The faculty is composed of 124 instructors and 34 assistants, graduate assistants and undergraduate assistants. ltis in. teresting to note that at the University twenty three per cent of the students are self supporting, while over half or fifty five per cent, are wholly or par tially self.supporting.

Interesting Decision to Miners

An important decision of interest to mining men was made recently by the highest court of California in the case of Condo against Sweeney, reported in the no Pacific Reporter.
 Tbe court holds that contract for the sale of mining claims and stipulat- ing that such claims and all machinery placed thereon in working the mine shall be the property of the vendor un til the purchase price is paid, and pro- viding that the purchaser shall work and develop the mine and extract ores and appropriate the proceeds, gives such purchaser the right to prospect and develop the mines, but he cannot commit waste or reno from the place any property constituting part of the realty other than the ore so mined.
 In such case the machinery on the claim for use in working the mines be- come fixtures attached to the mine, and such machinery cannot be attached by the creditor of the purchaser while the purchase price remains unpaid.

A Brighter Day for Alaska


 By far the most encouraging of re- cent public utterances on the subject of Alaska is the statement which Presi- dent Taft authorized the Post-Intelli. gencer to make concerning his attitude and his reasons for sending Secretary Fisher to the northern country to make first hand investigation of conditions there. The president said:
 q am sending Secretary Fisher to Alaska in person because appreciate the importance not only to the terri tory, but to the whole country, of the earliest possible development of the couutry's resources"
 The president added that Secretary Fisher "i5 true conserVationist and a practical man" and that he has "great faith that he will make recommends tions that will completely solve the problems involved"
 Such statement, addressed directly to this newspaper by the president, in- spires the hope and encourages the be- lief that at length the light is to break in on Alaska, aud Alaskans finally are to reap the justice for which they have long waited and prayed
 It is perfectly evident from President Taft's personal message to this news paper that he has not permitted the misrepresentations of purblind muck rakers to blind him in the imperative need of developing at ouce the mani. fold resources of the northern country.
 No other reasonable inference can be drawn from the presidents statement, and certainly he would not send Secre. tary Fisher to Alaska to make first hand investigation if he had not reach ed the conclusion that there is great deal of fiction and downright falsehUod in the frequently reiterated charge that corporate pIunderers are exploiting Alaska for their own pecuniaTY enrich ment, and to the hurt of the people of Alaska.
 President Taft's special emmisary to Alaska will experience DO trouble what ever in getting at the truth. The people of Alaska have not sought to conceal the truth; that seems to have been the chief business of Alaska's enemies, for they have goue to disgusting extremes in their campaign of misrepresenta tion.
 They have wantonly and with mean intent refused to admit that the law will not permit men to do what they actually and openly accused men of do- ing in Alaska.
 Even mem bers ofcongress who know the law have failed to call attention to the fact that under the law it is not possible for any man or any set of men to monopolize the coast of Alaska; and the message of the president, made in response to a request from congress and in which he directed attention to the law on the subject and to certain powers vested in congress, was not enough to make these members take notice of the legal status of Alaska's coast line.
 But brighter day is dawning for Alaska and Alaskaus. President Taft has made it plain that he does not in. tend 10 quit the issue until Alaska's problems are solved.-P.-I.

Stroller in the Whitehorse Star says: Now that general election is coming on, the main issue of which is reef procity, the Stroller deems it his duty to say a few words on that subject which may serve to enable some of his oenighted readers to see their way out of the blind slough of doubt in which they are now wandering. Reciprocity is neither vegetable nor cereal. Also, it is not fruit. It is something like this: Suppose two men were off on fishing trip; the bottle is empty and their pipes, with which both are pro. yided, remain as their only solace. One realizes that he is long on tobacco, but a dilligeut search fails to reveal any matches. The other has matches in every pocket, but "nary" crumb of to- bacco. One supplies what the otber is short on free of charge and they both smoke. That is reciprocity. If one charged the other for tobacco and in turn paid for matches, that would illus trate the "tarif wall" we read about in the city papers. Again, if one fisher man had the bottle and the other the lemons, but what is the use of follow ing the subject furtherG

AMPHIBiOuS AEROPLANES.

Man enyied the fish. its ability 20
swim beneath the water, and built the
submarine; he wished to fly like the
bird and built the aeroplane. Then he
envied the soa-gull, its ability to both
fly and swim. and has but recently cO!i-
srructed the amphibiOus aeroplane.
Last January Glenn Curtiss perfect
ed the first successful aeroplane. He
conducted his experiment work near
San Diego. and finally constructed a
machine that could skim over the VIZ
ter and ri>e in the air, repeating the
change as often as desired. January
20 he sailed cut over the ocean. landed
beside the United States Cruiser Penn
sylvania and was hauled aboard that
ship. He was later let down into the
water. starting his machine from the
cruisers side, flew again to the shore.
His airship is equipped with hydro
planes. or plates constructed to float
the machine and TO enable il TO skim
over the surface.
These experiments show that the
aeroplane fiOtilla will be as important
10 the navicS of the future as are the
fleets of torpedo boats. The decks of
many modern battleships are equipped
with platforms to enable aeroplanes to
start from the ship, but while these
may be retained they are no longer
necessary as the conqueror of the air
has made equally as important a cor
quest of the water. Naval battles of
the future will be fought by the sub
marines below the water, the aero
planes above and tthe gigantic ships
on the surface.

possible. or at least to keep in touch
with the work. This spring work is
very important and every bit you as a
candidate can get from it will give
not only you but the team that much
advantage next fall. From now on
there will be work at 4:15 on Mon
day. Tu asday. Thursday and Friday of
each week.
Former Captain F. B. Thacher, will
be in charge of the squad, giving spec
ial attention to the line men; c. p. Le-
Mire will lave the back fed men ami
DR.. ]. A. Gibson will have charge of
the end men. On Thursday of this
week at the regular practice time
there will be a short black board talk
on the field with few simple fOrma-
tions AMI plays explained. The work
will continue four or five weeks when
it will end with field day, when prizes
will be given for kicking, forward
passing, tackling, charging the line,
etc.
will you do your share to boost this |
work this spring? Come out yourself |
and urge other men whom you know |
may be of some use as candidates to
come ont also. Also be sure 10 watch |
your college work. We want
10 ineligibles next fall"
Prof. Brewer said while there are
low twenty men out for spring prac-
ice there should be seventy-fve.
