GOV. HOGCATT’S HEAL VIEWS.
A f statement - ' 1 •. Hog
gatt’s recent utterances at Dawson,
on the subject of a change in Alaska's
form of gov ernment credits him with
saying a territorial form of
government "may he a wise
form’’ when the time comes to adopt
; but "aftei . ■ . w eigfali
matter" he has reached the conclusion
that the time has not yet arrived for
the change. The majority of people
of Alaska take the contrary vie w.
Gov, Iloggatt's -tatement that “the
newspaper campaign is designed to
destroy my influence with the national
government,” is unworthy of i.irn.
In his own admission that the people
of Alaska are earnestly supporting
the campaign for local self-govern
ment. he may find an explanation of
why newspapers friendly to Alaska
are opposed to his views, for tin
news: apei s believe, not unrea.sonably
that the people of Alaska, including
two delegates specifically instructed
on the precise issue, are less apt to
be wrong in this paticular matter than
Gov. Hoggatt and the corporations.
When Gov. Hoggatt admit-, that
the i ople of Alaska desire a terri
torial form of government, and urge
nt the same time that such a form of
government would not now be good
for them, he say-, in effect, that
American citizens of Alaska are not
intelligent enough to xco-v their own
t. -ebs. but must look to l .m, of some
other person of superior intelligence,
for guidance and protection.
i
Surely, Gov, FIov.it does not mean
to say any veil thn _ of his intelli
gent and loyal countrymen in the
north rn country, if he thinks any
such thing of Alaska: he should
g< t closer to them and know them
better. Perhaps if he knew them
better he would he more inclined to
trust them with the management of
their own affairs. Alaskans know
what they want. They know what
they need. They know what they
must have in order to make the best
possible use of their intelligent
energies and rich Oj portunitie-.
If Gov. Hoggatt will get a bit closer
to Alaskans, they inav K able to con
vince him that Alaska is even now
ready for the just constitutional powers
the American government has always
conferred upon territories in like eir
- . s, and t
ernor ought to uo.—Seattle P.-I.
MAINLY THEIR OWN FAULT.
In many of the states the trade
competition c; the large mail ordei
houses has implied the retail dealers
to organize a league for the purpose
of waging war agaiust what they art
pleased to doom mate unfair ar.d to
them ruinous competition. While it
is mat ifestly the dut lit
- and distinct
difference in prices not being too
great, to support the home dealer, it
is by no means certain that the home
merchant is not himself principally,
if not wholly, to blame if he does not
get the trade to which he regards
himself justly entitled. A: -.11 eve::.-,
it will be found that in rucst instances
he has failed to ad a t ti e most , A ct
ive means of securing and retaining
the trade th loss of which he dep’or-s
—the very methods employed by the
mail concerns to rob him of that
which would ordinarily to be exclus
ively his own. He fails to study the
methods of the maii order concerns
and take advantage of the- lessons
they teach.
The success . til uses
lies in the fact that they tell the
people what they have to sell and at
rhat pace. They advertise. This
advertising informs the customer
where he can get what he wants and
at what cost. Often through illustra
tions it suggests purchases that he
havi not thought of and cause him to
fee! that he did not know before. Th
result A the stimulation of staple

other hand, often keeps to himself

has and at w . it j rii .

If the customer want- to come all t:.c

merchants operating on this plan and
the maii order house, using advanced
advertising methods, tbi . -1 ord
house has all the adi.i _ . The
local merchant may have on his
shelves wares just as good or better
than those of the mail order house
and a: a price as low or low er. Vet

A new phase of the unwritten law
was developed in a local court at Fall

OHIO AT EXPOSITION. I
Tho Ohio Society of the State of 1
Washington is planning to have the
hi Buckeye state represented at- the
Alaska-Yukon-Pacitie exposition in a
manner which will appeal to tho
pride of every native Ohioan. 1
whether he bo a resident, of the
Northwest, or a visitor at the exposi
tion.
An Ohio building will be construct
ed of such a character that i: will be
one of the permanent buildings of
the University of Washint^on at the
close of the exposition, and will, dur
ing the exposition, serve r« a meeting
place and bureau of information for
,.l nativt Ohii't s. In connection
with the undertaking a somewhat
novel idea will be carried out under
the direction of the “Log Com
mittee" of the Ohio Society. This
committee will secure the names and
address,s of all former Ohioans resid
ing in Washington and Alaska, with i
their home tow.i and county in Ohio. !
These names will be cataloged by
the Ohio counties, and sub-cataloged j
by cities, towns and townships. The i
result of this undertaking will be!
known as “The Ohio Log." and will
be on exhibition for the use of visitors j
at the exposition thus enabling any !
visitor : > lint! the address of any for- j
•ur re-id at of Ohio with whoiu he i
was acquainted. The committee be
lieves that the “log" will be one of
the most attractive features of the
exposition for visiting Ohioans and
others who have friends from Ohio in
the Northwest, and that it will aid j
in carrying out the purpose, of the;
exposition by placing visitors in c. -
muuieat ion with former friends who |

Prior tv the opening of the expesi

will attract great attention to the ex* ’

