A story of hardship in blazing a tral to the Chisaua from McCarth over which horses and freight could be taken in, was loid yesterday Oy D. F.. Hooker, who returned to Sc attls this week from the new dig gings AIr. Hooker md Ray Larsen, his partner. were rhe first in over the ice. The journey began Nov ember 1, and required twenty-seYeA days.
 MT. Hooker believes that if the idea of building a trail across the Nizina and Chtsaua glaciers proves impracticable, freight, supplies and winter travel will 50 either by way Of Skagway, over the White Pass railroad and the lake hluane tral!' or out of Valdez by way of the so- called Gulkana trail
 It took us seven days to get our outfits up 70 the ice on the Nizina glacier, 9 distance of thirty-tiye miles, Nr. Hooker said, in teiliug o the trip
 November : a portion of the party started up the glacier. Grey asses We're encountered time and again. The snow averaged fifteen feet in depth. From this time on wa encountered all sorts of diff culties. -ace for two days we were unable to leave ou- tents on ac- count of raging blizzard, and for four days thereafter tDe storm was hardly less severe. The wind reach ed a velocity of eighty miles an hour, and the temperature was be- tween 20 and 30 degrees below zero
 "Our horses played out entirely when the feed for the animals was gone. Our own food ran short and We decided to shoot one of the hors- es for food. When the animal fell dead it dropped into a crevasse, Just after this occurrence our ad- vance guard encountered anoJheE trail blazing party, led by Mr. Hep Ter and MT. Chase. They had sufficient supplies to afford Us re lief and We joined forces.
 "Ou November 19 We reached a point about eight miles below the summit on the ChisaUa side, where seven glaciers come together and where the ice is buckled up and twisted in every direction. It took Us an entire day to make less than hali a mile. Fully a hundred crev- asses were encountered.
 Finally our party ran out Of fuel and food. The LexJ to the last day We were on the glacier we work ed from daylight until four hours after dark in order to reach a little relief tent fourteen miles from the Chisana end of the glacier. That night We were obliged tO sit Up be

WILL OPERATE
 A NEW LINE.

St. Paul, Jan. 7-Wholesalers in nearly every line of trade in the Twin cities have Set on foot plans looking toward the handling of great amount of freight by line of boats operating between here and the Gulf of Mexico. A river terminal costin half million dol lars is already under construction under the Washington Avenue bridge in Minneapolis and it has been pre- dicted that the big business inter- ests of the two cities will be oper- ating boats to New Orleans by the middle of next summer.
 The primary object of the en- terprise is to force down the rail- road freight rates against which the local wholesalers have lodged countless complaints. The new rate between Duluth and the Twin Cities makes speedy action of jobbers a necessity and 1t is believed that river transportation is the solution of the problem.
 Another incentive behind the pro- posed river freight line, is the Op- euiGg of the Panama canal. New Orleans is destined to become the receiving point for an enormous mass of merchandise and a river line here and between that city would be of enormous value.

COMMENCEMENT PROGRAM.


Just as our schools are better than
the schools Of a quarter OF century
ago. so the commencement exercises
have come to fit the times. There
may have been time when some hun
dreds of admiring friends and relatives
enjoyed a program that opened with:
In yon straight path. a thousand
May we'll be held by three.
Now who will stand on either hand
And keep the bridge with me?
and which made us familiar again
with Marco Bozzaris and Abou Ben
Adhem. before it closed with "Curfew
Shall Not Ring Tonight" Fhat was
not. however, the kind Of program
with which the Davenport grammar
schools or the high school closed their
year The songs and wand. dumb bell
and Indian club drills OF the grammar
school graduates were decidedly diff
ferent, and the high school commence
ment was a splendid commentary on
the readiness for the more complex
life of today with which our boys and
girls leave their home schools. The
numbers, appearance and achievement
Of the young people on whom interest
centered in our commencement season
this year was distinctly creditable to
our city and people and to our school
system.

the vAsecromy LAW.

The federal court held the vasectomy
law of Iowa unconstitutional and thus
invalid. 1t was to be expected, The la"
was not broad enough and as the judge
argued in his opinion MAY come under

nation.
However, it may be that the federal
judge who comes TO consider this or
similar question twenty years hence
may take different view. Judicial
view points change with the years and
With the development of later UNDER
standings of important questions. In
depreciation of law depends very con-
siderably upon the time in which it is
interpreted AS We see things and I'M
derstand them today the vasectomy law
is cruel and unusual.
But there has come into politics and
society a new understanding OF the
rights OF all as against the individual
and when that comes into politics and
society and religion it soon finds its
way into courts. The question OF the
Individual right like the doctrine OF
state rights years ago, is in a state
of transition. 1t may be that twenty
or forty years hence the judge who
passes on law calculated to reduce
hereditary crime shall hold 1t to be

1t should be understood that Game
Warden Hinshaw Of Iowa does not
represent the attitude Of the state

so far as can be judged by public ex

obeying a law which Hinshaw refused
to enforce. have shown themselves to
be heartily in favor Of this law.
All OF the trouble over the Mclean

due to a minor feature Of it, the pro-
hibition of spring duck shooting. but
the evidence, in single year, Of the
increase in game from that one pro-
vision. is bringing around the recalcit-
rant hunter.
