NOME, ALASKA, MARCH 10, 1918.

Differences of opinion are at all times unpleasant but they become particularly so when one is compell ed tp meet constantly those who do himself.
 Cooped up for six or seven months in an isolated northern town an abyss IS often created between two differ ent punches who should bo quite friendly and who could be quite friendly if they resolved not to let small irrltations act upon them like a bedful of feas.
 Under such petty troubles strong men often become dissolved into pull ing kids and almost driveling idiots by lot of tommyrot. Men who are accustomed to smile superiorly at the gossip of women spend hours and hours arguing and fuming and ac- complaining nothing In the world but the making of bad friends.
 Two men of different ideas living in cabin together should possess lots of the angelic to keep from wishing each other in the internal regions and the same Is true in a lesser degree of men who are confined constantly in the narrow limits of an Alaskan town.
 We should always try to remember irritating circumstances are bound to occur from time to time and it might

deliberately fixed the date for the leg islature to convene at a time when it is the most difficult to travel, and when the difficulties to be surmounted in making the journey are at their maximum. During the summer time members of the legislature could have reached Juneau from all parts of AL aska with no greater difficulty than is encountered in travelling the same distance in any part of the United States.
 The meeting of this legislature will be memorable event in this history of Alaska. That country was acQuir- ed from Russia forty four years ago. For the entire time which has elaps- ed since that date il has been the step sister of other American communities. For many years it did not have even a preteXt of any form of government. the only federal officers being the resident collector of customs and his deputies, Down to the present time it has been denied the remotest ap- proach to any form of government in which the people participated, not withstanding that there are more peo pie resident of Alaska than there were in some of the states at the time of their admission into the union. Alaska now takes one step forward. Seattle Post t-Intelligencer

ALASKA'S LEGISLATURE.

A cable dispatch from Nome dated January :, records the departure from that place in the depth of winter of the newly elected territorial senator and two representatives on their way to Juneau, there to attend the first session of the first territorial legisla- ture of Alaska. These legislators have before them 2,000-mile journey by dog team before they can reach the open water at Valdez, whence they will take steamship to Juneau, thus completing the last leg of their long journey. The legislature iself convenes on the first Monday in March.
 It will be recalled that among the many objections urged to grant ing 10 the people of Alaska the same measure of self-goevrnment that is accorded every other community over which the American flag floats was the one that the distances were 50 great and the facilities of travel 80 poor that it would be hard to get Q territorial legislature together. Not withstanding that objection. congress

It looks very much like woman's suffrage for Alaska and 1t is interest ing to speculate on the effects which women's votes will exercise on the political and industrial life of the ter ritory.
 II is certain that no harm can be done by letting the northern women vote. They have travelled and lived under conditions which tend to re- move any of the feminine pecullarl- ties which men by orai and written word are so fond of attributbng 10 them.
 one of these supposed feminine pc culiarities Is the desire to vote from, let us say. the family point of view and to the detriment of interests which are financially important but not quite what one might call "sanctiied."
 Men are very fond of saying that women as a rule are gifted with a lesser amount of business sense. The stcrner sex seems to forget that this may be dding insult to injury; that men prevented women from acquiring the commercial sense and now taunt them with a lack of knowledge fo: which none but the men themselves are responsible.
 of course there are lots of men o4 the other hand who have a thorough respect for the capacity of women but who fear that political life Is not their province.
 one remarkable fact connected with this proposed suffrage law Is that the women of Alaska have never asked for 1t. At least they have been silent as body and. no doubt, most of them would be quite willing to let that six tay days be devoted by the legisla- ture to the enactment of laws whic might meet more immediate needs.

Senator Elwood Bruner has taken i time by the forelock by introducing memorial for the removal of q very serious handicap to the deve.opnent of Alaska. Nome particularly shOu d feel that the removal of taxation from railroads is d matter of prime import ance. The enaotmen into law of just such q bill would enable the present legislators to feel that their work hA9 not been in vain.
 That the memorial should pass there cannot be the slightest question. Alaska needs railroads more than any other means of development, and if there existed any danger of the fall use of 1t the people of Nome should lose no time in showing thA% they are to man at Senator Bruner'R back.
