E. J. SHAW CANDIDATE
 FOR CUSTOMS COLLECTOR

"E. J. Shaw, resident agent of the Moore Wharf company, at Skagway for many years, arrived in Juneau last night. Mr. Shaw is candidate for appointment as U. s. collector Of customs for Alaska, succeeding Col lector J. R. Willis, who yesterday asked the department of the treasury to relieve him by January first.
 MT. Shaw will retire from the Moore Wharf company next week. He is said to have several endorse ments for the collectors office Juneau Dispatch. Oct. II.
 Through MT. Shaw's innate mod esty and dislike 5f publicity, the Alaskan was not informed of the object of his recent trip to Junueau, and it was upon reading the above that we first became aware that he was an aspirant for the position of Collector for this district. At this writing we have been unable to yer ify the truth of the above. If it is true, however, the Daily Alaskan can and does heartily endorse him in his effort to secure the place made vacant by the resignation of MT. Will lis.
 Mir. Shaw has Teen in the employ of Moore's wharf Co. since 1898, and upon the resignation of Mir, c. Wynn Johnston, as manager two years ago, was appointed to fill the vacancy. His connection with the company in the capacity of manager, terminated yesterday.
 Nr. Shaw is well qualified for the office he seeks, and the Daily Alas kan is one of his most sincere we'll wishers wherever his future lines may be cast.

MANY CARIBOU
 ALONG THE TRAIL

That ten caribou visited the crew working along the Valdez trail, near the seven-mile post, was the news brought to town by several of the men who returned last evening Councilman Dan Callahan, who is in charge of the work, said that the animals came within 100 feet of the scraper and seemed to have bus lie tie fear.
 The greatest excitement prevailed along the trail for a few moments, as everybody was looking for some weapon with which to kill some of the caribou, but there was not ev- en a revolver in the crowd. Several of the crew ran about a mile down the trail to get a gun, but when they returned the animals had van isbed.
 Mr, Callahan states that in many places along the trail he has seen fresh tracks of caribou, and that he feels certain that the run this year will be close to town.-Fairbanks Times.

w. E. James, the discoverer of Jh' Chisaua gold diggngs, accompanied bv his wife, passed through here yes terday on his way to his old home in Los .Augeres, Calf. They were south bound passengers on the Prin- ucess Sophia, which sailed from Skagway last night.
 During his stay in SkagWay MT James was interviewed by a Daily Alaskan reporter and gave some interesting and valuable information relative to his five years eperlence in the interior of Alaska prospect ing for quartz leads and placer gold These years were years of toll and hardsnips with only an occasion al gleam of hope and were shared b Mrs. James, who has been his con- stant companion on his prospecting trips. For three years the two had roamed through the almost unknow wilderness of the upper White riy- CT country, had "mushed" over the snows and glaciers in winter and through the swamps and ice cold streams in summer in search of the yeIlew metal, and only twice during that time had they visited Dawson to lay in a fresh supply of provi- sions.
 In the summer of 1912 they were joined by NeIs F. Nelson, and cheer ed up by his companionship, they resumed what they were becoming convinced was an almost hopeless quest. The winter of 1912 had pass ed, and they had only found a few colors along tributaries to Beaver creek in Yukon territory, when they were met an Indain friend of James named Joe, who told them of a quartz ledge on Chatienda creek, a tributary of the Chisana, 2S miles north of the White river. They de- cided to go over and examine the lead and while on their way to il rav. across Carl Whitman, a young trapper and prospector who had been in the country for several year and at their invitation Whitman be- came a fourth member of the party Upon reaching the Chatienda they made camp and commenced to pros pect. and on the third day of last | May James and Nelson found pay dirt at the mouth of a creek above the quartz ledge which they had been directed to by the Indian. They named the creek Bonanza, and later on James and his wife while prosped ing along the channel reached its confluence with Johnson creek, and it was at that point the strike was made that has since made the dis trict famous. The ground looked SC favorable for placer that they com menced to prospect and shortly afte they began work, the richness oj the gravel told them they had reach ed the Fl Dorado of their dreams. A shovelful of gravel taken from rim rock showed values of $25.O0, and later on when James and Nelson be- gan work in earnest on discovery S23,OOO in 20 days was the wonder full result.
 Since that time 5000 people have visited the country, some to To- cate claims and make preparation: for their development, others to get cold feet and turn their faces towarr the outside.

