For General Interest
and Educational Value
1t Has Had No Equal at
Any of the Former Ex-
positions.

hibit is found. A great pile of vege-
tables confronts one as the main doors
are passed, and the size, variety and
quality are bewildering. All cereals,
grains and many berries and fruits
grow to perfection, and what the coun-
try of Alaska gives definite promise of
to the tiller of the soil is almost unbe-
lievable.
A corner of the main room is devot-
ed to a magnificent panorama, and,
standing on the raised platform of this,
an Alaskan scene of mountain, valley
and rushing stream, presents picture
of exceptional beauty and vividness.
1t depicts the miner at work amid the
glacier hills, and the changes
OF morning, noon, evening and night
are accomplished in startlingly real
istic manner.
In display cases arranged about the
entire room, are displayed collections
OF Indian implements and specimens of
their crude art, which cannot be du-
pllcated even in the territory itself.
Arts and crafts which flnurished wears
ago have become obsolete and forgot
ten, and such specimens as remained at
the advent of the white man have been
mostly lost or destroyed. Of these the
only known examples in existence are
those secured by the early settlers who
were provident enough to become COL
lectors in modest way. The exposi-
ton exhibit contains these specimens
gathered from every corner of Alaska
and Yukon. The educational advance
ment of the Indian is demonstrated by
work from the many public schools,
and constitutes valuable exhibit. It
has been gathered with the utmost care
and Judgment and from it can be
CLEANED q splendid idea Of what the
little school house is accomplishing in
developing the people native to the
land Of the midnight sun.

AIdSkd'S Exhibit;

The exhibit of the territory of Alas
ka, shown at the Alaska Yukon Pacific
opposition, has for genuine interest and
educational valne never been excelled
by former exposition. The enormous
building erected by the federal govern
ment for the purpose of exploitation of
the northern territory is crowded with
a collection of articles representing ev-
cry source of wealth of the land. The
products along agricultural lines, the
results OF the fisheries, the forests,
the minerals, the ethnology of north
ern aboriginee and the flora and fauna
are deliberately represented
AS gold was the loadstone breaking
down the barriers of the Arctic coun-
try, so it is one Of the magnets of the
exhibit buildings of the exposition; the
grim steel cage in the center of the
fioor shows a cleaning pile of gold
bricks, nuggets and dust, taken from
the placer deposits of our northern pos
sessions. Visitors eagerly watch the
dull flash of light over the yellow sur
face, and on leaving are almost sure to
return for last look before quitting
the building.
Gold in quartz, in the sand of the
river banks and beds and yet bearing
the precious metal, represent all the
different sections of the land; the ma
chinery and methods of separating it
from the earth and rock are shown and
the operation explained.
The baser minerals are all found in
Alaska and they are fully displayed;
anthracite and petroleum. from the dis
trlcts about Katella show the most val
liable deposits known on earth. Iron.
copper, anthony and the many metal
producing rocks are all exhibited and
with them are lucid explanations and
descriptions from government officials.
It is in the agricultural way, how
ever, that the great surprise Of the ex-

Helena, Mont, July 10 There has
oeen nled with the secretary of state an
omcial resolution adopted by the board
OF directors of the Great Northern rail-
way showing its purpose to construct
branch line from Poplar Valley

is that line will be extended further
north, tapping the grain fields of the

Many Texas Saloons Closed

Austin, Texas, July 12-At midnight
Saturday more than 100 saloons in
Texas closed doors because of the COM

all liquor licenses issued after Febru-

FrOWn for Fraternities

One section of the report of the
committee on resolutions maintained
that the high school fraternity should
be abolished. The ani-fraternity
clause went through without amend
ment, after a skirmish. Henceforth,
therefore, the fraternity will meet
with official frowns in the high school.
The fraternity clause brought out
more resolutions, each of which prov

SIIFFRACEPROPOSAL GIVEN
MERRY HAHA BY Ed
UCATORS.
Tackled on to Proposal for Citizen
ship For Porto Ricans and Fill
pin0s at National Educational
COnventiOn-Next Convention
to Meet in San Francisco.

Denver, Colo, July 10.-San Fran
of the National Educational Associa-
ton. The board of directors of the
association, breaking precedent in the
respect that conventions heretofore
never have been either East or West
twice in success sion, decided to hold
the next association gathering on the
Pacific coast.
The militant spirit of independence
burst forth when Edwin G. Dexter,
commissioner Ofeducation for Porto
Rico, offered resolution urging that
congress be asked to confer citizen
ship upon the people of Porto Rico.
But Mr.. Dexter emphasized too
strongly the word citizenship, for i'm
mediately delegate from Alabama
arose and proposed to tack on little
sugges ton about freedom for the Fill
ipinO.
Immoderate "Ha Has," which met
this proposition, did not deter another
exponent of freedom from offering a
straw of relief to what she termed a
"down-trodden" element. This was
Miss Mary Shirley, of California.
Pities the Down TrOdden
'sNow if there is going to be any
freedom advocated here" she said, Il
want to make another amendment.
If the savages of Porto Rico and of
the Philippines are going to get sup
port here I want the voice of this
ass ociation to be raised in behalf of
those who deserve it most-the wo-
men of the United States
This was too much. When the
Porto Rico resolution came out it was
at least taken seriously. When the
Filipino clause was added, it brought
smile, but the "votes for women"
proposition caused a roar of laughter
which was the signal for it's burial
by the ballot.
The election of James Yadkin JOY
ner, superintendent of public instruc-
ton of North Carolina, as president of
the National Educational Association
this afternoon led up to a series of
parliamentary situations that threat
ened for a time to rend the inner
circle of the association
Mr.. Joyner was elected on the Sec
ond ballot and his rise to the presi-
dency was the cause for qualification
on the part of the enemies of the So
called book trust

WAR ON BOIL WEEVIL.
Early Destruction of the Cotton
Stalks Advocated.

The following article on the exter-
miuation OF the bell weevil written
by Prof. s. A Knapp. special agent
OF the department OF agriculture in
charge OF the farmers cooperative
demonstration work. gives important
information on The methods OF tight
ing the pest:
Without question one of the most
important things to be done in re
ducing the number OF weevils SO that
a crop of cotton can successfully be
made IS TO destroy the stalks in the
fall, not later than the 10th of Oeto-
Der if possible
This has been so fully demonstrate
ed by the Bureau of Entomology
that it does not require discussion
here. The practical difficulty has
been that in most years the cotton
was mauIrcd 50 late that it was inn
possible 10 get anything like a coz
certed movement among the farmers
to destroy the cotton stalks early
enough to be OF much value, This
fall is an exception. La the entire
cotton belt the cotton Is maturing
SO rapidly that it will be impossibl Z
/ for the farmers To make a general
movement 10 destroy the stalks. i
! Is OF omparativels small value. j
50 lar as the general effect IS con
cerned. for lew farmers to carr,
out this policy. but if it is possible
| TO induce 50 many farmers TO enter
into the movement that it practicaHs
becomes universal, SO many weevil.
