HOW TO OPEN ALASKA.

Upon Secretary Lanes return t.
Washington. from an extended west
ern trip, he gave out very interest
ing interview concerning Alaska, ad-
vancng some new ideas of its devel-
opment, combined with closer connec-
ton with the United States. He said,
touching upon possible railroad build
ing:
THE time will come soon when We
will need not only complete system
of government owned and govern
ment operated railways in the terri
tory, but also an overland railroad
system to Alaska from the Puget
sound country and possibly from Chi
cago.
Alaska Is bound to develop rapidly
in the future and 1t will be necessary
to keep the territory in complete and
constant communication with the
United States. This can be done only
by means of direct railroad, and
think this eventually will materializc.
There is already a railroad system
in Canada reaching to a point 500
miles northeast of Vancouver. II
would be only 1000 miles from there
to the Alaskan boundary, and it would
require only 200 additional miles Of
railroad to reach from the boundary
to the system now proposed In the in
terror of Alaska"

THE WEST AND THE TARIFF.
(Denver Republican,

The west, particularly. is hoping
against hope that 1t is not going to
suffer so severely under the new tar
iff law as the discriminatory sched-
ules would Indicate. That the west
has been disseminated against Is
plain. The new tariff was framed
chiefly for the purpose Of shifting the
heavy burdens to the producing
states. The west produces the beet
sugar cattle, sheep, lead and zinc
which suffer so severely In the I'm
derwood schedules. The western
sugar beet raiser, cattleman, MINER
sheepnan and sugar manufacturer are
the ones who must pay the democratic
fiddler for fiddling. And these west
crn men and their fellows voted for no
such legislation. Most of the western
states, like Colorado cast heavier
vote for the two republican candidates,
who stood for protection, than for the
democratic candidate, who stood for
the policy of encouraging free trade
competition. Yet If one marks off the
west of the Missouri river,
one has a very good picture Of the
tariff goat

and weapons to a prisoner Is no re-
Election upon him; rather, 1t Is a re-
Election upon the construction of thu
jail which makes such a thing posi-
bic. Here Is striking argument in
favor of placing the jail on the top
floor rather than in the basement.
The fact that the noise of the saw
ing Of the bars was heard in the com
nllssloners' room above during the III
ternoon without any effort being made
to discover who was making the noise
Is not remarkable in the least If the
jailor or any one connected with the
sheriff's Office had heard The noise, the
matter would have been investigated
at once, because he would have known
that something was wrong. But The
men who did hear the noise naturally
assumed that it was caused by work
being done under the direction of the
sheriff's office. The fact that the
noise occurred during the day when
the court house was full of people
was in itself the most effective thing
in keeping down suspicion Had the
noise been heard at night any man
who heard it would have at once sus-
pected a Jail break and given the
alarm. Occurring in the daytime, no
one gave any thought to it except as
the noise caused more or less annoy
ance.
Sheriff McCabe and his deputies
have lost no time since the escape of
the prisoners in their efforts to cap
ture Them and they have good rea-
son to believe that their efforts will
yet be successful. Any attempt to
use this jail delivery as a means Of
bringing discredit upon the sheriff's
office will react upon those who at
tempt It, There is just one way this
escape could have been prevented and
that is to have had guard on duty
constantly day and night, a proceed
ing unheard of in taking care of the
county prisoners in ordinary times.
and which would have entailed an eX-
pense which would have been wholly
unjustifiable.

OUR MEXICAN POLICY.

A week or ten days ago an Ameri-
can citizen who CHANGED to be ma
tive of Germany was thrown into
Mexican prison on some pretext. The
imprisoned man by some means got
word to friend in San Francisco anil
this friend Immediately started the
machinery going to secure his release.
Being a citizen of the United States
this government would naturally be
the one to which an appeal should be
made for his release, but this friend
of the German American did not adopt
the natural order, for the reason thar
he wanted quick and positive action
and his observations during the past
few weeks clearly convinced him that
such action could not be expected
from his own government He there
fore made his appeal to the German
ambassador to Mexico and within "A
hours his friend was free man with
every right secure while on Mexican
soil. II Hx,siH
Now comes the news that owing to
the extensive German interests il,
Mexico, the German government has
q n gsi hn
ed States fleet in patroling the coast
of Mexico. This is merely a polite
manner on the part Of Germany of in
forming the Wilson administration
that it has no faith in its ability to
protect foreign interests and that
Germany proposes to take care of her
own

European governments have passivc'N
acquiesced in this doctrine, assuming
that the United States government
was prepared to give the protection
which it implied. The weakness Of
the Wilson Bryan Mexican policy
shows that this government can not
be depended upon to carry out the
spirit of the Monroe Doctrine in The
protection of foreign citizens and in
terests, nor even to protect American
citizens and interests. That Germany
is convinced of this is plainly shown
by her sending warship to patrol
the Mexican coast, and the action Of
Germany may be followed by other
European nations. This would make
a breach in our foreign policy as out
lined in the Monroe Doctrine and
might lead TO complications which
could never be settled without a
stick in the administration grape
