that the lower branch will
take action as speedily as
possible. A single railroad
running from tidewater to
the interior of Alaska will
not turn the treasures of that
Territory into the Tap Of the
United States without further
effort. There will not be
much business for the rail
road unless a definite policy
of encouragement is adopted
in Alaska all along the line
We have tried in Alaska "A
policy entirely different from
the one under which the
great North west was built up
and IL has not been success
full. The policy of exclusion
and encouragement has never
worked in any deserted terri
tory. The man who invests
his money in Alaska will
have to wait a long time be-
fore he can expect any re-

The ALASKA RAILROAD

Something has at last been
accomplished, or is very near
accomplishment, for Alaska.
The stepdaughter OF the
United States has gone with
out recognition for a long
time for so long a time that
the country was beginning to
wonder why the government
ever purchased the rich
territory.
Now, how. the Senate has
pasted the bill directing the
President to purchase or
construct 1000 miles of rail-
road in Alaska at d cost not
to exceed $40, 600. 900. The
bill provides for a redemption
fund into which shall be
paid rs per cent of all money
derived from the sale Of pub
lie lands in Alaska or of the
coal or mineral contents
thereof.
One swallow does not make
summer, nor will one railroad
make Alaska. In fact. the
action of the Senate in pass
ing the bill while celebrated
with torchllght professions
in Seattle and in Alaska, is
merely the first definite step
toward the long-desired end.
The house must yet pass the
bill. and it is devoutly hoped

MORE ENCOURAGEMENT For
The SETTLERS.

Congressman Smith is en-
thusiastic over the proba bill
.ty of the enactment of Sena-
tor Borah's bill extending
the time within which pay
ments may be made on re-
clamation projects to 90 years
md also the bill to make an
ldvance to the reclamation
und of one hundred million
lollars in order that the
numerous projects, several OF
which are in Idaho may be
undertaken.
Nj. Smith is advocating a
five year period within which
no payment will be required
by settlers on reclamation
projects in order that they
may get their farms under
cultivation and thus be better
prepared TO meet the pay
ments as they come due.
The Senators and Repre-
sentatives from the North
western States are taking
keen interest in the proposed
legislation, which, it is be-
lieved will have the approval
Of the Secretary Of the In
terror.
The bill of Representative
French fer the pensioning of
the survivors OF the Forsyth
Scouts and the widows of
the deceased members OF this
organization, was today favor
ably reported by the Commit
ttee on Pensions. The re-
port was unanimous.

way as did her illustrious
father when subordlnates

Mrs. Mccormick is the chair

ing as unauthorized the state
ment of the younger suffra-
gettes, who because they
were displeased with the act

of Congress threatened to
bring the forces of Suffragists
everywhere into play to help
encompass the defeat of the
Democrats. In the language
Of Mrs. M sCormick this state
ment is perfectly foolish. I"
Mrs. Mccormick says that the
young ladies who have
brought forth this idea have

SOAKING THE STOCK
EXCHANGES

Some of the Democratic
leaders are in real earnest in
their desires to put the
screws on stock exchange
methods. A measure has
been introduced in Congress
by Senator Owen, which pre-

telegraph, and telephone, in
furtherance of fraudulent
and harmful transactions on
stock exchanges.

Germany Expected TO Suggest
Changes in Olympic Program

LYONS, France. June 9.-It is un-
derstood that important alterations in
the program of the olympic games 10
be held at Berlin in 1916 are to be pro-
posed by Germany at the meeting Of
the international olympic committee
in Paris.
r. Burger, a German delegate now
taking part in the congress of the In
ternatiOnal Athletic Federation here,
received a suggestion from the Berlin
committee that the steeplechase, the
tug Of war and the walking events be
eliminated The proposal was to be
brought before the Lyons congress,
but it was stated yesterday that it
was improbable the matter would be
taken up here.
The International Amateur Athletic
Federation standard olympic program
committee has decided not to meet at
Lyons for the consideration Of any
alterations of the olympic games pro-
gram suggested and passed by the
federation meeting in Berlin on
August 20, 1913.
One Of the proposals which may be
made al the Lyons congress. however.
is to abolish the referee on the ground
that too much power is given 10 a sin
gle man. 1t is suggested he be re
placed by a jury consisting Of five
