when | tell my friends that in
Alaska during the months of June,
July and August we have almost con-
tinual sunlight, and that it never gets
dark in the summer months, they in,
variably ask when we sleep" said F.
A. Cross, a merchant from Council,
Alaska. well, we sleep whenever we
have the opportunity. Very few of us
have a regular time Of going 10 bed
and arising except the miners, who
work in shifts and have to be more
m~ethodical.
"In the winter there is practically
nothing doing, and the few people who
stay there can sleep all they desire.
But when spring opens up business
lourishes. Every one has to work all
he possibly can, because the summer
is very short and a great deal has to
be accomplished to make up for the
%stagnation during the winter months.
1--WE have wonderful summers in
Council, as 1t never gets very warm
or cold. Several times, though, l have
seen the thermometer register 80 de-
grees. The verdure and the brush
grow with a rapidity that is astonish-
ing In the warm months. Plants grow
s. rapidly that we can raise berries
and the harder vegetables before frost
sets In"

they add to the picturesqueness oil
life, philosophers Harper's Weekly.
Millionaires and even semi-million-
aires do a great deal toward brighten
ing the landscape, and we ought not
only to suffer them to live, but to
be grateful to them. Who would will
ingly miss the gay pageant down Fifth
avenue on a spring afternoon, and re-
duce the beautiful city with its glad
decoration of well-dressed people to
the gray level Of the willing poor?
No; the world is best constituted
Just as 1t is, with all the varieties.
of people and all the varying scales
of being and of dressing. Only let
the man not yet doomed to being a
millionaire realize that, like the puc-
pie COW, it is better to see than be
one. And joy, after all, is really and
truly not to be bought with money,
nor to be found in any distant corner
of the earth, but is. in very deed, as
the sages have known in all ages, the
kingdom of heaven within.

POLITICS IN NEW STATE.
Republicans Better Organized, But Demo
Gratis Expect Victories.

Tishomingo, |. T., July 1,-Thr
people of Oklahoma and India
Territory are united in their jo.
at the passage of the statehood
bill. When it is remembered
That the people of the Indian
Territory were governed by ap-
pointees from Washington who
took their orders from the bureau
which knew nothing of cOnditi-
ons here, that they were not al
lowed to vote for even local
officers, that we have no system
of roads or schools, that we have
no land titles, that almost all the
lands in the territory are tied up
and that even a lease upon much
Of the land could not be made
without the approval of the Sec
retary of the Interior or one of
his cheap clerks, and that if a
citizen of the country went to
Washington to urge change in
affairs he was termed d "graft-
err" it will not be wondered that
the people here hail the coming
Of statehood with great joy,
The coming of fstatehood means
hot politics for the new state.
The first test of strength will
come in the selection Of delegates
to the constitutional convention.
No elections have ever oaen held
in the Indian Territory, outside
cities and towns the result will
be in doubt until the votes are
counted and both sides are eager
for the test. Oklahoma is suppos-
ed to be Republican, as is the
Creek county. On the other hand
the Democrats will carry the
Choctaw and Chickasaw nations
and it is believed the Cherokee
and Seminole nations.
The Republicans are the better
organized and have the entire
Fe deral office holding brigade
log ether with its great influence
behind them. The struggle will
be fierce one and both sides
will nominate strong tickets and
the orators Of the new states will
be reinforced by those of the
entire country as the struggle
will assume a National phase.
