morning paper and looked at Jack
over his glasses.
See here, young man, go ahead and
get your patent feathers If you need

tie cobbling shop down on Spencer
street-it's kept by two brothers-old
soldiers both of 'em, crippled by the
war, and they're trying to make an
honest living. Tell the old fellows to

day? You know you and mamma are
talking of going to Uncle Roberts to
spend the day, and if you'd only let me
take 1t I'd be so careful"
He folded his newspaper, consulted
his watch. anxiously, and rose.
''Well," he said, "I've got to be going
or I'll miss that car. Yes, Katherine,
/ guess you may take the auto, If you
think you can be careful. Broken
bones are expensive as well as mighty
painful. And you, Jack, remember
what told you about those Shoes"
Jack cornered Katherine as she was
going upstairs to dress for school.
Say, SIS" he said, digging his fists
into his pockets, would you mind ta-
king my shoes down to those old duff
fers on your way to school? You gen.
orally go that way to call for Phyllis,
don't you?"
Katherine took the bundle under her
arm along with her high-school books
and went down Spencer street.
She went into the little shop and
sat down to wait. She had knocked
loudly, but no one had responded, and
she had made bold to enter.
AS she sat there waiting, voices
from the little kitchen beyond reached
her Evidently the two old men were
having late breakfast, and evidently
also they were somewhat hard o.

Eugene Higgins was taking tea OF warm January afternoon on the sum- drenched terrace of the Hotel Royal at Nice.
 '"This bright, hot sunshine, that sparkling sea, these palms and flowers, all tend to make me gay," MT. Higgins said, "yet, fresh from the loss of my beautiful yacht, my gaiety seems to myself as ill timed as the gaiety of John Marchmont.
 "John Marchmont's wife had died, and Mary Smith, the bosom friend of the dead woman, had asked the after noon off to attend the funeral.
 "On Mary Smiths return from the funeral, her mistress said to her with gentle sympathy:
 "'And did you get on all right at the obseqpies, Mary@
 "Indeed, ma'am. ! had an elegant time,' Mary answered. I sat in a fine cab with the corpse's husband, and he squeezed my hand all the way to the cemetery and back, and he told me- said he-"Mary, there's no doubt about it.. you're the belle of the funeral" , "

ltis unfortunate that the develop meut of Alaska depends to any extent upon politics. Politics is not an ethi- cal game. It is not played from the viewpoint of ethics. Alaska would be developed even if it were part of the czar's domain. The vast wealth that ! Alaska contains would not lie fallow under any political conditions. But as Alaska is part of the United States, justice demands that she should have the best laws thai can be framed to promote her welfare. Whether these 1 laws can be enacted by congress or by a legislature elected by the citizens of ] Alaska is the question. President Taft thinks congress can best do the work, possibly through the aid of commia- 1 sion appointed to investigate the need 1 of the country. He has so expressed himself. Judge Whickersham, the dele gate tU congress from Alaska, believes 1 in simple form of home rule. He be- lieves that the people of Alaska are the
 best qualiaed 10 make their own laws, and there is no doubt that this belief is shared by great majority of the citi- zens of Alaska. but in view of the pres ! ideuts. unequivocal opinion on the sub ] feet the outlook for home rule is not [ encOurag;ng. The main contention of the famous opponent of home rule is that Alaska has not all adequate per
 maueut population to undertake the serious business of legislation. By i'm l plicatton, at least, it k averred that it will be some time before Alaska has a permanent population that will entitlo 1 it to self government. The allegation by so distinguished 9 parsonage as the president of the United States will not help Go settle the country, and, above everything, Alaska needs home build CTS. The building of roilrOads will create Qermanent population. These railroads will be an incentive to the development of agricultural resources. I If Alaska were granted home rule it would be a tacit admission of the fact that the CoaDtry is entitled to per mauent population; recognition of the fact that iu the generations to come it will be the home of countless thous- auds. The writer hopes to live to see the day when Alaska will be a state, possibly more than one state. In the meantime If the citizens of Alaska want home rule, they must fight forit.

GOMPERS ON INJUNCTIONS.
Hints at a More Formidable Labor
Movement.

Washington, Feb. 25.-Samuel Gompers.
president of the American Federation of
Labor. told Attorney General Wickersham
to-day that if the present American work
ers' movement, which he said is construc-
tive and conservative in character, is out
lawed and crushed out of existence by un-
favorable legislation and court decisions it
will be followed by another movement
which will scarcely be constructive. Mr..
Gompers and Mr.. Wickersham discussed
legislation affecting labor for two hours.
Mr.. Gompers opposed the Moon bill, now
before the Judiciary Committee OF the
House, on the ground that it is a pro-
injunctive measure. Mr.. Gompers called to
the attention OF the Attorney General the
status Of the labor organizations of the
country as a result of the decision in the
Danbury hatterS case. telling him that
labor here should be dealt with as fairly
as it was in England.
THE labor union IS not a trust" Mr..
Gompers asserted. None of its achieve
ments in behalf of its members and society
at large can properly be confounded with
the pernicious and selfish activities of the
illegal trust
