DEMOCRATS GET TOGETHER.

With the exception of Valdez, it seems that the Democrats of the Territory are generally harmonious, and it seems almost certain, too, that the convention that will prob ably be held at an early date, will be without any serious split.
 If this spirit of good feeling can be maintained, the outlook for elect ing Democratic delegate this year will be excellent. Indeed, as The Citizen has said before, a serious split in the party at this time Will mean certain defeat, and the de feat of the Democrats in the cleo tion of a delegate to congress, will seriously injure the chances of the Territory to get desirable legisla- tion at Washington.
 If Alaska sends other than a Dem- ocrat to Washington. the admins tration will feel that the Territory is not in sympathy with it's policies as far as the Territory is concerned, at least, and it cannot be expected that Alaska in that case will con- tinue to get favors from the govern ment

vary somewhat, but it is just as good as money itself, and in many ways better.
 The production of wheat is chang ing somewhat in the last few years. for other crops have been introduced in some of the wheat growing dis tricts, which seem to be more profit able. and thus wheat is not grown in some states like it was formerly This is one reason that has been ad- vanced for the increased cost of living.
 If the Panama valley can be made to produce wheat like some think possible. it is certain that it's sue cess as a great farming country will be realized

WHO'S WHO d6 IN FAIR B A N K . 1"

Next to his patriotism for the United States comes MT. Nerland's love for Alaska, where he has lived since the early Dawson gold rush. He believes that Alaska's future will be all that can be desired or ex- pected.
 MT. Nerland was born in the west ern part of Norway, on a farm. His father was member of a local legislature for some time, and took an active interest in public affairs. The family lived on an old estate that had been handed down for many generations. On this family estate MT. Nerland spent his early life. He received his education in the To- cal schools of the country.
 In 1888, when MT. Nerland was l6 years of age, he left the old home and came to America. going directly to Minnesota, where he went 70 school for two more years in Minne- apolis.

AlASkA'S NEW CONDITIONS.

Two vessels sailing from Seattle early in the week, carried approxi- mately 1000 people destined for the Nome region There is reason to believe that many of those people are really coming to Fairbanks by way of St. Michael, though our source of information is not clear on that point.
 From the scattering bits of press during the last few days, it seems that there will be large number of people sail immediately by way of the White Pass for Fairbanks. and all this goes to show what the promise of a government railroad is doing for this new country.
 The vanguard of Alaska's great immigration of the next few years will probably come this season, and what can be expected to come here this year will be but small part of what will probably reach here next year
 It is hard for anyone to comprc- hend what this immigration will do in the way of changing Alaska. As yet it is all in the future, something that is more visionary and dreamy than real as far as it appeals to our minds, and those who will live here while the expected transformation of the country is being accomplish ed will not appreciate the change like one who will leave before it begins and returns to see the country a few years hence.
 This new order of things will have it's advantages and it's disadvantages, and there will be some who will not welcome the new conditions that are in store for us. There are those who love Alaska for its wholesome ness, for it's freedom from the snob- bishness of aristocrats, for its in teresting solitudes and for it's at mosphere of freedom. These people, although they may want to see the Territory develop, will feel certain sense of regret to see the passing of pioneer life, which, after all, has a peculiar charm of it's own.

When asked for his opinion re- garding what he believed was the best governed country in the world, a well-known man who had been editor of New York newspaper. replied that he believed it was Nor way. He is not a Norwegian, but he based this reply upon his knowl- edge of the governments of the world.
 While there are many of us who will deny that there is any better governed country in the world than our own United States, it must be confessed that Norway has proved to be a model nation. Anyhow, that was where one of Fairbanks coun- cilmen, Andrew Nerland, was born.
 MT. Nerland is a Norwegian only by birth and early training, for the most of his life has been spent in the United States, and as an Ameri- can patriot he refuses to take back seat for anyone. mot even native American" he declares.

TEMPEST IN A MILK CAN.

