Maps for Schools

For teaching the geography of the United States in the public schools and colleges a strong effort is being made by the United States geological survey to foster the use of the government topographic maps, says an exchange. These maps contain so many details of local interest, showing ever the school houses and farm houses as we'll as every wagon road, with which,of course the school children are familiar, that it is said to be an easy matter for teachers to enlist the interest of the pupils in this new type of school map. From an understanding of the particu. lar maps representing their own locali- ties it is but a succession of short steps to lead the pupils 10 an appreciation of the different types of counties por- trayed on maps of other sections of the United States. Most of the stand ard atlas sheets of the geological sur vey of recent issue are printed on the scale of one mile to one inch, a scale which shows the physical features of the country in very interesting detail.
 With these maps the pupils can de- termine the altitude of their homes, and the steepness of hills and noun tsins, estimate the grade of wagon roads, work out simple engineering problems such as the drainage of swamps, select dam sites for the con- struetion of reservoirs to supply water to imaginary towns or for irrigation lay out imaginary trolley or railroad lines or canals along the most feasible routes, establish lookout and signal stations on high points for the control of forest fires, and plan many other similar activities.

Mrs. IA. Gilman, a magazine writer of some note, is quoted by a Seattle paper as an enthusiastic supporter of Alaska, who says that she knows no country that will compare with the climatic conditions of Alaska. "Alaska has the healthiest climate in the world" |" said Mrs. Gilman. "It is the only place for women, provided they have com mon sense enough in their modes of dress, and if they get out of doors every day. Twenty or thirty degrees below doesn't deter me from going out in the open. It's good for you." Mrs. Gilman says that the mail service for the uiamna.Nushagak country is poor. "The residents of that district are mak- ing a vigorous effort to have the mail routed over the Fairbanks and Yukon line. Last year from August until May but two deliveries of mail were made in Bristol bay and only one out going mail. The people ID that Isolated district did not know who was elected president until March 2l. The govern or of Alaska's Thanksgiving proclama. ton in Novem Der, 1912, reached these places March 21, 1913. There are over 5000 people who live in BristOl bay during the summer, while only about POO remain there during the winter months. When the first cannery ship reached the Bristol residents this spring, bringing many San Francisco papers, the people went wild over the thought of getting some news from the outside world. The papers brought an enormous sum and were sold and re- sold"

The Need of Mutual Under
 standing

In masterly speech before the New York chamber of commerce, Senator Root recently dwelt on the danger to selfgovernment that lies in ignorance and distrust of some sections of the c ountry by others, of masses of voters by other masses of voters. There are, he said, millions who regard the lead- ing commercial organizations as dens of thieves; there are men who reject expert proposals-as in the case of currency reform-becsus they dis trust the motives of the experts. There are, on the other hand, many business men who believe that millions of vot- CTS would destroy prosperity and para lyze industry and commerce. Hence there is no more important work to be done than that of promoting mutual understanding and confidence, of com batting prejudice and removing distrust and suspicion.
 Disraeli once said that in England the chasm between the classes and the masses was deeper and wider than that between Englishmen and foreigners. Much has been done to bridge that chasm, and much remains to be done. Here we have no classes and masses, but we have other divisions and mis- understandings To cultivate mutual trust and confidence we need more school centers, more civic federations more city and county organizations for discussion and democratic social intercourse, more conferences between the employee and the employed, men from the farms and men from the cit ies.
 National unity will not take care of itself It must be fostered. Confidence is the offspring of friendly relations, of acquaintance, of meetings and dis cussions-Chicago Record-Herald.

