MESSENGERS OF GOOD WIL7.

During the past few days were in our midst a group of repre- : sentative Salvation Army mem Ders of Alaska and their officers. They came with words of cheer, guidance and blessing-not only to the Indian members and non- members of the community. And there is no question but that an immeasurable lot of good has come of and through this con- gress, if only from the fact that as hosts to the congress, the citi- zens expended every effort to in sure the comfort, care and pleasure of the visitors.

 After two thousands oe years the message of the Christ re- mains as a gift to man 5naI is of ( benefit to him. How long will the message of hate arou>tc, ny the fury of a war now dead II years last, What good all the Geneva conferences and other hates of sick and demoralized civilization?

/. Hate never profits anybody.
 Friends like books should be few and well chosen.

If such men as Senators La Toilette, Wheeler, Norris, B0rah and others confronting the ma cine and invisible government, are radicals, then Jefferson and others of Declaration of Inde- pendence fame were radicals.
 It has come to pass in Ameri- can political history that when patriotic men, with interest of American government solely at heart, whose political action exposes and checks grating con- splracies against the government and insist that the government is not for the few, by the few and of the 1eW, are held in contempt and sneered and scOfed at.

 The Alaskan Way

The Indian of Alaska so far has asked no favor of the gov ernment. Their hunting grounds are but pleasant memories; their fishing streams closed to them and they are made criminals by a legalized system of blackmail indulged in by and between the United States Department of Justice and the United States Bureau of Fisheries.
 Instead of selflshly working only for the interests of the h. dian, the Alaska Native Brother hood has sought to secure legiS-
 ation for and regulation of our fisheries of general application. The time may come when the Indian through his organiza- lion will say, "the United States officials of Alaska are a bunch of legalized crooks who broWbeat and threaten poor fishermen to plead guilty to charges of illegal fishing and force him to plead guilty to the charge when inno- cent" Nor will there be inc bit of exaggeration to the charge IS will be attested by virtually every member of the law fra ternity in Alaska.

A SAD COMMENTARY

A SAD CONlN1EI< All
 In sharp contrast to the time less than 20 years ago, when king salmon swam by the mill lions in the waters around Ket- chikan and were believed of no commercial value, may be seen in the market today when one fish of mild cure size is worth from five to $15.--Ketchikan Chronicle.
 Twenty years ago the fisher man received seventy-five cents for mild cure salmon, regardless of how large it might be; he re- ceived twenty-five cents for the rel salmon under mild cure size unless it was tco small; he had nc sale whatsoever for white king salmon if the buyer thought he could load up only on the reds.
 Cause of Depletion
 The United States Bureau of Fisheries under MT. Bower, MT Ernest Walker and MT. O'Malley are to be blamed for this Situa- ton. Their defense of the trap system and the unrestricted de- struction of herring for fertiliz- CT and it's wanton destruction ot all salmon life is the cause of the present depletion.
 It is true enough that the fishing by trollers has become more intensive but not sufi- ciently intensive to have caused such havoc as has been wrought under the protection of the Bu- leau of Fisheries and it's inefi- cient personnel.
 How It Is Done
 Traps are no respectors of the
 Thousands upon thousands of young king salmon are caught in traps and thrown overheard as unfit for food purposes, they being too small to handle at profit to the canners. Many more thousands of king salmon are caught in traps and, being most sensitive to bad handling, soon becomes unfit for mild core or any high grade pack so they go into the cans as dogs" No record of the catch of this specie is made or kept by the bureau of frauds Rather they raise the smoke that the fisher men are destroying the king salmon fishery and regulate them out of business while they protect the real ravagers of the industry.
 The Herring Fishermen
 Fishermen have observed the operations of the herring oper- atorS who come into our midst for a few short months, milk the territory of it's riches and return to the states to build up communities at the expense of the territory. These men dur ing the past summer caught thousands of young king sal mon which went into the reduc- tion plans and came out as oil and fertilizer. The larger or,I saleable salmon went to the buy CTS on occasion. These facts, are incontrovertable. For the bureau of frauds (fisheries) to attempt so to do would only be- tray their ignorance.
 But for all of which Alaska and it's residents pay in decreas- ing population and heavier civic obligations.
