1t has been decided that its advantages
are so considerable as to make ii desira-

BILE to abandon coal In the smaller craft.
1t is probable that there is one simple
explanation of the change in admiralty
policy. The British empire has very
limited resources of oil fuel and pres
ent the supplies Of the navy have TO be
obtained from abroad. These supplies
may be cut off in time Of war and there
fore. the admiralty is compelled to sink
considerable capital in reserve stores OF
fuel.
The British navy already possesses a
large number of ships which make large
demands for oil fuel. All the later capital
ships of the navy carry oil fuel, in add-
ton to coal. and for some years past all
torpedo craft have been fitted exclusively
for the use of liquid fuel. Apparently
the admiralty has decided that in view
of the present limited sources of supply
and their liability to interference II is
an act of craftsmanship not to commit
the navy further in this direction. There
is every reason to hope that in the near
future additional SUPPLIES of oil fuel will
be available within the British empire,
and then presumably the admiralty will
revert once more to its use in new ships.

It was probably the the studious design of those who had 1t in charge to keep 1t obscure, and for the very good reason that the rldicule 1t would have excited, if it had been brought prominently to pub lie notice. would have killed it.

KEEP THE KIDNEYS WELL
Health Is Worth Saving, and Some Alaskan People Know How
 to Save lt.

Many Alaskan people take their lives in their hands by neglecting the kidneys when they know these organs need help. Sick kidneys are respons- ible for a vast amount of suffering and i'll health, but there is no need to suffer nor remain in danger when all diseases and aches and pains due to weak kidneys can be quickly and permanently cured by the use of Deans Kidney Pills. The following statement leaves no ground for doubt.
 Arthur Rocks, 412 Duane St., As toria. Ore, says: "I suffered severe Iy from kidney trouble and rheuma- tlsm. There were pains in my back, shoulders and limbs and at times ] was so lame that I could not stoop to lace my shoes. My kidneys were weak and the secretlOus became very unnatural. At last a friend recom- mended Doans Kidney Pills so highly that procured a box and began their use. They helped me from the first and it was only a short time before I was entirely free from my kidney complaint"

THE APPOINTMENT WILL SHOW.

When President Taft selects for the supreme court of the United States the successor to the late Rufus W. Peckham, the action more than any thing else will afford a chance to judge Taft himself. Wm he appoint a man of broad and liberal teuden- cles? or will he choose for this proud and important position man who will be in sympathy with the re-acuOnists, who win have Ieauings toward the ccr poratlons and the 'Tnterests?"
 Taft will probably have the appoint, meut of two supreme judges. for Jus tice Moody IS and has been for some time in a serious state of illness. Justices of the supreme court are ap- pointed for life. They have more real Influence upon the evolution and de-  yeIopment Of our national affairs than the president and congress, for all legIslat ye laws and executive actions must be submitted to them on the test Of constttutiouality. They decide the status of the rights of labor yer sus capital in the complex cases that are constantly cropping out as the re- suit Of new conditions. The judicial power Of the supreme court extends to foreign treaties. to controversies between states. all cases affecting am bassadOres and ministers. admiralty and marine Jurisdiction. and all cases Of law and equity.
 Probably the appointment Of a sue cessor to Justice Peckham will be Tafrs most important action. It mat. ters but little In the long run that Taft signed the tariff bin. It delayed mat ters for four years, but tariff reform is certain to come and not all the power of standpatism can keep down the rising tide. But once appointed, & supreme court justice holds office for life. He cannot be removed save for gross mlsbehaylor. In the past there has been criticism Of the supreme court upon the ground that Its Rem- bers on the whole are not sufficiently progressive. not enough in touch with the times; that they had decidedly capltaHsuc tendencies. This criticism may or may not be justified, but 1t is idle Go deny that 1t is ihe opinion CT the majority of the people of the United States and recent supreme court decisions auent labor questions have cost the court the couI'ue"Se OA thousands of laborIng men.
 We have heard much of the Taftian judicial temperament. Here is the Presidents opportunity to show his innate tendencies. We know the type of man Roosevelt would have elevated to the supreme bench. What manner Of man win Taft select? Will he be broad guaged and progressive? or will he be a man immersed in legal lore, inculcated with the idea Of the divine rights of property and capital?
 The country is awaiting the choice. We are interested.
