 William Duncan, who has been called the Apostle of Alaska" is more than SS years old.' During his 50 years service among the Indians, he has raised them from savagery to civ ilization, teaching them trades and the elements of business, giving them schools and the advantages of mod ern city.
 The establishment of the govern ment Indian school followed the peti- tions of the natives themselves. on ac- count of the age of Father" Duncan,
 The new teachers are receiving the united cooperation of the natives in carrying out the work so well begun, and are making a good start, says Lopp. G-

Thane Urges People to
 Pay Territorial Tax

Believing that all corporations and business firms should pay territorial taxes, despite the opinion of the At torney-General that their method of collection through federal officials is illegal. B. l.. Thane. manager of the Alaska Gastineau Mining Company. has issued instructions for his com pany to pay voulantarly the same.
 'The Territory of Alaska" said Mir. Thane, needs the money and I be- lieye it the part of every gooG citizen to come to it's aid. and not ta&e ad- vantage of techinal error as charged against the legislature by the Attor- ney-General of the United States. Moreover. since. under the opinion given. commissioners who have col lected poll tax. cannot charge com mission on the same. believe they should donate their services already given, more especially since they re- ceive regular compensation from the government.
 should 1t be necessary for the leg islature to meet again in special ses' sion. it seems to me it would be the part of good business for the members to donate themselves solely to making recommendations of amendments to the Alaska code and organic act. The idea, is not original with me as it was advanced at she previous session. Every Alaskan that have talked with declares that the present code is un' satisfactory and nearly every law a misft for meeting conditions in a practical, business-like manner. there fore there is a unanimous sentiment favoring changes, and it ought to be a comparatively easy matter for Alas kans to reach an agreements for the amendments needed. Then with the assistance of ten or twelve members of the Alaskan bar. who, without doubt would volunteer their services and could be appointed by their organ ization for that purpose. the whole re. yised code could be passed up to Con gress for approval It would be code for Alaska prepared by Alaskans ia miliar with the conditions, and 1t is impossible to conceive that Congress would ignore such a petition.
 "The revised code would give Alas ka a solid foundation upon which to build its industries and carry on the business of the Territory. without fall ing into legal pitfalls and causing a hopeless tangle which may require years of litigation to clear up."

Burleson's suggestion for govern ment ownership of telephone and tele- graph lines and that Congress is not likely to present to the President such a bill for his signature. Special says there is great hostility to the plan in both Senate and House. The princi- pal reason for the probable abandon ment, however, of government owner ship is said to be the agreement now reached between the American Tele- phone and Telegraph company and the Department of Justice.

JUDGE JENNINGS BE LATE
 TO ATTEND OPENING COURT

Judge R. w. Jennings will leave Vancouver, on the Princess May and is expected to arrive in Juneau Jan. 9th, one day late for court. Owing to the fact that the provisions made by the Alaska legislature for permitting District Judges in Alaska to adjourn court from day to day through their clerks, is of no effect, in view of the recent decision of the Attorney Gener- al, the attorneys are discussing wheth- CT another term will have to be adver- tised after his honor reaches here. There is also difference of opinion whether he can legally adjourn after reaching Alaska territory.

Brooks Boosts Juneau
 In Annual Report

the coal resources of Alaska and the s1OO mile tax on railroads in Alas ka are among the causes of the lack of development in Alaska commensu. rate with the resources of the Terri tory and the demand for them by the trade and commerce of the world. He says that is one of the causes of the shrinkage in the gold production of Alaska.
 Railroads First in importance.

MORGAN HE[PS TO JNTANGLE NTERL 0CkNG TRUST
NATIVE STORES ARE
 COMPLETE SUCCESS

-0-O-
 The success of the efforts of the United States bureau of education in introducing cooperative stores among the natives of Alaska is attested to by the following bulletin issued by that bureau under recent date:
 cooperative stores, owned and man aged by natives, are fostered whefev- CT possible in Alaska by the United States Bureau of Education, which has charge of education for the natives of Alaska In this way the Bureau helps the natives protect themselves from those traders who charge exhorbi- tant prices for food and clothing and pay as little as possible for native products. In the small villages even legitimate marketing expenses are a heavy burden unless there is some form of cooperation.
 These cooperative attempts have been a decided success. At Hyda. burg, in Southeastern Alaska, wherf the United States school teacher ha general oversight of the co-operatiN stores, the natives were able, after l months of business. to declare cas- dividend of 50 per cent and still haye  funds available for the erection of a larger store building. The Klawock Commercial Company, also under nae tive management, was able after g months of existence to erect new store building from its surplus. At Klukwan also the natives have organ ized a cooperative store.
 Native stores have for Neveral years been in successful operation at Cape Prince of Wales and on St. Law renee island, where the natives buy food at reasonable prices and are as- sured of an equitable exchange for their furs and other products.
 "A more recent example of cooper ation Is at Atka, a remote island in the Aleutian chain. Formerly rough lumber cost $50 per thousand and shingles $S a thousand on this! island, and clothing and food supplies were correspondingly high. On t1e other hand, the natives were poorly paid for their labor. For each of hte few blue fox skins the natives could catch they received from the trader goods averaging SS in value. Sold at public auction in Seattle, these skins brought from $17.10 to $66.5O each. according to quality. In April of last year, with the help of Seattle merchants and off, cers of the revenue cutter service, a CO., operative company was organized un- der the direction of the United States public school teacher, and now the na- tives are doing their own buying and selling with considerable advantage to themselves.
 Eskimos on the shore of Boring Sea and the Arctic Ocean have until re- gently had to market through local traders. Now many os them are send ing by mail packages of fox, lynx, mink, and hair seal to the Alaska di- vision of the bureau of education at Seattle, and the government officials sell the furs for the natives at public auction to the highest bidders.
 Natives in Tatitlak co-operated in salting and exporting salmon during the past season, under the instruction of the local government teacher, with the result that they have not only net ted $1,OOO in cash, but have also put away 76,OOO pounds of smoked salmon for winter use.'
