other territories which have fallen
within her sphere of operations as
result of the war. 1t is more than
probable that Great Britain will be at
war with some of it's subjects most OF
the time, just as it has been for
century. Germany was fond of saying
that she had preserved the peace for
forty-four years and that during that
period Great Britain had been almost
constantly at war.
The league of nations, we are as
sured by President Wilson, would not
interfere with such domestic ques-
tions as a revolt in Ireland, Egypt,
India, Mesopotamia, or some Of the
African colonies. 1t could not require
Great Britain to "cool off, for three
months before turning the cannon and
machine guns on the peoples of the
Upper Nile, the Gauges or the Tigris.
No "cooling-time treaty" could pre-
vent Japan from shooting down re-
bellious Koreans. Among themselves
the members of the league would have
recourse to the covenants various
means of preventing war and, no
doubt, would be able to compose many
of their differences. Meantime the
great colonial powers might be fight
ing continuously with insurgent sub
jects.
It is no part of our purpose to arouse
animosities among good friends. In
uttering our criticisms all of us should
be careful to avoid playing into the
hands of the enemy who has not yet
accepted terms of peace and who is
eager to take advantage Of any feuds
that may arise among the allies. At
the same time we should not blind our
selves to the imperfections of human
covenants. We should try to realize
how far even the best instrumental
ties are from attaining that ideal of
Justice toward which we have set our
gaze as toward guiding star. And
yet we should not be discouraged.
Out of all this maze of criticism good
will come and we shall find ourselves
measurably nearer the goal we are
striving for

THE DAILY HERALD SUSPENDS

The Cordova Daily Herald ceased
publication yesterday, after having
been in existence for nine months,
and in it's valedictory admits that Cor.
dova "can not support two daily
papers of the character which would
do the community justice"
In passing out of existence our morn
ing contemporary pays this paper the
following tribute:
1.-THE Times, which will remain in
the daily field, is as good a paper as
is published in Alaska It was here
first. Two daily papers can not pay,
and the Herald in leaving the daily
field has no regrets other than the
fact that the city at present is not
large enough to support both publica-
tons"

MANY ARIZONA
BILLS VETOED ,
BY GOVERNOR

PHOENIX, Arizona, April 1.-THE
sixty-day session of the fourth Arizona
| legislature just closed was principally
remarkable for three features, the
protracted fight over 100000 high
way legislation passed and vetoed by
Governor Campbell, then passed again
without the emergency clause barring
possibilities of referendum, the veto
| ing of a new election code and the kill
ing of a new educational code. At the
close of the session the Republican
minority predicted the governor would
again veto the road bill which took
from him the power of naming the
highway commission.
A fund of 100000 was created to
cooperate with the federal govern
ment in surveying for feasible irriga-
ton and reclamation projects, while
bill was passed to assist Washington
in national soldiers settlement
scheme and a resolution was adopted
approving Secretary Franklin K.
Lanes hundred million dollar soldiers
settlement proposal.
BY new measures enacted this ses-
sion "a land department was created,
machinery was provided to organize
power districts for irrigation purposes
and an irrigation code adopted.
Measures killed in the legislature
included one setting minimum of
$40 a week for women.
Boxing would be revived by bill
which awaits the executive signature
and which would permit ten-round
bouts where eight-ounce gloves are
used.
A new law requires the re-recording
of all Arizona cattle brands. It is
estimated that this bill will throw TO-
900 dead" brands open to use.
A budget system was provided in q
measure which was successful in the
last hours of the session.
Fraternal insurance on infants of
two years and on adults up to 60 years
is provided in house MEASURE which
the governor signed.
The hve-year limit on land leases
was increased to twenty by bill
which had stormy experience In
both houses. This measure also lifts
the one-section limit on lease holdings
and sets no maximum. 1t has been
suggested freely that 1t may draw the
governors veto.

roads carrying any amount Of liquor

VOICE OF THE ALASKA PRESS

News from Juneau told US that in
special message to the legislature
Governor Riggs had suggested that
the territory go into the transporta-
ton business.
The suggestion may serve good
purpose. 1t may scare the present
transportation companies into giving
us better service in order to silence
the suggestion, and surely that would
harm to look into the matter; for if
the present service is maintained
much longer, some such course will
have to be taken. But wouldn't it be
advisable to look into the condition
of an air mail service first? With a
good mail service, Alaskans can nut
up with great deal of Inconvenience
without grumbling much, for they are
used to neglect, especially at the hand
of our generous-in spots-govern-
ment For instance if few of the
millions that have been wasted in the
construction of the railroad to the
westward had been saved for a mail
service, everybody would have been
benefited. Anyhow, the governors
suggestion may be worth some atten-
ton on the part of the solons.-Ket-
chikan Miner.

