There is grain enough in the country

The Presidents Double,

If the President had been seeking dou-
BILE of himself, he could not have come
more closely to the mark than in the man
selected for secretary of the Navy, and
while the resemblance may be very strik-
ing there is no more possibility of his be-
ing taken for the Executive than there is
of success in palming off a substitute rem
edy for Hostetters Stomach Bitters. II
has become SO well known as cure for
headache, nervousness, Indigestion, dys-
pepsia, constipation and malaria that
many INSCRIPTIONS dealers will refill the
bottles with a bogus article and offer it
as the genuine. Beware of such counter
feits. The genuine Hostetter's Bitters
has their Private Stamp unbroken over
the neck of each bottle. Don't fail to
try it.

The Future of Alaska.

General A. w. Greeley, chief OF the
army signal corps, who has just re-
turned from a trip to Alaska, speaks
very hopefully of the general outlook
there. He says:
Il believe that the great need OF
Alaska is legislation regarding lands
timber and possibly the fishing indus
try. Strange as it may seem, there Is
no way by which even a discharged
soldier can obtain title to a honestei,c
in Alaska. 1t is true that the home
stead laws of the United States apply
to that territory. but inasmuch as such
laws have no effect except on what are
known as certified lands, it is practi-
cally of no effect, because there are re
certified lands of any worth from
homestead point of view"
General Greeley is very confident
that the territory of Alaska has
great agricultural future in store fol-
it. He calls attention to the fact that
large areas in Northern Canada tina,
were once considered worthless are
now producing crops to the value OF
millions of dollars annually, IS well as
affording grazing lands for cattle by
tens of thousands.
There is under contemplation at the
present time the establishment OF q
colony of Firms on the Kenai peninsu-
lar. General Greeley declares that the
in N the
land is fertile and the possibility OF
raising certain cereals is unequaled
anywhere. Vegetables of every variety
grow in the Copper river valley, and
grass is hardy. He saw many acres
in that region where the grass stood
from four to six feet in height. This
affords most excellent grazing, as well
as an opportunity for hay making for
the wintering of stock.
The General expresses the strong
conviction that a great mistake has
been made. in the past in looking upon
Alaska purely as a great mining camp
He says.
while the gold deposits are exceed
ingly rich they require immense capt.
tai to develop and work them. This
working can be done only by most i'm
proved machinery. OF course, there
are parts of Alaska which are barren
and Improbable, but in this enormous
region there are areas of the size OF
many of our smaller states which in
the not distant future will be inhabited
with a dense population

a large extent. The Democratic party
wants to antagonize the position of the
Republican party. The latter can best
withstand such opposition by doing the
practical thing. The Republican party
has been the only party to take sin
gle practical step toward the restric-
ton of monopoly in this country.
President Roosevelt has made some
suggestions regarding further restric-
lions which are commonly regarded as
eminently sensible. Does the Demo-
cratic party endorse them, which would
apply to the oil trust as woll as to
other trusts? No. The Democratic
party says take away the tariff, which,
if it would be productive of all they
claim for that method, could by no
means touch the oil or the coal trusts
or reduce the price of beef more than
2 cents a pound. Impracticable on the
face of it. Not only impracticable but
destructive of any united practical OPP
position to monopoly.
And yet to this party and all the
confusion and disaster it stands for
the Republican voter will lend encour-
agement by staying away from the
polls. next Monday.
Will he assume such responsibility =?

Pointed Paragraphs.

A reformer is a man who, if wise, be-
gins on himself.
Many a man of principle tries to get
unlawful interest.
1t is easier to stand prosperity than it
is to get a chance to try it.
In order to appreciate youth one must

woman; after marriage he earns for her.
When your health runs down you
should wind up some of your bad habits.
When a man finds a button in his salad
he should bear in mind that it is only a
part of the dressing.
You can never tell what a man is until
you get into an argument with him. If
his opinion doesn't jibe with yours he is
a crank.
Ministers should bear in mind that short
sermons are the most popular in summer
as well as in spring, autumn and win

The Questions at Issue in the Coal
Strike.

Strike.
Now that the great struggle in the
anthracite coal fields, is beginning to
come directly home to the people of
the country, and is sure to become a
more general matter of personal inter-
est and discussion as the cold weather
approaches, it may be well to under
stand clearly the points of difference
between the mine owners and their
striking employees. The demands made
by the miners are:
That the working day shall consist
of eight hours instead of ten.
That miners shall receive advance of
5 per cent. in the contract price now
paid for mining coal.
That coal mined shall be weighed
wherever practicable; that 2,24O
pounds shall constitute a ton, and that
the men shall have representative to
check the weights.
That minimum wage scale for day
laborers at the mines shall be estab-
lished similar the scale that exists in
the bituminous fields.
That the union shall be recognized.
The operators offered to continue the
10 per cent. advance in wages granted
in 1900, and renewed in 1901. Further
than this they have thus far refused
to go-and the contest is dragging its
slow length along without any sign of
yielding on either side.
Meanwhile the people are beginning
to wonder what they will do for fuel,
if some adjustment of the matter is not
peatedly agreed to submit the points
at issue to arbitration; but this the
operators have stubbornly refused to
do. Meanwhile soft coal is being used
more and more in places where an
thracite was formerly used.
1t is said that many of the coal fields
involved in this contest are the prop
erty of the state of Pennsylvania, being
merely leased to the operators. There
are many who believe that if the
strike should continue the state should
take the mines and operate them for
the benefit of the people. This, how
ever, would involve the seizure of the
railroads which are also controlled by
the operators, for coal without means
for transporting it would be useless.
This would be beyond the power of the
state. especially beyond its own limits
even if it could legally abrogate its
leases.
1t is to be hoped that public senti-
ment may prove n powerful factor in
finally bringing about a fair and rea-
sonable adjustment of existing differ
ences.

A song that echoes sweet,

It's sing a song of harvest: The summer

The Appeal to Ignorance.

The appeal of the Wilkesoarre Pub
lie Alliance to the President of the
United States, asking him to bring an
end to the strike leaves two conclu-
sions to select from. eitfer of which
is lamentable; one that the Alliance is
ignorant of the rudimenrary princi-
pies of our form of government, the
other that it is influenced rot oy ig-
norance but by a desire to incite ig-
norance for political effect.
The Car of Russia would find ii a
difficult matter with all his autocraric
power to do such thing as the Al
lance asks of the President OF the
United States.
However wisely President Roosevelt
might exercise such arbitrary power,
as the Alliance invokes. it would he a
sorry day for the people OF this coun-
try when such authority should be
placed within the presidential preroga-
tive.
A prominent writer has stated that
the present strike is attributable to
the desperate purpose of the English
miners with their comparatively high
standard of living to resist the influx
of the foreign labor, the labo- content
to live in novels and work f,,r wages
on which the laborer with a decent
home to support would come TO
starvation. Be this as it may the APP
peal of the Alliance is leycled TO the
intelligence and adjusted to the
prejudices of this foreign labor fresh
from tyrannical rule at home and ig-
norant not only of our language hut
of our forms of government.
