ALASKA NEEDS RAIL LyAYS

Alaska with more than 100000 square
square miles of territory, has virtually
100000 square miles untouched by the
explorer says the Chicago Tribune. Yet
in 1908 il produced almost 100000
worth Of minerals. s1s.Ooo,OOO OF which
was gold.
Lack Of transportation in the Ter
ritory is the greatest factor keeping
back its development. In these 100000
square miles there are only 452 miles
of wagon road, S79 miles of sled road,
and 255 miles of improved trails. Il
has only 300 miles of railroad, con-
siderable portion of which is out Of
repair and idle, and only so miles Of
new road was built in 1908.
The cost of transportation has made
It impossible to work any but the
richest of mineral deposits in many
sections Of the country. Supplies
must be furnished the mining COM
munities. and except in those remote
camps where the gold deposits are ex-
tremely rich, difficulties Of transporta-
tion make supplies prohibitive. Alaska
is ripe for a new era in transporta-
ton facilities.

NEVER SAW A WOMAN

George Randolph, of a little mining
claim somewhere in the interior of
Northern British Columbia. went to
Seattle recently. says the Chicago
journal. George is eighteen years of
age. and until he wal.Sed aboard of
the steamer TO leave the north he had
never seen a woman. His father and
he lived alone in the north, far from
civilization. When a mere babe his
mother sickened and died in the great
woods, and was buried by her hus-
band and his partner. Almost insane
from grief. the ather cared for the
baby boy and watched him grow into
robust man.
Toiling year after year in the canons
prospecting for gold, neither the father
nor son touched the borders of civili-
zatiOn. Their supplies were purchased
with furs from traders. This last
spring they made rich strike and
resolved to leave their isolated home.
When the young Randolph reached
the little town on the seacoast to board
a boat he called to his father to tell
him what those beautiful creatures
were walking on the deck. He de-
clares that women are the most
beautiful things he has ever seen, and
believes his mother must have been
one Of the most beautiful.

Mr.. H0iAN CONN. .NTS
ON TEN tRANCE ORATORS

Editor THE EVENING JOURNAL;
When read the statements made by
Mrs Lake and j.. NJ. Arters, relative
TO the question ] put TO Mrs. Lake Ia
last Mondays EVENING JOURNAL,
was amazed at the ambiguity ex-
pressed.
Mrs. Lake is quoted as having said;
mr. Hogan has no right 70 demand
from me Information concerning the
amount Of crime committed in Sussex
county,"
Note the evasiyeness conscious or
othcrwise) in the word Information"
] did not demand Information"
What I did demand was that Mrs.
Lake answer the charge why Sussex
county is facing the greatest criminal
record the history of the county ever
knew" and my pre-eminent right 20
make this demand lies in the fact that
that lady assisted In putting Sussex
county dry under the plea that crime
would decrease there If the saloon
were abolished.
Mrs. Lake did not answer my ques-
tion unless the ''left-handod" lily be
taken for such, but J. NJ. Arters at
tempted to answer--in this way:
Admitting that there we're 81
prisoners In Sussex county jail. five
of them were arrested for selling
whiskey, and is of them were from
the town of Seaford Dust as though
Seaford was In France or Flandcrs),
mostly tramps. some of them arrested
by railroad detectives, some OF them
belonging 10 a large floating element
Of whites and negroes who have come
from Virginia and Maryland, TO work
In the cannery"
The above reminds me Of a palm
reader--one of the faSirs who are after
the coin-when he says, while examin-
ing the hand of a subject "This line,
on the Plain of Luna, forecasts sue
cess I'm love and finance, provided. Of
course that this line. under the Mount
of Saturn, does not exercise a neutral
izing effect, leaving conditions the
same, or a little worse"
Here Is a transposition that sets
forth a similltude.
The prohibition agiiator. while ex-
amining the conditions existing in Del
aware. says; This line. prohibition in
Sussex county. forecasts better condi-
tions. provided. Of course, that this
line. the large white and negro ele-
ment who comes into Sussex county
does not exercise an influence. thus
leaving conditions as they are. o.
little worse-by buying whislSey in
Sussex county-"dry' territory Why
don't prohibition prohibit2
OF course whislSey can be bought
in Sussex or Kent. in Kansas or Maine.
and, in conclusion would say: Mis-
souri, is not yet rid of saloons. md
