 Mayor Ray today is publishing a few simple rules for the conduct of our citizens during the time the Alas ka is in port. The principal points to be observed are: To not go on the dock or approach while the transport is landing; to keep out of the streets while the Presidential party is pass ing; to keep off the road with autos while the party is on it, and to not crowd about the hall while MT. and Mrs. Harding are meeting the cniE dren. Our citizens can see the pies ident to their hearts content at the depot, and will have a chance to meet him.

Why not have the Department of Commerce exercise control over "the rapidly depicting" fisheries of Washington, which are closer to the National capital, and allow a Board composed of Alaskans handle their own fisheries affairs. If this arrange ment has produced excellent results in the state of Washington" how much better would the results be in the Territory. AS we see it, legisla- tion is the only way to preserve the fish. Legislate the canneries out of the fresh water streams, and legis- the fishermen a mile or two from their mouths. Also fix legislation that will cause the canneries to pay Alaska a reasonable share of the expenses of running the Territory, in return for the depletion of our principal re- source Within a few years the fish will be gone, and Alaska will not be able to raise funds to run her gov ernment.
 The trouble with the fisheries to- day is that they are run by Washing ton and California capital instead of Alaskan capital, with all benefits ac- cruing to these states.

CONVENTION FACES
NATIONAL ISSUE

PORTLAND. Ore, Oct. 11.-"The
American Federation OF Labor was
acting on q much larger case than
the case Of William +. Dunno when
Dunno was unseated," said Matthew
Vol, vice president of the. A. f.
of L.
Dunno by himself was not impor.
tant enough to justify the day OF de-
bate and the making of a national
issue.
What the convention did was to
throw out the thing for which Dunno
stands as N of the half dozen most
prominent opponents in America.
"The American labor movement
threw out the last trace OF revolu-
tionary dogma, the last trace OF hos
tility to constitutional methods.
Dunno himself made. the issue.
When he declared for revolution, for
communism by revolutionary means,
for defiance to the constitution. for
the whole Russian program, he made
it impossible for a democratic trade
union movement to tolerate his pres
ence.
Make no mistake; it is the stern
front put up by labor that has held
revolutionary teaching down in Amer
lea. In Chicago where Foster started
his destructive work and where he
claimed his greatest strength, he. has
just been completely re~pudiated by
labor. This Chicago Federation of
Labor, following in the footsteps of
the Illinois state federation, has just
repudiated soviet Russia, the Foster
'amalgamation' scheme and the polit-
ical party idea.
american labor is holding the line
for democracy and for constitutional
and revolutionary progress. That is
why Dunno was unseated."
