The fact that the authorities thus
far have been unable to put their
hands on the man who iobbed the
postoffice at Fairbanks refgntly,
must not be construed as an invita
tion to professional crooks to invade
this part of Alaska. Instead of let
ting down the bars to the lawless
element, the theft of money con
signed to the Alaskan Engineering
Commission has put postal and de
partment of justice officials on their
metal and the public is heartily in
sympathy with their determination
to presene the fair name of Interior
Alaska as a place of safe abode.
Mail robbers and holdup men are
not wanted in this part of the Ter
ritory, or the riff-raff from the
coastal region who live by their
wits, playing crooked cards, picking
pockets and sneaking in unguarded
doors. As large as is Interior Alaska
there is no room here for such as
they, and the few who have drifted
in lately by mistake should advise
their pals along the line that there
is not even a whistling station for
crooks on this end of the Govern
ment railroad.
The News is pleased to note that
it is the intention of Governor Bone
to insist upon a more rigid en
forcement of the dry law in those
sections of Alaska where the illicit
traffic appears to have gotten the
upper hand. It is not fair to law
abiding communities to permit open
violation of the law in other com
munities and the governor has been
both prompt and firm in his demand
for impartial enforcement. In this
connection it is pleasing to recal1
that Governor Bone found Nensna
well behaved on the occasion of his
recent visit, and with no record of
misconduct to mar th“ e.nj .ivmeot
-of his brief stay here.
If talking will do any good, norm
al conditions will soon be restored
throughout the country. Men of
prominence in national and business
affairs profess to see better times
just ahead, and the return of na
tional prosperity, it is believed, will
be speeded greatly by the publicity
jrievn unemployment problems at the
recent Washington conference. All
that is lacking, apparently, is action
on the part of Congress and those
captains of industry whose power
is such that they can create almost
any conditions they desire.
Secretary of the Interior Fall, ac
cording to The Mining Congress
Journal, has announced that it is
his intention to give his personal
attention to the affairs of the
Alaskan Engineering Commission,:
which have been supervised largely
in the past by one of the many'
assistants in the office of the secre-1
tary. This shoul bring Secretary
Fall in closer touch with Alaska and
the Government railroad and expe
dite the shaping of a definite Alaska
policy. Let us hope that it does,
for within a very short time the
railroad will be ready for tonnage,
of which, as things stand at pres
ent, there is very little in sight.!
And all because of the lack of a
definite policy for the development
of the Territory.
Those restless ones who have left
Alaska to make their homes under
other suns, will have to travel far
to find a climate comparable with
that of our own Tanana Valley,
with its even-tempered seasons and
all-year invigoration. .And particular
ly can we laud the season now near
ing a close, for under its benign in
fluence ail of the varied industries
of the valley have prospered as
never before.

Even winter in Alaska has its
bright side for it is not often, after
cold weather sets in. that we arc
disturbed by premature announce
ments of visits from Washington.
Today’s mail will bring a lot of
news concerning Alaskans in the
States. The News will appreciate
the receipt of any items of interest,
by phone or otherwise.
Snow and thawing weather in the
Canyon district have caused consid
erable trouble this week from slides.
