THE SENATE SHOULD REMEMBER R
 THE TITANIC.

The seamen's bill for improving the status of deep-sea sailors and thus raising the standard of their efficiency is now hanging in the balance In the United States Senate.
 Sailors in tho foreign trade are sub ject to antique laws that oppress and degrade them. The consequence is that every ship that crosses the ocean h exposed to serious and unnecessary peril because of the low grade of ef- flciency that obtains among crushed and hopeless sailormen. The high spirited American seamen of former times has been driven out of tho for

It can be seen by the list of those who compose the excursion coming here this month that some very prom inent people will be amongst them as we'll as men representing some of the greatest publications in the United States. It can also be seen that East and West and even Europe will take part in the great trip and that Alaska will receive attention from many who had never before been able to get the truth at first hand. Amongst the ex- cursionists Is the special representative of the President. the editor in chief of the Seattle Post t-Intelingencer. re- presentatives of the Hearst papers. Leslie's Weekly. the Atlanta Consti- tution, the Chicago Ledger and others.

It will. without the shadow of . doubt, have an easy for tune in the Senate if the voice of pulp lie opinion and common sense can be made audible in chamber that has just witnessed the passage of an undemo- cratic immigration bill over the presi- dents veto.

WILSON AND WHAT HE
 MEANS TO ALASKA

President Wilson is man of sterl- ing qualities. He enters upon his du- ties with lofty ideals, and strength of character sufficient to brush aside the obstacles which made President Tafts trail look like the markings on a weather chart at the end of a capric- ious season.
 President Wilson has asked for the support of a united people, regardless of political faith, and We believe he has it. In fact, it is doubtful if any previous President in recent times could boast of stronger support at the commencement of his administra- tion. It is the kind of support that spells success, and if President Will son fails in the accomplishment of those things which he has set about to do, it will not be because the peo- pie were not with him. But he will not fail He is not the kind of man to fail, and we venture the prediction that he will be regarded as a greater man at the end of his administration than he now is
 Of what significance President Will sons presence in the White House is to Alaska, is a matter yet to be de. decided We know that Alaska will be permitted to develop under Demo- cratic rule, but what reforms will be, we will probably not know until Pres ident Wilson presents his views to Congress. In the meantime, there is consolation in the thought that we will be treated fairly at all events, and we believe that once the administration has decided to act. no moss will be allowed to gather on the plans and specifications
 Altogether, it is bright outlook for the country at large, and for Alaska in particular, and the signs indicate that the wheels of reform will begir turning ere many days have passed. Fairbanks Times.

COL. w. P. RICHARDSON
 BOOSTS ADMINISTRATION

Tt is my opinion that more atten- tion will be given to the development of Alaska by the new administration than ever before" said Col w. F.. Richardson, who has charge of the construction of government roads in Alaska, when seen at the Seattle ho- tel this morning.
 Col. Richardson is returning to the North, from Washington, D C., where he spent the winter. He bases his opinion on what he has heard from the White House and the general feeling in Washington.
 "Of the special Alaska appropria- ton of $155,OOO, about $1OO,OOO will probably be used in the construction of roads from Valdez to Fairbanks" '" said Col Richardson this morning. "The other $55,OOO of the appropria- tion of congress will probably be used in the construction of protecting dike at Valdez against the glacial floods. In the past years the citi- zens of Valdez have worked to pro- tect themselves against the great floods which come down on that city in the summer time from the big glacier. Notwithstanding their efforts however large areas of property have been destroyed each year, and the government now has taken the pro lection of the Alaska city in its own hands"
 Col. Richardson is planning to re main in the city for three or four days in order to settle minor business matters, after which he intends to re turn to Alaska Seattle Times.
