DIVIDING ALASKA

Fairbanks Citlzenl
 The suit that is being brought by the people Of the first division to prevent the other three divisions from having any of the forest reserve money approp rated to the Territory by Congress for road building proving quite conclusyely that the Territory Of Alas ka should be divided.
 When we take into consideration the fact that Alaska covers an equal to that of onettth Of the United States proper the impracacbility of it's being under single local government is quite evident Dif ferent sections of the Territory have different interests and the legislation that will help one section will some times hinder another.
 If the First and Third Divisions are combined into one Territory and the Fourth and Second into another there will be more of unity of interests In the First and Third Divisions the climatic conditions are much different than in the Interior of Alaska Here the snow falls to moderate depth seldom than two feet while on the Southern and Southeastern cast it either rains most of the winter or snows to depth of some times 15 feet. This is of the reasons why road building and other improvements there must be differ ent than here
 The people of the First Division complained that Alaska as whole is taking the fishing interests of the First Division for much the Territorial revenues The newspapers of that division have been loud in their pro- tests just the Territory Is to be taxed in different divisions for local needs only
 Probay after the railroad is well under way, 1t would not be hard get Congress to divide the Terri tory making Fairbanks the capital of the new one, and leaving Juneau and Seward to fight h out in regard to which should be the capital of the other Territory
 If 8 Territory is to be formed it has been sug- gesed that t be called Seward in honor of the man re- sponsble for its purchase from Russia nearly half a century ago.

The application of the Monroe Doctrine is top io upon which volumes of speculation have been writ ten There has never been occasion to eonstrue its application with reference to Canada The famous declaration when first announced. had particular ref erence to the independent Nations of America though H has been generally contended by American statesmen that t would not permit the transfer of ownership of an American colony from one European Nation to an other There is every reason believe that the Unit ed States would not tolerate invasion of Canada for conoues, by an European Power. This much has been said by many American statesmen. and. not many years ago. Sir Wnirid Laurier then Premier of Can ada said at British colonial conference in London that the Monroe Doctrine" and the United States would protect Canada from danger of foreign aggres sion.
 The Monroe Doctrine was set forth in the am mai message Of President James Monroe to Congress m 1923. In that message President Monroe said:
 eve owe t to candor and to the amicable reia- eous existing between the United States and the Allied Powers to declare that we should consider attempt on their part to extend their system to any portion of this Hemisphere as dangerous peace and safety wih the existing colonies of dependencies Of any Eur opean power we have not interierred and shall not nterfere but with the governments which have declar ed their independence and maintained it. and whose in dependence we have on great consideration and just principles acknowledged could not view an inter- position for expressing them or controlling in any other manner ther destiny by any foreign power in any other light than as manifestation of unfriendy dispost ton toward the United States"
 Further in the same message
 .rhe American continents should no longer be sub iects for any European colonial settlement"
 President Monroe's mention of these subjects in Che words quoted which have become known to diplo- matte history as the Monroe Doctrine" occasion ed by the formation of the so-eaed Holy Alliance an alliance composed of Russia. France. Prussia and Austria to maintain the monarehcai system of govern mcnt in Europe It was supposed they desired to ex- tend their operations to the New World with special reference to the Spanish colonies that had recently gained their freedom.
 Great Britain endorsed the position of the United States. and the Holy Alliance if it had any intention to do so desisted from interfering with New World affairs
 While it may never be known just how far the United States would go in the event that Canada were attacked by foreign ioe h is not too much to say that she would protect the autonomy of Canada, and it is no, likely that she would permit the invasion of that country.
