ROMANCE AND REALITY.

The maiden watched by her cottage door for her lover, who came to her side no more. Such stories as this have the poets told. since the world Nas young that has now grown cid, and the maids forSaken all dropped and died. and over their touches the bleak winds sighed; or, peradventure. they lived for years, and sloshed around ankle-deep in tears, leading \ life that was sad and strange, like Mary Ann in her Moated Grange. Oh. bushels of stories like this are found. of maidens poisoned and maid ems drowned, or msidens breeding in darkened halls, with tumbling turrets and moldy walls; and ghosts Of maid ems whose loves broke up, are thick as fleas on a yellow pup. The maid en watched by her cottage door, for her lover, who came to her side no more: and she did not rail. and she did not seoff. but gently murmured: The stuff Is off! I've drawn a lemo in my bold Knight; for breach of promise Tn cInch him tight. So off I'll hie to the court alone, and soak him for many a golden bone!"-walt Mason.

TO ROAST OR NOT TO ROAST.

Y'ot to roast this, or y'ot to roast that, are the most frequently used terms of advice that a newspaper man receives. If We should roast ev- erything that somebody thinks needs 1t, there would be a killing In this office with nobody left to write up the virtuous deeds of the dear de parted. A newspaper is not intended to serve as a vehicle wherein to ex- press wrath and vituperstion. Its only legitimate occupation is to print the news. If 1t printed only the good news and suppressed the bad, the com munity would soon be morally improv' ed. Such a newspaper can only be hoped for when its readers talk good things that have come under their OO- alton. A society has been organized whose members meet once week for the purpose of recouting only the good things that have come undre their oo'

ALASKA AS A HOME,

Alaska, with about one-fifth the area of the remainder Of the United States. contains less than one hund. red thousand inhabitants. That 1t can support population of three to six millions is an opinion resting upon facts.
 Sixty miles beyond the arctic circle the handler garden vegetables, such as potatoes, cabbage and cauHflower. are already raised successfully. At the farthest station of the Agrieultur- al Department-more than five hun dred miles north Of Sitka-barley and oats are brought to maturity every year, and in normal years winter wheat and rye. spring wheat and bue wheat are harvested. Finland, sub stanualty in the same latitude, and with as cold climate, has about fifty thousand square miles of cultiv- able area, and supports population Of three millions. It is fair argu' ment that Alaska can do at least half as we'll as Finland. Doing fully as we'll the territory, with twice the arabic area, would support six mil lion people.
 Fur was the chief and almost the only industry when We acquired the territory. But as the fur trade de cIned the salmon industry arose mounting from forty-three thousand dollars in 1881 to ten million dollars last year. Gold. at the present, is the most valuable product Very pos slSly, as agriculture and other indust' rles arise in the next fifty years, gold will become relatively unimport, ant-Saturday Evening Post.

Jim McKanna, armed with a kahki satchel and a silver. plated badge, is busily engaged in counting the people of Douglas. It is nothing unusual to see him hot-footing down the street after a Slovenian who thinks he is about to be drafted for military service and is trying to make a getaway. At one place the lady of the house refused him admittance on the plea that she had no use for enlarged pictures. When all else fails, Jim displays the badge and that subdues the most unruly.

 The News office is obligated to Hud- son & Nelson, proprietors of the Doug las hotel, for present of good Christ mas cheer. Under it's benign influence the troubles of life were rolled away like a scroll and there was not least bit of headache the next morning.
 Christmas was a lively day in Doug las and yet, considering the number of men who were celebrating, there was very little disorder. When the big whistle at Treadwell sounded the next day, the most of the men were in con, dition to go contentedly back to their work.
 No one will ever accomplish much if he wants to find out what his neighbor is going to do first. So now if you are going to attend the big masquerade ball to be given here New Years night by the Treadwell mechanics you should drop into Smiths drug store and get a mask or disguise of some kind before all the best ones are gone.

 w. A. Mackie had the misfortune to slip, while on a ladder in the 700 fire room, and break one arm and sprain the other. He is progressing very favorably. Hard luck seems to follow him, as it is only about three years ago that he had the misfortune to break his leg.
