THESE BILLS SHOULD PASS

The tariff bills introduced in Con- gress by Senator McNary and Repre- sentative Kahn, proposing protection for the chrome, graphite and other mining industries in the United States should pass Ores containing these and other minerals were opened up in Alaska, and elsewhere, in direct response to the needs developed by the war While the mine, in all prob ability, whould have been put on a basis where no protection would have been needed, had the war continued, the sudden termination of the conflict left things so that development work that was undertaken will prove a very severe burden on those who patrioti- eally responded to the call for help If protection that would permit of their continued operation is not given.
 The Empire is printing a discussion of these measures which appeared in l derwood, formerly of Alaska, writes. lr. Underwood, however, inconsist- ently intimates that should the meas ures pass the houses of Congress they might meet with Presidential veto, for, he says, "the Democratic party is pledged to free trade" The only thing that is wrong about that is that it is not true. The Democratic party is not "pledged to free trade" and never has been. The present very satisfac- tory tariff measure, the Underwood Tariff, was passed by a Democratic Senate and Democratic House of Rep resentatives and approved by a Dem- ecratic President as a fulfillment of the Democratic promise to reform the tariff, and it is not and never was Intended to be free trade measure. President Wilson and his party do not oppose protection for Infant indus tries" They oppose treating the great est and wealthiest manufacturing con- eerns of the world as infants. and the manufacturers of the country have generally accepted their verdict.
 President Wilson has urged Con. gross to provide tariff for some in. dustries, particularly those that have grown up around the production of dyes, which resulted from war condi- tions. The proposed tariff to protect some of these mining industries which were developed by the war is directly 1n line with. the proposed protection . for the dyestuffs industries. Tn fact chrome and the other metals discussed by Mr. Underwood are used in the production of dyestuffs, and we can. not have an independent American dyestuffs industry unless we have American chrome and other metals used in their production.-Juneau Empire

 Many Valdez citizens are urging At torney A. J. Dimond to allow his name to go before the Democratic primaries as candidate for territorial represen- tative. MT. Dimond has been a citizen of Alaska for many years. He has never asked for any office at the hands of the people. He has served the city several terms as councilman and mayor, and has made one of the best officials the city has ever had. If Valdez can induce him to represent the

wish the reformers well in that en- deavor.
 The reformers intend, it is report ed, to "try out" some of the schemes on the District of Columbia to make the national capital. as it were, the "goat" for the experiment. Washing ton is already as moral city as any in America. There is no gambling, no red light" district, no saloons, no poolrooms, no money sharking and even the pawnshops can make no money as they are limited by law to per cent per month interest. But amusements and picture houses run wide open on Sundays, and the pie ture houses are to be attacked by the reformers first, it is said.

SWIMMING POOLS ARE
 PUBLIC NECESSITY

PARIS, Dec. 30 (by Associated Press) The Paris municipal council has decided that public swimming baths are not only a necessity but that they are likely to prove a pay ing venture and has asked the city architects to prepare plans for three baths to be erected in Paris within IS months. The only swimming baths in Paris except for those moored along the Seine banks which, altogether popular in the summer months, prove no attraction in winter.
 The probable cost of each establish ment is estimated at 3OOO,O00 francs Delegates from the municipal council have been sent to Alsace to inspect the baths there. The Paris baths are to be modelled after those of Strasbourg.
