FAVORED BY Senate

IDGE MEASURE IN OPPOSE
TIoN TO HOUSE.
Demand of Stockmen for Immediate
Passage Of Measure Guaranteeing
Thorough inspection Aids Senator's
in Their Contention.

Washington, June 22.-Unless the
bill and agrees to assess the cost of
inspection ON the packers and to pro-
VIDE that the date of federal inspec-
ton shall be stamped on the meat
product packages the session of con-
gress may be indefinitely prolonged.
This is the opinion of Senator Bev-
erfhge author Of the original meat
bill who has sounded his colleagues
in the senate. Although the president
has approved the present house sub
stitute, the senate seem disposed to go
further and insist that the provisions
of the whole Beveridge bill as orig
inally drawn shall be put back In. the
bill
Senate Has Upper Hand.
10 all appearances the senate has
the whip hand in the controversy and
if tt is insistent it is expected to carry
the day. There is a hue and cry from
the stOckmen for the immediate pas
sage of rigid bill and members Of
the house will be in an embarrassing
position in the face of an election if
they oppose the senate too long What
Speaker Cannon and the house COM
mittee ON agriculture will do if con-
fronted by the senate amendments has
not been dfvulged.

In our Almanac for many years past we
have given unusual advice to those Attic
ted with coughs, colds, throat or lung
troubles or consumption. We have told
them if they did not receive any special
benefit after the use of one 75-cent size
bottle of German Syrup, to consult their
doctor. We did not ask them or urge
them to use large number of bottles, as
is the case in the advertising of many
other remedies. Our confidence in Ger
man Syrup makes it possible for us to
give such advice. We know by the ex-
perience of over IS years that one 75-cent
bottle of German Syrup will speedily re-
lieve or cure the worst coughs, colds,
bronchial or lung troub1es-and that,
even in bad cases Of consumption, one
large bottle of German Syrup will work
wonders. New trial bottles, 25c.; reg
ular size, 75c. At all druggists.

He will be hurried out to serve his sentence at McNeil's island.

As showing the gradual increases in the gold production in the Seward pe- ninsula, the following statement, made up from the customs books, is inter- esting. The shipment of gold through the customs house to date has been S4, ,969, ,92626. This is the amount of gold that has actually passed through the customs house. By the end of the season it is expected that this amount will be S6,000,000. It is we'll known, however, that many miners prefer to carry their gold out themselves rather than pay the charges of shipment. This further sum is estimated to be suft1- cient to bring the total amount of the gold production to S6,250000. This will be the banner year. The gold pro- duction in 1903 was s2,850,967.25. In 1904 it was s3,81S,00282. In 1905 it was S4 .64S, ,855. .72-Nome News.
 Kazis Krauczunas, inspector in the United States immigration service, is in Skagway again and will see to the enforcement of the immigration laws on the White Pass. The law requires that all foreigners except Canadians, coming into the United States, must contribute S2 to the national eXchequer and they must be men or women who will make desi rable citizens. Mir. Krauczunas will go through each fthe trains of the White Pass, and those who he thinks should be excluded from the United States will be required to pro- ceed to Canadian port, while those foreigners, with the exception stated, will be required to pay as provided by law.
 A side light was thrown on life in modern Alaska by single incident that happened recently in Seattle. Seven thousand five hundred cases of canned cream, fifteen freight car loads, was ordered by one Seattle firm for shipment to Alaska, from single can nery in Kent, a town in White river valley lying just south of Seattle. The entire order went north on the first departing steamer. This condensed milk is the kind Alaska uses. The milk received at the cannery in Washington is reduced to little less than half it's volume The product is called cream, kand bears various titles according to the factory turning it out, as Carnation cream, Primrose cream or Chrysanthe- mum cream. All steamers, trains, camping parties, prospectors, mining and logging camps on the North Pacific use it. All Alaskans drink it as freely as they eat bacon. So the territory, country of ready money, with a fast increasing population, is supporting rapidly growing farming population in the state of Washington. This, then IS the great difference between Alaska and any former gold camps in America; the people who are developing the country live we'll In farthest Nome there is a newspaper whose type is set up on a linotype machine. There, too, the shut-in months are enlivened with dances at which the men are required to wear full dress. There arc carpets on the floors of the log huts; there are pianos in the quickly built clubs; As sociated Press news is printed in the newspapers, and there is cream on AL askan tables. Alaska is far from being wilderness.-Ex

