The railroads are beginning al.
ready to hedge against the ninety
day trial agreement OF the two'cent
fare, which promises to knock out
their contention that the low rate
is confiscatory. Assistant Attorney
Railey of the Missouri Pacific
thinks they were handed a gold
brick in the ninetyd day trial; that
it comes at the wrong season. He
SAYS that at this season there Is
fully three times the customary
amount of travel due to vacation
trips andi, tourist parties; that
money seems easy. and the people
are OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES to take
trips which they have been deny
ing themselves, consequently the
receits of the next ninety days
should not, in al spirit of fairness
to the roads, be..made the basis of
a decision as to the effect the two.
cent rate will have upon the income
from passenger traffic. But in
this will be observed the admission
that people are persuading them

HOW IT LOOKS OUTSIDE

Formerly only 8 few Of the papers here In Alaska mentioned the attitude oiGovernor Hoggatt towards the rights of the ter tory. Bye and bye thenum- Der increased until practically all of the papers of the territory were srrayed against him. The governor then plead ed that a newspaper war was being waged against him to hurt him at Washington and be was bitter against the papers Of Alaska.
 Now, however, the fight has been taken up against him by the papers of the outside and it's interesting to i'm aglns just what plea he win advance for their being untayorab's to his way of thinking.
 The article taken from the POst-In- telugencer below is 8 fair statement Of where the governor is wrong and, al- though this newspaper had intended to make but sclnt reference to the gover- nOr's policy hereafter the Post-IntelIi- gencsr's article is too good to overlook and we publish 1t. That paper says:
 "A fuller statement of Gov Hoggatt's recent utserancgs at Dawson, on the subject of g change 10 AIaska's form Of government credits him with saying 8 territorial form Of government "may be a wise form" when the time comes to adopt 1t. but, ''aher carefully weighing the matter" be has reached the con. cIusion that che time has not yet arrived for the change. The majority Of peo. pie Of Alaska take the contrary view.
 Gov. Hoggatgs statement that "the newspaper campaign is desig=ed 10 de- stroy my influence with the national government" is unworthy Of him. To his own admission that the people of Alaska are earnestly supporting the campaign for local seIt-goyernment, be may ind an explanation of why news papers friezdIy to Alaska, are opposed to bis views, for the newspapers believe, not unreasouably, that the people Of AL aska, including two delegates spscid- cally instructed oa the precise issue, gre less apt to be wrong in this psrticu- lar matter than Gov. HoggalL and the corporations.
 When Gov. HoggaJt admits that the people O, Alaska desire 9 territorial form Of goveromenl, and urges at the same tlme that such a form Of govern me0G would not now be good for them, he says, 10 effect, that American citi. zens of lAIaska aren9t intelligent enough to know their own needs, but must look 10 him, or some other person Superior intelligence, for guidance and protect ion.
 Surely, Gov HoggsLc does DO: mean  to say say'such thi0g of bis intelligent and loyal couu.ryuen Io the northern country. IT he thinks any sueh thing of Alaska1s, he sa0u d get closer to them and know them better. Perhaps II he knew them better he would be more inclined to trust them with the management of their owo affairs. Al sskaDs know wha. they want. They know whs. they need They know what they must have in order to make the best possible use of their intelligent energies and r.ch opportunities.
 ItGoy. HoggaJE will get a bit closer to Alsskans, they may be able to con- vince hun that Alaska is even now ready for the just constitutional powers the American government has always conferred upon territories in like cir Cumstances, anI that's what the gOver- nor ought 10 do.

sUNNYsIDE MEMORIAL.
Irrigation Age Comments On the
Peoples Requests.

Says Irrigation Age: The Sunny
side. Washington, Water Users as
sociation has presented to the
Secretary of the Interior Garfield 4
memorial setting forth the ideas OF
that association as regards the Sun
l.yside Irrigation project now undec
way. 1t is needless to say the me-
mortal also voices the grievances OF
the settlers and mem bers of the asso-
citation. There are. several para
graphs of which consideration is
asked Practically all the land un-
der the project is private property
and it is shown that the conditions
of irrigating the public domain do
hot obtain. Nor is there any short
age of water which the government
has been asked to remedy. 1t was
understood when the water users
association was formed in 1906 that
the government would install pump
ing plants to water certain lands ly-
ing below gravity low. Now the en-
gineers in charge of the project have
apparently seen fit to decide that NO
pumping plants would be installed
and have told the settlers that the
only way to obtain such plants was
TO club together and construct them. |
leasing the water right from the gov
eminent. The association maintains
that the settlers are not financially
in a position to do this and that the
erection of plants can only be made !
by capitalists or corporations who
for water. The second point brought |
out in the memorial is in regard to |
the laterals. 1t was understood that |
the government would pursue pol |
icy of building and maintaing Cor
Of maintaining where already built) |
system Of laterals leading toor as
nearly as possible to each forty-acre
tract On the lands possessing water
lights from the old company 1t |
would not be economical or feasible
to build new laterais nor would 1t be
an easy matter to proportion the
cost Of laterals on the new lands
among the settlers of the old. 1t is
asked that the government take
charge OF laterals watering old as
we'll as new lands and that some
plan be devised whereby an equitable
division of the cost of construction
may be made Another complaint
and one, by the way, which comes
from many other parts Of the irri-
gated section OF the country, is that
forty-acre tracts are not sufficiently
large to allow a farmer to make a
good living, and the association pc
titions for an extension to S0-acre
tracts. Complaint is also made that
the government is forcing certain
settlers on the lowlands to reclaim
their land twice by the turning of
the over-supply of water from the
canal on to their lands, leaving the
settlers to drain the lands and TO
face the question of wiping out the
effects OF the alkali brought down
by these food waters 1t is asked
that the government take some ac-
ton to drain the lowlands Of the
valley. The memorial respectfully
suggests that the people OF the valley
who are practical irrigators and
/ farmers, and who will ultimately pa
tie cost OF the project, have some
voice in the work. And it is IN
/ doubtedly true that better results
could be obtained IN many places If
people directly interested be allowed
with government projects.
