The demand for selt-gOvernment is not all sentiment, good-sound, healthy American sentiment though It is-it Is business. The only businesslikea aud com mon sense way of running the affairs of this district, like with those of any other place, is to have them managed by the people who are concerned. No legislative body holding sessions in Washington on the Atlantic seaboard from 4,OOO to 5000 miles away from Alaska is competent to furnish legisla- tion for this district and all it's varied interests, even if we have delegate there to tell 1t how to do 1t.

THAT TERRITORIAL CONVEN'
 TON

The statement has otten- been made by Junesuites that the convention that was held at Seattle last fall was com posed largely Of Seattle people. It has even been said that 75 per cent. Of the delegates were residents of that place, holding proxies from Alaska. The facts are quite the reverse. Some people who are acquitted with nearly all Of the delegates and proxy holders in that body. personally or by reputation checked over the list of their names yesterday, and it was disclosed that6 6I Of the so odd votes were represented by people known to be Alaskans. Nine Of them were by Sesttleites-and 10 were unknown by those who did the check ing. Most of the unknown were Proo' ably Alaskans of the bona fde variety. F. NJ. Woodruff, formerly of Eagle, who cast two of the 67 Alaskan votes, has since located in Seattle, and W. J. Hills, who represented Snettisharn, has left the district.
 Those who are known to be located at Seattle, who cast nine votes, include John c. Price. who resided at Skagway for six years; John J. Burns, who resided in Alaska for eight years; Capt. D. B. Jarvis, who was collector of cus- toms for several years and identified with Alaska for many years previous to his term of office; E. W. Johnston, Skagway pioneer, and man who spends much of his time at Nome, where he owns one of the richest mines in the district, and Capt, o. J. Humph- rey.
 What is more to the point is that the sentiment breathed by the platform of the convention and the speeches dei7- cred therein permeates Alaska from Nome to Ketchjkan. It's principal feature was the "demand' for "the ap- plication to Alaska of the fundamental American principle of self-government and elective representation in con gress." That indicates the spirit which dominated the convention. It was emphasized by the election of Gov Swinetord, one of the best and most stalwarc representatives of pioneer Alaska in the district, and the best rep resentative in all the north of the principle of Alaska for Alaskans to re- present is at Washington. He also was the chairman the convention.
 The principles advocated by the convention are those which must be advocated by any political party or organization in Alaska which hopes to secure a corporal's guard for follow ing, whether it's members believe in them or not.
