Presidential Message on Alaska.

----00--~O-
On Saturday President Taft sent his
promised message to congress on
Alaska and the public domain in
general. In urging the construction
of government railroad, CON-
mission form of government and other
needed legislation for Alaska, the
president declared there was nothing
in the history OF the United States
which afforded such just reason for
criticism as the failure of the federal
government to extend the benefit of it's
fostering care to Alaska.
~ am not in favor of government
ownership where the same certainty
and efficiency of service can be had by
private enterprise," said the presi
dent "but I think the conditions
presented in Alaska are of such
character as to warrant the govern
ment, for the purpose of encouraging
the development Of that vast and re-
markable territory, to build and own
a trunk line railroad, which it can
lease on terms which may be varied
and changed to meet the growing
prosperity and development of the
territory.'
President Taft said there was little
likelihood that the Morgan-Guggen-
helm interests would open up rail-
road under the present conditions in
Alaska.
The president would have a CON-
mission form of government for
Alaska, one-half of the commission to
be elected and the other half
appointed by the president.
A leasing system was proposed by
the president for government coal and
phosphate lands in Alaska, as we'll as
in the United States.
The reclamation laws of the United
States should be modified, in the
opinion of the president, so that a
homesteader might be granted a
patent at the end of five years of cllti-
walton and three years of occupation.
The president also would relieve
homesteaders from the requirement of
occupation at time when the condi-
ton OF the land would make it
burdensome and difficult.
Following suggestion of Secre-
tary of the Interior Fisher, President
Taft declared in his message that the
control of water power sites should
remain in the national government
rather than be turned over to the
states. He would have the sites dis
posed of by direct lease from the
government, the rental to be used in
Improvement of the streams and for
the benefit of the local community
where the power site was located.
The president would give to the states
the right to regulate the rates at
which the converted power was sold.
The proper disposition of water power
sites has been one of the most serious
subjects discussed by conserva-
tionists. President Taft believes that
the leasing system he now suggests is
the best solution of the problem; that
it would mean honesty of administra-
tion and the prevention of abuses
which a monopoly of absolute owner
ship in private PERSONS or companies
would make possible.

Better Cut 1t Out.

Just word about Ed. E. Smith.
X x x
Why, Ed. Smith, in the senate, was
one of the best men Minneapolis ever
had there. If he had made success
of politics it does not mean that he is
crooked businessman. It is proof
that he succeeded where others failed,
Possibly he made politics a study.
The writer does not know, but the
writer admires success, and if that is
all that can be charged to Ed. Smith,
is it not better to cut it out? If We
have fault to find with someone let US
locate the trouble.-Le Sueur News.

A Guerilla and Bushwhacker.
The Pilot pointed out a year ago
that the usefulness of Congressman
Davis in congress has ended. To the
republican leaders in the house of
representatives he is persona non
grata and the democratic leaders in
the same body have no need of his
assistance as they have a majority
large enough to pass any bill they
Introduce. Mr.. Davis has become a
guerilla or bushwhacker in the house.
He can do no good for his party,
country or constituents. The voters
of the district, if they consider their
own interests, will send man to the
house next fall who will work and
vote with the democratic majority in
that body.-Faribauit Pilot. ...-
