A Dangerous Practice

IHTHl all this fuss over japanese exclusion
w Canada bars Jap laborers and not a words said.
Australia excludes them drastically. And ais serene.
Why is it then that, every SO often, we and Japan all
most come to blows over precisely the same issueF
The answer is that our statesmen are politicians first,
and statesmen afterward. if az all.
They must not be permitted, for the sake of gathering
a few votes in sections Of the country whore the real
menace Of a situation is not understood. TO grab such
problems as the Jap immigration and ride them into
office.
It's a dangerous praetice-for the politician and for
the nation.

LARGEST FOX FARM
 OF INTERIOR ALASKA
 STARTED HOT SPRINGS

T. A. Woolard, manager and care taker of the Phipps and Woolard fox farm near Hot Springs, arrived from the Interior Saturday and left on the Redondo for Seldovia where he will purchase the initial outlay of Alaska Blue foxes.
 MT. Woolard states that MT. Phipps who is an employe of the Alaska rail- road, and himself recently purchased the abandoned Milligan and Morrison fox farm near Hot Springs which was the largest farm ever built in the h. terior. The farm covers an area of five acres which is enclosed by a lawn fence. There are thirty large breed ing pens and thirty small ones, and all the necessary buildings and para phernalia required on a fox farm. The former owners, Milligan and Nor rison, realized heavily on their invest ment. They raised silver-gray foxes, a number of which were awarded priz- es in London exhibitions. They are now located on Prince Edward Island and are in the fox farming business on large scale, having a contract covering over one hundred thousand dollars for the raising of foxes.
 MT. Woolard was until recently, con- nected with the, Alaska Road Com- mission working at Mckinley Park.

FEDERAL PARTY OF
 FOURTH DIVISION IS
 BACK FROM JOURNEY

The Fourth Division Federal party, which has been up in the Lake Tetlin country for the past three weeks re- turned to Fairbanks last Saturday af- ternoon.
 They brought back word, says the Fairbanks News-Miner,, that Little Old John or Last Tetlin was fully jus tified in killing Dawson Luke. All the testimony at the inquest showed that this Dawson Luke was a bad In- dian. He had gotten into trouble in Canada and had come to Tetlin later escaping from the Canadian police. Last March he loaded two high-pow- cred guns, and after half-killing his wife, told he he was going to kill Chief Luke.
 After keeping the other Indians barricaded in their houses for four days he started for the chiefs house but was unable to get in. He was fin ally shot and killed by Little Old John. This happened on March 29th and ended the reign of terror of Lake Tetlin.
 Little Old John was tried by the h. dian Council in accordance with In- dian law and acquitted but the Chief felt that White Mans Law" should enter in so he sent word to Fairbanks of the crime and a party consisting of Special Attorney E. B. Collins, Deputy Marshal John Buckley, Dr. J. A. Suth- erland and Commissioner John Had ukovich made the long trip up to Last Tetlin that the authority of the law of the United States might be upheld
 They report that the Tetlin Indians are of very high type, primitive but not spoiled by having been in too close contact with the white man.
 While the party was at Last let lin, Council meeting was held with five chiefs of different tribes present Matters which the chiefs believed neeC ed the advice of the white men were discussed at this time.
 pr. J. A. Sutherland was kept busy during the trip giving medical atten tion to the natives at various stop; made along the way.

