Those who would like to see Gov. Swiueiord, the veteran who has fought Alaska's battles against all the world for a score of years, the first representative of this district in congress, could not ask for anything better than 8 contir- nation of the pusilanimous attacks of the Ketchikan Journal against him. Gov, SwineiOrd's reputation is too well established to be damaged by the petty fslsehoods with which that paper charges its bean shooter. His bigness will be all the more apparent because of the extreme Httleness of his as sailant.

A Juneau paper says that everyone in Alaska should work for the passage of the bill appropriating money for the capitol building at Juneau. Of course, of course; and again of course! Any thing Juneau wants for her very own is worthy the united efforts of every body in the district. But when all the people of Alaska desire representation or anything else that concerns all the district, alike, then how about it. Why, let them get it, if they can, while Juneau snarls and ridicules, and her papers abuse!

BAD FOR PERKINS

It looks as though George W. Perkins, ylce-president of the New York Life Insurance Company, who contributed for that eompsnd s50,OOO to the republican campaign fund in 1904, is in for 1t, notwithstanding that Pros ecutiug Attorney Jerome said he had committed no crime, and roasted the ssYellow Press" for insisting that he and other milliouaires be punished. Re fusing to put evidence before the grand jury for the purpose of securing an in- dictment against Perkins and others, Jerome made a complaint before a magistrate and had Perkins arrested, in that way giving him an opportunity 10 sue out @ writ of hsbeas corpus before justice of the supreme court. This was done, Justice Greenbaum, of the supreme court, has just dismissed the writ, and continued the arrest Of Perkins. Additional legal steps have been taken, but unless Justice Green baum be overruled, the former partner of J. Pierpout Morgan will be bound over to await the action of the grand jury, and Mir. Jerome will have to sub init his evidence after all.