A BAN ON AMERICAN
DANCES

From Europe comes the news
that the leading hotels OF
Switzerland have posted notices
forbidding American dances
This was the result of complaints
filed by British, German and other
foreign tourists, whose sense OF
modesty has been so severely
shocked that they decline to as
sociate with those who indulge IN
the degrading dances
The proprietors of these SWISS
hotels are to be commended, Tor
if American vulgarians behave III
such an outrageous and indecent
manner as to tinge with shame
the checks of the sinners Of En
rope, they can expect no more
than to be called to account. The
self-respecting citizen of this
country have no sympathy Tor
those who go abroad to make III
decent exhibitions Of themselves.
The dances complained OF IN
Switzerland are condemned by
respectable Americans at home,
and it would be surprising If re-
spectable tourists from other
countries would tolerate them.
There is nothing prudish about
the Americans who take these
dances abroad, but it would be
better for them and their country
if they had a higher sense OF
proprieties.- States.

RAILWAY BUSINESS FOR

During May the railways of
the United States received for
their services to the public an
average of 1920, 900 a day: it
cost to run their trains and for
other expenses of operation So
920, 1000 a day; their taxes wer"
$341 800 a day; their operating
income $1,972,322 a day for the
22O,S97 miles Of line reporting or
at the rate of 1898 for each mile
of line for each day. Thus for
every six dollar Of their earnings
which remained available for
rentals, interest ON bonds, ar-
priations for betterments, i'm
proyements and new cOnstruc-
ton, and for dividends, the rail
ways had to pay more than one
dollar in taxes
All of these amounts are sub
stantially greater than the sim

are from the summary OF earn
ings and expenses compiled by
the Bureau of Railway Economics

PROBLEM CONFRONTING
SOUTHERN RICE MEN.

At a largely attended conven-
ton Of Southern rice producers
held at Beaumont, Texas, last
week a resolution was adopted
pledging the planters present and
urging others to retain one bag
out of every five bags produced
this season, the amount so retain
ed to be turned over to the agent
of the Southern Rice Growers
Association to be exported to
foreign markets. The rice so re
tained is to be exported solely for
the purpose Of taking it out OF
the available supply and for pre-
venting its use by spectators IN
bearing down the price of the en-
tire crop.
1t is estimated that the excess
of production over consumption
will reach the neighbOrhood OF
90 per cent, which overplus
would enable spectators to fx
their own price on the farmer g
product, as each farmer would
enter into a scramble to dispose
of his crop before the demand
has been me-. and the buyers
cease to buy. Secretary Ran
dolph figures that the farmer will
realize something on the 20 per
cent of his crop exported. while
the remaining 80 per cent sold on
the local market will net HIM
NOR. than the full crop would
bring should he attempt to sell it
all at home.
The Southern rice planters are
merely availing themselves OF the
well-established principle of po-
litical economy relative to the
power of the troublesome surplus
to govern the price OF the pro-
duet and, by neutralizing that
surplus, they propose to keep the
control of their product in their
own hands.
Perhaps the ultimate and larger
success of the Southern rice
planter will depend not so much
upon his. ability to control the
market as upon his ability to sup
ply rice so cheaply that the mas
ses will be compelled to substi-
tute il for the less wholesome and
more expensive white bread: but
until he shall be able to do that
he is justified in employing for
his own protection the weapons
invented by those who seek to
oppress him.-Country Review.

COMPULSORY ARBITRATION
HAS DIFFICULTIES.

No doubt the law providing for
the compulsory arbitration OF Ia
Dor disputes will be beneficial III
some cases, but it has its difficult
ties nevertheless. For instance,
no commission may compel CIT
izen to work for an employer
against his will, nor is it com
petent for courts to compel an
employer to employ labor at
wages that would result in loss.
Arbitration laws may smooth
out the rougher angles of our in
dustrial problems, but it is vain
to hope that the Millennium shall
ever be ushered in by legislative
enactment. Social justice and
industrial order can result only
from the recognition mutually by
capital and labor Of the respec-
tive rights Of each.-Country ne.
