SIMILARITY OF CONDITIONS

There is much in the present of Alas ka that recalls the conditions 10 winch the application of patriotism made tie name of Washington great, and brought 1t down to our lime as fresh and yerdant with liberty as it was just after vlctery had crowned the heroic efforts of the father Of his cou- try at Yorktovu, when he was called to become chief executive Of s country which stood for selt-gov- srnment in all that term implies. The people of that time had taxes levied upon them for the purpose of raising revenues to enforce laws in the making of which they had no voice. So with Alaska today. These laws were admin Istered by people in the selection of whom the people of the colonies were not consulted. Likewise with AlasFa today.
 The Anglo-SaxOn spirit of liberty Aud patriotism that deveIoPed Wash Ington secured for the Americans of the 18th century selfgovernment, the Ooly remedy for the ills of that time, and the spirit of Washington and the patriotism of the people of Alaska will secure the same remedy for Alaskans. It will be easier for the people of Alas kG to secure the desired results than it vas for the American colonists, because we have an American people and an American congress to deal with, while those of that time dealt with mon- Grehy. Let Alasksns makS the people of the nation aware of the CO ditions as they exist in their district, and they will force the congress to grant us our right to selt-governmeut.

ABOUT AMERICAN HISTORY

Those people of Sksgwsy, even down t1 the lowest grades in the primary de- pArtment of the public school, who read the statement ln the Guide this morn Ing that Washington was S tory, proba- bly, smiled at the pitiiul ignorance dis played.
 Ofthe word ''tory" in American his tory, the Century Dictionary and Cycle pedik says:
 "A member of the British party dur log the revolutionary period; a loyarst The tories were very numerous and many of them took up arms for the k,ng. Alter the war many Of them smigrated to Canada and else where.
 Webster says:
 "One who, in the time of the revolu- ,iou. favored submitting to the claims of Great Britain against the colonies; An adherent to the crown
 If Washington were loyalist, what was he doing in the Virginia House of Burgesses which was suspended for dis loyaltyP If he favored the british party, why was he a member of the ContiuentAl congress? If he were a tory, why was he at the head Of the revolutionary army?
 Washington Was not a tory, nor were the cavaliers of American history tories.

of scientific study, but whatever the experiments may ultimately show re-
 garding its ability to become establish cd snd to thrive in the United States. 1t seems certain that the social organt-
 zation of the species does not disquali- fy it for a future of agricultural utility. To prejudice its prospects by reference to the habit of the true ants would be the same kind of error as to discredit the honey-bee on the ground that the
 bumElebees and wasps ars worthless and undesirable insects.
 Recent advices from Texas, received just as this paper is being completed. seem to indicate that the colonies which have been left out in the open ground of the cotton fields. without
 care or food, will not survive the win-
 ter, thu ugh they have lived long
 enough to she W >that low temperature alone is not fatal, thus confirming the result of a eold-storege experiment
 made in Washington in August, 1904.
 hs already explained, the colonies of
 the first importation were far too small to make the experiment a fair one, and they were planted in Texas after the
 middle of July, 1904. much too late in
 the season. A knowledge of the social
 organization of the insect will permit
 these end other obstacles to be avoided
 in the importations to be made in the coming spring. and 1t is hooed that a satisfactory and conclusive test will
 result.

TWO CONVICST PAROLED
MACON COUNTY NEGROES GET THEIR FREEDOM.
Hilliard Seats is Inirm and There ts Doubt of GuiIt of John Patrick scott's Parole Ex-
 tended.

Paroles to two negroes. John Patrick, and HiiIiard Seats. of Macon County. in the penitentiary for manslaughter and murder respectively were yesterday issued by Governor Jelks on recom- mendations of the State Board of Par dons.
 The parole of Will Scott, a white man, was extended eleven days to allow him to testify in the trial of his brother in Sumter County before November TO- His brother is charged with the mnr- der of R. H. Seymour, of Sumter Coun- ty, In 1902
 In the application of Hilliard Seats. it was set out that he has but one eye and one leg. He is also physically very weak and incapable of much work by a certificate of a reliable physician. He was convicted at the fall term of the Macon County Circuit Court in 1904 and has made a good convict. Nearly every county officer put their their names to the petition for clemency.
 Patrick has served two of the five years to which he was sentenced for manslaughter. It was shown that the circumstances were such at his trial that he was not given the benefit of all evidence then in existence and since the conviction testimony pointing to his probable innocence has been submitted.
 The words of the Governor in the two cases are as follows:
 Hilliard Seats-'This man Is a one eyed and one legged negro and weak physically. The trial judge writes noe that there was some evidence provok- ing the difficulty that could not be brought out in the trial. The solicitor joins the trial judge in a statement that the prisoner has already been suf- ficiently punished for the offense. A large number of petitioners, including nearly every county officer. advise me that it is a case in which clemency ought to be exercised The Board of Pardons advise a parole or a pardon
 Tt is ordered that a parole be Issued to Hilliard Seats dependent on his future good conduct"
 John Patrick-'This man has served two of his five years sentence In the penitentiary. The trial judge and the solicitor both recommend clemency for him. A large number of citizens of the county and practically all of the county officers also recommend clemen- cy. The Board of Pardons advise 1t. The petitioners charge that the man killed was a turbulent and overbearing man and that John Patrick was under

 At a later date. the Commission will inspect the other branch lines on the main lines.'' said President Conner after concluding the trip, according to MT. Griffin, who has just arrived in Montgomery. '"The depots were all in good condition. On the branch lines some of the depots were not in good condition, and the officers said they would put them in proper condition at an early date.
 The officers of the road, T. s. Noise. General Manager. and W. A. Winburn. Third Vice-President, were courteous and made the trip as pleasant as pos sible. There were no material com. plaints. except at Sacho. Ala, where there was a shortage of depot facili- ties, and at opelika for a new depot"
 By special request of President Co., mer, the next regular meeting of the Commission will not be held on Mon- day, November 6, as it was set some time ago, but on Tuesday, November '. instead At this meeting it 'is not known what will be considered unless it be the fixing of passenger fares for the Louisville and Nashville Railroad for some of its branch lines.
 At the meeting in the latter, part of September, President Conner made a motion to make the fare on all branch lines in the State cents. claiming that they are feeders to the main lines. He said he was willing to make an exeep- tion in the cases of short independent lines, and in some instances might vote for a fare of s cents a mile.
