MORE TRAVEL AT 2 CENTS
CFrom the Minneapolis Tribuue)


 The hopeful thory of The Tribune that the 2-cent passenger rate would pay for itself in earning of in- creased business seems to be justified by the experience in Nebraksa. That was the first state in this neighbor- hood to get the 2-cent fare into ac- tive operation.
 The act there was the occasion of some despondency on the part of pub lie men as we'll as railroad officials, It was forced on the legislature by the motive power of public opinion and signed under protest by a governor who sincerely believed it bad public policy. The Union Pacific, which owns a controlling interest in the rail- road politics of Nebraska, threatened all kind of retribution and predicted all kinds of disaster,
 Five weeks experience has sur prised railroad men and politicians alike with notable increase of travel between the cities and the smaller towns. The reduction of one-third in the cost of transportation has stim- ulated travel like an excursion rate. People from all parts of the state are coming to Omaha to shop and go to the theaterS.
 ItiS like perpetual excursion with no temporary attraction to divert buy CTS from the regular shops, and with abundant leisure on the part of eX- cursionists to spend their money in permanent places of barter and enter tainment. This has gone so far that country merchants throughout the state are said to be complaining bit terly.

SKINNY ON YOUR OWN SIDE

The Skagway Alaskan aftirms that "Skagway is located in the midst of the greatest mineral region in the north. We are virtually surrounded by quartz and placer fields which bear gold, silver, copper, lead and other minerals. This city is he hub of this district and the connection between tidewater and land transportation. It offers an ideal location for SmelterS and the headquarters for mining com pauieS"
 That's the way to boost. Of course we'll informed people know that Skag- way is second among Alaska mining towns in the value of it's resources, Seward being first, but the man who won't shinny on his own side ought to get out of the game.

Capt. O,Brlen does Fishing

Capt. John A. O'Brien of the Yuca- tan was the guest of honor in a fishing party at Bear Lake yesterday. It was very exciting day for the mariner. He failed to catch any trout with a hook but he caught one in his hands that Topped on the bank when shoal of them filled up the water in one place like sardines in a box. Capt. O'Brien was right there with the big mitt and he grabbed that fish before it had time to turn over and run for cover. After that the captain thought trout fishing was fine sport until he came home on the handcar, which came down hill so fast he had heart trouble. He said it was his first handcar ride and he preferred a storm at sea.

SOME FEDERAL IDEALIsM

Cable tolls in Alaska offer cumula- tive testimony Co the beneticeut charac- ter of the ideal paternaliSm in whose gIow the territory iS now baSkiug, par ticularly press rates. Canada permits the transmission of news to newspapers at half a cent a word over the Canad- ian land telegraph lines. Press rates to Alaska vary according to distance but average at least 3 cents word, with a discount when the same mes sage goes Co several papers.
 Low press rates to northern news paper, are not a gratuity to the paper lou, am advantage Co the people. The newspapers cannot afford to pay large sums for telegraph news and the num- Der of words taken iS limited by the rate. If the rates were cut in half the readers of Alaska papers would get twice aS much news.
 A curious obiuScation of judgment ln arranging press rates iS found in che fact that minimum press rates radiate from Seattle alone. Whether rhis is a bounty to Seattle or the pro- duct of a brainStorm k uncertain but the fact remains that 8 press message can be sent from almost any station in Alaska Co Seattle and back to almost any other Alaska station for less money than it can be sent direct from one Alaska station to another. X reduc- tion m cost k effected by repeating a message several times unnecessarily and incidentally losing a good deal of Jime in it's final delivery.
 It is true that the Alaska cable and telegraph are military lines, as the people are patronizingly informed, and that the privilege of using the wires for private business iSa favor dispensed by the government, and the frequent reiteration of thIS fact and parading of it's profit show how grudgingly the government grants concessions to Alaska.
