STARVING ALASKA,

When former Senator Thomas Kearus
Of this State went to Alaska the sum-
mer just passing, he noted with keen
vision the paralyzing effect Of the Pin.
chot conservation policies (Which have
not been lifted by Secretary Fisher
upon that great and rich region. He
gave to the public through The Tribune
the most comprehensive and practical
analysis of the Alaskan situation that
we have seen 1t was a great resume
of tho disastrous effects of blight,ng
policy upon region which. left to it.
self, would quickly become a vast hive
Of productive and profitable industry
And now comes President w. C.
Brown Of the New York Central and
Hudson River railway system, who,
Just home from trip to Alaska, gives
out An interview in every respect con-
forming to the sentiments expressed by
Mr.. Kcarns. President Brown holds
that the present policy of the Govern
ment arrests all development in Alas
ka. He sees that the National admin
iobioI'oo hno Pi uceu ue'
barred by the conservation agitation
from continuing the development of the
Territory under old laws, while neither
it nor the conservstionists have been
able to force through Congress legis-
latioD substituting better system for
that which is now held unsuited to the
needs of the situation. The suspcu-
sion of development is not an argu-
ment for reviving methods whose pro.
priety has long been doubtful, but
emphasizes the desirability Of action
that will provide a satisfactory basis
for mining and railroad construction,
free of the danger of monopoly
All of which proves that in dealing
with Alaska the American people have
lost their usual good practical sense,
and have allowed lot of faddists
who really know nothing Mt all about
Alaska, to deal them wicked blow
under the fifth rib.
The Salt Lake tribune. [volume] (Salt Lake City, Utah) 1890-current, 1912-09-04
A FAIR SHOT.

Col. Roosevelt having stated that
Ethc Taft supporters have not the
slightest idea of electing Mr.. Taft, -
the New York Tribune fairly rejoins,
"Now. honest, Mr.. Roosevelt, have You
the slightest idea of electing your.
sclf'"
IT is a fair, center shot.
The impossibility of Col, Roosevelt IS
election must be evident 10 himself. as
it is to every one else of any political
,liscernment, Why. then, does he per-
sist in bis candidacyi There are TWO
supposable reasons.
First. TO humiliatc President Taft
through the hope of beating him out
Of second term in the Presidential
chair, to which, according to party
custom. the President is clearly en-
titled. For, the Colonel's hatred of
President Taft has taken on a form of
mania which supplauts all decent feel
ing, both official and personal.
Second, TO get revenge upon the
Republican party, which refused 10
nun dL lie Is
unmindful of the great rewards which
the Republican party has conferred
upon him. and remembers only its re.
fusal to yield TO his imperative de-
mand for yet further preference. His
discomfort is embittered by the sight
of Republican administration euforc-
ing the law against all trusts alike.
regardless of his classification of trusts
into "good and "bad,D the good
trusts being such ms will serve him, as
tho Harvester trust has done and ia
doing, and the bad trusts being such
as the Standard Oil trust, which re.
fused to put up an additional $780,
600 Mt his dcmand for his campaign in
! 1905
These are clearly the reasons tbe
controlling reasons. why Roosevelt per
sis's in his candidacy. And then there
is the hankering desire to open the
Panama canal himself next wear. and
also the overmastering desire for and
enjoyment of power. He is feverish
for applause; he languishes for the
llmelight Of the center of the stage:

REMINDER TO SUTHERLAND.

| The speech of Senator Sutherland OF
Utah. notifying FicePresident Sher
man of his nomination by. the Repub
lcsu National convention, does not
seem to have struck the country just
right. Thus, the Detroit Journal, a
strong Republican newspaper of the
independent type, comments upon it as
follows:
Senator George Sutherland OF Utah S
Sherman, a speech which by no stretch OF
imagination could be called dignified or
impressive. ended with these words;
I'VE appeal to the sober second thought
Of the American people,
words, They were first used by Martin
Van Buren, when seeking reelection In
1896. His admpistra ton had had to en-
dure the financial distress following jack
sons banking measures. The steps taken
by Van Buren were admirable states
manship, but they were not spectacular,
and he received no credit from his own
He appealed TO the sober second
thought OF the American people" What
We're the people doing In 1910? Running
after the siliiest , and emRtiiest ,,I,i cry ever
Tyler too" Van Burcn was discussing
craftsmanship like the statesman he was.
and the people voted for Harrison be-
cause he once lived In g. log cabin and
drank hard cider
But never mind; the possibility that
Sherman might be President can con-
sole Senator Sutherland. If none of
the candidates should have majority
in the electoral college, and if the
House of representatives should fail to
elect by March 4th next, the Senate
would have the electing of the Presi
dent; and then Senator Sutherland
would raise his voice again, into more
acceptable speech, or above all, be
might cast possible potential vote.
For in the Senate every Senator votes
as he will, whereas in the House, the
Representatives. from each State cast
but one vote as whole, and as the
States divide politically in the House,
Republicans %, Democrats 90, evenly
divided. 4, with 25 votes needed to
elect, the possibility of Sherman for
President is at least possibility.

lie schools. the rebuilding at govern
ment expense of all houses destroyed
during the recent fighting and gen
eral amnesty for all Albanian political
Offenders While it is true that spc-
cifc approval of all these points has
not been reported, il is probable that
they have been approved, since these
were the terms demanded in considera-
tion Of the cessation Of the fighting,
and the fighting has been stopped.
There are troubles also with tho Bnl-
earians, n massacre reported, and the
Turks warned of Bulgarian rcprisals.
On the border of Greece. also. there
has been fighting, and all the Grecian
officers on leave have been ordered TO
rejoiu their commands, a war with
Turkey by Greece just now would be
likely to have far more serious conse'
quences than resulted from the wholly
ineffective war Of 1897.
1t is clear case that the only thing
that prevents the dismembermept OF
the Turkish empire is the impossibility
of agreement among the European ma
tious on the division Of ''the spoils, -
But way ought to be found, and the
barbarous Turk should at least be
driven out Of Europe, so far as his rule
extends,
