HOPEFUL SIGNS OF PROGRESS

The attitude of the Southeastern Alaska press in go ing at the root of the Teitorys lehargy namely too much government and too little efficiency, is hopeful sign that the Territory whole is awakening and that it is ncubang unity of purpose capable of shaking off the obstacles now impeding progress.
 It will be recalled that for five years The Gateway has been hammerng away at the root of Alaskan troubles but somehow many of these who see the light have left us to fight alone.
 With the press synchronizing given policy such as lifting the blight of too tense conservation and over government by theorists, ray of hope breaks that the voice of Alaska will be heard in Washington.
 Aside from it's irritation, iron-bound conservation and governmental medding in what should be purely Alaskan affairs is at the bottom of general shyness of Alaskan investments. Once the tension is relaxed and capital offered an opportunity to enter Alaska unham pered by political interference, there is denying that great forward movement will begin.
 In it's stand against the pernivous system the Gate way has not stood alone with impractical idea From every walk of business life in the continental United States has condemnation of governmental intrusion into business and over-govennent There is not State which has not felt the elects of this usurpation of pre- negatives of the individual and loud has been the protest That this protest will bear fruit from new Congress is altogether probable Thus Alaska will be in good and strong company it be unified into bold front pre- pared to wage good battle for it's rights.

JITNEY GOLD MINING

One of the effects of the depression in the Western States has been to send thousands of into the hills to pan gold from streams made historical in the days when the man who could not discover the yellow metal had nothing to spend.
 So great has become the trek to the hills that Mon- tana is issuing bulletins for the novice nstructing him in search, banning rocking and slucing.
 Many of those in California are taking from two to ten dollars day from the old streams living in their own little cabins like the forty miners and laughing at the de- pression.
 No better advice could be given the newcomer to Alaska than that he take supply of grub and go the regions like Hope Sunrise and Moose Pass and there join up with oldtmers who have snping ground from which living can be taken with the sucebox And this does not apply solely to the newcomer Many young men sit ting around wondering when job will show up might be Independent by emuating the newcomer and getting in and digging.

10 All IOllerS:
The strike of $4,000 workers is the largest
strike of agricultural workers since the
World War and the first big struggle of the
Colorado beet workers. 1t is heroic strug
gle, in the face of great odds.
The Great Western Sugar Co. and other
large sugar interests, who dictate to the
farmers, are trying to keep the beet work
ers in conditions of actual slavery, forced
labor, starvation wages and use every form
of persecution and discrimination.
This year they are trying to further re-
duce a starvation wage by cutting it nearly
one-haf. In addition, the beet workers who
toll long hours with their whole families,
wives and children to earn even a piece of
bread are often not paid for work done, and
are forced at company stores which rob them.
The overwhelming majority of the workers
are Mexicans, and are threatened with jail
and deportation unless they accept whatever
conditions are offered by the sugar kings.
This strike can be won. The whole crop
in the Colorado fields may be lost if the
workers are not back in the fields shortly.
This has great advantages for the strikers.

BEET STRIKE
WINS FIRST
VICTORIES
Several Farmers Offer
Guarantee; Rush
Food At Once
BULLETIN

DENVER, Colo, May 26.-The
United Front Relief Committee for
the beet workers strike and the
Workers International Relief have
new address now. The new ad-
dress is 1854 Eleventh st. Mail
can also be sent to Post Office Box
1923. The Relief office is moved
from the old address ON Lawrence
Street.
DENVER, Colo, May 26.-The
strike of 1900 beet workers is solid
in the southern counties. and is still
on the upgrade in the northern
fields.
In Fort Morgan several farmers
have already signed guarantee of
wages at least equal to those of last
year, and have deposited the check
for the seasons wage in the bank,
the worker to draw on it as he earns
the money. This means winning of
two demands, the guarantee, and the
demand for cash payment instead of
payment in credit on the grocery
store. The effect of this initial vic
tory is very great. The strikers see
they can win.
The United Front Strike Commit
tee has declared the second demand
guarantee of pay to be the main
demand now. The first demand is
for $23 an acre.
Organizers Sanchez and Charles
Guynn have returned from a trip
through the northern beet fields Of
Colorado. They report the situation
favorable, and general tightening
up of the organizational side of the
strike activity. Local strike COM
mittees, local relief and defense COM
mittees are being formed and
brought into activity. Section head
quarters are being set up.
The strikers are full of deternnin-
alton and willingness to fight The
strike will continue to grow, if even
some relief can be sent in. Two
truckloads of food through the W.
I. R. have greatly encouraged them,
but dozens of colonies have had no
food yet. Tents are also decisive.
Wherever workers are still in the
fields, it is because they are facing
eviction and see no place to get shell
ter. The colonies are already packed
with evicted families, doubling up
with those who still have homes. In
Greedy, colony ordinarily number
ing $50 now has $50 in it. Sixteen
more families face eviction there
today. Four families are living in
one room.
