5 PER CENT. INCREASE
Big Insurance Companies Increase
Premiums on Non.Particlpatins
Policies.
(By Publishers Press

NEW YORK, April 2G.-Commenc.
ing April 10, all of the big life in.
surance companies Increased the pre-.
mlums on non-participating, or
straight life, policies about 5 per
cent. This action coming i'll the
heat Of the battle IN the Equitable
company, caused considerable discus.
sion among the agents and the holders
of policies and many suesses were
made as to Its cause When asked
about the matter today, Darbin B.
Kingsley, Vice president of the New
York Life Insurance Company said:
For a year or more this company
has considered the matter of raising
the premiums on non.pnrticipating
policies. This was because our actu
aries have reported that the old pre-
miums were inadequate because o
the fall Of interest.
"Fhe EQuitable's scandal has hat
nothing TO do with the advance ii
rates. 1t was merely a move mad
necessary by present conditions"

It is getting well along in the season to hope for the improvement of the Dry Straits this year, But all the towns in Southeastern AL aska, as well as all outside ship pers should bend their energies to ward getting the matter before con- gress at its next session. An i'm provement that would give good, safe channel for all hours, day or night; that will shorten the dis, tance an hours run for the swift est vessels; that would save to the government millions of dollars in the construction and maintaining. must surely be made sooner or lat CT, and it seems to us the soon, T the better.

In senator Piles, of Washington, It is said that Alaska has warm tfiertI' We are pleased to know it. Alaska has had many friends, but when it came to the pinch they generally have important business from constituents" to demand their attention. That is the reason the SENTINEL has clamored for a dele gaze in congress clothed with au- thority from Ri organized territory in Alaska. In other words we want to become the constituents of some good, live, energetic man on the floors of congress to champion our rights. Any section of the country whose value of exports is nearly $9,000,000 in excess of its imports is entitled to this. Never theless, if Senator Piles will give his aid in bringing about this con- dition, the greater portion of Alas kans will take off their hats to him and also to any others who will join him in a move of emancipa- tion of 35,000 Alaskans.

Each retail liquor applicant from towns where there is municipal government, must circulate their own petition and present it to the clerk of the federal court with q majority of the white citizens re- siding within two miles of their place of business signed. This places each and every retail liquor dealer upon his own bottom and therefore any objectionable place will have to confront an outraged community before they will be granted license The notices to this effect are now in the hands of the local dealers and several lists will be circulated this week.-Ju- neau Dispatch.

To attempt to run a live town without nucleus about which the people can concen- trate their energies, is a good deal like building a wagon wheel with out a hub NVrangell people ob- served this fact some time ago, or ganized a Chamber, and ever since has been pulling ahead nicely Keep begging away at lem, boys; you know perseverance and the necessary condiments will work wonders.

It looks at times as if republi- Sans are too gullible to retain par ty organization. Down at Port land, Oregon, a town with a repub- lican majority of 5000, Harry Lane, democrat, was elected over George H. Williams, republican, by 1000 plurality. And it was that town of republican moralists that is responsible for a democratic gov ernor in state that is republican by at least 10000. With the cleo tion of Lane as mayor, it gives the democrats the two principal offices and virtually control of the state. This damphoolishness naturally makes fellow who has assisted in making the state republican feel like kicking himself and every oth CT republican. With the Cham berlains, the Lanes, the Heney's and Mugwumps, Oregon is going hopelessly into the democratic Camp.

 Now that the tourist season is here and the first load of eastern sichtseers will make a tour of south eastern Alaska next week, says the Record Miner of the 7th inst, it is to be hoped that the steamers car rying tourists this year will be able to run nearer Muir glacier than the past two seasons. Muir glacier is one of the principal points of greatest favor with the tourist, and this year, on account of the Lewis and Clark fair, the tourist travel will probably exceed that of the past two years, and all will want to see and photograph that great mass of snow and ice. For many years the boats loaded with excur- sionists were run directly up to the glacier, and those that were inclin- ed to do so were permitted to land and make photographs and other observations of the ice field. Enor- nous pieces of ice would fall from the front of the glacier and drop into the front of the bay. Of more recent years, however, the great ice factory has been so active that it has been impossible for boats to get within several miles of the glacier, and this feature of the trip had to be abandoned. c. L. Andrews, for. merly deputy collector of customs at Skagway, but now of Eagle, in company with W. H. Case, made trip last year to the glacier in an open boat, and he announces that the glacier has lost its size and grandeur, and is receding at a rap i'd rate The face has moved back about three miles in the past four years, and in that time the glacier has lost about ten sqare miles in area. This rapid recession is said to have dated from the fall of 1889, when the vicinity was visited by an earthquake. Mr, Andrews is of the opinion that the end of the Muir as a tidal water glacier is near at hand.

What will the visit of that con gressional delegation profit Alaska? Most of these men are prominent In the councils of the Nation, and may be of great benefit to us, if they will. But this is not the first delegation to come among us-some being sent at government expense and the district does not appear to have reaped very much benefit from them, mainly, we think, be- cause of a diversity of opinions formed while passing hurriedly along and gleaning few pointers from carpet-bag officials, many of whom have no interests in common with the people of the district, be- ing here solely for what there is in it. These are what poison the minds of legislators against us. Ne are always pleased to have wis itors come amongst us, and extend to them the right hand of welcome and fellowship; but if they come to glean reliable information as to conditions they should remain for weeks and glean their knowledge from personal observation.

Read regularly by more than half a million persons twice every week, and firmly estab- lished as welcome visitor to the homes of its great multitude of subscribers by reputation found- ed in the progress of almost an en- tire century, it is at once the oldest and most complete weekly news paper published in the vast terri tory through which it circulates-
 The Twrice-a-Week Republic contains ALL the news of the world, and is consequently the mir TOT that reflects the doings of the world at large. The price of this great paper is $1 per year, but as long evenings are coming on, as an inducement to give our subscribers all the news; cheap, to all who will pay their subscritions one year in advance we will send the SENTINEL and Twice-a-Week Republic for $2 per year-the price of the SENTINEL alone.

is to sue for peace at once and ac- cept the best terms it can get from the eonqnoring enemy. The other Is a gradual retreat from Manchur- ia and the continuation of a nom- inal warfare so far in the interior away from the Japanese base Of supplies that the cost in treasure and life will be small. By that means the payment of a large in demnity in money might be ayoid- ed, and Russia might make q pre- tense of permitting the war finally y to itself die out. In the latter event, Russia would, of course, lose in addition to every. item in dis pute which resulted in the war, Sakhalin island and the maritime provinces of Siberia, including NIadiyostock and an outlet to the Pacific, All things considered 1t is apparent that the sooner Russia can get peace the less will be the cost of defeat and the less drastic the humiliation.
