SOMETHING RADICALLY WRONG-A
 CHANGE NEEDED.

The very circumstance that the growth of Alaska has been slower than that of any other political division of the United States in it's pioneer days, and since shows that there is some thing radically wrong. As has been pointed out by The Empire, Washington Territory. with a full Territorial form of government, grew from a population of less than 1000 to 350,000 in thirty-sx years. Alaska has been American possession for sixty-one years and her population today does exceed 6O,O0O or 65.000. including the Indians. Sxty-one years after the first set tier located in Washington Territory the State of Washington had population of 0,000.
 Is it not time that Alaska did something about this? Is 1t not time that sent to Washington with vision. who knows some thing about the Territory and the ambitions and aspirations of the average man and woman2 One whos can think beyond the game of politics and winning the next election through buncome?
 MT. Sutherland has been our Delegate to Con gress for eight years. In that time he has done absolutely nothing to advance the material wei fare for the Territory. He has done not thing to make room for a single addition to he popua. tion. He has done nothing but to play personal politics.
 Everything suggests the need for a change The plain people of Alaska. those who hold nc office and want none, those who work for what they get, should not miss the chance next Tues day to vote for themselves and their own bes interest. They do that by casting their bal lots for Mir Grigsby for Delegate to Congress-

The Steese Highway.
(Alaska Weekly l


 At a recent meeting of the Board of Road newly completed highway from Fairbanks to Circle City be called The Steese Highway" This appeals to us well merited tribute to the man who originated the project and who during his long term of service accomplished a great deal for the Territory.
 The road opens up of the oldest of the placer districts of Alaska and will make it DOS sibe to work considerable area of ground which has lain idle due to the high cost of transpor- tation by the old circuitous route to Fairbanks via Nenana One may step into an auto mobile at Valdez or Chitna and drive over a req sonably good highway through to the Yukon and the entire Fortymi1e, Eagle and Circle City districts should at feel the impetus of inc better working and living conditions thus made possible. This is the type of highway that Alaska needs and a few more of them built into well known mineral districts would pay enormous dividends. In British Columbia when a miner who is actually attempting the deyeopment of q prospect needs road or trail he makes appica- tion to the Minister of Mines. A field engineer IS sent to inspect the property and repors in his chief his opinion as to whether the nrosnect Justifes the expenditure of public money If in his opinion it does the road trail or bridpe is shortly built. If it ever becomes nossibo to ,n terest our Government in the wealth nrodrcira possibilities of Alaska to an extent which ,,il, result in change in the present niegardly roaa appropriation policy some such practicahIa and ihtellgeht system may be evolved for Alaska iew million year to be spend by inc Road fCommlsslon working in conjunction with thc Bureau or Mines and the Geological Survey field men would work transformation in the annual mineral production of the Territory.

MAKE GRIGsBYs MAJORITY LARGE.

Word comes from Second Third and Fourth Division points that George B, Grgsby will carry all those Divisions for Delegate to Congress That puts the question up to the First Division If MT. Grigsby get substantial majority in the First Division his election is certain If he gets any sort of a majority here he will prob ably win. However, no chances should be taken His majority in Southeast Alaska ought to be made as large possible. It ought to be so large that none can question his right to speak for all the people of the Territory
 There has been a more important election in Alaska than the present one The people of this Division have a fortunate oppor- tunity to elect as Delegate to Congress who will give Alaska real representation in the National Legislature and before the departments at Washington-one who will represent the situa- tion it is, who will represent the desire of the men and women of this Territory to run their own affairs
 MT. Grigsby. if elected. will devote his fine talents his vigorous energy and his knowledge of the ropes at Washington to doing all within his power for the people rather than quarrel ing over patronage and personal politics.
 Mir. Grigsby is thoroughly familiar with the Territory of Alaska and the people who live in it. He is learned in the science of government, and he has personality and an alert and profound mind that will carry weight. He will get what he goes after And he proposes to go after full Territorial form of government for the people including control of the fisheries and game
 He will ask for the Legislature the right tc organize counties or similar local governmental units if the people desire it. Then it will be up to the people decide whenever they might wish to act
 The people should by all means. for the goot of the Territory and all parts of it. for the good of all the people workingmen, business men property owners and all who desire to continu, living in the Territory and prospering in it elect MT. Grigsby Delegate to Congress.

not because they not in agreement with the beliefs of The Empire, but because the author ship was unknown. The Empire would gladly print any reasonable and printable communica- ton on any subject of general interest, ire spective of the views expressed if the name of the author accompanied the article That does not mean that it would insist upon publishing the name of the writer. but knowledge of the author ship is required as evidence of good faith. However the writer of a communication for pub
 ieaton ought not to hesitate to permit the use of his name.
 This suggests another thing that all news papers have to contend with-and that is the men and women who want the paper to jump on this thing or that to advocate this or that, but by no means to let anyone know who suggested it. Don't quote me because it would hurt my business is often blandly used that it has become a stock joke in newspaper offices. One would think that business man, who would be afraid to ieopardize his profts would ask anyone else to assume the refused jeopardy, but it often is done And, further, when newspaper turns down of these cautious patriots the cautions patriot frequently accuses it of being cowardly being in business to make money.
 The signed communication and the adviser who offers to advance his ideas in an interview usually welcome in any editorial office.

TRUITT FOR ATTORNEY GENERAL.

James S. Truitt of Anchorage. Democratic nominee for Attorney-General, has been a perman- ent resident of Alaska for many years. He raised his family here and has Alaskan grandchildren. They also all residents of the Territory Every interest MT Truitt has is in the Territory.
 He has been practicing law at Anchorage since he retired from the office of Assistant United States Attorney at the conclusion of the Wilson Administration He is man of the highest character, good citizen in all the term implies.
 MT, Truitt is running for Attorney-General on constructive platform He believes the Attorney-Genera ought to be the legal adviser of the Legislature and other Territorial officers. He holds that it intended that the Attorney-General should be a lawmaker that he should formulate the Territorial administrative and legislative policies, but that he should work in harmony with the Legislature and Territorial officers as their attorney and legal adviser. His idea is that the relationship between him and the people should be that which exists between client and attorney. He does not believe. there fore, that the Attorney Generals office should be a center for political controversy and turmoil
 MT Truitt, if elected, would be an efficient Attorney-General, painstaking and capable.

SYMPATHY FOR AFFLICTED.

The sympathy of this entire community goes out to Mir Conn and his little son who were bereft of wife and mother in yesterdays tragic fire. It was a hard fate that took this young woman's life in the midst of health and happi- and promise Of usefulness before she had got well started the journey. It a hard fate that deprived the young father and little boy from the blessing that they had every right to expect to continue All that do now is to the afflicted man and little boy that their grief is sorrow and fervently to pray that fate may be generous with them in the future.
