Vanwyck, June 18.-The home

destroyed by fire last week, but the

SACRIFICING THE WOMEN

The temperance question is taking some queer angles just now. Here is Jane Adams, of Chicago, a wise, help. full aud sympathetic worker among tue poor, the wretched and the criminal, defending the saloon under the existing conditions Of society, while Boniort's Wine and Liquor Journal, an organ of the liquor interests of the country, is so alarmed at the prohibition sentiment now sweeping many parts of the coun- try that it reads the saloonkeepers a scathing lecture and says 1t Is the open disregard of tho law by so many oi them that has brought about this state of affairs. syR ~

tion that the real Alaskans are not favorable to the creation of territorial government. On the contrary, It went on record, in the strongest and most unmistakablo terms, in the demand that the benefits of the ordinance of l7s7, the basis of every law for the gov ernnent Of the organized territories of the United States, be extended to Alas ka, "ln order that the people may have voice in their own affairs"
 The ordinance of l7S7 was passed by the continental congress for the gov ernuent of the Northwest territory, ceded to the federal government by Virginia in l7S4, The distinctive fea- lures of chat ordinance which has been followed in the organization of every single territory acquired since the foundation Of the government, with the sole exception ot Alaska, was In sec. tlou g, which prescribed that "so soon as there shall be five thousand free male inhabitants of full age In the district, upon giving proof thereof to  the government they shall receive full authority, with time and place, to elect representatives from their counties or townships to represent them ia the gen. eral assembly"
 L2cal selt-government for every ter. rltory has been basic principle since ,the first territory outsi le of the borders Of any of the original states was scquIr- ed by the federal government, 6 prIn- ciple which has been extended to Ha- vail, to Porto Rico, and more recently to the Philippines. Alaska remains tbe one aud o4ly territory Of the United States which has been deni1d that which has been freely conceded to every other like territory for l2O years. under 8 principle established before the constitution of the United States was adopted, and never since departed from save in the one instance.
 The representatives Of the RepublI- eau party In the territory, by an over whelming majority, have resfirmed that principle and demanded in the most striking way that 1t be applied to the territory in which they reside. The opposition has shrunk to nothing

The Wickersham letter of resigna- tion was made public in the News of Tuesday. One of the principal reasons for the resignation is the enmity Of Governor Hoggatt. The letter says: "At the recent term of court held at Juneau, on special request of the attor- ney general, had the misfortune to de- eide an important case involving the case of young lawyer in a way contra Try to Governor HogPatt's views. ThereupoD the governor withdrew the friendship which rightly valued, and criticised me, so that the loss of his confidence became publicly known. HiS views were unjust and presump- tious, but his opposition and his refusal to support the court added greatly to my burden"
 President Roosevelt in reply to the letter of resignation says the resigna- tion is cepted vith regret.-Seattle Post-Intelligencer.

LET THER STAY OUT

Because The Alaskan took occasion to mention the fact that the represen- tatiou which Juneau sent to the recent Republican convention was composed of Democrats and represented the in- tsrests of the Tresdwell and Persever- ence mines the Juneau Dispatch sd- mOnlshinglY says to this paper:
 "we do not understand why the sEAgway Alaskan wishes to insult many of the good citizens of this sec don by a continued attack upon the large industries Of this section. Neither the Treadwel or Persever- sDce companies are interested locally ln politics.
 i've hope that never again will tue DlSpltch be forced to call the attention of our ueighboring press to these unfair tactics"
 Things have come to 8 sorry pass, indeed, fl a Republican newspaper can not critIcise the rape of Republican convention by corporations who uss Democrats to create discord in its proceedings. How is 1t that the loudest mouthed bomb burler in the convention was one who is employed by the Tread we'll company? By what strange line of reasoning did 1t come about that the most pronounced wire pullers in the recent deliberations were under the tutelage of the two Gining corpora tlons2 Was 1t because they were not lu politics? The best manner to be adopted by the mining companies, If they do not desire to do sll their min ing iu the newspapers like Colonel Sutherland, "who has large mining interests in Alaska" is to pay more

