ANNA. AND 4 CRISIS DIVERTED

On, what if it had been true that Anna Gould bad brought the prince with her-whac crisis would have been brought about, We are liberty loving people here in the United States aud we liSs to give all citizens as full swing as possible. Bat fl Anna had brought the prince then the count, her late husband, would probably have come also ou his own account, or on hers, or on his-the princes. Th2n those sceres which even the French capital looked askance at would likely have been repeated on Broadway. The count would have met the prioce and oae dares not think of it. We are @ liberty loYing people but we cannot stand for everything. Anna has done well not to bring the prince, When Anna had the count for her very own she had much to put up with aCd there was a certain amount of sympathy for her-wi5h those that are disposed, as is the Alaskan, toward real charity. But when, having successfully shunted the count, we still discover that she does not know what constitutes enough, then Chrrity becomes faint hearted aud Faith and Hope step on her toes as she seeks a seat further back.

Those men who set out with such naive bravery to circle the earth in automobiles, have been getting expe- rlence, Already they have been made sick of the undertaking presented by the muddy and snOw-bOund roads of the middle west, and are by them forced to seek the sunny ways that lead to Los Angeles rather than continue westward on line so far north as San Francttco. That, so worsted in their struggle with the roads of the settled states, they still come with confidence to Alaska is a compliment that must not go un- noted.
