pleasure | have experienced in coop
erating with this congress and sharing
with it the labors of common service
10 which il has devoted itself so unre-
servedly during the past seven months
of accomplishing concentration upon
the business of legislation? Surely 1t
is Il proper and pertinent part of my
report on "The State of the Union" to
express my admiration for the dill
gence. the good temper and the full
comprehension of public duty which
has already been manifested by both
the houses. and hope that it may not
be deemed an impertinent intrusion
of myself into the picture if say with
now much and how constant satisfac-
ton have awaited myself of the priv
ilege of putting my time and energy
at their disposal alike in counsel and
in action. WOODROW WILSON.

PROBLEM IN ALASKA.
Urges Development by Nation of Nat
uraI Resources and Full Territorial
Form of Government.

Urges Development by Nation of Nat
ural Resources and Full Territorial
Form of Government.
A duty faces US with regard to Alas
ka which seems to me very pressing
and very imperative; perhaps l should
say double duty, for it concerns both
the political and the material develop
ment of the territory. The people of
Alaska should be given the full terri
torial form of government, and Alas
ka. as n storehouse, should be unlock
ed. One key to 1t is a system of rail-
ways These the government should
itself build and administer. and the
ports and terminals it should itself
control in the interest of all who wish
to use them ftr the service and devel
opment of the country and its people.
But the construction of railways Is
only the first steps only thrusting in
the key to the storehouse and throw
ing back the lock and opening the
door. How the tempting resources of
the country are to be exploited Is an
other matter, to which shall take the
liberty of from time to time calling
your attention. for it is a policy which
must be worked out by well consid-
cred stages, not upon theory but upon
lines of practical expediency. 1t is
part of our general problem of con-
servation. We have freer hand in
working out the problem in Alaska
than in the states of the Union, and
yet the principle and object are the
same wherever we touch it. We must
use the resources of the country. not
lock them up.
There need be no conflict or jealousy
as between state and federal authori-
Ties. for there can be no essential diff
ference of purpose between them. The
resources in question must be used,
but not destroyed or wasted; used, but
not monopolized upon any narrow idea
of individual rights as against the
abiding interests of communities. That
a policy can be worked out by confer
ence and concession which will release
these resources and yet not leopard
or dissipate them l for one have no
doubt, and it can be done on lines of
regulation which need be no less ac-
ceptable to the people and government
of the nation at large, whose heritage
these resources are. We must bend
our counsels to this end. A common
purpose ought to make agreement
easy.

but of the nominees for congress, the
nominees for vacant seats in the SEN

whose terms have not yet closed, the
national committees and the candi-

in order that platforms may be framed
by those responsible to the people for
carrying them into effect.

Do Not Drink
Is Our Advice

If you can't get along entirely
without it, then our advice is use
the best and purest. 1t is the
least harmful at least.
We also advise you not to use
tobacco. If you can not get along
without either of these articles then,
our advice is, use the best that can
be had, and under no circumstances
indulge your appetite to excess.
To eat too much is injurious like
wise. Do not eat too much.
Our wines and liquors, being
pure and wholesome, are very ex-
cellent for cooking purposes.
Than our cigars, none are better.

already accorded the people of the Is
lands a majority in both houses of
their legislative body by appointing
FIVE instead of four native citizens to
the membership of the commission. l
believe that in this way we shall make
proof of their capacity In counsel and
their sense of responsibility in the ex-
ercise of political power and that the
success of Shis step will be sure to
clear our view for the steps which are
to follow.
Step by step we should extend and
perfect the system of self government
in the islands, making test Of them and
modifying them as experience discloses
their successes and their failures; that
we should more and more put under
the control of the native citizens of the
archipelago the essential instruments
of their life, their local instrumentali-
ties of government. their schools, all
the common interests of their commu-
mites and so by counsel and experience
set up a government which all the
world will see to be suitable to a peo-
pie whose affairs are under their own
control.
At last, l hope and believe, we are
beginning to gain the confidence of the
Filipino peoples. By their counsel and
experience. rather than by our own,
we shall learn how best to serve them
and how soon it will be possible and
wise to withdraw our supervision. Let
us once find the path and set out with
firm and confident tread upon it, and
we shall not wander from it or linger
