ALASKA NEEDS AN ALASKAN FOR
 GOVERNOR.

The story brought back from the South by Phil Abrahams the veteran business man of Skagway, that the politicians of the Fifth Division are busy parceng out the Alaska offices, is the same that other people from the South are telling. One man who recently returned from Southern visit said that he heard Alaska politics talked in Seattle in the few days that he had been there than he had heard since the election in Juneau. It is said that the Seattle Alaskans planning or having an Outside appointed Governor of Alaska.
 The Empire does not believe these politicians will succeed in their efforts It believes that President Harding will select the Governorshp this Territory real resident of the North-one who has lived here and thus acquired the Alaska spirit from the viewpoint of who is in looking out instead of the one who is looking in. The welfare of Alaska, matter how greatly desired is less of
 benefcent theory with the Outsider It is abstract proposition. It is very vital thing to the man whose home is here, who has lived and struggled with Alaska problems as he has with his private affairs To him these Alaska problems are concrete propositions -actualites that directly concern his welfare and those of his neighbcrs and daily associates They part and parcel of Alaska life
 The Governor of Alaska should be strong man with good business judgment all whose interests and for long time have been involved in the welfare of the Territory, of vision and courage who will think more of results than of playing the game of politics for personal aggrandzement. It would be all but disastrous at this time to send a man here who would require two three years to master problems and to learn look upon them from the viewpoint of the who lives in the Territory.
 Alaska has had but Governor sent to her from the Outside within the last quarter of a cen tury. He very fine and very capable man, . patriot, and he worked with all his large intelligence and keen energy to make good Governor He was an adaptable man, yet il only toward the enf or his administration that he caught his stride and was marching with the actual residents of tht North We have no time to waste now We need {; GtVernor who can get to work immediately fo Alaska, and keep it up.

Receipts from the National Forests for the Gsca year 1g20 were greater by $435,O67 than for the previous year, according the annual report of Col w. B. Greeley of the United States Forest Service The total receipts for the fiscal year 1920 Were $4,793,482.
