New strikes In Alaslka always lead one to thinking what queer mortala we are. The strike or the reported strike in the Shushana has got the feet of very many itching although as far as accounts 90 there has been nothing moro struck in that country up to the present than was struck on
 Kieary creek last winter.
 A strike of spot in a new country of course. always creates the hope that as 1t is new country there may be much more gold than that which
 has been discovered. while in a coun-
 try which has been for . long time
 settled c strike usually gives the i'm
 pression that there cannot be much
 moro of it.
 There is not a man who has been several years in Alaska and following strikes who does not know that on the trai, between any two camps can be found men going both ways. One Is breaking his neck to get to the place and the other Is breaking his neck to 70 where the other fellow quit.
 "Go into a new country and stay with it." is a phrase which has been heard SO often that 1t has become a classic. Everyone swears he will do It and no one does 1t unless an excep- t,onai few. The same old spirit of rowing that sent us all to Alaska in the first place gets at us periodically and if ever a great artist comes to make a ngurative statue of the ty- pical Alaskan he will probably put wings on his ankles all same Pegasus. Alaskans are like everyone else in iov- ing their home but the great differ ence is that Alaskans always think home is somewhere else.

NOME, ALASKA, JULY 90. 1918.

The idea of planting wild ncweri h the city is one that observes to ma teriaIixe and the help of everyone will probably be given to the ladies who have now taken the work fin hand.
 our material surroundings have a very strong influence on our thoughts and temperament. No one would think of living in bare. unfurnished. undecorated room if he could DO 'si- bly avoid it and the sorroundinss in a city are equally important although not perhaps 90 noticeable because of the greater space.
 Everyone can se that hildren raised in bright surroundings grow up brighter looking and handsomer than the unfortunate ones who are compel led to live in less inviting environ ment. As the grade of the occupation of a man can usually be judged by his appearance and bearing so will the porroundings of people exercise an 
 effect which comes so subtly and grad uslly that no one notices it.
 Carelessness with respect to envir- onment almost invariably leads to carelessness in dress and department. One can easily recognize the truth Of this if he goes into a beautiful build ing with soiled clothes on him. Even one notices something wrong with himself if his shoes are not kept c'ean. When a man has good clothes their newness is offset even In his own eyes by the dirt on the leather below. Az . matter of fact the conditions Of ones shoes affects his bearing and gives him a careless feeling"
 These are little things which every one notices but the lessons presented by them are very often lost. We do not always pause to remember that when such small causes have such effects larger causes have greater ef- feet.
 Bright dre-s Is not always by any means meant to attract favorable mo- tice. Even those who wear 1t some- times fail to see that 1t rather makes us look brightly on the world than the world look brightly on us. It has been said that Parislans are the best dressed people In the world because their city is the most beautiful city The very fact that such a statement could be made and be accepted goes to show the effect which sorroundtngs

PARIS CATCHES SECOND
WIRELESS MESSAGE
Tests With Arlington, How
ever, Have So Far Proven
Unsatisfactory.

Although the wireless station on the
Eifrel Tower in paris caught another
short complete message yesterday from
tho wireless operators at Arlington, Va,
tho days interchange Of long-range talk
was decidedly unsatisfactory. The ap-
paratus at Arlington strained to catch
what the Partisan operators were say
ing. and although they caught some faint
radio signals, and knew that some one
was pressing the keys In an effort to
make himself understood across the At
lantic, no coherent messages were re-
ceived here.
The apparatus IL powerful enough when
Il gets tuned UP to its work, but it is be-
lieved that storms over the Atlantic have
put the Intervening ether out of whack
so to speak. which makes it practically
impossible to get q radio signal across
the ocean.
In addition to atmospheric troubles, the
scientists and army men at Arlington
have had considerable difficulty with q
station operated by newspaper The
there was much trouble. Now the news.
paper tower has promised to keep out OF
| the field for a week. Other stations have
promised to do the same.
Not much progress Is expected to be
made in these transatlantic messages al
this time, it was said at Arlington last
night. Unfavorable static conditions are
the chief trouble. There probably will be
better chance for complete interchange
when the Eiffel Tower station has beer
equipped with q more powerful set OF
instruments. A cable message from Paris
last night gave information of the same
static trouble and also OF Interference by
other stations.

