HOONAH RESIDENTS
DECIDEDLY ANGRY
■ J. J. Underwood writing in the
Seattle Times of recent date, sets
forth the situation at Hoonah very
clearly. Hoonah, however, is not
the only place thus affected- The
article follows:
Five white men, residents of
Hoonah, Alaska, are being forced
to the conclusion that governmental
tyranny imposed upon them has
reached the limit- They have been
debarred from the great privilege
of expressing their chdice at a
general election- That surely was
bad enough. It made them more
than hostile
But \yhen they discovered that
the privilege for which they yearn
ed had been granted to 350 Indians,
while the white men will not be al
lowed any vote at all, they thought
it time to file a protest- Hence James
Wickersham, Alaska’s delegate in
Congress, is having a number of
seances with the U. S. bureau of
education and other departments at
Washington.
For many years the white men
at Hoonah, most of whom are trad
ers, lived happily without a vote
There was no lofal government at
Hoonah, but they managed to get
along very well without it. Trade
was good, the Indians were con
tented, the fish cannery opened up
each summer for a brief season, and
everything was lovely.
Into this Arcady of contentment,
however, the Alaska Legislature at
its last session unintentionally pok
ed a meddlesome finger. There has
been strife and bickering and dis
content ever since. The Legislature
passed a bill providing that the
native residents of Indian villages
might, if they so desired, establish
a municiffil government Under the
law these municipalities are to be
strictly Indian organizations. The
law worked out, very well until it
came to Hoonah. Up to that time
the communities incorporated had
been made up entirely of Indians
Taxation Without Representation
At Hoonah, it is different. Most of
the taxable property belongs to the
white men. They will have to pay
most of the cost of running the
municipal government, but will have
no voice in it- Hence the protest to
Washington.
The commissioner of education has
written W. T- Lopp, chief of the
bureau of education in Alaska, for
particulars- But Lopp, having no
voice in, or influence with the ter
ritorial Legislature cannot have the
law repealed. The Legislature does
not meet for another year, anyway.
C. A. Bevans, one of the store
keepers, in his letter to Washing
ton says that he is already under
the domination of one foreign gov
ernment namely, the forest service,
and now an effort is being made to
put him under another. He relates
that a number of white men are be
ing denied the rights of citizenship
and asks in capital letters: “Can
you beat it?”
THE PAT GARBAGE CAN.
It is no credit to us that "the
American garbage can is the fattest
in the world," remarked Senator
Smoot when he injected into the Sen
ate debate on preparedness a plea
for preparedness for good house
keeping and better homes- “If I had
a dozen daughters and was able to
give each of them a million dollars
the day of their marriage," said the
Senator, “I would still want each to
know how to cook, make her own
clothes, and, in fact, be a superior
housekeeper-” The skilful cook and
housekeeper is the one who secures
the maximum results with a mini
mum expenditure of money. Any
cook should be able to serve a good
meal with an unlimited pocketbook
at her disposal- The test comes
when this is done at small expense,
and the highest art, as all clever
cooks acknowledge, is to make a
good meal out of left-overs that the
thriftless threw away. The waste
fulness at the table of the American
hotel and restaurant has always a
mazed the foreign traveler. In re
'cent year the same spirit of waste
fulness has found its way into the
private homes, producing what Sen
ator Smoot calls the “fat garbage
pai.” Meat left-overs which a
French chef or a German cook could
convert into delicious stews and ra
gouts, and great quantities of bread
crusts that should be converted into
U puddings, find their way into the na
tional garbage pail. There was
never a time when the American
people needed more than now to hear
the proverb—"Wilful waste makes
woeful want”

A demurrer to the indictment
against Edward Krause charging
fraudulent use of the mails when
he received certain lexers through
the mails from Vancouver, was
argued this- morning by Attorney
Kazis Krauczunas and District At
torney Smiser. The demurrer was
overruled by Judge Jennings who

the bank account to him, be tried
together as they were crimes of a
similar nature- The motion was
granted and the three cases will
go to trial, starting tomorrow
morning.
Attorney Krauczunas asked that
the order of trials of the remain
ing cases against Krause be an
nounced and Mr. Smiser stated that
the program of trials will be made
known tomprrow.
Krazis Krauczunas announced this
morning in the District Court that
Monday morning he will file a mo
tion for a change of venue in the
Krause cases- He will ask that
they he transferred to Ketchikan.
Edward was arraigned this morn
ing on two indictments of murder
and entered pleas of not guilty.
The order of trial for the capes
was announced this morning by
District Attorney Smiser. The first
case tried will be the forgery of the
two orders on the Dexter Horton
Bank, of Seattle, for monev of the
account of K. Yamamoto. This case
will be started Monday morning.
Tf will.he followed by the trial for
the murder of J: 0. Plunkett. ,
