F. B. Dunn, Skagway's director of the Alaska-Tukon-Paciic exposition, has receiveI a letter fromGov. Hoggatt notifying him that Alaska's exhibit must be raised by the Alaskan people without aid from the federal govern meut, and urging the people to begin preparing to make 8 creditable show ing.
 The letter is dated April 29th and Is as follows.
 Congress having failed at it's last session to appropriate money for au Alaskan exhibit at the Alaska-YukOn- Pacific Exposition to be held in Seattle in 1909, the success of our exhibit will largely depend upon ourselves. 1 have therefore to request that you use your utmost endeavors !o get the people of your section to take CD interest in the collection of aruclss of interest, show ing the industry and resources of your district, during the coming summer and winter.
 "I, is only by such means and such efforts that Alaska will be able to make a credjtable exhibit. Ibave DO doubt that Congress at its next session will make some provision for the care and transportation and exhibit of such things as the Alaskan Directors of the Exposition may be able to secure, and I hope, therefore, that you will be able to create an interest in this matter, and have your district exhibit as nearly ready as possible one year from now"

To Decide When Whisky Is whiskey

Washington, d. *. March -. When

problem might be fippantly answered

really decide the matter.
DR.. Harvey w. Wiley, the chemical
sharp Of the government and pure food
aqitator, SAYS that whiskey is not whis.
key when it contains anything else,
while Secretary Wilson of the depart
ment OF agriculture, holds that whfskey
may be whiskey even though il contains
something other than whiskey.
To the ordinary mind, whiskey j.
whiskey, but not to the government
since the pure food law went into ef.
feet.
DR. Wiley went to the White House
with bottles Of an kinds Of whiskey to
talk straight whiskey to the president.
He came in cab and two porters car
ried the bottles into the presidents Of
fee Then, arranging the bottles in rows
on table. Dr.. Wiley undertook to tell
the president exactly what constitutes
whiskey chemically.
Just what position the president will
take is problematical, but anything that
he says ii whiskey is whiskey.

WOLVES awe FOXES IN rHE wEsr
The Reason For The Prevalence of The

Some Lamar fox hunters were dis.
cussing the prevalence Of wolves and
the decrease in the number Of foxes
tbefeabout This they explained easily,
In the first place the wolf is strong
hardy and great breeder. A wolf will
begin to rear puppies when she is
year old, and there are from nine To
twelve in a litter. Usually every puppy
in the litter lives to be a full grown
wolf. Thus the coyote, as well as his
larger and more powerful gray or black
brethren, multiplies very rapidly
Then the wolf Il not chased with the
zest and eagerness with which the
sportsmen go after Sir REWARD. The
ordinary fox dog won't % against
wolf when he Is at bay. and further,
hounds that get into the habit Of chas.
ing wolves can't tell the trail Of their
quarry from thai Of shepherd dog.
The result is that every farmer soon
gets sore on bunch Of hounds that
are trained to hunt wolves. They ara
always cornering an innocent farm dor
and putting him TO death, thinking
that they have run onto an easily van
pushed wolf
"a fox" declared Mr. Timmonds, con
the other hand, is one of the most deli
cate animals in the world. In the first
place, he can't fight. The very moment
