Governor Slaton is in New York to
complete the details of financing a
large bond issue for Georgia, the
funds to be used in refunding for
mer issue now about to mature. On
his first visit, when the issue was
successfully arranged for. the gov
ernor was paid marked tribute by
large financiers, who were surprised
to find him an expert in financial
affairs. They called him Georgia s
business governor, a name earned
by his record in pulling the state so
nearly out of debt during his admin
istration.

A 'possum tail thoroughly fossil
lied and evidently belonging to some
prehistoric era is the most priced
possession of Judge Samuel P. Mad
dox, of Dalton. Judge Maddox was
strolling over his farm when he came
upon queer-shaped rock. Examin-
ing it closely he found it was clearly
the smooth and rat-like tail of a
Georgia marsupial. The negroes on
the farm offered him almost anything
in reason for the curiosity, believing
it would be a mascot which would
cope with any hoOdoo which might
be put upon them. But Judge Mad
dox has so far refused all offers.

Commenting upon President Will
sons recent statement that the man
who seeks the presidency is fool,
the Cordele Dispatch tells what an
empty bubble is fame. 1t says: 1T
seems that it has ever been thus
about that delusive bubble called
fame. The universal sum total of
fame has always been nil. Fame is
a costly, attractive bubble and those
who chase it only have to learn that
it is a grand process of absolute sub
traction of all genuine happiness.
Napoleon achieved the greatest fame
of any. but he paid the highest price
of misery, unhappiness and suffer
ing"

There are fourteen states that
have statewide prohibition laws.
There are eleven states that give full
equal suffrage to women. Only five
of the fourteen are also numbered
among the eleven. In six of the
fourteen women have no voice in
government, even in such minor bus
mess as the selection of school
boards. Woman suffrage and prohi-

are not allies.

We are quite fortunate that our cousin Is in error in this statement. There would be very little safety in our American institu
 tions if our judges were permitted to con- strue what in their opinion would be a mans good intentions and render deci- sion thereon. A nation that would permit its laws to be ignored in like manner would be lax indeed. The court records show that the first in law is the first real possessor of any of our public domain AS our govern ment makes no provision to declare for feture itself, it depends upon the slippery gentry, or the man who has the courage, when he finds that the laws have not been compiled with, to intervene. When the case comes to bar, our courts give the man who has compiled with our laws the decision. They do not make hero out of the man who has intervened; but they do appreciate the fact that through such men are the only means of enforcing our mining laws.
 l do not agree that Judge Lynch has been much in evidence, with his guns and ropes, in Alaska; in the few instances that he has been in evidence and administered his barbarous remedy to the object of his hate, the miner had nothing to do with 1t. The most vivid instance of his court is the Hesse murder, in Southern Alaska. And here our courts duly punished the man who perpetrated the atrocous crime. In this instance one of Judge Lynch's constituents brought the messenger of death to himself with his own hand The aff1uvia arising from this murder should be sufficient to make any editor think twice before he puts in print anything that would even suggest that such course as that of Judge Lynch's would be tolerated or even thought of where we have courts of justice in our land.
 While we Americans realize that there are defects in our laws, we do not look with envy upon the laws of any other na tion. W. H. B.

Says We Will Have More Dredees

w. w. Clark of Iditarod City, who has been in Seward for couple of days, wait ing for a steamer to Seattle, is planning on returning to the interior camp via Seward some time in the late spring Mir. Clark said that next summer should be the ban ner season of the Iditarod, and after that it will be 8 dredging proposition, and no place for pick and shovel miner
 At this time there is one dredge working on Flat creek Riley & Marston have an other dredger landed on the ground ready to be set up and one being built on the Outside that will be shipped in on the first boat in the spring. With the installation of these new gold diggers the day of the individual miner in the Iditarod will be a thing of the past, although there will al ways be more or less prospecting. It is also being planned by interior operators to install two more dredges, one on Moore creek, on the Kuskokwim side and one on Gaines creek, in the Innoko. That will make five dredges in a radius of 100 miles, and will make that section quite dredging center.

IDlTAROD PEOPLE ARRIVE
 AT CITY OF SEWARD
Steward Gateway

C. Nelson and Roy Vance arrived in Seward yesterday from Iditarod, after one of the hardest trips reported this year They left the interior city on November 28 and were 23 days on the trail They were com pelled to snowshoe from Richardson's road house to the coast, and the trail was in a horrible condition.
 The boys say they would have made a little better time but for the fact that 8 lady, Mrs. Grant, was on the trail and was very sick the entire distance, and they assisted Sam Adams in caring for the in valid lady.
 Mr. Vance is an electrician and has been employed with the Guggenheims the past season. Mr. Nelson is dredger man and has also been working on one of the Gug genheim dredgers. They report things very quiet in Iditarod this winter, and state that the days of the hand mners are over in that camp, as all the work is being done with dredgers. Last summer was ex ceptionally bas, as there was a great scar city of water.
 The gentlemen report more snow in the interior at this time than has ever been known, and the trail especially between mile "A and mile Fl. IS almost impossible.
 Messrs Vance and Nelson will leave for the Outside on the Northwestern.

WELL-KNOWN JAPANESE
 CALLS ON GUGCENHEIMS

The following bit of gossip is taken from an Outside paper:
 Jurio Wada, known throughout Alaska as champion musher and as the discoverer of Fairbanks and other rich gold camps, tells an interesting experience he had while calling on the Guggenheims, the multi mil lionaire mining promoters, in their New York office few weeks ago. Wada visited them to tell them of rich claim he had in Alaska, hoping to make sale of the prop erty. After long wait, one morning he was ushered into the office of one of the Guggenheims, but as it was lunch time, food was suggested, and Wada was told to wait a while. "'-- < A few minutes later an office boy came out to Wada and said
 "Mr. Guggenheim says you may have an egg or ham sandwich"
