Washington News Letter
By Will A. Steel

eve of adjournment until the
 December session, and having
 made all necessary arrangement:
 to protect Alaska interests, Dele
 gate James Wickersham, accom-
 panied by Mrs. Wickersham, i;
 on his way to Puget Sound. After
 a few days in Seattle they vii
 sail for Alaska, to their home ir
 Juneau, from which location the
 Delegate will make visitations to the various sections of the
 Territory. He will consult with
 his constituents as to their sev- eral needs and at the same time
 will give an account of his stew
 ardShip during the past session
 and explain the efforts put forth
 to improve the condition of Alas
 ka and it's peoples. The Dele
 gates office in Washington
 with Secretary Steel in charge
 will remain open at all times
 and matters concerning Alaskan
 interests before various depart
 ments will be given close and
 active attention.
 Several more of Alaska Cham
 bers of Commerce have wired
 the Delegate that they are op- posed to the bill transferring the Alaska Road Commission and it's activities from the War Depart ment to the Interior Department Some of them want the road work appropriation administered under the proposed Public Works bill.
 After a preliminary survey had been made of Craig harbor the Board of Engineers for Rivers and Harbors states that the benefits expected to result from the proposed improvement are almost entirely local in charac- ter and are not sufficiently gen. e:1l tO justify the .lrcrove- ment at the expense of the Unit cd States. The report on the sur vey was favorable to the extent Of recommending improvement q Craig harbor by the construc- ton of a breakWater about 32O feet in length, and boat basin about 200 feet wide, 40 feet long and II feet deep at mean lower low water, with an entrance channel 60 feet in width, at a cost of $46,600 for new work and $500 per annum for mainten- ance.
 The bill to suspend the annual assessment work on mining claims for the year ending June 30, 1882, was particularly urged by the Representatives from California, Arizona and other sta tes, but included in it's operation. Since the Act was signed by the President on June 4, various telegrams have been received by the Dele gate from Alaska operators, prospectors and Chambers of Commerce. Some complain that the Act will be of little benefit because most of the work has been done for the year ending June 30th, 1882, and asking whether it cannot be made to apply for the year ending June 30, 1883. Others object to the of the Act because it : nay deny many prospectors and miners from securing work from arge holders who have been ac- ,ustomed to employ them in do- ng the annual assessment work. A similar bill may come before Congress next December a,17l1

 The effort of the Delegate to secure a grazing lease for cer- tain unsurveyed lands in interior Alaska, has brought forth Il statement from the Commission CT of the General Land Office that the land embraced in this particular application was locat- ed on the natural migration
 route of wild caribou in that part of the Territory, which is also tn cir natural grazing ground. It seems that the regu-
 lations under the Act of March 4, 1927, provide that leases will not be granted for areas which embrace the natural grazing grounds or routes of migration of wild animals such as caribou. A as a.

As to the Blindness
 OF the Politicians
Editor, The Alaskan.

it not seem strange to you that cur present leaders, or would be
 leaders, those already in posi- tionS to extend relief and en-
 couragement-o politicians,
 office holders and most of our
 editors-can be so callous as to
 devote so much time talking
 about and use up SO much good
 clean paper printing arguments about that old, stinking, polite
 al red herring-p prohibition
 The question as to whether we shall be privileged to pander
 to our groSser capacities, on our
 front porches, or must continue to do so in the cellar has surely, been a wonderful smudge screen for our politicians. Of one thing
 we may rest assured: When the question is finally settled, one
 way or the other-which of course it never will be more than
 temporarily if our modern meth cd politicians can help it-these same politicians will mourn it as a lost brother and shudder in horror at the death of harmless political issues.
 AS I write this, the six Alaska
 delegates to the Democratic Ma
 tional Convention-John Troy
 are speeding across the contin-
 ent to urge the adoption of a plank by the Democrats, favoring
 la referendum on repeal of the
 Eighteenth Amendment and also
 immediate repeal of the Volstad Act. What a relief it is going to
 be, two or three years from now,
 to be able to get, legally OWL eyed drunk and forget our empty bellies. It is all right to be a wet now, we are assured by the Juneau Empire: John D. Rocke- feller IT,, has turned wet, that settles it. It would for the Elm pire.
 Are the majority of our Alas ka politicians and editors blind to the crying need of Alaska, or is it that they lack the moral courage to tackle an uphill fight? We are being promised the appointment of bona fde Alaskans to office by one party; that should whip the sycophants into line. We are being fed the rlatitude of home rule by the other party. Home rule has it's parts however. The only thing I have never been able to under stand about home rule for Alas ka at present, is who, in the name of common sense, is going to foot the bill. It might, how ever, be poetic justice to acquire home rule and then hop the tax on salmon, our largest revenue producer, to a dollar a case, 70 foot the bill. Of course if the Forest Department could be in duced to pay taxes on the timber land they are holding for the timber barons, they might in-, duce Alaskans not to levy too l heavy a production tax on pulp | some day. This tax question has ts possibilities you know. Some lay in the not far distance fu- ;ure it is going to demand a practical answer.
 When it all simmers down to lctualities; all that is being lone in Alaska to relieve the economic situation, either poli- acally or editorially, except in a 'ery few cases, may be summed ID in one word; piff1e! What are he people of Alaska going to do bout it? The Territorial legisla- ure, even if they could agree as o method, has not the power to 10 more than start litigation The Federal brigade may be de- 'ended upon to start smoke1 creens and sit on the lid up to

A BArTLER WHEN MEAN

Sharkey was in the same mood when he ripped into Harry Wills, weeping in his rage, one night long ago at Ebbets Field, to wipe out the Black Menace and estab- fish himself as the best of the young American heavyweights.
 He talked himself into a ner- vous uproar before the great chance against Jack Dempsey five years ago, when he fought the greatest fight of his career, although Demp- sey finally nailed him in the sev- enth.
 But he bombastry went out of him shortly thereafter when poor management dictated that he should cease his orations and be- come a more staid citizen Clamp ing Sharkey's jaws clamped his fists as well. He was dispirited, futile wonderer. in the limitations that developed Tom Heeney as Gene Tunney's final ring foe in 1928.

If you wish to take the condi- ton of Jack Sharkey's nervous sys- tenn as. barometer of forthcom- ing events (and there is no extra charge for so doing), the indica- tions are the temperamental tar will nudge Max Schmeling right out of the heavyweight champion ship on June IS or whereabouts.
 When the big jackpot from Bos- ton is mean and irritable, snarl- ing at his surroundings, and ev- eryona within reach, that's the big sign that he's ready to fight When he lackada,sically sits around and takes it for granted he's go- ing to win, without caring much either way, then the signs are ur for another clean miss.
 Sharkey was as full of growls as playful bull terrier on his first visit to the excavation or Long Island the Garden insists will be stadium seating 80,00C by the time the Cob and the Ger man face off for their second heavyweight title match.
 He almost hit Jimmy Johnston He refused even to talk to Bill Carey, master of all the Garden surveys, because Bill had failed to give him all the choice seats he wanted. With the typical Shar- key snarl running all over his flea lures, the fighter announced pub- licly:
 1. That the stadium would be financial flop.
 2. That the stadium would not be ready.
 3. That he didn't give a hoot if he fought Schmeling some dark night in a field somewhere.
 4. That he'd smack Schmeling SO hard and so quickly above the tonsils this time that there'd be no question of the winner.
