the rapids destroyed the high market price for grain which was making two three farmers rich, and it has ever since been eontended that the farmers were justly en- titled to heavy damages. They do not believe progress has the right to crush the individual or to imperil his welfare.
 That is an old-fashioned way of looking at things, but to know the people is to love them for their kind heartedness and hospi- tality. and to at least respect their view of duty to themselves and the world.

WEDNESDAY, JUNE 5, 1907.
CONDITIONS AS THEY ARE.

There has never been time when the great natural resources of the interior of Alaska have been so manifest as now. The explorations to the mort h of the Yukon river have demonstrated that payable gold is not confined to a small area, and the pros- poets for good diggings all along the south encouraging. The old districts of Fortymie and Circle are yielding certain and increas- ing profits and the newer fields of the Panama and its tributaries in their brief history have been successive instances of new-found wealth. From east to west clear through the territory it looks like there may develop a wide belt of paying camps. The suitability of the country for permanent habitation--the productiveness of the soil the abundance of fish and game, the unlim- ited pasturage and the beauties of land- scape and delights of climate--is generally recognized and it is hard to find an individ- ual who does not realize that this must some time become a land of homes. Even far i'm side the arctic circle conditions are ideal for domesticty. In the little camp of Rampant are homes rivaling for comfort and pleasant surroundings those of the most favored localities in the States.
 With all this it is undeniable that there is q feeling of uneasiness and some of the best people in the country are leaving, perhaps not to return. When the season of open water hears it's end many more may be ex- pected to go. If others come and take their places they may be of different class to those who have staid with the country thus far-and they will not be any better.
 Labor troubles in some degree are respon- sble for loss of faith in the inn ediate future. The rapid shutting out of oppor- tunity through the stalking of vast tracts of land. unlawfully is a more serious cause fC r apprehension, and the dread of costly and unsought and unmerited civil and criminal cases in court is real and widespread. Other things, including a distrust of the present system of government, contribute to feel ing that is harmful and will assuredly cause cheek in the peopling of most interesting and productive corner of the world.

However, his bond was fixed at S3,00O, and he went to jail for want of sure- ties and was finally taken to court hand- cuffed and shackled and chained fast to steamers cabin. In the instance of the two men first named it was left to the court to punish them if they are found guilty; the poorer man was punished in advance of his trial.

The Present and the Future.

gathered from the actual experience
the running of elevated, subway
ind interurban lines to establish some
hing like a comparison between the
electric motor and the steam locomo-
i've, from which a definite idea may
De gained of what is likely to take
place on the railroads of this country
the near future.
According to an estimate, if all the
railways of the United States were to-
day run by electricity, using the sys-
lem adopted for the equipment of the
New Haven railroad, the energy re-
quired being developed by power
plants such as are now in extensive
use, the aggregate cost of railroad OPP
Grafton, which in 1905 amounted, in
round numbers, to $1,40O,000, 900,
would be reduced by about $250,000,-
900. In other words, it appears that
the entire railroad system of the Unit
ed States could be operated at a less
cost by the electric motor than by the
steam locomotive, and this with an
earning power much greater than it
Las to-day.
That the change from steam to cleo
tricity will come at once is not re-
Earded as either possible or advisa.
BILE. The art of electric traction as
applied upon a large scale to heavy
trains is still young, and the wisdom
of making haste with elaboration in a
matter involving interests of such
magnitude as those which are tied up
Nth the transportation systems of the
United States is obvious. But in view
pf the present-day experience of the
railroad companies the era of the
steam locomotive appears to be rap
idly nearing its close.

HOW THEY SCORED.

teacher in one of the public
schools was recently complimented
because of the success attending the
examination of her pupils. 1t was
noticed that her class of boys seemed
TO be able to solve all problems.
When a question was asked every
boys hand in the class was raised.
The principal of the school was
putting the questions, and the lady
teacher would call on pupil to
make the answer. Although more
than a score of questions were asked,
in no instance was an incorrect an
swer given. The principal was so
pleased at the result that he made
special reference to Miss Dash's pro-
fciency as teacher in each of the
class-rooms he visited.
Probably envy was caused by the
fact that in no other classroom did
the pupils seem to be so well up in
their studies One of the teachers,
whose pupils did not acquit them
selves very creditably, made an inves-
4 ugauon ana succeeded IN gaming tue
confidence of one of the boys under
Miss Dash's care.
Now, Johnny said she, how is it
that all you boys know the an
1 swers?"
But we don't all know" said
Johnny.
But you all put up your hands as
Il Il you did"
II Miss Dash tells us all to put up
-Four hands when the question is asked.
Il We boys who don't know the answer
u put up our left hands, and the boys
n who know the answer put up their
Wight hands, and then Miss Dash only
Aasks the boys who have a right
