between 'the Territorial and Federal agencies Territory. all the navigable wafers, cf She fish, the gs.me line! the wild fur bearing Eniniiii 1 under the jurisdiction and control of the Federal with Territorial dcvelopr-iest dependent or. for financial assistance mUiicn dofiirs per it would be cDWise fcr the prsplv cf to tEter into- acrimonious disputes with the uuihorities at the national Capital. Tt jhail, therefore, be my aim to establish and maintain the friendliest relations wiih she Federal Government and its several agencies in at the same tine I upon all these what I conceive to be the-wishes of as as for the benefit of the majority cf the people of the Territory. At the earliest, opportunity -I shall seek such amendment oJ toe Organic Act as will not only us as much ribrae as was invariably granted ether Territories, but which will enable us to gradually assume more and' more of thf functions of government until fuil Statehood I propose to cooperate widi the Bureau of Fisheries in securing- the best possible fishing regulations, and ir.taad to do all in my povrer to secure such legislation as will leave the fisheries cf open only to the bona fide residents of the Territory irhererer that is practical and where, by such jxflicv, the settlement of the Territory can materially stimulated.

I'shall also recommend that the resident the River be authorized to engssa in siich wereial flsr.ing jr. ths river as Trill not apnreciabJy the prppagatior; of salmon. I commend ihe Bureau of Forestry fo- '-s def-nina- to have the timber within its teeping ajar-uTactured into articjcs AJ1 who have made substantial Jmproverr.r-nt on land or residence purposes should be given a deed to whatever ajey improve, occupy and use. The quasi communistic Astern at present -practiced by the Government is bad in principle anil shouW be abandoned. Planniwr fe an "inevitable prerequisite to the stability of the population and the permanence of industries.

Every effort shouW, therefore, be made to assist experienced farmers in r.etUing on and starting the utilization of our agricultural and grazing land. The ircnsthictlor of the International Highway, so -caBed; is a worthy 'project which promises much'for the coontFy 2nd should be grven ample support as soon as defiflitc steps are taken by the Canadians to us at the boundary line. The foltsss cooperation tt-ffl be given Ihe Alaska Head -Commission In effort to secure the largest possible ap-' proprtatioa for roads and trafis. The of Forestry and Bureau cf Public Roads should be given full authority to use tie funds at their dispossl build trails instead of roads wherever such course seems the' wiser. Every fair and humanitarian reason bespeaks for the native Indian population the Jdndliest and most helpful consideration by ths public anil the Government.

The opportunity jf those races for acquiring a'practical education and for earning a living is of foremost importance and-must be supplied whenever and-wherever'it is reasonably possible to do so. I shall urge increased appropriations fcr the establishment and maintenance of industrial schools snd medical attention for toe native population. Both governmental and private employers should be induced to ijive these people I believe that the people of Alaska, when entitled to litigate any questions in dispute with any of the departments at Washington, should be authorized for Mat purpose in the courts of Alaska instead of betas compelled, as now, to go to the Capital to do so. The present order tantamount to a denial of the right to submit such disputes to. the courts and to encourage autocratic attitudes by the various bureaus.

In consonance frith this view I also.believe that the War Department should be relieved of the burden of adjudicating private rights to the water front or to navi- aable waters, a function which does not belong to it, but which the peculiar conditions prevailing in Alaska have forced it tn assume. I also believe that owners of fish traps and trap sites rhould be protected in such ownership against all inter- Jerence except by the Government, and to that end should receive leases for their trap sites for a fixed period, subject always to revocation and whatever rules and regulations the Government maj see fit I believe in eliminating from the public life all those individuals who make a business of stirring up antagonism against industrial institutions for the sake of getting a hand-out. In addition to the foregoing I shall, advocate: 1. Repeal of all laws and revocation of'all'regulations nrotecting useless sea fowls or acquafic- animals which are destructive of fish and flsh eggs. 2.

Salary 'for United States 3. Establishment, of stations in all isolated communities of importance. A. Regular-and more frequent mail facilities for the settlements west of Cook Inlet. Additional Coast Guard ships fully equipped to give aid to the fishing population during' fishing season.

Increased force for the Federal Mining Engineer's office to enable-him to examine and-report on-mining-prospects and advise prospectors. of harbors for the -fishing, fleets at points. 8: Erection of public'buildings at the several places where now urgently needed. Erection of bridge connecting Juneau. and Douglas Island if.

the same can-be done at such, cost as will render the anderto king practical. Establishment of naval air ports at all strategic" points, and -to army and naval planes stationed in the Territory at all-times for -use in emergencies. 11. Acceptance of and support the various recommendations made by the Governor in his last'report. 12.

BiKht of appeal in all criminal "cases. JOHN RTJTSTGAKD, Republican Candidate for Delegate to Congress.
