GOVERNMENT OR
 GUGGENHEIN?

It was one or, the other in Alaska The last of our continental Territor- les is one.afth the size of the United States. It is almost ten times the size of New York, Connecticut and New Jersey Secretary of the Inter- for Lane, asserts that it cdn be made to produce in abundance the cereals, vegetables, meats and fruits which in Norway, Sweden and Finland sup port a population of 9,OOO,OOO. He says. furthermore, that there are 5O,- OOO, ,OOO. acres of land in Alaska that will make homes for people as sturdy as those of New England" Yet to this day.. after forty-six years of own ership by the United States, there are fewer than 10000 white people in the Territory.
 When the Senate passed bill pro- yiding for Government construction and ownership of railroad in Alas ka, 1t settled for all time the lines on which the development of that vast region is to proceed. The Guggenheim' Morgan method was discarded some time ago. Experience elsewhere had condemned the whole system of grants, concessions, bounties and monopolies. There was reluctance to embark the Government in what had been regard ed as private enterprises, but in the matter of railroad 1t was Guggen- helm or Government, and we are glad to say Government won.
 Alaska belongs to the people of the United States. Some day it will be State. Shall it be free State or a Guggenheim State? If free State, its wealth must be opened to settlers under equal laws. If a Guggenheim State, it's opportunities must be hand ed over at the beginning to a power full coterie. The decision of the Sen ate in favor of national railroad, whether actually operated b, the Gov ernment or not, is not so much an ad- venture in socialism, as some people think, as a courageous experiment in. democracy.
 In some of our various States new theories are being put to the test. They will live or die in accordance with their results. Why should not the Republic itself. profting by the errors of the past, put upon trial in the last of it's Territories some of the ideas that have been suggested by experience?- New York World.

which. after some elaboration,
awarded Mr.. Hall a verdict against
the district of $4,000. the costs of the
case to be taxed up to the defendant.
This case grew out OF the reorga-
nization OF this school district when
il was sought to take in portion OF
the main line OF the o. s. l.. lying
east of US. After the approval OF the
lines OF the district by the board OF
county commissioners, the Shoshone
district sought to nullify this action
of the board, and Mr.. Hall was re
tanned by the school board here t
represent them in the courts. Th'
case was carried to the supreme cour
which tribunal affirmed the decision
of the district court, leaving the dis
trict as defined by the commissioners
For his services Mr.. Hall rendered
| bill OF $4,000 against the district
which to the board seemed excessive
and after futile attempts at CON
promise, suit was brought for tn
sum of $500. resulting In the vel
