ALASKA AS A STATU
We hear the first gentle rappiug
of Alaska tile door of state
hood. l"he» have Alaska State
hood clubs in the North-country.
Ouo 01 these is located at Val
de* The V'aldez club has pro
gressed so fax as the promulgation
cf the outline of a state constitu
tion. It embodies a good healthy
aeuwud thai Alaska be admitted to
the American Union as one of the
sisterhood of states.
Tl<e demai.d is piodteated on the
issertiou that the people of Alas
ka are in *he l'ulleit sense quali
lied and worthy of all the rights,
privileges and immunitiesa guar
anteed by the constitution of the
I'uited otates to the people of the
several states of'he Union; further
t.n: these rights, privileges and
immunities can bo luily secured
aud enjoyed only by admission in
to the Union on an equality with
th- other states.
1' is urged with force aud sound
re»ts«ii that the material develop
ment, population, eductional and
moral attainments, commercial im
portance and the unquestionable pa
triotism of the Alaskan inhabitants
entitles the territory to that which
the Vahies club demands. And
agn>u, as restir.g on the foregoing
reasons. Alaskans should have a
voi:-- in the making of federal law
t> whkh they are amendable, and
that the rl^ut so ilaimctl is in
alienab.e, and not enjoyed in Alas
ka at ihe pr-Jsent tinio, ao it should
bo, according to the intent and
provision of the federal constitu
tion.
1: is urg;\l further that the ad
mission of Alaska into the Union
as a slate would be as advantag
eous to the pecple of the several
st' tes as to the residents of that
territory This assertion stands
on i<<- own feet without any sup
porting a.gumont, and perhaps it I
ir>eils none. The appeaj based on j
the achievenKuts of the Alaska
people tarries mora forcibly. It is
cocteuded that these people by
years ot arduous Industry tuid pion
eering have by this time achlevod
and a'tained to all things re
quisite to guarantee worthy and
honorable citizenship, and on
thu* count there will be small
I chance for disagreement. ' They
h.'.ve accomplinhad wonders in that
country. A3 the newest race of
i Argonauts they have written his
tory quite as splendid as any of
their predecessors of the same type.
i* is not at all a matter of sur
prise toat the Alaskan; population
should hegtn to loolk toward state
hood; nor is it a matter of
strained conclusion that state
hood for them is inevitable. If
we amdit 'hat much, as in reason
! we miiSt, it may folldw that the
the time to begin the development
toward full-fledged Americanism for
Alaska is now.—Portland Telegram.
