All eyes in Alaska are turning right now toward Juneau. Within a few days the Territorial capital will be humming with Legislators from every part of the vast Northern domain in biennial session. Members of both houses of the Legislature are now invading the capital and beginning to make ready for the task that lies before them. They probably will be occupied with the work for two months. These two months, beginning the first week in March, promise to be fraught with legislative labors of deep importance to every part of the Territory. Each of the four divisions has its peculiar wants and the Territory as a whole has matters of urgent concern with which the Legislators will be called upon to deal. The financial stress prevailing in the Territory, while not so acute as in many portions of the States, demands courageous and immediate consideration. number of cities are loud in their demands for more adequate support from the public. treasury. Business: generally shows no improvement. | Yet it is easy to manify the proportions of cur-| rent unrest. Noting disorders in Wisconsin farm-| ing districts, one must remember the other 47 States.| Reading of the rough handling of mortgage holders on farms in Ohio, Towa and other States, one must recall the thousands of farms where no disorder has occured. Above all, one must bear in mind the patience and hopefulness of millions of men and women who are unemployed. Members from most sections of the Territory have recelved from Chamber of Commerce and their constituents intimations of what remedial or con- structive legislation they desire. From all reports the various demands will bring forth many measures for consideration and there is little doubt but what each and every member will have his time more than occupied from beginning to end of the session. With the Legislature almost unanimously Demo- cratic, it also is likely to have the co-operation of a Democratic Governor before the session ends, par- ticularly if Washington deals early with recommen- dations of various Democratic Territorial organiza- There has been a significant absence of violence| in the popular protests. We must credit this largely| to the wholesome temper of the people, who realize the extreordinary difficulties which governmental| and industrial leaders face. This quality is the; surest guarantee of coming through depression with-| out violent social upheaval. Such unrest as we are witnessing seems to be traceable to two principal causes. The one is unem- | ployment and extremely low prices for farm products. The other is dissatisfaction with the siuggish en-| deavors of the just expired Congress, augmented,‘ perhaps, by apprehension as the Administration | changed hands. Neither of these factors is such<‘ that positive action in Washington cannot correct it. Fortitude has been the outstanding character- istic of our people. Matched with courage among their leaders, this will carry the Nation into a better day. Already; President.Roosevelt is exhibiting those qualities of leadership that the country has been waiting for. The result ought to be reflected with- out delay in substantial betterment in every condi- tion throughout the country. THE BOY SCOUTS. tions of Juneau will stage their annual Fathers and Sons Dinner. This is an event of unusual interest to the entire community. remind us of the great service in character building that the organization has performed and to quicken our interest in the well-being and prosperity of the Boy Scouts. Recently Scouting celebated its Twenty-third Anniversary. In connection with the observance it launched a project that deserves the co-operation and support of all good eitizens, namely an extension of its activities in a Ten-Year Program designed to build a body of genuinely patriotic citizens, thor- oughly devoted to the public welfare and entirely committed to the advancement of the public interest. This Ten-Year intensive program was officially launched on January first. It is to run for the decade 1933-1942. By the end of that period the Boy Scouts of Americh plan to be training enough boys as Scouts so that as they reach 21 years of age not less than one of every four of the new male citizens shall have been a four-year-Scout-trained man prepared to perform his new duties upon the basis of Scout principles and ideals. It is a widely known fact that Boy Scouting has proved an effective agency in the lives of millions of boys. There is ample testimony to the benefits to the boyhood of America that followed the promulgation of the Scout plan twenty-three years ago when Scouting was first launched in America. Now with the Scout Ten-Year Plan there 1s equal certainty that there will be more participat- ing citizens all with Scout training, and it is fair to assume there should be less violation of law and more unselfish service for others. It never hurt any boy to be a Boy Scout. SELLIN » SPORT FISHING. The most noteworthy effort in that direction is the pamphlét just issued by the Department of Commerce, and written by Henry O'Malley, Com- missioner of Fisheries. The 20-page booklet publish~ ed as Fishery Circular 13, of the Bureauw of Fish- eries, is well-written, contains facts regarding the opportunities for the.followers of Isaak Walton, and, carrying the weight of official. authority, should provide a stimulus to sport fishing that will be felt in every section of Alaska. Commissioner O'Malley is no less a sportsman than an administrator of the commercial fisheries. At some pains he has listed the bettdr known areas for various kinds of sport fishing. He has told the sportsmen when, where and how they can fish in Alaskan waters. He sums up his article as follows: Truly, Alaska is the land of real promise and opportunity for anyone who wishes to ' indulge in the gentle and enticing art of angling. An abundance of easily accessible fish, both fresh water and salt water varie- disciples of Isaak Walton, whether novice or seasoned veteran.

