mighty and that Truth will set them
free, the world will continue to go
as it has gone for all the years since
the day OF the crucifiXion. And men
and women will still go to their
graves who never knew the truth,
yet are buried beneath tons of flow
crs, are immortalized in prayer and
sermon, to be remembered for the
ostentation and display of their re-
ligion. And also, men and women
will continue to die and go before
their Maker unheralded by the thun-
der of the organs tones, unhallOwed
by the words of the preacher-un-
shrven and MISUNDERSTANDING silently
into the bosom of the earth without
single prayer but with unseen
diadems upon their heads whose
every flower is truth, whose every
jewel is tear from one who knew
them in life for what they were
members of the army of the Lord
whom truth had made free.
And even as the eyes of Dives,
looking upward rested upon the face
Of Lazarus who had entered into
the joys of his reward, so will the
eyes of the many, whose memories
have been sainted by mortal prayer
and mortal song, look with appeal
into the eyes of those who knew the
truth and We're, by the truth, mada
free.

Visitors From Loco.

Allen Robertson and NJ. M. Nc
Queen arrived in the city Saturday
from Loco and Mr.. Allen left over
the Frisco on a business trip to Ma
dill and Mr. Mcqueen left tor Okla
homa City. These gentlemen state
that in their opinion the Stephens
county oil field will prove to be a
big one. Eight rigs are running in
that county now; two of them are
near Loco. They visited the gas
we'll which was brought in there Fri
day.
Mr.. Mcqueen is a California oil
man who has some leases west of
Loco and he was expecting the
driler to reach the third sand at 625
feet and at a depth of 627 feet the
sand was reached and the oil and
water was thrown from the well by
the gas pressure and the gas caught
fire. A small house near the well
was burned to the ground. TWO men
were in the house when the gas was
ignited and so quickly did the flash
of flame come that their faces were
severely burned. The cable was
quickly burned in two and fell into
the well carrying the tools with It,.
Two steam pipes were placed in the
we'll and the flame was extinguished.
Mr.. Mcqueen said he could not make
an intelligent guess at the production
of gas because it was mixed with
oil and water, but in his opinion the
well would produce about two mil
lions of feet of gas per day. Mr..
Mcqueen said that the oil sands
about Wheeler and those about Loco
were very different. The Wheeler
sands are much coarser. He says the
Loco sands resemble very much the
sands in the oil fields in California.

A neighboring exchange tells of a
high school professor who has to
keep a string tied to his hat and eye
glasses to keep from losing them
through absent mindedness. We know
some people who are constantly
losing the truth, but we do not
think it is through absent minded
ness. but through natural depravity
and pure cussedness. They could not
hold to it with a string, like the
professor holds to his hat and glasses.
A log chain of triple strength with
double -annealed links might help
them although grave doubts exist of
their being able to hold on to it even
then.

MOVED BY A COMMON SPIRIT

AVE you noticed that each member of the Territorial Leg
 islature is home booster? The gentlemen from each ot
 the divisions seem think that their home sections are the very Alaska and all satisfied of their future poductivenes and prosperity And then too must be said that their visions are bbed cabned and confined for while extong their districts they unite chorus and acclaim all Alaska.
 These men coming from sections widely remote are im- bued with the Alaskan Sp-thorough loyalty to their homes frsand unedy harmonious their devotion to their com mon country admirable spirit indeed and in every way commendable.
 We have taken hitherto to that Aaskas first oaue is not only being watched by the people of Alaska It's work and methods will be closely scrutnied by the peo pe of not few States and by Washington itself Home rule for Alaska will put trial and assured from the per sonne of the membership and the fine spirit of loyalty to home and country that they display that it will stand the test and be trumphantly vindcated
 Forfteen years by and pen this writer has advocated home rule for the people of Alaska not boon but as the common heritage of the American people, and therefore the oht is here expressed modesy the of the organization f the First Legislative Assembly of Alaska to congratulate the op of the Territory upon the forward step that has been made For it step forward and believe the precursor of still more comprehensive system of government for Alaska

A fitting sequel to the chapter of happenings in Douglas last week was the attempted murder and the accom- plished suicide of Friday, It may be that as Westerners we shall, allow it to pass in the Western way, with but scant notice The hurry and hustle of life precludes the attention to small matters that might sometimes prove beneficial. And in the great, bowling busy West the violent ending of hu- man life is often considered but a small matter. But at least one lesson should be learned, and if it is learned .all is well. Douglas cannot thrive and grow great as home city in the midst of sin and filth and rottenness. And if Douglas is not to be a home city it will be nothing. Justice will have it's sway. and if man is weak there is higher force that will have its sway and correct the evils which have been overlooked. Isn't it about time for the wave?-Douglas Island News.
