GOVERNOR O.KS INCORPORATION •
A letter recently received by Mr. W. J. Erskine frori Governor Gmening in
Juneau expresses his thdugbits relative to incorporation 'Of the village of Kodiak
into a city of the first class'. It states MI vory eincoroly hope that the vote
f,or incorporation will bo affirmative bscauso it will bo extreriely difficult to
justify any territorial or Federal aid in behalf of Kodiak unless .the people of
Kodiak themselves exhibit some sense of responsibility, and are willing to make
some reasonable contribution to tho solution- of their own problems and in boha,lf
of their own welfare. Kodiak, at present, is by far tho largest community in
Alaska which is not incorporatedM. ,•
It is known that there are a few obstructionists to this progressive move, |
but during the next woek or two, the Mirror will ondosvor.to present to its readers;
a cross-section of viewpoints on this current topic. It is our; thought that those
persons who are opposod to incorporation, aro laboring under-illusions or miscon- I
jCeptions of what it really moans. Wo will bring you j
jstatemonts from various professional and businessnon j
and then you nay be able to clarify any misunderstand j
ing you nay have. Statenonts and/or lottors will be I
appreciated fron our roaders and wo will publish then|
in an open forun.
