GOVERNOR CLARK's VIEWS

Some of the uplifters had occasion recently to interrogate the governors regarding their views on various things, and especially as to conservation. Among those thus interrogated was Governor Clark of Alaska. It is not many months since Governor Clark was correspondent in Washington, and this may lend interest to his assertion that what Alaska needs now is not SO much conservation as development. The new governor has been in office long enough to have found out, so he says, that Alaska s resources are very great, but at present scarcely prospected, much less developed, and in the inter- ests of tle people he "governs, " to 'GGse use the ordinary but rather inaccurate term, there should be some plan adopt ed whereby they can get out t'ee coal, which, in many cases lies beneath their feet; get title to lands valuable for az. riculture and grazing; secure the tim Der which clothes the mountains and valleys; and in general avail themselves of the wealth nature has placed there for man to enjoy. The secretary of the interior has informed congress, (and he is backed by the geological survey), !, that SlOO,000 is needed to survey agri. cultural lands in Alaska.

Washington has been the scene of numerous uplift conventions during the past few months Never, it seems, was there so much attention paid to the bet torment of the world and humanity as at present. It would be tiresome to even enumerate all the efforts being made in that direction. Some of them have been referred to in this column from time to time, and that space has not been given to all of them indicates rather that there was not enough space available rather than that all were not worthy of notice. The convention to promote uniform state legislation had enough subjects before it to fill a book in their discussion. The governors dis cussed many things along somewhat similar lines There have been cOnven- tions' for improving the waterways and for conservation of almost everything out of doors. And now Washington is the fOuntainhead of an organized move ment to force lower prices of the ne cessities of life and last week the ma tiOnal board of trade met here and took D nearly everything advocated by the

 AS DEPUTY Michigan Man Accused of Forgery, Embezzlement
 and Desertion

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, January go. Sought by his own father, for three years sheriff of Michigan county, Roy E. Pettik, university graduate, and alleged to be an embezzler-forger and deserter from the United States navy, was arrested here last night upon a chance meeting on the street with one of his fathers deputies.

CONGRESSMAN MooRE's TASK

J. Hampton Moore, member of con- gress from Pennsylvania. has set him. self task which will probably keep him busy during the remainder of the session. He introduced q bill aimed at the cold storage business> It provided Tor semi-annual clearance of all food products kept in storage in the District of Columbia. The idea was that goods ought not to be stored for longer per. Tod because of the belief that they might deterioriate in quality, and also because 1t was the belief of the con gressman that the cold storage men helped to create an artificial scarcity and so caused prices to enhance. The investigation and hearing on the bill was referred to Mir. Moore s sub-com- mIttee of the District of Columbia com mittee. About the first thing the sub committee did was to invite Secretary of Agriculture Wilson to appear and tell 1t what he had discovered about cold storage in some rather extensive and exhaustive investigations he had caused to be instituted The daily dis. patches have referred with some de- tail to what he is supposed to have said, (fOr he was heard behind closed doors), and it is understood that he declaimed any knowledge of the effect of cold storage methods on prices but that he did contribute valuable infor- nation on the, proper methods to pre- pare goods for refrigeration and the length of time they would keep in that condition. To be very brief on this subject, it is understood that the secre. tary of agriculture said that if in good condition when stored, goods would keep practically unchanged for six months, and even longer. The investi- gations on which the secretary's testi- mOny was based are not yet completed. When they are, the results will probab. Iy-be very interesting to the public gen. orally, as well as to the business com. munity. The investigation contemplates the probing of the subject to the bot, tom, with the aid of marketmen, farm CTS, cold storage experts and in fact everyone who can throw light on a somewhat difficult subject. In the end it may be possible to tell just what causes high prices.

STEEL RAILROAD TIES

All good cOnservatiOnlsts will take real delight in the report made by Consul General Robert P. Skinner of Hamburg, that the use of steel rail road ties has made great ifcaG1~y in several European countries; notably in Germany, which is one of the most pro gressive and enterprising countries in the world. It is not thought that there will be any shortage of timber for Ger man railroads in the forests of Ger many, Russia and Hungary for many years, but the steel tie is growing in favor and especially is this the case on certain kinds of ground, the steel tie being better adapted to the solid ground generally found in middle and southern Germany, and on frozen ground. The growth of the steel tie business is shown by the statistics. In 1888 the steel tie industry made use of LOGO tons of ingot iron and steel ties. In ten years the business had practi' cally doubled. In 1905 the quantity of steel ties reached 332,200 tons, and in 1907 it reached 493, 800 tons.

NO LEGAL NATIONAL HOLIDAYS

The discussion over the celebration of General Robert E. Lees birthday brought out the fact that there are no national holidays made so by federal statute, not even Independence day, Memorial day, Thanksgiving day or Christmas. The reason is that congress has no right to legislate for the states, and when it is desired there shall De a national holiday like Thanksgiving, for instance, the president does not or der that it be observed; he merely rec ommends it's observance. The presi- dential proclamation makes it legal holiday in the District of Columbia and the territories, but that is all. That is one reason why congress is not in frequently in session on what are gener- ally supposed to be national holidays, much to the surprise of strangers who are made aware of that peculiar habit of congress for the first time. However, it is customary for the pOstoflice de. pertinent and the treasury department to observe state holidays as far as pos sible, and perhaps that is why permis- sion was given to close the custom house at Newport News, Virginia, on the birthday of General Lee, "for as long a time as public business will per. init. - Senator Heyburn made the or der the occasion for official inquiry.
