Official Paper
NOME. ALASKA, JAN. 27, 1914.

Last night President Wilson and the members of the foreign relations com mittee of the senate met at the Whit; House in conference over some of th, serious foreign complications which face the country at present.
 The president has this happy way dence. and through the senate. the leoplc of the country. It is making him friends and it gives the pcopl, confidence in him.
 Undoubtdly the country will await with the keenest interest the outecomt or the conference at the White House ever the Japanese and the MeXicar problems that are to be discussed.
 Perhaps the most pressing mattel a the impossible situation in Mexico That is right here hcsid" us and las been going on for so long in spite ot every peaceful effort on our part |; clear it up. The action advised by the committee of the senate will bt interesting even if it is not acted upon.
 The Japanese question is farther away from home. and yet it is, in tho ,hnal considerati ion. more important to the country than is the crisis in Mex leo.
 President Wilson is wise in askin= the members of the senate committee tt meet him and talk these thinss over. No condition should be met without the best minds available be- ing given chance to consider way. and means. It is one of the essential principles of our form of govern ment that no one man is supreme iil authority in matters which vitally ef- feet the entire nation.
 It is this system of community oi action which is partially responsible for the steady advance of the country since its birth. It is the principle that two heads are better than one anG three heads better than two" If this is the case in regard to national af- fairs 1t is also the case in regard to state and territorial and local town affairs.
 That is one reason town is gov erned by council instead of by may or alone. Anything that is worthy of consideration is worthy of being con sidered by more than one person.
 There is somewhat unusual con- dition existing in Nome on account ol its isolation during so many months of the year. We are cut off from the outside world in a way and we are too prone to fall into the habit of attending to our own little individual affairs during the long winter months and just wait until spring rolls around

and the people from the outside como in before we really consider things seriously.
 We have fairly good time and We au considerable for charity of one
 md or another, but we DO stagnatc and just sit around waiting for the |, wd to come back from the outsid,
 That Is all right The fellows whr ire coming in from the outside arr .., ing to be chock full oI fresh on l.usiasm and wonderful ideas and also of their own personal affairs. The sCGsun is short, the fellows from the uutsid" are going to be busy with their own affairs as soon as they land and there will not be time during the short summer to frame anything up for the general advancement of Nome and the country round about We al. ready know that there will be some quartz development next summer, The fellows outside have nothing on us In regard to that We also know that from present indications we should have good placer year The fellows outside are also figuring on that and are coming in to collect some If the c,od which will follow all of this We l row that much about the fellows outside and We do not have to bo mind readers to guess it either.
 But what are these fellows doin" tn boost Nome We do not know that aud we do not want to take any chances on their forgetting it with all "f the other things that they have or their minds
 We have plenty of tim" to think | things over now. to plan and discuss ways and means whereby we may rral some of this big influx of pop
 ulation and investment that is head rl towards Alaska. We must not for l get that for minute. Some of tn, 1 h"' sting will have to come from this end of the line.
 There are some serious problem,
 confronting Nome and there should | h" body of men in Nome with suffi. | cicnt interest in the town to get to-
 gcther and discuss these things

The question of fuel for the navy las been brought up in connection with the development of Alaska and its resources. The coal mined in AL a> ka has already been tested bv the uaNv with varying results and the lI ostionls of the government operat- i"2 the mines and shipping the coal tut over it's own road and of estah- fishing q naval base in Alasak have ',cn discussed
 All If this is very right and proper and certainly the government should if possible control the source of the fuel supply for the nlavy. Too lon" of interruptions corporations and po- liticians in regard to the fuel supply fol the navy Having it's own coal from it's own mines is going to be l great step in advance of the present arrangement
 But while the government is on the subject it might be well to look just little bit farther into the future.
 Coal is not always going to be the fuel of the warships. As matter Of feet it may be even before the gov cIiment roads are completed in Alas kn that we will see our battleships and cruisers everyone burning oil in stead of coal. That is what is com ing to the ships of the world at no very distant date. Already We have tried it in the torpedo boats and de- stroyers and some gunboats. It has lccn a success and has reduced the weight and the number of men re- matters of considerable consequence in a fighting ship.
 Before the coal in Alaska is ready for the use of the navy it seems al | most probable that the navy will be through with coal as fuel for it's ships and will be burning oil. As has been said, for years the eovernmnet has been paying outrag- eous prices to private companies for coal, It has also been "held up by the. oil companies for the little oil that it has so far used for the navy.
 This is wrong and it should not be allowed to continue. Especially as We know that we are going to use oil fuel before many years.
 There is still plenty of oil land in the country. more than enough to furnish the navy with fuel for many many years. We are at last waking l rp to the fact that the government must take some steps to protect itself against the citizens of the country as | well as against the citizens of other bit farther and begin to protect the l navy against the extortion of the big oil companies.
 Some of the known oil producing lands should be set aside for govern ment use. And when they are put out of the way of the private cor porations they should be developed for the government by the government.
 It would not be many years. prOba : bly not one year after the use of oli hecomes peneral in the navy until the difference in the cost of the fuel for the navy between what it would cost the government in getting the oil from
 it's own wells and 0the price it would pa! to the oil trust would furnish one complete battleship year.

