, the Forty mile. Circle City, Rampant and the Tanaua. The Daily Alaskan has inter viewed scores of men from those points and the best informed of them not only favor territorial g vernment, but they quote the sentiment of their coumuni' ties as favor5ug it.
 The naSses of the Third iu icial di- vision ike those of the First and the Second do went self-goverumeut.

quoting hairdresseE In fact, some
such advice has appeared in print from
time to time. but the theory is absurd.
since above all the hair must be clean
to be glossy. Then one should take the
trouble vigorously to brush the hair
eacn night before retiring. But the
same brush should never be used twice
without cleansing. Since 1t is neces.
sary to have more than one brush, 1t
is well to have them vary, short and
long bristles, as this aids In Kidding
the scalp Of that loose. fine dandruf so
ugly to see scattered through the hair.

brushing is not only irritating to the

CULINARY CoNcElTs.

Because of the odor as well as the
stomach avoid frying bacon or using
lard In the chafing dish.
To keep celery fresh cut of the tops
and put in large preserving jar.
Screw on the top tightly and set in q
cool place.
Lemon and water cress are ideal
garnishing for broiled squads over
which a little butter and minced pars-
ley have been spread.
Many people complain that onion
renders salad impossible for them.
Some of them are not disagreeably af.
fected by a half teaspoonful OF the
juice.
Tart apples and crisp celery cut up
in equal quantities and mixed with
hickory nut meats make an excellent
, salad Serve on lettuce hearts with a
mayonnaise dressing
When tea has been put into the tea
pot It should at once be filed up with
boiling water. 1t is great mistake to
put only little drop of water on the
leaves first filling the pot afterward.
