ship weighted down with complex
problems that do not at first occur
to the experimenter.
Women have found they cannot
take off and put on virtue like a
garment. The least letdown leads
TO serious commitments.
In a situation of this kind, the
woman Is bound to lose. as she
cannot compete with men who are
not bound so rigidly to society's
rules Of morality.
The girl who believes trial mar
riage is the solution finds that her
goal of happy marriage recedes
farther into the distance with
every affair Further, she finds
that the damage to her reputation
real even in these liberal times
lessons her marriage value.
There is no refuting the fact
that legal marriage offers young
woman her only real chance at
deep and satisfying union with the
man OF her choice. Any attempt
to evade that fact is an invitation
to lifetime unhsppiness.
The solution hes not in evading
legal marriage but in being intel
ligent enough about life TO make
legal marriage work.

2S-Trial Marriage
Many men and a few women
would like to enjoy the benefits

the necessity for masculine COM

There are women, too. who have

who feel they need experience
before they can enter intelligently
into matrimony. This feeling is
often based on the observation of
other women whose ignorance
brings them unhappiness when

ultimate goal. Il viii require years
of slow and determined work. and
during thar task we can never lose
sight OF the fact that the interests
of Alaskans. the people who live and
make their livelihood in the Terri
tory, must come first and be guard
ed closely If we are not to become
Yietimized BY schemes and pressures
from the Outside. This is not to say
that We need become snug and
adopt an isolationist attitude That
is the other extreme. We IN Alaska
need and must have capital and
people from the States to aid in de
Yelopment and in building up our
population. But We do not need pres
sure groups in the States to tell
our workmen whether or not they
may work or our industries wheth-
er or not they can operate nor any
hastily conceived plans To make Al
aska a paradise for a million people
in fifteen minutes.
The Sentinel will be ever mindful
of these responsibilities as a voice in
the Territory. t asks the cooper
alton of this community, the people
of Alaska and the many friends of
Alaska on the Outside to see that it
minds them well.

JUDGE WICKERsHAM

Judge James Wickersham. one Of
Alaska.s most widely known pio-
neers. died early Tuesday morning
October u. at St. AIMS Hospital in
Juneau. following a stroke. He was
- years Of age. The Judge had been
in robust health until three days
before he was stricken.
Judge Wickersham was born at
Patoca. Marion County, Illinois on
August "a. 1857. DE was admitted
TO the bar in 1850 and became a
Probate Judge in Pierce County.
Washington. in 1881 and City At
torney of Tacoma and a member OF
the Washington Legislature in 1898.
Coming to Alaska in 1900 he lived
a year at Eagle. a year at Nome,
Two years at Valdez and sixteen
years at Fairbanks In 1921 he
moved to Juneau and had made his
home there since.
Delegate to Congress from 1893 TO
1921. and from 1921 TO 1888 Judge
Wickersham secured FOR Alaska
many advantages. mainly the pas
sage of the Organic Act. which
brought Alaska's own Legislature in
10 being. Other important achieve
ments brought about By him as
Delegate were bills Incorporating
the City OF Fairbanks; authorizing
the location and construction of the
Alaska Railroad. securing the gov
ernmental land as a site for an Ag-
ricultural College, now the Univer-
sity of Alaska, authorizing the cree
ton of the Territorial and Federal
Building at Juneau.
Judge Wickersham was as well
known as an author as a states
man and lawyer. His photography
of Alaskan Literature covering the
periods of 1724-1934 won him rec
ognition as an authority and scholar
on Alaskan history and his personal
library which contains books. maps
and charts dating from the days of
the earliest Russian exploration is
the finest and most complete to be
found on Alaska.
He was a member of the Sons of
the American Revolution, the Am
erican Anthropological Association,
the Masonic Lodge. Elks, Eagles,
Moose and the Pioneers of Alaska.
Besides his widow, who was with
him at his death, Judge Wicker
shaw is survived by a son, Lt.-Com-
mander Darrell Wickersham OF San
Francisco. Judge Wickersham's re-
mains were taken to Tacoma, pass
ing through Wrangell ON the last
southbound trip of the North Sea,
where he was eremated.

