 The Daily Alaskan is in receipt of letter from Attorney E. F. Ritchie in which he says Tom Par ker feels justified in filing an action against this paper for libel and esti- mates his damages at $50,000 for publishing a statement to the effect that said Parker attended a meeting of the Valdez Chomber of Commerce which passed resolutions opposing the confirmation of E. w. Exum as United States Marshal of this divis- ion.
 MT. Ritchie says that Parker '.hap- pened into the room to see a man whom he knew was there. while the meeting was in progress, but took no part and he doesn't care a rap whether MT. Exum gets to be Mar shal or not.
 Parker also writes that he is not a member of the Chamber, has never taken sides with any aspirant for a federal position, knows nothing against Exum, other than what he read in the public press, and upon this he had never expressed an opin- ion. Under the circumstances we must admit that an injustice has been done MT.

GOOD ALASKAN ARTICLE

Under the caption of "Will the New Administration Open Alaska" Leslie's Illustrated Weekly contains a forceful article from the pen of Henry Roberts, in which he shows the neglect of this territory by the government and what would be the results if the residents were permit ted to develop it's great resources. A comparison Is also made of the treatment accorded by the Canadian government to its provinces, where land is free and everything done to promote the welfare and comfort of the settlers, while in Alaska pros- pectors, homesteaders and capital ists are warned to keep out, by with drawing the land from entry.

In the November Woman's Home Companion a woman contributor tells how, with the assistance of her servant, Maggie she trained her daughter Helen for marriage Robert. Following is an extract:
 For time her most serious trouble seemed to lie in buying meats. Our bill increased alarmingIy. One morning I heard Maggie remark:

 And directly she could spare time her practical course of training as a purchasing and disbursng agent Maggie, the faithful began struct her in plain cooking.
 All this has not been easy for Helen her mother. But it will make things much easier for Helen and her husband. Doubtless will mistakes The best and most experienced of us older women do that. But she will cover those mistakes with brave smile. Her hus band will gaze at her in helpless dismay while she impores him to take her home mother until servant is installed her kitchen Above all things she will know the purchasing value of her husbands salary, because she has learned it. as she should-at her mothers expense.
 Last night. when she turned over the bank and account books she said Robert:

laughing BIRDS
NOT HEALTHY FOR
fruit FLY

Laughing jackasses may mean the
end of the fruit fly on the Hawaiian
Islands IL is maintained that they
are the deadly enemy of the insect
and incidentally of rats. Laughing
jackasses are birds, obtain their name
from the noise they make, and have
their home in Australia.
Two of these birds are now in the
possession of William Miles, secre-
tary of the mayor, and the expert
ments he has conducted show that
they are the destroyer of the fruit
fly. A ban against the expectation
OF the birds has been ordered by the
Australian authorities, as they are
valued there as destroyers of insects
and small animals which injure fruit
and grain.
Efforts are being made by Miles
TO have the Australian government
allow a dozen of these birds to be
shipped here, for breeding purposes.
He is confident he will be able to
import that number, and is equally
confident that his experiments will
prove beyond doubt that laughing
Jackasses can be used to rid Hawaii
of the fruit fly.

RUBBER MARKET DULL
AFTER LONDON SALE

Dune Review has the following to
say regarding the condition of the
rubber market, speaking under date
of May 8: The local market was
very dull this week, but, on the
whole, quotations were fairly well
sustained. II was thought that the
level at which rubber is now selling
would tend to stimulate demand, but
little. If any, improvement has been
noted so far, manufacturers generally
operating on a very moderate scale
and mainly TO ractual current require
ments. The most important event of
the week was the London auction
sales of plantation grades. The offer
ings were liberal, the amount being
given as 1900 tons, but nevertheless,
the demand was good and the prices
obtained showed some advance Scrap
rubber continues in good demand,
with moderate supplies and prices
steady"

which is practically made, promises
to break all records; all signs point
TO a wonderful yield Of cotton, and
