 Tn Canadian government has ex- hibited a splendid enterpr'oe in fit- ting out 70 fine an expedition and for such a lengthy period. The confidence reposed by our neighbors in the capa- city and talents of Mir. Steffanson constitute a very rem .rkable com pliment and one which should show the people of Nome that very great things are expected from the journey into the Arctic desolation. Mr. Stef- fanson has reached a high plane in the world of exploration and Nome will wish that he has still greater honors yet in store f.r him. Indeed. 1t is not too much to expect that some day we shall be prouder than ever to say that he and his expedition had our town as their base of supplies.

A we'll known former resident of Nome who is again in the city haa pointed out the fact that the dredges of Seward Peninsula are owned ale most entirely by people of what might be called medium means. No great corporation has grabbed the mining ground of this district and many of the investors are people who live in Nome and have made their money here and are now investing 1t in stock.
 The blessing of the dredges h ap. parent at the present time more clearly than ever before. During the present dry spell of weather matters would be in . very serious condition inde q were 1t not for the fact that machines can be run and mine without very much water.

We notice that in most of the cities of Alaska they use the caucus or mass meeting system of placing in nomina : ton members for the municipal off, fices. and as many men are placed in nomination as their friends. or they themselves desire. Then commit tee Is nominated to receive declina- tons, in case any one should not care to make a contest for election. Those who are left are placed on the ballot
 and the electors take their choice. In this country. where party lines are not strictly drawn. we believe that Is the most democratic way of choos- ing city officials. It does away with the usual jeaiousies and personalities and bitterness that always accom- pany the contests between "Citizens"
 and "Peopie's" and Taxpayers" and
 "scrubs" and Bull Head" tickets.
 skagway has no time 10 spend in
 fighting among its citizens. The bet
 ter way you'd be to put all candi- dates on ono ticket and then com- pletely and everlastingly knife all can didates who in the past have used their votes to "get even" with someone. In such a contest the voters often lose sight of the real benefits to be gained, because they want to vote against some one who has sassed their kids, or who eats with knife. or who is Q fighter. or who h . good fellow. or who is most anything but a man qualified to perform the duties of ai- derman.
 There is nothing In the name of Citizen" or the name Taxpayer" that means anything to the voter. It is usually a catch to round up votes for some faction. The better way in small communities is the old mass meeting style. with all candidates on the one ticket and then let the voters choose uninnuenced by passion or re- venge or Jealousy. skagway can't prosper and fight. The two never did mix and never win.-Skagway

NOME, ALASKA, JULY 1s, 1913.

It is . certain fact that trcde ant industry. far from being the c.uc' of wars, is really the greatest ob . acle to waSing them. Of all the countries now engaged in fighting or in unsettled condition none Is ono that has ever stood high in the industrial or tsading scale. China is awakening from her centuries of somnoience, Mexico lives st!ll In the middle age. and the countries in the oouthesast of Europe, while enjoying high civil ixation. have never taken prominent parts In international commerce.
 Countries which are successful in- dustrially are like in l'viduais who arc successful; they ear the danger of change or upheavals and are perfect ly satisfied to pursue the even tenor of their way in their own pleasant grooves.
 Some day China will awake to the modern needs of its people and will create industries which will take the place of the pipe smoking dreams of her people. Mexico will break through the isolation which her position on this continent has caused and she will be one day . thriving nation. moved by the desire to carry on a stable government.
 The great powers nowadays are mighty careful of entering war unless with some little country which can be easily vanQuished. They cannot af- ford the luxury.

Village Schools Open.

The public schools of the village
opened Monday with an enrolment
Of 534, and it is safe to assume that
before the season is far advanced the
enrolment will reach 600. The
names of the teachers were given in
last weeks ISSUE More school room
is needed. In the high school IS
pupils can be conveniently seated
and the enrolment is 100, and the
problem to be solved is how to care
for that number of pupils with IS or
80 seats. If manual training,
domestic science and agriculture
were offered, as they should be, the
high school enrolment would go to
over 200. In the near future more
room will have to be provided for
Princeton's growing school popu-
latiOn.

A Japanese Fes tival.

Last Wednesday evening the "Girls
of the Sixties" were pleasantly en-
tertained by Mrs. Mary Rines.
Covers were laid for twelve and the
room and table were beautifully dec
grated with flowers, Japanese vases,
lanterns, fans and draperies. The
fayors were Japanese dolls. and fans.
During the entertainment one of the
stronger sex inadvertently strolled
in upon the gathering but won popu-
lar favor and pardon for his in
trusion by remarking that he had
spent dime that evening for admis-
sion to "Happyland'' and had
evidently not gained admission to
the genuine Happyland after all.
The ''girls' journeyed homeward
at 1890, all agreeing that they had
had one of the most enjoyable even
ings since their organization.
The circle consists of twelve ladies,
most of whom were present. They
are Eta Libby, Phoebe S. Borden,
Waite Peterson, Mary Huse, Chris
tina Rines, Ellen Howard, Cathe-
rine Apologize, Eva Keith, Mary
