FIGHT WILL BE SHORT.


 The Republicans of Alaska have no cause to regret the result of the cleo ions on Tuesday last. The attitude of the administration towards rhis territory has been suSh as to cause tfe Republicans to blush with shame for the honesty of the party. Presiden' Taft. as the chief execu- tive has shown q spirit which must wean away from him the support of any man in whose veins flows the blood of independence.
 He has attempted, and has given notice tnat he will again try to foist upon Alaska a form of government to which the people of the North strenuodsly object. The fact that the people of Alaska have told him in the only way open to them that they do not approve of his plan of government for Alaska has apparent | ly made him more determined to press upon the territory form of government which is an insult to its l citizens.
 The recent elections will make it impossible for the administration to | force the appointive measure upon
 Alaska after the coming session of
 Congress Alaskans will probably
 have a fight on their hands when
 Congress convenes but they have the
 knowledge that the administration
 will soon lose its power to work fur
 ther opposition to the wishes of the
 people of Alaska-Cordova North | Star

ENLIST FOR THE WAR.

The battle is renewed. President Taft seems to be determined to make good for the donations to his cam paign fund. in his promise to turn appointing men whom he corpora tions name. as members of a terri torial legislature The fight Is on. Alaska will never submit to any such T form of government.
 Mir Taft cannot give us this cor poration rule unless congress passes I law so empowering him. Then 1t behooves the people of Alaska to be up and doing, Leave no stone un- turned for once such a legislature is given power to make laws for us. you will have nothing left in Alas ka worth five dollars.
 The president now comedies that he will appoint Alaskans to this leg tslature No doubt he found out in the last election in Alaska that he had just as efficient henchmen for the corporations, residents of the territory as he could select from any state in the union, in fact, he seems to think they are a little more sub servient to the Special Interests han any he has in Colorado or New Jersey.
 Taft evidently intends to pass this substitute for the Beveridge bill at the winter session of congress. be- fore the new insurgent members take their seats next March, so 1t behooves us to get busy at once and flood congress with a remonstrance 1874 miles long.
 If this law passes 1t means post ponement of home government for ten years more and by that time there'll he nothing left in the terri tory not "gobbled" by special priv ilegc. worth having.-Cordova Truth.

HOME RULE PETITION.

The petition for home rule for Alaska that is being circulated in own is being largely signed and in l few days it will have been com. pleted. Very few refuse to sign the petition and the majority of these Ire Republicans who refuse to con- tribute in the slightest degree to anything that might be considered a Democratic measure, no matter how firmly they may be convinced that he steps that measure advocates are essential to the welfare of the coun- try.
 All who have not signed the peti- ton should get busy at once and have their names inscribed on the honor roll This is one of the pc titiOns that is destined to bring re- suits, for there is good reason to be- lieve the Democratic congressman in the first session of the Sixty-sec- ond congress. They are aware of the storm of abuse the Republican administration has brought about its ears from all parts of the country on account of its neglect of the Alaska, and they are not likely to place themselves n similar po- sitiOn.
 With Democratic house Alas kans can confidently count on some sort of territorial government, and it is not likely to be the un-American type suggested by President Taft. Such ideas as were embodied in the Beveridee bill are the direct anti theses of those advocated by Dem- ocracy, and there is no room fo- such in any Democratic measures Therefore, if you want home rule for Alaska, and want the congress to know that you want 1t, sign the petition. If you are not approached by any one of the Democratic com. mittee which is circulating the peti- ton, come over to this office and sign it.

WOULD BE GREAT BOON.

