SOMETHING FOR STAMPEDERS TO
 THINK ABOUT
O-O

THERE are few things that one
 l should consider we'll before talk
 ing the bit into his teeth and stampeding pell-mell for the Shushana or any other new placer strike, for that matter. that is located any con siderable distance from where one lives.
 1. The ground known to contain go!d is all staked. As sparso'y set tied as Alaska is, it would be Inpos- sibie to make a placer strike any where that would be so extensive that some of the people within the almost immediate section of the strike would not have to go without claims. That was true of the famous Klondike strike seventeen years ago, and the increase in population and improved transpOrta- ton facilities have emphasized a thousand fold the conditions that shut out the slow ones of Circle City that stampeded to Dawson in 1896.
 ?. The trip to Shushana is no sum- mer frolic. Go what route you will, and the road will be found long and hard -muscle-tiring and nerye-testing. It is a job for men of strong limbs and stout hearts.
 8. The supplies in the Shushana and along the route to it are by no means sufficient in quantity to pro- vision stampede of undue propor- tions. In fact, they are so scarce that warning has been sent out again and again to mushers that they must bring their own provisions. That means that one going into that coun- try should buy plenty of grub and such other supplies as he may require and have his own horses to carry them.
 f. There will not be work at the other end of the line for one in fifty of the Shushana stampeders unless it be furnished by those that are on the way there. Those that have staked the claims in the district have not sui ficient ground opened up nor sufficient supplies and equipment to enable them to employ large crews of men.
 On the other hand, the indications are that there have been some rich claims located on the Shushana. The extent of the area or richness of the gold-bearing district might be great or little for all that is known now. If it should prove to be what the more hopeful ones expect it to be, there will be many opportunities there for en- terprising and resourceful men to i'm prove their conditions and to extend and enlarge the glory of Alaska.
 It is not the purpose of The Empire to discourage people from trying their luck" in the new camp. It hopes that those who go there will do better for themselves than they hope to do. It's purpose is to make men think we'll and know what they are about to do before setting out.

The action of the City Council in talk ing steps for the naming and num- bering in comprehensive manner of the streets of Juneau is commendable. Juneau's population is growing so fast that some system that will give "che- chakos" an opportunity to tell peo- pie where they live has become a ne cessity to a large portion of the pop ulatiOn.

SCOTT BONE ON ALASKA
--o-o

~ corr c. BONE. editor of the Seat ID tie PostIntelligencer. who has
 just completed a trip through Alaska, is enthusiastic over the great possibilities of the Territory, but won derfully impressed with the stupen- dous amount of work that must be done in the task of developing the country. Mir. Bone sums up the re- suits of his observations on Alaska in the following paragraph, that ap- peared at the end of a six-column arti- cle on the Alaska excursion of the New Seattle Chamber of Commerce in the Post-Intelligencer.
 Alaska and Alaska waters are wonderful - truly wonderful. Their magnitude is overwhelming; their scenic splendors beyond description Of the mineral resources of the Ter ritOry the world as yet has but vague knowledge. The difficulties in the way of the development of the country are great-yery great. Even with Uncle Sams aid in solving the problem of transportation, which should be forth coming promptly and generously, Alas ka will not be opened up fully for many days. But development is sure, A Goethals is needed in the emergency. A work is to be done in Alaska bigger than that of Panama. It is a work thain in the end will pay as largely as Panama. Give Alaska a Goethels, with the power of the national govern ment behind him, to build railroads and make the wealth of the Territory available and accessible, and simplify the land and mineral laws, so that the pioneer spirit now dormant will be re- stored and promoted, then Alaska will come into her Own-her dreams come true. And if Woodrow Wilson's ad- ministratiOn shall do this or start the constructive work, it will be an achievement that will endure forever"

The bolt of the Republican organi- zatiOn of Gotham from the nomina- tion of John PurrOy Mitchell for May or of New York indicates that the bi- partisan political machinery that is fighting so hard against reform in the Empire State is still working harmon. iOusly. Repub jeans of the Barnes stripe prefer Tammany control of New York City to reform of any kind by any party.

The persistence of Delegate James Wickersham and those other members of Congress that are fighting to have the Alaska railroad bill considered at this session of Congress is admirable. If that bill does not become a law be- fore the adjournment of the special session of Congress the fault will not be theirs.
