Thoughtful men sead the products Of his pen and were moved by the force Of his arg gments. He was never superficial. His mind seemed to grasp the prln- clples which shape events. and no matter what the outward appearances were. or what others saw, he looked beyond. and with the ultimate good always In view. wrote his convictions without fear
 SIr. swineiord wanted the greatest measure Of self government for Alas, ka. He wanted 1t here because ex- perience had shown him taat those countries which enjoy the greatest political liberty lrg the most blessed among the natlous of the earth.

HOW A HORSE GALLOPS.

The Natural Way and the Conventional
 Pose In Art.
 How does a horse gallop? Owing to the rapldlty of action it cannot be seen by the human eye. However, just as the individual spoEes of a rapidly re- voIviDr wheel can be made visible by a flash of lightning, so the action of gallopIng horse can be and has been analyzed by instantaneous photogra- phy.
 The statuette of Sysonby, the thor oughbred. has been made from photo graphs taken at the instant when all four legs are or the ground. The back is orcbed. the hind feet are directed forward. the fore feet backward, so that all are tucked under the animals body.
 When the limbs again touch the ground the first to do so is one ot the hind feet. which is thrust far forward so as to form an acute angle with the line of the body and thus serve the purpose of a spring iD breaking the force of the Impact of the hoot when the horse is going at top speed.
 In the conventional mode of repre- senting a gallopjng horse all four legs are or the ground at once, but the front pair are extended backward m such 8 way that the undersurfoces of near the ground This conventional l pose appears to have been derived from dog running, when thc front and ! hind pairs Of legs are respectively eN. 1 tended forward and backward, with the soles of the hind feet turned up, ward
 This pose it is thought, was adopt, ed to represent the gallop of the horse by the goldsmiths of Myccuac between 500 and 1000 B.

rAg PRESIDENTS POSITION.

The news that President Taft is op- posed to a territorial form of govern meut for Alaska came somewhat in the nature of a bombshen explosion in It's suddenness. For some time past many Alaskaus had fondly deluded themselves in the hope that the cleo ton Of Taft. with his predispositIon Co deal out justice eQuably and fairly, would bring a surcease Of troubles under which we labor.
 or course. there Is a great deal to be said for MT. Tafts side of the argument and he cannot be accused O, having taken his present stand on Alaskan affairs hurrIedly. He has given the subject deep study. While 4 is admitted that the people Of Al sska would be placed under a heavy burden Of expense by territorial form of government. We tau to see how The organic law suggested would allow the larger eenters of population tc dominate the smaller ones, as the EN scutlye claims. any more than is the case in any state in the Union.
 Being a lawyer Of no mean ability Wa should have thought that Presi dsnr Taft would have known that Ala: where che American consutuuou ua NOT followed the American Flag. On or the principles laid down by ou foreGathers. shortly after their yIctorl in the Revolutionary War. was tha there should be No taxation with out representation. Yet today Al askaus are In precisely the same posi- ton as were the American colonIsts before the tea party episode in Bos ton Harbor.
 Every man has a right to a voice in the making Of the laws which he must obey. It Is one of the inalien. sOle rights of every free American cit izeu. It is true that his right of yoic may not always be wisely exercised and it Is equally true that the ben eilts derived therefrom are often of a minus value. But it is his RIGHT just the same.
 Now the question confronting Alas. katoday Is: "Is the right Of elect ing a Legislature and making laws to suit your conditions worth to you what 1t will cost?"