These recommendations have urged the early appointment of a new Gov- ernor so that he may be fully in sympathy and better able to act in harmony with both the Terri- torial and Federal governments. The Territorial Legislature will be confronted by several major issues, chief among them raising of |revenues and the proper distribution of the same in order to carry on various Territorial services to best advantage. Now that the session is about to convens, it be- hooves all loyal Alaskans to be alert to see that their representatives at Juneau are supplied with all necessary data and given the hearty and firm sup- port they will need. The Third Division is ably represented, and its members go well armed with information and re- commendations from the various centers. The An- chorage Chamber of Commerce has placed a number of recommendations before the members from this locality. Before the session ends it may be necessary to supply further data and support to the members, and Anchorage and all sections of the Third Division will find it greatly to their interest to be vigilant and ready to act as occasion may require. Beer for New York. (Cincinnati Enquirer.) The preliminary report of the New. York State Liquor Commission is an interesting document, showing the trend of opinion with respect to the regulation of liquor once the Federal law is modi- fied. The commission has made no effort as yet to devise a complete and integrated system for handling liquor, but has tried to work out a plan for regulating the manufacture and sale of beer, on the assumption that the Volstead Act would be modified to permit beer in advance of general repeal of the Eighteenth Amendment. The commission’s principal recommendations call for: (1) Nonpartisan boards in counties and for the State as a whole, nominated by bar associations, medical socleties, labor groups and Chambers of Commerce, appointed by the judiciary, to serve without pay; (2) wide powers in these boards to grant and cancel licenses to sell beer;‘ (3) restric- tion of sales to restaurants, hotels and beer gardens, with no licenses for saloons or taverns; (4) strict regulation of manufacture by the State board; (5) rigid ban against manufacturers having a financial interest in retail outlets; (6) a ban against competi- tive advertising af alcoholic drinks, and (7) mod- erate taxation of beer to permit its sale at five cents for an eight-ounce glass. Short of a State dispensary system, which is not 50 helpful with beer as with distilled liquors, this general plan appears to be the surest method of preventing abuses in the liquor traffic. The report lays great emphasis on securing citizens of the high- est standing to serve on State and county liquor boards, since their character is the one factor that can prevent heer getting into politics as it once was. It is a wise approach also in avoiding elaborate detail in the proposed legislation, CHAPTER 49. THE SOLUTION There was a long silence. The vicar's stick leaned idle against his knee. Barbara began to won- der whether the old man had gone to sleep. When he moved, how- ever, and eyed her from under the wide shadow of his hat, she saw that he was very much awake. “What's in the back of your head, my dear Barbara, is that, in the end the only reason Farrell has not been able to buy you is that he has too much money.” She frowned. 3 “Well, in a way. Yes. Perhaps. Yes, 1 suppose his strength is, fun- damentally, money.” “Then I have a piece of directly heaven-sent news for you. Most of the Armitage fortune went ‘in the Metrie crash last week. Far~ rell isn't penniless, but he will have to fight his way up the ladder again as he was born quite half-way up to start with he is going to find climbing a very hu- miliating and bitter thing.” There was another long silence. Then— “What did you say about Far- rell?” stammered Barbara. “Oh, nonsense, you heard me perfectly” returned the vicar. “Get up and run along and find him; your brain will begin to work once you are moving. I left him right at the top of the house packing up a case of little fancy-dress dolls. A wedding present I gathered, for you and Mark.” * * . . B ° . “You swear this isn't pity, Bar- bara?” “It isn't pity.” d “Because I'm no Mark. I don't want support. I never will let you {reer. I'm down now, but I'll "be up again. Tl give you pearls yet, and T shall loathe it if you can afford them before I can. I sup- pose it's pride, but I'm not used to poverty—" “You gave me a year to learn that I should be happier married to you than to Mark. Now the year is up, and I've come to tell you you were right. I want to marry you. Do you still want me? Or not?” “Do you love me Barbara? I love you?” “I love you—in my own fashion. I can't love otherwise. Isn't it enough?” In this empty roof nothing seem- jed to register as real and articu- late except for some reason, Far- rell’'s hands. “He is—very easily hurt just now.” Yes, his hands were the hands of a man easily hurt. Whereas, Mark's hands were strong and greedy and clever, these. were trained only to physical com- bat or to social ease. They looked (helpless now fumbling with a tiny silk-clad doll. “No, better get it clear,” said Barbara, as though the old vicar were at Farrell's elbow. “Perhaps my kind of life isn't enough for you. I can't pretend, you see, to ibe other than I am. Farrell, that first night when we found Leila’s portrait in the Toxeter house you said that when Mark was well and rich and enjoying life T should be free to choose. Spirit-free. That's come true. But you said I'd choose you. That didn't come true until now that you may have need of me.” “Then it is pity?” “What if it is? If I can't love you until I can help you, why should you be hurt by that? You say you fell in love with me at first sight, but I think you loved your own idea of what you were to make me. I am not like that. I can’t be hung with pearls at the end of your battles. I must be in the battle too. And I think that if all that is pity you will just have to endure it as I shall have to endure your pride and your stupid little sorenesses. “But, perhaps,” asked Barbara, suddenly all gaiety because of the surrender of his empty hands, “you would like a year in which to come to see that I am right” . . . . . . . At six o'clock punctually Leila ceased to be the best-dressed girl at Malavie's and, stepping west- wards, became rapidly more and more outmoded.

At least I suppose {I do. In a way. But when I choose. Not when she chooses.” “Barbara didn't send that an- nouncement, Mark. She thought it was your doing.” Mark gaped. For a moment he {looked like his mother. | “She was angry about it,” con- tinued Leila shortly. “So angry that she went off early this morn- ing and definitely promised to marry Farrell.” “That's a lie.” “No. It isn’t.

His shoulders trembled. “Oh, Mark, don’t!

Leila, her eyebrows very arched, waited. Mark shut the door sulkily. “All right!” he grumbled. “We will get married, then, and before they do.
