Alaska Has Day at Mining
 Congress

The American Mining Congress passed resolutions favoring an elective delegate is congress for Alaska. They were not passed without opposition however. The Portland papers say the fight over them was the most in- teresting that took place during the session of the congress.
 The committee on resolutions re- ported against the adoption of the Alasha resolution on the ground that it was a political matter and had no proper place in the congress. They were passed over the head of the com mittee.
 The Alaskan resolutions were as follows:
 Whereas, The District of Alaska has a population of nearly 10000 American citizens, a large majority of whom are miners and prOspectors; and,
 Whereas, These pioneers have no way of obtaining redress for their grievances except by a personal appeal to Congress; and,
 Whereas, Their appeals must be made to Representatives or Senators from ether localiti,s who have the well fare of their own districts and consti- tuents to care for, and consequently these personal appeals have as yet been of no avail or benefit; and,
 Whereas, It is the wish and desire Of all Alaskans that they be represented in the Congress of the United States by adelegate a elected by the popular vo,e otthe people, to the end that such laws smay be enacted that will be 10 the benefit of mining ard other interests: therefore, be it
 Resolved, That the American Min ing Congress, in its regular convention assembled in Portland, Or, August, 1904, do hereby indorse this wish of the Alaskans, as by so doing the great mineral storehouse of the north land will be more speedily developed; and be it further
 Resolved, That this congress will use every honorable means to secure to Alaska that rebresentation our fore fathers fought for at Bunker Hill: ard be it further
 Resolved, That this congress appeal to the Congress of the United States for their consideration at the next session, asking for immediate action, to the end that these hardy Americans may enjoy the privilege of represents tion according to the rights guaranteed iu our Constitution.
