bags and baskets on their backs. or
in sledges they draw along with them.
Skating is as easy and natural to them
as walking, and they skim over the
Ice with such speed that the eye has
some difficulty in following them. in
former years wagers were often laid
among the most swift Dutch skaters
as to who could keep up with stated
train, skating upon the canals that
run parallel to the railway, and in
keep up with the engine but they
would at times shoot forward and
keep ahead of 1t for a few minutes.
People skate from The Hague to Am
Eterdam and back again the same day;
the Utrecht university students leave
that town in the morning. dine at Am
sterdam and are at home before night;
the wager of going to Amsterdam to
Leyden in little more than an hour has
several times been laid and won. And
II is not only the wonderful speed but
the unerring surefootedness with
which such long journeys are accom-
plished that is worthy of admiration.
There are peasants who skate by
night from one town to another.
Young men go from Rotterdam to
Gouda; at Gouda they buy long pipe

carrying it safe and sound in their
hand. Sometimes as one is walking
by canal human figure will be seen
to shoot past like an arrow.

scends. but no one heeds it. We turn

A city cuuncIi is a public b"dy and IS supposed to transact it's business in public. When ;t matter comes up for treatment il is supposed that the min utes of the meeting will only show just exactly what transpired and an official of the council is supposed to transact the citys business only ac- cordlng [" the directions given to him in public. For instance. If a rcsoIn- tion is voted on which conveys only half the intention which the rcsolu- tion is proposed to fulfil that business Is only partially transacted md when this resolution does not instruct fully in public as to the course to be taken by an official in the matter. the official can hardly act regularly when instructed privately as to the hidden portion of the meaning of the resolu- tion.
 If the facts were otherwise the public would be exposed to some very grave ddngers. and this can be said without alluding 10 the Nome coun- cil or any other council in particular. It is matter of general principle.

A snob is q person who believes he is better than other people. but is afraid the world will not suspect it unless he keeps advertising the fact.
 An aristocrat knows he is better than other people and presumes they have good taste enough to know it too. This enables him to make the world happier by mingling with it without fear of soiling his standing.

NOME, ALASKA, MARCH 13. 1913

Do the women of Nome really want the vote? Have the women of all Alaska been breeding in silence all the time over their compulsory absten- tion from the voting booth?
 These are questions which one of NOme's senators wishes to have an- swered before supporting the hill that is now before the legislature
 It would really be hard to say why such bill was introduced. The wo- men of the territory have never bothered their heads about looking for vote and the very great majority of them probably do not care in the least whether they vote or not.
 In this territory the great questions to b" solved by the people of the ter ritory relate to physical development New mining laws, changes in the criminal and civil code and roads and railroads are the chief subjects with which the legislature should concern itself, and women would be, no doubt, quite willing to let men handle those affairs for themselves as they are entirely within the masculine province.
 Women hy voting would certainly do no harm and in matters connected with moral welfare and educational advancement their aid would be in valuable but all such matters remain
