A Service To The BOurgeoisie.

"But we still fight against the aristocray of

mentary and evident truth cannot be disregarded.
1t is precisely this fault that the German left

petty bourgeois character of the unions they con-

He says he had surplus 'of material to draw from last night flor the first time since he arrived here, and he hopes to keep the or Iganization in that shape until the danger period has been passed. It had been planned by the Fair banksans to return to their homes tomorrow, but they have decided to remain over until Sunday, and even longer should their services continue to be needed here beyond that time. Brick Eichel is the only member ,of the Fairbanks squad who has be
 come incapacitated since coming to Nenana. He is patient in the

JEFFERSON PUTS
 EDITOR RIGHT ON
 PLAN FOR NORTH

lexplanation being contained in a letter written by MT. McPherson to Editor Elmer Friend of the Seward Gateway, who is not in accord with the plans of the secretary of the !who are trying to solve the Alaska problem:
 Seattle, April p, 1920.
 MT. Elmer A. Friend, The Seward
 Gateway, Seward, Alaska.
 My Dear MT. Friend Your shor; editorial in the issue of March 25th raised the question in my mind al to whether many of our Alaskan friends are not confused as to the ipurport of the Development Board measure, introduced by Hon. Charles F. Curry, chairman of the house committee on the territories. This measure is to be the basis of an exhaustive study by the com- mittees of the house and senate in order to formulate a constructive policy for the utilization of the natural resources in Alaska, that will result in building local indus tries and an increasing permanent population, and provide for the eff cient administration of such policy 1 by a board resident in Alaska. 1 It is true that this will provide for another bureau, but it will elim- mate, as far as Alaska is concerned, |, some eight or ten bureaus and com missions now directed from Wash lington, and will center the responsi- bility of these in one bureau that will be charged with one duty only the prosperous growth of Alaska. i I thoroughly agree with you and with all my other Alaskan friends lthat Alaska should have home rule, land there is no question that We
 will get home rule as soon as we
 can show an increasing stable pop-
 ulation.
 Even when Alaska becomes a
 state the interests vested in the pro- posed Development Board, excepting ,the administration of the fisheries,
 will not be transferred to the people
 of Alaska. If it Were possible at this time or in the near future to |get Congress to vest the administra- ton of the fisheries with the people iof Alaska, 1 would not favor this function being vested even temper ,arily with the Development Board. T don't believe that it will be DOS tSible to secure the transfer of the fisheries to the people of Alaska un- til there is an increasing stable pop ulation. With this exception the functions of the board will always
 be administered by the Federal Gov
 ernment as they have been in every public land state. Our only alter native is to secure a means whereby they may be administered efficiently Tn Alaska by men charged with this one responsibility, rather than by
 officials and clerks at Washington having little interest in furtheriny Alaska's welfare.
 fully realize the hard task we have ahead of us in securing T
 broad constructive policy and eff
 cient administration, because of the
 disinclination of the federal bureaus to be deprived of any of their func-
 tions.
 ;t l, however, believe that if we all work constructively to the one end
 of national policy that will make for prosperous Alaska, we will us timately succeed.
