 The vote by the national House the other day on the Alaska appropriation interesting to the West showing the enlightened opinion pressed in debate compared with the muddle of transformation that friends of the Territory have in the past had contend with in Washington.
 It is not that there opposition to the ap propriation for completion of the road. There was opposition in plenty, but those who objected to voting the needed found other than that the line would be patronized exclusively by Els kimo fur traders and gumdrop vendors
 It has been long, hard campaign to educate the East, and especially official Washington the fact that Alaska is land of barren wastes and try unfit for human habitation. But in the House debate there notable absence of this sort propaganda. .4's
 It is important to Seattle to note. however, that there is still plenty of missionary work to be done for the idea persists in reading the speeches delivered Ton the subject that among those who favored the bill there still some who have a proper appreciation of the Territory The strongest ar guments of those favorng the appropriation had ito make that since something than $50 1000 900 has been spent the project the only hope lof saving the money is to add enough to com ipete the road
 AS matter of fact official Washington is going lto wake up day to the tremendous possibilities 'cf Alaska. But until this happy day We will have to extract whatever satisfaction out of the evidence presented blythe House debate that at least, have progressed in educational cam paign beyond the point where ordinarily sensible men persist in declaring that the only business the road Twill get is the transportation of ice.
 The job isn't finished yet. but there is hope that some day make the East understand that Alaska is land fuil of promise any section of the country

The increasing abundance of idle funds the large gold importations and the reduction of re discount rates by the Federal Reserve Banks and con seQuent reduction of interest rates by banks on the best securities is said to be responsible for the con tinued advance in the price of Government bonds.

PROBABLY THEY KNOW MIR. BALLAINE

MT Balaine would Senators believe that the circumstance that the Seattle Chamber of Commerce refused to give him opportunity to make speech before it is evidence that the Morgan Guggenheim syndicate owned controlled the Board of Trustees of that organization. The Empire holds brief for the Seattle Chamber of Commerce, but it does not necessarily follow that Mr. Balaines contention is sound Senators should forget that people of Seattle have known MT.

BUILD THE EAGLE RIVER ROAD.

The suggestion of Mayor Robertson that the Ju- neau Commercial Association should petition the For estry Bureau utilize enough of the funds that will come into the hands of the Bureau for road building under the terms of the law recently passed by Con gress to extend and complete the Eagle River road should be carried That road should be con sructed the earliest possible date. It is estimated that such a road would make available room for 100 farms, and it is asserted by those who should know that Juneau could every pound of farm products that number of farms could raise That would make the farms very desirable to homesteaders. The addition of % farmers to the population of South eastern Alaska would the addition of not less than 1000 and possibly twice that number to the population within a very few years.
 Further than that the Eagle River and Yankee Basin districts offer special inducements to pros pectors. That there is gold in that section has been proved and roads would stimulate the prospecting of the country and development work where gold has been discovered.
 In addition to this such road would add i'm measureably to the pleasure of living in Juneau and to the attractions of this section tourists and sportsmen.
 There is probably section of Alaska where greater results would surely follow construction than would with the completion of the Eagle River Road It ought to be built.

 There is no doubt but that the English speaking paoples,-the United States Great Britain and the British Domnons-f they work together for the good of the world and long they do that, can dom mate international matters If they work in that manner the thirty-year limitation need not be added If they do not work in that manner the ttirtyyear period is probably long No people or combination of peoples can any longer dominate the world any considerable length of time with selfish ness and force the mainsprings of action But the English speaking peoples could not long work in harmony any other basis than one of unselfshness
