TO ADVERTISE ALASKA

Bureau officials at Washington are cision that a large sum is to be ap- propriated for advertising Alaska, as public be attracted This has been amply proved by the many American ing to and from Alaska who have col lectively during the past twenty years expended three million dollars in ad- vertising scenic attractions and indus trial opportunities of the Northland. Naturally one cannot expect to hear that the government would appropri- ate proportionate sum annually for any such purpose but any expenditure in the populous centers of the East cannot help but attract attention to the Territory and at the same time it will be helpful to the Territory in many other ways. The greatest care, however, should be used by those who prepare these advertisements, to pre- vent any rush to the North of indi- gents, laborers or others not possess ing a small amount of capital with which to provide for their own needs, otherwise the government would be greatly embarrassed in having to send ship north to bring such people out. For years past Alaska advertis- ing has ever discouraged this partic- ular class from moving northWard. Conditions are so unlike any other country that the only people desired from an industrial viewpoint are those poss sessed of either the ability or cap- ital to invest and then develop. To ad- vertise the scenic attractions for the tourists and then the wonderful opA portunity for legitimate investment and industrial development will prove of the greatest possible benefit to the Territory at large.

under Democratic national admins tration. Just how valuable he is go- ing to be when the party he has been bitterly fighting for years returns to national authority, as it certainly will next March, remains to be seen. Whether or not MT. Gompers should compromise the cause of organized labor by trying to drag it along with him in his biennial campaign for the Democratic party is, of course, ques- tion that is open for debate.
 However, just keep this in your mind all the time in estimating the campaign output of MT. Gompers. He is a staunch, partisan Democrat; al- ways has played and always will play the game that way. He has as deep seated hatred of the Republican party as that which obsesses Woodrow Will son himself.
 A third of a century ago. in Hay market Square, Chicago, bombs were exploded at an anarchist demonstra- ton and hundreds of spectators, in cluding many policemen, were killed CT injured Several professional anar- chists were arrested for cOmplicity Tn the plot, were found guilty and sentenced to be hanged for the crime. MT, Gompers participated in the hear Ing which took place at Springfield, H., before the governor of the state, in behalf of the convicted men. He declared in his remarks on that oc- casion that if these anarchists were hanged, it would set back the cause of organized labor twenty years. The anarchists convicted of the crime were duly hanged, and everybody knows now whether or not this eXecu- tion set back the causetof organized labor single minute It is probable that MT. Gompers may be badly mis taken today as to what is in the best interests of unionism, as he was or that occasion Certainly organized labor as a whole is not properly repre- sented in MT. Gompers' appearance every two years as a Democratic party campaigner, always sure tha
 his party is the loving friend of labor and that the Republican is the enemy of mankind.
