NATIVES AT NENANA
 MAKE THEIR OWN LAWS

Fighting, intoxication and other kindred crimes among the natives of the interior must stop, according to the list of rules and regulations passed recently for the government of the native town of Nenana, by the natives themselves. The rules were passed recently at a meeting of the chiefs and head men of the village. The natives maintain their own spec al police force, with necessary courts and jails, and while the court may not be up to the regular standard of white mans court, it is plenty good enough for the natives and its man dates are religiousIy lived up to by them.
 A copy of the rules passed by the natives was received at the Govern or's office today and is as follows:

HAVE A LITTLE SENSE

While we cannot believe that thee are enough foolish people in Alaska who will vote Alaska back into the lawless condition it was in in the days of '9S, and at the same time vote their municipalities into poverty and their schools into inefficient condi- tions, we nevertheless cannot stop the work of warning the people what to expect if they allow the chimera of Prohibition to influence enough votes to abolish licensed liquor houses. Yesterdays papers and today's papers certainly had enough evidence of the fact that Prohibition does not prohi- bit, taking the case of Seattle.
 There is so much whiskey in Se- attlc today that it is as cheap and as easy to get as it was when the saloons were all opcn-only the revenue from the sale of liquor is prohibited-the sale continues, and is in the hands of the lawless class. There is so much whiskey in Seattle that a rival boot logging gang was able Co steal it by the auto-ruck load, 200 cases at time-it could never be stolen in such quantities while licensed conditions maintained there.
 When any man or woman tells you that it is impossible to get liquor any where on earth where Prohibition is "in force" they tell you something that your reason and experience tells you is not true. If they couldn't find it there, they didn't seek it. Whcr- ever there is a demand the supply will be present-it may be in hiding, and of inferior order, but it will be where the demand is. Twelve men sell li- 0uor in Fairbanks today Under Pro hibition fifty or many times fifty men would be selling liquor in Fairbanks and all hell couldn't prevent it-they would however, be contributing noth- ing to the upkeep of the city or its schools or fire department. They would be teaching the youth of our city just what Prohibition teaches the youth of every prohibition camp; teaching them to be sneaks and that there is no crime in lawlessness un- less you are found out Whiskey could be shipped in here, and it would be shipped in and delivered at the front door of anti-prohibitionists and at the backdoor of the Prohibitonist but there would be no revenue from the sale thereof and only harm could come from Prohibition.
 There will be more "prohibition news from Seattle, as the days go by, for there is lawlcssness everywhere where prohibition is working As civilization exists today crime and disaster are the sought after news
