The harbor and contiguous waters are absolutely clear of ice and floes at all times. There are no dangerous currents and no fog, and navigation is never impeded by weather conditions Within the natural harbor there are eight wharves and a drydock with a capacity of 20,000 tons and a length of 600 feet. A modern grain elevator 1,250,000 bushels capacity has bene constructed by the Dominion Government in anticipation of the growth of an important export trade from this port. on and PRISONERS AND ROAD WORK. The movement to have Federal prisoners from southern penitentiaries work on Alaska roads is worthy of very serious consideration. It is contended by physicians and wardens that work in the open air is beneficial to the health and morale of pris- oners. It is admittedly difficult to find Federal work in the States where the prison labor would be available. In Alaska, those who favor the proposal believe, it would be different There roads needed everywhere, and it is the province of the Federal Government to build them. It is contended that it would not in anywise affect the appropriations from Congress or through the Federal Highway Aid Act, but would mean that much additional work. It is also said by those prison officials and oth who interested in the matter that the Government not send dangerous or long-term convicts to Alaska. It would, they say, pick men from among those who volun- teer for the work who would have no inducement to break jail, and those who come would be returned to the penitentlary from which they were selected before being discharged. The prisoners, it is con- tended, would not compete in any way with work- ingmen or free labor. They would do work that otherwise would not be done. In the end, this is a matter that ought to be passed upon by road builders and technical The Empire does not profess to have the knowledge or information that would make it competent judge of what ought to be done in the but it secems very clear that it is something that ought not to be turned down without thorough consideration from those who are informed in the premises. are A Generous Gift. (New York Times.) When a purely partisan move in the game of politics is at the same time a stroke in the, public interest, politicians who make it feel very virtuous. An occasion of the sort is reported from Wyoming, where the Democratic State Committee has acted to insure the lengthened tenure of a Republican, the newly appointed Senator Sullivan. Under the terms of a law passed in 1927, he must win his seat at a special election, to be held soon, even though success will give title only until March, 1931 The committee has petitioned the Legislature to repeal this law and let Mr. Sullivan serve until a successor is chosen next November. reason given by the Democrats is that the special election would add to the already heavy tax burdens of the citizens of Wyoming. The committee is willing to waive any chance its own candidate might have to defeat Mr. Sullivan at the special election, and reserve its efforts for next November. Cynics may say that the Democrats couldn’t win if the special election were held, and that there- fore their gesture is hollow. But so handsome a gift horse should be inspected in that spirit, and it is to be hoped that the Legislature will accept Because he is said to have declared in a speech suggestion.