At least one newspaper in the city has stirred up tempest in a milk can by reporting some of the side lights of the last meeting of the city council.
 City Physician Bradley at that time asked that an inspector be ap- pointed whose duty it would be to see that the milk sold to the public was not adulterated and come up to a certain standard. The reason for this request was asked and the lady in justice to herself merely milk from one dairy and found that chemicals had been used. When ask ed to name the dairy she refused to do so, stating that she was not lay ing a charge against anyone, but merely asking that proper officers be appointed to prevent such infrac- tions
 The sensational morning newspa- per reporter jumped onto this dis cussion with both his dear little feet, and the result was a mild sensation and a milk scandal which involved every dealer of lacteal fluid in the city. Immediately each dairyman ill turn called upon Dr. Bradley to as certain whom she charged with adul- terating the milk, and the charge was at last definitely made against the Gould dairy. MT. Gould indignantly denies the thing in toto, and asks that an investigation be made of his premises and his mode of carry ing on the milk business. To bear out his contention some of his pa irons who have raised the healthiest babies in town come to the front and over their own signatures state that his product could not be so awfully bad else the little faces would not show the bloom of health.
 1IeSelN dllNtS III ulIlh dIe dlN dyS detrimental to health, according to the best medical authorities, and should be prohibited. In every city of importance in these days there are milk inspectors whose duty it is to visit all the dairies from which the city gets it's milk supply, and to report to the health officer any violation of health rules. To tell if milk has been skinned is an easy matter, for it is only necessary to put a lactometer into it to determine it's specific gravity. In nearly every city there is a law that prohibits the sale of milk that does not regis ter a certain specific gravity, and frequently milk that does not meet the required test is poured into the gutter.
 When the city physician, to carry her point, was forced to tell why she was asking the council to ap- point another official or delegate added powers to herself, she should have named the owner of the milk which she had tested and thereby not involve all the dairies.

1890, and it was there that he first became acquainted with his present business associates, Ander- son brothers of the local firm of Anderson Brothers and Nerland. And erson Brothers conducted a paint and wall paper store, and Nerland became their collector, at the same time learning the business. In 1896 the firm suspended business and Mir. Nerland accompanied Anderson Broth CTS to Guatemala, where the latter started another store. But the southern climate proved unhealthy, and they left there year later, all returning to Seattle.
 In 1897, few weeks after they arrived back in Seattle, Anderson Brothers took the Alaska gold fever and sailed for St. Michael The next year, Mir. Nerland concluded to go to Dawson, and much to his surprise, the first men he met there were the Anderson Brothers, who had just arrived there also.
 The three friends looked the city over, and concluded that it would be a good place in which to open up a paint and paper-hanging establish ment. Accordingly about three weeks after Mr. Nerland arrived there he started back to Seattle to buy stock for the new firm of Anderson Broth CTS and Nerland, and he returned with the stock on September 6.
 A feature of his trip out from Dawson was the fact that he rode on the first steamer that made the trip from Dawson to Whitehorse, and the fare for that short distance was $250. He arrived in Seattle just 13 days after leaving Dawson, the trip being eight days shorter than any that had previously been made. :,
 The new firm had spent about $5 900 in the construction of store, into which they moved as soon as the new stock arrived. A week later the fire that destroyed much of Dawson took the building, though the stock was saved.
 At cost of about $3,0OO new store was established on the water front, and that, too, was burned to- gether with all the stock, the fol lowing March. The loss in the lat ter fire was between $16,OOO and s17,OO0, but the firm was not discour- aged with all the bad luck that had come to it, and it went to work to re-establish itself.
 About that time, cousin of MT. Nerland's was going Outside from Dawson for some goods, and he pur- chased for the new firm another

COAL TEST WAS MISLEADING.

Commenting on the test made by the cruiser Maryland of the Boring River coal, The Railway and Marine News says that there are two prongs to the situation. as follows:
 Prong No If the coal be not good, as reported by the casual test conducted by the battleship Mary land, then what becomes of the Pin chot convention that this coal field undeveloped fuel supply known to the world?
 Prong Mo- 2-If the coal be not valuable what excuse is there for the irresponsible statements that have caused ten years of stagnation and suffocation in that part of Alaskan"
 It seems quite certain that Pin chot's statement was one extreme, and that the test made by the Maryland has given rise to a senti- ment that is extremely opposite. The fact seems to be that the coal test ed was only that of the outside croppings, and to the extent that it did not deal with the interior body of the deposit, it was not fair. This latter view is presented by Seat tie newspaper, as follows:
 "If the coal be not good, then the government should not hesitate a moment in ordering a refund of money paid by locators, many of whom have tied up entire fortunes in their claims.
 "The fields certainly produce an excellent quality of various grades of coal; but inasmuch as no mine has ever been opened there the ac' tual efficiency of the fuel cannot be determined
 "The best that can be done, under present conditions and limitations, is to analyze coal taken from an out cropping or from a point but short distance in a vein; and to date all surface analyses have indicated ex, cellent coal lying underneath.
 This fact gives rise to the con- clusion that the tests conducted by

m TOLD YOU SO."

