CANADIAN CENSORSHIP
(astroller" in Douglas Newsl

("StrOler in Douglas Newsl
 Wanted-The Stroller is in the market for new device in the way of an envelope that buttons down the back instead of sealing p the old fashioned way. His reasons for wanting such envelope are these: He sti has property interests and friends in the Canadian Yukon about which and to whom 1t is nec- essary that he write frequent letters Lately and as war measure, the Canadian government has decreed that all American mail going into that country and al mail coming from that country to the States, in- cludng Alaska, must be opened, read, pondered and considered by one or persons constituting a board of censors Nearly every mail from the North now brings to the Stroller more letters on the back of which pasted slips bearing in boldfaced type the one word Censored.
 Now as far as the Stroller is concerned, the let ters he transmitted through the mail to Canada are like Mrs. Ceasar deceased, beyond reproach. and the Canadian government Is at liberty to read and even publish their contents but after they have been opened and duly considered the Stroller modestly re- quests that they be resealed without being "all messed up" Only ths week the Stroller received Q letter from the other side Of the line and the back of the envelope in addition to the slip bearing the word Censored" there was faint trace of an egg two coffee stains and something that resembled Log Cabin Maple Syrup. It may have been something else In fact 1t difficult to determine whether the back Of that envelope stationery or groceries
 If letters coming out become smeared in the "cen sorng" process. there is every to believe that letters going in likewise smeared. and the Stroller objects to having his correspondence arrive at its destination stained sticky and egg-smeared especial y with the brand and vintage of eggs mostly used in the Yukon country. and that is why he is looking for envelopes that button down the back They would be more easily opened and recosed, besides they would be less liable advertise what lhe had for breakfast

AN ALASKAN GAIN

As far as the First Division is concerned. at least, the discussion Of the appointment of nOnesIdeuts to office in this Territory. in violation Of the specific promise of the last Democratic National platform. cannot have any personal meaning District Attorney James A. Smser is the only nonresident President Wilson has appointed to office in this Division. and if there is anything that would reconcile Aaskaus to getting their officials from the Outside it would be to have more like him. Slr. smiser has not only made a splendidly capable and high-minded official. but as a citizen of the community he has endeared himself to all who know him. When he came to Alaska the Terrtorys gain and Tennessees loss were considerable He has become so thoroughly an Alaskan that the sourdoughs already forgotten that he did not come North before the beginning of The cen tary. The hope that he might live long aud remain in Alaska always and that might ever have ofh' ciais of equal character and ability is general

WHERE THE DEFENSE.

It is not for advocating Statehood that setgov- ernment people criticize the wickersbames 1t Is for opposing full Territorial form of government The joker in the wiekershamite propaganda is the con- stantly repeated assertion that do not want "to patch up our present makeshift government"
 It is all right and proper for the people of Alaska Co fight for Statehood and fight for it earnestly People must be forward looking f they are to pro- gress. and they must maintain their seltrespect if they expect others to respect them. It should be every Naskan's purpose to leave heritage of his generation the that he fought for his rights as ar American just as the American coIonists of l775 struggled for their rights as Engishmen. failing to get which they seeded in l77s.
 However. history and experience teach us that we are not likely to get Statehood until there has been more development in Alaska. and 1t has been the custom for the United States to grant tar more powers to the people of Territories before Statehood than have been granted to Alaska The people of this Territory have right to enjoy those powers and Go utilize them u the development of their country ahic making the fight for Statehood. It is only hen State hood Is urged for the purpose of preventing the eS tension of these powers that 1t Ottends.
 Any one who opposes the immediate extension of tho powers of full Territorial government to Alaska opposes seltgoyernment for the Territory This stub born fact canno, be surmounted by sophlstry pal aver

FLOATING

Too many people in this life simply float They have no fixed ambition or purpose in life Show me man with definite program of action and that coupled with determination. succeed die in the attempt and will show you man that some time in his three score and ten will mount the ladder of his ambition
 Lies actions are the same as any business. If business organization were to open its doors with no set form of action and take everything that came along-never seeking to better its condition-never checking itself up for improyementsit would dash on the rocks aud be smacked to pieces the first storm So direct analogy may be drawn with the nvdid ual Unless one is closely following a mapped cam paign of action his chances for will be num- bered with the majority which is failure for nine ont of ten men who enter the business world
