Phil May and the Merchant.

A short time before his death MT. Phil May, the popular artist, re ceived a circular letter from an American business house engaged in the sale of dried fruit, inviting him to compete for prize to be given for the best design to be used for advertising their wares. Only one prize was to be given, and all un- successful drawings were to become the property of the fruit men.
 After reading the circular Phil May sat down and wrote the follow ing letter:
 The Directors, Dried Fruit Com
 pany:
 "Gentlemen-I am offering a prize of half a crown for the best speci- men of dried fruit, and should be glad to have you take part in the competition. Twelve dozen boxes of each kind of fruit should be sent for examination, and all fruit that is not adjudged worthy of the prize will remain the property of the an dersigned It is also required that the charges be paid on the fruit so forwarded. Yours very truly, Phil -May"-Dawson News.

ASSAY PLANT IS
 ENLARGED

L. M. Drury is one Fairbanks res ident who has every confidence in the future of the Fairbanks region as quartz camp. The practice of his profession necessitates frequent visits to most of the quartz proposi tions within a radius of 30 miles oi Fairbanks, and what he has seen has been sufficient to convince him that this region ranks second to none in opportunities offered to the experienced prospector.
 As an instance of the faith which MT. Drury has in the permanency of the camp he has just made con siderable additions to his assay plant which place 1t on level with any thing of its kind in Alaska.
 He has installed pulverizer, which will take the place of the old buck board machine. The pulverizer will be run by power, and will grind the rock to a very fine pulp.
 A furnace has also been imported having twice the capacity of the old one. A new cupel machine of the very latest pattern has been added

ONCE MINER, NOW
 A MILLIONAIRE

One hears from time to time of the great development of British Co lumbia Canada's province on the Pa. Cific, but its distance makes ii hard to realize what this means. Let Us give some history to illustrate 1t. Long ago, somewhere in about
 1850, the Hudson's Bay Company dis covered coal near its station at Ma naimO, Vancouver Island Practical miners were brought from England to work it, and among these was Robert Dunsmuir After some time the Nanaimo mine passed into the hands of the Vancouver Coal com pany, and Robert Dunsmuir ceased connections with it. He had his eyes open, however, and while wandering in the bush about three miles north of the original pit, he discovered a
 broad vein of coal which his expert ence told him was far superior to
 what had hitherto been mined. He kept his secret until in 1870 he sue ceeded in interesting in it the ad-
 miral on the station, Rear-Admiral and Lieutenant Diggle, of the Brit, ish gunboat Boxer, the last especial ly being man of considerable means They formed the Wellington Colliery company and as they were able to work the surface of the claim by means of an incline, began put ting up coal which soon command
 ed the Pacific coast market for steam and domestic use. The admiral and | their profits, sold out to their other partners, who formed the firm oi | Dunsmuir Diggle & Co. to continue | the business. After a few years l Lieutenant Diggle sold out to Duns | muir for it is said, S300,000. The l development of the mines was main tained New pits were opened, and | the export increased year by year Some time ago they were offered, ac
 cording to report, by the Canadian
 Pacific railway s3,000,O00 and refus
 ed. Now Messrs. Mckenzie & Mann
 of the Canadian Northern railway
 have bought them for $9,000,000 ant

was broken up by hoodlums it is de liberately misleading it's readers. When the News Miner sends a mes sage to the coast in a similar strain it is doing worse; it is playing dirty politics.
 NIT. Shackleford deliberately insult ed the people who assembled to hear him He was their guest: and it is the worst of bad breeding to insult ones host. When Mir. Shackleford in. timated that if the people elected Wickersham they would elect Dr Cook. he was hissed, and rightly SO It was then that Mir Shackleford re alized his mistake, and retired from the debate.
 The people of the Panama are not hoodlums and they did not break UT the debate. The noisiest interrup tion came from a supporter of Shac kleford. MT. Timmins.
 Apart from this aspect of the question, was it wise on the part of the Miner to brand as hood lums all who did not see eye tc eye with Shackleford? The editor oi the News-Miner should remember that he is daily rubbing shoulders and do ing business with the people whom he is insulting

