.INvIsIBLn eoyERNMENT.'

 Some think that Elihu Root exaggerated when he said that for forty years State Government has been as representative as the Government of Venezuela
 The Brooklyn Eagle. for Instance calls this hyper bole" in passage quoted elsewhere 1t says our Gov ernors have been pretty free of bosssm Flower and Morton because they were rich; Hi and Ode because they were bosses themselves; Tden, Cleveland, Roose welt and Glynn as strong men, Higgins had much of independence" Hughes "dehed everybody and won out"
 For the record it is worth while to repeat that the 'hyperbole' is not Mir. Roots His picturesque phrase merely drives home the truth.
 Since Tiden's war on corrupt bosses, no Governor York has been able to do his best free Of boss es or the meaker men the converse statement would be absurd. Hl dealt with other bosses, and was in the end drowned by them Odell was GoTernorboss; but he had to satisfy the lesser chiefs Cleveland dealt with Crocker frankly; even asking him to keep Thomas F. Grady from Albany for his personal comfort Roose- welt promised before election Ion all matters of import ance o consult Senator Platt leader of the party kept his pledge fairly for impusiye man, and was "sheved" in the Vice Presidency by Patt against his own mpotent protests Huges renominated in 1908 because he was necessary the national campaign, but driven of politics in his second terna calamity from which his party has not recovered.
 So much for Invisible Government" affecting Gov ernors. It affects Legislatures by rewarding plant tools and denying nomination to of independence It affects State Departments by naming the tail Of the ticket the creatures of bosses, who use the busi ness offices of the State nests for patronage, and sometimes as lairs for iobbery.
 Toward Invisible Government the duty of the Con- stitutona Convention fortunately clear It is to leave the Direct Primary legislative action under tho pres sure of public opinion It is to reorganize the offices of the State for business efficiency and responsibility to the Governor and through him to the people It is to cut off the tail of the ticket in which bosslsm has it's will of the departments by the Short Ballot.
 Organize business system for the State, headed by Governor who can govern through control of the executive departments and we shall have taken long step toward the abolition of Invisible Government

THE HANDICAP OF TANANA
Fairbanks Times.)

Fairbanks pimes)
 One of the chief obstacles in the way of more ex- pensve operating in the Fairbanks district is the cessiye cost of fuel The high price of provisions and other supplies is burden which has increased mater ay since the early days of the camp but the fuel prob lem is one which renders operations extremely hazard ous. and in many impossible
 This is a condition which should not exist in any part of Alaska There is abundance of water power in nearly every district and vast quantities of coal are scattered the Territory awaiting development With either of these of cheap power made available the number of working mines would increase rapidly. There many hard rock properties adjacent to Fair banks and thousands of of placer ground through out the Panama Valley which be worked profitably idle claims of known value the nearby creeks which will contribute largely to the output of the camp when ever this single item of cost is reduced
 But until we have cheaper power we cannot hope for material improvement in local conditions With the cost of wood increasing annually and the of the richer paystreaks diminishing steadily cannot reasonably expect increased activity cannot, in fact, hope to maintain an even prosperity The camp is declining and h will continue to decline until cheap power comes to take the place of the present expensive method of
 This is condition which at once makes itself ap- parent to newcomers, especially to men familiar with modern methods of operating They realize the possi- bilities of ow-priced power and while they may not the extent and value of the goldbearng ad- acent to Fairbanks 1t does not take them long to grasp the importance of lessening the power burden under which the operators of district compelled to la bor. They realize perhaps than do ourselves, the need of improved working conditions.
 The subject is requiring pubicity-lots of pub licity-much more than we give it through the linn tied channels at command. We want the members of Congress to know that central power plant is - porant Interior Alaska the railroad which the gov ernment is constructing want them to be made aware of our needs so that they may act ntegently the question when 1t before them for consd- eration, it undoubtedly will during the next session of Congress.

Senator Root admittedly the strongest man in the New York State constitutional convention. won his fight for shorter ballot only in part He lost the At torneyGeuera He urged that only the Governor Lieu tenant-Goveruor and the Comptroller be elective He went SO far as to favor the abolition of the office of AttorneyGeuerai rather than to have him elected by tho people He said that if he were Governor of New York he would rather have Attcrney-General than to have one that was not answerable to the Governor He has stood first and last for fixed responsibility in government
 However. n appears that the constitution that will be submitted to the people will provide for the election of the Governor LeutenantGovernor, Comptroller and AttorneyGeneral The State Treasurer Engineer su- perintendent of Education. Insurance Commissioners various inspectors commissions and heads Of all other departments win be appointed by the Governor # the proposed constitution is adopted.
 Senator Root won an important fight for the self government of municipalities This has been one of the tme-old bones ot contention in New York The State has insisted upon retaining control over New York City. In this fight. Senator Root espaused the cause for which Tammany has contended for decades. He urged the right of New York City to govern herself r respective of whether she did it we'll i'll, and he is said to have won substantial victory but not so great as he had hoped
 --- State is vet to be fought out-and that the question of representation in the State Legislature New York City contains clear majority of the population of New York State but the majority against her in the State Legislature ia large. The people Upstate" have in- sisted upon retaining control in the Legislature. The metropolitan delegation in the Constitutional convention contend that representation in the Legislature should be based upon population If they win that and the Leg ,t,-e ,hi5es bv the constitution greater New York win have legislative majority hereafter Upstate
 members of the convention contend that territorial area should be taken into account in the distribution of leg .sative representation Whether they will be able to hold out against the ncsve arguments that being advanced by Senator Root and others that government is for people rather than acres remains to be seen
 While these matters are all regarded as important heretofore they have been subordinate to the shorter ballot contest To this than anything else sena' tor Root has given attention and apparently the con- vention has contracted the habit of giving first place in It's deliberations to whatever happens to be on Sen ator Roots mind

TURN ABOUT IS FAIR PLAY"

The Seattle Times says Alaska is now furnishing Washington State with officials in addition to the oth CT good things that have gone to Seattle from this Territory This statement is based on the fact that since the appointment of Mrs W. A. Holzheimer to be one of the Washington commissioners to the Panama Pacific exposition her husband one of the best known lawyers and Democratic leaders of Seattle has become
 resident Of Juneau No doubt the novelty of the sit uation appeals strongly to those the Outside It is also novel to Alaskans But after all. Washington State has nothing about which to object That State has furnished many officials Alaska, and there is an old saw which that turn about is farDlay
 However. there Is another special reason why Wash ington has no grievance. Alaska is furnishing the State of Washington most gracious as well as talent ed official In this instance least, the obligations are all on the side of the State which Mrs Holzheimer IS temporarily serving.

SHIPPING BUTTER TO AUSTRALIA

Last winter and the winter before American high tarn papers were commsseratng with the farmers be- cause Australian butter shipped to the United States and sold at prices less than it could be made in this country It was all due to the Underwood tariff of course But the whirligg Of time has changed things This summer which. of course. is Australa's winter butter is being shipped from the United States to Aus trala In other words. things have worked about in such way that American farmers selling their sur plus while it is fresh. instead of carrying it in cold storage and in our winter can buy from the summer oversupply Of the Antpodes If this is result of the removal of the artificial barriers to commerce the result might be fairly satisfactory in the end to both producers and consumers.

 within five per cent of normal at the first of July with the advance continuing.
