WICK's DEVELOPMENT BOARD

The people of Alaska should watch the so-called development board leg islation that is pending in Congress with more than usual care. It is fraught with dangerous possibilities. The danger is all the greater because the end sought to be attained by the Secretary of the Interior is merito-
 rious, and the measure prepared in his department is not only right in principle but satisfactory in detail. The bill introduced by Delegate Wick
 ersham in the last Congress, which is presumably the same bill that he in- troduced at the beginning of the pres
 ent Congressional session contains provisions that should be eliminated because they bestow upon the devel- Iopment board functions that should be retained by the people of the Ter ritory.
 The Wickersham bill continues the Federal license tax law and gives the development board full control over the Alaska fund which is produced by a Federal tax on the people of
 Alaska. It gives the development board control over Alaska educational and many other matters that are pro- per subjects for Territorial control. The bill practically provides Federal commission government instead of full territorial form of government. It contains far too much of the origi- nal commission idea that was the cen- tral idea of the original Gale bill, pre- pared bsaudge Wickersham, and sub sequentIy included in the Beveridge bill, and leaves too little room for self-government.
 What Alaska needs above all else is full Territorial form of govern- ment." This should be provided for first, and the development board should have conferred upon it those functions that are purely Federal in their character. Not thing that should be left for the people of Alas ka should be included in the enumer- ation of those powers that are given the development board.
 The people of Alaska should pro- test against the passage of the Wick ersham development board bill in it's present form. If such measure is to be passed before the bill enlarg- ing the powers of the Territorial gov ernment is passed, by all means let it be the Chamberlain bill, which in general turns all purely Federal mat ters in Alaska over to the develop ment board.-Empire.

 Now comes the defeat of the Brit ish operating against Constantinopie. after the loss of more than two hun dred thousand lifes." What are the Mohammedans in Egypt, Arabia and Persia to think of this collapse of an arms thought invincible? Are they not likely to conclude that Britain is mortal and about to be defeated They believe what they see and do not count upon such remote and invisible resources as finances and economic pressure. In struggle between Mo- hammedan and Christian at the gates of Islam the Christian has been beat en back with enormous losses. This news will reach the farthest corners of the British Empire in the East, and the effect of the news may be worse than the actual defeat at Gallipoli.
 Nothing but dire necessity could have forced Great Britain to take this step, which so greatly impairs her prestige throughout the East. The certainty that greater losses were in prospect, that the men at Gallipoli were in danger of death by thirst and exhaustion and the fear that the re- inforced Turks might at any time actually drive the British forces into the sea, were the causes for the with drawal. Constantinople stands, and the crescent floats def1antly over St. Sophia. The most formidable attempt ever made to drive the Turk from Eu- rope has failed, at least for the time being, and every believer in Mahomet from Constantinople to Borneo may hail it as signal for revolt.

THE MINERS FRIEND.

Our local "trust-buster" is making a strong plea for the patronage of the miners of Valdez district. While in Juneau John Frame ran paper for the employers, the. purpose of which was to break the then newly organized miners union.
 He failed of course, as the union was too strong for him, and founded too solidly upon the principles of get ting fair wage for days work, but nevertheless John fought the miners consistently and bitterly for months.
 And while we are at it, why not tell them John, how you were once de voted Guggenheim slave; how you ''bent the sycophantic knee to the big interests for years. and now are so bitterly opposed to all corpora tions?
 Not that we blame you, John. for we believe that Guggenheim stunt was the only sensible thing you have ever done in your long newspaper ca reer; but tell us how you come to be . "Guggy" in Cordova and an "anti- Guggy" in Valdez.
 We would be tickled to death to print some of your union-busting articles, John, just to show the min CTS, from your own words, what true, loyal friend you have always been to the laboring man.

From a material standpoint the success or failure of no legitimate newspaper is involved in the election day fortunes of any political party, but it's very life is involved in the ma terial welfare of it's community. Those who attempt to brand a real news paper as an organ, or fools if they take those who make the newspaper to be fools. Any legitimate newspa- per, having a general circulation and patronage, can afford to defy a political organization, but no legitimate newspaper can afford not to support what 1t believes to be for the general welfare. Nor can it af- ford to see injustice done or merit go unrewarded except over it's protest.

