FOSTER, CANDIDATE ATTORNEY GENERAL.
 OPPOSED FEDERALS
BELIEVES CONSERVATION IN TERRITORY BEEN GREATLY
 OVERWORKED

OVEKWORhED
 
 The following is copy of Frank H. Fosters platform. He is a candidate for the office of Attor- ney General of Alaska:
 Juneau, Alaska,
 March 26, 1882. T am a candidate for the office of Attorney General of the Terri tory of Alaska, subject to the Will of the voters as expressed at the Primary Election, April 26, 1882, and as such, respectfully solicit your support:
 "I have been a resident of the Territory of Alaska for 21 years, am married and have five children, all raised in Alaska. Whatever l have of the worlds gear, which isn't much, is invested in this Ter ritory. I have been a practicing attorney for 26 years, have held the office of United States District Attorney and during three sessions have been a member of the Terri torial Legislature. I expect to re- main here for the rest of my days, and to do my utmost in the future as I have in the past, for the up- building of the Territory.
 T am utterly opposed to Federal or any interference in Territorial affairs. I believe that the conser- vation principle has been over worked in Alaska to the extent that most of our Territorial resources have become the playthings ot Federal bureaucrats. believe that there will be no lasting prosperity for the Territory until the chains binding us to the Federal bureaus are severed. I am utterly opposed to the brand of conservation which was foisted upon us by Clifford Pin chot and others of his ilk
 T favor the encouragement of Alaska labor, the employment of Alaskans and citizens of the Unit ed States in all public and private works. I believe that all Alaska appointees should be chosen from bona fide resident Alaskans.
 T believe in the equality of priv ilege and opportunity for all AL askans whether white or native.
 Tt is my opinion that the game, fish and fur-bearers of this Terri tory are the heritage of the people resident herein and should be so administered as to give resident AL askans first opportunity to put same to beneficial use. I am op- posed to game laws or regulations which deny to our people the right to take a reasonable toll of such resources.
 T do not believe in the leasing system as applied to coal, oil or fur farming lands. It is my opin- lOll llldU Ullt I1OlllSSUcdO laws S1lOulu not be hampered by the red tape of forestry regulations. know that if Alaska were placed under the same conditions as existed at the time of the opening up of the Great West, we, too, would develop and prosper in the same manner as the States have.
 If chosen Attorney General, I pledge myself to administer that office fairly and impartially, giving to all the same degree of justice and honest dealing without dis elimination as to race or condition. "If these principles appeal to you, please place a cross before my name at the Primary Election.
 Yours very truly,
 FRANK H. FOSTER"

SCHOOLHOUSEAT J UNALAKLEET IS RAzED BY FIRE
Federal School Building En- tirely Destroyed-Seek
 Funds to Replace

Fire Friday destroyed the Gov ernment school house at Unala- kleet and leaves that community without school at least tempor- arily. it was announced today by Charles w. Hawkesworth, Acting Chief of the Alaska Branch of the Office of Indian Affairs. School .ecords were saved from the flames but everything else was lost.
 The building was a two-room structure. The school had an en- rollment of 56 pupils with Everett L. Medley as teacher in charge.
 The fire originated either from an overheated stovepipe or a de- fective flue, it was said. No other suitable building is available for re- onening the school, and plans for resumption are being held in abey- ance.
 Funds will be sought from Con- qress to erect a new building. This, however could not be done before nex tsummer as it would not be possible to ship and land materials there before navigation opens.

STARVATION OF DEER IN SOUTH
 NOT IMMINENT

There is no reason for any pres ent alarm about the deer herds from the Wrangell Narrows district south, according to E. M. Goddard, who conferred with Game Warder5 at Wrangel enroute here from Se- attle, and with President w. R. Selfridge at Ketchikan.
 Rain and warm winds have car- ried away the heavy snow that covered the forage for few days, and feed is now abundant. How ever, a supply of hay has been landed at Wrangell and Petersburg and some brought here for emer- gencies that may develop before the end of winter.
 Warden Frank Dufresne is now surveying the northern district, covering Rocky Pass, Admiralty Baranof and Chichagof Island re- gions. He will return here about next Tueseday and, if he discovers feeding is necessary, supplies will be taken to threatened districts
