PUTS IN A PROTEST.
Barre Taxpayer" Doesn't Like Pur
chase of Auto Fire Truck.

Editor, Barre Daily Timems: Please
spare me space in your paper to express
my mind in regard to a fire truck. as
have had no other way to do it. ] think
the city council is a little fast in get
ting a fire truck and asking the voters
to pay for it without having something
to say about il. | understand the city
council said the voters had had year
to think Of it. would like to know
what good ii would be to think" of it
when they have no chance to say any
thing about it. Now the way feel
about the matter is this. If the city
council want any Injuries, they had bet.
ter put their hands into their own peck
cts and keep their hands out Of the
workingmen's pockets, if they can't give
them little say.
If the city council want to get any
pIaything for the firemen they had better
buy them shovel and see first If We
cannot have some streets that a man
can walk over and not fall down. We
need new bridge at the south end that
is SAFE we need some sidewalks, and
had better try and get first what we
need and then there is time to get
FIRE truck.

A. M. Powell, one of the pioneers of Western Alaska, and author of the book, "Trailing and Camping in Alas ka, is registered at Seattle hotel. Mir. Powell went to Valdez in 1898 as a sur veyor in the employ of the government. He was associated with Capt. E. s. Abercrombie in the survey and con. struotiop of the Valdez-Eagle trail, and as scout for the government personally located five passes in the Alaskan range. Speaking of the future of the country about Valdez, Mir. Powell says: "I believe it is ultimately to be one of the richest and most permanent quartz localities in the territory. They are beginning an era of development up there and next summer a number of stamp mills are to be erected in the district. 1 have never been in any camp, either in Alaska or any part of the United States, where so much rich free milling gold quartz was brought in by prospectors. firmly believe that some day they are going to hit second Goldfeld in that country. In view of the rich pockets that are being con tinually found, 1 think my prophecy is reasonable"

A Gift With a Thought in It

There's one very simple way out of the Christmas shopping problem; don't shop, but sit quietly at home and sub. scribe for The Youths Com panion. The chances are, too, that no present you could buy for the young friend or the family you delight to honor could confer so much pleasure AS this gift of The Youths Companion for a whole round year-ffty-two weeks issues, and the fifty second as keenly enjoyed as the very first.
 There will be stories for readers of every age; sound advice as to athletics; suggestions for the girl at college or making her own way in the world; good things for every member of the family-all for S200-less than four cents week.
 The one to whom you give the sub- scription will receive free all the re- maining issues of 1912, as we'll as The Companion Window Transparency and Calendar for 1913, in rich, translucent colors.

The Norwegian whaling steamer Ad- miralen, Capt. Larsen, which has been on the Alaskan whaling grounds since last spring, has gone back to the Sound. The Admiralen, which is equipped with the latest appliances for whaling and preserving the products of the industry, sailed from Sandefjord, Norway, last year. She encountered heavy weather coming around the Horn and near San Francisco ran into southeast gale which disabled her. The Catania gave her tow to San Francisco, where she arrived April 29. After taking on coal she resumed her journey North and reached Akutan May B. She sailed for Puget sound October g.

Pacific Coast Steamship Go.

!
 The report of the Pacifc3 Coast Steamship Company for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1912, contains the fol- lowing that may be of interest to the people of the North:
 Gross earnings Gncrease), S93,42S 61; operating expenses (ncrease), $780, 430.96; net earnings (decrease), Slo3,- OO235.
 There was expended for repairs to the fleet and charged to operating ex- penses, s351, ,147. 73, as against S335, 235.l9 last year. Ordinary repairs and re. uewals cost S189, ,122.18, and extraordin- ary repairs. S162,O25.55.
 The number of passengers carried was, approximately, the same as last year, but passenger revenue fell off SIS, 9,26950 owing to reduced rates forced by competition. Freight carried in creased 50,466 tons. Freight revenue increased S129, ,467.7o.
 The main causes for increased ex penses were: Increased amount of freight handled. Accidents to steam. CTS Spokane, Santa Rosa and Ramona. Necessity of operating more expensive steamers in place of the Santa Rosa and Ramona, which were lost. Cost of club insurance increased S8,000. Cost of deck equipment increased nearly SlO,OOO on account of new government requirements.
 Rates are firmer than at the same time last year. Present indications point to better showing for the steams ship company during the coming fiscal year.
 July ', 1911, the steamship Santa Rosa, en route San Francisco to San Diego, stranded near Point Arguella, Cal, and became total loss. All pas sengers were landed safely. Three mem bers of the crew were drowned. Book value of steamer, S300,0O0. h. sured for S225, ,000.
 September 10, 1911, the steamship Ramona, en route Skagway to Seattle, stranded during fog on rocks off Span ish islands and became total loss. No lives lost. Book value, .S155,0OO. h. sured for S99O0O.
 Deductions were made from property account of the Pacific Coast Steamship Co. during the fiscal year, as follows:
 Retiring value by loss of Santa Rosa, S3OO,OO0 Subject to collection of insur- ance for S225,OOO). Reduction in book value of steamship Queen and steam ship State of California, S60,000. Re- tiring franchise account, S80000 Re- duciug value of furniture and fixtures, J S12,799.1O. Additions were made to property account of the company by the purchase of the barge Electra and extension to Moss wharf landing and material, amounting to S7,91544. Total deductions from property account, S444, ,88399.
 In order to maintain the efficiency of our steamship fleet, which has been reduced by the loss of three vessels since January, 1911, contract was let let on April ?, 1912, to the New York Shipbuilding Co.,, Camden, N. J., for the building of new and modern steamship, somewhat larger than any other vessel owned by the company. The contract calls for the delivery of the ship in May, 1913, and if is expected that it will add considerably to the et- Gciency and earning capacity of the steamship company. The cost of the new ship will be partly provided for by the insurance collected on account of the loss of three vessels heretofore re- ferred to.

ENCLUND'S SUCCESS
With WINTER RYE
kenmare Farmer Favors Winter Rye
but Says Winter Wheat 10 Not
Perfect Success

J. A. Enelund, who is making a
iCne race Tor the Senate up IN the
Second District, was in Minot recent
ly. The Independent editor enjoyed
u hours visit with him and learned
come interesting facts about the ex-
pertments he has made on his ti2
Eenmare farm.
Mr.. Englund sowed last fall 400
acres of winter rye, a large part Of
which was drilled in on stubble.
This appears now to he much better
than that which was sown on ground
p:owed and narrowed. Mr.. Englund
believes the rye had firmer seed

stubble caught the snow and protect
ed it. His winter wheat is not salts.
factory. He sowed it on corn land,
where rows Of corn had been left to
catch the snow, but about half Of it
froze ont. Mr.. Englund farms about
two sections of land.
Mr.. Englund intends to SOW winter
rye on his barley stubble. which he
says is a fine way to clean UP the
land.
