TAKING UP ALASKA LANDS
Instructions Issued With the Approval
of the Interior Department

The commissioner of the general land Of
flee, with the approval of the Secretary of
the Interior, has issued instructions for
the taking up of public land in Alaska
under the Congressional act Of March 3
last. These instructions call attention to
the fact that no locations of indemnity,
deficiency, or lieu land selections pertain
ing to any land grant or scrip or warrants,
may be located in Alaska; that the act Of
May IA. 1898. is amended so as to prohibit
any entry of more than 160 rods along the
shore of any navigable water and to allow
no homestead entry of more than $50
acres The instructions hold that every
qualified settler. now located on unsurveyed
lands in Alaska, shall, within ninety days,
or prior to the Intervention of an adverse
claim, file record of his claim for location
in the recording district where the land is
located. and that every person who shall
hereafter settle. shall file such record with
in ninety days from the date of settlement,
or prior to the adverse claim.
If the land is not surveyed within i've
years or. in case the settler desires to COM
mute in fourteen months. he may secure at
his own expense, survey made by the
by the surveyor general. His survey must
cover his entire claim, but he can only
complete title by commutation to 160 acres,
the entry remaining intact for completion
as to the remainder, as II such commute
ton had not been made.
Entrymen committing are required to pay
$1.25 an acre for the land, and the same
fees and commissions as in final home
steads.

FOOD AND POPULATION.
Their Relations Treated by James b.
Blodgett.

I'm the economy of the worlds activi-
ties,"- says James H. Blodgett of the d.
vision of statistics of the Department Of
Agriculture. in a pamphlet on the relation
of the population and food products Of the
United States. some persons produce food,
others produce manufactured articles and
some are the carriers to make the neces-
sary exchanges. National prosperity and
individual comfort depend upon the due
development of varied Industries
In the preparation of his pamphlet Mr..
Blodgett has carefully consulted the re-
turns made by the last census and has
drawn his deductions therefrom. Accord
ing to Mr.. Blodgetts observations and con-
illusions the principal portion of that part
of America between Canada and Mexico,
now occupied by the United States has
been pre-eminent almost from Initial set
Element for production Of food, adequate
not only for local needs but with surplus
for those developing products other than
food. For time nearly all the people
might be considered as food producers, no
one seeming to be properly equipped with

and potato patches. With the development

of the country the number busy exclusive
ly in other than food-producing pursuits
has increased. LAUNDERING and mining en-
terprises have been developed in localities
to which food must be transported. and
the carriers must also be fed.
The making of utensils. machinery. cloth
ing. and all manner of articles of con-
venience and desirability has continually
increased. AS in some sense allies of car
rterS In the exchange of products the trad
ers of all degrees have become more and
more completely occupied in service that
does not produce food This demand for
transportation exchange and manufacture
with mining. especially of fuel, has built
up great bodies of food consumers even in
the very midst of fertile lands, who are
dependent entirely for their daily bread
upon the grain. the vegetables and the ami
mails produced by others.
With an increasing density of popula ton
the older states have an increasing propor-
ton OF non-producers of food who are to be
fed. Relatively speaking, the consumers
of food have increased faster than the
producers of food.
This presentation Of the food resources
of the United States is closely limited to
the illustration of the relation of population
to staples OF food produced in such quanti-
ty as to attract the attention of the census
enumerator, directed by laws passed under
variable conditions Of urgency 1t indi-

gestion as to the changes in the surplus

whitaker WRIGHT CASE.
It Will Soon Come Before the Supreme
Court

The case of Whitaker Wright, the ex-
tensive English operator recently arrested
in New York and now in Ludlow street
Jail under an order of extradition on the
charge Of having committed fraud while
engaged as a director of an English cor
poration, soon will receive the attention of
the United States Supreme Court. Notice
has been received by the clerk of that court
that an appeal had been taken to the court
from the refusal Of the federal circuit
court sitting in New York city to admit
Wright to bail or to issue writ of habeas
corpus in his case. Mr.. Louis Marshall
Wright's attorney. Monday next will move
to advance the hearing Of the case. In a
statement prepared to accompany the mo-
ton Mr.. Marshall says:
THE appellant Is still in custody. No
hearing on the merits Of the charge made
against him has as yet taken place. The
charges made against the appellant are Of
such a nature as to involve an elaborate
and intricate investigation into books Of
account. and in all likelihood long time
will elapse before such hearing is COM
pleted.- In the meantime, unless the ap-

disc as does the united kingdom. In a
large proportion of articles, or classes of
articles. imported into Canada the United
States supplies a larger share than does
the united kingdom. In a list of thirty-six
principal importations into Canada, twenty
six show larger importations from the
United States than from the united king
dom, and ten show larger importations
from the united kingdom than from the
United States
The ten articles in which the united king
dom supplies larger share of the Cana
dian imports than does the United States
are: Cotton manufactures, fax and hemp
manufactures, silk manufactures, wool
manufactures, tin and manufactures there
of, earthen and chinaware, spirits and
wines, tea, wool and fancy articles
OF the articles of which the United States
furnishes larger supply than does the
united kingdom the principal ones are
manufactures of iron and steel, wood and
Its manufactures, coal and coke. bread
stuffs, chemicals. fruits. provisions, live
animals, tobacco and its manufactures,
paper and it's manufactures and electrical
apparatus.