If the plans of the company being organized for the purpose of bring ing into the camp couple of core drills materialize. the question of the dep-h to which our quartz deposits extend will very speedily he deter mined The drills would prove an in estimable boon and il is sincerely to be hoped they will be brought in at he earliest possible moment in the spring
 With the core drills the expense of sinking to demonstrate the value of the ground is not much more than one-twen ieth cf that necessary in shaft prospecting. and the results are practically the same. By the methods now being employed it must necessarily take very many months to attain the depths that capital re quires before fl will take hold of a proposition If. however, il could be demonstratcd with core drill that the ore is to be found 10 q great depth there would be little difficulty in onlisting enough outside capital al once to initiate the development Cn a large scale.
 By all means let Us have the cores

WOOD INSPECTION,

\ short time ago the Citizen called he attention of the city council to lie necessity of the appointment of
 wood inspector" Since that time many persons have commented on he proposition to this paper and all advocate the move. They agree that he honest wood dealer, who gives fair measure, could only benefit from he appointment of such inspec- or, as it would eliminate the unfair competition that at present he has 10 put II with; while the man who is now giving unfair measure would have to mend his ways.
 The idea is not new one and is practiced in every progressive city n the states and Canada. Especial ly during the present reign of high prices outside is this branch of the municipal government being strictly conducted, and in many cities raids have been made by the weights and measures inspectors which have brought startling results. The mere appointment of one of the present city officials to the position of wood inspector would deter those who have been making a practice of giving un- fair measure, and it is not at all likely that the inspector would have 70 make many official calls.

For Catarrh ,Te Guarantee a Cure. If We Fail the Medicine
 Will Cost Nothing

When a medicine effects suc- eesSful treatment in a very large majority of cases, and when we offer that medicine on our own personal guarantee that it will cost the user nothing if it does not com pletely relieve catarrh, it is only reasonable that people should be- lieve us, or at least put our claim to a practical test when we take all the risk. These are facts which we want the people to substan- tiate. We want them to try Rexall Mucu-Tcnc, a medicine prepared from prescription of a physician with whom catarrh was a speciality, and who has record of thirty years of enviable success to his record.
 We receive more good reports about RcXall Mucu-Tone than we do of all other catarrh remedies sold in our store, and if more people only knew what a thoroughly de- pendablc remedy Rexall Mucu- Tone is, it would be the only catarrh remedy we would have any demand for.
 Rcxall Mucu-Tonc is quickly ab- sorbed and by it's therapeutic effect tends to disinfcct and cleanse the entire mucous mcmbrancous tract, to destroy and remove the parasites which injure D.a membraneous tissues, to >oo'hc the irritation and heal the soreness, stop the mucous discharge, build up strong, healthy tissue and relieve the blood and system of diseased matter. Its influence is toward stimulating the muco-cclls, aiding digestion and improving nutrition until the whole body vibratcs with healthy activity. In a comparatively short time 1t brings about q noticeable gain in weight, strength, good color and feeling of buoyancy.
 We urge you to try ReXall Mucu- Tone, beginning q treatment to- day. At any time you are not satis- fled, simply come and tell us, and we will quickly return your money without question or quibble. We have ReXaIl Mucu-Toue in two sizes, Remem- Der you can obtain RexalI Reme- dies Only at The RcXall Store.

WINNiNG.

It takes a little courage
 And l little self-control, And some grim determination
 If you want to reach a goal It takes a deal of striving.
 And firm and stern set chin, No matter what the battle,
 If you're really out to win. There's no easy path to glory, There's no rosy road to fame, Life, how ever We may view 1t, Is no simple parlor game; But it's prizes call for fighting For endurance and for grit, For a rugged disposition
 And don't-know-when-to-q You must take a blow or give one You must risk and you must lose And expect that in the struggle You will suffer from a bruise. But you musn't vince or falter, If fight you once begin, Be man and face the battle That's the only way to win.

One of the best papers published n Alaska is the Alaska Citizen of Fairbanks. It has this line across he top of the paper above the head Here shall the press the peoples rights ma.ntain, unawed by influence and unbribed by gain" And do you know, the paper rings out with truth that would cause the reader to believe that it means what 1t says. It announces that its aim Is to publish newspaper" and that its purpose is Ito tell the truth fearlessly," and after you read the paper through It seems that they make good. J.
