ACCOMPANIMENT BY THE |
 PEOPLE,

One of the most important politi- cal duties of the American people now is to place an initiative and referendum amendment into the con stituticn of every state in the union Arkansas voted on this question September 12, and was carried by 10000 majority. Of course, the cor porations and certain other inter ests fought the amendment. This was done for the reason that they opposed the people having any more power in the government of the state than they already had-which according to the state federation of labor, was little indeed. Next to Ar kansas, in this struggle for direct legislation, comes Colorado the home of Guggenheim. The people of the Centennial state seem to have had an awakening, are bright chance to vote on such an amend nt, it is declared it will be car ried by tremendous majority There is active propaganda work going on now in about thirty states, and every victory for the movement makes success in every other state just that much easier. Direct legis- latiCn will spread like the secret ballot and the direct primary did After 1t is in successful working order in most of the states, it will be time to agitate making national use of the principle of the people voting directly on measures when they wish to do so.-Typographical Journal

BOARD OF DIRECTORS.

The election of the board of di- rectors at the Development company's meeting which is to be held on Thursday night is of the utmost holders. For on the business acumen of the directors will, to large ex- tent, depend the success or failure of the undertaking. Therefore all stockholders should make point of attending the meeting so they can help in the selection of good men
 The board should be composed of business men who can be depended on to work for the interests of the this are men who themselves have a considerable stake here A knowl- edge of quartz mining, while use full, is not a necessary requirement of the good director, for competent quartz men will be selected by the board to make recommendations as to the property to be selected It Is much more essential that the di- rector should possess good busi- ness head.
 With good board of directors the faith of the community will be established in the enterprise and all will be willing to help at all times. The Citizen believes that the vari- ous large interests should be con sidered in the selection, as the devel- opment of permanent camp here is of more interest to them than tC those not so largely committed. If such men as George Coleman, of the Northern Commercial company; F. R. Peoples, R. c. Wood, of the First National bank, Martin Harrais, of Cinema; F. s. Gordon, Tony Nor dale or several others that could be mentioned were to form the board it is certain the full confidence of all would be extended and there would be little doubt of the ulti- mate success of the undertaking.

a business institution as the grocery store or the dry goods house. And it does not seek charity, but busi- ness.
 And yet, how often does one hear a business man say, T don't propose to do any advertising; I can sell my goods without it" or, i've don't rectly, and not for charitable req sons.
 Fallacious reasoning! Such bus mess man does not stop to think that but for the publicity given the country by the newspapers, he would be lost in a waste, bowling wilder ness, and had he ever so many goods to sell, there would be none to buy them.
 Another business man, alive to the qualities of genuine and legitimate advertising, says, why don't you boost more?" It costs money to boost" just as it does to conduct any other business.
 The reflections here indulged in are strictly impersonal, and are set down solely to describe a condition, that not only prevails here, but verywhere.-Iditarod Nugget.

PUBLICITY AND NEWSPAPERS.

If it were not for the newspapers and publicity given by them to the various goldfelds and mining dis tricts of Alaska, there would be fewer people in the country develop ing it's resources and making busi- ness for the butcher, baker and can dlestick maker, and many other peo- pie. But few of them seem to know 1t.
 And what does the newspaper get in return? In many cases not even decent appreciation of its efforts How many rich miners has Alaska made? Merchants of all kinds? And other business men? And how many newspaper men have made good grubstake? Most of them have ex- isted on the meal ticket plan," or have had angels" or suckers to back them. And newspaper makers are hard workers. Many of them would have made good farmers and blacksmiths, junk dealers and in- sane asylum trusties, so energetic are they - and strong-backed, with al, albeit sometimes of great weak ness of mind else would they seek some better rewarded calling.
 But-to return to our mutton, as the French say no man can long do business where there are no peo- pie, and to get people interested the country must be advertised, and con- stantly. Yet how many people in Alaska realize what the newspapers have done in the past and are do- ing at present? Yes, there are some to be found in all Alaska towns who do their full share. They advertise because it pays, directly and indi- rectly and indirectly, and not for charitable reasons.
 The modern newspaper Is as much

CRIMINAL PROCEEDINGS.

