TORIES BUFFALO WALTER E
CLARK
Walter Clark, the P.-I. Washington
correspondent, seems to hare been
"buffaloed" by the toriea. " He says
Mr. YVaslcey has started off right it be
does not pres? the territorial question.
If he does that Mr. Clark thinks he |
will lose the support of some of his
constituency .
About all the constituents whose sup
port Mr. Waskey will lose ,'0y pressing
territorial goyemment are at Washing
ton. There are a few representatives
of tho?e non-resident corporations which
oppose self-government here but they
are scarce. In fact, the Alaskan cor
porations that appose self-government
are not many. Most of our eoporations
are in line with the best people of the f
district.
However, Mr. Clark and the toriee
have not "buffaloed" the home office
of the Post- Intelligencer. It continues
to support territorial government with
true Western vigor. But the editor of
the Post-Intelligencer lived in AlasKa
for sometime. That helps a lot.
UGLY CHARGE
The charge it made that the coal
famine being experienced along the
Pacific coast is due to the wilful failure
of the mine owners to increase their
producing capacity notwithstanding
that they fully understood that there
vu a constantly increasing demand?
a demand which was surely consuming
the surplus coal. It is charged, further,
that the shortage was predicted by
these coal mine owners months ago, and
that they saw it coming in ample time
to provide against it.
if these charges can be proved to be
true, some way should be devised for
the s:ste? and provinces of the I'nited
States and Canada or for the federal
governments to confiscate the coai
mines? or, at least, to take over their
operation. The property rights of men
who play fast and lose with absolute
necessities and human lives, just for
the profit there is in it, have no stand
ing that people are bound, of right, to
respect.

vote of 142 to 24 the following smend
ment was adopted to the appropriation
bill: J , ..
"No money appropriated in this act
shall be used in connection with print
ing documents authorized by law or
ordered by Congress or either branch
thereof unless the same shall conform
to the orthrography recognized and
used bv generally accepted dictionsries
of the English language.
COST WOULD BE
VERY LARGE
It would cost 125,000,0 0 to connect the
mainland and Vandouver island accord
ing to a recent estimate made by gov

plates a bridge across Seymour Narrows
and the construction of 134 miles of

Ooe Crisis With Chnrch
Passed in France
[Special Dispatch to Daily Alaskan[
Paris, Dec. 22? The crisis which was
expected to follow the enforcement of
the state's authority over what has
heretofore been recognized as church
property 10 days ago did not
become acute, and it is so
long past that interest in the
controversy between church and
and slate has been allayed. The church
la work ine under the new order of things
without apparent friciioa. Cardinal
Richard's solution of the difficulty,
which permitted lay members of the
church to make the declarations which
the pope refused to allow the clergy to
make, was entirely successful, satisfy
ing the law iu every respect.
The expressed sympathy of the
Italian people in many demonstrations
with the French jovernment, and the
refusal of the Spanish (rove.-nment to
participate in any manner in the
troubles between France and the Vati
can are believed to have had much to
do with the peaceable acceptance of
the situation on the part o' the church.
The government is now preparing a
further program which, it is said, will
be more drastic than any that has
gone bsfore. The church authorities
are awatiug for it with patience.
There has been no disposition on the
part of the hierarchy ofFrsnce to waver
in its support of the poper.
CHRISTMAS WILL
BE CELEBRATED
Tomorrow evening, at 7:30 o'clock
the Methodist Suoday school will have
their public Christmas celebration.
The church has been prettily decorated
in evergreens, Christmas tree, and
holly designs io a unique way, and an
effort has been made to transform Jthe
interior of the church. The public
is invied to came an! see. An inter
esting ptogram has been prepared, con
sisting of music, solos by some of the
best talent of the town, recitations and
and brief talks.
