For a hundred years there has not been in the civilized world more con- spicuous case of colonial misgovern- ment than is presented by the treat ment of the colony of Alaska by the United States, said Falcon Joslin in an address Seattle, The United States is no longer able to boast that it is in all parts free and equal; it possesses colonies. Some of these colonies are peopled with aliens, and the United States rules them against their will. Alaska is the only one true sense of the word peopled by immigration from the land; yet the alien colonies are allowed some local self government, while Alaska, peopled by Americans, is de- nied the right. The wrong would be less glaring were it not for the gross mismanagement of the colony of Alaska, a condition that is now recog- nized by our legislators. The leaders in Congress hold out the hope that home rule will be granted during the next session. Let us hope that it will be home rule in fact as well as in name. For the same reason that Alaska has been so wretchedly mismanaged-be- cause she is SO far away from the seat of go7ernment-shed demands greater depree Of indoDen3ence than any te7- ritory of the United States ever en- ioyed, and will not be fooled with mere empty shell of power.-Fairbanks Times.

John A. Dowie Hit 'Em Hard.

Some years ago John Alexander Dowie, of the Zion Tabernacle, in the course of his sermon, delivered the following trade against the reporters and editors:
 "You young devils of the press. You generation of viners- You AT" like the scribes of old, and l am like Jesus when I speak of you as He spoke of the seribes. You liars, you scoun- drels, you murderous williams. There is nothing sacred in your unclean minds, you foul serpents of the press. May the legions of devils be cast out of you, for you are already writbing in your agony, you dirty, stinking, drink ing, disreputable set"
 And the boys continue to move in good society.

The Western farmer who voted against reciprocity at the late election now has food for reflection in the fact that the price of wheat dropped two cents per bushel at Winnipeg and ad- yanced five cents per bushel at Mime apolis the day after election. Yet the farmers of the great Northwest were told reciprocity would be a bad thing for them.

Alaskan Coal.

After all the fuss and fgstian over the public lands of Alaska, it is pretty we'll understood that Secretery Fisher, of the Department of the Interior, brings from his recent tour of the North the conviction that the import ance of the Boring river coal fields has been very much exaggerated. Simi- Iarly the value of the Chugach forest reserve and the worth of Controller bay as harbor are said to have been vastly over rated, in the judgment of the secretary. In other words, there is no immediate occasion for alarm con corning the monopolization of lands for which the present use is uncertain. The enormous fortunes that were be- ing 'stolen" from the "people" are chiefly visionary, the product of the dreams of popular magazines end political dust-raisers.
 If such be the case, it sh ould appear that Alaska requires no special govern ment dispensation to handicap the normal operation of economic and business laws; under the old land regulations by which the western states have been developed, Alaska will not blossom forth into 3pluto cratic" civilization without all the travail and struggle that have accom- plished similar ends in other new regions. Reformers have been imagin- ing industrial miracles in Alaska that cannot be. Tn order to produce even a normal growth of the country, to which those now situated in the North are fairly entitled, the same liberal policy toward settlers that has pre- vailed elsewhere in the public land states should be permitted to prevail in Alaska. Why not?
 The Bering River coal fields are not so advautageously situated, if the latest evidence is considered, as to hope tO compete very soon with the supplies of fuel oil forthcoming from California. The Copper River railway and the Bouauza mines will use fuel oil. If, to follow the suggestion of a United States senator, the War De- partment were to take up the mining of Alaska coal, exclude. all private en- terprise from he coal lands and sell the product to all corners at prices which allow for small profit on the government investment, it is likely that a government scandal would re- suit from the inability of the adDlinis- trators to meet the conditions We'll may the talking cease and well may the government return to the sane policy of releasing the domain to the uses of the citizens.-Mining Science

BREAKS UP A COLD
 IN SEVERAL HOURS.
Most Effective and Harmless Way to Cure Severe Cold and End

There is not one grain of quinine in Papc'S Cold Compound, which, when taken every two hours. until three consecutive doses are taken, will sure ly end the grippe and break up the nose severe cold, either in the head, chest, back, stomach or limbs.
 It promptly relieves the most mis- erable headache, dullness, head and nose stuffed up, feverishness, sneez- ing, sore throat. running of the nose, catarrhal affections, soreness, stiff uess and rheumatic twinges.
 Pape's Cold Compound is the re- suit of three years research at a cost of more than fifty thousand dollars, and contains no quinine, which we have conclusively demonstrated is not effective in the treatment of colds or grippe.
 Take this harmless Compound as directed with the knowledge that there is no other medicine made any where else in the world which will cure your cold or end Grippe misery as promptly and without any other as sistance or bad after-effects as a 25- cent package of Papes Cold Com pound, which any druggist in the world can supply.
