NOME, with more than twice the pe- riod of development behind it, pro- duced over two million dollars less this year than Fairbanks. There are few who will claim that Fairbanks is backed by greater natural wealth than Nome is. At Fairbanks machinery and supplies of every kind are high and not always quickly to be had at any price, while at Nome low ocean freight rate is all the difference in prices from the outside. What could have thrust Fairbanks so far ahead, with the natural advantages all more favorable to Nome? At Fair banks there has been disposition to enforce the mining law, particularly that part relating to discovery; while at Nome the country has all been taken up by and held by few men, with neither discovery ar attempts at discovery made on vast areas of it. That is the answer.

A FEW people were unable to discover much merit in Rex F.. Beach's book ''The Spoilers" In fact, some have said it was the hardest kind of labor to read the book at all. People of that way of viewing the work will have to admit that the fault is in themselves, for the book has been so we'll received that its merit must be acknowledged, even though the same is hidden from some of us. The dramatization of the book has also proved tremendous success. When it was produced at a Chicago theater last month, for the first time, the author was repeatedly called for by the audi ence, and appearing before the curtain, he received the greatest ovation that was ever rendered playwright in that city

and was made as fair as fighting may ever be said to be fair. The customs of the times prevented brawls. Thus if a public man should in heat strike an- other a blow, the injured one would act the manly part by turning away and asking the advice of his friends.
 No rule will always work perfectly with men, who are imperfect creatures at best; and history gives one notable example that occurred in the Confeder- ate senate. Yancey of Alabama, on the floor of the senate, delivered such cutting philippic to Hill of Georgia that the latter struck his tormenter blow in the temple with heavy inkstand. After they had picked him up even Yancey so far forgot himself as to say: "It was a towards blow!" Yancey died of the hurt few days later.
 But it is not the purpose of this arti- cle to either defend or condemn the old time way of settling differences between southern gentlemen. It is enough to point out that the change was no inn provement

WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER l9, 1906.
THEN AND NOW.

At Money, Miss, Nov 10, J. Money, a brother of United States Senator Money, and L. J. Henderson, a planter, settled an old misunderstanding by holding on to one another and firing with pistols till Henderson was dead.
 Two days previously at Baton Rouge, La, the democratic congressman-e elect, Judge George K. Favrot, shot and killed his lifelong associate and schoolmate, Dr. H. H. Aldrich, one of the best known citizens of the city. The slayer refused to talk further than to say the killing was the outcome of a private quarrel.
 These two affairs are but samples of very frequent ones of similar nature in the southern states. It can not be said for positive fact that there are more killings according to population in the south than elsewhere; but it will not admit of doubt that more men of honorable distinction shoot each other to death in that section than in other parts of the United States.
 It may be that the stringent anti dueling laws have done more harm than good. It is certain that there was a time when public opinion did not look with favor upon men of honorable posi- ton who went forth as the self-ap- pointed executioners of their enemies.
 It is recalled that one of the most noted figures in southern public life (the editor of the Charleston News and Courier) refused to fight a duel after South Carolina had passed an anti dueiing law, declaring he would not wantonly disregard the laws of his state :; and that he himself was shortly there after killed Tn secret. And hls slayer though caught trying to bury the body was acquitted: thing that would have been impossible under the public opin- ion oi a few years before.
 There never was time when duels were frequent in the south. When diff ferences arose between men mutual friends did everything possible to adjust them, and tn most eases they suceee,led. Where combat could not be prevented there are cases of the kind to the pres ent time.--the encounter was robbed oi as many horrible features as possible,

II HOWE ITS PROBLEMS l4NLD ITS INTERESTS
ADVICE TO THE TRAVELLER
IN CASE OF ACCIDENT
How to Prevent Sickness and to Save Trouble and
Expense AfterWard.

Upon entering a car of any kind.
always select a seat on the right-hand
side facing the engine. and as near
the middle OF the ear as possible. choos-
ing also the middle of the train if 1t is
made up Of more than two coaches.
II there are but two. select the one that
is the farthest from the engine. since
heed-on collisions are moro numerous
than those Of the rear-end sort.
In cases OF collision. the middle car
OF a train is often uninjured. and the
occupants escape with a severe shaking
up. while the car at whichever end the
collision occurs is entirely wrecked. and
the passengers seriously injured, If not
killed outright. In accidents where q
train Of cars telescopes the middle
car is most often pushed on top OF the
other two, and this affords the occu-
pants a means of escape which IS not
open to those IN the cars beneath.
To prevent car sickness sit near the
middle Of the coach, for the wheels are
stationed near tho ends. and the jolting
them. Should an accident occur 70
wheel, any one sitting near that end
would receive a severe shock, IN Moth
ing more serious. The motion iB barely

being obliged 20 go out on deck from
time TO time when IL is not convenient.
AT the same time see that the room is
as far from the engine room as possible.

LAW A DEAD LETTER.

Much surprise has been OCCASION
ed at the capital of the failure of the
Washington county board of su-
pervisors to appoint commission
for the purpose of carrying out the
plan for the drainage of Black
Bayou, and thus reclaiming over
$4,000 acres of the most fertile
lands in the delta.
The bill authorizing the creation
of this drainage commission was
introduced by Senator Stone, and
passed both bodies without any OPP
position whatever, it being the cur
rent impression that the land-own-
ers in the territory at interest were
very anxious for an opportunity
to float 100000 in bonds in order
to reclaim the overfowed lands
However, some of the largest land
owners precipitated fight against
the measure and won out in the
contest before the board of super
visors.
It is not believed that the Alcorn
district drainage bill can be made
to apply to Black Bayou, especial
ly since a majority of the land own
ers have knocked out the special
act. .-Jockson News.
