Fairbanks IimesJ
 Right after the close of navigation there is nothing that can quite SO well accommodate the merchant the freighter teamsters. winter mining operator wood con- tractor or traveller as fall of heavy snow enough to make trail We have the promise of such iail right now and yet there are people unreasonable enough to be finding fault with the weather man. These are tho individuals who have deluded themselves into the belief that the winter is limited by the period during which the is the ground forgetting that the mercury can get just low with the ground bare as when it ls covered with mantle of the "beaut- nl"
 Judge from the right angle, is one of the greatest blessings Alaska is endowed with Without it in generous quantities mining operations In many districts could only be carried at much greater ex pense for trans portaton n the winter time would De almost impossible It is extremely doubtful, f even n Fairbanks anyone could be found with nerve colossal enough to petition Congress for an appropriation large enough to build such trails as che snow provides us with even without solicitation.
 Think before voclng that dismal protest just what this snow means coming at this convenient season There are dozens Of mining claims n the roovana and else where that before they be opened up. must wait for machinery and supplies that can only be handled at reasonable expense over snow tran. h the same condition prevailed this year did last year they would stll have to wait nearly two months.
 There are contracts for thousands of cords of wood delivery which s held until the snow tail comes Waiting for this as done last year for many weary days and the horses would be eating their heads off and the teamsters would be, in many cases idle
 The merchant welcomes the snow because he ex poets t at this time of year and has prepared for It. Seasonable weather is always opportune
 The drivers and passengers on the mail stages can make their long trips in comfort on good snow trail instead of having their digestive organs ruined by be! ing joted over the frozen mud. And think of the fun the kids and dogs have.

PRESIDENT AND KAISER

The Army and Navy Journal objects to Secretary Garrisons defense plans and avors plan proposed by the War College under which the army wil consist of 50oO0O men. We do not propose to discuss the plans. but only to draw attention point raised by this publication when t says A sorts Of autocratic pow CT have been sacrificed to the Kaiser but those &C., quainted with military affairs declare that he would not disregard the recommendation Of the German General Staff as President Wilson has the report of the War College in determining war policy"
 One may well believe that in country where mill tary ambition and necessity have dominated as they have in Germany no one. net even an Emperor would disregard the recommendations of military authority and stn be very glad to live in country where Gener al stafs and War Colleges must bring their plants to a civilian for approval with very great imDrobabil. ty that their counsel will not prevail f our army of- ncers-good men and true-had the influence in this Government that military men have had in the Ger man government for many years should find our selves soon undergoing mnitarstc preparations to an extent that would threaten the nation.

Pray. what is full Territorial gov

 Any Territory that must be gov
 erned by O set of officials three thou
 sand miles away. cuts but sorry n-
 gure. null or otherwise '- (Ketchikan
 Progressive aiiner)
 Full Territorial form Of government is government by he people who live in the Territory Its purpose IS to avoid the government Of the Territory by officials who live 5000 miles away
 If the people Of Alaska have to struggle along un' der the handcaps that are imposed by the limitations in our present organic act for several years more 1t will be because constantly shifting politicians prevent the people rom securing full Territorial form of govern nent Tho President has declared full Territorial form of government the people of Alaska through their Legislature and conventions declared for it and Congress will grant it # the Delegate asks for it It could be accomplished in three months and the next Legislature could give school law, provide munic paites with necessary authority for development-n short provide for the government Of the Territory by the Territory Federal authorities now governing the Territory because the organic act wthholds author ity rom the people to govern themselves.
 To ask for the withdrawal of the limitations from our organic net would not delay the campaign for Statehood for moment. Delegate wickersham says will take several years Of hard fighting to get state hood We want greater power for our Legislature and the people during those several years.
 The Empire is not questioning the good faith of the Progressive3ner or any Of those others who do not know what they are writing and talking about. Nevertheless they are retardng the business of deve- opng Alaska, her resources. her municipalities her schools and her civilization and win continue to do so as long as they act foil parts in Delegate wickersham political masquerade.

No Extra Session,

The presidents Intervention has

session Of congress for the purpose
of pressing to an issue the question
of cloture in the senate. This is not
the time. he urges, for a meeting OF
the houses, when there is 10 imme-
date emergency, and when the pres
ence of the lawmakers in Washing
ton might seriously embarrass the
government through the emission of
heated oratory. Cloture would GER
tainly be a poor topic for an extra
session. The immediate occasion
calls for no curtailment of the right
OF debate in the upper house. II the
supreme emergency arises and the
country is brought to the point OF
possible conflict with a foreign power
the lack of cloture in the senate will
not be an obstacle to appropriate and
ompt action.

NORTH DAKOTA DEVELOPMENT.

Many interesting facts are being
brought out concerning the states that
have been under prohibitory laws for
some years, that they may help and
encourage other states that are now
meeting the wet or dry issue and that
will at coming elections have the ques
ton to decide. The 1910 census shows
that prosperous development along
all lines in North Dakota is startling.
Not only did the population increase
so per cent in the decade from 1900
to 1910, but her wealth increased 281.9
per cent, or from $225,166,7 ISL in 1900
to 976,S14,206 in 1910; the value OF
farm products increased 211 per cent,
or from 64,252,0 900 in 1900 to 1920. 000.-
900 in 1910. Its live stock increased
In value in the same period 155 per
cent, probably a larger increase than
any other state. The crops increased
234.4 per cent. or from $53,911.41s in
1900 to $1s0,27s,872 in 1910. q per.
centage exceeded by no other state
North Dakota's agricultural wealth is
greater than that Of the seven com
bined New England states. Her bant
deposits from 1898 to 1918 increased
by more than 1000 per cent

Wool Crop to Be Large.

Prospects are favorable for q $10,.
100000 wool crop in Wyoming this
season. the greatest In years.-Wyo-
ming State Board Of Sheep Commits
sioners.
This may pass with others as fact,
but not with us, remarks the New
York World sarcastically. 1t is true
that the European war has advanced
wool prices in spite of our free-wool
tariff, but free wool took effect nearly
a year before the war broke out, n
every sheep in Wyoming was sched-
uled to die Immediately thereafter.
Every one of them had been educated
by long Republican schooling to die
under free wool and to live only under
old Schedule X. Therefore, being
very submissive to intelligent econom-
ic instruction. they all proceeded
to die at once and were dead
long before the war came, and only
the resurrection of old Schedule X
could resurrect them. II you do not
believe it, ask Senator Francis E. War
rem. He knows.

A RECENT CONVERT.
The announcement Of his CONVEX.
sion to prohibition was made At exer
cises at the Franklin union in Boston
by Ex-Governor Foss. who has been
three times elected chief executive Of
the state OF Massachusetts,.
Il have been thinking that It's about
time for me to stop voting for the H.
censed saloon" said Mr.. Foss. so
long as l make It . rule to have my
superintendents and foremen dis
charge men who are addicted to
liquor, how Inconsistent It IL for me
to support an open saloon near my
manufacturing establishment. where
the men have to go back and forth
two or three times . day.
This question Of prohibition is .
very large one. 1t may be the most
important social, political and moral
question of today. Certainly 1t is an
economic question. From an econom-
&c viewpoint, why shouldn't we have
national prohibition?
Abraham Lincoln said: You can't
have q nation half slave and half
free We can't have . nation half
wet and half dry. 1t is impossible per
fectly to enforce prohibition in .
state surrounded BY liquor states.
Il believe national prohibition 10 in
the interest Of public health. In my

sets I saw 10000 or more people
locked up In this state and $4,000. 900