7. {. WILL EXPLAINS VISIT
Says Suffrage Leaguers
Planned to Air Views Before
President Wilson.

Reasons why the executive committee
of the District of Columbia Suffrage
League recently endeavored to get an
audience with President Wilson were ex-
planned by Secretary Thomas E. Will at
an open-air meeting held last night at
Sth street and Market place. Mr.. Will
said the President was too busy to receive
the members of the committee at present
and asked that they submit their matter
in writing.
This We shall probably do said Mr..
VIII. Nevertheless. since our business
was public and not private, We are will
ing to take the public into our confidence
and tell them why we sought the Presi-
dents ear.
'Our first object was to present certain
facts regarding the government Of the
District of Columbia, with reasons why,
in our judgment, an American form of
government should be re-established in
the Nations Capital
Our second object was stated thus:
although we have no candidate to pre-
sent we desire to confer with you regard

THIRD PARTY IN HOUSE
PLANNING FOR future
Independent Organization in
View, With No Affi|iation
With Republicans.

The progressives, projected as the new
minority party of the House, planned last
night to perfect their organization here
April at a conference which is to be
wide open to the public. This Is a radical
departure from traditional custom of
party conferences at Washington and is
part Of the reform propaganda. They al
ready have tested the majority senti-
ment regarding committee representa-
ton.
Promise Of Committee Places.
Democratic Leader Underwood, as head
of the ways and means committee. which

MAY ASK POLICE
TO AID CLEANUP
House-to-House Canvass Be-
ing Considered by the
Committee.
COMMISSIONER HARDING
IN FAVOR OF THE PLAN
Boy Scouts and Public School Chill
dren Expected to Be Big Fac
tor in Movement.

A hOuse-to-house canvass by members
Of the police force for the purpose of en-
listing the aid of all the citizens OF
Washington in cleanup week. which is to
begin April IA, may be ordered by the
District Commissioners.
This is one of the measures for making
the sanitary campaign thorough sue
cess that is being considered by the clean
city committee and the District heads.
w. H. Richardson. chairman Of the COM
mittee. will confer with Commissioner
Johnston. who has supervision of the po-
lice department, early this week In re-
gard to the matter.
Yesterday, Mr.. Johnston had long
talk with Engineer Commissioner Hard
ing concerning the cleanup week plans. II
was suggested that the police could be q
big factor in the undertaking by calling
the attention OF each householder to the
importance of their cleaning up their
own premises.
One Commissioner Favors It.
Col. Harding is understood to be in
favor of the participation OF the police
in the crusade to make Washington a
healthier and cleaner city, but nothing
definite will be done until Commissioner
Johnston has had opportunity to inves-
tigate the proposal.
Mai. Sylvester. superintendent of po-
lice. has expressed a desire to cooper
ate with the committee. but as yet the
plan for a house-tO-hOuSe canvass by the
police has not been presented to him.
Effort is to be made to enlist in the
crusade every agency which can be en-
ployed to advantage. Boy Scouts and
public school children will be big factors
in the propaganda. Arrangements fol
their participation in the crusade have
not been completed, but the details vii
be worked out by Scoutmaster Martin and
Supt Of Schools Davidson and presented
to the clean city committee within the
next week or two.
1t was pointed out by Chairman Rich
ardson yesterday that the time is not
too soon for householders to begin I'M
proving the sanitary conditions of their
own premises. The more work of this
character that is done now the less diff
cult will be the task OF the committee
and those cooperating with 1t to make
Washington '-spotless town" during the
week beginning April Ia.
Responses from citizens associations
which have been requested to direct the
they have supervision are expected early
this week. The city will be distncted
according to the replies received, SO tina,
no section of the National Capital will &C
unprovided for. 1t te expected that the
campaign map will be completed about
the first Of April.