Nearly two weeks having elapsed since the Washington-Alaska bank closed it's doors, without any crim- inal action having been taken against any of those supposedly responsible for its wrecking, 1t is probable nothing will be done until the mat ter is brought up before the regular grand jury which has been sum- moned to convene next month It would appear, however, that if any considerable percentage of the stor- ies being told are true the summon ing of a special grand jury to in- vestigate the matter would be justi- fled.
 On this point the district attorney can be better advised than anyone else, provided all information that is available is placed in his hands. It must always be remembered, how ever, that many man has succeeded in cheating lis friends out of thous- ands of dollars without having brought himself within the reach of the law. While it is admitted that Captain Barnette is directly responsi- ble for the wreck of the bank it must also be taken into consideration that he has at all times been shrewd enough to provide himself with c1ovor ic conceivable that there are no loop holes left for the district attorney.
 The fact that Barnette has of fered through his attorney to re- fund of $50,OOO is, in itself, an ad- mission of weakness, and the fail ure to fix an indictment on him will be all the more regrettable because it is certain he could be compelled to give up a great deal more if he thought he could not otherwise es- cape prosecution.
 Civil suits will most certainly be brought against Barnette, and if these compel him to disgorge the depositors will be benefited to that extent. If this Is the best that can be done we shall have to be sat isfied, but we shall always regret his escape and deplore the condition which exists whereby man who steals the necessary food to support his family must go to jail, while the man who robs his friends, immorally

average persc and if their work was of a permanent character they would have their families with them. If 300 men were working in quartz min in the district il is supposable that at least a third of them would be married and bring in their fami lies. The members of these families would n ed clothing and provisions and the many other commodities dealt in by local merchants, and the business of the camp would be swelled to a greater bulk than by the employment of 500 transient for eisners.
 It would, also. be not alone the miners who would be induced to bring in their families if the camp to-k on permanency. Many of those who are working for wages in town would do the same. and, also, the homes here would be established on an entirely different basis. A man who figures he may be leaving in a year or two is not going to any considerable extent to furnish his house beyond the requirements of necessity. but if he looks forward 10 continuous residence he wants as many comforts as are procurable
 These and a score more reasons ean be quoted to prove that the steady employment of one quartz miner is more beneficial to the camp than that of three or four transient placer miners. If the velopment company acComplishes its object there should be 300 quartz men working in the hills before the end of the summer. Help the com pany and yourself at the same time by buying stock. It's a good thing, push it along

PARTY QUESTION.

During the heat of a presidential campaign is the worst time of all to discuss party principles for the req son that it is almost impossible to passionately because the well-paid demagogue is abroad in the land in all his glory and the subsidized press IS doing the will of it's masters. It is, therefore, proper that the great 4uestions confronting the people be quietly and dispassionately discussed at a time when the mind of the reader can consider the same from an educational standpoint.
 Now that the Republican party Is being called to account by the peo- pie of this land for it's stewardship take up and consider the principles upon which that party stands and On account of which it claims to be entitled to the support of the voters of this country; and for the purpose of laying the principal questions that divide the two great parties before the readers of the Citizen in an hon, est and simple manner, we will un- dertake to run series of short ed itorials, each one complete in itself, with the hope that all who have not clear understanding of the principles underlying those great questions may be at least put upon their inquiry and will lead them to look the question fairly in the face as to whether or not their stand in the past has been consistent with true citizenship, and with the fur ther hope that they may be instru- mental in measure in assisting some to arrive at correct conclu- sion as to where they should stand in the presidential campaign of 1912

A DUTY OWED.

The payment of the dividend by the receivers of the Washington Alaska bank at this time is for the purpose of relieving the present needs of some of the depositors. Further payments will of course be made as soon as sufficient of the outstanding funds of the bank can be gathered in. In this connection those bor- rOwers from the bank whose obliga- tions have become due should make point of meeting the payments at the bank as regularly as If the bank had not closed its doors. By not doing so they are working a hardship on the depositors, and taking most questionable advantage If a condition which should call fol broad minded action on their part.

