Instantly the applause broke from
the galleries and senators on the
Democratic side joined in enthusiastic
hand-clapping, nearly ever Democrat

After the vote Senator LaFollette
said:

tariff act of 1909 was but little short
of crime; this bill passed is not a
Democratic measure but is a protec-
tive measure. Every change made by
the finance committee was made by
way of adjustment to a protective
basis, except such as free wool and
free sugar, which were determined
upon outside"
Senator Po1ndexter said of his vote:
l voted for the senate tariff bill be-
cause 1t is as whole a better bill
than the Payne-Aldrich law, now in
force. Furthermore, it contains an in
come tax which we have been trying
to get for 20 years.
Some of its rates are too high and
some are too low-but its general
average on manufactures is high
enough. It's classification is far from
scientific, but not more so than the

THE NEW BREED OF RAILROAD
MANAGERS


The old-fashioned railroad president
thought he was doing pretty we'll if he
managed his railroad successfully. He
of the new ert regards it as necessary
to manage the public also-sometimes
a more difficult matter, as Mr.. Charles
S. Mellen found it to be. The retire
ment of Mr.. Mellen, perhaps the last
of the "old breed to hold such con-
spicuous post, leads The Railway Age
Gazette to philosophize little on the
passing of the old order-"an epoch"
this country" Under the old regime,
while railways were theoretically pub
lie service corporations, they were not
SO in practise, says this journal; and
they were not SO regarded by their
managers, who believed that it was al
most their sole concern to earn div
idends. Says the writer:
THE law regarded railways as pub
lie servants. The managers recognized
the theory, but to large extent ig-
nored it in practise. They submitted
to the letter of legal provisions re-
garding rates and service, only in the
measure that these were vigorously
enforced by unusually energetic and
aggressive public officials. But they
often did not conform even to the let
ter of the statutes. and very COM
monty they violated the spirit of their
function of public service.
During the last ten years, under
the pressure of public regulation and
public opinion, the attitude and con-
duct of railway managers have been
undergoing a remarkable change. This
has been due in no small measure to
changes in the personnel of the man.

transportation have demonstrated
theirstatesmanlike qualities by adapt

the development of conditions to which
they could not adapt themselves, have

ARMY OF MEN FOR
 JUNEAU INDUSTRY

The erection of a large concrete product plant in Juneau, mention of which was made in The Daily Empire a short time ago, is now fully assured, official announcement having been giv- en out today by the management of the Concrete Products Manufacturing company, under which name the con- cern is to transact business in this city. The company will soon begin the erection of it's plant, which when completed will employ an army of men. The machinery and material for the new enterprise has arrived and it is expected that the work of con- struction will begin at once.
 Speaking of the enterprise, the management says: "The new company will manufacture all kinds of building units, out of concrete, such as build ing blocks for walls, bricks, chimney blocks, billings for foundations, sanitary sewer pipe, all sizes, together with an endless variety of ornamental products for porches, and garden furniture
 Tt is also the intention to build concrete scows for the transportation of the raw material, as well as the finished product.
 "The site for the buildings will have piling foundation, as we'll as the dock and warehouse for the storing of the finished products.
 Steam curing is the most essen tial point, particularly in this North ern climate. in order to facilitate the curing of the products, and besides it enhances the value over the old meth cd of curing immensely.
 Altogether it will be a strictly mod ern plant, equipped with the latest i'm proved labor-saving appliances"

HUNGRY HORSES FORGED
 TO EAT RABBIT FLESH


 That horses are carnivOrous Gni- mals, when forced to it, was demon strated clearly in the stampede to the Chisana, as Milo Saulich, who recently returned to Dawson, tells of having been som .'elled to feed his stock noth- .ug Luz rabbits, and willow twigs for weeks. Three of the four horses that MT Sauich took to the scene of the strike survived the ordeal, while the strength of one gave out and the stam- peder was forced to kill him.
 Mr. Saulich is of the opinion that there are 150 head of horses in the diggings at the present time, and all of them are suffering for want of food, as there is absolutely no feed of any kind to be had.
 For a time the horses were reluct- ant about eating the rabbit flesh, but after a time they ate it with apparent relish.
 The returning stampeder was among the first to leave for the dig gings by the way of Gulkana, and has spent more than a month in the Vii cinity of the strike.

WIRELESS CONNECTIONS
 WITH THE NORTH
%

SEATTLE, Nov. 15.-Puget Sound mariners are much interested in the announcement that the Canadian gov ernment has decided to eliminate the dead" section along the British Co., lumbia coast by ordering the construc- tion of a new wireless station on Chat ham Point, which lies almost half way between Cape Lazo and Alert bay, and ultimately connect with Prince Rupert, from which place Ketchikan and Northern points may be reached.
 With the establishment of the sta tion steamships plying up and down the British Columbia coast will never be out of touch with the wireless sta tiOns between Victoria and Prince Ru- pert. The radio-telegraph department, it is said, is now considering the pro- pOsal to build the new Chatham Point tower.
 Owing to the exceptionally high hills which rise almost perpendicularly from the tortuous channel between Cape Lazo and Alert Bay it is impossible for these two stations to communicate at any time. When the coastwise steamships are in this dead" stretch they cannot dispatch or receive any messages. The station of Chatham Point would do away with this non- communicative section, and vessels equipped with wireless would no soon CT slip out of the radius of one sta tion than they would be within the range of the next wireless tower.
 Although the station which, accord ing to reports, is to be Buildt at Lan- gara Island off the northwest corner of the Queen Charlotte Islands, may be built by the Dominion government, it is not certain that the lofty mast will not be raised there for some time at any rate. When transpacifc steam ships are running into Prince Rupert the tower will be needed there, but it will not be required for some time yet.

