Official Paper
NOME, ALAss<A, JUNE q. iss%
Congress is really svidsncing .

Congress is really evidencing . praseworthy disposition to follow up the snacting of the Alaska railway bill by the passage of Q leasing bill that will result in giving some tom nage to the railroad after 1t is built We are very glad to note that con- stant hammering has driven the fact home to them that not only does AL aska need a railway, but given the railway. 1t is necessary to unshackle the country and allow her resources to be developed. Two bills for the leasing of the coal lands are before the public lands committee of the senate and with the friendly co-op- eration of Secretary of the Interior Lane. backed by Senator Walsh. Poin- dexter and Pittma1, it is hoped that they will be able to present . bill that will at least be workable. Ap- pearances indicate that both houses arc in earnest iL their attempt to frame . bill that will do the most sood with the least amount of harm. We fail to see why the government should reserve half of all the coal in the Boring and Matanuska fields. but if they decide to do 70 there will bs no great harm done, as there will be plenty left. One of the provisions under consideration by the commit tee is to allow the municipalities to own and operate mines and conduct public yards for the distribution of the coal, and that such cities shall have preference after the federal gov ernment. These provisions all indi- cate that congress is struggling nobly to make amends for some of its past neglect. Let us hope that while in this frame of mind they will consider the claims of the pioneers who have discovered these felds and have fn- vested their money in an honest sf- fort to develop them. Congress should. and undoubtedly will. give these men the preference in the matter of loca- ton. To do anything else would bs an act of injustice 70 great that ws do not care to contemplate ths pes sibility of it.

If the facts of our unpreparedness could be brought home to the Ameri- can people. no congressman who has voted against necessary measures of defense and necessary supplies would dare to face his constituents at this time.
 The political lives of these misrep- resentatives depen1 upon the public's ignorance of the real facts. and some of these facts 1t is not well to discuss publicly in present circumstances. But the friends of preparedness, in and out of congress. should not fail As far as possible, and to press insistently the conclusions to be drawn from them.
 The inadeQucies of our means of dealing with imminent eventualities in Mexico are . dissrace to congress and to the country.
 For example. there are known to be 2ss pieces of neld artillery in Mexico. according to the Army ana Navy Journal. Originally in the hands of the fsderaiA many of these pieces arc now in the hands of the constitution alists. but war may bring them to- gether against us. There are forty eight pieces of artillery on their way from Japan to Mexico. If they are not intercepted. they will bring Mexican artillery to sol piscss-more than we have in the United States.
 That is congressional economy. AS reported by tho chief of ordnance not long ego. ws have not enough ann- intuition for our artillery to supply all of 1t during a single Ions engage. ment.
 That is congressional economy.
 Husrta, 1t is estimated. has l2,oed soldiers. We have 3l.ooo regulars in the United states. We have no re- serve. We are about to mako use of the sea coast artillery troops to make up for shortage In the mobile army
 
 We are going to uss the marinee fl wo advance from Vera Crus. Neither of these special forces should be used In this way.
 All this .is congressional economy the traditional folly of our government repeated in our day. Congress- haa learned nothing.
 For another example, congress hai just hastily passsda bill to facilitate the use of the national guard as na. tionai force available without the linn. its of the Units0 states. It means ct the eleventh hoar--a critical need Ia all our wass. and lase t,lustsAssd ~ rsosntly e our wsx. with svain.-Chi. aARn TrihznM

PATHER MUST REPAY GIFT
HE TOOK FROM HIS son

Thomas Major, a minor, will re-
cover irom his father. David Major,
$500. the price OF pair OF mules
that the elder man gave TO his son
and later took back. the jury in the
case decided late yesterday after
noon. Thomas Major offered testi-
monys that proved to the satisfac-
ton OF the jury that his father gave
him the mules. though the boy did
not have actual possession OF them.
and that the father later took them
back after Mrs. David Major had
filed suit for divorce in the district
court here. He sold the mules for
| $40 each.
The case was appealed from justice
court. Mrs. Major was given a
divorce decree In the September
district court term here.
David Major Is an unusual wit
ness. He not only answers a law
lyer's particular question, out ne
will answer a dozen more in the
same sentence unless halted by the
court. The evidence he gave on the
stand was directly at variance with
that OF three other witnesses. In
one instance, while Major had a
conversation with another man, he
had no recollection that q third
man was present during all the con-
versation, and said that the third
man had come from, another direc-
ton in a wagon Of his own. The
other two men testified that they
had been together in the same wa
gon all the while.
