CHEAPER PRESS TOLLS

While press tolls over the cable from Seat tie to Alaskan ports are fairly reasonable, an effort should be made by the publishers of Alaska to secure a much cheaper rate if the papers of the Territory are to be of value in developing the country. The papers of Alaska are far better as rule than those of the Sta tes, in towns of anything like equal population, and the people of Alaska are better patrons of the press than are outside residents. There is no town in Alaska of over 300 population which is not supplied with daily, equipped with modern machinery and enjoying sub stantial volume of business. Towns of 5000 in the States are rarely able to support a daily paper. Even their weeklies are hardly ever credit to the publisher.
 To secure any press service at all, from Seattle and no daily is complete without such service it costs paper from $75 to $120 per month for 800 words per day. By padding and working the exchanges a paper can get by with this service, but it is not nearly enough. If the papers could get 1900 to 2OOO words daily, they could do more to satisfy their readers.
 It is hoped that the year 1922 will see an organization of publishers of the Third and Fourth divisions. Such organization could work wonders in securing consideration from the government and from ongress-SeWard Gateway.

checked for selling hosiery as pure wool or pure silk, when it really isn't, any other man who purports to sell suit as pure wool, or a shirt as pure silk, when it really isn't falls under the same ban and is subject to prosecuz ton. And a man who undertakes to sell any goods by misrepresenting their contents or character is subject undoubtedly to the oper- ation of the same law, and there is no doubt that hereafter dissatisfied purchasers will take advantage of its provisions. The result will be that hereafter the purchaser of any article will at last have the satisfaction of knowing that he is getting exactly what he paid for. The significance of this ruling can hardly be overestimated and there is no doubt in the world that 1t has carried dismay and conster- nation into thousands of factories which here tofore have been bamboozling the public and taking profits to which they were not entitled. When the supreme court acts as it has acted in the matter, there seems to be small need of appealing to congress for relief which IS al ready afforded under the court s judgment.

A MAN YOU CAN UNDERSTAND

One of the many admirable characterls- ties of Secretary of State Hughes IS that he talks in concrete language rather than ab- stract. Where others are talking of "econom- ic problems'' "menaces to the human race' and the moral duty of the United States to "save mankind" Secretary Hughes is urg- ing upon the world recognition of the con- crete fact that credit follows confidence and that the great need is to "establish the basis of confidence in respect for life, property and cOntract.'
 There is nothing to be gained by talking about saving that portion of the human race which refuses to recognize any rights of oth- CTS There is nothing to be gained by asking credit for a people or a nation who destroy all confidence in themselves by refusing to get back to work and by denying any rights of property or contract.
 Glittering generalties appeal to some peo- pie but they appeal only to those ideallsts who cut very small figure in the real world Of af- fairs. The "voices in the air'' which Presl- dent Wilson so frequently described when he was advocating the league of nations, have very small appeal to practical men and women who are interested in the great task of getting the world back to normal, assuring peace throughout the world and reducing expendl- lures for military establishments What the world needs today is not an incoherence of voices in the air, but some actual and prac- tcal acknowledgment and fulfillment of oblir cations and a return to that hard work III production which is necessary to feed and clothe and house the human inhabitants o1 the earth.
 Secretary Hughes fully appreciates this: hence the practical line of talk he has been giving whenever he has occasion to make public address.

ALASKAN COAL DEVELOPMENT

The Department of the Interior IS perfec- ting plans for the operation of two coal mines in the Chickaloon District of Alaska, winch have been under development by the Navy and which have been turned over to the h. teror Department. It is hoped to lease the mins to some responsible engineering or coal mining company possessing the commercial experience and financial resources necessary to develop and operate the mines with pr'-
 mary object of supplying coal for Naval pur- poses. The detailed plans were discussed With a number of companies, and were definitely considered by four firms. Of these, the Lake and Export Corporation, of Huntington, w. Va., was the only one considering the pros poets sufficiently good to warrant the ex- pense of preliminary field and engineering examination. Accordingly, the Department of the Interior has agreed wi tn the Lake and Elk port Corporation to give that company until July 15 to complete an examination of the mines and possible markets and to make an offer to the Secretary for the leasing and op- eration of the mines and marketing of the coal

AMUSING, NOT INSTRUCTIVE

Lady Astor having been born in the Unit ed States, is all right, notwithstanding She married an English lord and became mem ber of the British Parliament. She will get only kind attention on her visit to her native land Nevertheless, when it comes to politics and policies of government, we choose to take our arvice from other ladies who were able to find suitable husbands in the United States, who like the United States as place m which to live and die, and whose futures and future interests are identical with the interests and future of the United Stats Lady Astor IS amusing but not instructive when she under +akns to lecture the women of Amerlca. 1t IS our guess that the more Lady Astor breaches ;ntprnationalism in America the less popular she will become.
