The Wrangell sentinel., 1920-03-04

The Sentinel is issued on Thurs day this week as usual, but that would not have been possible had it not been for the fact that Wrangell has an up. to-date ma- chine shop.. Whenever anything goes wrong in our mechanical de partment the first person we think of is MT. Gingrass. Wran- gell could no more get along with out the machine shop than it could without the hotel, bank or drug store.

"And the Goose Hangs Hiah."

The most popular explanation of the origin of the expression, Everything is lovely and the goose hangs high" is this: That 1t comes from the southern country amusement known as goose pulling" A goose, its neck carefully plucked and well greased, was hung by it's feet to a branch of tree. The men would ride past at gallop, trying to catch it by the neck and pull It's head off. The better the goose was in lodging the greater the fun. When the goose hung high, so that the competi- tors had to stand in their stirrups to grasp it, the joy was the greatest. An other suggested origin is that it refers to the fact that wild geese fly in clear weather; this explanation would change "hangs' to 'honks."

A volume might be collected of in- nocent but barbarous perversions of the English language. The latest comes from the projectors of new Siamese newspaper, who have distrib- uted the following notice: "The news of English we tell the latest. Writ i'd perfectly style and most earliest. Do a murder git commit, we hear of It and tell it. Do mighty chief die, we pub fish 1t, and in borders of somber. Staff has each one been college and write like Kipling and the Dickens.

They also tell us how closely the things of Heaven and the things of Earth are re- lated. They also show that a man cannot help the Earth much unless he has considerable of Heaven in him.

Lithuanian Courtships.

There are no June brides in Llthu- ania, for during that month the maid is too busy in her garden and the man in his fields. No time can be spared for courtship or marriage during the spring or summer or autumn. But in the winter, when the harvests are stored away and when the maidens have long evenings in which to sit by the fire and spin and weave their lovely linen and woolen cloths. sing ing alr the while, the young men call their matchmaking friends and the short courtship takes place.

REGARDING NATURALIZATION
 DIFFICULTIES
Apparently No Remedy for the Difficulties. Encountered
 by Applicants for Citizen ship Under Present System.

Hon. K. w. Jennings, Judge

 Juneau, Alaska
 Sir
 l have been instructed by the Americans of Wrangell to address your Honorable Court upon the subject of naturalization here.
 Under present conditions the applicant is compelled to make three trips to Juneau or Ketchikan, once to declare intentions, once with two witnesses to notify Clerk of intended completion of papers and once with two witnesses to com plete citizenship.
 Since expense of travel, sub sistence and often wages of witness es must be borne by the applicant, the total cost may reach four or
 Being uninformed as to the immutability Of these laws l would respectfully beg to be enlightened as to
 Ist. Whether deposition, cer- tifed by your representative here, the U. s. Commissioner, would suffice in declaration of intention;
 2d. Whether deposition of witnesses and formal notice to Clerk of Court by applicant, both certified by Commissioner would suffice;
 3rd. Whether similar depo- sition of witnesses could be pro- duced by the applicant ill his final before Your Honor.
 If the Statutes forbid any or all of these relief methods, would it be possible for the Honorable Court to set a date each year when our applicants might appear before Your Honor, enroute between Juneau and Ketchikan?
 It will be apparent that the pre- sent expensive method acts as a severe deterrent in Americanizing our population.

WOULD REMOVE CERTAIN VOTING
 RESTRICTIONS
American Organization of Wrangell Passes Resolution Calling for Action by the Territorial Legislation.

Owing to the peculiar condi- tions existing in thg North there are a large number of citizens who at every election, are de- prived of their right of franchise on account of being away from the place where they registered.
 This state of affairs should not exist. If a citizen who is regis tered in Wrangell should be work ing in the c in ity of Craig at the time of election it seems that it would be only fair to permit him to vote at Craig.
 At the last meeting of the Am erican organization the Rev. H. P. Corser introduced a resolution recommending the passage of a bill by the Alaska legislature which would in a large measure overcome the present voting re- strictions. The resolution, which was adopted. is as follows:
 RESOLVED, That the Americans of Wrangell recommend to the legis- lature of Alaska the following bill, and ask that it or something simi- lar be enacted, accomplishing the the same purpose, and made a law of Alaska.
 I. When a person on register ing at such a place, and in such a manner as the law provides, shall say that he does not expect to vote in the precinct in which he registers, he shall so indicate it to the registrar, and shall receive from him an identification envelop on which he shall write his own name in full with the name and address of the registrar.
 I. The aforesaid person may then vote in the following manner in any Alaska voting precinct:
 He shall present bis envelop to any judges of election who shall have him write his own name, the name of the registrar and his ad- dress.
 They shall then satisfy them- selves that his handwriting is the same as that in the envelop.
 He shall then be given a lawful ballot, and shall vote the same in the way prescribed by law.
 He shall enclose the ballot in the envelop, seal ii and give it to the judges of election, who shall enclose the same in an envelop provided for same, and shall send it by mail to the registrar where the aforesaid voter shall have re- gistered.
 On receiving the same the regis trar shall refer to his registry book, and on comparing the writ ing on the identification envelop with the registry book, shall satis- fv himself that the writing on the envelop is by the same person as registered.
 He shall then place the envelop in the regular ballot box.
 The judges at a time not more than two weeks from a local cleo ton and not more than four weeks from a Territorial election shall meet and count the aforesaid bal lots and add. the results to the count that has already been made.
