OURS FIRST
Alaska Ills Highest Ameri-
 can Mountain.

The highest mountain on the North American continent was not discovered until about i've years ago. It has never been ascended. It is in Alaska and is called Mount Mckinley. Its height is 20, ,2O9 foet. So far as known, the only man who has ever set foot on it is AL fred H. Brooks, geologist of the geo. logical survey. Last summer he was a member Of an exploring party which camped about seven miles from the base of the mountain, and he went on and climbed up to the snow line. Mir. Brooks is anxious that the first ascen- sion of the mountain be made by an American, and has figured out several plans for party desirous of attempt ing it. It is estimated that the cost would be all the way from sl2,OOO to s2j,OOO
 Other high mountains on the conti- nent are Momnt Logan, l9,5OO feet; Orizaba, ls,2Oj feet; St. Elias, ls,1OO feet; Popocatapetl, l7,s76; Foraker, 1000; Mount Rainier, l4,444, and Pike's Peak, l4,ll7. School children win do we'll to paste this in their geog- raphies.

ENDS TODAY
Goddess of Liberty Contest
 Over Tonight.

Tonight at 9 o'clock the Goddess of Liberty contest will close. At that hour this evening the ballot boxes will be sealed and gathered up. The bal lots will be counted this evening and the result will be announced in the Daily Alaskan tomorrow morning.
 While there has not been so much comment over the matter as prevailed before the plan of counting the ballots each evening was abandoned, yet there has been much voting right along. Yesterday the voting was quite brisk, and today it will be even more so.
 While both Mrs. Kirmse and Miss Rappuzzi are being boomed for the honor of representing the fair goddess by their respective friends, neither has cinch on the victory. There gre ssv- eral other candidates who are formid- able rivals. The Misses Hattie and Jennie Lind, Miss Norma Ask, Miss Mamie Hanson and others, are receiv- ing votes, and an effort will be made in behalf of more than one of these before the close of the balloting today.
 Tickets may be secured at the vari- ious voting places and from John F. Dillon.
 No ticket will be counted for more than one ballot, unless it is so indicated on the ticket over the signature of MT, Dillon, who is the only person author ized to do that.

The agreement, which 1t Is now prsc- tically certain has been made between President Roosevelt and his friend' and the Ohio senator and his supporters, removes any question as to the renom- inatlon of Mir.

 It is claimed by those who have said that Senator Hanna would be a can dldate for the nomination, that the Ohio man had become convinced that Roosevelt will win the nomination in spite of anything that could be done to prevent it, and that he is making ar engagements to be in control of the par ty machinery for 1908.

the strength of President Roosevelt,
aside from his sincerity and capacity, Is
in the circumstance that he is not Ins
representative of a section but OF tne
whole people He is at home IN the
east and in his journeyings westward
he is travelling in his own country NO
part of the United States is an
''enemy's country for him. He has
points Of contact with the entire United
States and IS alien to no part of it in
sympathy or comprehension OF IT'S
needs When he errS, if he does err, II
is the error of the strong and honest
man, and he is as quick to admit error
when it is shown him as he is ardent
in the right course. The confidence OF
the people in him is greater now than
when he entered uDOn the discharge OF
the duties OF the presidency, for the rea-
son that he has been tried and found
equal to its manifold responsibilities.
His tour of the west is a subject ct
present interest. 1t is expected that the
addresses he win make will contain inn
portant disclosures of administration
policies enlightening to the nation, and
explanations Of things accomplished
and things hoped for in the conduct q
government in its relation to home
problems and those American Droblems
IN which other nations feel and have
concern. The expectation may be re-
allied. but more important from the
presidents standpoint is the opportunity
he viii have to consult the people. 1t is
less to tell the people what he thinks
of the things in which they are inter
ested that the president will mingle
with them through the west, than it is
to find out what they think through i'm
mediate conference and contact with
them and by observation of the effect of
his words upon them The president
has been in touch with representatives
OF the people for some months, but
when he leaves Washington today hs
will begin to get in touch again with
the people themselves and the inter-
change OF condolences will be of mutual
benefit The presidential tour there

president than to the people. The presi-
dent knows the people well and viii
read them thoroughly. When he returns
to Washington he will return refreshed
and with new inspirations. 1t is not an
appeal to the people that the president
viii make: he does not need to appeal
TO them. He does. undoubtedly. expect
to impart to them Information at first
hand, but it will be to have them re-
elorocate in kind AS their agent he
wants to form his own impressions as
to what they want and whether they
think they are getting it. It is a good
thing for president and people to get
together in this way as often as the
business OF the government will Der-

PAssING oF TEE FoREsTs.

The passing of the gigantic forests
of North America has aroused much
discussion and no end of plans for their
perpetuaton have been suggested.
President Roosevelt recognizes the i'm
portance of the forestry movement and
in an address delivered before the So
ciety of American Foresters at Wash
ington last week he said:
And now, first and foremost, you can
never afford to forget for one moment
what is the object of our forest policy.
That object is not to preserve the for
ests because they are beautiful. though
that is good in itself; nor because they
are refugees for the wild creatures of the
wilderness, though that, too, is good in
itself; but the primary object of our
forest policy, as of the land policy of
the United States. is the making of
prosperous homes. 1t is part of the
traditional policy of home making OF
our country. Every other consideration
comes as secondary. The whole effort
of the government in dealing with the
forests must be directed to this end,
keeping in view the fact that it is not
only necessary to start the homes as
prosperous, but to keep them so. That
is why the forests have got to be kept.
You can start a prosperous home by
destroying the forests. but you cannot
keep it prosperous that way.
And you are going to be able to
make that policy permanently the
policy of the country only in so far as
you are able to make the people at
large. and, above all. the people con-
cretely interested in the results in the
different localities. appreciative of what
it means. Impress upon them the full
recognition of the value of it's policy,
and make them earnest and Jealous ad-
herents Of it. Keep in mind the fact
that in a government such as ours, it
is out of the question to impose a policy
like this from without. The policy, as
a permanent policy. can come only from
the intelligent conviction of the people
themselves that it is wise and useful.
nay. Indispensable We shall decide. in
the long run whether or not we are to
preserve or destroy the forests Of the
Rocky mountains accordingly as we are
or are not able to make the people Of
the mountain states hearty believers IN
the policy of forest preservation.
That is the only way in which this
policy can be made permanent sue
cess You must convince the people Of
the truth-and it is the truth-that the
success Of home makers depends in the
long run ucon the wisdom with which
the nation takes care Of its forests.
That seems a strong statement, but it
is none too strong.
You yourselves have got to keep this
practical object before your mind: to
remember that a forest which contrib
