Thou who holdest all the Nations
In the hollow of Thine hand.
Give us strength, and give us courage
To defend our Native Land.
May we offer for her safety
All the things our hearts hold dear;
Give her service, glad and loyal
When the call comes, loud and clear
North and South shall stand together,
East and West ul-tted be,
In the love of one great country,
Guarding her from sea to sea;
That no tyrant here may flourish,
And no foe possess the shore
Where the Pilgrim Fathers landed,
Seeking Peace, in days of yore.
Let the deeds of those who suffered
In the past, for Freedoms sake,
Stir our hearts to emulation,
Till our souls fresh courage take;
That thro' all the coming ages,
This, the land of liberty,
May give safety and protection,
To the Noble and the Free
G. II. Q,
TT is to my mind prayer for strength
not only the strength of our physical
selves, but the strength that comes
from God alone, the strength that no
man overcometh and which can only
bn gained by prayer and keeping GOD
ALWAYS before US as our guide"

THE OPENING OF THE YUKON RIVER

It has been long time since the biggest Spring newspaper story in the North the chroncling of the date-and that included not only the day of the month but the hour, minute and second-when the ice of the Yukon broke at Dawson and started down newspaper forethought measured by which was on it's northward journey the record for previous of that great Spring occurrence However while time has brought other interest the North which has dmmed the glamour of speculating on the ca prices of the Yukon ice and the suns rays. the very interesting and momentous Alaskan event With the opening of that great waterway through the heart of Interior Alaska in the early Summer the whole course of life in the North changes. Long roads and trails and dog teams lose their interest and the people everywhere from Whitehorse to Fairbanks Bettles and st. Michael begin a brief four or five months of very strenuous river navigation In that time inc supplies to carry the planning of long Winter are moved from Coast to the Interior Of Alaska, and the people, like thrifty animals of the forest store away the eats for another long Winter. The activities of the people change. The newspaper columns undergo complete transmorgrification The news IS of thronged passenger vessels and the peo pie who are coming and going rather than of hiber mating conditions.
 Therefore there is lot of interest in the news that comes from Whehorse that the Yukon is still hard and fast it in January and the indi cations that it will be later than usual this year before the steamers below Lebarge begin their Sum. mers work. However present indications may he deceptive, for great deal depends upon the condition of the weather in May than upon the thick

The citizens of the First Division of Alaska gave a fine exhibition of the appreciation and admiration they hold for Delegate Charles A. Suzer and the great work he is doing for Alaska the primary cleo ton yesterday by rolling up majority for him that presages his reelection, far his home sec ton of Alaska is concerned, at least-at this writing it is too soon to speak for other sections Ter ritory. The light Republican vote, not than 200 to 300 in the whole Division and the large Democratic vote indicated that the generally particpa in the Democratic primaries, and Delegate Sulzer's vote bids fair to exceed that of both Maoney and Wickersham by than one
 It is true, of course, that a great many voters did not participate in the primaries all. but all indications are that great majority of those who did not vote would give their support Suzer than Wickersham, The smalness of the vote in the Republican primary may be attributed to things
 dissatisfaction on the part of the Republicans with the candidacy of Wckersham for the Republican nom nation and the participation of the Wickersham forces In the Democratic primary in the interest of Maloney.
 Resentment to the campaign of abuse was waged against Delegate Suzer and the Democratic organization figured a lot character of the story that unfolded last night by ballot boxes. The machine politics" and the slanderous accusations against people who devoting their energies to the upbuildng Alaska fabrcations uttered for political purposes, and they showed their dspeasure by voting for Delegate Suzer and for Legislative ticket that is friendly him.
 The voters of the First Division did a very fine thing and did it handsomely. They gave a splendid demonstration of their capacity for selfgovenment

PROTECT THE PROSPECTOR
ValdeZ Miner)

