THE LORDS SUBMIT.

AS confidently expected by those who
had watched the political developments
in Great Britain, the House of Lords,
by meager vote, it is true, and yet
by vote that is sufficient, accepts the
dictum Of the House Of Commons, and
shears itself Of its absolute veto power
on the legislation of the Commons, so
far as that legislation relates to fnan-
cial matters. The victory of the Com
mons is therefore complete in prin-
ciple; and yet the methods of exer-
cising the complete control by the Com
mons of revenue and taxation are
roundabout and tedious. The Lords
may still delay legislation for two
years, and may interpose temporary
vetoes from time to time on such legis.
lation; but the main thing is that the
Lords surrender the principle, and they
also surrender the power of designating
what is financial legislation to the
Speaker of the House of Commons
That official has a position and prestige
quite different from that of the Speak
er of our own House of Representa-.
tives. In his presiding capacity he is
not member of either party, but n
servant of the House, and in way he
is also its master. He has the power
of declaring adjournment. and in his
Office he is superior and inviolate in
way that is not dreamed of in the
Speakersbip at Washington. And so,
in submitting the determination Of
what is financial legislation to the
Speaker of the House of Commons, the
Lords, in fact, submit the question to
what is really an impartial tribunal.
The submission of the Lords was IN
questionably made, as pointed out here
tofore in these columns, as the avoid.
ance of one of two evils, Even the
''last dtchers' did not hope by their
resistance to win the main point in
controversy. This main point was lost
inevitably no matter what the House
of Lords. did; for. IL the "last ditch
crs - prevailed, the main point was
surely lost In the food Of new.mad,
| Lords that would override the old when
the Iipal vote came; 80 that there was
| nothing to win or to save on thai
But, By yielding to the Commons, the
Lords could Preserve their peerapes
from invasion by the common lot. To
| have creation of three hundred to
| five hundred now peers would so dilute
the nobility, hist there would be but
scaDt distinction between that and the
common folk. And so, out Of the
serimmaGc. the Lords have preserved
their cxclusivencss. but have lost their
| power. Yet, since their exclusiyeness
ia all that they could save. there car
be no question hut that. from their
standpoint, they chose the wiser part.

Alaska on the same terms as they have
gone into other newly settled regions
of the country heretofore. There seems
to be no reason why laws that have
worked so we'll hitherto in the settle
ment and development Of the United
States should not work Just as well in
the settlement and development OF
Alaska. As matter of fact, Alaska
was getting on very well until the con.
servation idea hit it and pnralyzed 1t.
Under conservation, however, Alaska
stood absolutely still for the ten years
from 1900 to 1910. because no one
was allowed to 90 In there. to use the
coal mines, or to do anything except
prospect and mine for gold. The ten
years paralysis is still upon Alaska
put there by the conservation fad, All
that is necessary is to lift that en-
barge, allow settlers, prospectora, and
capitalists to go into Alaska and open
and develop the country under the
laws that have proved sufficient in 9th
er parts of the country in the sue
cessive waves of emigration and de-
velopment.
What Alaska needs in particular is
Territorial form Of government, and
a free hand to get on and develop heI
riches, agriculture, mineral. timber, and
water power. just as new regions have
developed naturally hitherto in the
progressive settlement and opening Of
the public domain in the United States
from the first. The pretense that
Alaska needs something extraordinary
and especially that special and un
precodented assurances are to be held
out to capital, that it will be afforded
recognition and allowed to reap due
profits, is an abominable thing to take
root in Republic. Let capital takf
care Of itself; let the settlers take care
of themselves, giving each free hanc
as has been the rule in this country
from the first. That rule will work
just as well in Alaska as it has worked
in other portions of the Republic. Let
the people alone to proceed under th'
law, with lawful guarantees of pro
lection in their rights, and that is al
that is needed in Alaska, just as il i.
all that settlers and capital have need
ed at any time in opening the publ,
domain Of the United States.

ROOSEVELT ON ALASKA.

Col Roosevelt is out with a sledge
after President Taft on the latter 8
throwing open to entry of tract OF
public land ON Controller Bay. The
fact that he himself as President threw
open two tracts in way to create
monopolies, if any monopolies could be
created. and has been sharply criti'
cised for it, has evidently touched him
on the raw, and he undertakes to justi-
fly himself and TO condemn President
Taft. Tt will be easier for him to justify
however, than to condemn, for Presl-
served, and lawful way the same open
ing of land that President Roosevelt
did in a less cautious. less reserved,
and more monopolistic fashion. Roose'
velt threw open the lands to the Gug-
genheims and to Ryan just the size
tracts that they wanted, where there
could be no competition. President
Taft threw open alternate strips on
Controller Bay, guarding the water
front in such way that no monopoly is
possible So that, in doing practically
the same thing so far as allowing de"
velopment is concerned, President Taft
proceeded in much better and more
lawful way than did President Roose,
welt.
AS for the general question Of open
ing Alaska TO settlement, Col. Roose
welt seems to. consider that Alaska
bears some special relation to the peo'
pie at large and to the Nation differ
ent from the public domain elsewhere
and that the public rights need there
some particular guard and guide that
has not been needed heretofore in the
settlement Of the public domain of
the United States. 1t is difficult how
ever, to realize this point Of view as
practical proposition. The public do
main of the United States, wherever
it may have been, was of no value to
the people, or to the Nation, when left
in its natural state. It's value accrued
only when the people settled upon it
developed it, reduced the wilds to cul
tivation, and spread civilization and
wealth wherever the settlements were
made. OF what value to the natior
was Kentucky, Indiana, Ohio. Illinois
or any Of the unsettled portions OF
the country until the pioneers occupied
and redeemed it? Of what value was
any part of the country west of the
Mississippi river to the public unit
settlers came upon it, opened the land
aud developed the resources' In like
manner, of what value is Alaska to the
people of the United States, unless II
can be utilized7
The assumption seems to be al
through that immense capital is neces
sary to reclaim Alaska, to open settle
ments and industries, and develop re
sources; and President Taft and Col
Roosevelt are at one on the proposition
that capital entering this field ought
to receive assurances of due reward
But, that is opening line of specia
treatment of capital that has never
been opened heretofore in this couu
try. Capital always comes In when
the pioneers open the country; and
capital is always willing to take It's
chances under the laws and practices
of this country as they have existed
from the first. Capital and capitalistic
combinations are ready to go into
