SHOULD AULD ACQUAINTANCE
 BE FORGOT?

The mail route from Gulkana to Slate crtck, abolished a year ago, because, as says the super intcndent, ''the business uf the past six months does not warrant it," is another evidence of the care and attention our delegate is giving his constituents, special ly tho.c who gave him a prac- tIcally unanimous support two years ago. The facts are the route iS summer schedule of four months, costing the gOvcrn- ment $iO0 and serving about seventy five people, whose fami- lies live on the coast, where the miners also do their business.
 The past six months when the business of the route does not warrant it, were winter months, when there is no winter service. X simple presentation of the facts by Delegate Wickersham would have rcctilird the blundcr of the department, and the pa irons of the Dempsey posluf1icr would have had a regular service during the open season.
 As il is WickrrShanI Tul the Slate creek votes, and now inc Slate creek miners have the priv ilrec of paying some privat" party lO carry their mail into them. as a rrcnmprnSr for their past loy- ally tn the delegate tn congress. the Hon. James WickcrSham.

IMMEDIATE RELIEF PRoMls-
 " ED. .;''.'

Thanks iO Inc indrfaIigablr rf- forts nf inc marshal's office. ;he Washington authorities w,rc made aware of the serious cOndi- lion of those who were living within the zone of katmai'S out burst, with Ih" result that all revenue vessels doing service in northern waters have been order ed tO render aid within the vol canO zone, and to render such assistance to the unfortunate as may lie within their p0w.r.
 We can depend upon it that lba service will enter upon their spc- cal mission with an enthusiasm which will need no spurring. Perhaps there is no other Dor- ton of Uncle Sam's domain where the work of the revenue service is more fully appreciated than in Alaska. This is not the first time they have been called upon to render service where life and property was endangered, and upon no occasion have they dis appointed the friends who expect SO much of them.
 Whether it be taking an over lard journey of 1900 miles to P"inI aBrrow, in the cold, icy blasts of winter, lo relieve ma 'uUncd whalrrs; succOring the SllIpwrrrkcd or driving their fra!l craft within tho danger lino - of pu active volcano, ihcy have always performed their duty as lIl"y saw iI, without OsicniaIion HEd wiIl q sincere desire to bc helpful In Ihnsc so. placed as to br unabl" [" holp themselves This Is q heritage handed down in ihc service since inc first cut ter plowcd Inc waters of Alaska.

RooSEvELT'S DECLARATION.

"On the fourth of March next, shall have served three and one- half years, and this three and one-haIf years constitute my first term. The wise custom which limits the presidents to two terms regard the substance and not the form, and under no circumstance will ] be a candidate or accept an ether nomination for president" Three years later, on December II, 1907, he reiterated his dec- Iaration in these words:
 " have not changed and shall not change the decision thus an- ncunced."

CHASED BY a CLOUD.

The conduct of Captain Me Mullen. of the steamer Dora. in flying away from Kodiak, was. IO say the least, a very rowar,lly act , and. We ar" happy ln record. one seldom indulgrd in by American s"am"n. He began by running" from a black cloud, which finally "nvrloprd his ship. but l.ft it. unScathrd; hr took his course for Kodiak. in the inky darkness of a volcanic night, only to hra" phan- tom ships, ghnSlly whistles and unearIhly signal bells, telling him of fleeing ships and the total an miEilatiOE of the inhabitants of the unfortunate island settle ment.
 Because, p"rrhancr, the wire less station did not catch a mes- sage from his ship, he took il for granted that the black cloud from which he was fleeing, had Swal- lowed all life from the island, i"i hiN ilfIlII ttlih t'bbh d straight course for lhr nearest open saloon, which in iliis case happened tO be in Seward.
 Purely as a matter of curiOS- fly we would ask this doughty captain how it. comes that "iwo ships" could make their way out "f Kodiak harbor, when the ash rS welg' falling so thick and the darkness was SO dense that he could not find his way in, where possibly his vessel might be the means of saving a half thousand human lives, for aught he knew. From the facts at hand, wr arg constrained to believe the "black cloud" acted much upon the cap tain'S imagination as the vision of snakes does upon him who has indulged too freely in the cup.
 Captain McCullrn lacks the right kind of fibre in his mental and physical makeup tO com mand a passenger steamer, for none should be. entrusted with inc lives of his fcllowman un- less at least of the physical cour- age to face danger like n man. This attribute Captain McMullrn does not possess.

Why the appointment of q rail way commission lo select route for an Alaska trunk line railway should be made n part of the en- abling act creating Alaska q icr- rilory and giving her n form of government, can bc understood only as an attempt on inc part of the Senate lo deliver the goods promised by Taft through Sccrc- Iary Fisher.

Senator Jones, of Washington.

