WHAT ALASKA GIVES AND
 GETS
(F"-l ,ut-Ilipcucci

In an address delivered before the national irrigation congress at Alhu- qu"rquc the director of the United States geological survey spoke of the surveys work in Alaska; "nowhcrc, " he said, has the survey made q bet tCrrcCOrd," and he added: "Thc liter aturc on Alaska of value to mining is almost wholly of survey authorship; yet the explorations represented by th"s" reports and maps have involved an expenditure of less than half a million dollars, or only onc-half of 1 per cent. of the gold output of Alaska for the same period, not to mcntion the Increasing production of coal and copper. Few taxes are as light as this -
 The statement is perfectly fair, and it will again direct attention to the fact that Alaska gives this nation great deal in material wealth. and in return therefor gets very little from the nation.
 Perhaps tho most important service rendered Alaska is the work of the geological survey. Ficldmcn in this service have gathered wealth of data concerning the resources of Alaska, and this information, printed and scattered over the country, has been of very grea; benefit to Alaska. No doubt the survey, by encouraging individual explorations, is responsi- ble for many of the devclopmcntal activities in the northern country, and certainly the service has more than paid it's own way.
 If the federal government would give Alaska q proper constitutional status, so that the citizens of the northern country could enjoy the ben efits and blessings of home rule, de. yclopment would be very much more rapid, and the return to tho nation in material wealth would be very much larger.

TENNESSEE Is IN
 STATE 0F TURMOIL

Hamburg, Tenn, Oct 24-Night riders, angered at Governor Patter- son because of his insistence that their actions be investigated. have made open threats against the gover- nor's life. The gubernatorial man. sion is surrounded by strong cordon of state troops, and he is at all times protected by personal guard.
 The conditions consequent upon the outrages recently committed by the night riders have become very serious. It is believed that many of the most prominent citizens of the state are members of the riders, and the stand taken by the governor has caused consternation in their ranks.
 Governor Patterson has declared that he is not to be intimidated, and that he purposes putting a stop to the depredations of the riders. even if such course necessitates placing in custody half the population of the state. He has ordered the state's peace officers to assemble evidence, and also has appointed several special agents who report directly to him.

SAMPLES ORIGINAL
 ROGUE" IS SENTENCED

Seattle, Oct. 24-Kid Young, Seat tle,s original rogue" was yesterday afternoon in San Francisco sentenced to five years in the federal prison and to pay a fine of $500. Young's offense was the robbery of a sub-post office station in the Bon Marche, July 1s, 1907, he taking book of blank money orders.
 Kid Young was recently arrested in San Francisco, charged with forging names on some of the blanks. The federal grand jury sitting in the Cali fornia city brought in twelve counts against him.
 Young, or the man alleged to be Young, appeared at the Bon Marche sub-station and purchased a money order for a small amount. While the clerk was filling out the money order the man obtained possession of a book of the orders only partly used. He then slipped out of the store.
 From that time until she arrest, three weeks ago, the postoffice in- spectors have been worried through the receipt of score or more of bogus money orders cashed at small postoffices throughout the western slope.
 When arrested in San Francisco Young had more than 100 blank orders in his pocket. It is estimated that he stole more than 320 blank orders from the Bon Marche sub station.
 Young was once before on trial in San Francisco charged with parti ci- pating in the theft of s23,000 worth of diamonds. He was acquitted, how ever, although he hae been closely watched by the police ever since.
 Kid Young is we'll known to the older members of the local police force and his picture is the first to adorn the departments rouge gallery.

COURT DECIDES IN
 FAVOR IF TEMPLE:

S. A. Temple won temporary vic tory yesterday in the defense of the action brought against him by T. P. Stamey, who seeks to recover $25 ,OOO damages as the result of Hemple's alleged failure to carry out the terms of a mining deal. The case was argued on demurrer, the court sus- Saining the contention of Edmund Smith and John Lyons that the stat ute of fraud prevents the action from being maintained.
 One of the provisions of the statute of frauds is that any agreement ap- pertaining to the sale of lands is void unless made in writing, which the agreement in the Temple case was not. Attorney J. Y. Ostrander, how over, believes that the agreement valid is because the provisos of 1t were to some extent carried out, and on be- half of Stamey he will take the case into the circuit court of appeals.
 The action against Temple grows out of the fact that he held an option to purchase for $25, 1000 certain mining property located down the sound, and owned by Stamey and others. Hem- pie gave $5,O00 for his option, but when the option expired could not finance the deal, and was given an extention of time, provided that he would do the assessment work. Stamey alleges that this assessment work was not done and that in con- sequence the property reverted to the government, hence the action for damages.
 The property in question has been relocated by Ed. Reed, who is now doing the assessment work.
 Incidently, Mir. Temple declares that he was In the transaction acting in behalf of the Hubbard and Elliott people. as their agent. ..

