UNDERSTANDS LESSON

Providence Journal: 1--WE came to
see a little place called Alaska, but
discovered an empire; thus Attorney
General Wickersham Is quoted in out
line as respecting his brief survey of
the Tar corner of the country in ac-
cordance with a commission from the
president. Upon his arrival home with
the secretary of commerce and labor,
he will probably be interviewed more
exhaustively than was convenient at
the Alaskan port where he took steam
er. His personal inspection has caused
him to realize more and more the i'm
portance of opening the coal lands,
and making provision for railroad
transportation. 1t is passing strange
that Mr.. Wickersham had so meager
an idea of Alaska. 1t would be thought
that with his general knowledge, and
considering the Importance Of the sub
iect since he became a cabinet officer,
he would have acquired such informa-
ton as to have prepared him to look
for not merely "a little place"
Alaska has been written about, de-
scribed statistically and pictured lib
orally of late OF course, the attorney
general has been a busy official. stu
he might shrewdIy have surmised that
Alaska was worth while since there
was such a bother about it, right in
the neighborhood of the department of
Justice Heads were falling, snakes
were being killed. Congress was in a
turmoil, the White House itself was
shaken-all on account OF Alaska. In
deed. exhibits are in existence to sug-
gest that Mr. Wickershan1's acquaint-
ance with Alaska in It's political and
legal aspects at least was occasionally
intimate. Thus he undertook to assist
the president in reaching findings in
favor of the secretary of the interior
findings which purported to put an end
to the controversy, but which, in fact,
added fuel to it. So, also, an important
document relating to 1t became lost
in the files OF the department of JUS
tice, threatening scandal

and legal circumstances which have
