Had a Rouuh Voyaqe.

The French line steamer La Savoie
from Havre, March ., arrived in New
York Sunday after perhaps the most Sc
we're experience of any of the trans-At-
lantic liners that have recently reported
rough weather at sea. On board were
l,04S passengers and crowd better
pleased than they to reach port seldom
hurries down the gang planks.
The La Savoie ran into nasty weather
on the second day out, series of
northwest to west gales increasing in
violence until Thursday, when mon
ster wave swept the main deck and
forced Captain Tournier to bring his
craft to. The steamer drifted eight
hours before the voyage could be safely
resumed.
About eleven o'clock Thursday morn
ing the La Savoie, having safety rid
den number of tall waves, was lying
in the trough of the sea when wave
measuring in the eyes of the crew,
anywhere from As to 60 feet in height,
broke over the ship from the forward
port side.
In second tons of water flooded the
vessel, SCATTERING heavy oak door which
opened into the corridor outside the
smoking saloon. Great volumes of water
rushed in, swept along the corridor and
then poured down the grand stairway
into the main dining saloon. The heavy
iron stairway leading from the main
deck down to the promenade deck was
washed away with the flood. Where
the iron did not snap at the force of the
blow, it was rooted up from the deck
flooring. The glass in the port holes of
the purser's windows was smashed. Oc-
cupants of the smoking room were
thrown from their feet and when upon
recovering themselves they opened the
door to learn what had happened the
water from the corridor rushed in upon
them. Bounding along the floor invad-
ed the cabins and every stateroom where
an open door invited entrance, rising at
points where it temporarily stayed to a
height, it was declared of four feet.
The thrush of water disabled the electric
light system for time and sudden dark
ness further startled the passengers.
Many were bowled over, but beyond a
little wetting none was seriously harmed.

The reason Vinol is so far superior
to old fashioned cod liver oil and
emulsions, is because it is a real cod
liver preparation from which all the
useless oil has been eliminated and
tonic iron added.

out some of the sources from which sufficient revenue to cover the costs of territorial government can be deriv ed without resort to direct property taxation, and that too, without wrong or injustice to anyone, and it now only wishes to impress, if it can, upon those who are trying to convince the public that the people of Alaska are being well and wisely gov erned practically without expense to themselves. that they are pursuing a course the logical sequence of which is more than likely to be deluge of taxation which will fall alike upon the actual bonafde resident property holder and the "solid interests'' in whose behalf they are so extremely so- tous. It was at the suggestion of former governor, construed by impli- cation into special and unselfish rec ommendation, that the present un- equal, unjust and pernicious system of license and occupation taxation was imposed upon Alaska. Let it at once be impressed upon congress-and to- wards that end the contention of the anti-home rulers directly tends-that | Alaska is an able bodied infant being fed, coddled, and wholly supported by the general government practically without expense to itself, and an eX- animation into the real actual ability of the infant either to support itself or to pay for it's support will not be at all strange. In that event, it is easy to predict with some degree of cer- tainty who is most likely to be hurt.
 "Those whom the gods seek to de- stroy they first make mad" There is much food for reflection in that old maxim which The Miner comments to the consideration and digestion oi those who are so consistently distort- ing the truth as to Alaska's financial ability to govern and control her owr local and domestic affairs. If they will but put on their thinking caps and be honest with themselves, they will have no difficulty in arriving al a solution of the problem merely hint ed at. but which is reasonably certain to present itself to congress in the very near future.

 Big political dolngs are on at Skag- way. At meeting held last Saturday night seven delegates were elected tc attend the territorial republican con- vention at Juneau, and resolutions were passed endorsing Tom Gale fol national committeeman and the Roose- welt administration, we don't know what for. Not for appoiting Hoggatt, for it is said that the seven wise dele gates have no oil in their lamps foi the governor.
 If all this amounts to anything, Il is just one thing, and that is that the republicans of the district of Alaski are getting themselves in good shapt for another walloping such as Ton Cale--now q republican it seems helped to give them last year.
 It is good political logic that th' time to nip the aspirations of an office seeker is when he is after something not when he is firmly lodged and par taking of the emolumentS.
 It is hard to understand what inter est Gov Hoggatt may have in th' coming convention unless it is to SC cure an endorsement for his chief Mr. Roosevelt.
 It is also hard to understand wha claims Tom Gale, who was out fight ing the republican ticket last fall, ca now have on the position of nationa committeeman. Douglas News.