RULE OR RUIN

course of villiication of the secretary
of the interior, Franklin K Lane. Rule
or ruin, and long has he ruled from
his political roost on the government
payroll.
His rule is at an end. While pub
licly he may dispute such state of
affairs, privately he has not the slight
est doubt that it exists. 1t is the
realization of this fact that lies be.
hind his vicious attack upon Secretary
Lane, with the apparent intention of
getting even before he removes
to return to his former domicile in
Washington.
And Fairbanks and the Fairbanks
district will be the greatest sufferer.
This section of Alaska has for years
been hanging onto its holdings await
ing the coming of the government
road to bring cheaper transportation,
cheaper fuel and the relief these
things will carry with them. Today
we are in sight of the coal fields of
the Nenana district. With reason
able appropriation this spring the
steel would stretch from Fairbanks to
the coal mines next fall and trains
would be running on regular schedule.
Now not one of us knows when
the gap will be closed. A few Re-
publican senators blocked the meas
ure containing our appropriation at
the last session of congress. Men
were thrown out of work all along
the road and expensive machinery is
standing idle, rusting in disuse, with
no assurance that it will be used for
months to come. Not satisfied with
this, Mr.. Wickersham, for purely po-
litical reasons, possibly because two
ladies voted against him at Nenana-
is now doing his best to undo all that
has already been done and block the
future development of that section of
Alaska traversed by the Alaska rail-
road and the country dependent upon
it for opening up.

been turned dowon at the pills by a
majority of Alaskans-and the people
of this division played no small part

rule in Alaska has ended, now seeks
to revenge himself by supplying his
party leaders with an excuse to with
hold governmental aid from US.
Wickersham is, or has been, attor-
ney at Washington for the people Of
Alaska, and is about to undertake to
force himself on US again in the same
capacity. Yet he does not hesitate to
initiate vicious fight against Secre-
tary Lane, Alaska's one best bet in
the United States, out Of which there
is nothing that can come which will
be of benefit to Alaskans. II he at
tains this end 1t will work incalculable
injury to Alaska, and especially to
the Fairbanks district. How long will
the people OF Alaska stand for the &C
lions Of the political demagogue, the
would-be czar Of Alaska ?-Fairbanks

IRREGULARITIES OF THE LEAGUE

One popularity of the league of ma
tons covenant seems to have ESCAPED
attention. IF we read it Alright it is an
effort to establish certain nations and
then guarantee their existence so long
as the league shall endure.
Take, for example, the case of Po-
land. Let us presume that Poland is
re-established much along the lines
of the old Poland which existed be-
fore it was divided by Russia, Austria
and Germany in the eighteenth cen
tury. The league of nations, being in
corporated in the treaty of peace,
would guarantee the territorial integ-
rity of the new Poland against all at
tacks from the outside.
Greece, Jugo-Slavia, Czecho-Slo-
vaksa, Rumania, Italia Irredenta and
all other members Of the league could
compel it to preserve their territorial
integrity from external attack. We
draw attention to this phase not by
way Of censure, but simply to empha-
size popularity of the league. 1t is
designed to prevent the old fluxations
of boundaries, to create a sort of static
world. If the league can enforce its
WILL boundaries will stand indefinitely
as the league creates them.
The only chance of change will be
in domestic instructions. Poland
might be overthrown from within, but
if any outside power sought to catch
the flying pieces the league of nations
would step in and reconstruct the ma
ton, divide it into separate sovereign
ties or parcel it out to other sovereign
ties.
Even revolutions are not apt to
cause radical changes. Let us con-
slider for moment two cases of revo.
luton which are before our very eyes.
In Korea there is a revolt against
the rule of Japan So long as the
Koreans are left to themselves they
cannot make much Roadway, but they
might triumph if they should receive
the aid of the Russians were it not for
Article 10 of the league of nations.
Just as soon as the Russians should
step in to aid the Koreans the United
States and every other member of the
league would be required to defend
the territorial integrity Of Japan.
In Egypt there is an incipient revo-
luton against Great Britain. 1t will
not 60 far. No outside aid can be OBJ
tanned and the English will be able to
crush this revolt as easily as they
crushed several revolts which broke
out in Egypt during the war, following
the annexation of that vast and fertile
land with its teeming millions by
Great Britain.
In this connection we cannot fail to
note another popularity. In spite Of
the league to maintain peace there is
apt to be state Of war somewhere In
the world all the time The British
empire occupies great part Of the
earth's surface and Great Britain, &C
cording to the league plan. soon will
become q mandatory for numerous
colonies taken from Germany and for

Delegate Wickersham is making
some very serious accusations against
a former member Of the Alaskan engi-
neering commission, who is now gov
ernor of the territory. What's the big
idea, anyway? We had supposed that
the election was over. We don't want
this railway project dragged into any
political fight, for that means a con-
gressional investigation, which will
accomplish nothing, but may cause a
delay. And the people of this COM
munity don't want any more delay in
construction work on this road. There
are lots of idle men about town who
want to get to work, and this town is
interested in seeing that they get on
the job as soon as the appropriation
is vailable.-Anchorage Times.

Manning outlined a plan by which
/. farmers might be assisted in, holding
their present cotton without putting
100 much burden on banks, and urged
the advisability of reducing the acre
age. He also suggested that congress.
be requested to pass law requiring
