TAX LAW IS UPHELD.

The decision of the Appellate Court affirming the decision of Judge G. F. Alexander of the local Federal District Court in uphoding the validity of the Territorial license tax nonresident fishermen must be gratifying to the Legislators who enacted 1t in 1883 despite grave warnings from interested parties that it would be declared invalid. Without having the full text of the opinion rendered by the Circuit Court of Appeals 1t is evident that the contention that nonresidents engaged in fishing here could not be taxed at rate higher than that charged residents must have been rejected. That the basis for the attack on the statute. The rate fixed by the Legislature on Alaskan fishermen is s1 and for -Alaskans, s25.
 Arguing against the constitutionality of the law, the plaintiffs asserted that Congress in enacting the present Alaska Fisheries Law specifically prohibited any discrimination in any manner. That claim cannot have been sustained by the higher court in affirming Judge Alexanders ruling of last August. Just how far the Appellate Court went in regard to this question will be interesting to note Undoubtedly it will have some bearing future legislation.
 The immediate effect of the latest decision will be to release good many thousands of dollars paid in under protest by nonresdents engaged in fishing. It also insures that the full $25 license fee be collected without protest for the present fishing season This new revenue will not be unwelcome Territory has steadily been enhanced since the beginning of the current year. All of this money will be needed, and needed badly before the end of next year if the present shipping tieup continues much longer.

Aid the Miner.
(Anchorage Times.)

The presence in Anchorage today of B. D. Stewart, Supervisig Mining Engineer for the Ter ritory, recalls the fact the Territory of Alaska has only skeleton organization for the assistance of the mining industry.
 MT. Stewart struggles along with meager allowance for his important service barely enough to modest salary and allow for an occasional short trip. He is handicapped in every way, and is the sole Government in the Territory for the assistance of industry that this year is expected to produce some $18,000,000 more in gold alone.
 Appeals to the Federal Government for funds for establishment of adequate mining department in the Territory recently brought forth results. The mining industy in Alaska, since it is going ahead to degree is doing almost solely by the sheer effort of the in the industry. Territory which can yield so many millions of wealth to the Federal Government surely deserves modern setup in the way of an organization to extend aid to the prospector and the small miner and to that all mining in the Territory is carried on properly.
 In the Province of British Columbia there is a Minister of Mines in the Cabinet and twenty specialists, including six more mining engineers and many inspectors and others, to assist in the field and otherwise. British Columbia's mining is far outstripping that of any other Pacific Coast area-and millions being returned to her people through her systematized efforts That is entirely aside from any geological services
 If the Federal Government will not aid in the establishment of a proper department of mines within the Territory the matter should be dealt with vigorously by the next Alaska Legislature. And from all that can be learned, the big mining organizations which have been formed at Juneau, Nome and Fairbanks with hundreds of members in each district are bent on seeing to it when they go to the polls that the right sort of men are sent to the Legislature to that Alaska is given adequate modern mining service. Everyone who wants to Alaska develop to the maximum will be with them in the movement.
 The candidates for the Legislature who really want to be elected and keep their to the gound in this matter will not do so in van if they come and let the people know where they stand

FINLAND TO PAY.

All of the European oepJors, with exception, have signified they will follow England's lead and default the June payments of their debt to the United States The exception is little Finland which has informed the State Department it will pay in full the s156538 when it falls due on June Is. It has never defaulted on a single payment nor reduced it, as in the of England and Italy to token offerings Her payments are not large yet there three countries with smaller ones-Lthuania Latva and Hungary all of whom in arrears
 The fact that European debtors have decided to default on their payments does not mean that they have repudated the debts They contend that economic and financial conditions vastly altered from the time of the debt settlements that they are unable to go ahead as scheduled. They contend also that there was no way in which they could tell when the settlements were made that such changes would about. For years they have been trying to force the United States into making settlements providing for large reductions Propaganda has flooded this country and all others in effort to create vide spread public sentiment for sealing down the war debt Each was willing to reduce it's own debt to the other, they argued if the United States would reduce what her debtors owed. This Nation, owing none of them, had nothing to offer in trade.
 Our answer up to now has been that what is owed to the American Government is in turn owed by it to it's domestic bondholders Its securities with definite maturity dates have to be retired or refunded. There is no way to cut them down by agreement as Europe wants done with hers. And whatever happens the taxpayers who are also the Nations creditors. will have to pay the bill
 The default of England and Italy along with the others who have heretofore defaued, probably will force resumption of discussions between the United States and the defaulting countris. That seems to be the only way in which final understanding can be reached. The entire debt question is major factor in retarding resumption of international trade. The final settlement may revolve around that as much as around the ability of the debtor nations to pay When that is reached, little Finland

