'COMPA ARSON OF
 COURT RECORDS
 SUPPORTS CLAIM
More Cases Started in First Division Than in All
 Others Combined.

Some interesting comparisons were made today by U. s. Attorney J. A. Smiser who in commenting upon the statement made recently to The En- pire by H. c. Strong of Ketchikan, relative to congestion of Court busl- ness in ths Division, declared that official records for the fiscal year of 1919-20. ending June 30, last, dis closes that more than twice as many criminal actions were started in the First Division in the District Court than in all the other three Divisions off Alaska combined.
 This is merely the actions started in the District Court" said MT. Smi- ser, "and in addition there were many actions in the U. s. Com missioner's Courts at Ketchikan and Juneau at which the District Attor- while we have not exact record Of such cases, it is very probable tha, they exceed those instituted in the upper Court. The number of cases tried by Jury in the District Court in this Division" he said, "were ex- actly twice as many as the number of jury trials in the District Courts in the other three Divisions" The civil actions instituted in this Div ision numbered I'll as compared to 216 in the other three Divisions con- bined according to MT Smiser.
 Regarding the court work for Ket- chikan alone, Mir. Smiser said that the number of legal actions started in the District Court there during the same period was but one less than the numbered started by all the other Divisions combined. There, he said, do not include the cases in the U. s. Commissioner Court at Ket- chikan. Trials by Jury at Kctvhi- kan. it wa sstated, numbered pra- ctically as many as all the other three Divisions combined

FAMILIES ARE COMING NORTH
 FOR LOCATION
Seward Doctor Brings Good News from States--Travel
 North Is to Be Heavy.

Every Alaskan who is now out side in Washington, Oregon and Cal ifornia. and who has not located. is coming back to the North this year." said Dr. J. H. Romig, an Al askan Engineering Commission physi- clan who passed through Juneau Juneau today on the Alameda for his headquarters at Seward.
 "I have been in the three Pacific Coast states for the past six weeks and in my visits in Seattle. Tacoma Portland and San Francisco, l was besieged by former Afaskans who wanted to know about Alaska com ing back this year." said Dr. Romig. q presented what I believed was facts showing that this was gong to be the great year in the North, and they immediately got the fever and are coming back as soon as they can arrange their affairs. Those who went out early in the winter are going to return sooner than they expected for conditions are not of the best and as they are tired of the commercial turmoils, want to get out of it and back to their positions or to their business pursuits.
 "The Alaskans who have located on farm lands in the States are making good. Those who have enter ed various commercial businesses are experiencing the same troubles of readjustment as others. The Al askan, however, is plucky and takes his reverses with sangfroid and comes out on top if there is a way.
 "The tourist travel to the North is going to be heavy this coming year, and we are going to have more of this travel to the Westward than in former years. The Government Railroad has been so thoroughly ex- plotted and the country through which it passes and is to pass has received such good advertising that sightseers as well as those who will invest, are coming to our section O. the country this year.
 Tn nearly every city I visited. was asked not only about the mining and agricultural possibilities but a bout oil and pulp and paper mak- ing. Both of the latter industries are receiving a great amount of attention and the first news of an oil strike in any section to the Westward is going to be the signal for a stampede of new class of people. tr
 If men with families know that they can secure regular and peTma nent employment in the North. they will come to Alaska and locate. Of this latter 1 am sure, for l talked with many who want to come into a new country and make their homes. told men of families of the excel lent schools in the North and the of securing colleges. told the men of families also about the good opportunities for boys and girls over 16 years of age securing work during the summer. It is the family man We want now in the North and if the employment is her. the family man will come and re- main"

ELECTRICITY TO SOLVE !
NUMEROUS DIFFICULTIES
Wizard of Electricity Declares
Transportation May Depend
. Upon Cheaper Way
(By United Press)

Schenectady, N. Y, Feb. iva
ter and highway transportation las
we'll as railways, eventually may de-
pend upon electricity for motive pow
er because of its greater economy
and efficiency, according to DR..
Charles P. Steinmetz, the Wizard of
Electricity"
The famous inventor called atten-
ton, In an interview with the United
Press, to the success OF the electric
drive on American warShips and, the
fact that this method of propulsion
is being extended to merchant craft.
As regards automobiles, he said:
when the gasoline engine was
first used for automobiles people pro-
tested they would never come into
general use because the fuel was not
readily obtainable. This difficulty
was overcome by the simple process
of producing more gasoline and es-
tablishing supplies in every part of
the country. The use Of electric
automobiles for touring will grow
just in the ratio that facilities for re
charging storage batteries are ex-
tended"
The use Of electric engines for air.
planes will never become feasible, be-
cause of the prohibitive weight Of
the batteries, considering their power
as compared with the power Of gas
oline engines Of corresponding
weight, he said.
DR.. Steinmetz declared that water
power could never completely re-
place coal and petroleum products
for generating electricity, saying
that IF every drop Of rain which
falls in the United States could be
transmitted directly into power it
could not replace our present coal
consumption. He similarly charac-'
terized the use OF the suns rays,
tides and the wind for solution Of
our power problems under present
conditions as dreams" contending
that the expense OF Harvesting these
elements would far outweigh the
value of the power derived.
Communication with other plan
cts by radio was said by DR.. Stein
metz to be possible but not prob
able" He said~a plant Of only 1O0,-
900 horsepower might be sufficient
to send an electric wave to Mars,
hut that the actual communication
would depend not only upon the
,Martians. having instruments to ~ro-

INDEPENDENTS KEEP UP
FIGHT AGAINST LEAGUE
Efforts to Obtain Non.Political
Adjustment of Finances Have
., Failed Completely
(By United Press)

Bismarck, N. D., Feb. 17.--lt lOOk+
ed like finish fight between the
Nonpartfsan league and independ-
ents in North Dakota today with the
public as referees.
The efforts to obtain a non -politi-
cal adjustment of the serious finan-
cial difficulties Of the state owned
bank have failed completely.
The whole political structure was
shaken by threats and counter
threats. Independents demanded
drastic restriction Of the industrial
program inaugurated by the nonpar-
tisan league two years ago. Non
partisans asserted they would fight
to finish. ..-,-
The independents are ready to in
troduce bills into the state legisla-
ture this afternoon calling for aban-
donment of most of the league pro-
gram. Whether such measure can be
passed is problem. The conversion
Of the state bank into a rural credit
institution and the liquidation of its
obligations at once was the principal
demand of the league opponents.
They are also prepared to fight
for the abandonment of the home
building association and mills and
elevators program. After completing
the present building contracts and
the mills and elevators at Grand
Forks and Drake, these two branches
Of the government will become in
operative. Another measure sought
would prohibit the deposits of public
funds in other than approved state
land national banks.
The present fight actually begins
with the institution Of the so-called
Townley program more than two
years ago. The independents were
completely outnumbered in the leg
islature at that time. The various
factions opposing the nonpartisan
league were divided. Last November
all factions opposing the league COM
bined as independents. They won
several victories but In the main the
state government remained under
