this case coming from a storage bat
terry. This vehicle is designed mostly
for passenger traffic, but can also be
utilized to deliver baggage and other
freight, such as packages from depart
ment stores to places remote from the
tracks Of the trolley system. The cleo
trio power in the storage battery which
is used when the vehicle is Off the troll

again as soon as the vehicle returns
to the tracks. The idea of the in
ventor is to provide series Of vehicles
which can operate in addition to the
regular trolleys, and, although nor

the trolley cars and deriving their mo-
tive power from the same supply sys-
tenn, can be capable Of more rapid
progress. This peculiar vehicle could
be devoted to the use Of passengers
paying a higher rate than that re-
quired for the ordinary trolley service.

ALASKA WAGON ROADS.
House Passes Senate Eill, Which
Will Give at Least $4,000
Year.
a Year..

Washington, Jan. 10.-Wagon road
construction on large scale in Alaska
is assured. The house has passed the
dill, which was put through the senate
at the last session, providing for "the
construction and maintenance Of wag-
on roads, the esta blishment and main
tenance of schools and the care and
support of insane persons in the dis
trict of Alaska
The important feature is the provi-
sion for roads. The bill was drawn
by Senator Nelson last winter, and af-
ter it passed the senate was sent to the
house and referred to the committee on
territories. The committee made ia
vorab!e report, with unimportant
amendments. Representative Cushman
called the bill up yesterday and it was
passed, after briefest discussion.
The president il in hearty sympathy
with the objects of the bill and will
sign it within few days. The bill
will make available at least $4,000
year for the construction Of roads
alone The money for road building is
w 10 ulSbuASCu OAACCtAOA VI a
commission especially appointed for
the purpose, and the war department
will have supervision.
The road commission will have large
powers. The bill says the commi ssion
shall have "the power on their own
motion or upon petition to locate, lay
out, construct and maintain wagon
roads and pack trails wherever they,
in their judgment, may deem the same
to be advisable or necessary.
This means road building on a con-
siderable scale in Alaska, for the funds
available for the purpose will be re-
plenished each year, receiving 20 per
cent of all license moneys collected in
the territory outside Of incorporated
towns.

A HUNTER WITH A HEART.
,~@41%N@@S&44@@@


Polar oxen are not very difficult to
shoot, but they are highly valued game
by the arctic explorer. In pursuing
a small herd, Otto Sverdrup, author OF
New Land. Four Years in the Arctic
Regions" noticed the following evil
dence Of maternal affection IN COW
for its calf:
As the herd started noticed that
one Of them had newly born calf.
The herd went up steep snow drift,
eight or ten feet in height, and the
calf made a brave attempt to follow,
but when It had almost reached the
top, lost its footing and rolled down to
the bottom again. 1t fell so badly and
helplessly that thought 1t was killed,
but to my surprise it rose to Its feet
and began to scramble up once more.
Its second attempt to scale the drift
was no more successful than the first,
and again 1t came rolling down. 1t
cried piteously. l felt so sorry for 1t
that was just starting to help 1t up
the drift when suddenly 1t occurred to
me that the old COW might misinter-
pref my motives, and what then? l
might risk battle with her, and 1t
would be a pity to have to shoot her
in self-defense. l decided to remain
where l was, and await the turn of
events.
At last the mother heard the cries OF

LIVING is HIGHER
LABOR COMMISSIONER BLACknAN'S
ANNUAL REPORT.
Weges Have Increased Some in
This State, but Increased Cost
OF Living Has More Than Offset
ThiS-Child Labor Laws Should
Be Extended, He Thinks.

Olympia, Jan. 9.-The biennial re.
port of the state labor commissioner,
William Blackman, has been COM
pleted and contains lengthy state.
ment of the work accomplished by the
labor bureau during the year, and
gives detailed history of the more i'm
portant strikes that occurred through
out the state during the bienial period.
Mr.. Blackman voices hearty con-
currence with the recommendation of
President Roosevelt that public safety
demands the enactment of legislation
limiting the hours of labor of railway
employees in train service He recon.
mends that the state enact legislation
along that line.
The commissioner also believes that
the child labor law should be made
broader, so that it will govern the en-
ployment Of children by telegraph, tel
ephone and messenger companies. He
again recommends the enactment of a
law regulating employment bureaus,
and also law requiring employers to
pay their employees in cash instead of
in time or bank checks, which are oft
ell subject to discount, the law also re.
quiring that payment be made forth
with upon the discharge Of an e;nploye
or when the latter sees fit to cease
work himself.
Factory Inspection Law.
The factory inspection law, which
compels mills and factories to safe
guard dangerous machinery and shaft
ing, is heartily approved by the labor
commissioner. This is the act that
the companies that insure mill owners
suits claim has driven them out of bus
ness in this state. Mr.. Blackman says
there should be a larger appropriation
to enable the commissioner to employ
deputies to properly enforce the act.
Mr.. Blackman upholds the working
of the labor arbitration law.
Cost of Living Higher.
The average increase in the cost of
board, amounting to ~ cents per week =,
is easily accounted for by the increase
in prices of staple foods.
The rate of wages has increased an
average Of 1925 cents per day, but
whether this increase equals the in
creasedc ost OF living is an open ques-
ton, according to the labor commits
sioner. A majority of the reports to
the labor bureau claim that it does not
equal SO per cent Of the increased cost
of living.
1t is noted by the commissioner that
the number who accumulate savings is
much reduced, which most Of those re-
porting state is due to increased cos tot
living. Those who do save, however,
have been enabled to increase their
yearly savings on an average of $500.
On the other hand, again, the average
savings Of the whole canvass is much
reduced, indicating, to the commls-
sioner's mind, that those who save are
living more economically ION account
Of higher prices"

BLOW TO SCALPERS.
Judge Bell uphOldS Validity of Sc.
attic Ordinance.


attic Ordinance.
Seattle, Jan. SIN an oral opinion
handed down yesterday afternoon,
Judge Bell sustained the validity of
the ordinance passed some time ago by
the city council imposing tax on per-
SONS enaged in the ticket scalping bus
mess and giving the police supervisory
control over all persons engaged in
such business. He also sustained the
demurrer of the city to the temporary
restraining order secured by A. O. OF.
finger when the ordinance became op-
erative.
BY the provisions of the ordinance
which was passed some months ago
persons engaged in the ticket broker
age business are required to pay a
monthly license of $50 into the city
treasury and in addition thereto must
aso file daily with the chief Of police a
complete record Of their transactions.
Immediately after the ordinance be-
came operative 4. o. Ottinger applied
for a temporary restraining order,
which was granted. Complaint was
also made that it was class legislation
and in the interest of the several rail
way lines that run into the city of Sc
attic. 1t was also contended that the
city has assumed state function, for
the reason that the legislature alone
had the right to pass laws governing
the sale of transportation. To this
complaint the city demurred on the
usual grounds, and at the same time
filed a motion to dismiss the temporary
restraining order.
The attorneys for Ottinger, who is
one of the largest ticket brokers on the
Pacific coast, will appeal the case to
the supreme court.

more uses for electricity and to i'm

automobile, although the principles Of
both are utilized. 1t is so constructed
and the operating parts are so ar
ranged that it will run on the regular
trolley tracks, receiving the propelling

it becomes necessary or desirable to