 BRYAN STATEMENT

Evansville, Ind, Oct. 24-Candi- date Taft, in speeches delivered here last night and this forenoon, heaps ridicule upon the Bryan statement to the effect that the republicans arc trying to bribc the labor vote. Mr. Taft declared that hard times will follow the election of the democratic candidate and that knowing this the laboring man does not have to be bribed. M,. Taft asserted that the bribery statement is a deliberate at tempt to deceive, and he expressed the belief that it will fail of it's pur- pose because of the fact that the American workman has too much good sense to be misled by any such subterfuge.
 Mir. Taft declared that the repub- hcan party is asking for support on the broad ground of it's own record, as compared with the record of the dem ocratic candidate. Mir.

MIDDLE WEST |S
 STORM ASSA|LED

Winnipeg, Oct. 24-Eastern Canada is today in the grasp of the worst snow storm in the history of the mid dle west. From advices received here it is understood that the storm prevails in the United States along the Canadian line, and that conditi- ons are ss bad if not worse than those prevailing here.
 The storm has badly crippled traf- fic on the Great Northern and on the Canadian Pacific lines. Trains are stalled for miles along either road, and all the snow blows available are out endeavoring to keep the line open until the passenger trains arrive in some town or other.
 It is showing heavily at this time, and strong wind is adding to the difficulties. In places the snow is five feet deep on the level, and along miles of railroad right-of-way the snow has drifted to height of in some places twenty feet.

WOMAN: REFRACTORY

Tacoma, Oct. 24-Impatient woman, refractory fire and a can of coal oil formed a time-honored combina- tion that this morning resulted in the death of Mrs. Sarah Cory, tho partial destruction of her residence, and q quick hustling from beds on the part of members of the fire department. Mrs. Cory arose little late and the fire she kindled in the cook stove burned very slowly. Other methods of coaxing proved unavailing and Mrs. Cory seized can containing coal oil second later there was an explo- sion which hurled portions of the stove through the roof, and sent Mrs. Corey flying into the street with her cloth ing ablaze.
 Neighbors came to the wom m, 8 assistance but she died in few min utes. Several fire engines arrived and after little trouble saved the most of the house. ..

THE PRESIDENTIAL WAY

Only recently President Roosevelt, taking heed of that public opinion holding the action of president in attempting to dominate the politics of his party to have little of dignity, made announcement that from hence forth he would conduct himself along lines more in compOrt with his posi- ton, and less of danger to his candi- date. However, being of that make requiring activity for satisfaction, even as babe requires milk for sus- tcnance, the president has found his promise irksOmc beyond his powers of fortitudc.
 Bryan, having less of position to maintain the dignity of, has seen no need of bridlc for his tongue; Com, pcrs has served his followers with hope-fceding promise hanging upon democratic success at the polls; and to defend the party of Taft and the cause of Taft there is necessity too h"ckOning for the president to abide him upon promise of silence.
 Quick scanning of the situation con NiEccs th" presidential acumcn that rctutation k demanded. But mindful ot the promise he hcsitatcs to call to his aid the representatives of the pres, for the presidential realization tells him that in SO doing h" elects himself tO membership in the club he brought into being. So, ever rcso urcc- ful the president indicts him q letter to his good friend Senator Knox, wherein k expressed the presidential opinion of Bryan, Gompcrs ctal,
 Now, what course does the nimblc Knox pcrsucth? Does he regard the presidential communication as sacred? No, the nimblc Knox, who, when he receives the presidential letter is in Washington, in which city the letter was written, bctrays the presidential confidence, and, that the public may h" benefited, causes the letter to be published.
 Lest there be those who in pity wait for the presidential wrath to fall upon the head of patriot Knox, the nimblc who betrayed, let it be re- marked that there be many manners in which Satan may be blacksnaked until he circle that portion of the tree closest the earth

D|ER|NGER MINE .
 HAS l2-FOOT VE|t

An ore body twelve feet wide, and which has been drifted on for fifteen feet, has been encountered on the Mogul claim of the properly of the Knights Island Copper Mining Com pany. The strike was m ade about Q week ago, and Joseph Deirin ger, president of the company, returned yesterday after eight days spent on the property, highly elated at the fu- ture prospects of tho mine.
 Mir. Deiringer says that the ore body in question was struck at a dis tance of IA feet in from the begin ming of the tunnel. No assay has been made but MT. Deiringer feels certain that the ore will run at least s per cent, and he will not be sur prised if it runs higher. In the tun- nel in which it was found, the ore body is about 100 feet down, but this tunnel is only being run for prospect ing purposes and the ore body will be about 700 feet down when tapped by the working tunnel.
 On his return trip Mir. Deiringer went through an experience with the elements that for while drove from his mind all thought of copper mines The little launch N X s was roughly handled by the storm, but after g long struggle succeeded in making shelter, where less boisterous weath- CT was awaited.

frequently become bitter and cause
personal hostilitles which last for

bitterness OF primary contests, but 1t
fs not believed that 1t Is as intense
and lasting as that generated by the
direct personal friction OF conven-
ton. In short II u convention Is the
best method OF selecting candidate,
why Is 1t not the best method OF elect
ing an officer? Yet no civilized coun-
try selects its popular officers except
by an election. Indeed. 1t Is difficult
TO see why any objection which lns

made with equal force to an election.
The question of expense may be con-
sidcred as not applying to regular

not an Inherent feature OF the pr-

there Is high authority for saying that
