HOW CROWN PRINCE
VIEWED THE FRENCH
Mr. Ian Malcom, M. P., in a
book entitled “War Pictures Be
hind the Lines,” just published in
London, relates a conversation he
had with the Crown Prince of Ger
many at Berlin in January, 1914,
in which the latter expressed the
opinion that the British after a!?
should be better friends with Ger
many, but could not be trusted while
allied with France and Russia; that
Great Britain and Germany to
gether could divide Europe and keep
the peace of the world, Britain
meanwhile keeping her eyes shut and
ignoring treaties while Germany
was taking Franc’s colonies. The in
terview closed by Mr. Malcom mak
ing the remark that nowadays no
body wanted war which injured
victors and vanquished, to which
the Crown Prince vigorously re
plied: “I beg your pardon, I want
war. I want to have a smack at
those French swine as soon as ever
I can.” World Wide.

GOVERNOR STRONG
RECEIVES OPINION
(From tlie Juneau Dispatch)
* Governor Strong has just receiv
ed from Hon. Bo Sweeney, assistant
secretary of the interior, a communi
cation stating that the interior de
partment holds sundry enactments of
the last territorial legislature to be
without force and effect in so far
as they materially conflict with the
acts of Congress, and are violative of
the inhibition against amendments
made in the act of 1912. Also that
no action looking to the execution of
these Alaska acts should be taken
by the governor until they have been
reported to and favorably acted up
on by Congress.
The territorial acts referred to are
those in relation to amending Section
824 of Chapter 2 of the compiled
laws of the territory of Alaska and
providing for a uniform system of
schools for the territory.
As the acts first above referred to
makes some radical changes, and the
other act providing for uniform sys
tem of schools creates a territorial
hoard of education and also creates
the office of assistant superintendent
of public instruction, the governor,
in July last, l'equested an opinion
from the honorable secretary of the
interior as to the validity of said
acts, with the result as above stated.
Preston C. West, of the office of
the attorney general’s office, in con
tinuing to give his reasons why the
territorial act is invalid, says:
“The government of the United
States belongs to Congress, and sec
ordinarily to such agencies as Con
gress may establish for that pur
pose. During their pupilage, as ter
ritories they are dependencies of
the United States. Their people do
not constitute a sovereign power. All
political authority exercised by them
is derived from the general govern
ment. A territorial law is there
fore without force and effect if it
conflicts with a federal statut^, un
less the enactment has been author
ized by Congress.
The Alaska legislature was, sub
ject to specified limitations, clothed
with the power to enact laws, by sec
tions 3 and 9 of the act of 1912, pro
vided, among other things ‘‘That the
authority herein granted to the leg
islature to alter, amend, modify and
repeal laws in force in Alaska shall
not extend to the act entitled ‘An
Act to Provide for the Construction
and Maintenance of roads, and the
establishment and maintenance of
school.’ ”
Governor Strong said yesterday that
since the attorney general holds the
law invalid some $15,000 which was
set aside for schools under the ter
ritorial act will automatically revert
to the federal school fund and that
he will use it for federal school pur
poses.