(VaIdez Miner)
 The black bear, which is a playful animal with curiosity like woman's and a penchant for break ing prospectors caches is protected by law The brown bear which has a disposition like the kaiser and loves the genus homo like a does q mouse is protected by law. The Hon. Theodore Roosevelt and the Hon Dr. Thornaday, both ardenI big game hunters twhen the game is to death by a bunch of African natves), have entered a pro test against any changes being made in the Alaskan game laws, desiring that the bears may be saved for Fastener sporsmen with dollars than In the meantime the Alaska prospector furnish amusement for these vicious beasts by indulgng in antemortem footraces playing monkey and climbing sixteen foot tree with fourteen foot brute clawne at the base of his overalls The only excuse ever given for the existence of these predacious brutes is to give a man chance to sit up in and cuss the Government which fines him for shooting them Nearly every oldtmer in Alaska at time for his life with the odds all in favor the bear lection than they did. All unanimous in refusing to argue the point until they had climbed as high as possible and had drawn the tree up after them In all cases where they remained argue the right of way the marshals office scooped up the remains of the lesser party and sent letter to the folks at home telling of the virtues of the deceased If Congress desires to do a noble and can bring it about without the opposition eastern sportsmen 1t might be well to law protecting the pros pector and lining the bear for starting the war If matters keep on the way they going a new supply of prospecors will have to be shipped into the Ter rory the present stock is wind-broken and spay ined from tree-climbing. The supply of bears is still in good order.

CHAFFEE AND THE HUN
Seattle Times)


 A biography of Gen. Adna B Chaffee, recently issued, recalls the memorable incident when that blunt honest orceful American soldier officially re buked a predecessor of the German arstocratic loot who have plundered Belgium, Poland and Ru mania
 The episode occurred in 19OO after an interna- onal expedition had marched to and entered Picking The German troops who had been instructed by the present Kaiser to the natives in such way that for thousand years no Chinese shall dare to look upon German askance' did not arrive on the scene until Picking had been captured and the fight ing at end.
 Nevertheless the footing still was good The Teutonic forces, under command of Field Marshal Count Wadersee took section of the city which included the Chinese astronomical observatory valuable relics but of doubtful practical use Never theess the Germans dismantled the instruments and prepared ship them their country.
 Chaffee observed these arrangements with growing indignation In the end he dispatched the following somewhat heated letter to Von Waldersee:
 Having heard that the astronomical instru- ments being removed from the observatory, an officer of my staff went there yesterday and his return confirms the report. I have the honor to inform your excellency that my would yehemently denounce any off cer of it's service who might enter upon spola- tion of this sort and it will sincerely regret to learn that any Nation with which it operated to relieve the besieged legations in Picking authorizes or permits it's troops to in jure remove any instruments other parts of the observatory As commander of of the four cooperating columns I make to you respectful protest in this matter, and shall inform my government of the fact"
 The titled looer was very properly indignant that plain American soldier should address him such manner. and as a matter of diplomatic consideration to ruffied German feelings, very mild Tebuke was administered to Chaee.
 Within two months however the latter was pro. noted from the temporary to the permanent rank of majorgeneral and Theodore Roosevelt, then Vice President, took occasion to write the commander letter in which he made the significant statement that I've all your debtors for what you have in China. including your letter to Waldersee

YUKON'S FINANCES
(Daw son NeWs)


 Since there is movement at Ottawa to re. duce the annual allowance of the Federal Government to Yukon Territory. it is we'll make it known that Yukon is far from being charity
 The statement printed yesterday by the News shows that the Yukon annually contributes half million dollars to the Federal exchequer. for which the auditorgenerals report gives the Yukon credit
 Looking more closely into the matter it is found that many dutiable goods consumed here Which have been entered at Vancouver. Montreal and other Canadian ports and the duties paid at those ports and credited in the Government reports to those ports and not to Yukon.
 Parcels post brought into this Territory brings to the government a great revenue from sale of stamps and the credit for the S given to the city making the sale whereas. the Government never would make these sales it not for the Yukon buying the goods
 Other items charged against the people of Yukon should not be charged The telegraph line tra. far more of British Columbia than Yukon yet the charge is all made against Yukon Many British Columbia towns get the service of the line
 Indian affairs also charged against the Ter. ritory. The white people of Yukon have nothing to do with the Indian affairs, and the Indians are wards purely of the Federal Government and have no cor cern with the white people of this Territory on the burdens Of local affairs are shouldered Indian affairs, therefore should not he taken into the omy Of the white population. Indian schools and relief for Indians which is granted by the Federal government would be rendered them no doubt if there not white man in the country
 The customs outports the White Pass summit Atln and Carcross charged against Yukon and yet each of those ports is in British Columbia and in Yukon.
