SEATTLE ALASKA PAPER ON
ALASKA FISHERIES.

In another column is editorial from the
Alaska Weekly, successor of the Alaska Dis
patch formerly published in Juneau but for the
last several years coming out in Seattle, in which
the Seattle publication renews its previously
expressed belief that the Alaska fisheries ought
to be administered by the Territory of Alaska, but
declaring that long they are under the
control of the Federal Bureau of Fisheries a
better head of that organization than Henry
OMalley could not be found
The Empire thoroughly agrees with the Al
aska Weekly. Alaska ought to have the power
to administer its fisheries. No people are
so greatly interested in perpetuating the in
dustry as the people who live in the Territory
No people are so well situated to exercise
authority them.
However, the people of Alaska, through their
Delegate in Congress, consented to Federal con-
troll and we shall probably have Federal ad-
ministration of them for years Under the cir
cumstances it is pleasing to realize that there
is a man of Mr. O'Maley's ability, knowledge
of the subject courage and integrity at the head
of the administration.

Concerning Henry O'Malley.
ALASKA Weekly.)


In the last issue of The Alaska Weekly we
ran an editorial the subject of Alaska's
Fisheries which has occasoned considerable COM
ment-some adverse and some in hearty agree
ment. We are not particularly interested in
either agreement disagreement since our edi-
torial expressions constitute only the opinions
of the staff of this publication at which We
have conscentiousy arrived and for which we
have not yet found it necessary to apologize.
We do, however, object strenuousy to any
msinterpretation of intent or meaning. We
wish to state emphatcally that the editorial
referred to not intended as nor can it be
possibly construed to be attack on Mr.. Henry
O'Malley, IT, S. Commissioner of Fisheries. Our
contention was and still Is that Alaskas FISHERIES
should be administered from Alaska for the good
of ali concerned but we wish to go on record
as convinced that long the present law
remains in force capable man could
be found to administer it than Mr.. O'Maley.
We do not entirely agree with his course In
closing the fisheries, he did. without re-
course We think that it would have been
better judgment to have issued temporary
closing order leaving late fall fishing open II
conditions justified such course. II he has
made any mistake the above is the only charge
that can be laid at his doOr-and it should be
remembered that except concerns few scat
tered areas not single bit OF evidence Is so fal
available to prove that his orders for com
plete shutdown not entirely justified as thu
only of insuring an adequate escape
ment.
Once more let us say that our contention
has been and still is that such autocratic power
as that invested in Commissioner O'Malley Il
wrong in principle and that the Territory o.
Alaska should administer its own fisheries. W.
none the less firmly realize that there is no i'm
mediate likelihood of changing the law ant
wish to reiterate belief that SO long as thu
present law is in force that there is no MAJ
| in the country who by virtue OF experience
| first hand knowledge honesty and sincerity
of purpose is so thoroughly qualified to ad
minister that law is Henry O'Malley.

1t is not only the affabe manners and dapper
appearance of Mayor Walker that startle the
staid burghers of Berlin. but his extreme youth

to Them since there official records OF the
Mayors age and political activities But GER
tainly in his jaunty spirit he might easily be
taken for an incurable youth.
This is not the first time that Germans have
wondered at young Americans holding important
official positions. When the Preparations Com
missioner, Mr. Parker Gilbert, arrived in Berlin
the reporters thought that some undergraduate
in college had turned up by mistake. But they
have since found that there is such thing as
an old head on young shoulders.
The special reason for German wonder al
Mayor Walker is easy to understand. There ne

special training and long experience. The same
idea may be said to be slowly making its way
in America through the new office OF City Man

a better understanding and more