Says the Juneau Record concerning tue Skagway republican primary reso- lutions: "Now why declare for the one man who prevents Alaska from obtaining self government and de- nounce the agent of this man for the acts of the principal. There is no question about Alaska obtaining home government if Mr. Roosevelt will only say the word, but he declared in Seat- tie that he would never consent to let a few adventurers who do not make Alaska their home saddle tax upon men who have come to this coun- try and are developing it by investing their money here , The Miner has no recollection of having seen Presi- dent Roosevelt quoted anywhere as having uttered any such language or sentiment while in Seattle. He did, however, say something about men who come to Alaska for the purpose of skinning the country and then get ting out, n and as the actual bona fide residents seem to be most generally the ones who are demanding local self-government, it is easy to desig- nate the class to whom he meant to apply his remarks, as it would be rather hard for those'' who do not make Alaska their home to saddle a tax upon those who have actually come here to live. Mr. Roosevelt, it is safe to assert never said anything that would be so utterly foolish and ridicu- lous, since he knows that people whc do not make Alaska their home would have no voice in the administration Of [ territorial form of government, thougf

LENGTHENING SPAN OF LIFE

Dr. Wiley, chief of the bureau of chemistry, insists that if one dies now adays under q hundred he has himself to blame. It's a line day for health in the United States, the present per- iod According to Dr. Wiley the span of life fifty years ago averaged thirty three years; now it is between thirty five and forty-and much nearer forty.
 This has been brought about in great measure by the scientific treat ment and suppression of disease. The great medical schools of the country are turning out men who are not alone versed in medicine, but who are edu- cated along lines that augment their medical knowledge and add to their efficiency in combating death. The combination of schools of medicine with the university has led to this satisfactory condition of affairs. The outlook of the modern physician is broader than the one of the old school, for his fund of general knowledge is greater and his mental equipment is far more diversified.
 The problem of increasing the length of human life, however, is to be giv- en another advance, if q proposal made by Dr. Wiley is carried out When he was in France recently | ..t, l., int tha manufacture of wines, he discovered the disparity existing between the pure food laws of this and other eoun- tries. Articles for human consump- tion manufactured in the United States and intended for export, in T number Of cases, did net comply with the laws of the country to which they were consigned, although they met fully the legal requirements of the United States Foods manufactured or prepared abroad, ard intended for this country, faced the same difficulty.
 Now it is proposed that a great in- ternational food congress be held, either here or in some European eoun- try, and uniform code be adopted. In this way there would be no clash of laws, and the highest standards could be fixed and maintained by interna- tional cooperation. It is likely that, as an outgrowth of the plan, a board of expert chemists will be created, representing every nation having pure food laws in operation. In this way complaints could be heard promptly and differences adjusted.

THE SKAGWAY RESOLUTIONS
 The resolutions adopted by citizens of Skaeway again emphasize the per- sistent demand of Alaskans for home rule, and they raise another issue which cannot be whistIed down by those vino contend that the northern country is rot yet ready for territo :
 al form of government The resolu- tions "deplore the efforts of the gov ernor 10 discredit the delegate the people of Alaska have elected to con gress, and then declare:
 That the secretary of the interior should rot allow the prestige of the chief executive office of Alaska to be a factor in the lobby at the national capital regardless of whether or not special interests have lent their inllu- ence to his appointment.
 That is an ugly charge to make against Gov. Hoggatt. It n'c2ns, if it means anythng, that the present gov ernor of Alaska has been using the power and influence of his office at the national capital, not to serve the best interests of the people of Alaska, but to pay a political debt to 'speciol interests" which ''lent their in- auence to his appointment. y
 It has been assumed that Gov. Hog gait was sincere and honest in his be- lief that Alaska was not yet ready for a territorial form of government. The Skagway resolutions challenge this assumption.
 This charge cannot be passed over It is deliberately and seriously made by American citizens who are demand ing thelr just constitutional rights. It reflects upon the governor of Alas ka. The authorities at Washington must consider it. The governor of Alaska is supposed to represent the people of Alaska, and if he doesn't the people, he ought not to be governor of Alaska.

