YES, JUNEAU IS
 STILL THE CAPITAL


 Recently in a town in one of the Middle Western States there was quite an argument as to where the capital if Alaska was located, One woman who believed Juneau was the capital, re- forred to this city as the seat of gov ernment Her neighbors declared that sltka was the capital, and produced Rand-McNally geography to prove their assertion.
 or course the woman who played a lone hand in the argument was right while the neighbors and Messrs. Rand McNally & Company were dead wrong.
 sitka, tho old Russian city situated on Baranoff island, was the capital of Alaska until 1906 when the seat or government was transferred to Ju- neau. In July 1906, the Interior De- partmont made an order Transforming the capital, and on September 8. in the same year, shortly after Milford B. Hoggalt was inaugurated as gov ernor the transfer was made.
 The authorization for the transfer of the capital from Sitka really dates back to 1899, when Congress passed a bnl authorizing the removal of the capital to Juneau at any time suitable offices could be secured there. Gov. J. G. Brady preferred Sitka to Ju- neau, and for that reason the trans fer did not come until after his ad- ministration.

 m spite oi the groot Republican gains in the House due to the return Of Che Roosevelt voters to their old aiieeience. the fact rema'ns that the Democratic vote was relatively iafeef than it was two years ago.
 In 1922 the Democrats boiled approx lmatoiy Q per cent of the totai Dem' acratic-RepubhcautProgressiye vote. The Republicans polied 20 per cent. and tho Progressives polied 30 per cent.

 There wore no general Republican gains in the popular vote in lsll at the expense of the Progressive party
 The Republican gains were all at ithe expense of the Republican party and even Che return of the lost sheep left the Republicans far below the Democrats in actual numbers.
 Various masters of political mystery i'm Washington chose to interpret the Proeident's Indianapolis speech as an imnouncement of his candidacy for renomlnaaon in 1916 Such an an- nouncement on Mir Wilson's part would be superfuous. So far as the rank and file Of the Democratic party arc concerned. he Is taeir candidate. and they have no second choice.

Finally after various couples had been exempt ed from paying to have a copy of their marriage certificate written into the record books, Mir Marshall start ed charging the legal fee of S1.00 for each certificate And this fee has been charged to date.
 But now tho Department of justice, through the Comptroller, has held "that where Q Federal statute fixes 8 fee for a service to be rendered by @ United States Commissioner in AL asko. such fee is applicable to the ex- clusion of any different and inconsist. ent fee which the Territorial legisla- ture may have prescribed for the same service"
 The Territorial fee is $1.0O. The Federal fee for the same job is S12O. The difference between $1.20 and S1.00 is twenty cents. Thirty weddings, at a comeback of twenty cents each, would make $500. The $500 goes to the East Ion an early boat

JUNEAU AND PRINCE
 RUPERT COMPARED


 There is a difference between the British Columbia and the Alaska way of running cities ID Alaska the law does not permit the creation Of bonded indebtedness for any purpose. The result ls lhet city governments hud 1t difficult to keep public im- proyements up with the growth of the towns. The specter ot 8 municipal debt .s always staring tRcm 'n the face. British Columbia presents the other extreme. There tbe city coun- cn secure high.priced municipal engt neers to plan a completed city and they borrow the money Co keep the public work ahead Of the developments ol private enterprises.
 On che American side in che States the municipalities pursue, seneraliy speaking. a middle course between that ln British Columbia and Alaska but nearer Ike thet here than that on the Canadian side.
