sympathy from Alaskans. Pinchot favors, and the Nelson bill provided, for provisions which would limit the profit of the operator, and therefore, every dollar of royalty must come out of the pocket of the consumer. The resources of a government should be developed for the benefit of the people rather than the enrinchment of the general government.
 There is strong indication in this article of Pinchots that it will along time before the various schools of con seryationists get together on the terms upon which we may burn our own coal, and that whether, when they have finally agreed, leasors will be found who have the capital and are willing to invest it under the conditions i'm posed, is entirely sproblematical.
 Through the entire article runs the idea that Alaska is the oyster of the customer who has toasted his toes at his freside, rather than to the pioneer who conquers the wilderness, and that the customer intends to open it at his leisure.

HARD pRoBLEM FOR aEIeER

Geo. Geiger, newly appointed super intendent of the Copper River and Northwestern railway, arrived on the Alameda and will assume the duties of his new position tomorrow. He will succeed that splendid man and popular official J. R. Can Cleve, who recently rendered his resignation, after several years of faithful service with this com pany.
 From the record already made by MT. Geiger it is evident that his se- lection brings to the new railroad a high class man who had intricate prob lems of traffic and maintenance to solve, and who required man of quick decision, of wise judgment and giant of energy.
 MT. yGeiger for two years past has been assistant superintendent of the Sierra Nevada division of the Southern Pacific railroad, with headquarters at Sacramento. In that position he had to deal largely with wash-outs and snow blockades, giving him an exper- fence that will prove valuable in his new position.-Cordova Alaskan.

A German biologist finds that man 5
back bone was intended for a horizontal
position, and that man made mistake
when he became biped. Most of man
kinds physical ills are due, he thinks, to
the fact that man walks in an upright
position. 1t is good to know all tins, but
a little late to change.
England suddenly recognized few weeks
ago That ruinea pigs may be used as lawn
mowers. and the sales at once increased
40 fold The price increased also, though
not proportionately At shops in Leaden-

three dozen in day The price at last
reports had not got above three shlllings

Ohio has long thought that G. w.
Mooney. republican candidate for secretary
of state last fall, was an exceptional man,
and now it knows it, He was defeated tor
the secretaryship, but received an appoint

the satisfaction of politicians. But Mr.,
Mooney. after undertaking the work, was
so convinced of its uselessness that he re-
signed and will head a movement to have
it abolished by the Legislature.
Miss Bessie Mccoy. the musical comedy
actress, was disappointed by the nonar-
rival of the man she was to dine with at
Atlantic City. and applied to the district r.
messenger office to fill the vacancy; i me e

fellow who is said to have known as much
about Atlantic City as Sam Weller knew
about London Miss Mccoy found HIM N a a
far more entertaining companion than
most adults at a dinner party, and tn the
experiment was great success besides
being the cleverest press agent story Oh

The superintendent of schools in a west
ern city asked all the pupils to write the
question em @ that was uppermost in their i
minds. Many of the questions related to to
pathetic facts in the child's home HE but but
from the age of seven years up there was va
variety of questions. Some asked "ls
there a hell?" A Chinese pupil raised sI,tI the {
troubling metaphysical question, "Who
made God?" In the high school interest
seemed to be divided between college and
the hereafter.
