THE CLEARING OF THE CLOUDS

Alaska is to be congratulated on a good many things that have and have not happened lately. All in all the out look for the territory as a whole was never quite so bright as now. There never was anything the matter with any considerable part of it in the first place except an anomalous condition of politics that kept every kind of industry unsettled and insecure and forced all its production of capital to flee for safety. No country has produced more per cap ita and retained less.
 The Beveridge bill-instigated by a discredited administration-was calcu- lated to prolong the condition and make it more binding; but Alaska happened to have a strong delegate i'll congress and the attempt to pass the bill failed. The hearings before the committees of the senate and house have made Alaska many staunch friends, and it is hopeful that no such a bill will ever threaten the territory again. Thanks are due to Delegate Wickersham for the clearing of the clouds, and Alaska is to be congrat- ulated that he is a candidate for re- election.

BRIGHT SIDE OF THE STAMPEDE

There is not one of us but who has friends in the great stampede now in progress. It is the most natural thing in the world for those of us whose af- fairs forbid us to join the procession to harbor a feeling of disappointment. But with that the situation has it's bright side. First and foremost, the Iditarod will have tonic effect that was badly needed; and in the next place there is no apparent reason why we should not all benefit by it.
 Panama, at least stands to gain by the movement. The only ones leaving here are people whose business prospects were not satisfactory as things were; ; and Tanana has always profited more or less from the river travel, which will be the largest in several years, if not the largest ever.
 It is quite true that Tanana would not be what it is if it were not for the productive Tanana valley. Even so: the Fairbanks district is not half dead j; indeed some of the best informed men now coming from that region declare they expect to see the Fairbanks coun- try start on the ascendant and not stop until it has eclipsed its former glory.

George Washington.

George Washington sometimes drank deep, but not to the point of drunken ness. He was regular investor in lot tery tickets, and played cards for money. He could swear with vigor and earnest ness, and at times was known to get into towering fits of anger. He was 6 feet ? inches high, had large hands and feet, and always raked in the pot when he held the top hand.

come is the. high cost of transporting ore to the mill-for, they say, Fair banks is changing into quartz camp at rate even her own people fail to realize.
 Another thing: Tanana is not nearly out of the running as the center of a production of both coal and gold. In this connection it is not amiss to sug- gest that those of us who are doing little or nothing to advance develop ment in this direction refrain from be- littling the efforts of others.

ACCORDING TO THE BOOK

The trial of Felix Boucher for killing Gustafson on Willow creek in the Idit- arod resulted in acquittal, just as every body expected it would. Whether the killing was really justifiable or not the evidence obtainable satisfied the off cials, the coroner's jury and the resi- dents where it took place that it was SO.
 By what rule of logic it was expected to make the matter appear in different light by trial removed five hundred miles from the scene of the tragedy is hard to tell
 : It seems that the district attorney addressed disciplinary letter to the commissioner and ex officio coroner in the Iditarod because the latter official had discharged Boucher. It may be that the commissioner-coron had no power or right to discharge him; and yet, if he had no such rightful power it is certain he was worse than wart on II investigation by him would have noth- ing to determine and would be farcical Not for the world would it be intimated that the district attorney did not go by the book. For beyond him is the attorney general of the United States, who himself goes by the book and sees that the district attorney goes by the book; and the district attorney at Fair banks insists that the commissioner recorder five hundred miles away also go by the book. This is the system to be kept intact, and the district attorney, being in the middle, bears the maximum strain. And so it is easy to see how disastrous flaw in the little end of a very long string might be. If one inch were to break off the tail the equi- librium would be disturbed and the head might bump the ceiling.
 Wherefore let us rather applaud the district attorney in his lauda ble efforts at keeping the line straight.
 1t Is true that the course of justice was long and exceedingly costly to the government. It is also true that a number of people were brought from the Iditarod at great expense to them selves and at time when their pros poets were blighted and their hopes shattered. Even the deputy marshal who piloted the unfortunate cadaver over the the long stretches of frozen trail and deposited it at the temple of justice there to contribute its mite of mute testimony is worthy of sympathy. But these things were necessary and ac- cording to the book and should not be allowed to disturb your equanimity or mine or to provoke silly comment.

HARVARD REDUCES

Crimson Contemplates Cut
ting Off One Game at

CAMBRIDGE, Mass, Nov. SIT is re-
ported that changes of a more or less
pronounced nature will be found in next
springs Harvard baseball schedule
when it is adopted
Several OF the Harvard graduates now
on the advisory committee on baseball
are well versed in baseball. and would
like to bring Harvard baseball out OF
the doldrums which some say has af-
dicted IL for several seasons. Hence
$ne Contemplated changes in the sched-
ule, these With a view to building
around the Princeton and Yales games.
Two games with Brown and one with a
big league team. the Boston Americans
again, probably. viii likely be found
on the schedule.
Instead Of arranging three games with
Princeton as last season, the third, when
Q third is necessary, to be played in
New York, it is reported that only two
games will be arranged with the Tigers,
and perhaps only one. There is no
hitch of any consequence with the IT,
gers, no disagreement at all, but Har-
ward doesn't want her Princeton games
TO come as early In May as Princeton
does. Anyway, one game at least with
Princeton may be Topped off. Graduate
Manager Garcelon, of Harvard. and Di-
rector Of Athletics Roper, of Princeton,
may talk this over In New York.
The Harvard team viii put in about a
week at either Charlottesville or Annap-
oils practicing on the spring Southern
trip The admirable facilities for the
purpose at Annapolis may take the

DORMAN DEFEATED
BY LEACH CROSS
"Molar Machine" Nearly Scores
Knockout in Grueling
Bout.

NEW YORK. Nov. 5.-Leach Cross
the "molar machine" from the east
side, used Jack Dorman as a ladder tC
climb out of the has been" class at
the Fairmont A c. last night.
With terrible blows to Jacks face
that cut and marred the lips. nose, and
eyes of Dorman, he won fast bout
of ten rounds Twice he nearly put
Dorman to sleep in the last round with
hard uppercuts TO the face, but Dor
man. with eyes so pulled that he could
scarcely see, managed to keep on HIS
feet to the end and thus robbed Cross
of the glory of a knockout.
The bout was similar to the one
Cross and DOrman had three weeks
ago, save that there were no knock
downs. whereas in the other milling
there were three. The session was
just as fast as the previous one. with
swings. hooks, and uppercuts, fairly
flowing from the arms of the, boxers.
