ALASKA FOR ALASkANS.

Portland papers characterize the passing of the recent fisheries case tax as spite work" and insinuate the slight increase in taxation was the result of the presence Of Delegate Dan A. Sutherland at Juneau, during legislative sittings
 It is hard to convince these Outside papers that Alaska can have any but ulterior motives in placing a tax on it's resources. They forget that for ev- cry dollar paid in taxes by Outside corporations two dollars are paid by Alaskans; on the same valuation of properly. It is an undeniable fact that Outside interests are getting off much easier than they deserve. For many years they have dipped lavishly into the Territory's resources and, in stroyed them. At this time the Terri tory was sparsely settled and no ob- jection was raised by the residents, most of whom were here for the same purpose as the looters.
 Today Alaska, especially along the coast, is fairly we'll populated, by a vigorous, virile race who plan to make their home here. Without any desire to discourage capital, they de- mand that it pay fair and just pro portion of the expenses of running the Territory, and even insist that this be done. The recent tax passed is not confscatory; it is not even as high as is paid by canneries operating in the States. From $34,000,00O mil lion in resources, the Territory re- ceives back about $7OO0O0, from which may be deducted the amounts paid for trap licenses, fshermens licenses and other penalties; leaving approximate ly s500,000 derived from the product. At two per cent valuation, the fish pack would bring Alaska about $6S0- 900. When one remembers that the canneries, unless operating within the

A PLETHORA OF LAWS

The Pacific Fisherman takes the Gateway to task for recent editorial in which we stated that "the fisher men stretched their nets from bank to bank in the rivers of Alaska, thus preventing the fish from passing on to the spawning grounds" The editor of the well-known magazine asks us if we are not aware there is law on the statute books against fisher, men doing this; and if we will not in form our readers of the error.
 Bless the dear, trustful, confding soul; of course we know there is such law. We know also that there is 6 law requiring trap aprons to be down on certain days of the week. We

The Gateway will hearafter furnish its readers with the illustrated service of the International Syndicate, which comprises portraits of well known men and women of the world, as well as camera news of the world at large. We are trying to enlarge the Gate way to a point where it will meet the requirements of this locality and the Far Western field. To do this we ask the support of every citizen. It is very expensive running daily in Alaska, and we need the financial as- sistance of our friends to do this We prefer to drop into the weekly class rather than run paper of which the town would be ashamed.

confines of incorporated towns, pay not one cent of tax on their buildings, machinery, boats, and other equip ment it appears to Alaskans shat the taxes exacted for doing business in the Territory is reasonable enough.
 Of late years many Alaskans, living in the Territory the year around, have started in the cannery business ln small way. In every case these plants have been greatly beneficial to the ad- jacent country. Local help and local fishermen are hired, and these busi- nesses are on the high road to devel- op the country and establish perma- nent population. The larger compa nies, with a powerful lobby at the Ma tional capital, have discriminated against these smaller packers or inde- pendent concerns, and in many cases have caused a loss to them by con- trolling the market. The recent re serve order further affected these smaller concerns, taking away their fishing grounds and giving them to the larger cannery companies.
 We believe the home concern must be protected, even at the expense ol Outside concerns. They are more es- sential to the upbuilding of the Terri tory and deal sQuarer with the peo- pie. For some time the packing com panies in the States have insisted that Alaska had no control of her fisher ies; as they belonged to the govern ment But they forgot that the Ter ritory did have control of her taxes, and the backfire started by the legis- lature has badly singed their toes, judging from the yell that went up.
 We believe in Alaska for Alaskans. We believe in the protection of home concerns to the exclusion of all oth- CTS. We believe that capital should be encouraged to come to the Terri tory, and that sane and just laws should be enacted for their control. And in the present case they certainly cannot claim that they are paying more to do business here than an Alaskan pays, for they are not.

know there is law against bootleg ging and policemen accepting bribes, and against murder, and few other things. But if this trustful soul be- lieves for one minute any of these laws prevent the misdemeanors and crimes they aim to stop, he is out or place in the grating town of Seattle.
 Our courts are cluttered up each term by violations of these laws by cannery firms, the same as the daily papers of Seattle are cluttered up with violations of Washington laws. So long as men make laws there will be found men to break them.

EVERY Man, woman and child in Seward should be prepared to help entertain the congressional delega- tion. These visitors should be shown every courtesy in the way of enter tainment, but we believe that Seward should forego every other thing to point out to these visitors the advan- tages of our site as a railroad termi- nus; the natural advantages of our harbor, and the environments which go to make this the leading port in Alaska. These men will see Alaska at it's best; they will have no knowl- edge of storm or snow. Their conclu- sions are bound to be erroneous to a great extent, but it is up to us to dis abuse them of many of their ideas.
