Announced settlement of the short-lived soft coal strike another obstacl hich would have had a tendency to retard the industrial progress now under way. It indicates that both labor and industrial lead ave reached a more tenable posi- tion where diff] es of this nature can be settled without unnecessary hardship on both sides as well as inconvenience to the general public. It reveals further that the labor policy which has been adopted has removed by the Federal Government the last two years is bearing fruit In Alaska and on the Pacific Coast citizens are hoping that as ready and quiet a settlement may be reached in the threatened maritime disputes which have been slowly coming to a head in the last’few weeks.

Finally he was captured by General Fred Funston but he has re- mained a colorful figure in the aigs “of his native islands while many more influential persons have dropped from the picture The man is Emilio Aguinaldo, who recently was defeated for the Presi- dency of the Philippi by Manuel Quezon. What a name Aguinaldo was with which to Jjuggle around 1900! school boy rolled it glibly off the tip of his tongue. It rang through the halls of Congr It occ ed space in the news- papers of the world. His capture by General Funston broke the insurrection and made Funston a military hero. The United States is giving now the independ- ence for which Aguinaldo fought and the Philip- pines are entitled to a President. Aguinaldo’s defeat for the Presidency does not detract from the ro- mance of his career. Beginning as the leader of a rag-tag an a bushwhacking campaign for free- veloped the qualities making him a leader and political life of the islands follow- Still more significant is the fact that through the intervening years he has remained such a figure that when the time for home rule arrived he was one of three men sufficiently prominent to be considered for the Presidency of the new nation. Look over the United States, or Europe, for the outstanding men who were contemporary with Aguinaldo in 1900. General Funston, his captor, is long dead. Secretary Elihu Root is in retirement. Virtua all of the others have passed on. A con- exception is Lloyd George, who came to in the Boer War and has remained a e in public life in Great Britain. spicuous (hc front \HAPPY —BIR 'I'HDAY DON'T TELL 'EM, EARL. ) 2 s | tions and best wishes today, their Ohmer of the Alaska Game Commission Says| pirthday anniversary, to the follow- the ducks are so thick down around Petersburg you|ing: Jju to shoot to protect yourself from the swarms of flying mallards.

D. Stewart, Territorial Commis- sioner of Mine: Mr. Stewart was appointed to his responsible office by the Legislature which concluded its work early this year. He is now in the Anchorage area gathering information on which ‘to base & new program designed to assist in discovery and devel- opment of the mineral properties in the Terri-| tory No natural resources of the Territory are com- parable to those of mining.’ The fishing industry at present has to its credit a greater annual return in dollars and cents but the industry is carried on chiefly by large outside concerns which import labor by the wholesale and take the product immediately out of the country and pay off the greater number of employees in outside cities and distribute or hold | the profits from sales of the product outside. The mining industry employs chiefly northern men and distributes its payrolls in the North. Furth-| ermore the potentialities of mining are far in excess of those of fishing. Alaska's mineral resources are scarcely touched. Mr. Stewart, with a limited less than $30,000 at his disposal, has very little cash available with which to effect the necessary establishments for carrying out the program for assisting the prospector and the miner. His task of now gathering data on the industry, which will be submitted in his annual report, will be invaluable in guiding the next Legislature, and| in inducing investment. Mr. Stewart knows his Al- aska as well as any man in the mining game but; he needs the assistance and co-operation of every community, every organization .every individual. Everyone in postiion to help the Commissioner of Mines should do so, and do it now. By getting behind him and helping to put over the program for the development of Alaska’s dormant mineral resources Alaskans will be rendering themselves a service which will d dividends in the aggregate of millions per annum appropriation of Unofficial Friends. (Ketchikan Chronicle.) It is probable that in the next year or two, Alaska will have more national attention than it has had since the days of the gold rush. On the heels of the Federal project in Matanus we may expect all sorts of wildeat schemes: promotions designed to to develop its resources populate Alaska, These promoters doubtless will do their dirty work in the States, getting dollars from hopeful people who may easily be convinced of riches in the far north. To that extent, Alaska will be for- tunate. But as the wildcat ventures fail, then Alaska itself must suffer. Perhaps Alaska can do something toward scrut- inizing schemes broacheq in the States. Still, it is often difficult to appraise the worth of development projects, and it may be that in the'long run Alaska can do most good merely by warning everyone on the outside to think twice before pinning hopes on epochal developments in Alaska. For it must ever be true that Alaska will develop not through any wand-waving, but only through hard work. H It would be unfair, of course, to brand as pre- posterous all the many schemes which must inevit-| ably be advanced in the months to come. Some of them doubtless will be good. Nevertheless, it must pay to be cautious.

Faulkner received news of the death of her aunt, Mrs. Frank E. Stevens, in Hoquiam, Washington, and left on the Mari- posa, enroute for that city, where she was to spend two or three weeks. Dr. Stork paid. another call in Juneau, a son having been born to the wife of “Jack” Tund, a well- known Juneau-Fairbanks printer. All parties concerned are gatting along fine. M. J. O'Connor, Paul Bloedhorn and Barney Conrad returned on the gasboat Celtic from Eagle River, where for the past few days they have been looking over the O'Con- nor properties. In response to the petition of Dr. Robert Simpson, requesting a board walk from the junction of Calhoun Road and Gold Belt Avenue to ‘he city limits, the council unanimous- ly voted in favor of building the walk and ordered work started at once. Agriculture was reported to show favorable progress in Anchorage and vicinity. Every time the boats !come down from the Matanuska Landing vicinity they were load>d with agricultural products and people of Anchorage existed almost wholly upon products grown in their gardens.
