THE CAUSE OF BUS/NESS
 DEPRESSION.

"The Fairbanks Manufacturing and Trading Company has made full assignment of all their property for the benefit of their creditors, to c. A. Jeffery. It is rumOred that there are other big firms unable to meet their obligations. and that se- rious developments may be ex- pected in the next few days. The unexpected business depression has done much to bring about this state of affairs. '-Chena Times, June 30.
 The Fairbanks News makes no concealment of the unsatisfactory state of business, and says tons of produce TOW lie idle because of high freight rates to the creeks. As remedy, the paper very prop erly urges haste i'll the construction of roads.
 But this unexpected business depression, which is not confined to the Panama country or to any other section of Alaska, is not wholly attributable to high freight rates. A year ago. it is said, many staples could be bought at Nome at Seattle prices. because the demand did no, come up to expectations and dealers had to stimulate consump- tion by selling at a loss. People are simply living on less and con6mng themselves to the common ueccssa- ries of life. Prospec,oFs and miners are looking out for rainy day.
 Two years have bruugh, a great change in this respect. Business concerns themselves instituted the new order of things. which they said would be better tor alI con. esSued. They adopted a cash sys-

Test Cases Decided.

A mineral claim does not take prior right over a homestead, if the homestead entry was filed first and in good faith.
 No title can be given to gravel bars in navigabl streams.

Antelope County Farmer Recovering
from Injuries Received.
NORFOLK Neb., July 29-(Special.)-
It is reported that Henry Bertram of Craw-
ford township, Antelope county, has for
weeks been resting between life and death
because his wife wanted a new hat for
the Fourth of July.
Bertram tried TO persuade his better half
that the new bonnet was extravaganza,
and he used the handle OF a pitchfork to
enforce his argument. Swinging the heavy
handle down upon the crown Of her head,
Mrs. Bertram was finally felled to the
floor Then the husband tried to bring
her back to life by the fresh air method.
He stopped down to haul her out doors
by the hair of her head. While in this
position he loosened the grasp on the fork
handle and his 14-year-old son picked 1t up.
With one back-handed stroke the son
laid out his father. He took the mat on
the very first blow and failed to revive
before the count. He failed too to re-
cover long after the victim of his own at
tack had come to life. She then took a
turn and belabored her loving spouse I'M
| mercifully.
A broken arm, a seriously injured hir

wore a very black eye for four days. Fol

mental service for the cars government in
their greedy and foolish policy.
Socialists and Peace.
Perhaps the most interesting passage in
the undelivered speech of NJ. Jaures on
peace and socialism is as follow:
What deeply wounded French feeling,
what revolted all Fr~nchmen, from the So
cialists to the conservatives, was the pre-
tension asserted by certain newspaper and
certain professors to make France o kind
of hostage If a conflict occurred between
Germany and England. What would be in
tolerable is that our country should be ex-
pected TO break with England and TO de-
nounce the pact of good harmony which it
had concluded with her. We no more want
by rupture with England than we want
an agreement with England which would
be directed against Germany. II appears to
us possible TO live in concord with both
countries in a spirit OF moderation and
equity. If directly or indirectly reputation
of the Franco-Russian friendship were eX-
pected of us, we should be uncompromis.
dragging us In spite of ourselves into an
attitude OF hostility toward England we
should resist to the last breath. For in the
first place a nation which Is not free Ia
extend its friendship to them II likes is a
nation enslaved and, for such a nation as
for the individual serf, life is not worth
living. Secondly, the understanding be.
tween France and England is a victory
of civilization and a guarantee OF peace
The fact that these people, too long divided
should have managed to dissipate their mis-
understanding and overcome their reciprocal
distrust is an effort of prudence and OF
reason and a salutary example.
