To many of tbe towns of Alaska they have what they call the pareut-teacher associations. In many cases the moving spirits in these organizations are not parents, but some have been teachers in their early days. They have one of these associations in Fairbanks, but the Citizen must be a bit suspicious when it save: "Wbether the parent teacher association will be a success will de- pend largely upon the way the mem bers look at it's purposes. If it is to be used for cheap politics, or for any other kind of selfish interests, it will fail, but if it keeps looking only for the welfare of the children, it will accom- plish a worthy mission"

Not in Hurry

According to the Juneau papers, the burden tackled on Alaskans by the last legislature is not being carried along with enjoyment, if We can judge by the manner of paying the tax imposed. Territorial Treasurer W. c. Smith has complained of the lack of enthusiasm manifested by those affected in not flooding the treasury. He is reported to have said that while many have paid. they have done SO under protest. Among whom are the fish trap owners.
 The legality of taxing the fishing in dustry may we'll be questioned, as con. gress has expressly declined to grant the Alaska legislature any power over that industry. lt would seem that if the Alaska legislature had the power to tax the industry it would have the power to dictate trap locations, num- Der that could be maintained, and even their abolishmeut. The lack of power to do this, however, was acknowledged by the legislature in it's memorial to congress. In the same breath, as it were, we have asked congress to regu late the fishing industry and have i'm posed a tax ou the same. How delight fully consistent,
 As Co the tax affecting professional men, in one respect at least, it is emi- nenty illegal, in that it is a retroactive tax and not likely to be upheld in court of law. Another point we'll worth con- sidering is this. What about those who enjoyed the privilege to near the time the law took effect; are they to be hunted and made to pay since the lst Ot January, or are tbey exempt by their absence? Likewise, will the newcomer be made Go pay the tax from the be- ginning ot the year? As ridiculous as 1t may seem, we see no reason why be should not, because are not we old res idents made to pay now tax that was not a tax the first half of the year ConcIusively, what we need in Alaska is either more latitude in legislation or none at all.-Progressive.

This town appears to be overrun with dogs, of all kinds, varieties and breeds, but most of them are just common dogs. Low down, mangy CUTS that spend their time scratching. Very few wear a collar or any indication of own ership, and many of their performances are in direct violation of the laws of polite society. If a man owns a dog and takes care of it, that's bis affair, but if man owns a half dozen dogs and allows them to degenerate into common nuisances they should be shot and cast into the sea with a heavy rock attached.