Word comes from Seattle that the Alaska Steamship Company has closed a contract with the Moran Company, of Seattle, for a new passenger steamer for the Alaskan run. The new steamer will be built on the plans of the Jeffer- son but larger and of steel. She will be faster than the Jefferson and one of the best passenger ships on the Pacific coast.

The notorious Sheldon Jackson is making hard fight to retain his graft in connection with educational matters in Alaska, and he, in the manner that he and Gov. Brady and the others of their crowd have made so familiar in Alaska, is appealing for churchinf ences for help. It is needless to say that his appeal reaches only the human and selfish side of the church. It would not reach that were it not that the settlers miners and business men of Alaska have been so consistently misrepresent- ed by them that many eastern church people look upon them all as adventur- CTS, Indian robbers and criminals gen. erally.-EX.

Too much credit cannot be given to Mir. s. A. Shea, who in the face of dis couraging obstacles and the loss of one entire season, has persevered in his undertaking and finally succeeded in making it absolutely apparent that at least certain classes of vegetables can be grown in these attitudes to as high, if not higher degree of perfection, as in the states. Lettuce, rutabagas, cab bage, kale, spinach, beets, parsley, three kinds of turnips and four kinds of radishes have been supplied to this camp, the surrounding creeks and sent as far as Solomon this season by their cultivator and he has not alone dem- onstrated the practibility of vegetable culture, but also that it can be made to pay. From his experiments he is also satisfied that cereals can be raised of good quality and did the time permit, he would establish the fact that many other vegetables could be cultivated to great advantage The importance of this must not be underestimated. Many Alaskans have poohooed the idea of raising vegetables in these latitudes to commercial advantages and to the ma iority of those who have never been here, the variety, quality and quantity of our vegetable products would come as tremendous surprise. A new field of industry is opened up in the vicinity of every camp in the peninsula and, not alone will such industry advantage the cultivator, but it will ultimately solve the difficult problem which arises yearly with regard to the shipments of fresh vegetables from the outside, If little patch such as Mr. Shea has cultivated this season, can supply a camp like Council and surroundings, there is DO inhabited community that ever need suffer for the lack of fresh vegetables. Mir. Shea, through trouble with his eyes, is obliged to go to the outside this fall and it is to be earnest ly hoped that the industry that he has inaugurated will not be allowed to die out and that some energetic citizen will take hold of the proposition for his own as we'll as for the camps sake Council City News.

ROOSEVELT

The recent message Of Rooseyelts to
Congress is nothing more or less than
political lightning and its full force has
been spent upon the party machines.
The president has done more towards
dissolving the former party Arguments
than all other men together, and i'll so
doing he has rendered the country his
greatest service. In times past, theloYe
of the "dear old party" has so domina-
ted the voting sentiment OF the rank
and file of the United States, that party
machines were thus enabled to rule and
ruin. The people under a wise guidance
OF an independent president are coming
more and more to see to just what ex-
tent they have been made tools OF by
men who make politics a profession.
The good in a public servant should
dominate the favor melted out, and not
his political complexion. After all, the
good of our country is the common
cause.

mandatory publication of alllaws passed,
in a newspaper of general circulation in
the county or district affected. Atevery
session of the state legislature, a great
number of bills are passed, the vast
majority Of which are local measures.
The limited number OF copies OF the
doings of each legislature, that are sent
out make it impossible for the people,
who are most concerned, TO know any
thing of the laws under which they
may be taxed, or otherwise affected.
The county papers reach practically all
of the people of each county, and
through them alone can the people oil
the state be made acquainted with the
new measures, which are bi-annually
matured and placed on our statute
books.
1t is fair to presume that the people
in general would welcome such a mea-
sure, inasmuch as it would directly
benefit them and keep them in absolute
touch with each legislature.

