Secretary Lane, of the interior de Dartment, believes tbat Alaska is en- titled to Che benefit of her own resourc- es and hat i' is The duty of the govern ment to assist in the development of the territory. In his annual report to President Wilson he recommends the adoption of a plan which will complete ly le7olutionize the system of handling the affairs of the territory. His report says "Iu my judgment the proper way to deal with the problem of developing Alaska and it's resources is to establish a board of directors who would be ac. couuta5le to the president direct for tbeir actions. They should have direct charge of the work Co be done. Into Che hands of this board ! would give all the national ass ts of the territory to be used primarily for her development and improvement. Her lands should be developed and settlers encougaged to 90 there. The fisheries conserved and hatcheries established to guarantee that future generations should not lack the supply of food which is now adding millions of dollars of wealth to the country each year. The Indians and Eskimos should be assisted in every way encouraged to become pro gressive citizens. The seals, forests, mines, waterways and railroads should be placed under control of this board. This board of course would have nothing whatever to do with the in- ternal affairs of the territory as organ ized by the Alaska territorial legisla- ture."
 A Nome disp teh states that the miners there now believe that the sus pension of assessment work on Seward peninsula owing to Che big storm has worked a double hardship, since they have been deprived of the work and many of them are being forced to leave. They now charge that it was a clever scheme framed up by the larger dredging operators. It is claimed that some of the companies have hundreds of claims which they are holding which under the pew law they would have been compelled To perform sl00 worth of work on each claim and many claims as the result would have reverted to Che government.