Senator Jones, of Washington, Introduced a bill in the upper house of congress for the relief of the volcano victims to the westward. Delegate Wickrrsham, in the House, followed suit. They both are entitled to whatever credit is due; neither should re- tciv" final payment until they bring home the game.
 lt would he the eternal fitness of justice if the captain of the cutter Manning were to order Captain McMullen to proceed with the Dora, directly to the Katmai village to relieve the unforiun- ale native inhabitants. We fear the pilot house of the little yes s"l would prove unbearable to one of sensitive olfactOry organs, as the black cloud was seen ascend ing from the mountain peak.

BIG CROWD AT
:. LEAGUE BALL
THE LABOR TEMPLE JAMMED
WITH THRONG OF NEW
YEAR DANCERS - SUPPER
:ssasAMITTEE PROVES ABIL-
IAEsAs; CULINARY EXPERTS


crowd that packed and jammed the
Labor Temple marked the first social
festivities for 1912 of the Women's
Label League. When the music started
at o'clock the dancers swarmed onto
the floor and it was something fierce.
How that crowd ever contrived to dance
is mystery but everybody seemed
happy despite the jam. A floor commit
tee of three ladies saw that everybody
danced that cared to and if there were
any wall flowers it was their own fault.
True to form every other dance was
a ladies' choice affair in which the fair
sex exercised their leap year preroga-
tive
But-while everything went merry as
Il wedding bell downstairs all wasn't
joy supreme in the culinary regions
overhead where committee of mere
men were preparing the eats" No re-
Elections, y understand, on the menu
prepared by the chefs. The bill of fare
was all to the good and the diners never
sat down to a better prepared supper.
But, y understand, the committee
worked the best part of the day and
until II o'clock getting everything to-
gether and they agreed it was some job.
After you have looked a gas range in
the face two or three consecutive hours
you begin to appreciate the daily
kitchen routine of the wife of your
bosom.
There was consolation for the chefs,
however, in the way the eatables disap-
peared into the interior department of
the hungry dancers. The oyster stew
was bully, to paraphrase our illustrious
friend, T. r., and the way empty bowls
came back to the kitchen to be replen
ished led the chefs to imagine some of
the low brows were drinking their soup
That refreshment committee deserves a
great big vote of thanks and if the ladies
could have seen that committee on the
cold gray dawn of the morning after
when they had to remove the wreck,
they'd make that vote of thanks unani-
nous.
Socially, the entire evening was a
huge success. OF course there were one
or two half baked idiots as there are at
all such affairs who imagine that ball
room etiquette calls for an exhibition of
skill in the refined art of turkey trot-
ting These pests We're quickly sup
pressed Take it by and large it was a
well behaved, jolly crowd that attended
the first leap year dance of the season.

SPOKANE TO
ACT AS HOST
THE UNIONISTS OF SISTER
CITY ARE COMPLETING AR
RANGEMENTS TO TAKE
CARE OF BIG LABOR GATH
ERING THE 18th INST.

According to the Spokane Labor
World the unionists, of that city are
making great preparations to take care
of the delegates to the State Federation
of Labor convention which convenes il
that city the 18th inst. Committees
will meet the trains and escort delegates
to the hotels Tor the iaiD. The sessions
will open in the Pythian hall with Wee
President VIM. J. Coates presiding The
forenoon will be taken up with addresses
of welcome and responses and eXamina
tion of credentials. In the afternoon
the annual report of President Case and
reports of other officers will be given
The balance of the week will be given
over to plans for aggressive work dur
ing the coming year.
legislative campaign will soon be
under way and the Federation proposes
to hold and strengthen legislation in the
interest of the workers already secured
and pledge candidates for further pro.
gressive measures.
Organization of the women of the
wage earners into active label leagues
will be an important subject for discus
sion. Two or three cities in the state
have shown wonderful union develop
ment during the past year through the
medium of the women's organizations
and it is hoped to make this phase OF
union activity leading feature next
year.
A banquet and ball is promised dur.
ing the week and A. w. Swenson of the
typos is announced as toastmaster
Knowing Bills ability to put a man
before slow fire and turn him over
till he is roasted on both sides, it goes
without saying that somebody is going
to get theirs. Those who have under
gone the torture inflicted in years gone
by by one T. V. Copeland will grin in
pleasurable anticipation of seeing T. v
ON the rack.
The Spokane boys feel rather fncensed
at the action of some of their church
authorities in refusing to permit their
buildings to be used during the conven-
tion for addresses by trade union speak
ers. Their action does not seem to
square very well with the oft-repeated
wish of the clergy to cooperate with
organized labor. Afraid somebody will
drop dynamite bomb in the aisle, prob
ably. Petty business, but it won't les
sen the enthusiasm of the delegates nor
lessen their determination to achieve
something more than the handing out of
hollow assertions of friendliness.
Our Spokane brethren are noted for
their open handed hospitality and the
delegates will spend week that they
will look back to as an oasis in the
desert of daily toll.
