* announcement that the army trans
ports Genera! Jacobs and Genera!
Davis are to be operated in con
nection with the Alaska Railroad.
As has been frequently pointed ou,;
in the columns of The News, ade
quate river connection with the
railroad is vital to the success of
the big Government enterprise and
vital also to the development and
prosperity of those districts along
the Tanana and Yukon rivers which
have been all but wiped off the map
by the withdrawal of the Canadian
steamers from those streams. The
present season has demonstrated
the need of Government action and
the inauguration of a regular river
service at the opening of naviga
tion next spring will prove the wis
dom of the river connection. The
railroad has rescued a portion of
the Interior from the grip of the
merciless Canadian octopus, and it
will please Alaskans mightily if the
few remaining boats of the foreign
corporation are driven from Alaska
water, giving relief to those sections
which are remote from the rail
road.
The operation of steamers in
connection with the railroad, while
it may drive foreign boats from the
Yukon river, will not interfere seri
ously with the mosquito fleet oper
ating out of Nen-ana Small boats
will continue to run between N’enana
and the Kantishna and the Tolo

new business created for them at
other points along the river. They
will cooperate with the Government
steamers and the general public
will reap the benefit of the im
proved service.

While it is easy to believe some
of the rail strikers have been guilty
of acts of violence during the las:
several weeks, with hired thugs bait
ing them at every rail center, it is
equally easy to believe that not all
of the affidavits submitted by Attor
ney General Daugherty are genuine.
It has been charged that Attorney
General Daugherty received a fat
fee from Charles W. Morse a num
ber of years ago. while Morse was
languishing in Leavenworth prison,
and there was much talk of fake
affidavits in connection with the
release of the wealthy crook. But
aside from the question of faking
affidavits, the attempts that are be
ing made to run the country by the
injunction plan should be discour
aged and it is the sincere hope of
The News that the vicious practice
will be halted before it obtains
firmer hold upon the nation.
With England and Turkey on the
verge of conflict, the League of
Nations begins to look like a peace
time extravagance.