THIR0UGH THE
POLITICAL
PElRIgC@PB

With 1910 and another election
year Just around the corner. things
of a political nature begin TO take
on added interest in the Territory.
Ceutering the attention. aside from
street gossip on possible candidates
for Territorial offices. are the forth
coming conventions.
The Democrats. first To start the
ball rolling. are scheduled to hold
their Territorial convention in Ju-
neau on January 16, according 10
the call issued by Territorial Chair
man nr. Aubrey R. Carter Of Fair
banks. Divisional Chairman NJ e.
Monagle of Juneau. First Division
has indicated the Divisional eonelaye
probably will be in Ketchikan. no
date yet being set but probably in
December.
The Republicans are considering
their Territorial convention for
either Seward or sitka No call has
as yet been Used and leaders are
awaiting word from National Com
mitteeman E. a. Rasmussen Of Skag-
way. who is now is the States Dope
i'm Juneau where Territorial Chair
man Elton Engstrom holds forth is
thai Seward will get the cal if the
Republicans mp 10 the Westward
want il. otherwise it probably Will
go 10 Sitka.
=
Political fireworks are prognosti-
Gated for both groups when they fl
nally line up in convention. The
old rupture Of 1896 in the Republic
can ranks. while forgotten To large
degree BY most Republicans. is still
not healed and while there has been
a great deal Of talk of getting to-
gether inquiry reveals that the lead
ers who were in control at Douglas
and later at the Cleveland national
convention are still in control Of
the party in the Territory as the
G. o. P. lays its battle lines for
1870 and the opposing faction
hasn't decided just what to do about
it. Whatever is done probably will
develop at the convention.
And all is not a path of roses in
the Democratic camp, according to
informed sources. While there is no
discard over leadership at the pres
ent time, a challenge is likely to be
made at the Juneau convention, not
as TO men but more likely as to plat
form, which, of course, to be sue
cessful must carry with it control.
The diseord if such it might be called
began to show itself last winter
during the legislative session. Some
of the party members, whom the Old
Guard refers to as left-wingers and
who refer to themselves as liberals,
became a bit dissatisfied because
they believed the liberal view was
being sqelched rather than broad
ened. Then some legislation which
had found strong liberal support
fell by the wayside and a good many
lawmakers went home unhappy. It

THE SENTINEL CARRIES ON

IN taking over The Sentinel as
of this issue your editor is mindful
Of his responsibilities the paper,
TO the community and to the Terri
tory.
Your newspaper. The Sentinel. is
the dean of Alaska newspapers.
Since it was started on November
20, 1902, it has never missed
week OF publication. Other news
papers were launched in the Terri
tory prior to that date but none sur
yiyed the long pull Either they
were discontinued, merged with 9th
er papers or reestablished in differ
ent locations under other names
For example, the first newspaper es-
tablished IN this community was the
Stikeen River Journal, first publish
ed on January OF 1898. Il strug-
gled along for a year and a half and
was discontinued. There followed the
Wrangell News in the same year
Part of the latter meager equip
ment was taken TO Douglas where
IS vas used in the publication OF
the deceased Douglas Island News
The equipment from the Douglas
News later was used in the publ
cation OF Stroller's Weekly at Ju-
neau which paper in more recent
years became the foundation of the
comparatively new Alaska Press pub
lished in that city now.
Thus, The Sentinel has the ira
dition of not only being the oldest
continuously published newspaper in
the Territory of Alaska. but through
the years it has carried on tie fight
for its community. its citizens and
for the Territory as a whole. Some
of those years have been lean. as
the old files reveal, but The Sen
tinels clarion call has never been
silenced. 1t is the ambition OF its
new editor to see that it never will
be; that in carrying forth the ira
ditions, The Sentinel may do more in
furthering the interests OF this COM
munity of its people and the resi-
dents OF Alaska.
= =
4 newspapers first duty is to its
own community. That must have
been the policy of The Sentinel in
the past or it would not have sur
yiYed for nearly IS years to become
the Territory's oldest newspaper. 1t
certainly will be the policy of The
Sentinel as long as the present edi-
tor sits at its editorial desk. It's
columns will be open to spread the
news of the interests of Wrangell
and its surrounding community and
the affairs and problems OF its peO-
pie 1t may be that in the early is
sues, or until your Sentinel staff
gets better acquainted and its mem
bers become more conyersant with
the affairs Of the community, that
errors will crop up or omissions
occur. In this respect The Sentinel
staff begs your sufferance and your
cooperation Ii you know Of news
that should be in the paper, call
The Sentinel office or the editors
house.
~
Lastly. your editor accepts the
responsibility of this newspap er's
duty to the Territory and the peo-
pie of Alaska. The newspapers OF the
Territory are the major media of
expression for Alaskans They are
the force which must carry forward,
in behalf of the people. the fight to
see that Alaska gets its rightful
heritage; that its industries and
natural resources are developed;
that its people prosper, and that
ultimately Alaskans can demand,
and get, that which is inevitable
statehood.
1t is a long road ahead to that

Another peep through the peris-
cope and one finds in tie political
picture the recent appointment Of
Dr. Ernest Gruening as Governor Of
the Territory drawing universal at

opinion that the Territory should

orally in the Territory as pressure

had become a bit miffed on several
occasions ON his almost historic trip
north in 1888. AIaskans realized that
he couldn't have been entirely hap
p when his proposed eight per cent
gold tax was neatly sidetraeked By
the last Legislature. and there were
other incidents
Coupling these together some have
voiced the sentiment that perhaps
the Secretary was appointing his
own man to see that his proposed
program for the north was carried
through without a hitch Others
have been mystified why Delegate
Anthony J. Dimond didn't get a nod
from the Secretary. a perfectly ma
furaI selection in view of the pOliti-
cal lineup and one which undoubt-

of Alaskans generally. regardless OF

made by Dr.. Gruening, the victim or
