Responsibility

The House of Representatives has under

party question and ought not to be. The Democratic
caucus OF the House very properly refused make it

majority in the House that they will be held largely
responsible in the public mind, for whatever is done
or for whatever is not done The present makeup of
the House is follows:

The Washington Baltimore Hotel Reporter is the
of publication being put out from the National
Capital whose purpose is chiefly to protect the ped
ers of poisoned drinks.
The issue of May II, ordinary issue, contains
the advertisements of 6tyone liquor dealers and nine
dealers in saloon supplies
This is pretty broad hint as to the dsinterested
character of the sheet.

this sort The League is NOT quitting on National

 "A contract has been closed with the United Press for their complete news service. This arrangement Is unique in the history of motion pic lures. and t is said that no other film manufacturer will be able to ob- tain the service, as it is exclusive with Pathe. under the terms of the con- tract. This will be of the greatest aid in insuring pictures of important events as they happen, and practical ly every event of interest will be GOV cred by the large force of Pathe cam era men scattered over the country.
 Previous to this innovation pri' vate telegraph wire was installed for the use of the Weekly. and an Asso' ciated Press man was engaged for the position of news editor"

.GRUBSTAKE" TO HANDLE
 CRUISING PARTIES

The "Grubstake" Is the compara- lively new gas boat, recently pur' chased by w. T. Dickinson and E, D.. Beattie for the purpose of engaging in the hunting and cruising business in Southeastern Alaska waters. She is A feet long, with 12 feet beam and is built of heavy timbers throughout making her exceedingly seaworthy. She is equipped with heavy duty Atlas engines. She has a cruising radius of 1000 miles. The idea of the owners is to accommodate hunting and cruis- ing parties who visit Alaska during the summer season and will be open for engagement for that purpose.
 The vessel has been entirely re- modelled in accordance with the plans of the owners. The house has been extended we'll toward the stern, mak' ing room for eight pullman berths comfortably arranged and for an ade- ouate kitchen. The lavatory Is mod. ern and equipped with hot and cold water. The large deck over the cabin can be used in pleasant weather and the pilot house can be used to lounge in, for the engines have been placed forward beneath the floor of the pilot house and arranged for pilot house control.
 She is to be manned by crew particularly we'll acquainted with the waters of Southeastern Alaska and 1t is the purpose of the owners to have none but experienced guides in their employ. It is expected that she will be ready for sea early in April and after that will be open for engage ment.