months after his appointment with successor absconded from the terri tory within six months after his ap- pointment, just ahead of a warrant for his arrest for embeZzlement; and thus Alaskan official scandal began. But one out of eighteen United States district judges in the territory has served out his term of four years and been reappointed and confirmed | Either they were a bad lot or the department of justice, which appoint
 ed and removed them, was incompe- tent in the performance of its duty, or both. The marshals and district attorneys appointed on that distant | frontier, where honesty in officials
 means much more than it does near
 CT the eagle eye of the appointing power, have been equally as unfortu-
 nate or incompetent, for in twenty | five years but two of each served out their terms of office. The scan
 dals arising from this rapidly rotat- | ing carpet-bag government did not
 arise from any lack of good character
 of the people of Alaska, but either from the incompetency of the off
 cials appointed or appointing.
 Alaska now has 110 persons with | in her borders to each 1000 square miles therein When created ter ritory and given a power to elect a
 territorial legislature, Michigan had but 12 persons to the 1000 square miles; Dakota but 15; Indiana but 20; Missouri but 25; Utah but 31. When the great territory northwest of the Ohio river was organized and the ordinance for it's government was passed there was but 15 persons therein to every 1000 square miles,
 Nine territories were organized with an elective legislative assembly hay ing less than 50 persons to the 1000 square miles, and $ others having less
 than 100 to that area.
 Her first great need is that of
 an elective territorial legislature with
 it's powers so fairly and carefully linn
 ited that it may aid in the develop
 ment and growth of the territory by
 the passage of ordinary local legisla-
 tion, which congress will not spare
 the time to consider.-ketchika

How RaWhide Was Named.

Rawhide, Nevada, was so named from a mailbox on the old govern ment road. Two men were pros pecting away off in the desert and had located a claim few yards from the road. They set up post and put mail box on it, and as a rawhide on the outside of it. Prospec. tors soon got to calling it The Raw, hide Box" The day came when these men struck it rlch," and the gov. ernment road became the main street of town of 5000 people, and the name stuck. ck.'-Ketchikan Miner.

SATURDAY
OUR POLICY.

In placing this issue before the public We think it opportune to give a brief outline of the future policy of The Alaska Citizen.
 The Alaska Citizen is and will re main a Democratic paper. It was founded by the proprietors to voice the sentiments of Democracy in the Panama Valley. and its columns will al all times be open to those who have anything 10 say in furtherance of Democratic principles
 With regard to the present status of the Democratic party in Alaska We think that the leaders of the party deserve the severest censure for their failure to nominate can didate for delegate at the Juneau Convention Had they not failed in this obvious duty there is not the least doubt that the elections would for our cause Alaska is essentially a Democratic community There is probably a larger percentage of Dem, ocrats in Alaska than in any state in the Union, and that our chosen leaders should have neglected to avail themselves of the opportunity presented this year of sending a Democratic delegate to Congress Is as regrettable as it is incomprehen- sible.
 But the cause of Democracy is hy no means lost. We shall Contin- ue 10 fight until victory is attained, because We believe that the victory of Democracy means the salvation of Alaska Nothing of permanent value can be obtained for this country from the Republican party Commis- sion plans Beyeridge bills, mili. tary oligarchies may be thrust upon us during the next two years; but true liberty will never be ours until we obtain self-government. and the Republican party will never grant us that.
 In the meantime we must make the best of what we have. Wherever possible-that is to say, wherever We do not think the interests of the people of Alaska are threatened-we shall support the elected delegate But we reserve to ourselves at al times the right to freely criticize his actions. where We think them inim ical to the welfare of the country

HOODLUMS S?

The News-Miner, organ of the Mor- ganheims, is intensely annoyed at the ignomnious defeat of Louis P. Shackleford, leader of the regular or hidebound Republicans. So greatly is that paper incensed that the editor, in blind rage, wires to other Morgan helm organs in Alaska that the de bate was broken up by hoodlums. That statement is false.
 It is almost impossible for an audi ence to remain dumb throughout a political debate. It is impossible for a thousand or more people to ab- stain from expressing their approval or otherwise of the various argu- ments adduced, and no debater would have it so. The applause which greet ed Mir. Shackleford when he rose to speak for the first time must have been sweet to his ears; the approba, tion with which some of his remarks were received must have tickled his vanity; and the attention paid to other parts of his speech must have an impression upon his audience. But and here was the cause of his un- doing-Mr Shackleford allowed him self to be carried away by the per sonal animosity which he feels to- ward the delegate He grew violent; he raved; he clinched his teeth and shook his fists in the face of his ad- versary. Was that gentlenanly be- havior? Was that the way a visitor should conduct himself in the home town of his opponent? We think not. Once Mir. Shackleford lost his temper he lost his cause in the Tan ana Valley. And he knew it. There was no excuse for him. His training at the bar should have taught him self-control.
 But even then the audience was not demonstrative. It disapproved of his statements, and when eight or nine hundred persons murmur there is bound to be a little noise. But there was no hoodlumism. When the News-Miner says that the meeting

