SHIPS 1000 FEET LONG

The Cunard Steamship Company is now building two gigantic liners to carry G0,0OO tons apiece, and the Liverpool Dock Company is now en- gagged in deepening their harbor to enable these leviathans of the deep to reach the wharf
 900 feet long and draw something like forty-fye feet of water and make twenty-five miles an hour. are being planned by ST William Allen White, the Ieat steamship expert who recently made trip over on the Lusitania of the Cunard line to see how the big ship ran in fair weather and in storm.
 The New York channel is con stantly being dredged by the gov ernment, until the new channel" is now deep enough to take care of the big ships of 40.0o0 tons and 500 feet in length where it was difficult for the 2o,ooo-ton ships of a few years ago to get in through the tortuous and shallow channel
 The Narrows, which formerly had twenty-five feet of water at low tide has been deepened 70 that ships with forty-foot draft can pass safe ly in. and the only question now is where the larger ships may land
 There is no dock on the Manhat tan side, along the North river large enough for an S0O-foot ship to dock to say nothing of a l,000-foot ship, and the new Cunarders will have to go to the mudtlats on the Jersey side or to Brooklyn.

ORIGIN OF WOMAN

According to Hindu legend this is the proper origin of woman; TWash- tri, the god Vulcan of the Hindu mythology, created the world, but on his commencing to create woman he discovered that for man he had exhausted all of his creative mater ials and that not one solid element had been left. This, of course, great fly perplexed Twashtri and caused him to fall into a profound medita- tion When he arose from it he pro ceeded as follows. He took:
 The roundness of the moon.
 The undulating curve of the ser pent.
 The graceful twist of the creeping plant.
 The light shivering of the grass blades and the slenderness of the willow.
 The velvet of the flowers.
 The lightness of the feather.
 The gentle gaze of the doe.
 The frolicsomeness of the dancing sunbeam
 The tears of the cloud.
 The inconsistency of the wind
 The timidity of the hare.
 The vanity of the peacock.
 The hardness of the diamond.
 The cruelty of the tiger
 The chill of the snow.
 The cackling of the parrot.
 The cooing of the turtle dove.
 All these he mixed together and formed a woman

RAILROADS.

The dominant note at the banquet rendered to Governor Clark was the crying need of a railroad to the inter- for.
 It must be evident to all that no substantial development will take place until better means of commu- nication are established with the coast, and the cost of transportation considerably reduced
 But We do not want a railroad built into the interior simply for the benefit and profit of monopolistic corporations. We want railroad that will give efficient service at a which will give a square deal to all and sundry.
 Such railroad can only be built with government aid, which would carry with it proper government con- trol, and We have Governor Clark s assurance that the matter will be taken up during the next session of Congress.
 In that event 1t Is to be hoped that the squabbles of opposing fac tions will be eliminated and united action taken to insure the passage of a satisfactory bill. So far as we can see it does not matter who builds the  road-Joslin, Hubbard, the Guggs, or The principal point is that the rail road should be controlled by the gov ernment and the interests of the peo- pie therein protected.

THE ELECTION.

On Tuesday next the people of Alaska will go to the polls to elect delegate to Congress How they will vote none of Us can tell. If We read the Orr papers We find glowing reports from the coast as 10 the pro gress of his campaign there. while the Wickersham paper is just as in sistent about the success of the pres ent delegate
 There is tall lying going on some where. and after Tuesday We shall know where to fix the responsibility. The diligent searcher after truth must feel bewildered when he reads in one paper that Wickersham was busted by Fink, and in the other state ment putting quite a different com plexion on the affair During the past few weeks The Alaska Citizen has received communications giving biased opinions as to what is hap pening in the coast towns. These tel egrams were so manifestly preju- diced that We suppressed them in what We believed to be the public interest.
 Voters would do well to ignore par tizan messages, or at least not to be influenced unduly by them. Even though the messages come from ap- parently reliable sources they are cOlored to suit the views of the pa pers printing them.
 Having no candidate of it's own, The Alaska Citizen does not feel jus tified in stepping into the fight. But We have our own ideas as to the re spective merits of the candidates. and We presume that the majority of Alaskans have already decided for themselves who is the best man to send to Washington That being the case it would not be bad idea for the daily papers in Fairbanks to publish the truth and nothing but the truth during the next few days, for they may rest assured that they will stand exposed after Tuesday next The people want the facts about the progress of the election, not faked stories

A Queer Phase of HYpnotisn1.

The technique of phreno-magnet- ism is this: When the subject is in the hypnotic sleep the operator, standing behind him, places the tips of his fingers upon the subjects head and waits. Soon the subject will begin to act or sing or speak Any one acquainted with the phrenolog- ical system of localiZation will recog- niZe al once that the actions or words of the subject correspond to the organ" on the head which has been touched by the operator. Thus if you touch combativeness the sub jeCt is very apt to square off and strike some one or speak of war or a drum. If you touch veneratiOn he is very apt to lift his eyes and pray. l have heard a very eloquent sermon thus inspired in a subject who was gifted with a ready ton que. Touch the organ of color and he will speak of beautiful colors. Tuch tune and he will sing or whis- tie. Touch caution and his face will express vivid fear l remember that one subject startled me by shout ing Look out!" and making a leap that he could scarcely have equaled in his waking state. When I touched the faculty of caution he thought he saw a snake.-Dr. George F. Laid law in Metropolitan Magazine.

