A SATISFACTORY PLATFORM

(From Juneau Empire)
 Republican writin gto the Cordova Fines suggests these four propositions as program for that party for Alaska should it come into power:
 1. A full territorial government.
 2. Alaska affairs to be handled by Alaskans.
 5. Less conservation fanaticism and more development.
 4. Horse sense in the legislature.
 That would be very satisfactory program for any political party. It's first proposition is one to which the Democratic party has been committed for manay years, and one to which all political parties and other organiza- Mons in Alaska should be committed The other propositions have also been parts of Democratic and Republican platforms, and are supported by prac- tieally everybody in Alaska.
 This writer, discussing full terri torial form of government, says:
 ''The only territories which have been denied full form of territorial government heretofore were those in which the preponderant part of the population was of foreign or Indian birth. This does not obtain in Alaska, where there are at least three white citizens of the United States to each Indian or nOn-citiZen. It can not be said that we are not intelligent enough to govern ourselves; the census shows an almost infinitesimal deqree of illiteracy This leaves but one req soh for the refusal of the United States government to let us handle our own affairs, namely, the extent sf the territory and it's scant popula- tion compared to it's size This argu- ment did not deter the government from granting self-government to other territories Given the right to . control over their own resources, it did not take long to get the popula- tion. And so it will be with Alaska When we are allowed to get away from the Washington bureaucracy men and capital will soon be hers to de- vslop the richest country out of aoors.'
