DEMPSEY AGAIN.

Alaskans as people are not bloodthirsty. They are, as a rule, kind hearted. They unite almost to a man, however, says the Douglas Island News, in deploring the fact that William Dempsey, confessed slayer of Margaret Lavore and Isaac Evans, should have the sentence of death imposed upon him by an Alas kan judge commuted to life impris- onment If ever a man deserved hanging, it is Dempsey, and people in the Territory are beginning to wonder what kind of a killing must be done to call for the death pen atty.

SHOULD WE PAY?

Should the people pay their elect ed servants for the time they take to run around the country cam paigning? The Trades Council of Eureka, California, thinks not.
 It has passed a resolution de- nouncing as dishonest the conduct of officials who take the time which they are supposed to spend in Con- gress doing public business, and spend it making speeches around the country for the advancement of their own political ambitions.
 We admire the Eureka council and are disposed to agree with it, com ments the Seattle Union Record but they seem to us perhaps bit unsophisticated in their assumption that the time the average congress man spends in the halls of Congress is really of any more use to his country than the time he spends otherwise!

MAY HAVE
 LARGE ORE REFINERY

That Ketchikan in the near future may have refinery for handling concentrates from the mining prop critics adjacent is the good news announced by J. E. Chilberg, the Seattle capitalist and head of the Saltchuck mine, who recently wis., ited the properties near Ketchikan with engineers. It is estimated that such a refinery would save thousands of dollars annually for the Saltchuck property and would, at the same time, make it possible for other operators to save an amount annu- ally that would go a long way toward paying their expenses of op- erating.
 l "The Saltchuck mine is looking better than ever," said MT. Chilberg land the only drawback is that the price of palladium and platinum has dropped almost fifty percent. We have Al men working now and we will continue to have about tha' number"
 As to the future, MT. Chilbere

IS ALASKA THE GOAT?

Alaska is experiencing the semi annual investigation to ascertain what ails her, says the Seattle Alas ka Dispatch, referring to the recent appointment of a committee to in ouire into Alaskan conditions and needs. During every administration for sixteen years a commission has journeyed west from Washington, D. C., to investigate Alaska condi- tions. The press tells Alaska that Secretary So-and-So wants first-hand information regarding what Alaska needs. Annually these same secre- taries receive from their accredited agent in Alaska-the Governor-a report asking for legislation and other things needed by the North. Annually these reports are made a part of Secretary So-and-So's an- nual report and then forgotten. Ev- cry two years the Alaska legislature prays for more power, drafts nu- merous petitions asking for federal legislation on certain matters. Again these memorials are referred to con- gressional committees, and semi-an- nually comes the Investigating com mittee to find out what is wrong with Alaska. ... .4
 The only surprising thing about the Payne committee, continues the Seattle publication, is how Alfred Brooks allowed himself to be draft ed into service. Brooks has always been one of the staunch friends of Alaska His work in the North has been of such a high character as to be distinguished. Every Northerner knows and respects Mir. Brooks. Harry Y. Saint is unknown to most Alaskans. It is said he was in Alaska in clerical capacity with some canning concern. No doubt he has qualifications hid under q basket which will make his counsel for the development of Alaska very much cherished. Last, but not least comes our old friend, Otto Praeger The average Alaskan takes an houi off to do some swearing wher Praeger is named. About three year. ago, Praeger decided to send Alasks mails by freight. He cancelled <; number of mail contracts, chased { high dignitary of the Alaska Steam ship company from his presence a Washington, and routed all flask: mails by freight. If any one single act was greater detriment tt Alaska development than this act O MT. Praeger, no Alaskan has ex pressed it. Now comes MT. Praege at the behest of the administration and spends a few days at the Ney Washington hotel to investigat Alaska.

HITCHCOCK DENIES
CONGRESS POWER
TO MAKE PEACE
Declares Contentious in Knox
Resolution Ridiculous and
Inconsistent.

WASHINGTON. May 12.-Demo-
cratic attack upon the Republican
peace resolution was launched to-
day by Senator Hitchcock Of Ne
braska Adm.nist stratlon spokesman.
who declared In addressing the Sem
ute that ,he measure was futile and
inconsistent and in!m!cai to the
Treaty of Versailles.
He denied that Congress has the
power to make peace although Il has
authority to declare war. The States
voted unanimously against giving
Congress peace-making juriadiction,
he said.
Reviewing the course OF other peace
resolutions Mr. Hitchcock said a pre-
vious resolution by Senator Knox was
abandoned on the Senate doorstep
like its predecessors"
But the effort TO do something to
escape from the constitutional method
Of making peace was not abandoned"
he continued. something had 70 be
done"
Senator Hitchcock criticised espe-
cially the proposal in the resolution
that the President be asked to negoti-
ate separate treaty with Germany.
"Only a few months ago" he said,
"the same Senators who now propose
this request were violent in condemn
ing any such suggestion. They hotly
demanded that the President unite
firmly with other nations in making
peace
in another provision Of the resO-
| luton" the Senator Continued, 1T Is
stated that the United states does not
waive any Of It's rights under the
| treaty It has rejected. Could anything
be more ridiculous than to assume
and indicate that we have any rights
| to waive after we have refused to
ratify the treaty which grants them?'
