LET HARMONY AND UNITY BE
 THE WATCHWORDS

This is no time for tolerance, in Republican affairs, of the politician who insists upon having his own way or starting a rough house. There has been entirely too much government by fear both in national and party affairs during the past two years
 The Republican party, nationally, is now in position where it should, through it's chosen representatives, do that which is believed to be permar1- ently best for the party and country, without immediate consideration of mere expediency. The Republican partysis far bigger than any man or set4eof men in it; most of all it is far bigger than the Wilsonian delu- sion that the tail can wag the ele- phant. The convention proceedings at Chicago should be characterized by unity, harmony, good feeling, as is appropriate to an assemblage of men who are moved by common patriotic purpose It is no time for calling names, impugning motives, attacking character or resorting to any of the other old time honored methods of per sonal politics,-and it is time when such performances as this directed toward the disruption of Republican ism and the consequent sacrifice of the national interests, can only be in furious to those who indulge in theml

OREGON DEMOCRATS HAVE ANS
 WIRED MIR, WILSON

President Wilson wrote a letter to the Oregon Democrats appealing to them to stand by the record of the national administration in the primar- ies about to be held, and giving forth much elouuence about the necessity of preserving the national honor by rebuking the dastards who voted for the reservations which sought to Americanize the league of nations covenant he brought home from Paris.
 Whereupon the Democrats of Ore gon, in stubborn defiance of the will full One, and in the face of his asser- tionafhat such a course was one of perfidv>at1d sdishonor, proceeded to swat the administration candidate for the Democratic senatorial nomination, Band to renominate Senator George D.. Chamberlain, who voted for the Lodge reservations, has criticized the gross inefficiency of the administration, and has otherwise made himself persona non grata to presidential incumbent who makes personal fealty to himself test of party and national loyalty.
 President Wilson, with his ukases which get nowhere and his orders mo- body obeys, is getting himself in much the same position as King Canute, who commanded the ocean to back up and got "sore" when the tide pro- ceeded to function as usual.
 There are still those mindless think CTS who proceed on the theory that everything MT. Wilson says is Holy Writ, but there is a growing number teven of Democrats inclined to believe this ought to read, "Wholly Rot"
 The Oregon Democrats have told MT. Wilson very plainly that he Is wrong in the theory that he is the only man in this country who is en- titled to think or act on behalf of the American people. No question of national honor' is involved in the matter of standing by every agree ment MT. Wilson made at Paris. The American people tolG him in Novem- Der, 1918, that he lacked a good deal of being the whole American govern ment, and 39 members of the United States senate warned him, on March 4th, 1919, that they did not propose to stand for the thing he was cook ing up at Paris. That he proceeded in violation of these definite instruc- tions is no fault of the American peO- pie, and the diplomats who accepted his at his own valuation at Paris are simply in the position of the Copen- hagen University professors who feted Dr. Cook as the discOverer of the North Pole Both these perform ances humiliated the American peo- pie, but they did not bind either the American people or the American gov ernment in any way.

D TERMINATION FOR
 ALASKA

We hear much about self-determin- ation for Egypt, Ireland, Armenia, Syria and other countries, but why not. self-determination . for Alaska? While the death battalion has been Illuminating about the wrongs of those distant peoples, it has had noth- ing to say of the wrongs suffered by Americans in the far north, though they, as the last of the pioneers, should have a superfor claim.
 When the gold discoveries of the KIondyke, Fairbanks and Nome and the copper discoveries of Copper river drew tens of thousands of men to Alaska, it was hoped that mining would be the precursor of develop ment of all the other wealth of the far north The miner has ever been the fOrerunner of the farmer the cat tleman, the frlitgrOWer, the lumber man and the manufacturer, bringing in their train the full organization of civil life. So it was with California, Oregon, Idaho, Montana and Colorado, and so it would have been in Alaska if the government had done for it what was done for the states mention ed here.
 But soon after Nome was discover ed the conservationists appeared on the scene, and they got a grip on Alaska which has not yet been broken. The government sent no officials to that territory with authority to de- eide anything that settlers should not be permitted to use the land. Any body who wanted to tie up anything found a ready ear in Washington. The big game hunters won the protection for the great brown bear of the Alaska peninsula in order that they might have the fun of chasing and killing him. But if any body of men wanted to develop a coal mine or an oil we'll or to cut timber or to inn prove a harbor by building a wharf, the cry of "cOrporation" or "1andgrab- ber' was raised, and they were then bounded by investigators and inspect Ors. Authority over Alaskan affairs was so finely divided among many bureaus at Washington that nothing could be done without referring to one of them and some other usually found encroachment on it's authority while the conservationists warned them all to beware of the corporation % bugaboo. So much time was thus spent in discussion and referring things to and fro that the man who wanted to do something tired sf wait ing and left Alaska to it's solitude. Thus the northern territory is being strangled by a bureaucracy more cruel than that of the czars at their worst.
 Not only Alaska, but the whole Pacific coast, in fact the whole West is interested in this maater. If the coal and oil of that territory were de- veloped, they would be added to the fuel supply and would lower the price both for the cities and ships. Great herds of caribou and reindeer could be raised to increase the meat supply. The coast needs the help of Alaska as much as Alaska needs help. By the consideration which they have secur- ed for reclamation, Western congress- men have proved that, when they unite, they have power. They should use that power on behalf of Alaska, that it may be emanicipated from bureaucracy, and be given real self government with freedom to develop. Portland Oregonian.