BYSzKO ID MEET
 LEWIS AND ROLLER
Big Pole Will Attempt to Throw Both in 75
 Minutes Friday

Zbyszko, heavyweight champion of Europe, and claimant for the world S championship, now that Frank Gotch has gone into retirement, has agreed to throw any two men in the world that the Birmingham Athletic club may select in 75 minutes of actual wrestling next Friday night.
 The proposition submitted by the big Pole has been accepted by the athletic club officials. and their choice is natu- rally Doc Roller and "Strangler" Lewis. With this pair oposing him, Zbyszko will have stupendous task on his hands and past achievements are against him performing this double feat.
 In Louisville early in February it took the Pole one hour and six min utes of wIestling to master the famous physician and as the Kentucky grap- pier is not many notches inferior to Roller, old man "sneeze it" seems 10 have a Waterloo staring him in the face.
 Lewis foot is still in a bad condi- ton, and unless it grows better dur ing the next day or so some other wrestler will have to be procured as a colleague for Roller

GARDNER LEADING
 GOTHAM MATCHES New York Billiard Player Leads in Fight for the
 Amateur Title

New York, March 17.-By winning to- days game from Eugene l.. Milburn of Memphis, Tenn. Edward w. Gardner of New York, stands well in the lead for this years amateur billiard cham pionship title, an honor which he has held on three previous occasions. To- days vicrory was the fourth successive winning bracket for Gardner, and he is the only one of seven contestants in the tournament who has not eXpe- rienced defeat
 Gardner played well today and his run of 12a in the tenth inning was q masterpiece of cue work. The century mark had been reached only twice dur ing the competition, and Gardner now stands aa excellent chance of winning the special prizo for the high run. This cluster was made up of good all round billiards as also was his unfinished 51 with which he completed the necessary 400 points for game in the twenty ninth inning.
 Milburns efforts netted him only 162 points today, his best run being 32. The Memphis cueist has played and losS five games and as he has only one more to play he has no chance of winning any prize nnless in his final contest ne should make the highest run in the tourney. Scores:
 Gardner, 400; average 13 23-29; high runs, 12i, 51, 29.
 Milburn. 162 average. 22-2S; high runs, 32, s9 20.

LAST OF NASHVILLE HOLDOUTS GIVES IN
 AND PENS CONTRACT
TIERNDON CHANGED FROMAN
 lNFIELDER TO OUTFIELDER
By ASA RouNTREE, JR.

Failing to stick with the Barons in the spring of 1913 as an infielder, H. T. Herndon who was recalled from AL bany, in the South Atlantic league, changed during the season to the out field, and in this position is now trying 10 secure a foothold on the 1914 Baron team. As in the infield last spring. herndon will have some warm compe- tition and he will have to play in spec tacular form if he hopes to beat either Knisely, Mcbride or Magee out of Job.
 lIerndon has had only two years of professional experience, both of which were with the Albany club in the Sally circuit. His professional career began in 1912, following several years train ing in Rome, Ga, as an amateur.
 During his first year out Herndon cut a wide swath in the South Atlantic organization, leading the batters with an average of .324. He also fieldad .SsS and stole 13 bases At the close of the season Manager Molesworth put in draft for him.
 However, despite his remarkable showing of the season previous, ne ialleI to measure up to expectations and was shunted back to Albany with Il string attached. In 91 games last year he batted .259, stole 21 bases and fielded .975.
