EUGENIC MARRIAGE LAW
 CREATES APPREHENSION

The New York Law Journal speaking of the decision handed down by the supreme court of Wisconsin upholding the constitu- tionalty of the eugenic marriage law says it is significant as upholding an initial stage of what may ultimately grow to be a serious invasion of private right in the in terest of the public benefit" The chief question raised in the attack on the con- stitutionalty of the law was based on the contention that it Is class legislation, be- cause it discriminates between male and female applicants for marriage licenses in that females are not required to present health certificates, while the males are. On this point the court says in part:
 "An argument is made that the law IS void because the classification is unreason- able, arbitrary and discriminatory in that 1t singles out men about to marry and makes a class of them; there beng, as 1t is argued, no substantial differences which sug- gest the propriety of different legislative treatment between men who are about to marry and women who are about to marry. Theoretically the argument IS strong. Classl- fcation is not to be condemned because there may be occasional instances in which it does not fit the situation; 1t IS proper if the great mass of situations to which the law applies justify the formation of a class and the application of some special or different legislative provisions to that class Classification can rarely be mathematically exact The question is not whether in some
 individual instance there is any perceptible l distinction, but whether there are character istics which in a greater degree persist through the one class than in the other, and which justify the different treatment That there are such characteristics in the class of unmarried men is as certainly true as it is disoreaitabie to the male sex"

ROOSEVELT NOT REAL EDITOR

It is not quite correct to say, as New York telegram says, that Mir. Roosevelt Las given up the associate editorshlp of the Outlook Wide as is the American usage fl the word editor, it cid not properly ap- ply to Mir Roosevelt, who on going out of office became attached to the New York Outlook as its principal and very highly paid contributor He was called Contrlbut- ing editor a term unknown to us and new in America, and provocative of many Jests among Mir Roosevelt's journalistic friends and opponents.
 Readers of that lively paper, the New York Sun, for example, will have re- marked that letters from private correspon- dents go under the heading From Our Con tributing Editors,' a standing gibe at Dr. Lyman Abbotts celebrated coadjutor. The Outlook is in appearance wholly unlike any English weekly, and although of recent years it has become predomnantly politi- cal journal, it has retained the special liter ary and religious character impressed upon it by its editor in chief in the years when he was Beechers successor at Brooklyn. Dr. Abbott is now veteran, and for good long time past the chief burden of the editorship has rested upon his son, Law renee Abbott-Manchester Guardian.

coal. The cutting off of this supply may occur at any moment, owing to the hos tlities. Such action, with no coal devel- opment in Alaska, would be a calamity which would cause endless physical suffering and great financial loss to northern indus tries
 If Alaska ever needed help in any matter she needs 1t now to get congress to reallZe that Alaska coal Is a Pacific coast neces- sitv Alaska people and her representatives in the national capital have talked, written and petitioned until patience has ceased to be virtue. Her magnificent coal deposits lie there untouched and untouchaDle by her own people solely to please few mls- guided conserv atonlsts It IS crime that this condition should be allowed to con tinue.
 Alaska is a cold country Fuel and plenty of it. is a necessity To send money out of the country and to pay heavy tolls in freight is more than ridiculous when the country itself affords vast deposits. Some of this coal could be mined and shipped out within ninety days, so easy of development are some of the fields.
 Individuals can do little or nothing in a case Ike this. It requires the combined influence of bodies of men like the Seattle Commercial Club to secure attention and action. This club has consistently advocated the opening up of the Alaska coal fields Now all its influence will be brought to bear with Washington officials and with members of congress to the end that this injustice to Alaska and her people may be undone.
 The club does not attempt to dctate how these fields are to be opened, whether by government operation CT by private cap ital That is left for congress to deter mine. The important thing Is to get busy digging coal and place 1t where it will do somebody some good now, not a century CT two in the future.

DARING NAVIGATOR
 IS HERO OF HE HOUR

E. J Smith, better known to his many friends by the sobriquet of Clean Sport, had the distinction of being the last man to navigate the Iditarod river from Dike- man to this city prior to the freeze-up. He arrived with his vessel, the Otter on Tues day last after a fast trip from the down river burg, bringing with him four passcn- gers-John C. Currin, Charley and Harry Larson and Bob Cockburn It is said his passengers were rather severe with the skip per, insisting on his continuing the voyage in spite of the fact that he wished to tic up Monday night and take a much needed sleep.

