FALSE ECONOMY.

Inasmuch as United States Attor- ney General McReynolds has given it as his opinion that the poll tax and license laws of the territory of Alaska are imperative and void, the query naturally arises as to where tbe territory is going to procure funds to keep the official wheels moving until measures can be taken to remedy the defect by legislative enactment of laws that will stand the test of enforcement?
 The dispatch that announced the receipt by AIr. Rustgard of the opin- ion of the Attorney General also says that it is probable that a spec iaI session of the territorial legis- ture will be called to take action in the matter, but that seems to us a heavy and useless expense to be borne by the people, for the req son that the sama men who passed our present defective laws would be again called upon to perform a duty which they have proven themselves incapable of doing in a proper man her, and the tax payers would have no assurance after standing the ad- dition cost that the members of the legislature would prove themselves any more competent of drafting laws in the future than they have in the past.
 A spirit of false economy seems to have obsessed the members of the first territorial legislature of Al aska, and instead of following along the lines which were very clearly de fined for their guidance by the en- abliug act, they eudeavored to foist

duties upon federal office holders, with the plainly evident idea that by so doing they could get the work performed more cheaply than could otherwise be done
 Economy in a public official is very commendabIe and praiseworthy trait when a careful study of the matter in hand shows that the best interests of the people may be sub served, but when, as in this case, a measure is put hurriedly thru with no thought as to the question of it's legality nor of the consequent in creased expense all anullment of it's provisions would entail, the question of economy appears to be one which is not borne out by facts and the action is deserving of con- demnation rather than praise

Capt. davidson to Return.

The Burnside and DonaldsonvilIe
Packet Company are fortunate in
having secured the promise of the
veteran pilot and master, Capt. J. G.
Davidson, to again assume charge Of
. their steamer Virgie, succeeding
Capt. f. B. Miller. who will shortly
return to his home in Wisconsin.
Capt. Davidson, after eight years of
faithful service as master Of the
reliable passenger packet plying be-
tween this city and Burnside, re-
signed just one year ago and moved
to New Orleans to be near his chill
dren. All who know him will be
pleased to learn of his contemplated
return, and will join The Chief in
extending him a cordial welcome
back to DonSzdsonVille.
During the memorable hurricane of
Sept. 20, 1909, at the very height of
the storm, Capt, Davidson plotted the
Virgie to a safe harbor opposite
Cantey's Point, thereby saving the
vessel from destruction and total
loss, for which brave and heroic
conduct he was highly commended
by the owners of the boat. Resolu-
tons expressing their appreciation
ofs his courageous action were adopt
ed at a meeting of the board Of d.
rectors held Feb. 2, 1910.

Smoke Bend Postoffice Robbed.

The postoffice at Smoke Bend was
burglarized Monday night and a
registered letter containing 81 stolen,
together with IS cents in coins which
had been left in the cash drawer.
The supply Of stamps and postcards,
and all of the days receipts except
the small amount named, had been
locked in the safe at the close of
business, and no effort was made
by the thief to force the receptacle.
The registered letter had been left
in the registry receipt book over
night The postoffice is located in
the store of e. P. Melancon, who is
postmaster, and entrance to the Of
flee was gained by forcing open a
window. Nothing in the store was
disturbed, and apparently there IS
not the least clue to the identity Of
the burglar. The matter has been
reported to the postoffiee authorities
at New Orleans.

Cotton in New River,

NJ G. SaVario, Well-knoWn farmer
of the Acy neighborhood, was trans
acting business in DonaldsonVille
Tuesday. Mr. Savario stated that
field work is well advanced in his
section, cane planting having been
concluded and corn planting being
now under way. He said the cotton
acreage will be materially increased
this year, the farmers being OF the
opinion that with improved cultural
methods and scientific selection of
seed, as demonstrated by the farm
ers' cooperative work conducted by
the federal and state departments of
agriculture, it will be possible to raise
a good crop of cotton and harvest it
before the boil weevil has had a
chance to get in its destructive work.
Last year quite a good deal of cot
ton was planted in the fertile New
River seetioa, and While the crop
didn't pan out very Successfully the
farmers point to the fact that this
was due more to unfaVorable wealth
er= conditions than to the boil WeeFll.
comparatively little harm having been
done by the rapacious pest. Cotton
planting will not be undertaken be-
fore the middle of the coming month,
and none Of the farmers will devote
his entire acreage to the. crop, the
Invaluable lesson Of diversified
tom 1saglag been well learned
through costly e1pesienee.
