CAR At Billings

BILLINGS. Mont, Nov S.-The new
Billings street car line is now in op-
Grafton. This street car line is unique
in that it uses neither trolleys or
poles. No wires are needed to carry
the electric current. as the cars are
operated by storage batteries carried
on them. These are the first OF the
kind used in the state, but similar
cars are used in some portions of New

Farming in the frozen North

There came to Washington, D. c., a
few days ago a man from Alaska, J. H.
Young, vice president Of the Copper
River and Northwestern railroad, and
president of the Alaska Steamship Com
pany, who had something to say in
confederation Of the position taken by
the department of agriculture - that
farming is destined to be a profitable
industry in Alaska. But who would
think Of farming the frozen soil Of
Alaska unless he had expesience2
Looking at the ground in the
rough" said MI. Young, "one would
be justified in saying it was hopeless.
Covered with several feet of moss, snow
and ice, frozen to an unknown depth,
it would seem a hardy farmer who
would undertake to make a crop. And
yet it is easier brought into cultivation
than ordinary mesquite land of the
Southwest. One or two burnings re-
move the moss and the sun does the
rest. After the ground is broken it
never freezes again beyond the ordinary
winter depth.
when the black earth is turned up
to the sun it becomes a storehouse Of
heat units all through the summer.
These are given off during the winter.
This, in time, will make the habita-
Bile portions of Alaska more equable in
climate.
Around Dawson they are now rails
ing potatoes as fine as any produced in
the state Of Washington. The crop
last summer amounted to several tons.
Strawberries and all small fruits thrive,
and cabbages, turnips, carrots, lettuce
and other garden vegetables grow with
a l~uxuriance that is fairly tropical.
Timothy grows to the height Of a mans
waist and produces a head as long as
your hand. Wheat, barley and rye
promise to be successful crops.
Our railroad" said Mr.. Young, is
already making wonderful changes in
that part Of Alaska. The town Of
Chitna has sprung up within three
months, yet it already has a newspaper,
several good buildings, and a hotel will
soon be running"
rs there much immigration" Mr..
Young was asked.
I'VE are not encouraging the immi-
grafton of farmers into the Chitna ba-
SIM" was the reply. 1T will be time
enough when the mineral Of
that part of Alaska are developed, and
I am satisfied there will be a big rush
Of miners there in the spring on ac-
count of the quartz discoveries near
the coast.

To Lease Mineral Lands

1t has long been the policy Of the
government to give away the mining
lands to whoever would work them.
This has applied to oil lands as well as
to those bearing gold and other metals,
but the interior department is now of
the opinion that these lands should not
pass out Of the ownership of the gov
eminent, but hat they should be leased
on royalty basis. While this plan is
something of a novelty in this country,
it seems likely that a bill will be agreed
on and probably passed at this session
q. congress to require oil men to pay
the government for all oil they take
from public lands. The principal OBJ
lection to such a bill seems to be the
fear hat federal supervision would en-
tail annoyance and perhaps injustice on
the operators.

AN UNREAD REPORT.
The Methods of Barney Barnato In His
Mining Ventures.

The Methods of Barney Barnato In His
Mining Ventures.
Barney Barnato before the tragic
termination of his career was widely
known because of his large fortune
won in mining ventures. His rapid
accumulation of wealth was popularity
attributed to luck, but luck of the per-
sistent variety usually rests upon a
more solid basis han mere chance.
An insight to Barnato's methods Is af-
forded by an incident recently related
by A. A. Blow, an American engineer
once in Barnato's employ. After an
exhaustive examination of Il mine
whose purchase was under considera-
ton Blow prepared an elaborate and
voluminous report. 1t was accompa-
MED by maps and selections and was
a piece of work of which the engineer
felt hat he could be justly proud.
When it was handed to Barnato to
read, however, the latter laid 1t aside
unopened.
Tell me about It," he said.
Blow proceeded to make an oral re-
port.
Barnato dozed. Finally he exclaim-
ed:
81 employed you because I think you
know something about this business.
and l do not. Now, l do not want to
hear all of this scientific rot about this
mine. All I want you to tell me is
whether it is good businessP
Blow told him mo"
"Then that settles It," said Barnato.
"You are willing to accept the respon-
sibility of turning down this property
at the price offered?
yes" was Blows reply, but l
want you to examine the reports, maps.
assays, plans, ETC., and see the rea-
sons l have for my conclusions"
"Why should l do this? ?" Barnato in
quired. "You tell me that 1t is not
good business And as l cannot I'M
derstand your report why should |
waste my time on anything that is not
good business ?"-Moody's Magazine.

When the Press Was Restricted.

Many of the restrictions that ham,
pered the influence of the press re-
manned III force until the close of the
eighteenth century in England. 1t was
not till that period that newspapers
obtained the right to criticise the poll
cy of ministers and of the king. Mr..
Walter, the first editor Of the London
Times, was prosecuted for c%ensuring
the Duke of York. He was sentenced
to pay a fine of $3.50, stand in the pill
lory for an hour, be imprisoned for a
year and give security for his good be-
havior for seven years. The order
with regard to the pillory was can
celed, but he had to serve his term in
Jail.

IN A ROMAN CAB.
A Party of Disguised Americans and
an OvergratefuI Driver.

an OvergratefuI Driver.
In MI. Howells' Roman Holidays
and Others is this delightful story
of an adventure in a Roman cab:
In returning from the Pincio the only
cab we had been able to get was the
last left of the very worst cabs in
Rome, and we had hidden the driver
wait for us at the church steps, not
without some hope that he would play
us false. But there he was, true to
his word, with such disciplined fidelity
as that of the Roman sentinels who
used to die at their posts, and we
mounted to ours with the muted
prayer that we at least might reach
home alive.
This did not seem probable when the
driver whipped up his horse. 1t ap-
peared to have aged and sickened
while we were in the church, although
we had thought it looked as bad as
could be before, and 1t lurched alarm
ingly from side to side, recovering it
self with a plunge of its heavy head
away from the side in which its body
was sinking.
The driver swayed on his box, hay
ing fallen equally decrepit, in spite of
the restoratives he seemed to have ap-
piled for his years and infirmities. His
clothes had put on some such effect
of extreme decay as those of Rip Van
Wrinkle in the third act; there was
danger that he would fall on top of
his falling horse and that their raj
ment would mingle in one scandalous
ruin.
Via Slstina had never been so full or
people before; never before had it been
so long to that point where we were
to turn out OF it into the friendly OBJ
security of the little cross street which
would bring lis to our hotel. We could
not consent to arrive in that form; we
made the driver stop, and we got out
and began overpaying him to release
us.
But the more generously we over
paid him the more nobly he insisted
upon serving us to our door.
At last. by such Il lavish expenditure
as ought richly to provide for the few
remaining years of himself and his
horse. we prevailed with him to let us
20 and reached u hotel glad al
most proud. to arrive on foot.