BRITAIN's COLOSSAL DEFEAT.

The withdrawal of 250,00O mon from the Anzac and Suvla region Is nothing else than colossal defeat for Great Britain-a defeat that may have the most serious consequences throughout Islam.
 The policy of Great Britain up to the beginning of the present war was to conciliate the Mohammedans, while at the same time impressing them with the pomp and military power of the British empire. Like the Romans. the British have carefully respected the religions and religious worship of subject peoples. Any god, worshiped in any fashion, was agree able to the conquerors SO long as the money rolled in and their grip on the territory and government was hndis- turbed At the same time insurrec- tion was broken with ruthlessness that made the Roman name terror throua. out the world When the Ro- mans were found to be mortal and easily defeated the empire went to pieces ii, 8 dozen places. '','.: i'.-.
 The present war compelled Great Britain to attack the very heart of Is- 1am. The attempt to take Constsn- tinople meant the intended ovcrta ,w of the capital of Islam and the hun,il- iation, perhaps the execution of the head of the church. There was ap- prehension throughout the Mobam- nedan world, which the British gov ernors and agents met with consum- mate skill They were force1 to cope with German propagandists every where, but succeeded in preventing any serious revolt in the empire. That all was not well however was proved when the Arab tribes in Arabia and Aesopotamia turned against the Brit ish after leading them against the Turks, and nearly destroyed the ex- petition against Bagdad. The Brit ish forces in Mesopotamia are now

THE BRUTE INSTINCT OF MAN

. Who is it in Fairbanks who de- lights to torture animals? Who is the wholesale dog poisoner of this city to whom is attributed the death of many valuable animals? These are questions which have been asked by many Fairbanksans more than once and it is probable that he would be harshly dealt with by owners of the dogs, or by the authorities if the id entity could once be discovered.
 Worse than the poisoners of dogs, however, is the man or child who delights to see dog suffer. For in poisoning dogs the poisoners occa- sion loss to the owners of the animal excepting the fact that the dog loses it's life. But the person who puts turpentine or other skin irritating substances on. a dog just to see it suffer is worse yet.
 ' Kids tricks, they call it. And yet, what an atmosphere of cruelty must surround that "kid" in it's home life if it persists in practicing such atrocities. And even grown men and women have been known to "turpentine" dog just to see it run around the block and hear it yelp.
 It is said that man reverts to the savage once his brute instincts are aroused. He deliberately does things which he knows will cause suffer- ing to the lower animals which hap pen to be in his power. Nobody planes a person for having little fun, but the person who deliberately tortures animals in the pursuit of a good time is not to be tolerated.
 This story is occasioned by the fact that the pet dog of well known Fairbanks ladie came home one day last week in a terrible state of suffering. It had been "turpentined," the fluid having been distributed all over it's body. It's breast was raw where the turpentine had been applied. The lady, of course had done all she could to the suffering of her pet, but she says that if she could find the brute who applied the turpentine she would try to cause him just as much suffering in any way she could, be it man. woman or child. For 8 child who is old enough, to know. the effect of putting turpen- tine on dog also knows that it Is wrong to do so. -ns e>.s.ay''#'i

If Delegate Wickersham were in favor of self-government for the peo- pie of Alaska he would press self government measure before confer ring practically all of the powers of government that are worth while upon Federal board. Else he would strike from his development board measure all those powers that prop erly belong to the people of Alaska.

The people of Alaska will not get Statehood until the rank and file of the people demand it. Thus far only Wickersham machine politicians and jim crow papers are asking for imre. diate Statehood-and they are asking for it in order to head of a demand for self-government for the Territory.

Shortage of Paper In England May

LONDON, Feb. 20.-The shortage of
paper caused by the war may lead to
the reintroduction of the banished
school slate. or specially prepared
board substitute. The hygienic objec-
ton is met by the assertion that with
proper safeguards. such as the insist
ence upon the use of the sponge and
the retention by each child of its own
slate, the likelihood Of infection Is
reduced to a minimum. The trouble
has always been that sponges are re
garded by the average child in the
light of superfluity.
