UPON hearing strange voice say
that the moon was leaning
against an old stump or the ground,
the two circus monkeys slid down the
cocoanut tree like tremen down e
creased pole. If the moon was any

it,

Fnat, the .fairyman took out the
large round mirror he had brought in
one Of his great shoes, and out of the
other shoe he took the rice they had
brought from China. After that he
made a small hole in the ends Of two
cocoanuts and filled them with the
rice. The cocoanuts he then hid.
Next, the three travellers hid them
selves behind the mirror and had just
got settled when the monkeys came
sliding down the tree.
"Here'a the moon," called FIppc-

Some day some Alaskan will go to Washington and bring back to the people of this Territory the authority to exercise their right to govern them selves and the man who does that will write his name into the history of Alaska, in the hearts of Alaskans, in manher as mperishable as the name of Lewis Cass is enshrined in the history of Mich- gan and the hearts of those of that State The righr Of self government is an American right that has been denied the people of Alaska and the history of the march civilization from the Atlantic to the Pacific has demonstrated that sef-government is the most practicable government-the government that for progress in development and the govern that builds strong self-reliant men and women
 The government which Alaska has is the meres husk. It's place is among the moth-eaten relics of things that put aside when the embattet farmers of the Colonies defeated the hired Hessians and Red Savages of George IT., and by their blood dedicated America to the cause of freedom.
