THE LESSON OF ALASKA.

The Alaska Railroad Commission has been dined and wined at the Arc, tic Club. Seattle. and. no doubt. have told their audience all about Alaska, as viewed from their standpoint. of course. The gentlemen have not tipped their hand" as to the nature Of the report or the recommendations they will make to Congress. as the result Of their investigation Of Alaska land transportation problems
 Major Morrow. however, seems to have talked good sense-as was to have been expected-and he uttered some truths which Alaskans may do well to ponder over. He said Alas kans must present united front and he warned them against sectional jealousies: and he emphasized the fact that the pioneers Of Alaska need ed encouragement
 This is fair speaking and it is truthful speaking. The trouble with Alaskans-if We are to believe our critics-is that We never know what we want; that we are never united ; that what pleases one section of the country displeases another; that what one man asks another opposes. and so on.
 There is truth in part in this. We have been pulling on separate strands Of the same rope. and we have lacked unity of effort and hence our work has not borne the best fruit.
 No man, however. unless he knows Alaska thoroughly and comprehen- siyely. is competent to judge either Alaskans or conditions in Alaska.
 The man on the coast knows little or nothing about the interior or the Boring sea country, unless he has wis tied them and studied them. On the other hand the same Is true of the resident of the interior He may know that region intimately, but his ignor- ance of all other sections may be pro found. simply because he has never seen them except at long distance.
 Alaska is a country of magnificent distances-an empire witnin itself and it would be strange indeed if the needs and requirements of the diff. ferent geographical divisions were not dissimilar. These are a few things that some of our best critics do not know. but they should learn.

THE UNsREAKAsLE TURK

The Turk is still in the Hast ditch," fighting grimly. He does not like the Bulgarian demand that he take himself across the Dardanelles to Asia-the place from whence he came nearly five hundred years ago. He was in Europe nearly a half-cen- tury before Columbus discovered America. He was then a victorious conqueror-a militant power that de- fled defeat. But the Turk long ago reached the zenith of his power, The terror that the crescent flag created is no more, except when 1t is accompanied by a force of soldiers in the towns and hamlets of his sub jugated provinces. He has become a by-word and a term of reproach among most civilized peoples. And he fights doggedly. consistently for the lands that his sword won for him. for the provinces that he has glutted with blood.
 The European powers are not his friends. He has none, save those to whom territorial or financial control is the impelling cause of interest in his present veal and future position. The interest they have in him, too, may be somewhat sharpened by the fear that he has not property enough in Europe to satisfy all the expect ant heirs.
 No matter, however, where our sympathies lie. the plight of the Turk is now a most interesting one. And it's consequences may indeed be far reaching so far as the map ond the future history of Europe are con- cerned. The interest in the outcome of the Balkan war is worldwide Fresh from the conclusion of a costly and bloody war with Italy in Africa, the Turk had scarce breathing time to prepare for still fercer conflict with the Balkan States-Montenegro, Bulgaria, Servia and Greece. And anathematize him as We will, We must concede that he is making a gallant, if losing, fight

BUSINESS AND GOVERNMENT.

Business-big and little business seems to be pursuing the even tenor of it's way, just as 1t was doing prior to the late election. Those people who were in the doldrums and were wont to indulge in jeremiads because of the political outlook. have recover ed and they, too, are going about their business. It may be considered a hopeful sign of the trend of affairs.
 Business should de divorced from government and business men gener. ally made to realize that the belief that government support is neces' sary for their existence is a supersti' tion-a fetish that limits their power of vision of their own abilities, and has been leading them away from the great possibilities of a developed for eign trade-a trade that with our in creasing and also matchless facili' ties and workmanship. must find mar kets abroad.
 That our government, by whatso ever political party, ,s sable, hon est and efficient should be tie chiet concern of our citizenship.

SUBSCRIPTION RATES;
OPPOSITION WELL TAKEN.

Governor Clark is right in his op- position to the cannerymen who are seeking to have the taxes now i'm posed upon the salmon canning indus try. devoted to maintaining fish hatcheries, and thus divert from the educational and road funds a not in- considerable part of their revenue. The Governor rightly maintains that the efficiency of such work would be seriously impaired.
 The Empire believes that salmon hatcheries should be operated and maintained exclusively by the gov, erument itself. because it believes that in no other way can the supply Of salmon be conserved in these wa. tcrs. The present system of releas. ing salmon fry by the cannery con- cerns is far from satisfactory that much as it does not accomplish that for which it is intended, namely, the restocking Of the waters with this valuable food fish
 Speaking broadly. 1t may be assert cd with truth that many O. the sal mon packing companies are not vital. ly concerned in the propagation of the fish. Their aim is to get as much money as they can, as quickly as they can, out Of the business, and then quit Added to this is the fact that nearly all of them are foreign corpor- ations. with headquarters outside of Alaska. where al. their supplies are purchased and from which they bring all their employees. Like migratory wild fowl they come North in the spring and return in the fall. with their cargoes. and their employees are paid of at the places from whence they came.
 Alaska is being deprived of val uable source Of it's wealth and reve- nue without adequate compensation. Our fisheries laws need revision, and promptly. It would be placing no hardships on the salmon eanpery in- dustry it the tax were 70 be increased. It might be graduated SO as to meet the conditions O, each year. but, in any event, it will stand an increase, and Alaska will then reap more sub stautiaI benefit from the great indus try than it does Tow.

 Fortunately the native press is ex' pressing itself very clearly against such an innovation as contrary to the spirit of the republic. There are in the country of course people belong ing to the old regime who still use their titles, but 1t is argued that these are to be treated as noble families be- longing to a foreign nation.
