ON TO THE TANANA.

A few weeks ago word Of the completion of
the railroad from Cordova up the Copper river
to the Bonanza copper mines was given out
Within the month has the first real shipment
of copper ore been sent out from these mines
and from now it may be expected that a
regular output will be maintained
The ultimate objective point of this road
however, is said not to be the Bonanza mines,
where it now ends, but the Tanana river valley
IA fertile agricultural region-and the copper
and gold deposits at the headWaterS OF the Tan
ana and the White rivers Here there are vast
deposits Of copper the richest copper ores III
quantity ever known to the world. Que mug
get found at the headwaters Of the White is
said to have weighed three tons. The gold pac-
err deposits Of these regions, also, have been pro
ductiye for several years, and their output is to
be reckoned in the millions.
Though the country around the headwaters
of these rivers is very rugged, the mountains
ranging up to 1900 feet in height the fact
that this road is now well into the region appar-
emily would make it comparatively easy mat
ter to complete the work of opening up the
mineral country that lies in Eastern Alaska and
the Yukon.
An Alaskan paper calls attention to another
road that is also making plans to tap this
ton. This road, proposed, would start at
IIaines. which lies in Southern Alaska, above
Juneau and not far from Skagway, at the head
Of navigation. It would pass up the Porcuplne
through the Kluane and to the Tanana by way
Of the White river.
This road would open rich placer region
in the Kuane. which lies in Yukon territory,
making possible the working of the ground by
dredges and hydraulic PLANTS beside reaching
the mineral region at the head waters of the
White and the Tanana. Throughout its length
it would pass through mineraized country,
held back now only by the lack of transpor-
tation
Near this line bearing to the northeast, is
the road which was built few years ago to
open up the Yukon. This road starts at Skag-
way and runs over White Pass to White Horse.
at the headwaters of the Yukon. 1t has been
an important factor in the development Of this
portion of the Yukon.
Similarly these other roads, when completed
as planned will prove of incalculabe benefit
in opening practically unexploited portions of
Alaska and the Yukon.

HELPING OTHERS.

Nevada, because she is state sparsely popu-
lated, and has for fifty years past been giving
up her wealth to the upbuilding of other states
and the nation with little profit to herself in
material growth and development, is looked up
with derision by the inhabitants of some of
the more densely populated states. Yet we
who know that in energy and ability, in truth
and loyalty, in manliness and womanliness they
are surpassed by none
In proportion to her number we believe Ne
vada has brought to the world more with the
stamp of greatness upon them than any other
state can boast of Nevada is not IA land
of the weakling and the degenerate. 1t is va
land of truth and strength and endeavor, and
only to those with such qualities do the noun
tains and plains, the precious metals and the
fertile lands and running waters of this great
empire hold out their allurements. The name
'Nevadan" is by which we are all proud
to be called and of which only man among
is worthy.-Las Vegas Age

Americans have been afraid of paternalism

Americans are rapidly firing of this devil-take-

JUST ASK THE BARBER.

Some one has written that the bar

something far more intimate also.
The barber is the confdant and
scandal monger Of no mean stand

viii prove to all who may wish to
find out that nine out Of every ten
men will tell all his family and
other troubles to the one who is
shaving him. It seems that the pres
sure Of the cold and treacherous ra-
zor blade acts as confidence slim
ulator." The man in the chair fair
" overfows with his troubles, be
they small or large, disagreements
With his f1ife partner" or the too
strenuous attentions of some one
who is trying to land him in the web
Of matrimony.
Any barber has in the back Of his
Uranium enough Of scandal gathered
from the "chair" conversations Of
his customers to fill several books.
Were the barber, as class, man
given to silence, it would not be 80
bad, but he isn't and his example in
rarrulitv seems to be contagious.

In tho
many romanN
that malaria was
quitoes it is related h.
and Doctor Sombo lived
larious Roman Campagna
quinine. They retired at sunset
a mosquito-proof hut, with double
doors and windows Of wire net and
they did not leave until sunrise. The
fact that they remained immune
while the attendants sleeping out
side contracted malaria confrmed
the belief that the mosquitoes were
responsible. But how did they carry
the disease? At first it was thought
to be by water.
To settle the question live mos
quitoes which had bitten infected
peasants, were obtained, and two
members Of the school submitted to-
be bitten by them. They both went
down with malaria. Again, how did
the mosquitoes transmit the germ?
BY cutting sections Of the proboscis
the malarious parasite was found. It
breaks through the skin Of the pro-
boscis and is transmitted at the time
Of the sting. From the first conjec-
thre to the final proof was series Of
careful experiments, ending with
slicing of the mosquitoes proboscis.
Now this is finer than fine hair. It
is necessary to stop to think. For
it is easier to imagine the triumph
Of the proof than the delicate opera
ton that produced it.

A TREE THAT WEEPs.

During the driest months of the
Rhodesian year-August, September
and October tree called by the
natives Mukololo exudes moisture in
large drops from its topmost leaves
and gives the traveller who happens
to be standing in the immediate vi
cinity the impression that a shower
Of rain is falling. When the natives
see one of these trees dripping they
say: "The mukololo is weeping for
rain" Even during the hottest day
the tree weeps copiously.

.GOMPERS READY
 FOR CONVENTION Has Nothing to Say About Socialism Nor Its
 Members

Atlanta November 11.--New life was put into the preliminary preparations for the convention of the American Federation of Labor, which meets here Monday, by the arrival tonight of Pres- ident Samuel Gompers and the other members of the national council not already on the ground.
 This years convention will be no pink tea party,' according to MT. Gompers. Several questions of national importance are to come before the or ganization and there is a greater mass of detail work than ever before in the history of the federation.
 One of the first things the national officers did on reaching the city was to approve the action of the metal trades department in taking up the fight on the Taylor efficiency sys- tem," which recently has been adopted by the federal government in some of it's departments.
 "The Taylor system only tends to make the workman mere machine" decalred MT. Gompers, "and the fight against 1t will be taken up on the nvvr of convention next week.
 MT. Gompers was asked about pro- posed antagonism as to himself as the head of the federation by the socialist members of the federation. He smiled as he replied that he always was ready to discuss the American Federation, but that he had nothing to say about socialism or it's members.
 The metal trades department closed its sessions today by re-electing all the old officers for another year. A resolution was adopted condemning g the Taylor efficiency system and call ing upon the federation to ratify the action of the department.