EXPORTS TO CANADA.
American Products More Popular Than
British

Canadian import figures indicate that the
manufactures and. merchandise of the
United States are popular with the people
of Canada. The statistical statement OF
Canadian commerce, just received by the
treasury bureau of statistics. covering the
commerce Of the seven months ending with
January. 1908, shows that Canada imported
from the United States during that time
$67 600 worth of merchandise, against
$50, 100000 worth from the united kingdom
and $21 100000 worth from all other parts
of the world. In other words, the United
States supplied SO per cent of the imports
of Canada, the seven months ending with
January last, the united kingdom sup
piled q per cent and the remaining portions
of the world II per cent.
This large importation from the United
States by Canada is especially interesting.
in view of the fact that the Canadian tarin
permits the introduction of products from
the united kingdom on payment of only
two-thirds the duty which goods from other
parts of the world, including the United
States, must pay. This reduction in tarin
on goods from the united kingdom, as
against goods from other parts Of the
world, was begun some four years ago, ana
the reduction on British goods Increased
until it reached 88 1-3 per cent. Yet in
spite of this fact the United States sup
plies to Canada twice AZ much merchan-

Benjamin B. Mccarthy; of Thorpe,

with disaster when he went out to see
the town yesterday. He wound up at

terday and about an hour later PATROL
fnan Wagner was notified of his condi-
ton and he was sent to the station.
A report was circulated to the effect
that Mccarthy had jumped from the
high bridge, and considerable excite

Mccarthy was led away by the officer.
Though 1t was said that he had jumped
from the bridge, the man was entirely
uninjured except for few scratches
and bruises received from falling to
the ground from the ledge Of one of
the piers Of the bridge which he had
attempted to climb.
Mccarthy was at a loss to know what
had become of his coat and his money.

BOYS TORTURE POOR
bessie TO DEATH
John NorIand and Gus Olson
Stick Firebrands Down a
Cows Throat.

The burning of negroes at the stake
has not been without its effect on the
juvenile element in the population of
Minneapolis. Recent lynchings and
barbecues have been the topic of con-
versation, and accounts in the news
papers have been read by boys, whose
aginations have been carried away
by fervid descriptions.
John Norland and Gus Olson, of
Minneapolis, were arrested yesterday
for torturing a COW to death with hot
cinders and firebrands Detectives Sin
clair and Sullivan made the arrests.
Norland, after he was locked up, ad-
mitted that he was concerned in the
killing of the COW, but declared that he
had not committed the worst of the
atrocities perpetrated on the occasion.
The cow was tethered in a South side
lot when the lads say. her and decided
to emulate Delaware mob in their
treatment of poor bessie. Accordingly
they stuck frebrands down the throat
of the cow and otherwise SO maltreated
her that she died as a result
The boys will have a hearing in the
police court tomorrow and the HUI

ton.

BUILDING LINE NOT
A PRACTICABLE PLAN
Corporation Attorney Michael Thinks
It Too Complicated.


The work and expense attendant
upon the establishment cof a building
line, authority for which was granted
cities by the last legislature, is not
likely to- be favorite with property
owners, according to Corporation At
torney Michael. ~ 80
It's the worst mixed up affair I ever
saw said Mr.. Michael yesterday.
Here Marshall avenue property own
ers want a thirty foot building line es-
tablished, but I venture, to say that
they will not want it when they find
out what they have to do.
Instead of letting the board of pub
lie works do the work the law provides
for five appraisers, and they must fix
the benefits and damages to be paid.
After that is done there are a lot of
other formalities, so that when the
whole thing is completed the property
owner will be so Disguised that he will
not want to take part in another"
The law makes many requirements.
and because of its. complex character
is not likely to have many calls. AS
sessments are to be levied, and in some
cases they would be quite high.

There are any number of candidates
for the job, but the union want their
men recognized, and delegations from
the Trades and Labor assembly have
made frequent visits to the city hall In
behalf of such.
Patrick Conroy is being doomed by
the local union for the place, and in the
event that he is not acceptable, the
union has several other candidates

PARK SITES WILL
NEVER BE CHEAPER
supt. Smith Says City Should Buy
Now.

Timer parks is the one solution of
the playground question that this city
will have to come to sooner or later,
said Supt. Smith, of the city schools,
to The Globe yesterday. "And
the sooner that plan is adopted the less
it will cost to acquire the necessary
land Several years ago. when the
playground agitation was being dis
cussed, wrote to the park board, urg-
ing that land for park purposes in the
inside portions of the city could be
obtained them very cheaply in COM
parison with former prices of city real
estate. and that in all probability the
prices would never be any less than
at that time. Since then all real es-
tate in the city has increased in value.
and there is reasonable assurance that
1t will continue to advance. One of the
great beauties and great advantages or
Paris is it's inner parks, and a num-
Der of the principal cities of this coun-
try have had the wisdom to follow that
example. This city will have to come
to it in time, and better now than when
1t is found to be absolutely neces-
sity and city property is of immense
value"
