Watkins and Parker are here, but
doing absolutely nothing besides wait
ing for the return of the other COM
missioners. At tomorrow nights con-
ference it is expected that the COM
mission will prepare a statement set
ting forth the purposes and results
or rather lack Of results Of the ten
days recess, and defining specifically
the position Of the commission regard
ing the recess.
Expert accountants of both sides are
going over the companies books with
a view Of eliminating as far as possi-
bic the contentious regarding the
mathematics of the controversy, and
particularly as 10 wage figures. This
was the ostensible primal purpose Of
the recess. The negotiations for am
icable adjustment of all the matters in
dispute set back the undertaking Of
this work five days. AS a consequence
the commission will have to busy itself
for a week or SO at some other feature
Of the case while awaiting a report
from the belated accountants.

This commission Is given the sole power Of leg islatlng in lll things for the people oi the district. his also proposed Co Teate three county governments ths in.tsuitorv.
 Wherein the proposed government has any advantage owe, Che regulation terri torial organization. is not made clear by the ylll,z publication. lt would not be less expensive than ths territorial form of government and |, seeks Co put the lsgisll- tion in the hinds ot the voters Of the dis trIct Thsss are ths points those opposed Co a territorial government attack. On the oths, hand thsTe are many objections to this scheme thl, would no, apply Co the regular territory. For instance, it would be impossible Co select six men who could fairly represent the whole district. The territorial legislature consists of two houses, Che territorial council Of I2 mem bers and Che house oi representatives oi ei. The number Is none too large for ihs pioper representation 0f an the varied h- terss,s and lrgely remote sections of Alaska. Another reason why the Valdez bin should not be urged, is that it would be mu,b sls.sr to get the regulation government than Co get any hybrid organ.z ,tion.
