Alaska's First College.
(Cordova Times. }


The opening Of the Alaska Agricultural College
land School of Mines Fairbanks in September of this
year matter of greatest Importance to the people
of the Territory. We are entering upon a new era
This is progress that means permanency. With the
Opening of this institution the old idea of making
Alaska a temporary abode disappears. We con-
fronted wholesome fact that Alaska is build
ing for all time The home Is the unit around which
centers development. Whether or not we came
here with the idea that would soon depart is no
longer a question discussion. We have remained;
we have made homes here and following
the same course of constructive development that
marked the advance of civilization from the Atlantic
to the Pacific Coast.
We just rounding out generation of intense
pioneering work. History will some day estimate our
work at it's true value. 1t has been perfect 1t
will receive adverse criticism but for all that will
be entitled to credit The problems we have
failed to solve will confront the coming generation
and important duty is give this gener
educational advantages calculated enable it
arrive at the correct solution of these problems.
This college belongs to the people of this Territory
Congress in it's wisdom established the site for the
college where agriculture and mining be studied
believe, to the best advantage The Territorial
Legislature provided in the Act 1917 establishing
this institution that mo instruction either sectarian
in religion partisan in politics. shall be
mited in any department of the college; and
tartan of partisan test shall be allowed exercised
in the appointment of Trustees in the appointment
of instructors other officers of the college,
In the admission of students any other purpose
whatever"
This College is entitled in the fullest measure to
the loyal support of every resident of the Territory
Not only is the organization of this College matter
of pride to every Alaskan the citizens of the en-
tire Nation proud of the fact that American
progress again asserts itself and establishes the
"Farthest North Institution for higher learning in the
World"

SUPPORT THE FOURTH OF JULY
COMMITTEE.

There should be general and generous support OF
the Fourth of July Committee. The committee is hard
at 6rk;a~hppihg plans into shape and planning to
give the people program that will be interesting
entertaining and give opportunity for patriotic
preston The Fourth of July is the Nations birthday
Its observance represents Nationality our tribute
to the Fathers of the Republic allegiance to the
principles which mpelled them to adopt the Decara-
ton of Independence and which have been the guild
ing star of almost century and half of enlightened
government 1t is the greatest of all American days
In the calendar. 1t is appropriate that Juneau, the
largest and most important city in the Territory,
should fttngly observe the day and to make that
possible there should be, said, very generous and
energetic support given to the excellent committee
which has the celebration in charge.

AMERICAS FIRE LOSSES.

The fire losses in the United States for the year
1s21 were approximately s4S5, 100000 according to
fire insurance underwater reports. This is an in
the preceding year of $3S,OO0,O0o. 1t
amounts nearly $3.50 per capita. 1t is more than
the interest the National debt.
This is tremendous annual drain on production
in the United States 1t is more than half the value
of the average annual wheat crop of the last twenty
years loss of all proportions greater than
any other civilized country has to contend with.
1t would that with the wonderful scientific
developments in the United States the splendid show
ing made in essening the dangers of disease the
enormous increase in the per capita power to pro-
duce, that something is not done to shut off some
of the of appalling waste.

HELPING BRITISH COAL MINERS.

The Amrican coal strike is stimulating British
coal exports and sales for future delivery This
trates of the destructive features of general
strikes. The facts have shown that general strike
rarely wins anything for anybody while it always
a lot.
At this time the only possible good that is des-
cernable from the strike is that the Starving
is. causing quite number of those formerly engaged
in coal mining to find work at other vocations and
when the strike shall have ended may expect a
leesenng of the over-suppy OF coal miners the
country. That would mean more employment for
those who remain with the industry
In the meantime Great Britain will supply many
markets with coal that formerly supplied from
the United States.

in 1913. We have abundant volume of good money

shrinkage in business would lead to expect and
when they it usually is due to bad management
misfortune rather than inability realize on good
securities to get money to carry solvent business

greater volume of business than before the
war.
1t is different in other countries Great Britain
has probably nearer attaining pre-war bust
basis than any other European country Her
exchange is within 10 per cent. of par Yet her
exports nearly so per cent greater in 1913 than
now and her imports then exceeded those by
about 81 per cent. The showing in other European
countries is not nearly good

BUY AND BUILD THE RECREATION PARK.

Mayor Robertson has designated next Monday
afternoon half holiday for the of arous-
ing general the efforts of the Juneau Fire
Depart ment in under taking to provide Juneau with
recreation park and playground and give the people
opportunity to assist in putting the site for the
purchase which the Firemen have very generously
proposed to make the initial payment in condition
Or immediate He asks that all who do so
attend at the grounds prepared to do such work as
they may be called upon to do toward that end
There should be a very general response to the
request of the Mayor. The people of this City must
not permit the very fine public spirited offer of the
Firemen &c. by the board. The Fire Department
is ready to make the first payment of $500 the
property needed for recreation purposes and the Fire
will contribute great deal of the work that
is to put the park in condition for baseball
games and other athletic sports. 1t is willing to
do this, however, unless the city people show
willingness to take interest that will the
success of the venture 1t is up to the public to give
evidence of it's interest.
The people of the City ought show their appre
citation of the Fire Departments generous offer by
cooperating in such way and the extent that

GERMAN TRADE WITH GREAT BRITAIN.

Germany was the chief customer in Great Britain
wool trade during 1921, according to the Nationa
Bank of Commerce in New York. Total German i'm
ports of all commodities from Britain however
we're lower during that year than in 1920 and Brit
ish consumption of German goods declined nearly one
third, the bank says in the June number its maya
zine, Commerce Monthly The publication proceeds
Imports of German goods into Great
Britain during 1921 valued at $50,
$4,000, nearly third less than the total
of G30,252,000 in the previous year. The
value of British exports to Germany also de-
clined from G21,707,000 in 1920 to G17,-
$4,000 in 1921. while re-exports of foreign
and colonial goods decreased in value from
929.3S2,0 600 to G22.S97,00O
During 1921 Germany the destna-
ton for 116,409,000 pounds of British re-
exports of wool, compared with 25,O13-
600 pounds in 1920, and 93197 600 pounds
in 1913. and in addition took seven million
pounds of British home grown wool.

OregOn's Depressing Primary Campaign
New York Worldl


With the denomination at the Republican pr
mares of Gov Olcott by narrow margin practi
Ically assured, Oregon from the contest
wholly dishonored. In vicious and degrading cam
paign the State has made a Iamentable exhibition
OF itself. But for the defeat of Charles Hail. the
Ku Klux Khan candidate it could have no cause for
consolation
Oregon has deserved the reputation in the past OF
being progressive and highly intelligent State 1t
as an amazing thing that community regarded
should be the scene of bitter campaign in which,
the neglect of practical issues first appeal
to racial and religious passion. The Ku Klux Khan
true to its established character held the primary
contest to the lowest level by stirring up animosites
among the voters against Jews, Catholics Negroes
and all persons of foreign birth 1t deliberately
Iabout provoking strife throughout the State and
)captalizng bigotry and intolerance.
Thre is no place among decent AMERICANS for the
spirit Of meanness and malice that seeks race
against race or draw the line according religious
belles In politics it is infamous. The pity is that
oregon so far forgot itself to give Gov Olcott
more convincing majority and neglected to admin
lister lesson to his enemies that would carry tar
beyond the boundaries of the State.
