HOME RULE AND GOOD ROADS.
OFFICIAL CITY PAPER.

The shrcwd and cntcrprisiuE citi. zcus oG Seattle, desiring to make adequate return for the golden flood that has gone from this country into. the states through Seattle. set aside the,comiug Saturday. Jan. 80, as Al. aska Day, and upon this day all Sc athletics and their friends are request ed to mail literature throughout the country representing the needs of Al. aska.
 This would have been a good idea had it been properly managed. In the first pace Seattle decided that Alaska's chie,est need was good roads. That Alaska does need roads and needs them badly is udisputo- ble; but there is one other thing that Alaska needs Dorc-and wants more:-that is home rule.
 Seattle had two good reasons for choosing good roads as the subject of her agitation In the first place good roads mean more gold for Seat ue. In the second place, as long as Alaska has not home rule we are in a large measure dependent upon the good will oI the Washington congress sional delegation for needed Icsisla- liou.
 But beggars should not be choosers. Perhaps We are over critical in exam ming the motives that actuated the worthy people oG searte. It may be after all that they were inspired by pure beueyoleuce. But this much is certain. The affair has been misman- aged. The committee on military af. fairs has already recommended that the Alaska RoaI Commission be given an appropriation of SS5O,OOO the exact amount asked for This prac. ticany settles the question of the road appropriations and no one know it better than the business men Of Seattle As far as increasing the roads appropriation they will be bu barking at the moon.
 It is significant that Seattle has never hintcd at urging home rule for Alaska. After years of intimate ac- quaintance it would seem that they still deem Alaskaus some laps behind the Phidppinoes when it comes to self government. It would seem so, We repeat. In reality the Seattle business men know our needs and know the character of our people. Only ulterior motives can account for their blindness on the home rule qnes' ton.
 Let us take what We can get. Al aska day will at least serve to ad- vertise us; and give us sufficient ad- yertising and We will get home rule. Let Seattle go ahead; but the next time they have an Alaska day it would be we'll to consult representa- tive Alaskans as to what it is we really want. Another suggestion is that next time they do not wait until an appropriation is settled before ask ing for it.
