SEATTLE BOOSTERS ARE
 WORKING HARD TO PLACE
 ALASKA IN FRONT RANKS

Senators and representatives at Washington will receive a deluge of mail pertaining to Alaska legislation, if the plans of J. L. McPherson. man ager of the Alaska Bureau of the &c., attle Chamber of Commerce are car rled to their ultimate end. McPher- cons plan is to have the leading Sc attle business men and firms have their Eastern correspondents ask all their representatives in Congress to vote for certain specified legislation which is now pending, says the Seat de Times.
 The letters written to the legisla- tors will call attention to the fact that he Alaskan commerce for the calen- lar year 1915 was S75OoO,OO0, about s9,OOOOOO in excess of last year, and ieyeral millions in excess Of the total trade of the United States with China, It will be pointed out that the depart ments have asked for certian appro- priatlons for the coming year, and the egislatcrs will be asked to vote for them.
 The specific appropriations on which the legislators will be memor- alized are as follows:
 Continuance of the government rail. oad construction, sS.24762O; aids to 'avigatlon, vessels and surveys. ST. )OS.517; wagon roads. maintenance md construction. S320OOO; geologi. ,al surveys. S1OO.OOO; education and medical relief of natives, S290,0o0; able and telegraph. maintenance, betterments. Ss5O.OOO; protection O. fisheries. vessels and launches, ESQ., )OO: public land surveys, S5O.000.
 Besides the leading business men, he different civic organizations have been asked to cooperate with the Al ska Bureau in its work. Seattle irms are sending frcm thirty to 25O etters each to their Eastern cores ,ondents. The letters are signed by he heads of the firms. but so as to void duplication, the work of typing hem is being done at the Alaska Blu eau. which. with the large assort. nent of individual stationery. has as- umed the appearance of paper sup ply house exhibit
 The bureau hopes that all citizens 'aving influential friends throughout he country will cooperate in thi' movement and advise the bureau Of he names of the persons to whom hey are writing. SO that complete 'ecord may be kept.
 Practically every large firm in Seat le is now sending ou. letters to var. 'ous individuals calling attention tc he. great northern country.

but Mir. Ford permitted himself to be drawn into grave blunders vitiat- irg the peace expedition. The chief blunder was the presence and influ- ence Of foreigners in the American expedition. No members of the bel ligerents should have been connected with 1t. This naturally alienated ser ious consideration
 Under the circumstances the body was too large-a small, but represen- tatlve American commission coming with Mir. Ford might have achieved something tangible. There was no sense in the haphazzard way.
 Then the blunder of critlcising President Wilson's national defense policy made the American expedition not only hopeless. but positively dan gerous. I would have declined to
