lie mind. In this class we place foremost the so-caled Honorable Scott C. Bone. If the truth were known concerning this man the public would know that the lawlessness which exists today in Alaska is due to him, and that he is the hub of the wheel around which the law vioIators turn. The few honest deputy marshals and pro- hibition officers that we have are not allowed to perform their duty by Governor Bone, for the reason that if the law were impartially enforced, the highest public and Territorial officials in this land would have to face the Grand Jury with the probability of fine jail sentence. Strongly supporting Governor Bone we have the preda- tory cannery and trap interests The dominat- ing personality in this group is J. R. Heckman, man who must have his liquor every day. Other leading lights are George D. Beaumont, United States Marshal; H. V. Means, Prohibition Director; Carl Thiel, Surveyor General and Ar thur Shoup District Attorney ,and various news papers like the Juneau Empire; and the present leaders of Masonic organizations like H. IT. Tripp a Thirty-third Honorary Degree Mason, who travels around the country stirring up prejudice and supporting corrupt public officials Not the least of these influences is John w. Troy and Stroller White of Juneau, who daily poisons the public mind by stirring up race prejudice, dwen- ing on false political issues and championing the cause of their own vicious circle.

"The Fight Has Just Begun"

Members of the legislature and the people of the other Divisions must not run away with the idea that this is matter that concerns the First Division alone. If MT. Paul is able to put over his boss-ship of the First Division there will be Pauls in the Second and Third and Fourth Divisions to do there what our Paul is doing to this Division.
 Alaska cannot permit the control of the Ter 11tory to fall in the hands of one who casts the Indians votes and those who would traffic with such boss. The development of Alaska, the homes of those who live here and all of those in- terests here the schools, institutions and in- dustries of the Territory must not be subjected to this hazard.
 "The fight to break this system has just begun"
 No truer word was ever said. Until the cor ruptiOn which eminates from the mind and the pen of John w. Troy and Stroller White ceases to flow in this Territory the fight will continue For the moment man named Paul is expressing the public's protest against the vicious system, and we are encouraged to think that the Prophet of Baal predicts that other citizens having in mind the same principles as this man Paul will arise in other divisions, and we predict that when this is done, be such leader an Indian, an Aleut or of our beloved white race, good citizens all over Alaska will rally to the support of such leader The fight has indeed just begun, and we will prevail, for though they be desperate men, our couse is just.

The Fight Has Just Begun

During almost the entire political history of Alaska politics it has been controlled by one or two large interests who have governed this coun- try. "TO make money out of it, During the past three years there has sprung up an Organi- zatOn which Is determined to do what 1t can to end the vicious circle. The original principles of the Alaska Native Brotherhood was to prepare it's members to exercise their privileges as citi- zens and to do it intelligently without prejudice and without distinction as to race. In so doing 1t found necessary that all Indian children become educated. An examination showed that hundreds of children in this Division were with out school facilities. Hundreds of others had facilities only through the third or fourth grades As a result a general demand was made that the Territory meet the situation and provide schools. An appeal was made to John Troy edi- tor of the Empire to give publicity to the we'll founded demand of our native citizens. Then it was that the studied discrimination of Mr. Troy and his friends was such that the Brotherhood had to enter the political field
 In deciding which side the vote of this organization should be placed two factors, and two only, were considered. First: The moral issue; Second: The economic issue. In deciding the first issue we found that there was a pOliti- cal ring composed of the attorneys of the large cannery and mine corporation who operated by and with the Juneau Empire, and who controlled the Democratic or Republican Federal Brigade for their common purpose, and that at all times Clleoe dCIO1HeyS W01c eHldISllS Ine pfOIlCS Ol foreign corporations at the expense of resident Alaskans. We found that Federal patronage was used to corrupt sufficient number of legis- lators in the House Senate as was necessary to secure control of these bodies; that this vici- Ous circle also used the public monies and the public press to accomplish their evil designs Consequently the Brotherhood has had to declare against these people who known as the ring and to support men of independence.
 On the economic question, the personal ex- 00f4b >o1:o ment of the fish trap in order that resident fish, ernen and small business men of this Territory might secure enough money to remain in the country. It is no secret that the Alaska Native Brotherhood is in politics, and that it is there to stay, with the avoWed purpose of driving from public positions and from positions of power those interests which are contaminating the pub-

CITY COUNCIL CONSIDERING
IMPROVEMENT, OF STREETS

The city dads are losing consider
able sleep over the rough condition
of the city's streets and the manner
in which they are going to improve
them. The streets are rough and In
poor condition, that is no secret, but
how to improve them without a great
deal of expense is the hard nut they
must crack.
in talking with the various owners
of the city, they hear almost univer-
sally that taxes are now a burden
and the expense of grading and re-
sraveling the streets would be great.
The streets need curbing and gravel
ing to insure smooth surface that
will be permanent, but the council are
prone to add this extra tax burden
TO the people at this time and are
trying to find some cheaper way to
improve them.
II someone has n feasible plan, the
members of the council will welcome
ii and If 1t can be carried out II will
help them and also improve the
streets Of Holyoke.
