The Marines

The United States is not at war
with Nicaragua and yet a force or
Yankee marines, with a los OF four
dead and six wounded, put to flight
the rebel army and captured the reb-
el general. But the marines are &C
customed to that sort OF thing; they
are the presagers of war. the storm
petrals of Mars.
Since the corps was organized they
have composed the first landing party
Of American troops on foreign soil;
thew carried the American flag thro
the breach of the walled city IN Pc
kin when the Japs were striving tor
the honor Of being first: the marines
landed under fire at Guantanamo and
beat back three times their number
Of entrenched Spaniards; marines
were with Perry at Tripoli, with
Dewey at Manila and with Schley at
Santiago.
The infantry OF the sea are sta
toned in navy yards, they guard GOV
eminent supplies in Panama and see
that peaceable elections are held;
they are stationed in every foreign
possession Of the United States; they
do duty in furs and o~vercoats in Al
aska and in linen suits in Porto Rico.

Highest Compliment

The highest compliment that can
be paid a public speaker is for an
audience to sit and listen a%ttentively
and earnestly while he ~discourses
calmly and dispasionately the issues
he has to present. This compliment
was paid Key Pittman. Democratic
candidate for United States Senator,
at the Majestic theater in this city
Thursday night. In times past. po-
litical speakers aroused, swayed and
held their audience by reviling the
opposing candidates and maligning
the opposition party; but the think
ing public is no longer tolerant OF
such tactics and the intelligent can
didate for public Office no longer at
tempts them-Las Vegas Review.

It com- prises several rare old coins of the Greek and Roman empire periods; one of the .Pine Tree" shillings of early Colonial days; one of the first dollar pieces ev CT coined; copper cent pieces of various sizes and ages and lastly several specimens of the 'shin plaster" paper money of Civil War times, from three cents up. Taken all together it is of interest to everybody and worth looking at as you are passing the bank.

NEW BUZZ WAGON ARRIVES

Everybody at the Tongass Trading Company is wearing a smile today-their new auto- mobile delivery wagon arrived on the Sampson. Fremont King has hold of the wheel to- day and Is hitting her up to heat the band. Just from hab- 1t. he keeps looking over his shoulder as he goes around the corners to see if the traffic" cop is in sight, remembering the time in Seattle when he had to come through for speeding. The wagon is a Rec, 1900 pound car, of i0-I2 horse pow CT, with low, serviceable wheels and will undoubtedly be mon- ey saver for the Tongass. The boys are already planning an automobile race, the first in Alaska, between the Heckman and Tongass cars for the Fourth of July.

SHOULD BE DONE

At the meeting of the School Board last night the question of the advisability of putting in a business course in the public schools in Ketchi- kan came up for consideration Every member of the school board at that meeting favored business course, providing tho ways and means for such could be raised. This paper desires to go on record at this time with the statement that the Town of Ketchikan owes it to herself and rising gener- ation to provide the youth with the best education possi- ble to fit them in the best and most capapble way to take up their duties of citizenship i'll the years to come. The school boy of today is the business man of tomorrow, and is mon- ey we'll invested to see to it that he has the best training possible to fit him for the re- responsibilities of business and public life. The ordinary high school course is all we'll and good as far as it goes, but it does not go far enough into the things the boy and the girl must know before they are ab- le to cope with life. A bushes course is a different thing, 1t brings them into touch with actual, material business, and gives them stock in trade ob- tainable in no other way, and if there is not money enough to equip and conduct a business department for Ketchikan's schools coming from the ordi- nary channels, it were money we'll invested to increase our tax levy to make up the diff ference.