THAT BANQUET.

A few weeks ago the Citizen called attention to the necessity existing for the Democrats of Alaska. and particularly of this district. to get together for the purpose of effect ing a closer organization. It was sug- gested that a banquet be held on March 15, Andrew Jackson's birth day, to which all Democrats in the country should be invited, the oc- casion to be considered a celebration of the glorious victories at the polls last November.
 That such a celebration should be held on the anniversary of JacksCn's birthday is peculiarly appropriate. as the hero of the battle of New Or leans certainly typified the Demo cracy best liked in Alaska and which is destined soon again to dis tinguish the counsels of the White House. Marse Henry Watterson's slogan of Back to the Constitution is rapidly becoming more popular and a strict adherence to the terms of the grand old document is all that Alaskans are demanding.
 If it is decided to hold a banquet the price of tickets should be placed at a figure at which they would be in reach of all, so that no Democrat could say he was discriminated against. The Citizen would suggest Cbarped

TARIFF FOR PROTECTION,

It is upon tariff for protection that the Republican party mainly claims its right 10 existence It is certainly the most vital question confronting the American people today. The Republican party stands squarely upon the principle of a tariff for protection. Upon this prin- ciple it is absolutely orthodox, upon which it is willing to make any kind or character of compromise whatever Upon the other hand he Democratic party does now and at all times has stood for tariff for revenue only. This constitutes the vital question between the two great parties, and We will attempt 10 discuss the matter from principle for the purpose of arriving at a conclusion as to which of the two parties has the greater right on its side
 To begin with we take the posi- tive stand that tariff for protection cannot be justified upon any ground of justice, morality or economics, and to this statement we challenge successful contradiction. For the present and for the sake of this ar gument we propose 10 leave out of consideration the question of protec- tion and will concede for the sake of this argument at this time that protection of American industries rests upon sound principle, and now only challenge the method of pro

curing this protection; that is to say, by a tariff.
 That tariff is a tax is conceded by all and it is conceded also by all to not fall equally upon all for the simple reason that this tax is paid exclusively by the consumer of the taxed article. Therefore. only the consumers pay the tax, and he discrimination in this respect is unfair and unjust. Not alone is il unfair and unjust in this way, but it reaches the status of an outrage when the fact is taken into Consid eration that the great bulk of this tariff tax is paid, not to the govern ment, but to the trusts who have control of the articles upon which the tariff is levied.
 To a person who would give the matter any serious thought what ever he will agree at once that even if this ridiculous system was to
  between the consumer of the tariff- taxed articles, and the manufacturer or producer of the same the govern ment would at least open a set of books and ascertain, first, the cost of production of the article in this country; second, the cost of produc- ,f against which protection is sought and the cost of transportation be tween that foreign country and this country, and would thus be enabled to ascertain exactly how much pro tt ction the producer of the article in this country would need, and the government would see to it that he would get no more than the balance on the books would show most orthodox Republican will have to admit that any excess given to the producer by way of a tariff tax over and above the balance shown that he would be entitled to would be plain robbery and nothing else But We sincerely urge that if protection is right the only means of giving protection consistent with justice and morality would be, as above stated, to first ascertain the exact amount of protection required in each instance by getting the cost of protection in this country, the cost of production in the foreign country, and then raising the money by direct taxation on property and paying in money to the producer of the article, the amount necessary to protect him and keep his indus try running on the American plan. Then the burden would fall equally upon all property alike, and any other method of taxation is tyranny and unjust from any standpoint of reasoning
 purpose of showing up the system in it's ugly reality, but with the full un- derstanding that at present there is no way provided by the federal government for collecting of direct taxes fer the purpose of running the government. We are arguing this question from the standpoint of those who pay and not from tn standpoint of those who collect those enormous sums of money that have built up, maintains and feeds every trust that now exists in the United States.
 We will elaborate next week
