of such properties as the Alaska Juneau stands squarely between the employees and the stockholders He must be fair to both. And T think you can rely on Metzgar to do that"
 He also emphasized that there are three parties interested in questions involving the local con- pany. There are primarily the em- ployees and the stockholders. But the third party is the community and it's business houses. If the stockholders are dissatisfied with the showings they can sell their stock. Dissatisfied workers can quit and go elsewhere for employment. The community is here and must abide by whatever conditions the other two factors produce.
 Recalls November Talk
 MT. Bradley recalled his talk be- fore the Chamber last November at which time, he said, T tried to give you some of the ideas ex- pressed on the outside as to the effect and ideas of the MIRA. In some quarters this was interpreted as my own ideas. Since then you all have seen the newspapers, so I do not have to say anything new about the MIRA.
 His own ideas of it were given in an interview to the local news paper day or two later when he said if the MIRA came to Alaska, the Alaska Juneau would accept it graciously and willingly and abide by it's provisions, but it must come in an orderly manner.

dustry is not discouraging since the release of the Bristol Bay can nery fleet, declared Lemuel G. Wingard, Alaska Agent of the Bu- reau of Fisheries, who returned here recently from a brief trip as far west as Bristol Bay. The long shoremen's strike has not affected the industry as much as it was feared it would. Nineteen out of 25 plants in Bristol Bay are ready to operate and with the release of the shipping the pack there ought to be normal
 Cook Inlet packers with the ex- ception of two small plants which had no cans were also prepared Fishermen from those two places will be absorbed by the other pack CTS so there will be no loss.
 Alaska Peninsula plants were al- so reported ready. They are look ing forward to good packs. Some floating plants will be late getting there but they will have a normal season.
 In Southeast Alaska, where the great damage has been done, sal mon trollers and other fishermen have been hurt by the closing of markets for fresh fish. Packing here has not yet been affected and before the opening of the season, it is expectd several vssels will be released from the tieup, MT. Win gard said.
 Finds Extensive Paystreak
 Fairbanks is almost as good to- day as it was in the heyday of it's history as bonanza placer camp, declared Judge James Wickersham, who returned recently from a visit there. In it's development work on Ester Creek, the Fairbanks Explor- ation Company, which has taken over most of the old claims, found wider spread of gold than was ever shown in the original workings and which may extend into adjoining creeks. Conditions in that district, he declared, are very good. Prospects are bright for a renew al of the Capitol-to- Capitol Cruis- CT Yacht Race in 1885, the Cham Der was informed in a letter from J. l.. Patcon, President of the Pu- get Sound Power Boat Racing As sociation. The matter, he added, will be taken up as soon as the 1884 race to Nanaimo is completed

 Long range planning to soften such cruelties of nature are declar- ed necessary by Secretary of Agri- culture Wallace speaking at Bis marck, N. D. He answered critics who said that nature has shown the futility of man made control
 Answers Critics
 He said he could not see Ahow anyone who has gone through this drought area can say kind word for natures method of crop reduc- tion. Mans methods, though in- perfect, are perfection itself by comparison with the occasional crudeness, ruthlessness and uncer- tainties of nature"
 He called for permanent long range planning and said that pro- duction control would not be aban- doned because of the drought.
 Such programs insure farmers some income from benefit pay ments in such periods as this, he said, and continued that it would enable the government to guaran- tee sufficient food by sorting grain on farms.

SOCIALISTS TO RESIST WAR BY

Annual Convention Adopts Revolutionary Program
 -Old Guard Routed

DETROIT, June 7.-The Social ist Party of America is commit ted to revolutionary program ad- vocating resistance to war with all available means, including the gen. eral strike, and to the belief that democracy must not stand in the way of the establishment of pro- letariat rule in event of the com plete collapse of capitalism.
 The convention of the party after routing the right wing old guard" in the election of national executive committee-affirmed it's belief in these principles by two- to-one vote.
 This was the boldest, most mili- tant stand taken by the Socialist Party since the anti-war declara- tion of the convention in 1917 in St. Louis.
 In the national committee elec- tions only one member of the old guard" slate was elected - James ONeal editor of The New Leader.
 The coalition of centrists, leftists and extremists easily forced through a national committee friendly to the party leadership of Norman Thomas.
 Recognition of "class struggle" was also made prerequisite for membership in the Socialist Far ty by delegates at the national convention. The vote was unani- nous
 The delegates also voted to change the name of the party to ''The Socialist Party of the Unit ed States of America"

WANT TO BE ANNEXED?

Edgar F. Hastings, supervisor of San
Diego county, comes to the front with
somewhat radical suggestion for reliev-
ing certain difficulties under which he
declares San Diego and Imperial counties
labor.
He urges that the two counties with
draw themselves from California and an
mex themselves to Arizona.
Numerous mutual advantages of such
a plan are listed, among them fine har-
Dor for Arizona, a real college rating for
San Diego State college, and placing
both counties considerably nearer to the
capital of the state.
He asserts we would then have two
senators in Washington to fight our bat
ties instead of having one from Los An
geles and one from San Francisco as at
present.
San Diego would be protected from at
tempts by northern communities to take
away its naval and military activities;
water, light and power interests accru-
ing from Boulder dam would be pooled,
making it possible to build up an empire
in the southwest.
The new arrangement would give Ari-
zona better outlet for its mineral and
agricultural products and would rem
edy present discrimination against San
Diego in the matter of freight rates
We don't see much of anything advan-
tageous to Imperial county in the plan.
The supervisor is rather optimistic IN
pointing out how it would benefit his own
county and Arizona, but Imperial county
seems to be rather slighted.
Does Supervisor Hastings know that
Arizona would want us if we did decide
to secede from California? Supposing
they didn't want US, and we had cut our
selves off from California, would we
start up an independent state or seek
annexation to Mexico?
With all due respect to Arizona, isn't
it worth something to be a'Californian
or have we been laboring under delu-
sion all these years?
Germany just dares anyone to attack
them. Trying to make folks forget last
weeks little escapade.
These clouds don't mean anything un-
less they do their stuff.
