No spe cific proposition has been made as tc the method of accomplishing this re sult. Mir. Churchill's salmon hatchery is on the mainland and therefore re mains in American territory.

Fourth Assistant Postmaster General Bristow is reported to have said that c. N. Crary would probably be reap pointed postmaster at Valdez, Alaska. Valdez has recently been advanced to the presidential class, and it becomes necessary therefore to appoint a post. master. Two or three other applicants had appeared for the place.
 The festive mosquito is sharpening up his bill and getting ready for next summers campaign. All who are going to Bullion creek should take along a little "radium," pound of which, the scientists tell us, could destroy the earth. A thimble full ought to be enough to destroy all the "pests" in Alaska, and this includes other than mosqui- toes.-Guide.
 John Carson, of Salem, Oregon, and a member of the Alaska Copper com pany, which was recently victorious in the big Valdez contest over the Copper River Copper properties, says that the Havemeyers will certainly furnish the money for the building of the Valdez, Copper River & Yukon railroad next year, aud will operate in conjunction with the railroad steamship line to Seattle.

 Though somewhat restricted to favor ed localities by nature, tin was known to the ancients in the time of Moses, The "Tin islands" mentioned by Hero dotus are now generally regarded as Cornwall, though some authorities place them off the Spanish coast. These mines of Cornwall are said to be the oldest known, the contemplating Phoeni- clans having first made them known to the world: later the Greeks and then the Romans prohted by the hidden treasure. MacAuley says: "In 1885 the tin of Cornwall, which had, more than 1000 years before, attracted the Tyrian sails beyond the pillars of Hercules, was still one of the most valuable sub- terranean productions of the island. The quantity annually extracted from the earth was found to be, some years later, 1,6oo, probably about third what it now is." Geologically the country is ancient, and the most profit able mines are near the functions of granite and clay-slate, which predomin. ates.-Ex.

A Washington dispatch of the 2Gth ut. says: The government is prepar- ing to establish a coaling station on Kiska island, at cost of s2000,O00.
 The mines of Nome yielded more than s6,O00,O00 this season and through increased facilities they are expected to double this production the coming year. It is estimated that the canals, fumes, dredges, etc., now under con- tract and construction in this district will cost not less than S2,0O0,000 and will be available for the next ten to twenty years.
 Fred Myers, manager of the Arctic Trading Company at Council City, load ed S20,OO0 in gold dust on cayuse re- gently and started for Nome, says a Ram part dispatch to the Dawson News.

He was finally caught after scattering consid- erable dust around the country.
 If the government wishes to protect deer, they should place a bounty on wolves, for wolves destroy more deer than all the hunters that could be turned loose" says Mir. Knyg.

 The review of mining in Alaska by such geologist and explorer as Mir. Alfred H. Brooks is sure to prove ser viceable to the progress in the Far North We are glad 10 publish map with the article, for, after all, good map is as necessary to the understand ing of the description of a wide area as it is to the comprehension of a mil itary campaign; many books and nu- merous excellent descriptive accounts of new regions are rendered obscure merely through the want of such an aid to understanding The photograph of railroad is also added, just to em- phasize the fact that this great indus trial adjunct is being extended over the tundra and into the wilderness of region only lately reclaimed to modern exploitation. Such railroads as Alaska has are doing very we'll, which is indicative of the large amount of ex- ploratory work under way and of the discrimination of the organizers of such enterprises. Already Arctic Amer ica is no longer considered refrig- orator, but home of thousands of the sturdy men and women of our race, and as the actual climate becomes known and proper preparations are made to endure it in comfort, there will be a continued increase in the permanent population of the region. Man can mitigate cold more readily than heat. A winter ill the snow is better than a summer in the jungle, and we shall be surprised therefore if, even with an equality of mineral re- sources, the mining regions bordering the Arctic circle do not progress faster than those which lie next to the equa- torial line.-N.

RETURN To TIE OLD PLAN

The Marietta Journal, which has its
home in the Blue Ridge circuit, where
bitter contest for the Judgeship has
just been concluded, is now of the
opinion that the elective plan is all
wrong and should be abolished.
The Journal is not alone in it is posi-
ton upon this question. The news
papers of the state are almost unit in
their condemnation of the present plan,
and it is safe to say that the news
papers reflect pretty accurately the
views of the people. The system is
wrong, and the sooner abolished the
better it will be for all interests.con-
eerned. The spectacle of a candidate
for the high Office of Judge being forced
to the level of the cheap demagogue
in order to secure election is both de-
morallzing and disgusting Newman

BUSINESS TOWN.

To be live, up-todate business town
and take advan ,age Of every good thing
that comes along, the merchants and
business men generally must cultivate
and have friendly feeling for one an
other, pertinently remarks the Florence
Herald. Because one man has differ
ent opinions politically and religiously
from you is no reason you should hold
yourself aloof from him. Remember
always that his friendship is worth
more to you than his opinion. In
friendship there is harmony and IN har-
mony there is strength. One man alone
cannot build up town, nor can half
its citizens do so when the other half
oppose them. 1t may be bitter pill
to pull in the same harness with YOUR
neighbor up the street, hut nine to one
If you pull with him awhile you will
lind out that he really is better man
than you thought for, and if you are
both pulling to accomplish the same
good end, in this way you will quicker
become acquainted with his good quail
tiles, like him better and soon overlook
his faults.

provides for,their election by the'people
and he will introduce it at the coming
summer session of the legislature.
Word has also been. received at the

pared a bill providing for the election
OF all railroad commissioners by the
people rather than have them appoint.
