THE SOUTH'S
 GREAT PROBLEMS

Editor Graphic:
 The two great problems before the southern people at the present moment are additional transporta- tion facilities and material in- crease of the labor element. The complaint of shortage of cars to move cotton, lumber and other freight. is too general to admit of an ordinary or usual remedy. Ad- ditional cars and additional track age will not solve the problem, though means like these would re- lieve the strain. By the time that the roadbeds of our railways are sufficiently protected to allow dou- ble tracks and extra trains, the traffic will have grown to greater proportions from the rapid settle ment of the south by the saw mill men of our northern states, the through railways to the Gulf of Mexico and foreign immigration. Within ten years almost all the great railway systems will be dou- ble tracked.
 But the problem of transporta- tion will remain unsolved. What Is needed is additional lines of transportation of railway and wat erway, and if our boards of trade will bend all their energies to get ting new lines of railway and i'm proving the navigable waterways, they Will be doing a most acceptable servIre and will have everything in readiness to meet the demands of the future as they arise It is nt- ter impossibility for the compara- lively few railways that are in ex- JsteHcc to handle the freight that F Dew raady, to say nothinr of inc

With the cable assured, our next effort should be to attract the attention of congress to the importance of the improvement of the Dry Straits. Lets give strong pull and a pull together, and get the ball to rolling. If the attention of congress were properly called to this matter, we believe that 1t would receive prompt attention.- Wrangell Sentinel.
 The value of the government cable to Alaska and the growth of business in the territory itself are both shown by the report ofreceipts from commercial business of the cable service during the months since it was first laid. The growth of business has been steady since the line was opened in June, ,l9O4. The receipts for the month of July, ,l9O4 were s6,275. For the month of April, 1906, they were s20,145. The gain was steady, month by month. In April of last year, the receipts had grown to s9G65. Since that time they have more than doubled.

It is said that minister in Seattle from his pulpit made the declaration that it was God who overthrow the city of San Francisco as punishment for their wickedness, for he claimed that it was1a desperately wicked city. If this theory is correct the same minister should lose DO time in hiking out of Seattle. We cannot believe it,however,s for if modern cities are punished for their wickedness, we shudder to think what would have happened to Dawson during the early years of her history. To tell the truth, Dawson is no saints rest even at present, but there was a time when not to exceed two or three in dozen households could show up marriage licence. No,we do not believe that San Francisco was overthrown on account of her wickedness.-W -Whitehorse Star.
