ELECTION OF SENATOR
I In di laiaion uf both Andy Ancler
s"n and George James of their candi
dacy tor Senator and the seeming senti
ment among some, that a Senator ought
tn tie selected from one now in the
district would indicate that there will
Le several candidates in the field and
as a result this district may have hut
■ me Senator in Juneau for the major
portion of the session. It would seem ]
under the circumstances that it would]
lie well in adopt the plan suggested by j
James and Anderson that is, to hold
mass meetings and by an agreed plan of
elimination in nominations practically
determine the election within a few
Lavs so titat our Senator could be pre
sent at the organization of the legisla
ture If we must wait till after election
to determine who will be our next Sena
tor then it would be too late for one
elected to make the trip over the ice and
reach Juneau in time to he able to ac
complish anything and we would not be
much better off than though we had
held no election nnd had made no at
■ tempt to fill the vacancy.
‘I'he Senate Is a small body High
Senators and it is important that thi
I Second division be fully represents
in that body and in order that tilts ma;
lie accomplished whether we send sonv
one from here or elect some one on th>
outside it will require some concerts
action on the part of the people of thi:
division bv which time will be gained
If there should be several eandidntei
and the election should he a Close on<
before full returns could be obtainei
from the outlying and isolated precinct!
the legislature will have been fully or
ganized and the work of the sessior
drawing to a close hefore our Senatoi
would be able to reach Juneau. It
would seem under all the circumstances
that some plan should be adopted by
which the people of this division will
have two Senators nt Juneau at the
time of the organization of the legisla
ture
A P.T.OAV AT UNIONISM
Tlie decision of the Supreme Court
of the United States which declares
that the Employers may require the
Employees to renounce their union af
filiations as n condition of their em
ployment, is forreaching and permits
boycotting of lnhor with a vengeance.
Such decisions recalls a recent confer
ence of eminent lawyers on uniformity
of state laws where it was pointed out
ttiat too often Judges nullify the work
of tlie legislators, as well as of the bar
associations and other bodies that
slowly and patiently influence the law
making bodies, by giving diverse in
terpretations of statutes meant to be
uniform This difficulty is to he re
moved. as suggested by an eminent Jur
ist. by the following provisions that is
to lie inserted into every statute that
follows a model uniform drift.. "This
ii t shall lie so intPrpeted and construed
as to effectuate its general purpose to
make uniform the laws of those states
whii h enact it."
Such provision would be a guide and
direct the judiciary.
The question is not one of dictation
to tlie judiciary: it is one of giving ef
. t to laws and public policies where
uniform construction is barred by no
constitutional decline, or fixed and re
sonalde custom Thus would the law of
c states be given full force and effect
without tile necessity of construction
if the courts which have so often been
i clog on tlie enforcement of Just laws
md thwarted the will of the legisla
tures
'1 lie supreme court however is above
i reach "f such a provision which
perhaps is necessary, but in such de
sk ns as the recent one which seems
to strike at unionism among laborers
it would seem that even our great su
ptinn court needed some restrictions,
w l .cli however is all but impossible
r id through their decisions of what i?
and what is not constitutional, to the
in man. seems tainted with class bias
as mucli so as are the decisions of the
state court.

REINDEER
INDUSTRI
l
1 Government officials expect to set
Seward Peninsula the feeding ground
1 of millions of reindeer and to see tin
' day when the exporting of these ani
mals to other parts of the world will
he a really great Industry .
At the present time there are IS.fiiH
reindeer on the peninsula and its islands
and in all Alaska the number is approx
imately 90.000 .Tust outside the penin
sula a much greater number are grazing
in country which is tributary to Nome
VII the reindeer of Alaska, including
those on the peninsula, have been de
rived from a paltry one thousand an
imals that were shipped from Siberia
by Or. Jackson and W. T. T.opp of the
government service twenty years ago
Of the one thousand several died on
the way and many were killed by dogs
before the proper precautions had been
developed. Since that time the re
maining ones have multiplied at an
enormous rate until the one thousand
became nearly two hundred thousand
About 9u,ooo have been kilted for meat
and a simitar number ts distributed over
the territory.
They multiply more quickly than any
other animals of a similar kind and the
increase is at least 50 per cent, annually.
The average value of the deer 1s about
$2i and as some of the natives own
large herds of them it is evident that
the rearing of the reindeer will lie the
ultimate salvation of the Eskimos.
The meat of the deer is used at times
In Nome but the chief market for years
to come will he outside of Alaska, in the j
populous centers of the States and else- j
where. At present it is considered the;
wiser course to keep as many of the
' deer as possible for the purpose of ln
j creasing the supply but in a few years I
lit is apparent that the animals will in - j
crease to a numher that will make their
exportation a necessity. From that
time forward the native will he pro
vided with an e.xhu^istlbla source of
supply for all their wNnts and ttie rein
deer will almost certainly become the
foundation on which the civilization and
self reliance of the Eskimo will be built.
It seems to be evidenrVhat the herding
of the deer will cause the natives tu
! develops into an industrious and con
fortable people of herds and flocks.
At the present there are about 9lx
reindeer to every native on tlie penln- i
sula.
