sites; and nothing in the code shall be
construed 30 as TO prevent the miners
in any regularly organized mining dis
trict not within any recording district
established by the court from electing
their own mining recorder to act as
such until recorder thereof has been
appointed by the court
1t Is provided that the reservation OF
a roadway sixty feet wide under sec
ton ten OF the act Of 1898. shall not APP
ply to mineral lands or town sites. The
code contains no provision which
changes the law in respect to the loca-
ton Of mining claims by powers of at
torney. and II is expressly provided that
nothing in the act shall be construed as
multiplying claims already legally To-
Gated.
An important amendment made by
the house is that which allows Alaska
a delegate in congress. The majority of
the people have been demanding this
for years. but many objected TO II for
one reason and another. among them be-
ing Gov. Brady, and the senate allowed
no delegate. The house made provision
for a delegate. however. but whether it
will stand is a matter to be determined
by the conference.
A general review OF the code was pub
lished In the acknowledgements May II.
There have been no changes In the most
Of It's provisions. The district is brought
under a body of civil law but enjoys lit
tie self-government. The more impor-
tant officials are appointed by the pres
ident and these in turn name subordi-
mates. There is no local legislature or
council and such laws as the district
needs must be provided by congress.
All taxes are to be covered into the
federal treasury and the people have lit
tie to say as to how any part Of them
shall be expended for the benefit of
Alaska. These are what those who be-
lieve in a large measure Of home rule
probably be remedied as the needs Of
Alaska become better understood and
the country Is settled with a popula-
tion that Is permanent. 1t is a section of
magnificent distances, and until the
means Of inter-communication are i'm
proved and 1t has been determined
whether geographical and typographical
conditions demand division OF the ter
ritory. the present code may suffice for
all existing emergencies.

In Memoriam.

1t Is the great day of the nations
dead. Not with dimmed earnestness or
dulled feeling are our people gathered
today in every city Of the country to do
honor to the heroes who are now only
a memory but with a reverence which
recent events have deepened and a re-
greet to which they have added the
poignance of new bereavements. Neither
the nation nor the man attains its full
development by one great self-surren-
der; but always there are new labors,
new sacrifices, new CONSIDERATIONS that
the one great life may continue.
On newly-made graves as well as on
those covered by the thick sod OF many
years the wreaths of loving remem-
brance will be laid. We have given. we
are still giving, none knows how soon
we may have to give lavishly again

Is greater than the individual and di-
viner than life itself. For that old law

COTTONISTHEIR THEME.
Commissioners of Agri-
culture in Session at Raleigh.

RALEIGH, N. c., Aug. 27.-The sec
ond annual convention of the cotton
states association of commissioners OF
agriculture, of which Commissioner
Stevens of Georgia is president, will
meethere tomorrow at noon. Many OF
thedelegates arrived during the day
and more are expected tOni2 hit.
The session promises to be most in
teresting and fruitful. There are many
questions of vital Importance to the
farmers to be discussed many move
ments for the lettering of the cotton
producer to be inaugurated and many
ideas to be conveyed in the message
from the state officials of the tillers OF
the soil
Probably first in importance is the
perfection of plan outlined at the
New Orleans convention for the estl-
mate of the cotton crop at all periods
of the season. Should the present plan
of the association be executed it is be-
lieved false estimates will in the future
be impossible.
The commissioners have reached the
conclusion that the tax receiver OF
each county in each state is the prop
err man to estimate the crop.
Every Indication points to the fact
that the crop will be shOrtas compared
with last season. The figures, unotfi
cial, show that a crop of $500, 600 bale!
will be about what the commissioner
believe is in sight.

achievement recently when negro

victed aud sentenced to the gallows in
Marietta Ga, in ninety-fve minutes
but Akron, o., has made a new record
and one that. perhaps, it will be i'm
possible to eclipse. The trial, convlc-
tion and sentence to life Imprisonment
of the negro Peck at that place Tor a
similar crime, within five minutes, IS
an unpoualed achievement in the an
nails of modern courts. The state
scarcely had time to do more than put
