Douglas Island news., 1914-03-18

Less than 100 voters have signiHed their intention of taking part in the coming municipal election by register ingin accordance with the provisions of the city ordinances. Of this number only seven or eight are women. This latter fact surprises us not one bit. There never was a time when any great number of Douglas women hankered after the rights of suffrage. Some few will try it this year just for the fun of Che thing, but there will be no sthm- pede. Contentment is the crown jewel of Do0glas woman Perhaps that IS the reason that our town has become such a happy, peaceable, home-loving community.

Oh. Let Us Be Far

Under the above head the Empire in
 timates that we misrepresented it or the seven senators or some one else, says the Ketcbikan Mail We misrep- resented no one. The Empire criticised the action of the Cordova people be- cause they justly showed their indigua
 tion when they found out Chat seven of our senators had misrepreseuted the peop.e of Alaska, aud at very critical time. To say that those senators favor ed the railroad, but did not favor the government ownership of the same is punk, because a government owned railroad wac the only railroad under consideration. The Empire knows that ninety per cent of the people of Alaska condemn those senators in their volun. tarily usiug their influence as Alaska's senators Go misrepreseut Alaska people.

 So sing the little boys and girls por- ing over their geoPraphies in most of the United States And a great many in Canada chant a similar song respect ing Yukon. Ignorance is the basis of the ditty. The youngsters are not to blame. Their fathers and their moth CTS, their sisters, their cousins and their aunts know no better. This Northern empire of Yukon and Alaska has a campaign to conduct To dispel that mass of ignorance respecting this region is no child's play. But constant hammeriug will get results. The fact great railways are planned for this region will be an eyeopener The dis- tribution of the daily weather reports throughout the continent would be a revelation. A few of the outside papers print these reports.-Dawson Daily News.

When a Fellow IS Satisfied

The KetcbiBau Morning Mail of recent date says. The Morning Mail has had little to say editorially regard ing James Wiokersbam's speech on the railroad biu When fellow is satis- fed he usually has but httIe to say, and if that speech wouldn't satisfy any one who has the interest of Alaska at heart he certainly would be hard Go please. Wickersham has few enemies in Alaska, principally because as rep resentative of tbe territory he places her interests above private corporation interests. Added Co this is the fact chat be possesses en intellect superior Go most and equal 10 any of the repre- sentatives in congress, has the energy ro familiarize himself with all matters pertaining Go the territory and has the courage to fight for her interests against all corners. All Alaskans must acknowledge these facts, and in SO do- ing, DO matter what their politics, must admit that we can ill afford to put an- other man In his place. The conditions are too critical

is Suffering from An Economic
Depression Despite an Of
fetal Denial.
~ AaaeeiArEp go,

TOXIC, Jan. "a. Despite official
utterances to reassure the public,
Japan is declared In other quarters
to be suffering from an economic de-
preston. In the northeastern section
a famine has made the situation par
ficularly acute In some cases schools
have had TO close because there was
no money to pay the teachers and be
cause the children, weak from lack Of
food, were unable to attend. The
Hol1kaido government has asked the
central government to advance St0,-
100000 for relief funds.
The chief cause of the general de-
preston, which began about the time
OF the death Of Emperor Mutsuhlto,
is the heavy taxation of the people
which is necessary to pay the interest
on tie national ..e it aye- Il h::!iSn
dollars The wave OF eIation among
the people at the close Of the victor
ious war with Russia and a patriotic
business boom also caused a general
rise in the standard of living and the
price of commodities scared rs a re-
suit Of the more luxurious leel of ex-
penditure Then came reaction. This
was due to the burden Of extraor-
binary taxes to meet the war debt
and constant expenditures in the poild-
ing up of a big army and navy.
