Says Willis ]. Abbott:

The great need of the world today is that there
should be unity of thought and endeavor among
nations strong enough to impress their convic-
lions upon the whole world, and this need can only
be met if those convictions shall be of nature
to bring good to mankind a whole and not to
advance selfish national interests.

ALASKA's OPPORTUNITY

The suggestion that the Alaska Legislature pass bill governing the salmon industry is one of the best solutions that has been offered to the vexatious question. Incidentally it inaugurates step in the direction of home rule It is now up to the Legislature to demonstrate its ability to solve domestic ques- tions without the aid of Washington. All that is necessary is the passage of fair and equitable measure guaranteeing safeguards for invested capital, protecting the rights of Alas kans and adopting some means of saving the salmon from depletion.
 The major question confronting the Legis- lators is not the number of canneries permis- sibe, but the matter of prevention of destruc- ton of fish. Coupled with this is some system Whereby those entrusted with the duties of enforcing the law will be emancipated from all courtesies and favors of those engaged in the canning industry. If reports are correct, this is one of the most fragrant evils in con- necton with the fisheries question. So long as inspectors are compelled to accept cour tesies in the way of transportation, etc., just so long will the human impulse over-shadow the strict letter of the law. The inspectors should be provided with transportation by the way of United States craft. There are hun dreds of such boats lying off southern Winter resorts and lowering near the fashionable cen ters that would be better engaged patrolEng the waters of Alaska
 Dereliction in law enforcement does not imply corruption, it is the natural result of this very failure in giving officers indepen- dence.
 Large traps appear to be another evil that must he dispensed with, but until some system of providing fish for the pack is worked out interference with the traps can only extend to t]e number of fish packed This may eventually be overcome by substituting for the trap a netting system, the price of the fish being agreed upon for period of years, to fluctuate with the price of canned salmon in the same manner that the miners have adopted

MOTHER TONGUE FOR YOUNG

The Supreme Court of Nebraska has up- held law of English in schools below the Ninth Grade. That is we'll The law is not only sound in law but sound in reason. This is an English-speaking nation. Moreover, English is rapidly becoming the language of the world so far as commerce and interna- tional communication are concerned The time is not far distant when all nations will make English a part of the course of instruction for their young people in order better to fit them for their life occupations.
 It is entirely proper for the young people of America to study foreign languages but most of them have all they can do to get fairly good command of the English language dur ing the eight years they spend in the elementary schools In fact both the spoken and written language of many of our high school students indicate that some of them did not achieve very notable success in their study of English in the elementary schools. Those who wish to study foreion languages after they have mastered English, may well be encouraged to do so, but their first attention should be given to that Ian ouaee in which we have written our history, in which we transact our official business and in which we conduct our ordinary conversation and communication.
 The man who insists upon teaching his children some language other than English during the common school period is open to serious doubt on the score of his Americanism

THE SONG OF THE sPINDLEs

Frobably no American industry has been moro greatly benefited by the restoration of the protective tariff policy than the textile industry. Summarizing recent reports if is apparent that the volume of business done m Woolens and worsteds for Fall trade has been large. It is certain that some agents have been called on for goods which will oversell their mills. In cotton goods the we'll sold position of the mills makes it difficult to get additional accommodation where nearby goods are wanted. Production in silk centers shows signs of constant expansion, so great in some instances that the labor shortage is seriously interfering with the necessities of the business. Some of the artificial silk pro- ducers have been overwhelmed with offers of business they cannot accept and make prop CT deliveries. The knit goods industry is toying great trade revival In the Passaic N J., handkerchief mills great activity is re- ported, with an increasing demand for linens
 In the womens wear market one operator said the buying for Fall reminds him of ''the good old war days" He was asked whether. he also had in mind the terrible days of 1920 He looked grave for a moment. but the smile of optimism came quickly. The dress strike has been settled and the men are returning to the shops, which are ready for boom sales
 The textile prosperity will not supply the Dem ocratic party with any campaign ammunition in 1924 Textiles are our trite tariff testimon- ials. The activity of the mills means steady work for the employees, regular full pay on Saturday night and correspondingly good demand for the commodities these mill work CTS must consume. The active textile mill means better market for farm produce, for lumber, for fish, for luxuries of all kinds