NUKA BAY DEVELOPING INTO GOOD CAMP; NEW
 LEAD, FOUND BY BURNAN AND CARLSON, RICH

The Nuka Bay District is showing up better all the time, according to John Kimball, who arrivel from that region this week with Gust Moe. They went over in May and gave the dis trict a pretty good overhauling, re- turning to Anchorage convinced that a good quartz camp is in the making there, according to an interview pub lished in the Daily Alaskan.
 Burman and Carlson have located a splendid looking lead on Iron creek, their location being about three miles from the property of the Alaska Hills Mining Company. The lead runs from three to ten feet thick and it has been uncovered for a distance of about one thousand feet. The rock resembles that of the Alaska Hills, but the val ues have not been ascertained as yet. The owners of the property are satis- fled that the values are there, how ever, and they are going ahead with their development work, confident that they have good thing. When Kimball and Moe left Nuka Bay, the locators o fthe Iron creek find were preparing to drive a tunnel into the mountain, to tap the ledge at depth of 100 feet.
 Work is progressing steadily at the Alaska Hills property. There are about ten men at work there, driving tunnel and getting the Ball mill ready for operation. When Kimball left it was believed that the lead would be encountered shortly in the tunnel
 The ore is to be moved to the mill by means of a cable tram about one thousand feet in length. The cable is on the ground and the work of putting it in place is in progress. By the time the mill is set up and ready to operate the tram probably will be ready to deliver ore from the lead and considerable grinding should be done by the end of the season.
 Frank Germain and Chris Lund- quist, oldtimers of that region, have moved to Mccarthy glacier, where they plan to spend several weeks pros pecting. The glacier is about fifteen miles from Nuka river, where the Al aska Hills is located.
 There are eight or nine outfits pros. pecting in the immediate vicinity o1 Nuka river.
 The weather was fine there during the early summer, Kimball said, but when he and Moe left on July 12, the

FISHER CAFE WILL BE BEST IN TERRITORY;
 OPEN AUGUST FIRST

AS far as can ascertain, this will be the largest restaurant in the Ter ,ritory of Alaska, Charles Fischer who is installing the new cafe and bakery in Seward, stated yesterday to a representative of the Seward Gate way.
 Continuing MT. Fisher said: "Fair- banks and Anchorage both have large and splendid restaurants and cafes but this restaurant we are now equipping here will, I am sure, be quite good deal larger both in size and in ap- pointment than any business of this nature now in operation in Alaska"
 In the line of all that is modern and, of the very best of food stuffs that money can buy, will go into the business. Never before in the history of the city has fixtures and equipment been selected with such care, to fit it's special needs, as has been done to date, in preparing for the opening date which, MT. Fisher said, he hoped would be August 1st. The business will be operated under the name of Fisher Cafe and Bakery
 Swarms of men have been working for days in the interior of the large room, which is 30 by 100 feet. As one enters the main door, to the right, stretching along the entire wall, the length of the building at least twenty tables, each large enough to seat four guests with ease, will be placed. About half way down this side of the cafe, the large banqueting room and dance floor will also be located.
 To the left the lunch counter, thirty six feet in length and with eighteen comfortable stool-chairs, will be plac- ed. A handsome back bar and buffet is partly in place at this time and is the acme of neatness and attractive ness. Then follows the pantry and in turn, the best of ranges installed in a commodious kitchen, which will de- light the eye and be the envy of the women patrons. The modern bakery, with the latest of Lang bake ovens, work tables and benches, is now be- ing installed in the basement. Here al so is found big store room for per- ishables and supplies, arrayed tier up- on tier around the walls. An air proof coal storage bin is located at one end of the basement, being so ar ranged that not a speck of dust will be possible to escape into the shop proper
 MT. Fisher says that at least eight people will be employed at the start. The tables which will be in the dining room, are being constructed by Cal M. Brosius, and are being made to har- monize and correspond with the res taurant's appointments.
 P. Peterson is foreman in charge of the interior carpentry work; Joe Burns is in charge of the electrical installations; Aron Erickson is doing a beautiful job of painting and deco rating, and Charles Lechner is install ling the plumbing and tinsmithing. Yesterday a large shipment of glass ware and chinaware arrived at the cafe and last evening the room fairly hummed with activity, unpacking the many articles purchased in the States by MT. Fisher.
 The opening day will be marked with a regular old-time house warm ing to which the citizens of the city and visitors will be invited. Success is predicted to this newest of local en- terprises which will reflect much cred it to the city of Seward.