EDITOR SAYS DEEMS WILL WIN

iv -snius frvI Washington Co Har,cy ". ScoJ,, the G-u.as e.. tor of the Portland Oregonian, in 6 Seattle ines interview predicted that the Democrats will carry the next national house and that the Re publicans will be defeated in the presidential election of 1912, but not by the old Democracy. Just what he meant by that he did not say but here is the talk:
 The Republicans will lose con trol of the house of representatives at the coming election and two years from now the opposition-lt will not be the old Democracy-will elect a majority of the senate, of the house of representatives and the president of the United States" said Col. Scott.
 "Beveridge has no chance of cleo tion in Indiana because of factional strife there, such as exists in Iowa. Deliver and Cummins, in Iowa, have started anew the factional quarrels in the Republican fold The result will be that Iowa will vote in the primaries for the Deliver Cummins slate, but the Democrats will elect the congressman.
 The direct primary has created and will continue to create factional disputes which cannot be healed All is chaos in Washington and the day of the Republican party is about ended.
 ''I believe that Col Roosevelt will mildly endorse President Taft, and that he will not be a candidate for president in 1912"

UNFAIR COMPETITION

A circular letter has been received by several businessmen in Fairbanks notifying them that an agent from a Tacoma firm of printers will short y visit Alaska after orders.
 While local merchants are quite within their rights in sending out side for their printing, there are many reasons why the practice should not be indulged in. Fairbanks business men have repeatedly com plained of the unfair competition of Montgomery Ward X Co, and yet there are several firms which pat ronize outside printers to the detri ment of local industry.
 What difference is there between private individual sending outside for supplies which could be obtained locally and a business firm doing the same thing? None at all, If anything, the business man is the worst offender He should realize that trade is reciprocal and that money sent out of the country is lost to the community.
 It is not only selfish policy, it is also bad business. If everybody bought direct from Tacoma, Seattle or Chicago where would the local storek keepers be? They could not exist.
 These Seattle and Tacoma printers care nothing for Alaska. They pay no taxes They do nothing for the development of the country. They invest none of their capital here, and make their customers pay for their transportation and their hotel bills while in Alaska. They are only after the money. In addition to this their work is usually unsatisfactory frequently delayed and sometimes lost enroute If incorrect it can not be returned, owing to the high freight rates.
 Considering the wages paid in Alaska, and the beavy initial cost of installing printing plant, the rates charged by local printers are not by any means high. As mat ter of fact no printer in Alaska has ever made money. Nearly $l50, 900 has been invested in printing plants in Fairbanks alone, and not a cent in dividends has been paid on this large amount
 Merchants who make practice of sending their printing orders outside should be boycotted by the public. They are enemies to the camp. Why should Fairbanks peo pie pay high prices to traders who do nt patronize local industries?

and S1tka were eStaDllSneu ana per manent towns and marts of interna- tional trade before Jefferson pur- chased Louisiana. These towns and St. Michael, Wrangell and a dozen more were established trading cen ters before California was acquired and the great cities of the Pacific coast were founded. The first church es and schools on that coast, north of Mexico, were established in Alas ka, and some of those early establish ments yet modestly continue their la bors. Alaska has been under the complete dominion of civilization longer than any state or territory west of the Mississippi river and north of California. No Indian war, or any other war, ever reddened her soil with blood, and her Indian, Rus sian and American peoples have al ways lived together in peace and and friendship.
 Alaska now has more school chil- dren in actual attendance in public schools within her borders than Mis- sissippi, Indiana, Michigan, or Da- kota had white settlers when they were each organized into territory and given an elective assembly!
 There is, however, dark side to the Alaska picture, but one which was not made dark by the people of Alaska. In 1884 an organized gov ernment was established there and the first territorial officers appointed. The first territorial judge was re- moved from office within eighteen
