Cateila oil Seer ages.

NIT. Humphrey White died here this week of d wasting disease. He had bern s.cS for some time in the states and came to Alaska io regain his health. He leaves two brothers, Lawrence and Thomas, the latter an old-iimer here, who have the sympathy of ,he entire community.
 The Aberne hy oil well which was started some time ago is well under way and is making excellent progress.
 The Alaska Petroleum and Coal Syndicate have abandoned the we'll they were drilling having sunk to the depth of 1900 feet. At that depth oil was not struck. The drilling plant will be moved mile to the west of the old site.
 Ex-Gov. Shakely is in town for a few days, looking UP the country for some Pittsburg people. He says that from what he has seen of it he thinks it will be a good country, and is undoubtedly rich in oil and coal deposits.
 Q. l.. Willoughby has arrived back in town for q short stay. He is looking after his oil property.
 Chas. Davis, son of Clarke Davis, vice-presidcnt and manager of the Alaska Petroleum and Coal Syndi- cate came up on the Bertha for a few weeks.
 The present outlook for the peo- pie who have either lands or stocks in oil or coal lands here is very bright It seems to be no trouble to those who are willing to get rid of their stock or land. The mere mention of this district in the vari- ous western states has a tendency to q quick sale and at good prices
 Jack Cummings, of the firm oi Thompson X Cummings, arrived back from a short trip to the states
 A new saloon will soon be in on.ration hero uuder tho firm nam, of LeClare X Smith. Mir. Smitl has gone to purchase the stock A building is now in course of cree tion for them.

 J. T. Moore has moved into one of the Temple buildings at Kayak, and will no longer run a restaurant He will hereafter keep full line of general merchandise and outfit ting supplies. Those who come here to hunt for oil or gold will find that they can get anything neces- stry at reasonable prices.
 The steamer Albion arrived in port some days ago with the repre- sentatives of the Southern Pacific railroad and Mackenzie & Mann. They brought with them a full rig ged drilling plant, and will test the ground wherever they think best. Much anxiety is felt by the people here as to their movements. Ac- companying them were Miss John- ston, daughter of the president of the A. D. Co.,, and Mrs. Treadwoll.
 People coming to this town and wishing to stay a day or two will find the best of everything at Bar rett's boarding house.

THE HOUSE FORECAST.
Seems to BE Nothing Ahead for
the Body to Consider.

Washington, Nov. 22.-The
house will meet Tuesday. Hav-
ing disposed of the Cuban bill it
has no business before it, and un-
less an agreement is effected by
which the called session is to be
brought TO an early close, an ad-
journment will probably be taken
until Friday and then an adjourn
ment until Monday or Tuesday.
1t is suggested that it is extremity
doubtful if there will be a quorum
Tuesday, and, if the point of no
quorum should be raised, it would
DE impossible to act on concur
rent resolution providing for an
adjournment, even should one be
brought over from the senate
Some Of the house leaders have
expressed themselves in oposition
to an adjournment before the Gu
ban bill shall have been disposed
ot, but what might be the result
OF a conference between the lead
ers Of the senate and house on
Tins proposition remains to be
seen. 1t is possible that the
speaker may be ready to announce
the committee assignments so that
at the opening of the regular ses-
sion next month the house can
proceed to business. Mem 0ers
of both sides of the house are
mindful of the conventions which
are TO be held next year and the
desire will be general to rush the
work as fast as possible in order
that the regular session may be
brought to close as early as pos
sible.

The Deadly Cost of the Philip
pines.

The nation does all that can be
done for its dead who meet their
end in the distance islands of the
Pacific. They are buried in the
soil they loved and their friends
are given the opportunity of pay
ing the last tributes of respect to
their memories. But why need
they have died? Has the NOR
tallty OF the Philippines not been
totally unnecessary I? The war
has been over for years, yet the
the deaths go on. Disease has
succeeded sword and firearms and
insanity stalks hand in hand with
death. Such is the cost. What
Is the gain? Nothing that can
recompence the nation for the
loss Of the thousands of lives that
have been sacrificed TO the thirst
for conquest. We paid twenty
million dollars for islands
that we do not want and that SO
far have failed to even pay inter.
est on the investment and, in ad-
dition, have cost us millions more
and will cost us millions still.
Taken altogether this Philippines
situation is the most regretable
feature of American history
