ALAsxAs FIRST LEGISLATURE,

Judging by the first reports of the territorial election for Alaska's first legislature. We feel safe in saying that representative men will com pose that body. And when We use the term representative" We do not mean that they are composed of the "capitalistic class" or that they rep resent special interests" On the contrary. We believe. that all inter ests Of the territory will be faith fully and fairly represented. In other words we think that the people of Alaska will be given square deal And that is all that could. or should be asked.
 The new legislature will be com posed Of miners. merchants, couple Of lawyers. and a fisherman, the strictly professional class being in the small minority. Therefore We are to assume that a good beginning has been made. and from personal knowledge of the men who will make up the first legislature. We have no fear Of the results.
 Specifically speaking. most of the tickets in the different divisions were composed of excellent men. who would have made frst-class legisla' tors. and who would have discharged their duties with an eye single to the territory's best interests.
 The opening of Alaska's first leg islature and the work that it's mem bers shall do will be watched with great interest, not only in Alaska, but outside of 1t.

ALASKA CLIMATE.

In Alaska they are discussing the question whether there has been a permanent change in climatic condi- tions in that territory. Last winter was one of unprecedented mildness. the more notable for the fact that in the central portion of the conti- nent and along the Atlantic seaboard the winter was one of unusual sever ity. Now the report comes that the present autumn season is even milder than that of last year. Warm days have continued even in the interior of Alaska and the British Yukon well along toward the middle of October, a time when. in former days, the country was sealed by ice.
 Along the coast it is reported that ancient glaciers receded during the past year with heretofore unheard-ot rapldity, their reduction in size be- ing so marked that, at the present rate Of diminution. 1t is but matter Of few years before they will entirely disappear each summer.
 It is hardly worth while to ad- vance any theory Of permanent eli matic changes on the experience of a single year. or even two or three years. But there are already data to warrant some inquiry into the cause. if there is indeed a cause which promises to have a continuing effect.
 Weather observers and scientific men generally are never inclined to accept theories based upon the con tention that there has been perma- nent change in any of the great nat
The Alaska daily empire., 1912-11-07

ural phenomena, so they dismiss ofr- hand the theory that there has been a change in the course of the black current of Japan, bringing 1t nearer the coast, thus moderating the win ter temperature of Alaska. But the numerous and severe volcanic dis turbances on the coast of Alaska during the past years might possibly have had such an effect Seattle Post.Intelligencer,

SQUEEZING THE WATER
 FROM sTocKs.-WILsoN

Nobody proposes to take these trusts and squeeze the water out of them. All that anybody proposes is to put them on their mettle and tell them that if they can carry that wa ter they are welcome to carry it; but that they have got to earn what get rid of it in ways which they themselves are at liberty to devise; gut that they have got to earn what they get, and not get 1t by monopolis. tic agreements and by throat com- petition. That will settle the Ques. tion of watered stock in a genera tion, and 1 do not believe it will run out SO suddenly as to drown auy- body.-From Gov Wilson's speech at Colorado Springs.

STDELIGHTS


 It is to bs hoped that the Democrat ic party will take its great victory modestly. Governor Wilson has set the example. Colonel Bryan, to whom more than any other man the president-elect owes his success, has also spoken modestly The people have taken the Democratic party at their uttered word. They have ex- pressed their willingness to give the Democracy another trial The peo' pie wanted change They have got it. And they will watch the party closely and hold 1t strictly account able to its promises. Those promises have been solemnly made and the strict performance of them will most indubitably be demanded. If they are broken the party will return to the wilderness and feed upon the husks for andother twenty years, or forever.