A REALLY MOMENTOUS VISIT

Residents of Alaska have long since ceased to be thrilled over the visits of Federal offl- cials Tours of investigation on the part of heads and sub-heads of the multiform Govern mental bureaus administering our destlnes have become "the mostest things that we have of Coming to the North on Government eypense. funds for which might far more sen sibv be turned over to the benefit of the Territory, these official iaunts have served little purpose but the pleasure of those that have taken them, in many cases the only excuse for their being taken. In the contem- plated tour of Secretary Weeks and his party, members of the Appropriations Subcommlttees on Military Affairs of the House and Senate, however. there is general interest throughout Alaska. The Secretary and the lawmakers composing his party have jurisdiction over the matters that demand the largest share of the Congressional funds allotted to Alaska. Under their supervision are issued all appro- nriations for the building of roads and tralls. Transportation being the first and most in sistent problem in the Territory, 1t IS of great moment that these visitors become familiar with the conditions and needs in this direct1on Upon the impression they receive will depend in large measure the extent of the road-bulld- ing operations in the Territory during the next two vears-and thereafter. Their visit therefore, exceeds in importance even that ot the President, as measured by material re- turns, and it is in many respects the most promising of all the official inspections that have ever been made of this little understood Northland.

THE PIONEERS PENSION

A proposition is before the Territorial Leg islature advocating paying any pioneer who is in needy circumstances a pension of $25 per month with maximum of $50 per month for cases where persons are utterly destitute. This will be allowed to women as well as to men. While many pioneers are in favor of the bill, some few cases are found where pioneers fear that the burden will be too heavy for the Ter ritory to bear That this issue is far-fetched is shown by consulting the records of the Pio- neers Home It will be seen that at no time has the Home been able to provide for these pioneers for the sum proposed in the pension and that instead of adding a burden to the Territory it will in fact relieve it, as many of those members now at the Sitka institution would have remained at home had they been allowed to. Those pioneers who are not in flavor of the pension should not stand in the way of opposing relief to indigent brothers, as they are not compelled to accept the pen sion, and those wanting and needing it would have every excuse for taking it.
 The vast body of pioneers now in the Ter ritory will never become in cramped circum- stances at the same time, as the records show that the membership at the home has seldom reached one hundred after all these years.
 The money can be easily raised and should be used to relieve suffering among the old trail blazers. They are entitled to 1t, If they want it, and if they do not want it they should not deprive those who do from getting it. Steward Gateway.

ALASKA'S WINTER SEASON

In their zeal to dissipate erroneous impress sons in the public mind as to the all l-the-year
 round Winter climate of Alaska, Alaskans have gone bit too far in overlooking the great advantages that are afforded by the Territorys Winter season. This is pointed out by Major Gotwals, of the Alaska Road Commission, in describing the extent of the work being done in the Interior in the matter of Winter freighting. Because of the long period of clear weather, uniform temperature, and light snowfall north of the Coast Range, the Winter season affords ideal conditions for freghting at low cost. In the use of cater pillar tractors over wel-laid sled trails the cost of freight transportation is about fifty cents per ton-mle. What this fact means to the mining districts of the Interior can be realized when it is remembered that by the old dog-team method freight into such dis tricts as the Kuskokwim and the Iditarod has cost from twenty-five cents to dollar and more a pound. That made roads are not necessary, freighting being carried on over ordinary sledtrails and along the courses of rivers and creeks is one of the invaluable features of the Winter season in the Interior. Thus taken advantage of it becomes a god send to country whose surface conditions make Summer transportation impossible ex- cept over we'll l-constructed roads, With the completion of wagon-road feeders to the two railway lines now cutting the Territory north

PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY

As the sick man, discouraged. becomes the easy prey of the quack, so the citizen, dis contented becomes the ready mark of the demagogue, Speaker Frederick H. Gillett of the House, recently told the citizens of the nation in message given to the Rotary Clubs of the country "Dont let your discomfort lead you blindy to follow the first man who promises a panacea,' said the Speaker. ''The ouack and the demagogue alike always follow one method. They paint sympathetically your sufferings. which are real, in order to win your confidence in their remedy, which is generally chimerical. Speaker Gillett's mes sage was on the subject of the individual cit
 zen $ responsibility for legislation He said, further:
 "The individual citizens responsibility for Legislation is mainly indirect. We are not a Democracy; we are a Republic. We elect Representatives to legislate for us. And the first duty and responsibility of the citizen towards legislation is to select well his Repre- sentative The other chief responsibility of the citizen is to keep informed on questions
