In his speech at the Democratic
campaign opening in his home city,
Atlee Pomerene, the Democratic
nominee for lieutenant governor, de-
voted his time chiefly to discussion
Of business methods in the conduct
of public affairs. He said:
Two years ago Democracy under
the leadership of Judson Harmon,
charged the Republicans with extrav-
agance and mal-administration, and
promised the people reform. They
believed him. He was elected gov
ernor, and d. s. Creamer was elected
state treasurer. They have given the
best administration Of their respec-

known in 20 years They have stood

THE OWhERS OF ALASKA

The Times yesterday devoted an editorial to discussing the owner ship of Alaska. It appears that a foolish lawyer named Fink, of Nome, believes that Alaska belongs to the people of the United States, because they paid for 1t. Not at ali, Alaska belongs to those that control it's resources. 1n the course of his evidence Stephen
 Birch showed that the syndicate consists of the Morgans, Daniel Guggenheim, Murray Guggenheim and s. R. Guggenheim. It con- trols the Northern Commercial

BeIiGy9S We Cda Look Alter
 0Gr oHIl Affairs
AS WE ARE PAYING TIE FREIGHT
Tbe North Star Says That We Are En- filled to Have q Say in the Govern- mant Of Our Own cOlltU--- Others in this Section BaIiGYa the Same Thing.

While the trust newspapers c! Fairbanks are sitting oil the DO. lltical fence the Cordova press joins with the Citizen ill d demand lor home rule In an article entitled "N ho Pays the Freigh . the Cor dova North Star says:
 One Of tue objections urged by the lev opposed to home rule in Alaska is that the territory is not selt-supporting. How many ot these stop long enough to think and consider if they can bring facts and figures to support such an ar gurnen? They are simply repeat ing the stock phrase put into circu lation by the corporate interests. They are doing the same when they say that the people would be taxed more for q territorial form ot government.
 \ denial of such thread-bare ar guments is found in almost every public ut,erance; 1t is found in the news and editorial columns of even the trust organs almost daily; every incorporated town ill Alaska which ably manages its own affairs IS evi- deuce 10 the contrary, and the most buTdenSOme form Ot government that could possibly be devised would not place a greater tax apon the people generally than is now exact ed by the government; tax that is unjust and which gives immunity and grants special privileges to certain interests.
 In his speech Friday night at the mass meeting to consider the coal question, Judge Ostrander, in detendlng his letter directed to the president, asking relief, said, in re- terring tO congressional action:
 "The trouble is that they haven't thought that the people are entitled to any consideration. We think we are entitled to some considera tion.
 In last evenings issue of the Al asl,an we find the following, rela tive to conservation:
 The people who are making the new states, who have already paid many millions into the federal treasury for lands to which they have given, by their presence and by the development work they have done, their only real value, ask now that they may be permitted to take care of their internal affairs.
 That is all the people of Alaska want; to be given a chance to look after their own affairs and to choose their own officials and make their own laws. The Alaskan judges now serving and giving satisfaction Is the best evidence that Alaskans are capable Of looking after their own affairs, and that any kind of government of Alaskans, by Alas kans and for Alaskans, and the necessary territorial tax. are pre- ferable to a commission of the cor porations, by the corporations and for the corporations and providing for offices and big salaries and more expensive form of govern ment. The people of Alaska do. not need any instructions in self government; all they want is the right to handle their own affairs in their own way.

SOMETHING DOING IN |DIIAROO A. '. Thorns Thinks Highly
 Oi the Camp AVERAGE RETURNS VERY HIGH
After Spending Seven Months in the Idita- rcd Country, WeI-KGosa ASsayeT is Fa'0Iaby Impressed. and Will Return at al Early Date

