OUR NEW JUDGE.

Charles E. Bunnell will be the new judge for the Fourth division. and The Citizen, which devoted it's en- ergies in MT. Bunneli's behalf previ- ous 10 the last election, feels that the community should feel compli- mented Mir Bunnell's clean cam ed for him the respect of the people of Alaska, and 1t is to be expected that his services as judge will be just as far above criticism as was his political campaign.
 There was a host Of candidates for the judgeship. and many of them were creditable, competent men. Thus there were other men who ap piled for the job that could have filled the judgeship creditably. but no one will probably attempt to say that Mir Bunnell was not AS good as any other aspirant for the position.
 Knowing Mir Bunnell's previously good record and his high sense of duty, The Citizen Is ready to guar antee that he will be an unbiased conscientious judge; that he will keep the back door of his office closed to attorneys who attempt to reach him by its means improperly 10 influence him; that he will re- political faction in Fairbanks; that he will enter heartily into the so- Cial and progressive life of the con- munity. and that he will become party to no political jobbery whatsoever
 If MT. Bunnell fails to come up 10 the foregoing standard, The Citi zen will be quick to condemn him But there is no danger that MT Bun nell will be found wanting. for he has made it evident previously that he is a man of rare good judgment and of high ethical sentiments.
 It would be political suicide for MT. Bunnell to forget his ideals at this time. His career is now in the making, as it were, and if he SO far forgets himself as to become afti- Hated with men of questionable regulations or becomes party to plans for promoting the ambitions of undeserving politicians, he will lose caste. Upon MT. Bunnell's own strength of character and upon his of duty without creating enemies will depend his future success.

IN MIGRATION TESTS.

Just now congress is concerned in the preparation of new immi- grafton bill, the feature of which is the requirement. of certain educa- tional qualifications on the part o, the people who want to come to this country to live.
 If telegraphic reports are correct. it seems that President Wilson is opposed to the literacy test, but it can be presumed that the President at heart is not opposed to such a provision. Just at this critical period. however, when the United States is striving to keep at peace with the world, the proposed educa- tional test for immigrants may have a troublesome effect. and it is to be supposed that for that reason es- pecially President Wilson does not desire the passage of the bill.
 While the full text of the section of the proposed law requiring an educational test for immigrants landing in the United States is not known here, 1t is quite certain that 1t would shut out from this country the residents of certain countries but would interfere very little with the people of other countries. and therefore an international jealousy would be threatened
 For instance, if the test requires the immigrant to be able to speak English but few Japanese could be landed here. This would be certain to bring about serious protest from that country, which has always been active in it's effort to place the citizens of Japan on an equal footing with those of other nations.
 But aside from the danger of h. ternational troubles, the education al test for immigrants would be a good thing. There is much com- plaint in the United States over the way anarchists from other lands are focking here and are constantly creating trouble. These anarchists in the main part are very ignorant, and are not desirable class of citizens
 The time has passed when the people of the United States really desire much immigration, for it will be but few years before the foreigners arriving here will be crowding American citizens out of jobs and other means of making livings. We must look to the future and protect our own people first.

AIDING THE sELclANs.

Every city in the United States is sending donations to the Belgians, who were made homeless by the war. These donations are gathered from individuals, and this humane sentiment is directly in contrast to that which promises war Thus it seems that the tendency of the indi- vidual is to promote human welfare, and the tendency of a glory loving ruler is to sacrifice 1t for selfish interests.
 The immediate effect of war in any nation Is to bring its people in closer relationship and to inspire them with sense of patriotism. Thus we people of the United States look at this useless. destructive war in far different light than does the average citizen of either of the nations involved. We are swayed by our sympathies. and they are governed by their sense of duty and patriotism. If conditions were re- versed, it is quite certain that the people of either of the warning na- tions would send to the people of the United States money and provi- sions, in case we needed them. It is quite fitting that one of the cities to be most active in the mat ter of sending aid to the Belgiars is San Francisco. which was de stroyed by the earthquake and fire on April IS, 1906. On Dec. 5. the steamer Camino sailed from San Francisco with a cargo of supplies for the Belgians. bought by the don ations of the people of the Pacific coast. For that mission of mercy the people of San Francisco contri. buted a total of $1ss,O00. of which ! s148,O0O was in cash
 San Franciscans have suffered just as the people of the destroyed Belgian cities have suffered. only not from the same cause Thus they are prompt to give aid, and it is 1 fitting that the people of the city of the Golden Gate should be the freest givers to the sufferers in Bel gium.
 When San Francisco was destroy.

FIRE ALARM SYSTEM NEEDED

When the council grants the new franchise to the telephone company it should reserve the right to use the comDany's poles for a fire alarm system, which is needed here. It is quite certain that the company, like the telephone and telegraph companies in the large cities, will be willing to allow the city to string its fire alarm wires on it's poles without cost to the city.
 II is doubtful that any other city Of its size in the country has a better equipped nre department than has Fairbanks, and the very small loss of property by fire here proves the departments efficiency But the department cannot fight a fire until it knows that one exists and the fire alarm system notifies the department more promptly than does any telephone system in the world
 The loss of two or three minutes sometimes determines the fate of burning building. Thus, If a tele- phone line is busy the loss of time may cause the loss of a valuable house, or the loss of somebody's life, simply because the department cannot be notified in time.
 The question of installing a fire alarm system in Fairbanks has been presented to the members of the council by Chief Buckley, who has undertaken to explain it's neces- sity. It is understood that it will cost the city approximately $1,200 to install the system
 Every time an improvement is made in the fire alarm system a reduction in insurance rates is al- most certain to follow. Thus the installation of fire alarm system here would almost surely cause reduction in the rates of insurance.
 If the system is installed it will have paid for itself when it has been the means of saving an ordinary cabin. The reduction in insurance rates that the system can be ex- pected to accomplish would soon make good its cost
 It is a matter that the members of the council should consider care fully, especially before the tele- phone franchise is granted
