WAGES AT JUNEAU.

The statement of Gov. Thomas Riggs of Alaska to the house con- mittee on appropriations that he is unable to get along on his salary of S7,0O0 is likely to make office holding in the Territory unattrac- tive, says recent issue of the Se- attle ost-Intelligencer. In addition to his salary, the Government fur nishes him mansion at Juneau with heat, light, and janitor service free of charge Despite these gen. erous provisions, the Governor in formed the committee that to main tain his position he spent S12,530 last year. The committee refused to allow him an increase in salary of $3,0n0 year on the rather un- sympathetic theory that lot of people in the country are having q harder time than the Governor in making both ends meet.
 1 The travelling expenses of the Governor, which are paid by the Government. give the only means of comparing costs in Alaska with thosc ,of Washington. where the governor is remunerated at the rate oi s6,. 900 year. The itemized accounts of tour" of the Territory taken by Gov. Riggs in the fall of 1918 were before the committee. Under the head of "porterage" on the rail road trip between Cordova and Chit ina, the Governor spent on behalf of the Government 25 cents, whici
 does not appear to be any higher

left under the impression that the Governor spent the luncheon and dinner hours under water. When the Governor got to Nome few weeks later the price of baths went up and the high cost of living be- gan to get in its Work. In ex- plaining a charge of $1 for bath lat Nome the Governor puts in the parenthetical statement. Gould not get a bath cheaper" However, thereafter the price of bathing at Nome fell 50 percent, as the items indicate the chief executive was able to find a place where this necessity was dispensed at 50 cents each.
 It appears from the account that one can get a good breakfast at Nome for $1.75, and sometimes for so little as 50 cents, but shoe shines cost 25 cents copy and pressing "a suit of clothes s2. which gives the fleeting impression of profiteer- ing.
 Taking the account as a whole, the charges in Alaska do not appear to be much higher than in Wash ington. If the Governor of Alaska runs behind at the rate of S5,530 a year on a salary of S7.0OO, it is easy to see where the officeholders in the state of Washington have d hard time to get along Doubtless the taxpayers will hear a good deal about that phase of officeholding when the next legislature meets.

PROFITS AND BOLSHEVISTS.

While it is hard to believe the time will ever come when Ameri cans will rise against their govern ment, developments of the past sev- eral years, and especially since the war, cause one to wonder when the limit of endurance will be reached. That the people of the United States are being hard pressed by conditions which are becoming steadily more intolerable, is apparent. even at this distance from the centers of monopolistic activities; but it is doubtful if Alaskans realize to what limits our government officials have permitted captains of industry and finance to go in their frenzy for greater and still greater profits.
 The war, we are told. added twen- ty thousand names to the already stupendous list of American mill ionaires, and it is quite within req son to presume that owners of millions before the war were not idle while the great struggle was in progress. If the war made so many millionaires, it must have made also many multimillionaires. The lust for wealth, the like of which the world has never seen. appears to have obtained a firm hold upon our nation, with no restraining hand at Washington to curb the profiteers.
 It has been said that official Washington actually encouraged pro- fiteering during the war by the in auguration of the cost-plus system of contracting and failure to ex- ercise proper supervision over manu- featuring. But whether this is true or not, it is fact well known to everyone that the cost of everything mounted rapidly during the war period, and is still mounting, with no apparent excuse for further ad- vances and without a corresponding increase in wages paid. In fact, while profteering continues unre- strained, the tendency now is to lower wages rather than to increase them further. And Washington wonders why it is that unrest is growing throughout the country, and seeks to silence those who are cry, ing out against the injustice of present-day conditions.
 The great wonder is that Ameri cans have stood for so much. They have been patient almost beyonC the point of understanding, anC those few who have permitted them selves to be carried away by theil resentment against the one-sidec system suggest what may be ex pected from a greater number i official Washington remains muci longer indifferent to conditions.
 Some idea of the way things ar' going in the States is contained il dispatches received this week, an nouncing dividends earned by sev eral of the American trusts whicl are conducting their affairs in high-handed manner, much after tn style of Seattle bandits: One 0 them is the Union Bag & Pape company, which has declared stoc dividend of 50 percent within tn past few days, and another is tn great American Tobacco company which has modestly admitted in
