Alaska Cnal-

Governor Clark of Alaska is doubt
less correct when he says that the
problem of territorial progress de-
ponds largely for it's solution the
opening of the vast Alaskan coal
mines, and right again in urging upon
congress the necessity of enacting laws
that will make this possible. 1t is not
necessary for the government to re-
linquish its possession of this valua-
BILE property, nor to give unlimited
rights of exploitation to outside cap
ital, but it is important to offer some
inducements for capital to go in there
and help open up this great industry
Between the extremes of our conserva-
ton policies there is a medium some
where through which this could be
done.
According to geological surveys we
have 1900 square miles of coal in
Alaska. Scientists say the supply Will
equal the demand for 5000 or 5000
years at the present rate of consump-
ton. If this be true, or anywhere
near the truth, it is far-fetched for us
to talk of conserving these resources
for future generations when the need
OF more and cheaper fuel is so urgent,
not alone in Alaska, but in the states
as we'll Governor Clark declares that
the lack of cheap fuel is the strongest
adverse factor in the problem of the
territOry's advancement.
From a political, economical and in
dustrial standpoint a do-nothing policy
is ineffective. In the last year Alaska
imported 100000 tons of coal, part
from the United States and part from
other countries, in spite of its own
limitless natural resources. No pri-
vate enterprise would countenance
such methods Of doing business. or, II
It did, It would soon have to go into
bankruptcy. There is no danger, of
course, Of this government going into
bankruptcy, but there is a very live
danger of its neglecting Alaska's de-
velopment too long.
President Taft, awake to the Alas
kan situation. insists that steps must
be taken toward forming a govern
ment for the territory at the coming
session of congress, and this, of course
contemplates its industrial develop
ment. 1t was for this specific reason
that the president sent two of his cab.
met officers to Alaska during the sum,
mer to study the territory and its re,
sources. It is to be hoped that he
will have the necessary cooperation

lem in the interest of national good.

Why have the democrats changed
their description Of that national
gathering to be held in Baltimore,
first announced as a conference Of the
conservatives to lay plans for reorga-
nizing the party and adopting new
policies. Have they seen a light that
points to danger in thus excluding the
Bryan faction this early in the proceed
ings They now declare that It is not
to be a conference at all, that it is not
even to be political in character, but
simply a Jubilee meeting for celebrat-
ing the recent victories the party
achieved and that It is to include every
section and faction of the party; just
an old-fashioned love-feast, in fact.
why this change? Have the eastern
democrats walked to the fact that they
were taking the first step toward max
ing a very tactless blunder in gratui-
tously defying Mr. Bryan and his radi-
cal friends, or have they gone on with
their original program and decided to
make it merely a change in name?
Nearly every comment on the recent
democratic victories has conceded
their significance in relation to the
1912 election with the one proviso,
that the party did not live up to Gen
eral Grants prediction, that lit can
always be depended on to do the
wrong thing at the wrong time. -
Evidently with little retrospect, the
democrats who arranged this confer
ence have seen 1t in that light. 1t is
little early to challenge the Bryan
wing of the party to a finish fight, to
| do its worst. True, the Nebraskan
and his side seem to be down and out,
but nevertheless they will have a few
votes to cast hereafter and each vote
will count for one Evidently the old
guard has let it's better counsel prevail

nice pastime, but, everything con-
sidered, it is one part of the program

Still More High Finance.

The mayor and city council has just
been served with formal demand
upon them to levy a special tax in an
amount sufficient to pay some $685.,
900 of judgments secured by the
Omaha Water company against the
city. If this special levy is made, as
it doubtless will have to be, it will
mean an extra tax burden of several
mills on top of the city and school
leVies, which by themselves are as
heavy as they should be. This, how
ever, is merely another example of the
game of high finance as played by our
wonderful Water board. To embar-
rass the water company ard bear the
market for its securities the Water
board refused payment on hydrant
rental and failed to raise the money
from year to year for the water fund
to meet this outlay, with the conse-
quence that the bills have gone to
judgment with interest at Z per cent
What is equally to the point Is that
while part of the 1925, 900 is for water
supplied previous to the appraisers
award, from which the city's title is to
date in the purchase proceedings, an
other part of it is for water supplied
after that date, so that the city, wiz
be levying a special tax to provide
earnings to Offset against the judg-
ment in the specific performance case.
Our Water board flnanciers could
hardly have managed it to give the
city and taxpayers the short end of It
in a more artistic manner.

WHAT HAPPINESS DOES.
Baltimore Sun,


This is what happiness does-it takes
A face where the wrinkles are and makes
A velvety roseleaf out of the cheek
That had grown so pale and so sad and
And into the eyes where the crow's-fset
meet
An inlaid smile. with sunbeam sweet,
This is what happiness does IL brings
To an outward heart the imperial wings
or hope and beauty till DER It's head
Those wings to the blue, sweet sky are
spread,
And the soul SO gloomy and dark with care
Is songbird skimming the golden air.
That is what happiness does-one hour
In a wOman's heart will create flower
OF love 50 tender and sweet and true
1t would seem like a whole world flooding
you
with light and laughter and joy reborn
Like an April flower in a fairy morn
This is what happiness does-it shows
A toilworn hand that there lives a rose
Somewhere for It in the life bereft,
That hope with its holy cheer IL left
And dark though the way may often seem
1t is not dark. but a golden CLEAN.
This Is what happiness does-just try
To fill home life with II by and by
That has given its heart and It's soul for
you
And watch how the lips that were pale turn
dew
with sparkling glory Of youth again,
And II costs so little, just try it, men!

Paradoxical as 1t may seem in view