It is estimated that • here are with

Ohioans. The g :;herir;g of the r.arnt -

RATH HR DISINOF.NUOUS.
Governor Hoggatt, in what appears
0 have been an authorized statement
viivd to the Seattle P.-I. from Fair
banks. is made to say: "I deny that
L ever said at any time or place that
til Ah.-k uis were opposed to self'gov
rrumeut. On the contrary, I havej
ilwavs claimed that the "idea is
supported l\v "them. 1 sincerely be- \
.leva my attitude is right, and clamor
ivill not shako me from that position,
rho newspaper clamor does not
wther me in the least. I believe the
lawspapcr campaign is designed to
le.-troy my influence with the national!
government. Having perfect assur
ing • at first hand tliat this will not
’.rise. I regard the biting criticism
is unfortunate, but not dangerous tb
my work."
The Miner may be excused if it de- \
dims to accept this disclaimer as al
Logether sincere and disingenuous.
Governor Hoggatt has not been accus
ed o! saying at any time or place tha t
"all Alaskans were opposed to self- j
government," and his denial of hav- j
ing done >o therefore fails to meet the
question at issue between himself
and the people whom he assumed to
i\present only to misrepresent and in
directly vidify. Not only has he
asserted in his newspaper interviews!
and in private conversation that the
pool . ere: l are oppos
ed to home government, but that was 1
tha impression he sought to convey •
gress last
winter, when lie said over his own
singature .a a letter to the president j
which tiie latter transmitted to eon- ■
g:o -. “ t is the r 11c :.-as of opinion
of the coils native business men,
.!:..-• without exception * * that |
the time N inopportune for that form
of government," that a "large por
tion of th agitation for territorial
garernmiT.t comes from the saloon1
eletut: t which is desirous of decreas
ing the burdens now imposed upon
that business, and at the same
time obtain a greater liberty than
they now have in the conduct of their 1
businCs," jand that "another large
portion comes from the demagogic |
• Ub s .... : the essential rights of
citizenship, with which I take a de
cided issu,-." Again, did lie not
assert in that same letter that the !
"question of territorial government 1

ei ition.o! delegate to congress, at
. Vaskey and Gale, run- :
nin on a plaMorra pledging them to
its support re el ct< I y such an

It ail comes to this as the plain j
unvarnished turtb, that Mr. Hog
gatt Ik - not only declared his own j
unquaiitii opposition to territorial
gov
ernment for Alaska, witisout advanc
ing any logical reasons therefor, but

that lie still has It ft w ithin him some
of tlie spirit of patriotism inherent to
tru-..- Americanism, and that he may ;
be made to realize ere long, that \
without change of heart and conduct1
he will kick in vain against the

"b st. people” are sadly in need of a;

v- tin.*,- he opens his mouth to put,
:.is foot in it.
Notwithstanding his denial of ever
(laving said at any time, or in any
place that "all Alaskans are opposed
,o self-government-," coupled with the j
tss rtiej, thus an tiro contrary he has
"it!way.-; claimed ’ that the idea is'

of the "solid
half the oppone

earned.
The fact that the congress assumes
tho right and the power to levy a
system of local taxation on the Lius
iu«.ss and industry of Alaska, which
in any organized territory clothed
with the taxing power, would un
doubtedly be held unconstitutional,
should of itself be sufficient to set the
thinking caps of the so-called "solid
interests" into active motion, and
cause an anxious inquiry on the part
of their owners as to what tho future
is likely to bring forth in tho way of
taxation—whether or not they will
fie safer in tho hands of a practically
foreign legislative body with unlimit
ed powers of taxation so far as
Alaska is concerned, or less likely to
suffer at the hands of a local legisla
ture with limited taxing powers. It
the congress can lay a tax of three
dollars a head on their stamp mills,
it can just as easily and legally make
tho amount ten. twenty, fifty or a
hundred dollars, and increase the tax
on salmon correspondingly.
But that is not the only thing the !
spokesmen for the "solid interests"
seem to have overlooked. It seem
ingly has not occurred to them that
their extraordinary assertions regard
ing the geneous treatment of Alaska by
the federal government, may be
accepted at its face value by congress,
and that body coupling them with
Alaska's boasted rapidly growing
wealth and expanding trade and com
merce. might put on its own thinking
cap and conclude that a district of !
country admittedly so well able to
take care of itself, should forthwith
have the nursing bottle taken away
from it, and be made to provide it
own sustenance. These spokesmen
for the "solid interests" are, by i
their utterances, giving congress
ample excuse for such action, if in
deed, not good and sufficient reasons
for determining that hereafter, no !
matter ho w generous the disposition
of the congress, there shall be a just
and equitable system of taxation pro
vided for Alaska. How would a law
fixing a limit of time within whicli
applications for patents to quartz
lode mining claims and placer loca
tions must be made, and title secured,
or in the case of the latter providing
for a mining license, or tax on gross
production, together with a tax on |
rolits in the < ther case, and sim
ilar congressional enactment all along
the Alaska line of industrial produc
tion suit the "rolid intwests?"
The Miner sincerely hopes that the |
ill-advised spokesmen of the "solid
interests" may not provoke some such
action on the part of congress, hut I
it is a matter which it behoves those j
inten .-ts to seriously consider. It,
may not come, but it is the opinion of
The Miner that through territorial
organization lies the only sure wav
to its certain avoidance.
