OFFICIAL PAPER.
NOME, ALASKA, JUNE 20, 1911.
THE ALASKA BILL.

The house committee is about ready to report back the Alaska bill. and will recommend its passage We wonder what it is like, and if it is the original bill introduced by the Hon. Beveridge?
 It appears that congress is waking up to the fact that we need some little token in the way of legislature to ap- pease the ranking in our bosoms when ever we think Of what congress is do- ing for us
 If Alaska was a dead horse and did not pay good returns like the islands Uncle Sam acquired during the war with Spain we would always apply the soft pedal when making kicks. But Alaska has been one of, and today is. the best investment Uncle sam has ever made, or perhaps ever will make during his existence.
 The balance of trade combined with the gold output is way in favor of Alaska and instead of being an extra taxable country on the other states and territories We are producer, and big revenue payer on the original investment.
 One great trouble with the people in this section of Alaska, is, they dc not know what they really want They are here today and there tomorrow al- ways looking for Home, Sweet Home . which is located in ninety nine cases out of a hundred, far beyond the ex- ternal boundaries of the territory of Alaska.
 The people in the southeastern sec tions of Alaska may need a bill which provides for an appointive and elective form of government, but in the Sew ard Peninsula district we are satisfied or should be with the form of govern ment we are working under.
 Any other form of government which will burden the country with a legIs- latiye body. partly appointive and partly elective would mean an addi- tional tax on the people to support the same, and in the end without migra- tory form of population it may not prove any better.
 The Alaska bill may be just what w, need and may be blessing fin disguise but many of the taxpayers fin and about Seward Peninsula have their doubts as to it being a stepping stone to easier travelling or a greater burden to the taxable load already placed upon them

When there can be found types of human beings who will contract to take the life of another for fifty dol
 lars, such as the case reported in Se- attle few days ago. We cease to won der that orders known as "Black Hands" etc, exist. Unless we had such examples brought to our attention We never would believe there was such a low type of people on the face of the globe, and there must be something radically wrong with society when humanity of such type walks about the streets of our thickly populated cities.

 The postal saving banks are driving the small savings banks which in the past have flourished, into combines in order to exist. The people want Uncle Sam to guarantee their deposits and the postal savings will be doing the banking business of the working men in the future.

Steamers must be equipped with a wireless apparatus by July first, or they are liable to fine of five thou sand dollars for each and every of- fence. This means that ocean going vessels engaged in the passenger busi- ness must have an nup-to-date wire less outfit capable of sending and re- ceiving messages over certain dis tances. The value of wireless teleg- raphy has been too we'll established as a life saver to need any comment at this time. and the law is such a good one We are prepared to see the same enforced to the letter.

Gompers is making rather bold state- ments for a man in his position. The Federation of Labor he represents should instruct their executive head to use a curb on his utterances when speaking in connection with the great est law making body in the land.
 Samuel Gompers. we will admit has risen to great heights in the ranks of the laboring men, but that does not allow him, or any other American eit- izen, license to abuse any executive head or official of the government. be- cause they merely have a difference of opinions.
