I concede that there is an army of Government en- ployees in Alaska, and I can conceive of no better method of relieving that situation and relieving the Government of the cost of maintaining them than to place the power with the people of the Territory where 1t belongs, the power particularly to regulate its fish, to regulate its game, pow CTS that were given to every other Territory that has come Tn with our lifetime All that Alaska has ever asked for IS autonomous power to handle its own problems, and If that IS given we will be very glad to relieve Congress of the res possibility of maintaining this horde of employees Tn that Ter ritory, which has so much agitated the mind of the gent 1en1an from Massachusetts" =

CONCERNING TAXES

April 3, 1926, Chamber of Commerce,
 Ketchikan, Alaska.
 Gentlemen; I have noticed your resolution asking that candidates for the Legislature declare themselves in favor of reduced taxation and to oppose the waste Of the pubic ~22rcy.
 You of course realize that the Legislature must raise suf- hcient money to pay for tlle Territory's expenses. If that item of expense is not increas- ed, the legislature will pro- bably leave the tax rate as it is. If the appropriations are reduced, the tax rate can be reduced. I take it that you favor the reduction.
 As a body of business men who studied this question, you should declare yourselves cour- ageously and indicate what appropriation or territorial activity you wish reduced Or eliminated. If you are not willing to do that, then you have no right to ask any can didate to answer your ques- tions,

Merchant Marine Act Retards


 vents Alaska from progressing, MT. Sutherland said was direct ly due to an act of Congress, to-wit, Section 27 of the Mer- chant Marine Act. Congress should have labeled this sec tion An Act to prevent com petition with the Alaska Steam ship Company or with the Pacific Steamship Company in the service of Alaska It is very peculiar that Congress should pass laws that operate directly in increasing the diff faculties and expenses of the pioneers in Alaska and then have the nerve to be surprised because Alaska does not grow.
 Under Section 27 of what is known as the Jones Act" that freight can start from Chicago and cross the contin- ent to Vancouver on the Can adian railroad at a lower freight rate, be placed on a boat south for a Puget Sound port, but the same article cannot be plac- ed on a boat north for Alaska. So that one territory, with it's declining population, which was so mournfully spoken of here today, is discriminated against and is the only section of the United States that does have that discrimination in transpor- tation. This is matter that Congress can easily remedy"
 MT. Sutherland then advocat- ed a more liberal policy in the leasing of oil wells, consider ing the vast amounts of money already spent in the attempts to find oil.
 The delegate next spoke of d matter to which MT. Treadway had referred, the forests of AL aska. A great part of the trees are now overripe and falling and they should be made avail able for the manufacture of pulp. It is possible for Con- gross to tighten the restric- tions placed upon such enter prises by the Department of Agriculture.

 Is there anything in the ap- propriation of the secretary's office that you would reduce? and thus reduce his total from $2O,0OO, to something less?
 Would you reduce the ap- priation of the Treasurer's of- flee which amounts to $43,15O in the face of the fact that the present incumbent claims that he needs MORE help.

splendid number was the reading
when Forget to Say Ny Prayers
and a very graceful interpretive
dance by Miss Alma Temple. Miss
Mary Maddocks appeared in delight
full Spanish dance. She wore Span
ish costume. Music for the dances
and for general dancing which fol-
lowed was furnished by Mrs Temple
at the piano. Several interesting

Up stairs in the assembly hall they

the promise that whatever money
they retrieved from the bottom of the

The annual college classic Of the
Maine State series will he played at
Brunswick Saturday, and according
to all the dope it should be a nice
battle. In her first game against
Bates, Maine showed all kinds of
power and won handily by a score of
1870. while Bowdoin only beat Bates
1871, but at the same time Colby,
beaten 21-4 by Bowdoin held Maine
to a 10 count Saturday. The game
at Brunswick next week end should
not only be one of the best seen in
years, but should also draw a record
crowd. judged by the interest shown
in this section.
Another little classic which will be
shown Saturday will be the annual
Cony- Gardiner battle and this should
also be tough battle. Due to her
win Saturday while Cony was losing
to Deeriug, Gardiner will be a top
heavy favorite to win Saturday. Cony
