 The commissioners doubted the right 0f McLaushhn 10 name who should serve. but when they got into the records it was apparent that if man tandoned an office, they could declare 1t vacant, but when one was unavoiaably absent, as at war. the office could not be vacated, because if the man elected should return any lime within the period, the office would still be his, and that he had a right to name who should serve in his absence. provided he named ono well qualified to handle the affairs.
 Mclaughlin consulted with some Of the older members of the bar and with some of his friends, and then reached the decision to have Judge Sampler represent him as city attor- ney in his absence. Judge Sumter has

SOUTH CAROLINA NULLlFiES.

First it was Mississippi, then Vir- einia, next Kentucky, and now it is South Carolina that ratifies the pro- hibitiOn amendment The circum- stances are piquant in their sugges- tion, and one may rank them accord ing to his relish. To some it may seem more noteworthy that the state which was the home of Jefferson Davis should be the first to ratify this amendment than it is that the state which was the home of Thomas Jeffer- son should be the second. To some others, it may seem more noteworthy still that the bourbon state of Ken lucky should achieve the alacrity ot being third. Again, the action of South Carolina seems not to be de- prived of transcending significance by reason of the circumstance that its place in the procession is fourth. South Carolina is the home of nullifi- cation, and it's action supplies what ever may have been lacking to perfect the notification of the state right doc Urine as an axiom of our politics. This, of course, is not to say that the validity of that axiom is affected by the action of all these states. It is merely to say that, having been sc sedulously set aside in these four states, the doctrine of state rights, as a pertinent consideration in the prob lems of government, has been rele gated to the museum of philosophical antiquities. It still remains available as a subject of academic disquisitior and sophomoric debate. Men will lont discuss, inevitably, whether its reigi has been promotive or obstructive tf our political and social progress. Blu
 all other interests than this 1t ha lost. It can no longer be offered as al argument for or against governments
 measures, for the reason that the pet
 pie among whom it was reverence
 have repudiated it as a touchstone
 wisdom and expedience.

PEACE PLANS CALLED OFF

According to our Associated Press dispatches of today a separate peace
 between Germany and Russia seems now to be improbable, not to say inn possible. Germany insists on it's or
 1ginal demands, and Russia, if the
 statements of Trotzky may be relied on, insists on it's rejection of them.
 But If the prospect of a separate peace
 between Germany and Russia has re- ceded to the vanishing point, two other prospects have become visible. @One is that a peace may be made be- tween Germany and the Ukraine, and the other is that Austria, actin. in- dependently of Germany, may make a peace with both the Ukraine and Rus sia. Of these two prospects, the last named one would seem to be the more
 likely of realization. Obviously hofb are making particular and extraordin- ary efforts to come to an agreement with the Ukraine, their reason being. Of course, the desire to get access 10 the grain that the Ukraine is supposed to possess. For Austria at least, this prospect is the sole ray of hope. Count [zernin admitted that Austria is starv- ing, and he admitted, too that it was to the Ukraine that Austria was look ing as the only source from which re- lief was to be obtained within the sEort time made necessary by the hunger of the Austrian people. If Austria should succeed in making peace with the Ukraine and in getting the relief which it hopes for, it would probably continue to stand by the side ot Germany as against it's western enemies If it should fail in that dip1o-, matic effort, it's assertion of Germany IS to be regarded as an early possibil- 1ty, to say the least. Thus the nego-l P .. .o tion between Austria and the 2yloraiue is, for the moment, one of the .ulomentous details of the situa- ton

PROMISING FIELD FUR
 DISCHARGED SOLDIERS

WASHINGTON, D. C., Feb. 9.-The last American frontier, that land where man goes seeking his fortune, is to be found now in Alaska in the vast new areas which will soon be tapped by the government railroad now under construction.
 The returning soldier looking for a job, or seeking his fortune, will set his face toward this new country, which includes 65,0O0,00 acres of po- tential agricultural land now covered by meager growth of timber
 This land, says Secretary of Labor Wilson, must be considered as an i'm portant factor in employment for the returning soldier. Wilson has assigned experts to survey conditions and pro pose plans.
 Benton Mackaye of the department of the forest service sets forth the op- portunities in Alaska.
 'In view of the combination of min eral, forests and agricultural re sources" says the report, Alaska should present one of the most prom ising areas now left on the globe fol those seeking new start in life The T government railroad is the first biz step in this development But if thi:
 new country is to be an opportunit! for the soldier and the worker, and no
 for the speculator, colonization pol icy must be the next step in it development"
 Mackaye calls attention to tn
 method employed after the Civil Wa
 to facilitate settlement on public land } when each honorably discharged SO : dier was given Hand scrip" whicl , entitled him to choose 160 acres c 3 any public lands not occupied. Instea ] of inducing settlement and colonizs
The Cordova daily times., 1918-02-15

tion, the scrip was purchased at dis counts, and was used by big corpora tions to obtain possession of public re- sources. This method, or anything similar to it, which would play into the hands of speculation, says the secretary of labor, must be avoided.
 The secretary of labor favors a colonization policy. Plans to reclaim cut-over forest lands, swamp lands, and other public areas, have been worked out in considerable detail. One plan is for a colony to work 100000 acres of productive forest land. By properly timbering this land, 50 years would be required to take off the mature timber, by the end of which
