without they get the approval of congress. if congress would grant that permission if would not be necessary to divide the whole territory into counties. Counties were formed, the legs- lature perhaps, would not make small coun- ties, Governor Swncford, one of the staunch- est of the supporters of territorial government in Alaska, contended that four counties one for each Judicial division of the territory, would be enough Probably it would be better to have two counties in southeastern Alaska, one with ketchikan for County Seat and ore with Juneau, and to permit the other divisions to decide for themselves
 At the present time the Organic Act pro vides for equal representation for each Judc- ial division in the territorial legislature and as a result the funds of the territory are divid- ed approximately among the four divisions Two of the divisions contain three fourth or more of the people and pay practically all of the taxes. Under territorial and county gov ernment system most of the money collected through taxation would be expended through the local organizations and in the sections of the territory where the taxes originated.
 This question has been too thoroughly threshed out, and too often not to permit us to take it for granted that the people under stand the advantages that would come from q full territorial organization. IL has been au- proved by the people of Alaska in practically every manner that has been given them to speak.
 Of course, if We had a full territorial form of government. the people would all have to take an interest in their government They ought to do that any way. Any self f-govcmmcnt d.. ponds upon the people and the interest they take in their government