VOLUME ".

With this issue the Churchill Stand
ard enters upon the fourth year OF its
existence. The past year has been a
particularly prosperous one. The adj
vertising patronage has grown to such
proportion that we feel that the patrons
OF the paper are entitled to a number oil
new innovations, which will be ma
tured shortly. The subscription list
has more than doubled during the past
year and continues to grow at al amaz-
ing rate.
When the Churchill Standard was
first started, it was the only newspaper
in the county. With the growth OF the
various industries OF the county, other
newspapers have found sufficient in
ducem6nts To constitute fields, until
now the county has three other news
papers with still others projected. But
we bear in mind that times have changed
since Benjamin Franklin started his
first newspaper venture. At that time,
there were but three other periodicals
published on the American continent,
but tire field was 50 limited that his
mother-in-laW wept crocodile tears in
fear that such an undertaking would
prove Improbable, and her daughter
thus starve. Social, economic anda me
chanical conditions have changed to
such a'degree that today, it does not
require the fortitude nor ability enjoyed
by Franklin to found country papers.
" here there were but four papers in
the time Of Franklin heralding the
news OF the week, today we have many
thousands. If franklin made good in a
worldwide, age-long way, there is an
abundance Of hope for the infinitely
less capable OF tins day, in which cate
CORY, we are decidedly pleased 10 be
placed.
To the many who have so generously
extended patronage and moral support,
we wish at TINS time 10 extend our
heartfelt gratitude. Our best foot will
be put forward in the future, in the in
tcrest Of the upbuilding OF the town OF
Fallon and the county OF Churchill, and
while our efforts may be feeble, we
have many demonstrations that the
seed which has been sown in the past
has often found lodaement and much
good has resulted. To be able to do
s netling for the field We represent, is
our highest ambition.

CALIFORNIA; INCONSISTENCY.

The matter OF securing a terminal rate
for Nevada, which has been agitated for
some time past by Reno and other Ne
Vada interests, is meeting with strong
protests from California sources. 1t is
= pot enogh that Neyada's capital derived
from mining exploitation should find fl
nal lodgment in California enterprises,
but we must also pay tribute to Cali
.fornis jobbers, who see in the securing
OF Il terminal rate, for the state of Ne
vada, the loss of a large amount OF
/. wholesale trade. In times past every
. effort to secure a more equitable adjust
. ment OF freight rates, has met with the
J same Characteristic protest from Cali
fornia organizations, but unless we miss
u guess, Neyada's interests are grow
ing so rapidly That We seriously doubt
whether California can, with a united
protest succeed in keeping US a c%lIattel,
fit only to be bled.
At the outside, the terminal rates can
only be deferred a few years, or until
the completion OF tie Western Pacific
railroad, which is an assured fact. 1t
would tend to materially lessen the bit
ter feeling that will otherwise exist
between Nevada and California interests,
il the citizens OF the latter state would,
instead OF opposing the present move
ment to secure terminal rates, blend
II -. ~. ,YfFl, Tho aitizana al nur
own state, and thus show their worthi-
ness and appreciation OF the hundreds
OF millions OF dollars OF Nevada's mon
ey that has found its way into the Gold
en- state.
Nevada is stronger today in a COM
mercial sense and in point of popula-
ton than size has eyer been, and this
strength is permanent, and will be added
10 greatly as the future years go by.
We have been a sleeping giant long
enough.
LAYING aside the matter of CALIFORNIA;
selfish and arbitrary stand, there Is
much that can be said against the
methods of extortion practiced by the
m~onopolistic railway company operating
tbrough this state, which have returned
5mmense remunerative reward. 1t is
unite time that Nevada should rise up
IN arms against the extortion, n
whatever local differences may exist be-
tween the various portions OF the state
should be laid aside, for the present at
least, and a lighting front Of solldlty
presented for terminal rates, a unit for
!, Common cause.