 Now who will vouch for this for which we have thus far the unsupport- ed " ord of tho Juneau Record? We have seen nowhere else an intimatioa of Judge Wickersham having been asked by the president to resign his merely
 'recess appointment, which the lat ter could easily have disposed by simp-
 y emitting to send his name to tue Senate. There was no question of con- frmation pending, nor could there be until Judge Wickersham was again nominated to the Senate. Since the last adjournment of that body, he has been holding the judgeship by 'desig- nationn only, not by appointment, and it is hardly likely that the presi- dent would call upon him to resign that designation with the next session of the Senate only two months away After all the talk from North Dakota to Minnesota, all along the line to Washington, D. C., it only took one word from one man to bring call for Judge Wickersham' s resignation. It is easy when you touch that right but ton to accomplish results. Governor Hoggatt, during the last session of congress was the mainstay of Judge Wickersham and saved him from utter defeat, but later the governor with drew his support and finally, sometime during the first of this month, inform ed the, president that he could no longer support him and asked for his removal. By return mail almost, Judge Wickersham was asked for his resignation and hence the press dis patches today announcing results J
 Not quite. The Juneau Dispatch says referring to a contract made by a Juneau firm to handle three hundred thousand shingles made at Wrangell, that 'this mill is the only one in Alaska cutting and putting shingles on the Alaska market. Recently they sent a large shipment to western Alas ka." The Beaver Falls Shingle com pany, of this place, whose mills are in George inlet, has been for a year past manufacturing shingles and sending them, in one or two instances at least, to Jt,neau's next door, besides fully supplying the home demand which is by no means insignificant.

Advices from Pekin are to the effect that the Cinese government resents the ambitious programme of Japan in respect to the conduct of affairs in Manchuria. In this attitude China is said to be receiving the hearty sup port of Russia. The situation is in- teresting and somewhat momentous. There is this amusing feature about it. Had the late war between Russia and Japan resulted differently, China would now, no doubt, be resentin9 Russian aggression in the same terri tory, and appealing to Japan to sup port her in that attitude.

What striking commentary on the decline of American shipping is the announcement from Washington yes treday that there have been but few offers to transport United States coal in United States bottoms. As it is, the navy department, in order to en- able the Atlantic fleet to make the voyage to the Pacific must depend on q supply of Welsh coal carried in Brit ish vessels.

The Chicago Tribune has completed
 a poll of sentiment among Republi- cans in regard to the presidency that
 has covered every state in the Union and in the course of which congress-
 men, state legislators, newspaper edi-
 tors and others who are presumably
 in touch with the feeling of the peo-
 pie have responded to inquiries to the
 extent of several thousands. The ans
 wers show a practical unanimity in
 support of President Roosevelts poli- cies and very general endorsement of the candidacy for president of the
 man who is understood to best repre- sent those policies, Secretary Taft. Secretary Taft was given all but a small share of the first choice votes. After him Governor Hughes of New York appears to have far the largest following. These polls are not, of course, conclusive, but usually they are straws which show the way the wind is blowing. In this case the re- suits check up with Q rather general opinion that Taft is just now the fav- orite in the presidential race and Hughes the strongest man after him, those who have been mention ed in connection with the great office. These men stand out so prominently from the other candidates that it ap- pears that it would be difficult to rec )ncile the rank and file of voters to any man but either of them at the head of the Republican ticket, unless hat man should be President Roose- ,elt himself