Just a year ago The Citizen plac- ed itself on record in regard to at least two of the present members of the school board but it has not talk en all that time to show that we were right in our contentious. Things have been happening right along ever since that time, but the last straw which is opening the eyes of the public took place when that august body, supplemented by one newly-elected member, put over one of the rawest deals ever handed out in Fairbanks.
 There is not the least doubt in the minds of anyone that the board has the right, having been elected by the people for that purpose, to hire and discharge all teachers from the highest to the lowest but the manner in which it was done is what has angered the people.
 Professor Knowlton was hired two years ago to become principal of the Fairbanks school, and at that time was pronounced by at least one of the present board to be all that was desired in the way of an edu- cator He has done his work faith fully ever since he took charge, and if his services were no longer re- quired he certainly had the right to expect some intimation from the school board in time for him to make application for a position elsewhere.
 This courtesy was not accorded him however, for while they were dealing with another man in dis tant city, making overtures to him which should not have been made at all. MT. Knowlton was allowed to remain in ignorance that he was not going to retain his position, and it remained for him to get the first word of his conge from unauthorized sources.
 Not alone has MT Knowlton suf- fered through the duplicity of the board. but one of the lady teachers was not considered because she had

institutions of the country would ministration became Democratic. and thus produce a financial stringency that would discredit the Democrats But in this instance hard times were scheduled for the whole world owing to the conditions that followed the Balkan war, and the financial inter ests were aided materially in their usual hard-times trickery by natu.- al conditions.
 Soon after the Balkan war ended the banks of that country called on the United States financiers for gold, and in a little while $65,000,00O in gold coin was shipped to them from New York. This alone did not bring on the hard times here, but it had serious influence in that direction.
 Only a week ago, Colonel Roose- welt was quoted as saying that the Wilson administration is a failure, for he said it was due to the changes in the tariff and other reforms that hard times were brought on.
 This calls to mind the financial panic that took place in Roosevelt's administration. when all coin was withdrawn from circulation and clearing house certificates were the only forms of money obtainable. That was not brought about by changes in the tariff, but it did fol low the disagreement between Harri- man. the late railroad magnate, and Roosevelt, at the time that the lat ter endeavored to regulate the trusts and to control the railroad corpora tions. It will be remembered that at that time Roosevelt openly charged the moneyed interests with conspiring to discredit his admins tration by bringing on a panic.
 The Standard Oil letters that were later published in the Hearst maga- zine showed that Roosevelt found himself In deep water when he at tempted to interfere too much with the trusts and that he was soon eat ing out of their hands.
 ROOsevelt's s charge that Hartman and Wall street interests really did have much to do with bringing on the panic of 1907, was probably well founded, and it is just as true that the same old combination is at it's old financial tricks to prevent the present Democratic administration from interfering with the money pow CTS

 The system of making an applica- ton for a job which you already have is something new to all the teachers from the Outside. and is praCticed no other place except here in Fairbanks. How would it strike the average man who is working for wages to have to make an applica- ton 10 20 to work the next morning after payday, and if such applica- ton was not made it would be tax en for granted that he did not want his situation?
 It is really to be deplored that the recall is not attached to the mem- bers of the present school board, for if the same tactics are carried lon much longer the value of our schools as a place of learning will have been but a memory The i'm parting of book knowledge to the young is not the only thing to be looked after, for integrity, honesty and straightforwardnes are just as essential To attain this end good examples must be set. and who should set the good example more than those coming in contact with the pupils themselves.

WHAT CAUSED HARD TIMES.

There is reason to believe that there is now being waged throughout the country a death struggle between the big financial interests and the true representatives of the people. If the great corporations can suc- ceed in discrediting the Wilson ad- ministration to the extent of getting it replaced by one that is thoroughly Republican, there will be a chance for money to rule.
 On the other hand, if Wall street and the trusts lose in their effort to prevent further legislation that is detrimental to them and Wilson is reelected, the undoing of the big monopolies will almost be accom- plished.
 The assertion that is now being made by the Republican leaders to the effect that the present hard times is due to the tariff changes is proved to be wrong in more ways than one In the first place, hard times are general all over the entire world. In the second place, the reduction in the tariff was too slight to ruin any industry, and IL is worthy of note that the indus tries that claim to be injured are still thriving. The press reports say nothing about any big factories shut ting down. and it is noticeable that in spite of the dull times, there are few business failures.
 In some lines. it is true, there has been an over production. and real estate has been boosted in some places to such an extent that a re- action was unavoidable. Such things have nothing to do with the tariff
 It was to be expected. judging from past history. that the financial
