WHISPERING CAMPAIGNS.

As the victim of a whispering campaign Gov. Smith is in good eompany-and successful com pany. In most of the campaigns where scandal mongers have sneaked throughout the country spreading poison for the purpose of destroying character and bringing about the defeat of those whom they would be afraid to meet in the open. the maligned have been successful For years attempted to destroy the standing of Thomas Jefferson through the whispering methods Athiest and infidel were among the mildest names he was called. It was charged that he was a demagogue and dishonest, that his promises were worthless, that he immoral and criminally bent. In New England the voters were told that his first enterprise if elected President would be to burn the bibles. It is said that in hundreds of cases, when his election was reported people buried their bibles-or otherwise hid them
 The whisperers said that Gen. Jackson was immoral; coarse, uncultured ruffian and mur- derer that he not decent CT fit company for clean-minded people, that he had no sense of the finer things;" that it would be a Ma tional disgrace to admit him to the White House
 It charged in whispers that Abraham Lincoln baek-woods clown, uncultured ignorant, dishonest; that he an egotistical country pumpkin, fool that was such fool that he did not know that he was a fool; that he coarse culgar and immoral; that he associated with the scum of his community; that he was an atheist who ridculed religion etc,

MORE SUTHERLAND IGNORANCE.

MT. Sutherland said in his speech Saturday night that Alaska has five times the any of the other Territories had when they given full Territorial form of government Minnesota Territory at one time had an area exceeding 100000 square miles and population of about 5000. Missouri Territory was larger, in- cluding Nebraska Kansas, the Dakotas and most of what is now Montana and Wyoming-an area approximating that of Alaska. Oregon Territory at time had more than 100000 square miles and Washington Territory more than 3OO,OOO Michigan and other Territories had similar areas
 None of them when organized had anything approaching the population wealth of Alaska They did not organize all their areas into coun- ties at once. It was not necessary. It would not be necessary for Alaska to do so.
 In of these cases did the acquisition of a full Territorial form of government retard growth. In every instance if accelerated it.
 Alaska collects enough money in the way of taxation to maintain full Territorial form of government. It collects lot more than Washington Territory and all the counties ir the Territory collected when the population of Washington much larger than that of Alaska
 It is silly to talk of having sef-government with a Territorial government with one Leg isature acting also Board of County Com missioners, sitting every two years for sixty days, the only board of control. It is worse than silly to say this condition can be changed b, passing a Controller Bill Until there are loca governments, such counties Alaska will hay, bureaucratic goyernment-Federal and Territor ia bureaus must do the work
 What Alaska needs is full Territorial form of government so the people might govern them selves.

CANADIAN RAILWAY DEVELOPMENT
 MAY BE HELPFUL TO ALASKA.

Word comes from the South that tentative arrangements have been made for the purchase of the Alberta railways, including the line that IS designed to tap the northern British Co., lumbia region, by the Canadian Pacific Railway Company and the Canadian National Railway lines. The offer Of the railway companies to purchase the properties contains pledge to con- tinue construction of lines to open up new areas as fast practicable. If the tentative agreement is ratified by the Dominion and Alberta governments the railways will become the joint property of the Canadian National and the Can adian Pacific
 It is believed that the consummation of the purchase will result in solving the Peace River connection with the Coast and Prince Rupert hopes that the new line will be constructed to that place. There is, also, considerable sentiment in favor of making Portland Canal at Stewart across the line from the Alaskan town of Hyder the Coast terminal. In either case development Of northern British Columbia unuuestionably will De stimulated, and growth either at Prince Rupert or on Portland Canal will be helpful to Alaska.

 So the character murderers who are out in the dark trying to destroy Gov. Smith are not a new variety of jackas. Their breed has long been known. And. like often the case in thel monial of his superior virtue. If he any part of what they charge he would be beaten without resort to whispering.
