WICKER SHAM STANDS FOR AN
 "AMERIcAN". GOVERNMENT.

Say to the people Of Skagway that. l will do every thing I can to get an. American form of government for Al aska and will oppose any other kind
 These were the words used by Del. egase James wickersham in his wire to Dt.L.s. Keller yesterday, in which Mir wickersham also explained why he could not visit Skagway and ex- pressed regret over the unavoidable circumstances that prevented this.
 By stating that he will eudeayor to get an American" form Of govern ment for Alaska and oppose any othea kind, Delegate wicksrsham undoubteGs ly has in miad, not only the present system, whereby Alaska stands as a political orphan forced to beg crumbs rom the hands of an indifferent Con gress; but looks further ahead and considers the bureaucracy which has been suggested by and seems so dear to the heart of President Taft.
 It was felicitous stroke of phras- eOlOgy in which Wickersham intimat,s that he will fight for an American" government for Alaska, for the pre- sent system is certainly un-Americau and the plan suggested by President Taft, Of having our affairs conducted by bureau at Washington, appointed by the President, with five resident" commissioners, also appointed by the President, is suu more un-American and distastetul to the people of Al, agka.
 FiliPinOs, Hawaiians, Porto Ricans: these alien peoples have been talk en under the flag of the United States and ten years afterwards been accord. ed full political freedom; Cuba is al, lowed to govern herself as she pleases. but Alaska, one of the oldest terri tories of the United States. is still held under a system of political bond age that hardly has a counterpart in The civilized world.
 It will not do to say, as Taft said, that "it is not safe to entrust Alaska with home rule, as the population is too widely scattered and migratory"
 At least six other territories of vast are have been granted self government when they had less per, manent population than Alaska now has.
 It will not suffice to broadly intm- ate that Aaskans are a people by temperament unfitted to conduct their own affairs.
 These things are not true and the proof that they are not true is ample to convince any fair minded person.
 A.stiu more cOgent reason for hom rule is that at least 80 per cent of  the people of Alaska want it, are de- handing it, have repeatedly expressed. their preference for it at the elections Of the delegates. When a whole peO- pie unite in demand for political lib erty surely this demand should have some weight. some slight considera- ton. and it is un-Amerlcan, to state it mildly, instead Of needing such a protest, to suggest that these people be practically deprived of their pre- sent privileges and be governed by al bureaucracy.

plenty of business on Saturday, last.

tant wake up and compare notes

The service given by the Mau-

worked like heroes to keep the cars
moving and very little inconvenience
was noticed.
One of the series of pictures

Sunday was an excellent moral les

toward older people and the choice
