of Congress for the last two or three years, and some of them passed the United States Senate, but were not acted upon in the House.
 We must all rejoice in the good work of the Legislature in passing these laws: now is presented the con- stant problem of securing their en- forcement, and it becomes the duty ot every citizen to assist.
 "A word about the seven bills when were withdrawn for amendment after they reached the executive and before his final action upon them, and about the four bills which were vetoed. These actions were the result of a friendly spirit of cooperation on my mart, which was very fully recipro- cated on the part of the Legislature So the seven bills in the first class were modified and then became laws, while the four vetoes were sustained and the session ended harmonlouSlY as it began.
 "The personnel of the First Legls' lature is of the highest character, and the results show it. It is for every citizen, including those newly created by the equal suffrage act, to see that

BOB BELL WANTS
 TO BE POSTMASTER

Robert Bell, dyed-in-the wool Dem ocrat. is a candidate for the post at Excursion Inlet, and he says that he is entitled to the pIacc. There is no poStoitice at that place vet, out this little difficulty is to be overcome if the new admins tration keeps pace m Alaska with the other good things it has set out to do.
 "whis is no joke" said Mr. Bell, we want post office and we are go tng to have it, if persistent effort will secure .t. There is no good reason why We sOuld be compelled to SubSi' diZc a steamship company to bring our mail when we are located only a few miles off the regular mail route.
 "Thc cannerymcn on Excursion ln' let have invested $300,000 in two can nprics, and $15,OO0 in a sawmill. We gXpcnd every season among the peo- ole living here over $100,00O. There are great many people living in that section especially through the can ming season, yet We are compelled to subsidize a private mail service to ply between Excursion Inlet and Hoo- nah at a cost of $30 per week. We claim that We are entitled to some consideration. Every year We pay in taxes to the government approximate ly $6.OOO and yet We must do without a postofice. Hoonah is only nineteen miles distant and the postoftice de partment should provide for an eXten- sion of the service to our settlement Yes. I'll take the job of being post master and Pm a bona fide Alaskan so there will be no objection to my
