Many prominent Alaskans are talk ing issue with Delegate Sutherland over his carrying the fish reserve controversy into court, believing that Alaska will lose the friendship and aid of Secretary Hoover. While the Gateway has received no other ad vices than those contained in the dis patches, it appears to us from this long distance view that the question is assuming too much magnitude for so small a matter Alaskans must go to the States for its financial back ing for mines and fisheries. If capital refuse to step in and develop either one CT the other, they would remain undeyeloped, as few Alaskans could float these enterprises. On the other hand Alaskans get little from their vast sources. Their laws are vio' lated with impunity, and outside in terests advance the theory that these resources are not owned by Alaskans but by the people of the United States at large which may be true legally but not true morally.
 Whether or not a lawsuit with the head of the fisheries department will advance our interests at Washington or injure them, remains to be seen.

THE EMPIRE IS MISTAKEN

The Fairbanks News Miner, the Seward Gateway, the Nome Nugget and other papers have devoted a great deal of space for long time to the abuse of South Alaska. They have said time after time that their re spective parts of Alaska have nothing in common with us. They have puffed up and tried to convince themselves that we are not part ot Alaska. But now, when we accept them at thelr word, and ask for separation, they op- pose-at least some of them do. They want to keep us and tax us for their own benefit That is not the Alaska spirit as we knew it in Old Alaska Juneau Empire.
 The Empire is mistaken as to the position of The Gateway upon division of the Territory. The Gateway favors and has always been in favor of di vision of the Territory, believing that as it now exists it is too large and believes that if the Territory is di- vided, taking in Cordova and Valdez the rest of the Territory would be bet ter off.
 The railway section of Alaska has no interests in common with the part south of it, and constant friction is engendered thereby. The season in southeastern Alaska is months earlier than that Of our section, and the fur fish and game laws controlling the southern part are not applicable to our section. While the game and fur laws are adjusted to suit different sections, in way, they are not right at the present time
 Southeastern Alaskan wants to dc business with Canadian towns and with Canadian vessels while south western Alaska pays a large freight and passenger haul through the Cana dians getting the cream of the busi ness.
 In case the Territory is divided ! would not take away from the popula ton of the first division while addins several thousand in population to this section. The roster of officials pub lished in the Governors report is as tonishing when one considers the number of officials and boards.
 In fact, the Gateway would like to see the Territory divided in four ter ritories comprising the separate divi visions. In case separation is accord ed the First division, we know that the Third will be in line for it.
 Where the Gateway has differed with the Empire is in it's wild and un reliable statistics published in advo eating division The Empire should know, being at capital headquarters that the Third pays in more receipts 10 the territorial government, and that the First division has nothing like 90 per cent of tbe population ot the Territory, nor even 50 per cent.
 The facts are good enough, and form a concrete argument for divi sion. Why pad them.

CINCINNATI, February 16.--An in
junction suit to ascertain whether
labor unions can bind members by
contracts not to accept employment
in non-union shops has been filed In
superior court here by the Inter
national Stereotypers and Electro
typers Union against Clifford Meyer,
former member of the union.
" c are seeking to learn if the de-
Clsion announced by Chief Justice
Taft in the Coronado case can be in
voked by labor as we'll as by en-
ployer," William Thorndyke, at
torney, representing the union, said.
The suit alleges that on July IS,
1921. Meyer. then a member of the
electrotypers' union, signed an agree
ment not to accept non-union en-
ployment and that In violation of that
contract he went to work for Il non
union printing concern on January
%, 1928. The suit asks the court to
enjoin Meyer from continuing work
in the non-union shop.
Attorney Thorndyke declared that
the suit involves also construction
of the Hitchman Coal Company case
also decided by the Supreme Court
and enjoining unions from intcrfer-
ing with non~union employees who
had signed contracts with their en-
ployers not to join the union.
Attorney Thorndyke predicted that
the case probably would go to the
Supreme Court of the United States.

Sunday afternoon. Mr.. Otness, with
Deputy Sheriff Grant Robbins, was
witnessing ball game at the Pot
latch park, when Mr.. Otness thought
he heard cries of distress. He left
the game and followed in the direc-
ton of the sound, finding three little
chaps, ranging from six to eight years
of age, in the pond and unable to
get out After considerable difficulty
Mr.. Otness succeeded in landing the
boys on the shore.
The boys had been struggling and
crying for help, but the noise at the
ball game had drowned their cries,
and it was just due to good fortune
that the sound was carried to Mr..
OtneSS' ears.

PRESENTED TWICE
COMMITTEE MAY BE FORCED TO
PRODUCE EVENT TWO NIGHTS
FOR CROWDS

| "The Light on the Mountains, the
huge historical pageant which will be
given at he University of Idaho the
night of June 8, may be given two
days With information pouring in
that crowd is expected to come from
all over the state to witness the
spectacle, plans are being consider
ed for putting on the production twice
in order to accommodate the flood of
spectators which is expected.
Information is being sent out over
the state that the pageant committee
is making arrangements to provide
Accommodations for auto campers who
wish to motor in for the night or
nights of the production. Plans are
being made to use the gymnasium
for the convenience of those coming
in by auto, and to serve them with
hot coffee when they arrive.
Plan Visitor Accommodation
Advertisements for the pageant are
now being placed on every outgoing
letter from Moscow business houses,
for the students of the university to
place on all their personal letters,
giving a general invitation to the
public to attend.
With the information concerning
the pageant going out over the state
every day in all the letters sent out
by the student body, the general
committee is finding out the approx
innate number of visitors that it will
be necessary to accommodate in case
it is given two nights as well as in
the event that it is thought best to
limit the production to one night.
The members of the various groups
on the campus are extending the
invitations to their relatives and to all
their friends throughout the north
west.
Cast Selection Progresses.
The selection of the actual cast
has not been finished, but it is pro-
crossing rapidly and the announce
ment of definite assignments will be
made very soon Tryouts have been
given for the past two weeks on the
campus under the willows in order
to fit the parts accurately.
The pageant is featured especially
by a wealth of brilliancy and unique
ness Of costuming, and is rich in vi
vid and exciting scenes. The pictur-
esque scenes Of indian raids and
stagecoach driving are especially
gripping.
A complete cast will probably be
picked by the end of the week.

MARSHAL POE SAYS CONDI-
TIONS PROSPEROUS AT DEARY

Roy Poe, town marshal and agent
for the Washington, Idaho & Mon
tana Railway company, at Deary, is
in Moscow attending the sessions of
the federal court, as witness in a
number Of liquor cases where he was
the arresting officer.
Mr.. Poe states that business is book
ing in the up-river district. The
Potlatch Lumber camps are all in
operation and every man who Will
work has job at good wages. The
area of farm land is increasing each
year, as the timber is logged off
and this is bringing in more settlers
and adding to the general prosperity.
Especially is this true around Deary,
where much of the timber has been
logged off for a number of years,
leaving open for agriculture an
especially fertile body of land, thou
sands of acres of which has already
been cleared of stumps and is pro-
ducing good crops.
In the town of Deary there is not
a vacant house, and number more
houses could be filled.
