Alaskans First.
Anchorage Times.)

With the appointment of another member to the high judicial bench in Alaska about to be made, the old ghost of the carpet bagger again looms in the offng.
 Many candidates for the position are appearing on. the horizon in States from Texas to Vermont and from Florida to the Pacific.
 Alaska wants no imported timber She has men of her own who eminently qualified and who entitled to whatever honors and favors the Administration is in position to bestow. The nam ing of a Judge brings with it authority to name many Commissioners and other minor officers. Alaska has no need of talent from outside sources. She has rich red blooded of brain and brawn of her own, and there is no need of calling on politicians or others from the Texas ranges Rhode Island, Madagascar Hongkong any other part of the world.
 How would men in the States feel if legal lights and others of Alaska should go plum hunting in their States. It would be reasonable for Alaska to seek of the political patronage of any State it is for in those States to ask for positions in Alaska.
 Time was when the States of Oregon and Pennsylvania pulled down most of the official ap- pointments in this Territory That day is past and the ruling applies to all States
 The carpet baggef is not wanted and will not be acceptable to any political non-partsan element in Alaska. Republicans and Democrats may differ political issues in Alaska but when it comes to Federal appointment, they are brothers-and of mind
 Alaska for Alaskans is a slogan that might well be kept in mind-and in so doing the powers who select the for official positions in Alaska will be proving their wisdom and win the con- fidence and support of the people of Alaska.

A CONCESSION THAT DOES NOT GO
 FAR ENOUGH.

Longshore union officers in San Francisco nave shown realization of the seriousness Of the sltua- ton in Bristol Bay by recommending to the Seattle strikers that the cannery supply ships for that section be released from the shipping tieup that IS parayzng the industry and commerce of tms Territory. Several days ago. San Francisco strikers granted like concession to the vessels sailing out of that port Surely the Seattle unions will not be less consderate. If they follow the recommenda- tion that will materially tighten the menace of the strike situation but it will lack much of removing all danger. It will enable the salmon canning industry of small area to operate. It will like wise permit food and other supplies to reach the residents of the region
 But there is vast lying between South east Alaska and Bristol Bay the coast including the towns of Yakutat Cordova Valdez, Latouche Seward, Sedovia and Kodiak, to name only the largest and many smaller settlements, Indian and white the entire Alaska Railroad belt from Seward to Fairbanks, the river system of the Panama and Yukon Rivers with numerous scattered towns and villages for which no provision has been made. Most of the region between Juneau and Fairbanks are a weekly purchase basis. Merchants are accus- toned to receiving regular shipments of foodstuffs once each week throughout the year. Although Juneau merchants received their shipments last week, there has been shortage of produce and vegetables here since late last week. Communities  more serious situation.
 What of the salmon canneries of the Alaska Peninsula, Kodiak and Afognak Cook Inlet, Prince William Sound and Southeast Alaska? Are they to be forced to do without supplies because they ship commercial lines and not operating in competition with them? The canning is right at their doors They must make many preparations before then It is too late to do that after the fish gone.
 AS Gov Troy has emphasized Alaska is not taking side in the strike It is not for against either party to it. Of course, it is evidently going to be ended by mediation and arbitration. Neither side is probably all right all wrong. Pending that settlement, the just thing to do is to accept the tender made by operators of vessels between Seattle and Alaska, that is, to declare truce Alaska shipping; permit it to operate usual; and when settlement is reached require that it's terms be applied retroactivey to Alaska shipping of the day of resumption of operations Such agree ment injure It will not weaken the strike front And it will prevent serious harm to Alaska and it industry and commerce

 championship bout that will not draw very large crowd is featuring Dr. Edwin Hubble head of the Mount Wilson Observatory, and Dr. Albert Einsein, revered for his delightful person. ality by millions who haven't the faintest idea what he in his papers and addresses
 Dr. Ensten seemed to have things his way for several years He said the universe was static and measurable Either nobdy understood his reasoning or else nobody had time to dig up proofs to the contrary. Then Hubble found some facts concerning the fading of the spectra of distant unverses, and convinced Enstein that the universe Gall of it) is in fact expanding at a pretty good clip.
 showdown is coming this week Dr. Hubble faces critical audience at Oxford. Der of the English pretty well up their physics, and Dr. Hubble may have to back track before he is through Naturally, the gate receipts at this show will be small Most of us lack either the understanding of physical terminology else the imagination to get thrill out of light quanta and fading nebulae
 If and when these two and few other physicists make up their minds and reach at least tentative agreement, it would be nice to know whether the universe is static expanding-or for that matter contracting. Not that we would do anything about it. But it would be nice to know. It's universe even if it is 36OOOO0 O0O 900 100000 miles across And we've right to know what it's doing