The Newcomer idea is lopsided be- cause 1t is all for the men. A weak spirited drunkard will be happy to shift the burden of his reformation upon g woman's shoulders; scheming one will welcome 1t as chance to have some woman keep him in g.n. But what of the women who are to fight for craven aud lazy men and what of the children who will come into this world with the curse of drink upon them?
 The way 10 resume, as Salmon P, Chase used to say, apropos of the money question, is to resume. The way to stop drunkenness is to stop. And stop alone. Then marriage can be consid- cred. Before that time it is crime against women, children and the state.

Ah auIRAGE

The Juneau Daily Record, the paper that has tOra ita Shift clear ap .o the neck detending Governor ESsgatt from imaginary attacks, puOiishes the fol- lowing dispatch from Fairbanks with exultant joy:
 Judge James wiokersham, in a signed statement ip one of the local papers, has come out with the admission that his resignation was forced by the loss of Governor Hoggatt's friendship. He states shat certain admissions he made in case iu Juneau were antsRohlStic to the friends of Hoggatt and that thIH resulted in HOEgatt turning against him.
 All we have to say Is that if Judge Wickershum made that statement 1t Is terrible-lf 1t is true, 1t is damnable.-- Douglas News,
 Yet much of the sympathy that has gone to Judge WickerSham heretofore will be taken from bim when bis side of the case is read. When Governor Hoggatt went to Wichersham and asked him to pollute his office; to disre' gard his oath to faithfully and impar- nally discharge the dutieS he had sworn to, it was the province oI Judge Wickersham, and honest men would expect 1t of him, to forthwith punish Hoggatt for contempt, He certainly merited 1t much more than Louis K. Pratt, who has lately been the recip- ient of several fines by Wickershsm. Looking at 1t 10 a charitable light Judge Wickershsm acted cowardly in not meting out 10 HogRstt what he SC richly merited. The time for him to act was when the outrage was first preached to him and not wait and cry over IL after he saw he had lost the friendship of the man who had made an effort to have him commit 8 crime,
The daily Alaskan., 1907-11-29

this sort can be urged for the views which Judge John R, Newcomer, of the Harrison street police court, in Chi csgo, has just handed down from his bench. They are raw, aabby and sen tlmeutal worSe than that, they are ell awrY. ~
 Judge Newcomer holds that marriage is cure for rdrunkenness; that jour neY to the probate court Is better than . trip to the gold Cure and adds hat go 10 90 pr cent of the drurkards are bachelors.
 This is a nice. plausible sentiment. It fills the ear well and doubtless 1t rolled out from Judge Newcomer in- pres.ively. Just now 1t seems to be the functions of great many Of the judges to be professional reiormerS. They must have lot of theories on the side to supplement the statutes pr, in too man, cases, to thwart them. The judicial faddist and sentimentalist has taken the place of the jud ctal hu- morist.
 All the sympathy of the Newcomer remedy goes to the man who drinks be. cause he is unmarried. What rotl He drinks because helikes to drink. Mat rimony has no place ln the equation II 1t did he would pull up now, grow strong of purpose and firm Of nerves, and then, wh he was sure of himself, be would hunt up some good girl and ask her to go through life with him.
 The man who will not reform before be is married certainly will notdo so, humsnly speaking, after. Before that time he was on probation. He had to show himself worthy of the girl he loved and wished to marry, He had to give her some pledge in a decent, we'll ordered bachelor life that he would be strong, loving, provident. chaste, tenn perate and manly as a husband
 The danger of the sentiments of Judge Newcomer lies In the inaamms- ble romanticism of too many women They believe It Is heroic to marry a man to save him. Their harf-baked noddles don't contain the idea that they are more apt to lose themselves. It js all 30 sweet; so LSuraitanlibbeyishi just like story. ''
