into that matter very thoroughly in a
special message to Congress. showing
not only that no monopoly was created,
but that no monopoly was possible. Tho
bill under which Ryan holds the right
to get from the interior to tide water
on Controller bay simply gives him the
necessary right involved in his bust
ness, There is ample opportunity for
any one else to get just as good right
as Ryan has on Controller bay, the
only difference being that Ryan has
the first choice of places at which to
build his pier and approaches. The
message of President Taft on this
question was accompanied by full
drawings showing that Ryan was get

CHAMBERLAIN AND ALASKA.

Delegate James Wickersbam of
Alaska appears to be a lively indi
Vidual, well able to keep himself in
the limelight. He is heard from fre-
quently in the dispatches from Wash
ipgton, and always as he considers
in behalf of the people of Alaska and
in pursuance of his official character
as the delegate of those people He
has had much to say in relation to
the paralyzing Pinchot faddism which
has paralyzed Alaska for the last IF
teen years, and has prevented de-
velopment Alaska is the only part of
the United States which is shown by
the comparative censuses of 1900 and
1910 to have made no progress. There
were within a few hundreds as many
people in Alaska in 1900 as there were
III 1910, and when Pinchot recently
testified that the bindrance to Alaskan
development was by the Guggenheims
he was promptly confronted by the un.
doubted proposition that he himself,
Pincbot, was the man chiefly. re-
sponsible for Alaska g stationary con
dition; since it was due to him and to
raise, that the bars against progress
were so thoroughly put up and held so
strongly in place.
Generally speaking. citizens of the
United States under the land laws are
entitled to file upon the public do
poses, but for the purposes of mining,
water power, and water use. But
those who have filed upon. coal lands
in Alaska are held to be criminals:
those who have developed a water
power are threatened with the Jail,
and those who undertake to establish
a timber business are such fiendisb out
laws that even a penitentiary sentence
would not do them justice; all this un
der the Pinchot propaganda and faddy
notions.
a good many efforts have been made
to get around the Pincbot policies so
as to allow citizens of the United
States to enjoy their rights under the
law. 1t appears that Senator Chamber
| lain of Oregon has been one of the
individuals who would open, a little
way at least, the opportunity for de.
veopment in Alaska In the hearing
before the Senate Committee on Terri
tories on Wednesday, Delegate Wicker
sham called attention to a bill in
troduced in Congress last year giving
the right-of-way to the Guggenheims
from Mile Twenty-Five on the Copper
River road to ThreeTrce Point. This
bill passed the Senate, but when it
reached the House Wickersham says he
killed it. His comment is that ''if it
had passed it would have given the
Guggenheims title in fee simple to all
of Cordova harbor. and they would
have had a monopoly like that of Mr..
Ryan on Controller bay
This was quite unjust TO Senator
Chamberlain, who made no reply to
the accusation; for the bill simply gave
the right-of-way, nothing else. Every
thing else was reserved to the Govern.
ment and TO the public. And Senator

the reply Of the United States in the
California auti-alien land legislation TO
be satisfactory. And yet it is impos-
sible to see how that reply could have
been put on different basis than that
given in the dispatches as its points.
This fact surely ought to be clear to
any Japanese who knows our form Of
government; while as to the main qucs-
ton involved, since the California law
expressly recites the terms Of our
treaty with Japan, and gives perfect
sfccogntion TO the terms as contained
IN the treaty, it is difficult to see what
Japan has in fact to complain about.

PLANS MEDIATION
OF MEXICAN FIGHT
Head Of Pan.AmeTiceh Union
COnteTS With Officials.

Washington, Feb. 14-Mediatior In
Mexico, rather than Intervention. by
the appointment of Pan-American
commission, was urged upon Presi
dent Taft, Senator Cullom. OF the for
eign relations committee. and Repre-
sentative FLOOD. OF the foreign affairs
committee, by John Barrett, director
general OF the Pan-Amerlcan Union.
The commission, which, II Is sug
gested, should seek TO bring about a
REIMBURSEMENT of Mexican affairs
would be composed of statesman
from the United States, an eminent
Latin-American diplomat now in
Washington and an influential Mexi-
can.
Mr.. Barrett suggested for the COM
mission such men at Senator Root or
William J. Bryan, Senior Calleron,
minister from Bolivia, or DR.. De Pena,
minister from Uruguay, and Senior De
La Barra, of Mexico, former ambassa-
dor to the United States.
In his letter outlining the plan Mr..
Barrett says that "it involves media
ton rather than Intervention, interna-
tional American co-opera ion rather
than individual United States action,
and practical application of the Pan.
American rather than of the Monroe
Doctrine.
The commission, he suggests,
should investigate the situation in
Mexico on the ground and make re
commentators to Mexico which shall
readjust the situation in favor of per.
manent peace and stability"
Through Ambassador Wilson, in
Mexico City, the plan would be pre-
scented to the Mexican government
and to the revolutionary leaders, who
would be urged to cease hostilit' es
pending the action and report of the
commission; and it should be made
known to the Mexican government
and people that they would be ex-
pected, with this moral support and
interest of all America, to carry out
the conclusions of such international
commission.
above all things" he adds, at will
bring for the moment immediate
peace to Mexico, the actual protection
Of life and property of foreigners,
which should in due time develop into
permanent peace, stability and pros
perity for the Mexican government
and people, without striking blow at
Mexico's independence, and with evil
dence to all America that the United
States seeks no territorial aggrandize-
ment."

OH a third conference in order that he

Judge Knapp arrived here from
Washington in response to summons
from William s. Carter. He had been
asked to come for a second time tc
see what he could do after having
failed once to bring the two parties tc
the controversy together.
Accompanying Judge Knapp as me
diator was Acting Commissioner OF

not able, because of lack of informa

conference, according to representa-

to pass beyond the matters that have
