greater difficulties but with this vital difference: They had the assurance that the resources of the new land would be theirs to develop, theirs to have and to hold We ask in all seriousness, where would the great states of Oregon and Washington be to- day if their timber lands had been held in great tracts and administered for the benefit of one or two great corporations? If the individual settler, the small logger and the small mill owner had not been permitted to pave the way for the greater things which followed in due course? Just what inducements are being offered the prospect i've Alaskan settler to go upon the land, carve out a home and wiring from the wilderness a livelihood? Inducements? We nould name a number of would be homeSteaderS who have faced md are still facing heart breaking delays and discour- agements. It is a shame to say it but our sawmills are bank Iupt with one of the greatest stands of timber at their very doors; and our loggers are plac- cd under impossible restrictions.
 Meanwhile markets go begging or look elsewhere for satisfac-
 ion while we wait and wait and wait for the long promised pulp nills-and our over-ripe timber goeS back to mother earth. And all because of the Shortsighted ;llconceived policy of withhold ing the resources of our Terri ory from our own people and administering them for the ben eft of outside corporations in Seattle and San Francisco and Chicago, whose stockholders know nothing and care less about Alaska and it's future, but demand the last farthing in di- vidends.
 There are resources enough in Alaska to provide comfort and security to all her people and | thousands more-if-and only when, the opportunity to devel- op them is made available to the inCmebuilder; when the resident citizen can secure at least a few days employment during the season free from the ruinOuS
 competition of Oriental and Filipino labor; when the seiner and gillnetter and the man with less expensive gear is given an equal opportunity with the trap
 owner to participate in our fish
 cries; when the small logger
 and millOwner is given the same kind of encouragement and con
 sideration as the pulp combine
 with all it's millions to tie up
 our best lands for the future benefit of stockholders beyond
 our borders; when the family
 man can provide for his babes
 without being forced to steal fish out of the creeks or beat his
 grocery bill-in short whenever
 it is possible for settlers to live Iherc in self-respecting, law-abid
 ing decency, the settlers will
 come, for the instinct to settle
 down to multiply and replenish
 the earth is as old as Adam.
 Let us be not deceived. The
 International Highway is all
 right. By all means, let it come
 and come soon. But as a pana-
 cea for our present ills and pains, it simply does not touch the sore spot at all.

HUNCARIANS MAY
RESTORE THRONE
To YOUNG OTTO

BUDAPEST, Nov. 10. W.P!-The
possibility of putsch for the resto-
ration OF the HapSburg dynasty &c
the Hungarian throne was seen il
Hungary today on the eve of the
18th birthday of Archduke Otto
young son of the Ex-empress Zita.
Otto will be l3 years old tomor-
row and will become of age by what
is known as the ''housc law" of the
Hapsburgs, But for the detnrone-
ment law Of 1921. passed under du-
ress due TO pressure of the Little
Entente Powers, he would become
King of Hungary.
Speculation here on possible pro-
cedure OF the supporters OF the
Hapsburgs tomorrow included the
launching of trail balloon or
ballon d'esSai, to test the reaction
Of diplomatic circles.
According to reports, LegitimiSts
desired the presidents of both houses
of parliaments to declare the de-
thronement law of 1921 null and
void, because 1t was passed under
foreign compulsion This would give
Otto The opportunity to enter into
de jure rights as king, and the con-
stitutlon, and other conditions relat-
ing to the return OF the hapsburgS
would be made clear in due course.
An alleged plan for the marriage
of Otto and Princess Maria, young
est daughter of the King and Queen
OF Italy, is said to be among the
aims of the Legitimists.
