EDITORIAL

that the community of Wrangell is most grateful for the two-day ex- tension which was allowed the fish ermen of this district. It has been very helpful.
 However, we think that MT Win gard may perhaps have missed the point of the editorial. It was indi- cated therein that 1t would be to the benefit of the people of this area If the run of fish were watch ed very closely, and then for the Bureau to act accordingly Subse- quently, the prediction in the edi- torial proved to be true. The run was late. And from reliable indica- tions it was heavy.
 The greatest benefit from the ex- tension was secured by the salmon traps and this helped the local can neries considerably. But not until the last day of the extension did the fish arrive in Whale Bay, part of Clarence Strait particularly adapted to seine fishing. With the season closed for good, 1t was reported that Whale Bay was massed with sal mon.
 The wealth of this community is function of the wealth of it's fish ermen. The traps efficiently sup ply fish to the canneries but do not materially add to the money in cir. culation. How beneficial it would have been could the Bureau have taken cognizance of the situation possibly have closed the traps tC fishing and allowed the fishermen a few days chance at the run fol
 which they had been waiting al
 season.
 .l It's something to think abou next year!

viously allowed, feeling as we do, that the escapement in the past may have possibly been too large. Surely I could have no personal req son for arbitrarily refusing to recom- mend extensions if fish were pres ent. On the other hand I would be doing your town and the fishermen who depend on the salmon runs in that locality for a livelihood, unpardonable harm, if I listened to pleas for extensions, no matter how insfstent, when the salmon runs were as short as they appeared to be and as time has since definitely proved they were, in the Sumner Straits area.

GOLD
 TAX SMELLS
 HERR. TREAS.

Due to more than a half million dollars in collections of the mining ] Lax, the Territorial treasury's bal- anee on August 31 was at the high est peak in it's history $1, ,468,595.75 according to the August report sub mitted to Coy. Troy by Territorial Treasurer Oscar C. olson. The treasurer's report indicated an increase of approximately $340,- 900 over the balance on August 3I. l937. The three per cent gross tax on gold mining. collections on last years salmon pack and sale of liquor stamps were the top sources of income.
 The treasury balance has scared in the past five fiscal years from a figure of $641.833.79 reported on August 31, 1883, to nearly one and a half millions on a mounting tide of Alaskan prosperity in mining and fishing
 However, without the half million dollars received from the new min ing tax the past year, the present treasury balance would have been but S96S, S,595.75 the lowest Of any year since 1884 on the same date.
 Comparative treasury balances for each year since 1888 at the period ending on August 31 follow.
 1883 -$64I,833.79; 1934-$913,- 596.83. 1935-s1,149,68458, 1886 -$1,O09.212.29; 1937-$1,128.68I. 36; 1938-$1,468,595.75.

DimOnd, Davis Hold
 Democratic Rally

A large attendance greeted Dele gate Anthony J. Dimond, and James V. Davis Democratic candidate for i reelection in next Tuesdays cleo tion, MT. Dimond as delegate from Alaska to Congress and MT. Davis as representative in the Territorial legislature
 Mr Davis speaking first confined his remarks almost entirely to call ing attention to the federal bureaus rule of Alaska which he says causes much distress. Speaking briefly of the regulations of the Alaska Game Commission which he termed ridicu- lous in many respects he turned to the Bureau of Fisheries. He said he questioned the integrity of the Alaska agent and opposed the put ting of control of such vast re- sources in one mans hold.
 Beginning with the northernt portion of the fishing areas in this division, he worked southward cit-I ing instances of incompetency, of neglect of duty, assailing the bureau for it's policy of throwing fishing areas open to the big corporations, closing them to the little fellows. Without mincing words he named names, gave dates, related incidents of fayoritism, all being matters of fisheries iiaasHMhl5saaeee as h5aa rapay showing. he in authority.
 MT. Davis said that if Congress could only be made to see the pie ture as it really is, a change would be effected. He advocates the legis- lature memoriaIizing Congress, go- ing about the matter in such a way that the mal-administration of she fisheries could not be ignored and told the voters that they certainly can depend on me to do my best to rectify these conditions if 1 am returned to the legislature.
 Alaska is a vast country Dele gate Dimond pointed out, and it's delegate to Congress must think not in the terms of sections but of the Territory and the people as a whole"
 He mentioned his pleasure in hav- ing been able to get harbor im- provements under way in 1886 at Wrangell and appropriations of S275,000 made available for a fed cal building.

August 31, 1888 Editor Wrangell Sentinel
 Wrangell Alaska
 Your editorial of Friday August the twenty-sixth making comments on the salmon fishery at Wrangell has been duly noted
 Uu VIII have tUuI if0o ffs''' that in the two upper areas of the Clarence Straits District on which Wrangell depends for a portion of it's fish, extensions have been al- lowed. In one of these areas a long CT extension than in any of the Oth- CT districts was effected. In the Oth- CT which was due to close the twen- ty-eighth of this month. thereby ending on a weekly closed period, fishing was resumed from the twen- ty-ninth to the thirty-first, In spite of all the statements you may have received from prejudiced sources beg to advise you that there were no salmon present in the streams ot the Wrangell area at the time ot my survey. I am speaking of pink salmon of course, since they make up the major part of the runs in the Wrangell area. During the days spent covering the streams in the Wrangell area only a few chums were noted spawning in the various streams. Might I say in closing that during the administration of Franf T. Bell as Commissioner and mysel. as Alaska Agent more extensions have been granted and a policy hai been followed of permitting more salmon to be taken than was pre-

Next Tuesday, September 13, we will have with us again the Terri torial elections. This year they are of particular interest to the people of Wrangell for we have a local resident, F. S. Barnes, who is can didate for the House of Representa- tives.
 It is the duty of every good cit1- zen to go to the polls and vote. In Tuesdays election, voting not only should be regarded as a duty, but as a matter of civic pride, Wrangell can well benefit from the prestige of having a representative in the Legislature at Juneau. And the I j. itical issues of the community are so slightly divided that citizens can afford to give non partisan vote of confidence to the local candida e. No other candidate will so sincere ly advance the interests of Wran- gell as our home town man.
 MT. Barnes has a long record of fair-dealing with the people and ye feel confident that he would repres- ent this Division with integrity.
 Tn the April primaries MT. Bar. es boiled a flattering vote in the Div ision and at Wrangell, refuting the 1 adage that a prophet is without honor in his own country, he receiv i ed 191 votes of the 192 Republican votes cast Two ballots improperly marked reduced his net vote to 189 This was a wonderful vote of conf dence from his party. Tuesday WI
 should extend that vote on a non
 partisan basis, put our entire voting
 strength back of him with 100 pel cent support.
 To accomplish this an aggressive
 attitude must be taken by the com
 munity. Due mainly to fishing sea
 son conditions, there has been a sal
 lack of interest shown. We all wan Mr. Barnes elected, but we hay been too passive about it. If we ex pect man to go out and do battl
 for us, We first must do battle fo :. him. In the end just one thin , makes a candidate for office a win , ner, and that is the ballot count. s To this end we urge that ever v citizen, whether he be Democrai ol Republican or Independant get ou
 to the polls and vote for Frank f Barnes.
