At d recent meeting of the San Francisco Cha mber pf Commerce. there was a discussion as to the .c nsolidation of the Second and Fourth Judicial Divisions of Alas ka The Nome repr sentative to that meeting reports that the San Francisco Chamber went on record to their congr essmen in Washing ,ton as recommending that the sishes of the Northw extern Alas ka Cha mber of Commerce receive e due considera tion.
 It is interest ng to note that at this meeting a teleg ram was pre- sented from Ernest Walker Saw yer. in which he expressed him self as favoring the consolidation of the two Judicial Divisions.
 Alaskans are unfortunate in be- ing hindered in the management of their own affairs by the inter ference of so many Department and Bureau men The citizenry of the Second and Fourth Divisions is not credited with sufficient in- terligence to know what is best. either for individuals or for the welfare of the Territory. We cer- tainly should not have any self appointed meddlers from the De pant ment of the Interior concern ing themselves with matters that belong to the Judiciarv Depart m ent and to the people of Alaska.

WHITE ROVER, A REINDEER
 PRODUCT

W- had the pleasure of seeins some very clever adyer ising which the Alaska Livestock and Pack ing Company, subsidiary Of the Lomen Reindeer Corporation has been geJting out in connection with their White Rover dog food. It ia to be regretted that tn" Fair has no samples of this new reindeer product which is being ma nufactured by them iu Seat tie
 If our readers were asked to name the three leading products in the canned goods line, we doubt if many would knew that can ned dog foods now rank third. with milk first and soups sec ond. The market for dog food is tremendous. and the Alaska Live stock and Packing Company, be- lievins it has d superior article hoprs eventually tn lead in can ned dog foods
 White Rover k the result of d most careful %tiEation and is a scientifically bs,lanced ration containing reindeer meat. liver barley. bran. carrots and tlogr. 1t is packed in a plant having United States Federal Inspection and is guaranteed Fit for Human Consu mpt ion. It is fully cooked and ready to be served Chemists have pronounced il first in oual- ity among dog foods on the mar ket at the present time.
 It is gratifying tp know that White Rover, although introduced but a short time ago. has alread taken its place a. the leading b:ard on the Pacific Coast. It has also been introduced into the Middle West. and into the eastern states. where it is sold under the trade name of "Vita-Gaines'
 Some of the appeal which it has made to dog owners may pos sibly be credited tp the fact that il is a great Satistact ion to a man to know that he is feeding a food 10 his dog which he himself could eat. All distributors are enthuSia- ln rFNI-, i it's success has been little short of phenomenal.
 Over 10000 cases have been sold in the past few months. a very satisfac ctory record for pro duct just making its entry into the field
 White Rover will do much for the reindeer industry by permit ting only the choicest reindeer cuts to be sold over the block. and reserving the cheaper cuts to b" used in building up balanced ration for dogs and foxes. With the money and energy that are be ing expended by the Alaska Live stock and Packing Company for the industry in Alaska. it seems certain that satisfactory market will be found for reindeer meat in the States. The industry will then come into its own. and will easily attain first position in i'm portance to Nort hw estern Alaska.

Protest to Dept. of Labor and Congressman

Simon Swanson, whom the I'm
migration authorities, under the
direction of Deportation Doak,
head of the Department of Labor,
have been holding for three weeks,
was released on bonds February 6.
He was only released after his at
torney protested against the at
tempt being made to hold him in
jail by finding fault with his
bondsmen. The bonds which were
offered and with which the I'M
migration authorities tried to find
fault were the best that can be
found in the entire county.
This does not mean that Com
rade Swanson is free. We must
redouble the protests against the
attempt to deport him. We must
demand his immediate release

We call on all farmers organiza

Workers! Rally TO Defense of the
Chinese T0ilersl
This is an open and sinister
threat against the revolutionary
Chinese workers and peasants
and their Chinese Soviet Repub-
lie and Red Army.
The war against the Chinese
masses is on. The mOnstrOus
prOvOcatiOns against the Soviet
Union are daily increasing. The
Japanese have seized Hardin
and have violated the neutrali-
ty of the Chinese Eastern Rail-
way. A Japanese army is adj
vancing toward the Siberian
border of the Soviet Union. The
White Guards are being mobiIiz-
ed in Manchuria, in Poland,
Czechoslovalia and other cOun-
tries bordering the Soviet I'm
ion.
The working class must rally
to the defense of the Soviet
Union, to the defense of the
Chinese Revolution, by energet-
ically carrying on the fight a
gainst their own imperialists,
the fight against starvation and
wage cuts, against lynching and
national oppression of the Ne
gro masses, for unemployment
