French and British foreign ofices rela-
tive TO the future status Of North Africa
"a matter of great importance to the
three Powers. all OF which have Medi-
terranean and Atlantic interests.
Negotiations which began in Paris
early during the conference with the
visit of Count Romanones have about
reached conclusion with Alfonsos
return to Madrid. An accord tending
toward the dissolution OF the interna-
tioral regime In Tangier and the adj
1ustment of the vexed Moroccan prob
lem may shortly be announced--a sort
OF solution which will put an end to the
very cumbersome arrangement made be-
fore the war to please Germany.
Germany having renounced all claims
to North Africa In the peace treaty. some
new arrangement was considered. Spain
has been working for a close accord
with Great Britain and France and Of

military guarantee to france for the
security of her eastern frontier in re-
turn for French complaisance in Morocco

D dealt with BY q new resolution Of rati-
ncatfon.
On this basis the Administration forces
have assumed that they would be able TO
move reconsideration. get the question
again before the Senate and to be tried
again with new ''interpretative" reserva-
tons. II, again, the ratification should
be defeated. they could reconsider again,
frame third set OF reservations and try
II again and again.
Should the Vice President rule with
the Administration party It might be
held that, after n resolution OF ratifica-
ton has been perfected and then re-
jected for want of the two-third vote,
that the treaty was still before the Sem
ate. Two difficulties confront the Demo-
Gratis here. Such ruling would involve
revolution Ia parliamentary procedure.
II could be overturned by a majority
vote Of the Senate from the decision OF
the chair on appeal.
The opposition to the treaty insists that
the plan win not work. They say that
once the resolution of ratification Is
killed by the aid OF Democratic votes II
win stay dead; the word will 20 out to
the country that the Democrats have
killed their own treaty and the RESPONSE
bility will be on them: the opponents OF
the treaty will not thereafter help them
breathe the breath OF life back into 1t b.
any process Of parliamentary legerde-
main.
Democratic leaders. facing this situa-
ton, are in painful predicament- They
do not know what to do for want Of In
structions from the White House. They
have not been instructed whether to
frame a compromise set of reservations
and try to secure agreement on them. OF

INVITING COMPETITION

There are some to the westward who are now agitating the notion that the government put one or more boast on the run between Seattle and Alaska ports. as far as Anchorage. as least While the notion or roposition-whatever one cares to call it. is still in its infancy. we are all aware that all things have beginning and like wise an end. In this case the suggestion may grow resulting in competition when c0mpetiti- on is not wanted.
 The proposition to have government boats running here taking traffic away from private concerns is not really the aim. The aim is mere ly to fill wide gap between efficient and poor service. And should the proposition be sue cessful the present transportation concerns would have but themselves to blame; for they seem to invite competition As a matter of ap- pearance they seem TO urge upon themselves the very thing that would reduce their traffic to practically nothing.
 Let us take look: In the first place. they have no schedules; never had and not likely to have n the future that the people can rely upon In the second place, the accommodation they were given, so long as they got there but is. comparatively speaking. poor IT. the third place. they have no mortgage on Alaska traffic No rot even a lien Of late they have pur- chased several ships. These are called ships because they are kept in the water; but put them on land and you shall have but flower boxes.

LET US HELP OURSELVES

The Alaska Bureau of the Seattle Chamber of Commerce has just launched a campaign having for it's object to aid navigation in Alas la. If there is one thing that we need above another in Alaska to safeguard the lives of our citizens, aids to navigation is that very thing. Unfortunately, we are as whole, too busy to take up such matter with the department We seem to prefer to take chances rather than beg. Besides, the need is so glaring that wethink we are entitled to help and should have it with out asking for it. Seattle, however, being as nearly interested as we are ourselves, and have more time, is devoting a great deal of energy to help Us for which we are all so grateful
 Of course, everybody knows that whatever benefits Alaska benefits Seattle. Yet candidly without the enterprising spirit of the citizens of that city, only very few would know that ther is such country as Alaska Territory. Yes indeed. Alaskans owe great deal to Seattle, and particularly to J. L. McPherson, Manager of the Alaska Bureau who has our welfare at heart almost exclusively. Our Commercial Club might help the campaign along by more resolutions and incidentally help ourselves.

practice when things are so unequalled, one can hardly make it and the companies should much less expect it.
 So far as we are concerned, we do not favor a government line of steamers; but we would fa- vor local enterprise along that line of endea- vor and we can see no reason why it should not be undertaken. All there is to do is to get all the local business men to wake up, and the thing is as good as done. Ketchikan and immediate vicinity alone could give one or two good size and speedy steamers all they could do. Some day, the business men of "Our Town will wake up maybe. and today's suggestion shall be a reality.
