MIDNIGHT GAME
 TO OPEN PARK

The past week was a busy one for the members of the Park com mission and a great deal was accom- plished at Exposition park. The baseball diamond, leveled and rolled until it was almost perfectly smooth was in readiness for game yester- day, and it is altogether probable that had it not been for the rain one of the fastest games ever seen in Fairbanks would have been played
 The contract for grading the race track was on Saturday night let to Kinney & Johnson, they being the lowest of six bidders. Their bid was S730 and they undertake to have the track in good shape for the horse races to be held at the July Fourth celebration. Work will com mence this morning and a number of teams will be employed
 The dedication of the park will take place on Friday the occasion of the Midnight ball game. The baseball boys have been putting in lots of practice and all of them are keen for the first game. Some new material, recently arrived from the Outside, is calculated to strengthen the teams materially and it is the belief of well-posted fans that the best ball played in recent years will be served up this summer
 Both teams have agreed to donate their services free for the first game and so all the receipts at the gate will go into the park fund. With fine weather there should be rec ord crowd on the grounds when the umpire calls play ball"

 The people are beginning to real ize this and are preparing to prevent any further seizure of the Alaska revenues by the Gugeenheims and Morgans.
 The people of Alaska. are in the main. alert. opeu-minded and pro. gressiye. They are all open 10 con. yictiou and are ready to give ear to anyone who has something to say.
 Many of the towns have already elected Socialist administrations and an active campaign is now being carried on for the capture of others. to be followed up by an active cam, paign for election of q Socialist dele gate to congress in August.
 Al ketchikan, where l made my first stop, We had two meetings that were the largest ever held in that town by any one for any purpose. The Socialists have a working pro gram and a definite set of demands for the conservation of Alaska and its resources for the people, which are rapidly gaining in popular favor
 Among these demands are the fol- lowing;
 First - A complete territorial form of government; Alaska not to be treated like conquered province.
 Second - A railroad built and op- erated by the government to take the resources of the interior and re duce the cost of transportation.
 Third - The development and op- eration of all coal mines in Alaska by the government.
 Fourth - The construction of wagon roads by the government.
 Fifth - A law abolishing the stalk ing of association and other claims by power of attorney.
 Sixth The changing of election time from August to November in order 10 eliminate the floating vote now being used against Alaskas best interests.
 There is no poverty and suffering in Alaska such as is known in the States, as there is so much chance to pick up living from the many natural resources. But the country is fast being gobbled up and the people being divided into employers and laborers, into capitalists and work CTS.
 More and more the country here will be 0Verrun with men from the States seeking jobs, and already sev- eral towns have become so Eastern ized and commercialized that many workers in them are cowed down and dare not say their souls are their own.

WITH SALMON,

Navigation is officially opened. II is an old saying among the old-timors that the first salmon of the season augurs in the open season in full force. IL is unfailing, because tGe breakup of the icepack in Boring sea is the removal of the obstacle to lower river communication by he water route At the same time the salmon start up the Yukon water ways to spawn Last year the first salmon 10 put in appearance in the fish boxes in this vicinity tumbled down on June 24 by records which no one disputes, and which accordingly must be accepted. It is very seldom that salmon show up this far up the Panama before the first week in July. Hence the appearance of a salmon Saturday morning must go down as the earliest known

POOR OLD CALIFORNIA
LIES SHUNTEE ON THE
 BYWAYS OF RIDICULE

California Is large elbow-shaped state, which abuts on the Pacific ocean for 1000 miles, and is the western terminus of the sleeping ear business in this country. It extends from Mexico to Oregon literally. from late winters to early summer climarically, and from affluence to railroad lunch counters. viewed strict ly from the tourists standpoint.
 California is shut off from the rest of the nation by mountains, des- erts, the Grand Canyon, and a rail road fare varying from s60 to $10O. In spite of this fact Californians speak perfectly good United States, produce splendid ballplayers and in surge with all the skill and enthusi- asm of Kansas.
 California was discovered almost 400 years ago, but was not advertis- ed much until 1S49, when it's soil was found to be strongly impregnat- ed with gold. This caused a mad rush of settlers, and the state be- came immediately popular. Some years afterward the Californans ex- perimented with oranges and found that the air was also strongly i'm pregnated with gold. This caused a second rush. Later on the clim- ate was analysed by skillful press agents and was found to be warm in winter. This caused a rush of tourists who were more strongly i'm pregnated with gold than either the soil or the air. In consequence California now has almost 2,500, 900 people, and there are hardly enough pedestrians among them to keep the automobile owners amused.
 California was a wild state in the sos, and many of it's citizens died from inhaling revolver bullets. But it has tanned down a great deal and is now favorite place of residence for aged and prosperous Americans who have become tired of shoveling the climate of Massachusetts or Hi nois off of their sidewalks. Cali fornia has thousands of citizens who never saw snowstorm until the election of Governor Johnson, and it is possible to sit on sun porchh of a southern California residence in the middle of January and write sou venir cards to the dear ones at home in the drifts, without thawing out ones fountain pen for days at a time California's climate has pro- duced many poets and artists and a large number of liars, who forgot to talk about the Arctic evenings when they chant its perfections.
