ones may predict, but the writing on the wall reads-Prosperity.

In Michigan the first year of the workman's compensation act has just come to an end. The general impress sion seems to be that as far as 1t goes the measure Is a great success. Rob- ert K. orr of the Michigan State In surance Department has this to say of the matter.
 From what can learn of the pres ent conditions of the industrial health and accident business in Michigan, ! believe that the different lines have adjusted themselves to work in har- mony with the compensation act"
 Not only the insurance companies but the employers and workman as we'll got together and gave the new law a fair trial.
 There was no petty opposition to the act. no blatherskite interference by professional trouble makers Everyone seemed to understand that an effort was being made to correct an evil and worker and employer joined hands in helping a good cause. There has been a cry raised by certain misguided workers to the effect that capital and labor have no common interests. An absurd faliacy of course. where inter- ests are almost identical. but that same little fallacy is a great breeder of mischief. In the case above quoted for instance the employer and worker had a very definite common interest, they pulled together and the result is most gratifying to both.
 A little less antagonism and a little more get together between employer and employe the country over will make more for industrial peace and better working conditions than can ever be gained by incenndlary speeches and useless strikes.

SEGREGATION AND CO-EDUcA.
 TON.

l In the current discussion concerning
 schools it must ever be borne in mind
 that all the advantages are not on the side of either policy. Segregation un- doubtedly has some advantages; so has cO-education. The task of deter mining which Is the better system .s a delicate one, and the conclusion reached in either event cannot be wholly satisfying.
 The broad principles underlying CO., education seem to many persons to be
 more important than the narrower and
 nearer results of segregation, if the
 desired end were definitely attainable
 in the school room. the proponents of segregation would have a stronger
 case, for at the best 1t Is a debatable
 question whether the social instincts
 engendered by the commingling of the
 emulation of the sexes result in anxi-
 ous to stand well in each others eyes produces.
 In the final analysis. however, school Is but a segment of life. life must he lived after the school days are over, where there are no artificial barriers between men and women. The distinc- tion of sex in the world of life is grow ing smaller every day. The time when the woman was in the home" has passed to large extent. Henceforth she cannot be counted on to be in the home. She is to have here choice in the matter and the right to exercise her preference.
 Segregation at one time was the natural outcome of life conditions. tt was buttressed by chaperons and the daughter to go into another home as Il wife. What she had to know was as definite as were her duties. However we may feel about 1t. we must admit that the times have changed. Today we are almost compelled to look upon a school girl as future man of the world. That she will spend a more or less lengthy part of her life in the business world Is almost a certainty. If such Is to be the case. should We lightly assume that the benefits of a segregated education are of more lvalue than a regulated experience of the life which is almost certain to come to her.-Seattle Post -Intelligen- cer.

Official Paper
NOME, ALASKA, SEPT. P, 1913

The annual influx of the army of buyers from the south and west is now encamped in the wholesale district of New York. This invading army is If anything larger and better equipped with the arms of trade. gold, than ever before. To large extent these funds as "crop money" The provincial mer- chants must believe that the people have plenty of cash on hand or they would not be investing in such large stocks of goods. For a long time mer- chants all over the country have been letting their stocks become depleted. Now they are stocking up to meet an expected demand that they forsee will grow stronger as the months go by, and the merchant generally reads the signs alright. All this activity in buy ing enlcourages the financial interests of the metropolis and New York sets the style for the rest of the country in finance.
 In spite of the agitation in regard to the tariff and currency, in spite of politics. business is picking up all over the United States. In spite of the continual cry of hard times from Wall street the great mass of the Ameri- can people. who really live west of the Hudson river are prosperous These people, good many millions of them. are engaged in productive activity. They have capacities, and they wear clothes. and what is a better indication than anything else of the prosperity of the country, these peo- pie have the means to satisfy their appetites and cover their bodies. If they had not the storekeepers would not be adding to their stocks. the banks would not be lending money and the outside buyers would not be in New York in such great numbers.
 If Wall street has fallen upon bad times. If the professional stock gam
 
 blers find it harder and harder to squeeze living out of the market and therefore cry wolf. wolf" 1t is no sign that we need look for dire ruin Even during the long and seemingly useless summer session of congress the country has steadily advanced. Nc partisan policies. no tariff tinkering can stop the onward march of pres perity. The country is too big. toe vital, too igorously young and strong to be checked by anything congress dues or does not do. or to be seriously retarded in it's natural development by the fearful rowling of the professional gang of Wall street gamblers.
 Let the Croaker croak and the pessi- mist predict. the fact remains that the buying for the retail market Is the criterion by which the country's pros pe-ity maet be measured. The retail market ref.. Is the purchasing ability ot the ultimate consumer. The retail CTS are buying therefore the retailers know that the ultimate consumer has the money to purchase what he needs Wall street may grumbIe disgruntled
