THURSDAY, MARCH I6, 1916.

In a summary of the work oi the otnce of chef counsel for the territory in the matter of the col lection oi revenues, just received Attorney ] H. Cobb, chief coun- SCI, states that back taxes in the first and third dlyIsIons have been
 nearly cleared up and there are only a few against whom suits Will have 10 be brought III those
 TWO divisions but, in the second
 and fourth divisions, the situa- ton IS different. Here, the chief counsel complains that, although
 the "laundries, telephone com panies, attorneys, doctors and au- t0nObl.es have done fairly well in the matter of returns and pay
 ments, but very few payments, or even returns, have been made
 by the mining industry. Many
 operators, he says, who are known to have made large profits have so far not only failed to pay their taxes, but have also ignor- ed all letters sent from this office demanding a compliances with the law" The report then plain lively remarks: Tn some sections there appears to be an impress sion that the laws passed by the people of Alaska through their legislature are mere jokes and that they can be safely ignored. Steps will shortly be taken. to cor rect this view" Just so, and we submit that it is high time that steps" were taken. Indeed, it is to be wondered at that steps have not been taken before, this, unless the law is really the joke" that the honorable chief counsel admits some people thing 1t is. The laundries have come through very nicely, also the telephone companies and doctors and law

GERMAN SNIPERS.

Sniping among the Germans is a fine art, and those detailed to do this work are almost diaboli- cally clever in their methods of concealment. They decorate themselves with the foliage of trees, darken their faces and hands, or splash their uniforms with oil or dirt, SO that standing under the speckled shadow of a tree they look like part of the scenery. They are very careful, too, not to give themselves away by the direction of their shots.
 The sniper never shoots straight before him, but always in a slanting direction and not fairly long distance to the right or left so that he need not look over the object which obscures

yers, but the biggest, most lucra- tive and most vital industry of the country has not paid but a very few payments and has, further, ignored completely the demands of the territory that they shall pay their just taxes just the same as the hard work ing laundryman. In fact 1t truly appears that the chief counsel al lows his office to be held by the mining operators of the second and fourth divisions almost as cheap as they apparently hold the laws. Indeed, it appears that the chief counsel might just as we'll have included his own office along with the laws viewed as mere jokes" With all deference to the good intentions of the amiable attorney we would like to know why he has allowed the operators to ignore not only their taxes but also his demand as the leg Il representative of the common wealth, that they shall pay what the law justly requires,
 Why does the chief counsel of the territory sit calmly by and al low the law, and also his com munications, tg be laughed at by the people who, as the exploiters of the chief industry of the coun- try, are by all odds entitled to pay the largest share of the territorial revenues? With some men in the office of territorial counsel, the men who are draining the coun try of its chief wealth and giving practically nothing in return for the privilege, would be brought up with round turn and taught that the laws as we'll as the com munications of the chief legal of-
 icer of the territory were any thing but jokes MT. Cobb sub mits that 1t has been the policy of the territorial offices to admin ister the law in a spirit of fairness and liberality' but 1t seems to us to be stretching hb- erality to a fine point of atten- nation when he allows both the law and the spirit of fairness dis played by the officials to be mocked and set aside. Mr. Co0G has done some excellent work in the interest of the territory and is deserving Of all credi. therefore but we submit that he would have made his report ap- pear a much more creditable do cument had there been inserted an item stating that steps have been taken to force those who had ignored the law and the demands of the chief counsel, made Tn spirit of fairness and liberahty to come to immediate terms, if for no other reason than to -et them know that the law of the land and the communications of the chief legal officer of the ter ritory may not be ignored with impunity.