ALLIANCE WITH BRITAIN?

WASHINGTON. D. C., - James Bryce, the British Ambassador, con ferred with Secretary Knox recently on the subject of the Nicaraguan problem. The attitude of Great Brit ain is satisfactory to this country, and ii seems probable that a hard be the ultimate outcome of the pres ent negotiations. Germany is said to be encouraging Japan in a policy Of interference but the British infu- euce wholly offsets the efforts of the kaiSer'S government, and the situa- ton is well within the control of the United States and England. It is broadly admitted by Secretary Knox that the Nicaraguan question has become acute and developments are expected.
 LONDON - Whitelaw Reid, the American Ambassador, held a long conference with King George recent ly and the following statement was authorized immediately afterwards:
 His majesty, the King, has taken a deep interest in the Nicaraguan i'm brogliO, because of the fact that the Monroe doctrine may become involv- ed. Great Britain will adhere to the time-honored policy of non-interfer- ence ill American affairs, and will discourage any attempt to form a European and Oriental entente cor diale''
 Everyone familiar with British pol itics realizes the full purport of this remarkable statement It means, in plain language. that Great Britain will sever it's alliance with Japan the moment that country consummates an understanding with Germany.
 While in London on his recent wis it, Prince Fushimi, the Japanese i'm perial envoy, let it be known that Japan was constrained to establish cordial relations with Germany, though not relaxing the Mikado's re gard for the Anglo-Japanese alliance.
 Germany has vast interests in the Argentine republic and has not only acquired 10000 square miles of terri tory for colonization purposes, but has completed negotiations for sim liar foothold in Brazil. This is re- garded as direct slap at the Amer ican Monroe doctrine, which was first promulgated by George Canning, a British statesman, who foresaw complications in which Great Britain would be compelled to form an Anglo alliance in order to pre- serve the British empire.

Chairman Lloyd's Forecast,

Tn my opinion the next House will be Democratic by a majority of between 40 and 50," said Chairman James T. Lloyd, of the National Democratic Congressional committee. MT. Lloyd is in close touch with political conditions in practically ev- cry Congressional district in the country, and is generally reputed among his colleagues as more likely dent, if anything, when making po- litical prognostications. Minority Leader Champ Clark predicts the Democratic majority in the next House may possibly reach 75.

NEW VALDEZ DISCOVERY

A gold quartz ledge on the noun tain north of Valdez, striking across the country rock nearly at right angles and exposed for half a mile until 1t disappears in the snow. was discovered and located three weeks ago by II. j. Harvey and Smith Hig- gins. Specimens of the rock show free gold visible to the naked eye. and under glass the spccks indi- cate high grade ore.
 For some time after the discovery the locators were reticent about their find as they wished 10 trace the ledge further They have now located il for a long way. The dis covery was made from a distance of Ia mile as the two men were walk ing along the flat. studying the con tour of the hills. About 300 or 100 feet above the flat, they saw this ledge plainly exposed and immedI aJely climbed up to see it. They followed ii up hill westerly until it was lost in the snow, and then went back and traced fl easterly until ii sunk in the debris at the foot Of the mountain
 The continuity of the ledge strik- ing across the formation indicates a true Assure vein. and this with the high grade surface ore gives lively hope that a bonanza has been found. l-ProspeCtOr

THEY ARE RESPONSIBLE.

N hen the Republicans took con. trol of the Federal government in 1861 the expenses of the government were about s65.0O0O00 annually, nearly s1.000. .000,000 less than now. As Hon James G. Blaine says in his Twenty Years in Congress: The leaders of the Democratic party had guarded the treasury with unceasing vigilance against every attempt at extravaganza or CorruptiOn.' The result of this frugality and honesty was seen in the annual expenditures. Economy in public expenditures has always been a cardinal principle of the Democratic party The appro- priations for the four years of Cleve- lands administration were less than one-half the appropriations of the last four years of Republican rule.

 AZ objection has been raised that snlf-government would be too ex- pensiye for the people 10 bear. Such is not the case Al the present mo, ment the largest interests in the ter ritory go practically untaxed. Under territorial government the fisheries trust and all the other corporations would have 10 pay their just propor, tiOn of taxation l. Is our belief that lfgoyernment would so in crease the prosperity of the territory that the raising of sufficient money for the purposes of government would present no difficulties whatever.

THE BEVERIDGE BILL.

It is reported that the Beveridge bill will be again brought before Congress next session. As the people of Alaska are of one mind in their opposition to the bill the delegate, whoever he may be, will be expected to oppose it.
 What the people of Alaska demand is not government by an appointive or partly appointive commission, but absolute control of their own in- ternal affairs. We believe, with Gov ernor Clark, that the President hon. estly desires to do the best thing for Alaska, but we think that he has been wilfully misled by interested people regarding the true character and con- position of the people of this terri tory.
 It is pity that the President re ceived his earliest impressions of Alaskan conditions from persons un- acquainted with the country, or ac- quainted only with Southeastern Al aska. Did the President realize the high standard of intelligence which prevails among Alaskans, cid he but know the spirit of manliness and In, dependence that pervades the whole people; he would never hare pro- posed the Beveridge bill, as it was first introduced as a solution of the Alaskan question.
