TO GIVE OLD-TIMERs A CHANGE.

THE Pioneers of Alaska are enter taining a proposition to admit to membership all persons who have esided in the Territory fifteen years. This will apply to future residents as we'll as those who have resided here fifteen years up to the present. This will keep the membership of the or der up to it's capacity, and will also give persons who have resided in the
 Territory the stated time the privi- lege of joining this splendid order. The Pioneers are different from the ordinary organizations in that it re- quires a long and often-times arduOus probation for the prospective member 1t requires his identification with the building of an empire. It associates him with the ideals which built up

COME OVER INTO MACEDONIA

THERE are many firms in town who are shirking their obligation to the community. In other words they are trying to get something for noth- ing by not patronizing the columns of The Prospector and The Miner,- your home papers. which are working indefatigably to build up your town.
 Our time, our money and our heart are with the town of Valdez. We may be always found in the van for the betterment of civic conditions.
 The past year The Prospector and The Miner have turned loose among the merchants and people of this city S16,2O9 dollars. Of this money over $6,OOO has come to the city from out side. Were factory with this pay rool to offer to come to a modern, live, up-to-date city, it would be given every consideration.
 We ask for nothing but your pat ronage. We are entitled to that.
 When you refuse to support you home paper and allow others to do it, you are reaping benefits not accruing to you. You are creeping under the fence to see the ball game.
 Suppose Git is only problematical. at present, the Prospector would cease publication; we would lay off the larger part of our hands. and cut out expenses to the quick. as many have done on account of the ruinous prices of paper stock. Do you think the town would get along as well without a daily?
 You may say "it would be better off," for reasons over which you are too preJudiced to be an unbiased judge, but deep down in your heart you are aware that we are giving you the best paper you ever read for it's size and number of pages.
 Our contemporaries in the States ask us how we do it and make money.
 There are many people in town who do not take the paper who never fail to read every issue. How? Why,

THE landing of the machinery on the City dock Sunday morning for the new cannery was red-letter day for Valdez. This enterprise is sure to be a success, if there are any fish at all his year. and if this cannery makes a big pack it is certain that other companies will enter the field here. There is no reason why Valdez should not become a canning center. We are
 close to immense clam beds. and vast schools of fish run within sight of the city. Our harbor and waterfront is one of the best in the Territory and the nature of the bottom of the bay makes driving piling comparatively easy task. We believe too much at tention is paid to mining in this vii cinity and not enough to numberless other resources that lie at our door. To make a good town we must utilize every industry.

 They are peeking at the game thru a knothole. They are cheating us as we'll as themselves. We are enti- tied to their support but dollar ev- cry thirty days looks larger to them than a booming town a few years hence.
 We do not want to be forced to descend to the weekly, tank-tOwn stage. We want our paper to be your favorite bit of reading. We want you 10 get into the habit of putting on your slippers, lighting up the old pipe, and, with the baby on your lap, reach for the Prospector the first thing after supper.
 Sixteen thousand dollars is a lot of money to distribute among the cit izens of town of 1000. It means $16 in good, round iron men to ev- cry inhabitant. Of course, few of you have got it all, but it is entered into circulation, and that is the main thing.
 Give us all the patronage you can. We need it. Every dollar over and above our bare expenses goes into q larger and better plant. More tele- graphic news, more special features. improved service all around
 We are sending out the s. o. s. call to our friends. We want their assistance. If our enemies will only get acquainted with us they also will become our friends and well-wishers.
 Give us your patronage and we will grow and flourish as the prover- bial gourd; refuse it, and we must eventually wither and die.

CROWNED HEADS DOOMED.

If clairvoyance couid be invoked we probably should discover that sev- eral heads in Europe that wear the crown are resting uneasily. The re- Inarkable revolution in Russia-onc of the briefest and yet one of the most bloodless in history-seems to show that the masses are of one mind regarding royalty, even in a nation so heterogeneous and so uneducated as the Slavic empire. It may be imag- ined that the people of the more ad- vanced countries are tiring of kings who pretend to rule by divine right, and who are in reality but excres- ences upon the life of nation; suck ing it's lifeblood; useless drones who are not worth their luxurious keep.
 Russia has been the most backward important state in Europe and it's people nave been the most downtrod- den and oppressed. The victory of the liberals after the Russo-Japanese war was a decisive gain but even to-
 
 the people have in the government. is not representative (because of the limited franchise) in the sense that a modern parliament, like England 5 O. a congress like our own, is represen- tative. Yet the establishment of the duma through bloodshed in 1905 and the overthrow of the rule of Nicholas II. and his parasites, who are chiefly blamable for present conditions, show that the Muscovites are striving with some success for self-gOvernment.
 Should the rumblings of dissatis- faction spread we may expect to hear them next under the German throne, the Austrian throne, in Greece. Eng land, Norway and Sweden. Of all the above royal heads the Kaiser is the worlds leading exponent of the divine right of kings--a doctrine of the ancient and middle ages. He is a clever politician and has ruled his people with just enough pressure to produce the best results. He has pro- duced a representative republic out of a kingdom, and has honestly and eff fectively worked for the good of his people, But his fate as a real mOn- arch now depends on the outcome of

 l Evidently the Kaiser fears the leav-
 en of revolt. The divinity of king
 ship is at stake. The Czar was too
 weak, too vacillating, to read those
 signs of the times. or if he did read
 them, he was not equal to the task of achieving the reforms needed to ap- pease the people. It is the Kaiser's strength that he does not underesti- mate the peoples power and for that reason ne may be able, by voluntarily stripping himself of certain autocratic prerogatives, to keep his throne and maintain the loyalty of his subjects. AS the German chancellor says, however, there is certain to be a vast change in the machinery of European governments after the war and such change as is accomplished will be in the direction of democracy-if not the democracy of France and America, at least the practical democracy of Can ada and Australia.
