FIREMEN THANKFUL FOR
 \ GENEROUS ASSISTANCE

The Skagway Fire Department feels the desirability of expressing an appreciation for the many fav- ors and the assistance given them in making their dance a success. AS it is impossible to express this ap- preciation to each one individually. they wish to do so through the newspaper.
 The dance was a pronounced sue cess and the revenue derived from 1t will go a long way toward repleu- ishlng their treasury The ladies of the community supplied the viands. and all who had the pleasure Of eating thereof are convinced that SEagway has cooks that are as ef- ficient in their lines as the firemen are in protecting the city from conflagration. There is a general vote of thanks coming from the fire department, and this article Is in- tended to express it.

The Typewriter a Farm Machine.

The farmers correspondence is
usually woefully neglected. Writing
letter is usually considered by the
farmer a dreaded task, and if the letter
does not get written it does not usu-
ally receive the consideration it de-
serves. Many busy men will not take
time to read a poorly written letter
and if they do, the impression made
by the letter is usually so bad that
its purpose is defeated.
The typewriter is solving this prob
lem for the farmer. He can at least
secure a second hand machine very
cheap. While he can not operate it
rapidly, he can soon learn to write as
rapidly as he could write by hand:
or the wife or children can write the
letter for him. The letter will be neat
and attractive. The typewriter will
increase the effectiveness and self re-
spect of the farmer and be an educa-
tional force with the son and daugh--
ter.

He asserted that of $4,000 Indians in
the United States, II per cent are suf-
fering from trachoma. The incident
of disease varies from 20 per cent
of those examined in Oklahoma to OF

ease was most prevalent among In
dians of the boarding schools and
least among reservation Indians.
Six thousand needless cases of blind
ness occurred in the United States
each year. This statement was made
by Henry Copely Greene, agent for
the conservation of eyesight of the
Massachusetts commission for the

This condition, Mr.. Green said,
was challenge to the medical pro-
fesion and called for the co-opera-
ton of oculists, social workers and
law makers. Much of the needless
blindness, he said, was due to lack
of attention to sore eyes among
babies.

EDITORIAL ASSOCIATION
SAYS DISCOURAGE FAD
OF REFERRING LAWS.

At its recent Getting the Colorado
State Editorial Association adopted
the following resolutions:
WHEREAS, 1t is the duty of the
legislature to enact the laws needed by
the people of the state, and the ini-
tiative and referendum provisions OF
the state constitution were given to
the state to be used only upon the
failure of the legislature to enact laws
of general importance demanded by
the people, and,
WHEREAS, certain people seem to
to have an idea that every measure
passed by the legislature that does
not meet with their approval should
be referred, and that laws embodying
pet theories not of general interest
or Importance should be initiated,
thus placing an unnecessary burden
upon the tax payers of the state
through the advertising of these ini-
tiated and referred laws.
THEREFORE,, BE 1T RESOLVED;
That the Colorado Editorial Associa-
tion deplores the unfair, unnecessary
and unscrupuIous use of the provisions
of the initiative and referendum by
certain interests and cestain people.
not only to further their own selfish
ends and purposes, but also to belittle
the real purpose of the initiative and
referendum, by circulating petitions
to initiate unnecessary and uncalled
for laws and by circulating petitions
to refer, and thereby make inopera-
tive, laws already passed by the legis.
lature that were demanded by the
people.
AND BE IT FURTHER RESOLV-
ED; That the Colorado Editorial Asso-
citation urges the voters of Colorado
to help reduce taxes by refusing to
sign all initiated and referred meas
ures unless each voter shall person
ally investigate the merits of each
proposed measure and shall be person
ally satisfied that such measure is
of statewide interest and importance
and that it is demanded by the people.

SAYS Cancer is Durable.

That cancer of the stomach is a
curable disease was the declaration
of DIR. William d. Mayo, of Rochester,
Minnesota, at the meeting of the Amer
lean Medical association recently.
"A favorable diagnosis can be es-
tablished by simple methods he as
serted. "a history of gastric disturb
ance precedes cancer in a large num-
ber of cases, if not the majority.
Operations for cancer of the stomach
should begin as an exploration. Mod
crate involvement of the pancreas
does not necessarily preclude opera.
ton Palliative operations have a
field of usefulness

tics of signs and symptoms observed
in 1000 patients operated on for can
Ger of the stomach.

June Work With the Bees.

Just how frequently the bees should
be examined is somewhat OF a prob
lem and never more SO than now.
If the queens are young and vigorous
and the winter stores have not been
short, the warm spring weather and
the early dandelion, fruit bloom and
wild flower honey flows have caused
a great increase in brood rearing and
there may be danger of n serious lack
OF feed for the larger number of bees
and larvae now in the hive. Stimu.
lative feeding may be of advantage
in keeping up the brooding during the
lull which usually preccdes the open
in of abe alfalfa.
The supers should be all ready with
sections properly started with the wax
firmly attached to the wood, the sep
arators clean and in their proper
places, and all wedged together reas-
onably closely to prevent excessive
cumming of the sections. There is
little advantage in using sections un-
less the foundation starters are prop
erly attached. If any sections contain
ing clean. drawn COMBS have been
carried over from last season these
should be placed in those supers
which are arranged to go on the hive
first, in order to lure the bees into the
supers and accustom them to store
their honey there. These first supers
should be placed on TIE stronger
hives immcdiately.-We Foster,
State Bee Inspector.

SHORT SESSION
 AMENDM'T UPHELD CHANCELLOR MARTINEAU UNCONSTITUTIONALITY PLEA WILL NOT HOLD GOOD IN
 60-DAY SESSION.

Little Rock, Feb. 5.-Few members of the legislature, even to the ones who have argued in the courts in fla vor of the unconstitutionality of the oo-day session of the legislature. be- iieve the supreme court will declare the act improperly submitted to the people. Those who are opposed to the limiting of the session to this snort time will attack the constitu- tional amendment in the courts in an- other manner, along the lines indi- cated by Chancellor John E. Mar tineau, when he upheld the legality of the amendment.
 In deciding against the obiectors to the 60day session, Chancellor Martineau declared the amendment adopted, for there was no alternative for him under the law He suggest ed, however, that the legislators have warrant issued on the auditor, call ing for over $6 per day as per diem for one of the members. The auditor would; of course, decline to issue a voucher on the warrant, and in this manner the case could be brought in- to court, on mandamus proceedings. which would permit the legal status of the amendment.
 The trouble with the apoand,,o,+ and the legality of it, is that too many people voted for it, is the terse way one member of the senate sums up the matter.

RfEDY VANCE DENIED
 PAROLE BY PEN BOARD

Little Rock, Feb. 5.-The new peni- tentiary board, in its meeting Tues day afternoon, began about as others have in recent years when there was a change in administration de- nying parole to Reedy Vance. Vance is serving a 2l-year sentence for murdering a Chinaman in this city. He killed other men previous to this crime, and after serving a num- Der of years, was paroled. He was found one day in Little Rock partial ly intoxicated and armed with a large revolver. He was looking for trouble when arrested, and the penitentiary board ordered him back to the state prison. Vance is a guard at the pen itentiary.