The Valdez Commoner, in describing the recently discovered "Gate to the Interior" says: The Olson launch re- turned from Portage Passage Tuesday morning with her crew. They had been to the new gate to the interior to stake some fine looking clacer ground just on the other side of the divide" Gold can be banned in most any part of it, although DO large quantities have been found. The stream meandering down through the valley of about 800 acres is almost completely damned at its mouth by the slouRhing of ice and mo- rain from the big glacier that is direct ly in front of it. It in many ways re- sembles the gold basiu back of Juneau, from which s3,OOO,OOO have beeu taken. About twenty five men from Valdez have staked the whole valley and will prospect the property at once. The mountains from which the source of this stream comes is tue same contain ing many of the best strikes at Port Wells. The railroad, if built through the mountain separating Portage bay from Turnagain arm, and there is not question of doubt about it building there, will run across this valley, mak- ing it easy to deliver machinery directly on the ground. The whole surround ing country is heavily mineralized, and there are more prospectors thereabouts at the present time than in any other portion of the district. Portage bay IS, in places, heavily tim bered, sufficiently so to supply all local demands. Mill lions of tons of Cook Inlet coal is near by on the other side, and the Matanus- ka coal fields are "three hours run" by train up the inlet. The finest farming lands of Alaska, the Kuik valley, lies "iust over the divide, and large num- her of homesteads are being taken up. Take it all in all, Portage City promises to be "the Hub" of Alaska.

Vice President R. w. Baxter, who recently made a tour of inspection over the Copper River railroad, has decided to make more improvements this sum- mer than ever before to insure the running of trains regularly during the winter Snow sheds will be extended, bridges strengthened and the track raised and ballasted wherever neces- sary. Spurs are to be built from mile Forty-Nine to directly in front of the glaciers, SO that tourists can see them in action from the train.

busd with dislike for the artfficla mems employed in monarchial coDn" tries by some people to prove an i'm agined superiority over the common 1 run of mortality. They are just as firm in their belief in Q democratic form of government as their fore fathers were when they showed thei: strength and love of liberty by throw ing off the yoke of monarchy and set ting up a government by. with and for the people. But. today the govern ment which Haldane represents has
 gone as far as any democratic gov ernment in giving the power to
 the many and . wrenching il from the few. Haldane himself has recently been made a lord and this
 would appear to show that he fs the
 representative and the upholder of
 monarchial government but he has
 really, no doubt. accepted the title as
 A social triumph while retaining the
 desire to place the power in the hands of all the people. This apparent in consistency can be understood by say ing that even here in our little mining camp . man who had title would re- ceive obsequious homage from people with social aspirations while the same people would never consent to have the government changed from demo- cracy to an "aristocracy" or autocracy.
 Haldane belongs to a government which has given old age pensions. has insured against unemployment. has taxed the rich more than they have ever been taxed before. and particular k the land holders. It has given Great Britain e more democratic form of government than Cromwell would have dared to give. It has really cre- ated a revolution without shedding n drop of blood almost as great in the economic sense as the American revo- iution itself and 1t has brought Great Britain nearer to a realization of the American standard of government than e monarchy. perhaps. ever went before.
 For this reason the reception of the present minister of war by the United States will be the reception of one who does not represent an autocratic or aristocratic form of government but of one who is the representative of gov- ernment which has received its les sons from the American and other re- volutions and is willing of those les sons to make use.

V. Q. sAMUELs IS SURELY
 GOING TO LEAVE NOME

That M. D. Samuels is surely going to leave Nome and engage In business in southeast Alaska has been ascer- tained from him directly. The fact that he advertised to that effect was not ta- ken by everybody as meaning surely that he Is going but there can be n" doubt about 1t.
 It is no advertising plan at all but the straight truth and the camp will soon lose one of its most promi- nent oldtimers and one of It's most progressive business men.
 The store will be closed next Friday Saturday and Sunday so that the stock will be arranged to be sold of at a very low price as he intends not to ship any of 1t to his new scene ol activity. He hopes to have everything cleared out in time to get away on the last boat if nol before.

Senator Bacon's guarded statement to the senate that the chance for peaceful mediation in Mexico are small and that the president Is face to face with the gravest emergency that has faced this country in many years may be taken as warning by the entire country.
 His further declaration that an ex- pIosion of public feeling would take place if the full facts of the Mexican situation were revealed may also be taken to heart by all the domain of Little Americanism.
 The message from Mexico that Pre- sident Huerta will not treat Ex-Gov- ernor Linds mission seriously was clearly forespoken in this newspaper yesterday morning. If the presidents s unofficial envoy is not publicly insult ed in Mexico he will not escape by reason of any acute perception in our state department of the situation in President Huerta's capital.
 When all the peaceful efforts Pre- sident Wilson thinks it right to make shall have failed. he will find the coun- try instantly and sturdily beside him in the final and inevitable sacrifice and Y. American.

