 TALKS ABOUT JUNEAU

With a present monthly payroll of $50 900. and one of $2OO,OOO in sight for the summer, Alaska's capital, Ju- neau, is prospering steadily. Accord ing to Edgar c. Raine, deputy collect or of internal revenue, who arrived in Fairbanks recently, the boom is af- fecting everything in the coast camp. Real estate prices have gone up, build ing work is in progress, the hotels are crowded and the houses filled. Ap- pearances indicate that the boom is a lasting one, for the reason that the mining work in progress and planned is of a substantial character Many new properties are being opened up near Juneau, among them some that will rival the Treadwell in immensi- ty.-Fairbanks Times

peaks, Pilatus and Rigi. it's pictur-
esque scenery, and it's own calm Lake
of Lucerne, the quaint old town on
the banks of the River Reuss is a
magnet for all visitors to the land of
William Tell.
Mount Pilatus, nearly seven thou
sand feet high, is the barometer of
Lucerne. By its cap of clouds 1t fore
tells the weather
There is legend about Mount Pi-
latus which says that Pontius PLATE
in his wanderings through the world
impelled at last by horror and re-
morse, committed suicide upon it's
summit. And so the mountain got its
name. For a long time it was con-
sidered haunted, and people were for
hidden to ascend it on Friday. Now
there is hotel on the top, and every
day In the week a train ascends Pila-
tus to the summit.

Mexican Hatred of q. S.

Mexican Hatred of q. s.
To the Editor Of the Evening Star:
While all this fuss in the papers
about President Wilson recognizing
the Huerta government is we'll
enough, what about Huerta and his
followers recognizing the rights of
American citizens in Mexico?
If there is anything a Mexican dis
likes its an American. In Mexico
there is a general aversion to Ameri-
cans, and the rule seems to be to
keep as many Americans out of the
country as possible by any means.
The only thing that has made it safe
for an American in Mexico is the
Mexicans' fear of this country.
II the Huerta government is not
compelled to answer to the United
States for the assassination of Immi-
grafton Inspector Charles G. Dixon,
every American in Mexico may as
we'll mount a Calling gun on his
porch, a rifle in the corner and a
pistol under his pillow. The Dixon
case is going to be a test case. If 1t
Is allowed to pass unnoticed 1t will
be taken as an indication that the
United States does not care or is
afraid to interfere, and no one knows
to what ends the "greasers' will go
then. Let us get at the bottom of the
affair by all means.

Fight for Company's Welfare.
To the Editor of the Evening Star:
Sir--will you permit me through
the medium of your valuable columns
a few lines dealing on the recent fire
in Arlington? If there is one class
deserving praise and respect greater
than another 1t is the employees of
the Arlington Pyralin Company.
These sons OF labor were at their
posts when the fire broke out. Cap
tanned by the foreman of the plant,
they braved death and injury to fight
the flames, all for the welfare of the
company Such men are a credit to
any employment when it comes to
saving life and property. Sir, you
made a slight error when you said
the men refused to go back to work.
That was not the case. The industry
closed down so as to give all the
available power to the water pumps.
As an employee. regret the circum-
stance and am thankful that no life
was lost. Yours trply.
