New Brunswick, n. j., Feb. 1.-The
Rev. Linn e. Wheeler of the First Bap-
fist Church of this city, who recently
returned from a trip to Egypt and Pal
estine, tells of a time during that jour
ney when his sporting proclivities got
the better of him.
1t happened in Egypt where the rev.
erend gentleman and three companions
were viewing the Sphinx. Each was
mounted on a camel, and one of the
party, an old campaigner. suggested a
race. The clergyman demurred at first,
But finally caught the fever and start
ed off. The course was straightway,
from the Sphinx to the nearest pyramid.

More than bO per cent Oi the worlds pack of salmon was pro- duced in Alaska last year. The first official returns of the 1902 pack will soon be made public. H. F.. Kutchin, the treasury special agent in charge of the Alaska fisheries, has by this time forward ed the report to the secretary of the treasury. The worlds pack last year amounted to 4,31 $50 cases, a decrease over 1901 of 731 ,152 cases.
 The total Alaska pack was 2,63l ,32O cases, an increase of 554, ,569 cases, or B per cent over the year before. The Alaska pack exceeds that of all other regions by 949,G ,G09 eases, and is equivalent to 125,3OS,36O pounds of prepared food. A case of salmon contains forty-eight cans.
 There are now sixty-four can nerics in Alaska and eighteen salteries. This is gain of nine canneries and twelve salteries since 1901. The canneries last year were operated by forty-four cor porations, tirms or individuals. The total capitalization of the in- dustry was $25, 5,799, 300, the valua- tion of the plants was $6, ,406,75
 The other big figures connected with the Alaska salmon industry in 1862 are; Fetal market value of pack, $S,667 ,673, increase, $l, l,741,- SO6; total tax payable to the gov ernment, lO5,SO3.13; number of hands employed, 1892, of whom 7,567 were whites, 5,376 Chinese and 2,675 natives: total wages paid, $4 ,O6O, ,63O; whole number of salmon taken, 36,265,O56; total number of vessels employed. 193, of which 135 were steamers and 6S sailing vessels.
 The attempt of few disgruntled persons, who probably have not re- ceived patents to their land as soon as they desi el, to bes nirch tho c lar- acter of Surveyor-General Wm. l.. Distin will not succeed. General Distin is one of the most accommo- dating, careful and faithful officials in Alaska. He has shown rare, good judgment and ability in the conduct of his office, and it is a model of systematic business meth- ods. He is just as courteous, pleas ant and accommodating to the poor prospector or Siwash who may go into his office for advice or inform ation as he is to the largest property holder. Probably he gave someone too much cheap advice for which they were not grateful. It is impossible to please some people.
 The secretary of the treasury has sent strong report to the house favoring the pending bill to move the customs headquarters of the district of Alaska from Sitka to Juneau. This proposed action is in accordance with recommenda- tion made by Collector Jarvis, who, Tn recent report, said the present office is in an incOnvenient loca- tlon. The proposition to remove the customs headquarters from Sitka has revived the talk about the removal of the capital. Pro- vision was made for this in the code law of 1900, to take effect as soon as suitable quarters could be provided in Juneau, but Gov. Brady is known to be hostile to the plan, and no step has been taken to carry out the provisions cf tue law.

WRITING IN Golfers Weekly j. D.
w Whelpley gives an accurate idea
OF the amount of public land that is
being annually taken away from the
people by speculative holders under
the desert land act. This act makes
possible the acquisition Of immense
tracts which are held by individuals
and corporations for purposes Of spec
uLation thus depriying the bona nde
settler of his homestead rights.
Mr.. Whelpley says that out Of the
thousands Of desert land entries that
have been made during the last ten
years. the land office has investigated
only 472. OF that number 297 were
found % De fraudulent and were cam
celed. When it is remembered thar
no filings are looked into except those
in which special contests are filed OF
special information furnished the de-
partment, it is possible to get a reaI-
izing idea of the situation.
I'm 1900" says Mr. Whelpley. "the
government OF the United States deed
ed away over thirteen and q half mill
lion acres OF land; I'm 1901 these dis
posals reached a total of 100000
acres. a figure which startled the coun-
try In its enormous proportions. In
1902, however. there was a gain Of A.
100000 acres. and the disposuls made
by the government reached the enor-
nous aggregate OF nearly 2O,0OOOOO
acres. Al the rate which has pre-
vailed during the first six months OF
the fiscal year Of 1908, the disDosals
viii probably amount 10 at least 20
100000 acres, or fully as much as was
allenated al any time during the great
rush of emigration to the west.
"The population of the west is not
Increasing proportionately with this
present rate of land disposal In fact
in states where millions of acres have
been decided away TO individuals, there
has been an actual decrease Of the as
rICulturdI population. All this simply
means that under the homestead law
as 10 stands today. under the desert
land act. a measure born in selhshncs5
and chicanery, and under the timber
and stone act. the people Of the United
States are being robbed of their landed
estate"
The figures are indeed alarming. IL
is probable that the prospect for gov
eminent irrigation has brought about
the recent heavy increase. In any
event the law under which so much of
the peoples land is taken away from
them cannot be repealed too quickly.
The irrigation act provides that when
a reservoir or canal project is decided
upon, the land contiguous to il shall
be withdrawn from public entry for
the time being.
AT the rate at which the land is dis
appearing. though. it viii not be so
very long before there win be no land
TO withdraw unless a careful inves-
ugation of the entries already made
should develop the fact that they are |
nearly all fraudulent
