The Temiskaming & Northern Ontario railroad, d government-owned line in Ontario, Canada, has netted the prov ince about $lsO,OOO for the year just ended. Unaided capital would have passed up the road as a nonpaying in- vestment, and therefore the benefit to the communities served is one of the things emphasized by advocates of gov ernment ownership.
 Capt. John J. Healy, who was con- nected with project to exploit the kuskokwim but which resulted in the company going into the hands of receiver last fall, still looks on that section as a second Yukon valley and predicts that the kuskokwim will be opened some day and proven rich re- glon, great producer, and marvel to many who now little dream of it.
 Major J. F. A. Strong, editor of the Dawson News in the flush times of the Canadian camp and founder of the Nugget at Nome, has started paper at Greenwater, Cal, where the Guggen- helms have big copper mine. He says Greenwater will be a second Butte, and that as soon as possible the Guggen- helms will add to the plant already there, which will make the production of the camp run far into the millions.
 Mattienzo Cintron, speaker for the delegates and leader of the unionist party in Porto Rico, sharply criticised President Roosevelt's message to con- gress where it has reference to Porto Rico. He said that to grant to the Porto Ricans United States citizenship with out self government is impossible of acceptance. But should it become a fact it would be the hour to say to the people of Porto Rico, "Prepare your selves to win your liberty with sword and gum The sentiment is indorsed quite largely and is clearly meant for what 1t appears, d threat of revolt under certain circumstances. Pending the granting of citizenship such talk can not he treated as sedton; but it has been plainly intimated to the unionist leader that repetition of his statements will subject him to arrest and incarceration for stirring up revolt.

"The Eskimos that I met in King William Land have no facilities for cooking, and live entirely on raw meat and fish, not being at all particular about having them fresh,' said Captain Roald Amundsen, successful navigator of the northwest passage, in New York a couple of months ago. II saw about a thousand Eskimos in all Several of the tribes had never seen any white men before our arrival They were generally inclined to be timid at the start but they soon grew friendly.
 .I have read somewhere that the lan- guage they speak is very simple and easy to learn. That is not my impress sion. It seems very complicated and unusually difficult We were only able to communicate by signs, and we learned very few words. In the section of the north where | spent most of the time the natives Use deerskins almost exclu- sively for clothing-not sealskins, as the Eskimos do in Greenland. One reason for this, probably, is because they do not get the big seals that are caught in Greenland, but q very small species and tLey require an the skins they get for making their tents and canoes.

RAMPART, ALASKA, Jan. 2S, 1907.
 Editor Yukon Valley News:
 On the 10th day of May next it will be 35 years since our general mining laws went into effect. Does it not seem strange that something should not have been established in that time whereby the prospector might know whether or not he had performed the necessary amount of labor to constitute legal discovery? for be it known that on this point hangs the individuals right to sever d piece of mineral land from the public domain, namely, a discovery. It is evident that the law was intended to make man dig in the earth for miner als for it says 'In order to develop the mineral resources of the United States, be it enacted d'-then follows the law requiring a discovery. No doubt the most of us will agree that piece of wild land can not be developed into a mine without doing some digging. That being fact, the question is, How much dig ging did the law makers intend to entitle q man to piece of ground-say twenty acres-as reward for his development? That many minds differ as to what amount of digging is necessary IS evi- denced by long line of court decisions on the subject, one of recent date being handed down by the judge of the Third Judicial division to the effect that l3 cents was not necessarily discovery. It seems to me to be correct statement in some instances, but not in all. As an illustration: one man places some gold in muck bank and another takes a pan and washes it out; has there been any development of the mineral re- sources? I would say not. Again: two men sink holes to bedrock; one discov- CTS pay, the other colors; are they not both entitled to reward? Both have developed the mineral resources, and be the results of their efforts much or little they are equally deserving their piece of ground As 1 look at the law, 1t was not intended to reward man for what We term his good luck and punish him for h,s misfortune, but rather to reward him for his honest efforts.
 But to return to the subject of what is a legal discovery: Let me introduce another subject to answer this question. We all know that the law provides that in order to hold an unpatented piece of ground there must be at least one hun

"He is extrayagant and waste
full in the expenditure Of public
money; he entangled US in alli-
ances with foreign nations; he
believes in a world vide expan
sion and the colonization Of all
peoples; he has no conception Of
the fundamental distinction be-
tween the three great divisions of
government; he favors an abso-
lutte and personal government
rather than one regulated by law;
and, finally, my fellow citizens,
he is Federalist Of the most
dangerous character, believing
practically in the obliteration Of
state lines, in the destruction of
the reserved rights for the state
and in the absorption by the
United States of every govern
mental power worthy the name.
Why, his latest expression of
contempt for state authority was
in compelling the sovereign state
of California to surrender sub
stantially to him its fight to reg
ulate its public schools, a right
clearly reserved to it by the Fed
eral constitution, or else be over
run and have its labor conditions
disturbed and demoralized by

coolies. -Harper's Weekly.
