Can't Own Mine

The spirit of square deal" which now prevails in most government bus
 mess is illustrated by the manner in in which the United States geological survey guards the data it obtains and also withholds information from pri- vate persons until reports embodying such material can be published and of fered free of cost to rich and poor alike.
 The law under which, the United States geological survey was organized in 1879 expressly provides that the dir ector and members of the survey shall have no personal or private interest in the lands or mineral wealth of the re zion under survey and shall execute no surveys or examinations for private parties or corporations. This was a wise prediction; for on the one hand it insured that whatever advantages were to come from geologic work paid for by the people as a whole should be equally and simultaneously available to all, and, on the other hand, it re- moved from the geologist what woCId otherwise have been strong and fre- quent temptation to make his official work subordinate or contributory to his personal and material interests.
 So strictly is the regulation now in. | 4....4ol thot tbo ,,ounrnrnart Doolo
 gists are prohibited from buying stock in any mining company operating in the United States. The result has been that the public in general has conf. dence in the impartiality and integrity of the federal geologists, and property owners willingly impart information to them which would be withheld from men who might use it for their own ad. vantage. Even after resignation from the survey a geologist is in honor bound by written promise not to act as an expert in mining litigation in any district that he may have iuvesti. gated while on the survey, until three years shall have passed since his resig- nation or until ten years shall have passed since he made an official report on the district. It is supposed that after these periods of limitation the local information gained in his official capacity will have ceased to be of special advantage in current litigation.

The Trouble With Alaska

he l rouble With Alaska
 Commenting on the showing in Gov. Clark's report, that Alaska has suffered an actual loss of population during the past two years, the Washington Herald remarks:
 Considering the success of the American administration in the Philip pines, Porto Rico, the Hawaiian islands and other insular possessions, the fall ure in Alaska is all the more inexplic- able, unless the long and to some con- sidered dreadful Alaska winter and it's attendant dscomforts are taken to be the main cause of the aversion to set clement there."
 There is nothing inexplicable about the failure of Alaska to develop. If Alaska were given treatment identical with that accorded the Philippine isl ands, for example. it would speedily have population greater than several of the states in the the Union. It IS precisely because it has not been given the treatment accorded to every other possession of the United States that 1t has not developed. It is tied up and it's development deliberately arrested by the federal government
 la the Philippines there is local self government. The public lands are ad- miniatered as the property of the peo. pie of the islands and to encourage their development. The government has lent it's credit to the construction of railroads and has built other high ways Every dollar of the revenues collected in the Philippines is devoted to the islands.
 In Alaska the development of every resource, save the miues and precious metals and the fisheries, is deliberately prevented. With the greatest coal fields in the world, Alaska has to inn port it's fuel, because tke laws of con- gress for the disposition of coal lands have been annulled by executive action and all of the coal land placed in res- ervations, not to be touched until con- gress repeals it's present laws and passes others more in accord with the views of professional conservationists. Every open barbor on the coast of Alaska and practically the entire coast Nine has been made into fake forest re- serves, ostensibly for the protection of non existent tim Der. The door of op- portunity is closed and locked in the face of every man who goes to Alaska for any purpose other than mining. Alaska's dreadful winters" are myth Nowhere along the sea coast of Alaska, outside of Boring sea, has there been as cold winter as has been seen along the Atlantic seaboard from Maine to the Carolinas. As cold weather has been seeu in Los Angeles as in Southeastern Alaska. Alaska has not developed, merely because it's de- velopmeut has been deliberately straugled. There is nothing inexpli- cable about it. Had the same condi. tions existed fifty years ago in this state of hington-meauiug the arr tificial conditions created by direct government action-it would have re. maiued 10 this day widerness.-Se- attle P..I.

CINCINNATI AFTER
GIBSON OF PIRATES

Pittsburgh, Feb. n.-They're hearing
things down in Redland. From the
city where the Rhine flows comes the
statement that ''the Cincinnati club
will make a bid for the services Of
Catcher George Gibson of the Pitts
burgh club 1t is further stated that
"Gibsons welcome is about worn out
in Pittsburgh and that Billy Kelly is
the future great behind the bat, as
far as the Steel City is concerned
This, of course is news to the Off
Gals of the Pittsburgh club as we'll
as to the local fans. AS far as all
concerned knew, prior to the declara-
ton from Cincy, Gibson was to re-
main on the Pirate roster-at least
during the 1913 season. OF course there
isn't going to be any trouble win
ming the pennant this year; and Man
ager Fred Clarke is Just the sort of
a fellow to drop his veteran catcher
at the time when he is most needed
But, Brother Fan, let's not get ex-
cited over this run1or. If someone asks
you about it, offer to bet him a new
straw bonnet that when the worlds
series coin is being divided next Octo-
Der, George Gibson will be among the
Pittsburgh players to receive a share
In all seriousness, however. the Reds
are in a bad way for catchers, and
Manager Tinker is making all kinds of
efforts to land an experienced man
Since Larry Mclean was turned adrift
but two catchers remain On the Red s
Iist-Tom, Clark and Severoid; and
neither of these can be regarded as a
star.

