time, tor years we nave borne

ness. Since ttie earnest periods t
01 *eal ueveiopment we have been s
the victims 01 wnoiesaie exploit- ;
ation in every conceivaole lorin. *
Every business association, ;
every corporation that has ever s
had extensive dealings with the (
territory has clawed and bit, ,
gougeu anu bled until we nave
giown heart sick, mind weary,
witli watching tne lusttul ravages
that we could not avoid. Condemn
ed by the unfortunate isolation of
the territory to take wTiat we
could get, we have for years been
compelled to stand aside, utterly
unable to offer an effective pro
test, no matter what was done to
us. Although smarting inwardly
at the sight of the vultures tear
ing at tneir helpless prey, for
nearly two decades we dared not
even raise our voices to frighten
them away from the feast so in
vitingly' spread for them to bat
ten on. But, times have changed.
The people of Alaska are com
mencing to learn that they need
- . — —
no longer remain passive while
tlie corporation pirates carry on
their joytul task ot oleeuing the
territory ot every cent that the
traffic will bear. We are grauuai
;v growing to understand that
we uo not have to bow to tne
lustful demands of those who
aave no other interest in the ter
ritory or its people than, to bleed
them of every cent tn&t can pos
sibly be exacted under the guise
of business necessity. We are
learning, slowly mueed, but, still
learning, that we have passed
the time when we had to take
what we could bet and be thankful.
It is dawning upon us, through
the efforts of the long and seem
ingly unrequited years, we have
been making progress; have been
going ahead with ever increasing
striues; that all unknown to
even ourselves, we have been
ouuumg up a mighty commerce
which otters a great and ever
growing neid to tnose who wish
o take upon themselves the task
of supplying its demands. Vv e are
waking up to the fact that our
trade is ot such value that we
need not beg for bidders to share
:ii tlie prohts. We are commenc
ing to see quite plainly that we
are becoming independent; are
even ame to nave a say m what
treatment shall be meted out to
us in our dealings with others
ana are last appioaching the time
when we will be in a position to
ueinanu lair ana decent treatment
liom even tne corporation pirates
wno have held us, wiuy nniy, un
uer tneir tnumbs. Vv e are com
mencing, at last, to stand on our
own leet. leather sooner than ex
pected we are going to cast off
.ue corporation shackles whicli
nave bound us hand and foot and
arise in tlie harness ot a newly
discovered strength to demand
our rignts. Vv e could do so today
.\ere it not for the fact that we
have giown so used to corpora
tion usurpation and tyrany that
we are scarcely able to realize
;hat we can be the masters by
amply holding up our great com
meicial neeus as a reward for
hose who will treat us fair. Al
hough we do not realize it, we
a tins section of Alaska can of
er a trade valued at over four !
nillion dollars per annum as an
ncentive to competition which ,
vill soon bring our present trans
lortation and commercial masters
o terms. (
If there is one thing, more than
ny other which should bring us
o a proper realization of the pos
'.bilites in this direction it is this ■
atest attempt of the transporta- •
ion companies to squeeze us a
ittle harder- Are we going to <
tand for it when we have every >
ipportunity to avoid it, if we
vill? We wonder.
INTERNATIONAL PEACE.
Boston Record.
Elihu Root puts very clearly
ind sanely the status of interna
tional peace as an enduring con
dition. He touches the nerve of
the whole matter when he raises
the query whether what we call
international law is to be contin
ued as a mere code of etiquette or
is to be a real body of laws im
posing obligations much more
definite and inevitable than they
have been heretofore.
It is not difficult, in a time
when war issues are not incis
ive and immediate, to draw up, or
maintain, a code of- ethics to

White Boot
j - y * ■*'&*'••'■ ‘With tho Red-Lino ’round the Top”
You know that when a boot conies in and
simplv sweeps the whole country like
“HIPRESS” has done, it’s GOT to be
SOMETHING UN USUAL
White Goodrich ‘’PiPRESS’* Boots actually wear
longer than iron or steel 1 You don’t have to lialf
so’e them vith leather—they fir outwear hob
nuiled leather golcs. The reason for this unusual service is that
‘‘HIPRESS” ore constructed by an entirely new process—fifty years
ahead of I he old,
Made of tin) (tamo tough rvt>K-‘» that goes into Goodrich A nfco Tires—vraided
together under enormous proauwe INTO ONE SOLIU PIECE!
Nothing *o come apart —they can’t huh, p*al, crack or split! They're comfort

wearing White “HIPiiESS” you’ll nc-ver b« sativilwl with anything else. And

• rnmmi'rmum in,
which most nations will agree
But the international code musl
have something more than a mor
al force, effective in times ol
peace and when no international
issue intervenes of such power at
to upset this moral force.
As the world stands today, in
ternational law is a pleasant as
. sertion of admirable principles;
and 90 long as the temptation to
violate them is not strong, they
prevail. But when national heat
rises to the fever point, we have
the ripping up of principles, the
scattering of “scraps of paper’
and all the grim program now
unfolding before the world’s eyes
The problem, then, is not sc
much a more exact codification oi
the principles of international law
as unity on a means of applying
what all nations are inclined aca
merically to accept.
