How ever, It will continue the fight to the i end. It says: "The people of Alaska will receive no full measure, or even a partial meas ure. of home rule until they adopt a territorial or state constitution, and say to congress. 'We have done this, now what are you going to do?' ? ? ? t t "That Alaska has many sincere and warm friends in the congress will not be denied. But these men have their limitations. There are questions of party policy ami expediency that can not be ignored, and no matter how deep their loyalty to Alaska may be, their fealty to their party will be found stronger than their zeal to do justice to the people of distant Alaska We do not believe that it is the policy of this administration? the policy of the re publican party. If you will, to grant any form of autonomy to this territory. That will only be had. we submit, when the people, by their own act, have made a territorial or Hate government an accomplished fact, and then knock at the doors of congress and ask: ' What will you do with usT The time for this act is not yet, but it will be here within five years, when Alaska will have a population of at least ?5.<X*0 -ouls. In the meantime, though un armed with anything save a just and righteous purpose, we shall continue to teach the doctrine of home rule for Alaska and a full and complete recog nition of the rights of the people who make up her American citizenship." If Alt ska shall jet territorial gov ernment from congress it will be by a few strong men with a just quarrel forcing victory from reluctant leaders of the senate and house of representa tives. If Alaska werv represented at Wa*hinjMn by a few able, earnest and patriotic men they probably would be able to interest enough of the members of the senate and house in their cause to secure their rights. The Seattle I\*t- Intel Ugeocer says Jackson, who was sentenced from Skag wav u a member of the "Soapy" Smith gang and who is seeking his release un der habeas corpus proceedings, was not a member of the gang. That is funny. The P.-L is frequently funny. INDIANS SENT BACK TO LIBERIA A native, his wife and children were deported from St. I-awrence island to the Siberian shore on the late cruise of the Bear. The native had been tried on a charge of assault bv (.'apt Hamlet of the Rear, acting U. S. commissioner, but he was acquitted, there not being sufficient evidence to convict. He was a native of Siberia, and was deported from St. Lawrence island, which is a government reservation, on the ground that he was an objectionable person.?

M. Hrewer, the min ing expert, who represents the Tyee smelter in the north. He says the re sults have fully justified the roseate outlook of laat spring. Mr. Hrewer has just returned from Ketchikan where he ?.pent several days among the minijg men and properties of that section. In speaking of the development there, Mr. Brewer said: "The Omar Copper Company, at Skowl Arm, will oommence shipping ore to the Tyee Copper Company about October I and expects to ship up to 9000 tons a month. The tramways to the mine are practically completed and several thousand tons of ore are on the dump. "Valparaiso mine, of Dolomi. is ship ping high grade gold bearing quartz to the Tyee Copper Company. "The Gravina Island mine, owned by Mayor George Irving, Otto Miller and Harry Brice, is shipping concentrates and sorted ore to Tyee. A five-stamp mill is running on the property." Mr. Brewer says the Niblack and other properties sre shipping ore regu larly. The Brown-Alaska Company, which owns the smelter at Hadley, and allied companies are preparing to take out ore. The smelter will be started soon. Mr. Brewer is accompanied by T. S. Mathis, a mining engineer of San Fran cisco, who joined him at Ketchikan, and who is making his first trip to Alas ka. They will go to Whitehorse to morrow. If you are out of kindling see E McC Weste.
