MACHINERY IS
 NOW ON HAND :.
 AT FUNTER BAY
Spruce Mills Eastern Firm Will Soon Be in Operation with Capacity of
 15O.OOO Feet.

1. The arrival of the Admiral Good rich on Friday last at Funter Bay with large cargo of mill machin- cry marks the first step in the man ufacturing of spruce lumber exclus- ively in the vicinity of Juneau. g
 An interview from Superintendent pekoyich of the Funter Bay Mining lCo.. published in The Empire seve- eral weeks ago, was to the effect that the machinery had been ordered from the East and had been given special freight clearance by the Gov ernment officials and that a con cession had been secured by East ern capital on large bodies of Alaska spruce. .'..''~
 l. A. Bader, manager of engineer in charge for the Liberty Spruce and Pulp Co.,, of Wilmington, Delaware. arrived on thes last trip of the Spa kane and left the latter part of last week to superintend the installation of the machinery.
 The mill will be installed near the plant of the Funter Bay mill which is now in operation and the sawmill will be run largely by the same power used for the mining activities, al though it is understood that an aux Hilary steam plant is also to be in stalled for use in the new mill. Four units of 10000 capacity each, are to be installed at once, which will give the mill a total capacity of better than 150000 feet per day. It is reported that over 100000 feet of spruce has been acquired by the company already.
 By next Spring, the company now installing the new mill, expects to have a pulp mill in connection with capacity of 40 tons per day, which will be the first paper pulp mill to be established in Alaska.

COMMUNICATED

Juneau, Sept 23.-To the Editor. The efforts of James Wickersham and his friends to make it appear that Mir. Wickersham is a firm advo- cate and believer of full form of Territorial Government for Alaska, are directly opposed to the evidence and the facts. He has declared on more than one occasion privately that the people of Alaska were not ready for a full form of home rule, one of his excuses being that the big corporations would control af fairs, and therefore string should be attached, leaving affirmative pow CT in the hands of Congress.
 In 1913 in Cordova the writer brought to the attention of Judge Wickersham that many Alaskans were wanting to know why Alaska should not be allowed county form of government" under a home rule measure, so that they could elect their own peace officers. He replied that in the first place the distances were too great and the population were too scattered, and the expense of the Territory in main taining county form of govern ment, such as had been included in all previous Territorial measures, would be too great; that it was better plan to continue to allow the Federal government to stand the expense and have their own officers. The writer was convinced by his ar guments at the time, and also his 1 to secure a full Territorial form of government for Alaska, and there fore it was better to take half a loaf than none at all However, with
 the passing of the years, and the insistent cry from all Alaskans and
 their party platforms, as well as the
 willingness of the National govern
 ment at Washington to accord Al l aska a full form of Territorial gov ernment, and no further action taken
 on the part of the Delegate, his pro- l testations and excuses are merely
 political camouflage, and his adyo-
 cacy of statehood more political bunk to throw the people off the
 track. But as Lincoln said, You
 may fool all of the people some of
 the time, some of the people all of
 the time. but you can't fool all of
 the people all of the time."