\. Y. Thorns, the Fairbanks aS>aEer, has returned from the lditarod. He left Fairbanks or September l6 last. and after q thorough examination of the dis trict expresses himself as very favorabIy impressed with the possibilities of the new dig gingS.
 Mr. TholnS went as far as Langley, l25 miles from the month of Otter. in the Tana. Thence he took a smaller boat as far as Clou"h, whore herest- ed until the freezo-up. He then proceeded by dog team to Rich mond. following the course of the river.
 He visited Otter, Willow, Flat SIate and many smaller creeks. Ther" are two forks known as Flat creek in the district.
 At first Alr. Thorns did not form d very high opinion of the camp, but determined to stay with il, and get into d low grade proposition which could be worked on a large scale.
 After d time things began to brighten up, and developments on Flat creek caused him to al ter his opinion. Drifting towards the creek much better prospects were obtained. After several pannings above and below dis cOVery he was satisfied that the whole surrounding country was good. In order to obtain reliable averages MT. Thorns constructed rocker The high est returns gave S2.7O to the bucket (6 and x pans to the bucket. and the lowest 24 cents. PanningS taken over a 6 12 foot face showed l5 cents.
 Mr. ThOrnS has a 1 ,O00 feet of ground on Bonanza, between the Bonanza and the Glenn aSSOcia- ton claims. As near as can be learned others have as good as he or better. No very big pan nings have been made, but the gold is evenly distributed.
 Flat creek is four or five miles in length, and half mile in width across the bottom of the valley. There are about 30 men at present working lays on Flat creek. Gregg Stewart has brought in on this creek, below discovery. The original stakers were from Rampant.
 The ground is not difficult to work, but is very flat, and ma chinery is necessary. Water is not over plentiful. Most of the ground is suitable for open-cut work. The depth to bedrock averages from II to 17 feet. and in some cases 20 feet.
 There are about 700 men at present in the district, and others are arriving daily. Many have gone in from the Nome and Candle districts and scatter ed over the country, but are now returning to the Iditarod on account of the improved out look.
 Several joined in the rush to Moore creek, 10 miles over the divide in the KuskokWim coun- try. Coarse gold running p cents to the pan was found there, but over a limited area.
 Provisions in the Iditarod are, generally speaking, double the price they are in Fairbanks.
 Mr. Thorns is certain that there will be a good sized camp in the 1ditarod, and is returning there upon the opening of navi- gation.

There II no reason to complain OF the

high praise cannot be bestowed upon all
these persons on the score Of their con-

The Race Of the Cities.

The city census race grows more in
teresting with each announcement re-
garding the largest centers of popula-
tion. Yesterday the Buffalo count was
announced. and II proves q bitter dis
appointment to the people Of the Lake
Erie city. A total OF 423.7I5 is pro-
claimed. a decennial gain OF only 2o.2
per cent. This Is healthy growth,
but inasmuch as it does not equal that
OF Detroit. a near rival OF Buffalo, II
Is regarded as virtually loss. Buffalo
held eighth place in the city rank ten
years ago. coming close behind Cleve-
land. II hoped to overtake Cleveland
in the race this year. but this hope ID
probably destined to be shattered when
the Cleveland figures are announced

unless the latter shows . gain OF more

less Cleveland's gain is less than s4.-
900. In which case the Michigan city
goes to eighth place. II Is hard to
figure on the fourth. NTH and sixth
places, now occupied in that order by
st. Louis. Boston and Baltimore. Each
of the last two cities hopes to better
its position. Boston by gaining enough
to overcome the 1886 margin held by
ST. Louis in 1900. and Baltimore enough
to overcome Boston's 1900 lead OF
51.S35. Boston's outlook 10 brighter
than that Of Baltimore, and 1t may
be that the only shift In this range
Of the rating will be an exchange Of
places by Boston and st. Louis. leaving
Baltimore in sixth place. just ahead Of
Pittsburg. The only interest attaching
to the New York. Chicago and Phila-
delphia figures relates to the percen-
tage OF growth in each case. as there
is little likelihood of any change OF
rank, save as Philadelphia may crowd
Chicago sufficiently to give 1t a claim
to being practically tied. Analysis OF
the returns thus far announced and OF
the 1900 figures OF the cities not yet
finally counted indicates that the 1910
ranking OF the first sixteen cities Will
be New York. Chicago. Philadelphia, st.

Gaynor and Sulzer.

Those New York democrats who last
night declared for William Sulzer for
governor and Mayor Gaynor for Presi-
dent took action that is surprising. They
should have been able to see that the
two preferences do not consist" In
deed. they are as antagonistic as can be-
The situation is such that the demo-
Gratis OF the state are all but intoxicated
with expectation. They are calculating
on Q pronounced triumph. They see their
opponents in a faction fight so bitter
that the like OF IL is not easily recalled
Convention day Is four weeks away, and
every hour OF the time will show an in
crease of republican embarrassments.
And only five weeks will remain between
convention day and election day for paci-
hcation purposes very short period
when we consider the men involved and
the size OF the stake in contention.
1t is for this reason that the demo-
cratic nomination for governor Is now
% attractive. Ambitious men are bark
ing back to 1882. when a somewhat SINH
lar condition Of things existed. and Mr..
Cleveland. then a parochial quantity, was
elected governor through republican de-
fault by a majority approaching two
hundred thousand. And on the strength
VI thot NtSeoAy was hOhAAuotco aoo
elected two years later President Of the
United States.
Can this history be repeated? There
are New York democrats who think II
can and will be, and are active accord
insly.
Today Mayor Gaynor is very popular.
partly by reason OF q good seven months
in ONCE. and partly because OF sympathy
provoked by the dastardly attempt on his
life. But suppose the governorship goes
in November to some democrat now ask
ing for the nomination. and the majority

cans and astonish the country at large.

As The Star recently stated. the Sulxer
gubernatorial boom Is at q disadvantage
because Of this fact. Mr.. Sulzer Is not
reckoned Of presidential size, and his
party wants . man who il, so Is to CAPT.