 CURACAO EASY TO RAISE, THINKS CAPT. MCCARTHY
O-O


 Capt. C. P Mccarthy of the steamer Delhi. now in port, stated to The Elm pire Saturday that it is very probable that the steamship Curacao, now par tially submerged at Swift's cannery on the West Coast of Prince of Wales, will be raised and proceed to her home port under her own steam.
 Divers recently examined the Cura- cao and found that her machinery is uninjured and as bright as when she struck. Two holes have been punched in her hull which will be plugged up, and it is believed that when her car go is unloaded there will be little diff culty in floating her.
 The Delhi when she leaves Juneau, will go to the West Coast and take on about two hundred tons of cargo which have been removed from the Curacao, after which no more efforts will be made to raise the vessel until spring, when the stormy season is over.

PIONEER OF NOME
 TELLS OF ARCTIC


 Capt. A. F.. Ludlow, pioneer whaler and prospector, who is now in Jul neau enroute to the Pioneers Home at Sitka. has spent 43 summers of his life in the North, 2S of which were aboard ship following the calling of catching polar whale. For the lat ter l5 years, however. he has been prospecting on Seward peninsula. Speaking of Louis Lane and his schooner Polar Bear, Capt Ludlow said: T notice Louis has gone into Walker, A. l.. Spaeth, A. w. Schla- which marks the boundary between Alaska and Canada. He has certain ly picked out a good place to winter. Yes, l was there in 1875. We were catching bowheads.
 . "On our charts we whalemen called it The Mudhole' on account of the shallow water in Camden bay and be- cause it was full of polar whales. It lt-A4ihhNh uo Oi q AAluuuOAC Iull Ol CCAo There were 16 ships in the fleet of 1875 and We all got all we could han dle. Our ships filled up in a few days at Camden taking the whales as fast as they could be cut up, and squared away for home. The other twelve flted up just about as quickly at Re turn Reef. about 25 miles west of Camden Bay and they squared away for home also. Those were good days.
 This Return Reef, running out from the coast forms wicked trap for the uuwary. At certain seasons or most any time for that matter the ice pack may come down ugon you and if you are close in and on the east side of the reef you're, caught. that's all, and there's no telling when you'll get out
 fin 1924 Sir John Franklin, who had left his ships farther east reached Re turn Point in small boats and after camping there for a time returned to his ship. It is from this circumstance that the point gets it's name. If Sir John had continued 40 miles farther west he would have discovered the long sought Northwest Passage, and have reached the Pacific.
 "Afterward I was in Nome when Capt. ROal Amundsen came through with the little Gjoa and We gave him a royal reception.

PERSEVERANCE MEN
 HAVE FINE HOME
O O

The new service buildings for the Alaska Gastineau company's Perse- verance mine crews and administra tion are practically completed and are now being put to use in part. By the end of this week or early next week all of them will be occupied With these new buildings a working force of 800 can be very comfortably cared for. The structures just com pleted consist of the Main building or boarding house, the staff house, and a new bunk house.
 The main building is in the form of letter "T,' the main structure be- ing 40x150 with a wing setting off 5Ox70. It is two stories and basement. The first floor contains the large din ing room, seating a crew of 800, a small dining room for the staff, seat ing 40; kitchen with it's cold stor age plant and other adjuncts. The sec ond floor contains a large club room, reading room, general offices and store rooms. The bowling alley is in the basement.
 The club room is provided with bill Hard and pool tables which are now be- ing set up, and the reading room is large and comfortable. The dining room occupies the entire first floor of the main structure, while the kitchen is in the center wing and the service to the dining room radiates from it. The kitchen is worthy of notice, it has been modernized right up to the minute. A fine bakery is part of 1t, cold storage plant is adyantageOusly placed and power elevators run direct to the stores on the floor above. A high pressure boiler furnishes heat for cooking purposes, and all kitchen ma chinery, such as grinders, etc., are moved by electric motors. There are also two low pressure boilers in the basement to furnish heat for all of the buildings in the group except the staff which has it's own heating plant. Every arrangement for perfect sani- tation has been carried out.
 The new bunk house is 30X90 and has room for 120 men. It, like the main building, is thoroughly modern. It is furnished we'll and made very comfortable. There are drying rooms, change rooms and baths. Immediate ly in front of this building and over looking the valley the foundations have been laid for another building just like it that will be built next spring. The old boarding house will immediately ly be remodeled into a bunk house which. added to the old bunk house, now in use brings the capacity of the combined building to 300, making to- tai bunkhouse accommodations at the present time or as soon as the changes are made APO. There are now 300 at the camp.
 The staff house stands out on the point of the bluff and has a sweeping view of the valley. It contains 22 bed rooms and parlors and is made very comfortable with up-to-date lavatOries and all the adjuncts of a home, except the kitchen and dining room. The staff is provided for by a staff dining room in the main building. This building is heated by it's own plant, hot water system.
 Down in the valley several nice cot tages are being finished for the men with families, and the old staff house is to be converted into an apartment house for the same purpose It will be divided into three and four-room flats.