official Paper
NOME. ALASKA, SEPT. i, fs1a

The Dawson News says that the people of the Shishana are now trying to have extended the time for doing their location work. They find. ac- cording to the News, that the time given is too short to stake a claim. return for provisions and go back to perform the work which Is necessary before they can record their claims.
 This condition of affairs was pre- dicted In the Nugget quite Q little time ago. This paper stated the be- lief that the man who is broke has no chance against the man who goes into a new mining camp with money. When the fact was pointed out to a member of the legislature. long be- fore the news came of the dissatisfac- tion of the Shishana. that member of the legislature said that no harm would be done anyhow if the fellow who went in to 0 new strike on "a shoestring' did get left. It may be said that this legislator may have made this remark. as men often mako remarks. to gain momentary advan- tage in an argument and he may not have meant to be hard on "the shoe string prospector at all but his re- mark Is illuminating just the same.
 The fact of tho matter Is. without doubt. that the shoestrIng miner the fellow who Is about broke. Is the man who is going to suffer most by this provision and by some other provis- ions of the new mining law. It was stated in the Nugget nnd it is stated nsnin that the poor wretch who has to pack on hIs back grub enough only for few days over the heart breaking country to a new strike has been sas- risced to the man who can afford a horse and a large outfit. Do the leg islators recognize that fact now?

DANGEROUS AND
 DIRTY STREETS

A great deal of complaint is being made about the condition of side, walks in different sections of the city. In many places pedestrians coming along Calhoun road are in imminent danger of pluugirg to the beach a hundred feet below.
 The walks on nearly all the hills are coated with ice. rendering walk ing extremely dangerous. The down, town streets are exceedingly sloppy. Lower Franklin street leading to the City dock is in disgraceful state and the roadways to the Ferry slip are no better There seems to be no city ordinance compelling property owners to keep their walks clean and in good repair. The street department for lack of funds or some other reas, on. is not able to cope with the sit. nation and the streets are allowed to take care of themselves.
 Strangers arriving in the city won der why the people punish themselves by tolerating such condition of af fairs-why such a lack Of enterprise and the absence of civic pride.

PINT OF WHEAT TO
 FEED FAMILY DAYS

GREELEY, Col, Feb. l4.-"Half of the children of the United States are starving, and under the very shadows of the nations Capitol there ar el1- 900 who are underfed. The very foun- dations of the Government are threat ened."
 This statement was made today by Dr. Harvey w. Wiley before an audi ence of 1000, who applauded him re- peatedly. He said:
 People do not know what to eat, Farmers take more care of the cows than they do of their children. Wheat in it's natural state is the best bal anced food for the muscles and the mind"
 Dr. Wiley told how to make enough breakfast food from a pint of wheat to last a family of four for four days at a cost of a cent and a quarter a day. He said all that was necessary was to grind the wheat in a coffee mill and prepare it as ordinary mush is made.

EDISON LAUGHED AT
 OFFER OF A MILLION
Refuses offer of Big Money for His
 Talking Picture Machines.

CLEVELAND, Feb. 15. - Through negotiations ended by Thomas A. Ed ison's refusal of check of $1,OOO,OOO to clinch an offer of millions for rights to his new talking picture inventions it was learned today that the inventor has made two improvements which will result in making the photograph perfect instrument.
 News of the inventions was gained from Attorney P. J. Brady who has just returned from the Edison labor atories at Orange, N. J., and who of fered the inventor the million dollar check. Brady went to Edison on be half of Cleveland and Chicago capital ists, presumably trolley magnates, who were desirious of looking into Edi sons new storage battery with the idea of utilizing it on electric rail ways.
 While there Brady, who was accom- panied by one of the Cleveland mul ti.millionaires, was given a demonstra ton of the talking pictures. Brady hurried back home and the next day returned to Orange with the check.
 "Eidson just laughed when we of fered him the check as part payment on our offer of several millions fol the rights to the talking pictures said Brady. "We also offered him ir addition large royalties on the ma chimes. He turned us down"
