There will in all probability be a time not very far distant when the population of Alaska will not only be sufficient for the support of stats government. but will be such that the resent territory will be divided into two states, each having all the powers that Is accorded to any of the com mcnwealths of the union. But the reople here will not want any more laws and any more officials than pop uid ion will justify.
 The folly of home rule carried to ar excess was experienced in Neva- da. which Fas ardly been able to bear It's expensive state government. few years ago before the Goldfleld strike. 1t was seriously suggested that Nevada should be dismembered and divided up among the surrounding states as the cost of maintaining the state government was more than the population at that time could easily btar.-Alaska Citizen.

Lieutenant Governor WagneTs dec laration that he Is doing all I can to help him Governor Glynn to secure ] direct primary law is encouraging. Coupled with a similar statement by Senator Bauvelt, who succeeds Wag- ner as majority leader in the senate it promises enactment of the law at the December session.
 Like the governor the lieutenant governor clings to the idea of a party state convention, but he, too. woulC make it merely advisory, limited tC offering recommendations to the vot- CTS at the primaries. "All candidates, he says "so recommended must stand the ordeal of primaries a fortnight { ,er the convention, and all nomina- ti, ms must be by petition"
 Was a true direct primary law the rarty convention will disappear of their own accord. What they have to d" will be so unimportant that mo- body will want to attend them. But the old-line politicians cling to them as to a mystic charm. The point may we'll be conceded to them if they will join in the enactment of a true di- rect primary law embodying these vital points:
 All names to be placed on the pri- mary ticket by petition. including those selected by state conventions.
 The names to be printed alpha be tically, grouped under the title c1 the oHoe to which nomination Is sought.
 No party emblems on the primary ticket.
 The election district to be the pri- mary unit,
 No legal recognition of party com mittees-state or country.
 Given these essentials the friend: of real direct primaries may conced' to old-line politicians the state con. vention as a place to build platforms and "whoop 1t up with the boys."- New York American.

The reason why there are only 2,0O0 acres of land open to entry in the 200, 900 acres of withdrawals in What com and Skagit counties recently Gre stored to entry" is found in the sim pie fact that the land had been pat ented previous to withdrawal.
 The restoration to entry" was a hollow form which had the effect merely of clearing the record of one of the most monumental pieces of stupidity of which the department of the interior has ever been guilty.
 This withdrawal was a coal land withdrawal, but it was made years ago in dense ignorance of the condi- tions, physical or otherwise. Includ . ed within this withdrawal" was the city of Bellingham and all the forms and private timber tracts surround ing it.
 It has long been the policy of the uniformed chiefs of the various bu- reaus to merely mark out boundaries or, map and ask for an executive order creating some sort of reserve or other on the area so designated.
 Coal was found in the hills between the mouth of Glacier and Mount Bak- CT. When Washington learned this the common practice was followed only, the bureau clerk who knew ab- solutely nothing of the geography of the region. marked boundaries which extended the withdrawal area to the shores of Bellingham bay.
 Of course the Cider was without fo,te, because the title to all of this land, except few worthless areas had already passad from th- govern ment. But 1t shows the dense ignor- ance which has marked the creation " rorest ana coal idnd and othny res ar\ ations.
 This ignorance is due to the fact that the public d 'rain Is witho II an adequate field administration force, but is administered entirely by bu- reau clerks who seldom or ever get any farther west than the west walls cf their Washington offices.-P. l.

Home rule for Alaska has not prov ed the great success that its advocates had anticipated, and under the condi- tions that exist at present in the ter ritory it is quite evident that the legislature is a source of much more harm than good.
 It is true that congress not being in touch with this distinct land, is not capable of understanding what is needed here in the matter of laws and that as a result the people of Alaska have never felt quite satisfied with their inability to make laws for themselves. But it should be remem- bered that the Alaska legislature can really make but few laws that can be enforced. for if an act of the Alaska lt gislature interiors with the numer- ous regulations that congress has provided for this territory, the act is not valid.
 After the local legislature has pass. ed law, 1t is generally necessary to have its validity tested in expensive legislation that must go to the higher courts.
 Few of the bills passed by the local legislature have been accepted by all attorneys as valid, and any effort to e,force them will give opportunity to such attorneys as are doing all in their power to fleece their patrons, to carry cases to higher courts at exag- gerated costs.
 Legislatures are expensive luxurIes, even in thickly settled communities, and in this territory. where there are SD few people their cost is multiplied. Thus home rule is proving an unsat- iefactory experiment. and until the population of Alaska is wonderfully increased it can hardly be expected to be successful.
 Another fault with the home rule plan where there are so few people is that 1t is easier for crooked poli- ticians to gain control This was made evident in the recent disclosure of the way fin which seven Alaska senators betrayed their official trust by endeavoring to prevent the con. struction of a railroad in this territor, by the government.

Official Paper
NOME, ALASKA, APRIL g, 1914.

The surprising thing to the cid AL askan, is the rapidity with which AL aska has come to tho front during the past year. We heard rumors of the government going to build q railroad II Alaska but gave it no serious att tertion, because we had been asking fer so little, and getting so much less that We asked for, that real road built and operated by the government seemed so far as the future that only q dreamer seriously considered 1t pos- sble.
 But very few months has changed the whole aspect of things. Alaska is the. center of attraction. The whole civ Nilized world has had its attention drawn in our direction, and the gov e,nment's policy a new one, of build ing and operating an arterial railroad in Alaska; the discussions which it aloused in congress, and the wide publicity given in the press and by tho magazine articles descriptive of the country and all that has been said ard done in congress during the pend e'cy of the railroad bill and its final passage makes Alaska the most dis cusged and written about country on earth. It makes the old sourdough think he is reading and hearing about country, as strange to him as the
 or of Africa, when Alaska and heI resources are being discussed by th, press.
 To form some idea of the extent the Panama canal has focused atten- tion of the world on the Pacific coast and especially on Alaska, the remarks of Sidney Anderson, member of con- . gress from Minnesota, may be given as a sample of hundreds of others which might be given.
 He said recently in magazine ar ticle on, Alaska that. Tn reality 1t is vast empire, rich in possibilities beyond the widest imagining of man. kind. It Is larger than Norway, Swe- der and Finland combined and nearly twice as large as the area now em blaced by the thirteen original states In the forty-six years it has been in Io secession of the United States 1t has added to the worlds wealth more than s200.000,000 in minerals, s70,000.O0 in fur and sea products. and s150OO0.00O in fishery production; more than s40O. 00O,000 altogether.

One Of the officials from the sheriff 8

to serve writ of mandamus on the
treasurer Of school district No. So, to
show cause why he should not pay a
number Of warrants for transportation
Of children to and from school, as pro-
Vided in recent ruling.
The ruling, passed some time ago,
provides that the school district shall
be divided into zones, those in the first
zone who send their children to the
consolidated school to receive 81 a
month for each child sent, for trans
porting the child to the school. Those
in the second zone were to receive Sc
and those in the third $S.
The school board of Gunkel town
ship recently made out warrants to a
number Of persons, paying them ac-
| cording to the above provision, some
of the warrants being drawn in favor
of themselves, as they had children go
ing to school.
The treasurer, it is said, would not
honor these warrants, and when they
| were presented he refused to pay
them. AS a consequence the writ of
mandamus has been issued against
him.

A large number of failures was re-

the total liabilities for each of these
months were considerably less. Nor
tally was heavy in manufacturing
lines and twenty-five failures oi
bilities of more than 100000, caused
the total to swell to unusually large
figures. There were fewer failures ir
brokerage lines, as well as in gro.

Strange to say, the great steel

The loss to the management of the
