PHILOSOPHY AND THINGS

! In your conversation use short words
and not too many OF them.
Love may be blind, but lovers are
often spectacles for other people.
A husbands love is on the wane
when he begins to stop kicking his
wife's pet dog.
When man marries girl for her
beauty, he ought not to be surprised
or disappointed, either, if he doesn't
get much else.
He'd lots of hair upon his chin,
But none upon his head
He always spoke before he thought,
So many people said.
An Indiana woman was made to pay
damages to the extent of $126 for say.
ing that her neighbours beauty was ar
tificial.
Foster Brown says that by the year
1850 Great Britain will have used H.
10Th of its best resources OF coal, and
that there will then remain workable
at a gradually increasing cost, sufficient
coal to last $50 years.
''But could you bring yourself ia
marry a woman who smoked cigar.

had insisted that woman had right to
smoke if they chose. "No; have
enough people begging my cigarettes

Salmon Industry.

Salmon Industry.
OF the salmon industry, great deal
is said. There can be no doubt that
this industry is one of great importance,
for from figures given it is seen that
the Alaskan output in the last year
marketed at $2.977.019. The red
salmon seems to far outnumber all 9TH
ers, although the pink and silver
salmon are found in large numbers.
Comparatively few king salmon were
taken last year. To pack these salmon
for shipment, over 5000 laborers are
employed, and, strange to say. the most
of them are Chinese. 1t has been
found almost impossible. to educate the
native Alaskan Indian to American
canning methods, and this, together
with the fact that Chinese labor is ex-.
ceedingly cheap, may account, in a
measure. for the large number Of Chi
nese in the canneries. This salmon
trade during the past year was of suffi-
cient proportions to keep in constant
use, during the season, So steamers, in
addition to the 712 lighters and small
boats. -. -.
In the opinion of the governor.
Alaska should be we'll supplied with
inspectors, the present force of two be-
ing decidedly inadequate.

he would have no assurance that It
would be accepted by the government.
II he settles as a squatter and makes
improvements, he cannot tell how
future surveys may affect him. In con-
sequence of this condition OF affairs,
not single homesteader has attempted
to make entry under. the new law in the
land Office at Sitka.'
In the matter of wagon roads, rail-
roads. etc., a different condition exists.
As soon as the right Of way bill had
passed, numbers of filings we're made,
and several roads of various character
are now in progress of construction.
At. Unga, Berner's bay and Douglass
island there are railways in operation,
although solely for use in connection
with the mines. The Pacific & Arctic
Railway & Navigation Company has
probably made more progress than any
of the other large companies, having
completed IA miles of road over almost
impossible country. Moreover, go
much of the road as is completed is
constructed of the best material, by the
best of workmen, and is in every way
first-class. Money has not been spared,
and as result the road stands without
a peer. It might be mentioned, in this
connection, that, owing to the limita-
tions of the timber laws, it was found
best to import great deal of timber,
and nearly all the timber and lumber
used in building Dyea and Skagway,
their railroads and mills, was shipped
from Pugest sound.
The governor expresses the hope that
congress, during the short session, will
pass upon code of civil procedure for
the district of Alaska.
