VOICE OF THE ALASKA PRESS

Wrangell wants Dry Strait dredged and Petersburg wants Wrangell Mar rows deepened, and there seems to be a diposition to make the proposals matters of community rivalry. Why not both? It would serve commerce to have both waterways improved, and then both towns and the other sections of Alaska could be happy.-Juneau Empire.
 The appeal of the farmers and homesteaders In the interior of Alaska for support in their effort to have the SO-rod strip regulation of the land of- flee abolished should be met with g full and free response by the territory. These men have worked hard in their attempt heretofore to get this obnox- ious clause of the homestead laws changed and just when 1t seemed as though success would crown their ef- forts, the death of Mir. Sulzer, who had been actively in charge of the matter, upset all their plans and leaves them where they first started-Fairbanks Citizen.

BOMBERS BATTLE SECRET
 SERVICE

Perhaps it has occurred to not few that our estimable United States secret service has not been making much progress in unrevaling the bomb plot It is not living up to the record made for it by the fertile-minded story tellers whose chronicles appear in al most every monthly and weekly maga- zine. We had begun to have an al- most lively admiration for the service, for had we not been assured that the wonder-working German espionage system absolutely collapsed in the hands of our secret agents?
 One of the secrets of the service may as we'll be told offhand. The German espionage system in this coun- try was a farce. It existed only in esmbryo when the European war broke out. It was a makeshift affair at best, even after we entered the war. It was so easily overthroWn that it became the familiar jest of our current humOrists The time arrived when the typical German spy was pie tured by our wits as carrying diary about with him and expressing him. self as mystified, when arrested, that all his plottings should be as an open book to our official sleuths.
 The secret service, confronted by a system which shows genuine cunning, Is baffled It is crying loudly for help. It has asked the public to furnish it with tips It points out that during the war many traitors and spies were trapped with the aid of clews supplied by wholesale through private chan nels.
 It is not our intention to deride the secret service It has among it's per sonnel many brilliant minds. It has ac- cimplished marvels now and then. The fact that it appeals to the public for help is a sign, not of stupidity, but of perspicacity. By all means the public should render whatever assistance it can. No one who has the slightest sus- picion that he has clew should con- ceal it from the authorities It is more than probable that the mystery will be solved and solved with dash by one of these bits of information.
 It has been urged that the govern ment's secret service activities be brought under the control of single bureau. Whether that be the best method or not it must be manifest that reorganization of some kind is essen tial If the nation is face to face with an organization of Nihilists which pro- poses to operate on the scale of it's Russian counterpart in the days of the czars, the time has come when all the police Investigating agencies of the nation, the states and the cities should be pooled in some effective arrange ment
