WHAT 4 DIFFERENCE!

It does one good to meet broau, sensible sort Of person occasionally. Specially when on g giv- en subject one differs widely. 4 broad, sensible person will give his or her views in an impassion- ed sort of way. Considers the weakness of hu- man nature allows for its deficiencies. and tries 10 correct that which he or she considers hu- man i'll without reSorting to personalities or in any wise taking ofenSe at another's contrarineSs. One meets such person occasionally and il does one lot of good.
 What difference between that class Of people and another class that one meets ever so often. The class who believe that nobody else but them selves are right. Nobody else but themselves have sense: have right to their opinion. That class Of people who believe that you have no right to say anything; do anything. or even think about anything unless you think like they do When. as 3 matter Of fact that class Of peo- pie never think for themselves but appropriate others ideas as their own. The people making that class are narrow. puny, cramped up in the upper story. Yet. they want you 10 follow them. They should know that leaders are not made narrow at the top. 4 true leader is broad. just as the lecturer Of a few days ago who pointed out defects prescribed Q remedy and offended nobody. It's pity that there are so few Of that class The rest of us-the great majority belong to the puny class No wonder that harmony is absent.

 division will not take anything from them, at the same time will leave Us with nearly eighty per cent of the population of the whole of Alaska
 Then we can demand and almost compel congress to give us the kind of power that will suit best.
 When congress considers Alaska it considers 1t as a whole and the population of the whole is found to be out of proportion to the size of the country, and the result is wait for an increase of population. Whereas. should we play the other tune and obtain divorce, the power to govern ourselves could not be denied on account of lack of population. But just so long as We play the old tune; just so long shall we be de nied our right that otherwise could not be de nied. Please Mir. Empire, give Us another tune