FAVOR NUMBERS FOR
THE FOOTBALL PLAYERS
Officials Think Tt Would he Aid at
Football Games.

Parke Davis. Pr1nceton's football au-
thortty, seems to have struck a res
ponSive chord with his suggestions re-
garding THE numbering OF football play
ers and placing the goal posts several
feet back of the goal lines. Both slrg-
gesttons have met with the approval
of many of the officials of the game,
and it is hoped that when they are
formally submitted to the football
rules committee at the meeting next
week they will be adopted and writ
ten into the rules.
Several football officials have ex-
pressed opinions the suggestions.
James A. Hatch of Williams favored
both of them.
THE numbering Of the players so
they could be distinguished during
game would be good thing, I think -
he said. cit would make it a great
deal easier for spectators to follow the
game as well as be a help to officials
on the side lines. It would do away
with disputes over illegal forward
passes. Only certain men can legally
take a forward pass, and if each man
wore a number it would be easy for
officials to see who had the ball and
determine whether the play was legal.
The only objection against the
scheme as far as I can see now is that
distinguishing the players might en-
able the opponents to interfere with
secret plays This is hardly profitable,
for the men would be lined I'D facing
each other SO that the numbers could
not be seen anyway until the ball was
put in play

fused to waive on Becker and got
him for 81. 500.

STANAGE BOSS
OF DETROIT STAFF
CATCHER WILL HAVE AUTHOR
TTY TO SAY WHEN PITCHER
WILL GO OUT.

Rumor has it that there will be a
change in the method OF handling
the Detroit clubs pitchers in 1918. In
stead of leaving this matter entirely
In the hands of Manager Jennings, as
it has been in the past, it is reported
that Oscar Strange is going to have
a large share of the say as to who
the performer on duty is due for the
derrick. Heretofore Stanage, in spite
of the fact that he is generally con-
sfdered by the critics to be as good as
any backstop in baseball, if not ae-
tua1ly the best, has had practically
nothing to say regarding a hurler's
fitness to go into the box and even
less about his being relieved when he
has shown signs Of slipping
Such a. system is wrong from the
foundation up. Nobody else on a ball
club knows mISch about the pitch
ers as does the fellow who catches
ager in the world cannot tell by mere
ly sitting on a bench whether, his
choice for pitching duty has any
thing but the man with the big n1itt
can do when right, ought to be able
to gauge to a nicely just how the ball
is behaving
Considerably better results may be
expected of the Tiger twirlers, young
and old, If Stanage is consulted every
day before the game. And if he de-
clares that hur1er isn't ready, some
body else ought to be sent in provid-
ing there is anyone at all available
AS there are times when a pitcher who
has anything will be pounded ali
over the lot Oscars judgment will not
always be right Many times he will
fall down and recommend for duty a.
deceiver who is absolutely made to
get the correct dope oftener than any
body else.

KILBANE STALLING
FOR SHORT VACATION

The Kilbane- Kirkwood and Shugrue-
Lore matches, which were scheduled
at the Empire A. G., New York Fri
day night, have been postponed until
Feb. 19 As a result there is little of
any consequence left on the f1stic card
this week The reason given for the
postponement is that KiEbane desired
more time in which to train, having
convinced himself that he was not in
perfect condition when he met Young
Driscol last week.
The F'orty-Fourth Street Club will
open under new management on
Thursday night. A rather modest set
of bouts has been scheduled for the
opening attraction, but the manage
nent promises better things for the
future The feature of the card, which
will consist of three ten-round bouts
is a match between K. O. Sweeney
and frankie Nelson. Sweeney recently
distinguished himself by giving weight
to Johnny Lore and holding him to a
draw.

YALE-PRINCETON
AT HOCKEY TOMORROW
NIGHT IN new YORK

In the St Nicholas rink in New
York tomorrow night, Yale and
princeton will meet in the second
game Of their hockey series. When
these teams met before the game was
exciting and ended in victory for
the Tigers.
Since the Ya1e-Dartmouth game last
week, there has been ice on the New
Haven rink, and the players have had
considerably more practice than they
have had for their previous matches.
In these they showed deficiency in
fast skating and inability to keep up
with the puck, which gave speed skat-
ers like 'fHobey'' Baker and Kuhn,
the fast Princeton forwards, a decid-
ed advantage in fighting for posses
sion of the disk Capt Harmon has
had his men at work remedying this
defect.