agreements intended to revive foreign trade The President however, it not given authority to shift any article from the free list to the dutiabe list or vice versa nor may he, in the course of his negotiations cancel or reduce in any manner indebtedness of any foreign country to the United States" The President did not ask either of these powers The first he apparently regarded as un- necessary to his plan; the second is one which he has always shared with Congress, and carries re- sponsibilites which he would presumably be reluctant to take upon his shoulders.
 The significant feature of the legislation is that the President is given blanket authority to initiate and conduct trade negotiations with foreign nations and to make agreements, and put them into effect without the approval of Congress involving lowering of tariffs part in return for similar con- sessions from other powers. Thus, in temporarily turning over to the Executive the power to make tariffs, Congress has also empowered him to enter into trade treaties with foreign powers without rati- fication by the Senate

A Picture in Gray.
(New York world-Telegram.)

The risks of administration of permitting a political picture to be painted only in blacks and whites is lesson that the New Deal may we'll take to heart result of the primary victory of David Reed Clifford Pinchot in Pennsylvania Tuesday.
 AS far the Reed position was concerned it was clear and no shading was possible. He typifed the old order His campaign was direct challenge to the He the brilliant and able exponent lof reaction.
 Pnchot's position was not so clear-cut His part in the picture called for of the gray rather than the more positive color. Toward the New Deal he has been an in-and-outer and by no means the new orders ideal representative. But the cam paign lined up before the nation, it became a proposition of Reed victory meaning thumbs down on the Roosevelt Administration; a Pincot victory, vital one for the New Deal
 As matter of fact, there were many cross currents locally which the nation outside of Penn sylvania did not sense. The 'in-and-out' record of Pinchot was not known beyond the borders of the State they were known in Pennsylvania. To Pennsylvania itself the issue was much more com plicated much less clear, than merely of the New Deal versus the old. But not to the rest of the nation
 Accordingly, the political fact of the matter is that the Reed victory will be interpreted as the first major blow to the Roosevelt Administration; will have tremendous heartening effect the virtually moribund Republican National party
 But politicians will fool themselves greatly if they trye to place national construction upon the outcome of primary that was decided almost ex- clusveily by local issues and circumstances.
 There unprecedented Democratic regis tration, which took away from Pinchot much of the independent Republican strength he had received in former campaigns In that sense his is similar to that of Governor Philip La Toilette. of Wisconsin who was defeated for reelection years ago be- cause so many oidtime La Toilette Republicans had gone Democratic
 Lack of spirited contest in the Pennsylvania Democratic primary resulted in Democratic vote far smaller than the actual registration ftctor which may deceive outside observers. The Democrats, nevertheless are on the registration books and in November they will not stay home.

THE TARIFF BILL.

In many respects the passage of the tariff bill by Congress is one of the most outstanding victories yet achieved by the Roosevelt Administration The making of tariffs has always been function that Congress has guarded jeaously It has used it for purposes than merely to impose duties on imported goods. It has become the greatest source of logrolling and trading involving legislation tfrely foreign to tariff making in the Nationa, Legislature Thus in surrendering it. Congress does more than merely give up the authority to decide what levies shall be made against foreign com modities.
 The bill not passed exactly as it was intro- duced but the changes made are reported to have the approval of the President The measure gives fne President power for period of three years te alter any existing duty not more than 50 per cent tn order to facilitate negotiations of reciprocal trade

that further convictions could be had under that
law which was repealed by the adoption Of the 21st

based came from North Carolina, where Federal
Judge dismissed two men charged with conspiracy
to violate the national prohibition laws. The Supreme
Court upheld the district judges ruling.

members of the nations highest court, the opinion
being handed downNby Chief Justice Hughes.

WASHINGTON'S BIRTHPLACE

Although considerable attention given to
George Washingtons birthplace during the celebra-
ton of the 200th anniversary of his BIRTH in 1892 it
is likely that if asked to it the average Amer
lean would say Mount Vernon
Our first president was born, however at Wake
field, Pope's Creek some so miles below Mount
Vernon and the mansion in which he born stood
until it was burned on Christmas Eve, in $780,
Washington moved to Mount Vernon then called
Hunting Greek, when he about three years old.
The original mansion at Mount Vernon burned in
1873, and the present erected shortly there
after
His birthplace, Wakefield has long been marked
by granite shaft erected by Congress- and tract
of 365 acres of which John D. Rockefeller, Jr do
mated 254 acres has been set apart by the govern
ment as the George Washington Birthplace National
Monument.
