GOING BEHIND THE ELECTION OF 1916
(San Francisco Bulletinl

(San Francl6CO Bulletnl
 Something like declared between Sec retary Baker and his assailants when he took lunch with Senator Chamberlain last Wednesday, Perhaps is no than truce. Certainly it ought not be if Chamberlain and his friends persist in theil attempt take part of the Presidential power away from MT Wilson.
 The movement which to head last week with MT Roosevelts dash Washington and the of the War Cabinet scheme has elicted comment The New York Outlook MT Roosevelt's dynasc organ, attempts to rout his and Mr Chamberains critics by crying treason which is of course, merely hysteria. The New York Public speaks of the Chamberlain bill nothing less thar bold coup deetat by the privileged classes of this country to overturn the election of 1916.'
 The privileged classes" are rather numerous. They were all at Washington, and they did not all know what going there. But whether not they responsible it is plain that the Publc7 diagnosis is right in that attempt actually was made to limit the power of the President by compel ing him to place in almost supreme power men whom he would not have appointed of his free will Had the attempt been successful it would have es tabIished precedent which might well make mock cry of system of popular elections. The President in power because majority of his fellow citizens voted for him in 1916. At that time the majority bellicose than Mir. Wilson is now, and there is to think that it has travelled more rapidly than he has-not sufficient at an! rate, for calling him to divide his power with those who defeated in 1916.
 The Congressional elections this fall will be ar index to the country's opinion of MT. Wilson's poll cies. Honest opponents and critics of the Admins tration will be content to wait until then.

PATRIOTIC ALASKA

 Alaska has not yet been called upon to furnish her quota of men for the army through the WorKhe of the draft law and there appears to be little chance of drawing in the future When it comes, un- less an attempt made to use the drafted men III maintaining the several military posts in the Terri tory to relieve soldiers now on duty here, there will he found as strong vigorous and willing body of voung men as any section of the United States can produce ready answer the call but they will insist on active duty the front Already many young men of military registered under the con scription act impatient the delay, have enlisted number having paid their way to the States to be inducted into some particular branch of the military service How great the number of these who have already entered service is very difficult to as certain but is large. for there is not newspaper in the Territory what in almost every issue names one or more young who have left their respec- tive homes to go the States to enlist. Probably Alaska has furnished in proportion to it's population a greater number or volunteers thdn any ol the States of the Union.
 In addition to furnishing men, the Territory has been more than liberal with it's money. To the Christmas Fund. Tobacco Fund and the Red Cross Alaska has contributed more per capita than any other section of the country. and if the rest of the nation had subscribed in proportion to it's popula tion, the Liberty Loan Bonds with the hbera1ty of people Alaska, but one loan would have had to be floated finance the entire war.

Wheatless and meatless days have become fixed institution throughout the Territory and the saving of food has already be considerable item.
 By every possible means the people Of Alaska are displaying the intense patriotism and love Of coun try which anmates them, and they will respond as promptly and liberay in the future they have in the past and Alaskans have just cause to feel proud of their country and it's people

 justly been sung; They've proved themselves worthy of fame But what of the masses-the com

MORE THAN A NAVAL VICTORY

The sinking of the Goeben and the Breslau may in time, prove be a matter of much greater importance than would be indicated if the event considered simply naval victory. They the only important fighting ships possessed by the Turkish government, but, being manned and com manded by the Germans they were something more than Turkish.
 Nobody doubt what would have been made of them if there had been trouble between the governments Constannope and Berlin. Their guns commanded the Turkish capital and the Kaiser commanded the ships Independent action by Turkey will be much easier than the Bresau is on the bottom and the Goeben ashore.

 There is coal in Alaska, plenty it, but it lie in the ground waiting for the human energy to ge it out Why? That is the question to which the Alas ka Bureau of the Seattle Chamber of Commerce seeking It has just issued two informing ooklets the subject of Alaskan development
 It seems that helpful legislation is needed to stim ulate activity. The government now is constructing a railroad line that will tap of the coal fields But that is clearly not enough Men are going to put money and hard work into such a hazard a. coal mining in that region unless they have a reason ably fair field for getting decent return for theil investment. The thing do is to change the laws if they unduly hinder and hamper
 Alaska is a land of great possibilities and Uncle sam should give such encouragement as will aid ir development. while at the time safeguarding the interests of the people. This should not be difficult matter and we believe the Alaska Bureau IS doing good work in calling attention the defect. that exist.
