It is a pleasing reflection, ho\*v.. jase good i
will to the United States harmonizes with Britiau . of decency ?'
and self-respect. The Minister who has lost his post has not rep- j
resented the Empire. He has represented oil. He has not spoken s
for the British people. He has spokn for Lord Cowdray, at the t
head of the Pearson syndicate, to whom and to Lord Murray of
Elibank he owed his place. !1
In Henry Lane Wilson, the hold-over American Ambassador,
this Minister found a kindred spirit in intrigue and in hostility f
to the new Administration at Washington. The Briton has noth
been more eager to hold up the red hands of Huerta than was t
the American. The one had known of the plot that had led
to Madero's death, and the other joined in sympathy with the c
tyranny that was established. Both exerted every influence with- v
in their power to make it a success. s
In addition to his loyalty to British oil interests, Sir Lionel c
is strongly anti-American. This is the second time that he has ?
been requred to change posts because of that sentiment. He was
removed from Cuba during the second American occupation of (
that country because of his antipathy for Americans.
The success of the Administration's "new freedom" policy a
in trade and commerce could not be better demonstrated than by J
the fear that it is instilling among those of the "vested inter- 1
ests" of the Old World. Fear of the same character was one of h
the results of the "new freedom" in the political affairs of the
people that followed the adoption of the Declaration of Inde
pendence.
A WORTHY MOVEMENT. ]
D
THE action of the Pioneers of Alaska in starting a practical f
movement toward raising funds for the Pioneers' Home at n
Sitka is one that will appeal strongly to all Alaskans. No a
institution in the North has taken hold of the people with strong- b
er force than has this Home for those who have devoted the best a
years of their lives and sacrificed their health in the development fi
of Alaska. While there is no doubt but that the taxpayers of the "
Territory will keep the institution going, there are many ways in j
which an endowment such as that which the Pioneers of Alaska
will encourage would serve the men whom fate may pick to spend
their last days in the Home that cannot be met by public funds. ^
The appreciation of the residents of the Home of the Christmas
gifts that were sent them will give some idea of how greatly they
would appreciate a gift from the people of the Territory that would
enable them to enjoy some of the little luxuries of life as they 11
near the end of their time.
There is no better place for the birth of a movement to tl
raise a substantial fund for the Pioneers' Home than in the Igloos o
of the Pioneers of Alaska.
s
The lot of Tammany Leader Murphy is a hard one just now. *
With a hostile Mayor and city government, the chief-executives n
of the Nation and State against him, and rebellion in his own *
Tammany, he is probablly beginning to realize the truth of the h
Biblical axiom that "the wages of sin is death." tl
LET US HAVE GOETHALS.
LET us hope that Col. Goethals will choose to come to Alaska -
and build our railroads in preference to going to New York
and taking charge of the police. Two good ends would be
served with him at the head of Alaska railroad construction?
the confidence of the people of the Nation that they were getting
their money's worth, and excellent advertising for this Territory.
There is no question but that there would be efficiency in
every department of the construction work if Col. Goethals were
given general charge of it. The people of Alaska would get what
Congress will pay for, and the railroad system would be built
for the sole purpose of meeting the demands that it is intended
that it shall supply. And, with a man who has been in the pub-;
lie eye as persistently as Col. Goethals has been?with nothing
but credit for himself?since he was placed at the head of the h
Panama canal, devoting his talents and experience to the de
velopment of Alaska, the Territory would attract the attention of
the Nation in a way that would serve to dispel some of the ig
norance that has obtained regarding it in the past.
By all means, let us have Goethals.

WELL KNOWN PROSPECTOR
SAYS REPORTS ARE FALSE
P. P. Curamlngs, one of the besl
known prospectors of Alaska, writlnj
from Chlsana under date of January
I, 1914, says: "I promise to Igvo you
the dope on this camp and I will tc
the beet of my ability. Thore hasn't
been anything found since last sum
mer, although several holes have been
sunk and lots of drifting done. 01
:ourse thore are not many real pros
pectors here, who hare property on
promising creeks, because the creeks
hat look best are held by hot air pros
pectors who aro sending out false re
ports with the idea of causing a big
stampede here, when they hope to sell
heir wildcats to the poor suckers.
"This camp at present hasn't any
nore showing, nor any more cause for
s stampede than had Dorothy and
3oer creeks (tributaries of "Nome riv
?r) when you and I were there."
The creeks referred to at Nome never
lid pay to work.
Mr. Curamlngs is known in every
amp as "the Optimist." He is dls
sosed to look on the bright side al
srays, and is ever anxious to say a
:ood word, 1f possible, for every creek
>n which he has prospected and for
ivery section he has visited.
