that those Indians would be taken care of and their an-'
xient fishing rights restored to them and protected”?
Delegate Dimond—“Mr. Speaker, nobody can give any
legally enforceable assurance to the gentleman or to this
body. You must rely on the good sense and patriotism
of the people of Alaska, and you must rely upon their
selfishness, because enlighted selfishness alone will impel
them to take care of the Indians11.
Coincident with Mr. Dimond’s presentation, which
scouted either modus operandi or prospective system for
administration and dealing with the question of natives,
was the fact that the last Legislature failed to offer any
suggestions either as to manner of administration or its
ability to foot the bills for such administration.
Mr. Dimond went so far as to say that “81 per
cent of our taxes come from the fishing industry, and the
fishing industry is in a terrible shape. We have no re
source left to tax. The people of Alaska are not wealthy,
as is shown! by the picture I have given you!”
In his position showing that there has been unfair
ness of federal administration of the fisheries one heart
3y agrees. But there is opportunity under the new ad
ministration for these matters to be adjusted satisfactor
ily under the present system of administration without
trying an entirely new experiment having no outlined
background on which to proceed.
Thus the entire matter appears to be more one of
pointing out and insisting upon remedial action rather
than assuming a burden the Territory can ill afford to
carry on this added financial burden.
Mr. Dimond did suggest that one of the complaints
was centered in the annual importation of Orientals to
work in the fisheries. No remedy exists or is available
for this condition but normal pressure. Since Alaska is a
Territory it will remain open to aliens of all nations as
long as treaties are in operation.
Therefore the federal government is in a better po
sition to deal with this phase of the situation than the
Territory w7hich has no powers.
The entire matter of home rule does not gravitate
around the fisheries. There are lesser and equally im
portant matters with w7hich the Territory could deal, such
as furs and game, etc., which would be self-liquidating.
Mr. Faulkner’s position in the present instance arid
that of the Juneau Chamber of Commerce appear emin
ently proper. _

mill RAMPANT
ON LOCAL WATERFRONT,
BOATMEN COMPLAIN
Vandalism of a nature indicat-)
ing that it is not the work of juv- |
eniles has become so rampant
along the waterfront that boat
owners are afraid to leave their
craft beached overnight without
the possibility of their contents
being rifled, and actual vandalism
being inflicted.
One boat, on which its owner
spent many days painting and
conditioning, had the drop cano
py frame split, merely for the pur
pose of taking out the screws by
i which it was fastened. Instead of
i the screws being taken out with
i a screwdriver, the delicate' frame
was split and the angle iron
wrenched off.
The result of this wanton des
truction and petty thievery is that
Seward is gaining a reputation far '
from complimentary.
