Alaska should be an independent land district, separate from the en- eral land office at Washington, with it's officers answerable only to the sec- retary of the interior, argues one of the best known men in Alaska, a tor mer high official, in letter to resi- dent of Valdez. He does not add, though that was doubtless in his thought, that this Alaska land bureau should have it's headquarters on Alaska ground, at the territorial capital.
 In discussing his proposal the writer refers to the antiquated methods of the general land office and the fact that it is filled up, like all the bureaus at Washington, with superannuated clerks who are in reality mere pen sioners. He suggests that the general land office knows nothing of Alaska

Oil company of which Maj. Lowell is manager. He is expected to arrive on the Lindsay sailing about May l2, with new oil rig while the Cunning ham oil rig will also be placed in commission at Mirror slough where Foreman Eccles already has force of men preparing for the seasons work.
 The Northern Oil company will also begin drilling in short time, using the rig of the Anglo American con- pany now located at Bering lake, which has been leased by the North ern Oil company. President Auld of the company, A. c. McClarty and an oil drilling crew are expected to ar rive on the Bertha.
 News received by the Bertha is to the effect that Robert D. Gray, has sold for $5, GOO block of oil land on Mirror slough, receiving $500 as first payment. -Katella Herald.

Walter Eli Clark needs no introduce tion to the people of Alaska. No one has better knowledge of the terri tory its resources, its people and it's needs than the man who has been selected by President Taft to succeed Mr. w. B. Hoggatt as governor of Alaska.
 Mr Clark's selection was without his knowledge and without personal solicitation or application for any office. It was due to a recognition of his thorough equipment personal pop ularity with Alaskans of all occupa- tions and political factions and to his own marked ability and modestm crit.
 For ten years Mr. Clark has voiced the aspirations and desires of every Alaskan who has visited the nations al capital. He has visited Alaska on sev eral occasions and is recognized as the best posted man there on the sub ject of the territory so much 50 that his stores of information were often drawn upon by Secretary Hitchcock and it may be said that President Roosevelt has asked him if he would accept the appointment with which President Taft has honored him.
 Mr. Clark is the soul of honor, has marked executive ability and will ad minister his office with credit to him. self and to the satisfaction of the peo- pie of A laska and may be depended on to know no favorites and to make no improper discrimination in exercising his functions. He is the right type of man for the post. For ten years he has been the Washington correspondent of the Post -Intelligencer and is familiar with legislation and with depart mental work. Few men who have served at the capital are so well equipped as he. His acquaintanceship with senators and congressman is wide and intimate. His recommen- datons will be listened to with respect by the nations lawmakers, and he may be depended on to represent the whole of Alaska.
 The newspaper rejoices in Mir. Clark's honor, but it regrets his ap- pointment, for we lose truthful, faithful and able correspondent. Alaska gains good governor.-Seat- tie P. I.

The smoke nuisance in cities seems to be not only burning question but question of buruing-of com bsution. A bulletin just published by the United States Geological Survey may be summarized as follows:
 Smoke prevention is possible. There are many types of furnaces and stokers that are operatedsmOkelessly
 Any one kind of apparatus is effective only if so set under boilers that the principles of com bustion are respected, The value of this requirement. to the average purct aser lies in the fact that he is thus reasonably certain of good installation. A good stoker of furnace we'll set Good installation of furnace equipment is necessary for smoke prevention.
 Stokers or furnaces must be set so that combustion will be complete be- fore the gases strike the heating sur face of the boiler. When partly burned gases at temperature of say, 2,500 deg. F. strike the tubes of boiler at 350 deg. F. combustion IS necessarily hinderd and may be entirely arrested. The length of time required for the gases to pass from coal to the heating surface probably averages considerably less than enc second, fact which shows that the gases and air must he intimately mixed when large volumes of gas are distilled, as at times of hand firing, or the gas must be dis titled uniformly, as in a mechanical stoker. By adding mixing structures to mechanical stoker equipment both the amount of air required for combustion and the distance from the grates to heating surface may be re- duced for the same capacity developed. The necessary air supply can also be reduced by increasing the rate of con- bustion.
 No type of stoker is equally valuable for burning all kinds of coal. The plant which has the equipment pro- perly designed to burn the cheapest coal available will evaporate water at

 What with projected railroad con- struction, local develo- .ment and drill ing for oil Katella proimses to be the distributing center for quite busy and extensive section, this season.
 There have been so many disappoint- men ts as to railroad development, that local interest is now centered chiefly in oil land development. Since the somewhat sensational oil discovery on Mirror slough, last fall, was told by The Herald. outside interest in the oil fields of this region, has been steadily increasing, and the promise now is that at least three oil rigs will be in active operation within a short time. Two of these will be located at Mirror slough by the Alaska Coal

and probably never will until a difer- ent class of men are employed in it. When Secretary Ballinger was conl- missioner of the general land office he cleared out little rubbish but the handicap of departmental inertia is too great to permit swift reform.
 The writer also urges the advant- age that would accrue to Alaska in the saving of time if its public lands were managed entirely by officials living on the ground and the work now done by the general land office at Washington were turned over to local office hay ing the same power. The writer says l:
 "Alaska has too small population made up of families and permanently settled. Why is it? l beliveve because the country has been unsurveyed there has been no incentive to take up lands even by the people who have been in the country and have some notion that they could do. Not so with our neighb1rs. They prepared Alberta, Saska tchewan and Manitoba and have their governmental agents in Kansas City, St. Paul. Boston and other northern cities and are getting thous- ands of American fami lies and mil l lions of United States money. It is my belief that large part of Alaska on account of its variety of resources and its home market would be pre- | ferable. But it is almost absurd to | tell them of it when Canada is ready and makes it so easy for them too. Il we bave separated land districts fine body of young surveyors will step into the work and year by year the appro. priations will be provided as matter of course. Along with such legislation for such separation from the land office at Washington there should be libera reservations equal to and perhaps greater that were provided in other territories for colleges and univers ities. Alaska cannot go ahead until i gets the right kind of population to own it's soil.
 l have not been in sympathy witt the reservation policy toward Alaski during the last administration or witt the obstruction policy toward those who in good faith under the coal lant laws were developing and trying t' get the coal market. On this poin I simply tell what the retail price 0 coal has been in Valdez which is no far removed from the best coal meas ures on the Pacific coast. t.-Valde, | Prospector.

A camera has been invented and is now used by Boston policemen, which promises much in ths way of accur- atey determining the speed of auto- mobilists. It contains two plate e-hold- CTS, one above the other, with a stop- watch between the two. The operator takes his place within focusing dis tance, of the road, and when the auto- mobile is at certain distance, the upper pllte is exposed. This takes a picture of the position of the automo- bile on the road and also records the face of the stop watch, showing just where the hand is at the second the picture is snapped. The camera is then turned at a certain angle up the road, and second picture is snapped. This also records the face of the stOp- watch, showing how much time has elapsed between the first and second exposures and also gives the position of the au- tomohile on the road. By matbema- tical calculation the exact distance travelled by the automobile is secured and the stopt- watch shows the exact time that transpired between the first and second exposure. From this the speed of the automobile is securd.

 Although hand fired furnaces can be operated without objectionable smoke, the fireman is so variable factor that the ultimate solution of the problem depends on the mechanical stoker- in other words the personal element must be eliminated.

How eggs came to be such feature
Of Easter celebrations is said TO be