NEITHER MEDICATION NOR QUARREL

Recently the Keschikan Chronicle which con- tnues to De "hopped up over liquor control assumed that there is quarrel between the Juneau City Council and the Board of Liquor Control Editorally it accused the local municipal administration of passing the buck back to the Liquor Board That is, of course too silly to need refutation. If there is difference of opinion between the local City Council and the Board, any other agency of the Territory, none in Juneau has heard of it.
 Of more serious import is the charge of the Ketchikan publication that Mayor Goldstens Ad- ministraton is not concerned whether we have orderly or dsorderly government It intimates that the Ketchikan City Council will make no attempt to conduct an orderly government winch can hardly be credited by those who know Mayor Gilmore per- sonally We cannot believe he would be party to conniving at lawlessness for political or any other purpose
 In this connection the Chronicle said:
 The Juneau Council is assuming the same
 position as the Ketchikan Council The .
 method of procedure is different In Juneau
 the municipal government will make no at
 tempt to conduct an orderly town It
 realizes that the Liquor Board wants to
 dictate the management of its business and
 agrees to abdicate rather than attempt
 bothersome situation. In Ketchikan the
 Council will test the right of the Juneau
 Board to wreck its law enforcing system
 and its given right to conduct lawful
 community.
 That sort of balderdash whether conceived in malice of ignorance, will of not be credited by single person in Juneau in so far as this city is concerned. We know nothing of nor are we responsible for any conditions that may exist in Ketchkan. No action of the Liquor Board has deprived the City Council of its right to enforce law and order within the corporate limits. If at Ketchkan municipal authorities have decided to run a wide open town without regard for decency civic self-respect or law it will not be long before the mass of law abiding, home loving people which is composed of majority of its citizens. will act decisively to mend matters
 No such condition of affairs exists here. Juneau

 The Civilian Conservation Corps finishes its first year with a record of which the Administration might boast
 It has been a life-saver for 100000 men who have found wholesome outdoor work, badly needed wages and soul solace in the green mansion of the nations great forests Of the $225 900 the project has cost, fully two-thirds have gone into buying power for families that needed it most
 Fireproofing work has kept forest fire damage down to $235000 which is less than IT per cent of the annual loss during the five years preceding 1883. Its mass attack white pine blister rust has checked a plague that threatens the entire white pine lumber industry of the Pacific Northwest It has approached timber growing agricultural industry and has planted 100000 trees in the waste places left by careless lumbermen.
 But its greatest boon has been in conserving the young foresters themselves their health morale and self-respect. Gs F Congress show its approval of this record by voting funds to finance the eco for at least another year.

Work Of Emergency Board Taken
Over by State Division-Price
Schedule Studied.

BY the Associated Press.
ALBANY, N. Y, April 2-After a
year of stormy experimentation, New
York State put into effect today a
revised milk control system that is
designed to be permanent.
A new division of milk control took
over the work of the Emergency Milk
Board. Kenneth F. Fee, director Of
milk control, set to work today to
study the need for changes in the
boards price lists. The power to fix
minimum prices is extended for an
other year only.
Commissioner of Agriculture Charles
Fl. Baldwin, whose department con-
tains the new division, said the first
year of milk control succeeded in
boosting farmers incomes by many
millions of dollars.

Is going to be a success and keep
farmers checks at a higher level de-

The 1888 Legislature was prompted
TO set up a milk control system by
demoralized conditions in the indus
try. emphasized by the Rochester
strike of March, 1888 After hearings
the board put minimum price sched-
ules in effect.
