The true principles oi conservation are served when the coal and oil that can be del livered cheapest and with least eXertion and smallest tax o1l transportation facilities to ;i given point. The only way. i'd. save coal and oil, that is tdl reduce the quantity used.

OPEN ALASKA COAL.
(From Juneau Empire)

It is not strange that Cor dova, Valdez and Seward arc unanimous in their desire that the terms of the Walsh bin should be made applicable to Alaska. These towns are among those most directly in terested in the development of Alaska coal and oil fields. The Walsh bill is designed to pro- mote the development of the coal and oil lands of the States. and the same economic laws that obtain in the States also operate in Alaska. There is absolutely no reason that could be urged for the Walsh plan in the States that would not also apply to the situation in Alas ka.
 Further than that, the re- sources of Alaska are not val uable to the government from a landlords standpoint. They are only valuable to the gov ernment and the people of the United States when utilized and giving profitable employ ment to men and women who thereby are given opportunity to add to the producing and, consuming power of the coun- fh}lBg ff}lBBgsra raRRdr Radrrtt8Qgtt5h rtQ the volume of it's the market which she affords for $30,000,000 or more of their products and the gold, food stuffs and other products which she sends them for their use. Every year that Alaska $ resources are kept locked up, therefore, is a year of waste.
 X <
 With the United States fac ing a serious coal shortage, the need becomes imperative for opening the Alaska fields. Coal and copper form two of the most vital needs for carry ing on the war, They are both among the largest natural re sources of Alaska. Copper is being mined more extensively each year, large properties having been opened mp, due to the fact that it was not sub

APPOINTMENTS ARE
 CAUSING MUCH MlRTH

NOME, Dec. 2.-All Seward Penin- sula is laughing at the appointments of Judge Holzheimer. His first ap- pointment was Thomas McGann as clerk of the court. McGann, who was former senator from the second div ision. supported Wickersham against Sulzer, having declared publicly that when he knew Sulzer in the legisla- ture, Sulzer represented all the cor poration interests in the territory.
 The next appointment was Hugh ONeill, who also supported Wicker sham. ONeill was selected by Holz- heimer to succeed James Frawley, Democrat as U. S. Commissioner.
 Aspirants for these positions Tn the Democratic ranks who supported Sulzer for delegate are furious, de- claring the Democratic party IS De- ing detrayed by small crowd, or poll ticians at Juneau.
