Whatever objection the senator had to MT. Powell seems to have been removed and the confirmation of the nominee will be the eliminating event of the patronage agreement entered into early this session by Governor Hoggatt, National Committeeman Shackleford and Delegate Wickersham, at the request of President Taft. All others of the men agreed upon have been nominated and all but one con- frmed.
 There is room today in Alaska even under existing conditions, for a large population-men and women who are made of right warp and wool. For the idle, the vicious, there is no place, but for the strong and industrious and courageous, wide field is offered for their activities-a field in which they car, if they will, become more than hewers of wood and drawers of water, where honest and patient effort and en- Iarged opportunities will bring more certain reward than can, in the very nature of things, be found in the con- gested cities of men. To these Alaska points the way; if they have some means of their own so much the better for them, but. if they can muster naught else save stout hearts and will ing hands, their efforts will not be un- rewarded.-Katalla Herald.
