WHAT IS MASS VOTING

In editorial of the Juneau paper, the Indians informed that it will appeal to the white people to vote white people until such time the Indian learns to vote as unit and not a race.
 When will that time come, and how will we know that it has come? e?Suppose for instance in the next election the Indians should all vote for the candidates of the Juneau Empire, what then? Will the Empire tell the world that Alaska is going to the dogs? Or will the Empire immediately join the Republican party and oppose candidates supported by Indians?
 The public will not be fooled It is not the mass voting of the Indians that the Empire objects to- It is merely because the mass is not on the side of the Empire

at once say that we are reasonable" and "show the right attitude" toward capital.
 This cannot be done. The fishing industry must be governed for the benefit of the future generations of Alaska's citizens. Two things must be considered; the continuation of the cannery system, this being essential to turn fisheries into money; then the preservation of fish AND population. This last cannot be considered separately

 directed toward that end, if they were given the slightest reason to believe that they were recognized by Alaskans as of importance to the economic life of the Territory and entitled to fair treatment.
 Tn chance discussion of this matter yester" day with well-known packer, he said, Well I suppose this decision (wherein the Supreme Court of the United States ruled that graduated tax imposed by the Territory was within the power of A1aska) will be accepted in Alaska as permission to tax us out of existence" This editorial expression of the Seattle Weekly and quotation from the 'we11-known' cannery- man is the basest libel on the Alaska people. It is without the slightest foundation of fact to stand on. We challenge that paper or any one else to cite a single example where capital of any kind has been treated unfairly.
 The trouble with the cannerymen indeed with capital in Alaska generally, is this; they want the right to say just how they shall be treated Tn every instance, this means that they shall not be taxed at all nearly It has also meant that they to be permitted to operate regardless of the future. In salmon, it has meant that these cannery superintendents have personally sent their fishermen into the creeks in utter disregard of the law; in other cases, these same cannerymen have purchased unlaWtully caught fish knowing them to be so caught; in other these canneryrnen have directed their trapmen to fish the traps when it was unlawful to do; in other cases, these cannerymen have constructed traps in unlawful places or in such way that the traps could be operated unlawfully; in other cases, these same "'vell-known" cannerymen have knowingly canned putrid fish, And because we A1askans protest against these conditions, we are branded as being "antl-CaDlta1"
 There is doubt in our minds but that territorial control of our fisheries is the only right solution of the fish question. It is also the ultimate solution. It will come because it is right.
 But territorial control also means that the fish traps will be abolished. It will be because it. must be: It is recognized by every practical fisherman the sole and direct cause of the depletiof of OUT salmon streams That is what

CAN KETCHIKAN BECOME 4 JOBBING


 Behind all the propaganda to "patronize the home merchant" is the desire to build up our communities. This is right. But in order to do that, must have the statesman-like CO., operation of the local merchant himself. He must make it possible for citizens of the town and nearby towns to trade with him, or those who advocate "trading at home" will convict themselves of being tools of the rich.
 We have in mind how not to conduct business If we would make jobbing center of Ketchikan. The same rule is true for other places like Juneau, Anchorage and Fairbanks.
 friend of ours sent in an order for spool of Crochet Thread to a Ketchikan merchant. In due course, the thread came, an imported make, priced at fifty cents The neighbors then laughed at the purchaser and said: "Why we never buy at Ketchikan. When we have to send away, send to Sears, Roebuck. You can get three spools of thread as good as that from them for twenty-seven cents."
 Conditions in Ketchikan cannot be right when staple articles of food cost from five to ten cents more per unit here than in Juneau, 25O miles further from the buying point

Hunter, if both score anticipated triumphs today.
 Maurice Terrier was another foreign player who had his hands full. Erdmann Brandt of New York put up stubborn fight against the Swiss star, carrying the second set to 14 games before the match was decided, 6-3.
