AN ALASKAN EXPOSITION

The enterprisIng citizens Of Seattle,
Wash., are said to be considering n
proposition to have an Alaskan exhi-
hition In that city during the summer
OF 1897, using the government Alaska
exhibit at the Portland fair as a basis
Of the show The country IS becoming
somewhat tired Of exhibitions, but II
can be said In favor OF such undertake
ings that, since they keep many Amer
lean tourists at home and give them an
opportunity Of becoming acquainted
with their own country they are a
source Of good, indirectly as well as d.
rectly. They should be encouraged by
all means. An Alaskan exposition,
however, would more properly be held
In Alaska, provided It were possible TO
make the necessary arrangements. To
many American citizens that region
would be o veritable revelation. II
they have pictured II 10 their minds as
an icebound waste, ft only for Polar
bears, they would be agreeably sur
prlsed to find q country with all the
beauties and advantages Of other
lands Of the midnight sun" And II
the American citizens generally were
better acquainted with the country
they would better understand It's needs,
and the government would be improved
accordingly We sometimes hear Of
American misgovernment Of far distant
possessions, As far as the criticism Is
just the fault Is rather IN ignorance
Of prevailing conditions than IN indiffer-
ence to the welfare of the people con.
cerned This Ia the case with Alaska.
An Alaskan exhibition might help
making the country better known, and
thus contribute to the adoption Of I'M
proved measures Of government

IN SEARCH OF LIFE.

Recent experiments by Professor
Loeb have led some people to the alto
gether too hasty conclusion that life is
but result OF accidental chemical
combinations. To those who cannot, or
win not, acknowledge a Divine lntelll-
gonce as the creator and preseryer OF
the world, such conclusions may not
appear absurd. but Il Is certain that
they are not sustained by the research

1t has been remarked IN the discus
sion Of this subject that war indemnity
is a modern invention, which indicates
some refinement IN belllgerent man
kind. Formerly armies simply went
through the countries or the enemy

whatever valuable property came with
In reach. What they could not carry
on they destroyed. Conquered nations
paid for the war by the loss OF cities
and treasures, and sometimes the carry

such barbarous conduct Of hostllitles
and the war indemnity seems TO have
taken the place Of pillage and plumber
Perhaps the question Of indemnity
could be referred to The Hague tribunal
If the two powers cannot otherwise
agree on that point Then, peace might
be concluded now. and the money ques-
ton be settled later.

TUBERCULOSIS.

In the current number Of Medical Re-
cord appears an article on tuberculosis
which Is especially interesting because
the conclusions arrived at are based on
observations Of series Of cases Sc
lected because Of the completeness Of
tho records available. The first point
deals with the manner In which that
dread disease begins. The writer says:
"Of ono hundred cases it was found
that In 30 per cent the first presumable
evidence OF tuberculosis consisted In
either coughs or colds CAS- per cent?,
run down condition OS per cent?, or
pleursy, dry or with effusion ga per
cent? The remaining 20 per cent was
about evenly divided between grippe,
Chills and fever (malariO. pneumonia
prolonged recovery, enlarged cervlcal
glands, and hemoptysis. In only 4 per
cent Of the one hundred cases was
hemoptysis tho first presumablc evil
dence, but IN "A per cent this symptom
ushered IN the first demonstrable evil
dence. The author believes that the
great majority Of patients who APP
parently develop pulmonary tuber-
culosls after the age OF thirty had an
attack OF the disease before. The an
alyss shows that three and a half
months was the average time that
elapsed from the actual beginning Of
the disease to the appearance Of tu-
bercle bacilli in the sputum The study
OF the features Of value in prognosis
Is based on the records Of patients adj
mitted TO sanatorium treatment, and
shows. among other things that the
age between twenty-five and thirty II
especially favorable, and that the gem
eral vitality and intelligence Of the pa
tient and the state VI the digestion are
Of Importance, whereas whether one
lobe or more than one is involved ls Of
less significance than usually SUD-
posed Fever. hemorrhages, expectora-
ton. or bacllli I'm the sputum are Of
little value IN the prognosis unless the
case has been watched for a long time.
An analysis Of hfty-hve cured sana-
forum cases showed that the average
age was high-twenty-nine and that
the long-lived ancestry Of the patients
was a point of especial Importance.
but Il tuberculous family history was
Of less import The average length of
life among the Tuberculosis poor, with
no advantages Of rest or good food, is
a little under two years"
