SPEEEWElL,

In a recent issue of the Journal
! took the position that the officers
OF jackson county should be placed
on salaries. My figures drew from
the treasurer a correction stating,
that he did not get any commission
on the state tax, and the road funds
OF the various townships. This be-
ing true. | still take the position
that the treasurer's office should
be abolished. We want such re-
forms in Jackson county as will
place us in the front rank of the
counties of Western North Carolina,
I passed over the road improve
ments from Cullowhee to Sylvia, and
] consider them magnificent. A
good road from Sylvia to Cullowhee
will be an example for the other
sections of the county to follow.
lhe writer hopes to see a public
CLOCK placed on top of the new
court house at Sylvia.
Inc Cullowhee roller mill is in
operation now, and doing excellent
Work. This means a great deal for
the people OF upper jackson.
Inc writer made a flying trip to
BrySOn City afternoon.
Mrs. Emma hickman of Beta was
a welcome visitor to Speedwell last

Rats do sometimes steal matches
and start fires. Proof for skeptics
For an hour yesterday afternoon
smoke from nobody knew where
sifted through the six-story tena-
ment house at 1874 Cannon Street,
on the East Side. Persistent sniff
fling traced it to the kitchen of Solo,
mon Lichblaum on the third floor.
1t was curling through a crack un-
der the sink.
Solomon called the firemen. They
tore up the floor and found a rats
nest made of rags. The rags were
smouldering. In another hour the
rat family would have had no home.
All my life people have been
telling me that rats are responsible
for some tenement fires, but l new
er believed it until now" said Bat
tolion Chief Helm.

EVOLUTION OF WHITE

London.-Lectu1ing here on fTh< Heredity of Albinism and Piebaldisn In Man." Prof. Karl Pearson attacked
 the Mendelran theory and said wer' it to be accepted 1t would be neces sary for both parents to have laten aIbinim for their offspring to be al binos. By considering the occurrencs of a.binism in colorsd people one re. alized that In the phenomenon ont was getting considerable way to- ward the evolution Of white from col. ored people.
 Prof. Pearson said that in the course of evolution the whites had been evo- lved from the colored. He had no hesitation In saying that if one traced the ancestry Of those present far he would come to dark skinned ances- tors.
 Given a few generations and abso- Iutc power to do as he liked. Prof. Pearson declared he would get whits man from a dark race. He showed photogra phs of albinos and their me- gro parents. but said it was impossi- ble to get a dark child from a white race

The bill to give Alaska a government railroad is now sure to become a jaw within. a year. The sum 0; $%9 oco.oOf will be given for the purpose Of open ing to development a great part of Alaska and the result wil lbe nasni' ncent.
 But there is a queer side to all this Here in Nome we have a railroad which would help to do for this part of Alaska what the governmens road will do for other parts but while a great sum of money is suppic1 treie taxes here prevent our road from op- erating. If memory Is not at fault the Juneau legislature took u, tGe matter of this tax with view to memor- iaiixing congress to remove this mileage tax but some membcw of thn senate objected because such action would mean benefits to ro,ds toaar,ls which they were not we'll disposed. None of the Nome delegation made these objec- tons. of course. but the mel who did make them certainly cannot have very broad ideas about w,,t they owe their territory

The new mining law is. like every other. Q question witi two sides to 1t. Many people seem to think that 1t is 'n conflict with the federal law but re- turning legislators declare that there is really no mining law In Alaska but what they call judge made rules. Somc say that association claims were ''growed" rather than made and that any law which compcls people |" per form sioo worth of work on each twenty acres of such associations does not conflict with any law whatever.

Nome should get down 10 work Ir earnest to receive the visitors who are coming here some time next month. It might be very advisable to have 1t arranged to inform the visi- tors of the various resources of the peninsula. Amongst the people com ing are the representatives of large publications throughout the states and much good might be done by let ting them know of the quartz. dredg- ing and other possibilities which this section has in abundance. All the other parts of Alaska are getting ad- vertised widely through the agitation concerning the coal and railroad mat ters but Nome has suffered quite a little by Its comparative silence.