 An especially timely resolution was passed at the club meeting Tuesday evening, the subject being Alaska coal
 The resolution. in addition to pointing out that Alaska mining operations were already suffering as a result of an insufficient amount of coal recited that as coal used Iv the navy on the Pacific was brought from the Atlantic seaboard for the most part in foreign vessels a shortage will soon exist at the government stations because tor eien bottoms are not available to transport fuel to waters on this side of the continent.
 Coal from the Boring river field IS suit able for navy use. the resolution stated. This was indicated by tests made by Brooks and Martin of the Geological Sur vev There should be no further delay ln opening up Alaska coal fields on some basis, operated either by the government or by private capital. so that physical suffering and financial loss may be prevented.
 "Foodstutfs have very largely increased in price in Alaska since the European war be gan The decrease in the value of copper in connection with the increase in prices of supplies may force copper mlneS as well as other enterprises to shut down.

EFFECT OF THE WAR
 ON BERLEN'S NIGHT LIFE
(Berlin Cor St. Louis Globe Democrat

(BerIn Cor St. Louis Globe Democrat
 THE HAGUE, Aug. 19.-The first shot fired in the war killed the gayety of Berlin as if blight had descended upon the cap ital Not in many years has the city been so quiet, with every form of amusement drowned upon by populace rendered grave end solemn by the tremendous nature of the conflict and the grave happenings in the fatherland.
 There are great crowds in the streets at night, but they are different from those of few short days ago. No longer do the pleasure resorts attract the Berhnese. Now they parade solemnly along Unter den Lin den and wait with the greatest eagerness for the issuance of bulletins by the war office, telling of the progress of German af- fairs and German arms
 These bulletins, which are issued only two or three times during the day and are posted in public places, are of the briefest character The general staff usually re- ports in concise language of some encounter upon one of the several points of contact with the enemy.
 The parading crowds at night also pay frequent visits to the monuments of General Won Moltke and to Bismarck, and also to the Column of Victory. They surge between the emperor's palace and the Brandenburg gate, talking gravely of the events of the day and waiting for some news from the front.
 The women in these crowds vastly out number the men, and though the war has been under way only fortnight, the women and girls who are mourning their loved onas have st artlnoly increased It has been suggested that inasmuch as the men are sacrificing themselves for the fatherland it would be we'll for those they have left be hind to discontinue wearing black.
 All the pleasure places, the theaters, nov ing pictures and other entertainments have been discontinued, and the famous might llfe' of Berlin IS no more Even the opera house discontinued It is not city ol mourning, but city rent by the most seri ous of feelings.

Commerce of the Territory

That the Alaska railway commission will be able to report amazing figures on the commerce of Alaska is indicated by a com pilation made by Robert w. Baxter, presi- dent of the Alaska Steamship Company, and vice president of the Copper River & Northwestern railroad. According to Bax ter's figures, merchandise valued at more than s18,700.OO0 has been shipped from Seattle to Alaska during the past ten months This, in round figures, Is more than $3, 3,500,000 in excess of the shipments made for the banner year of 1912.

FIRST MEETING
 OF LOCAL ABS 5

The first meeting of the season of Iditarod Camp No. 27, A. B., last Monday night while not largely attended, was one of the utmost interest. The finances of the organ ization were discussed, and plans for activi ties during the coming winter were made Nominations for the various offices during the coming year were made and these will be voted on at the next meeting Monday evening October 26 Plans were also made for entertainments during the coming win ter
 The financial reports of the officers showed that the campaign inaugurated last summer to free the hall of debt had made most gratifying progress, and as a result there are now outstanding against the prop erty of the camp liabilities of but few hundred dollars, with the prospect of clear ing these off within a comparatively short time. At the time the movement to wipe out the indebtedness was started there were debts against the building aggregating sev- eral thousand dollars. The success attend ing the efforts of the camp in this direction is largely due to the efficient and wide awake officers and they have been highly complimented on their work
 Clttei tdllHtSft Tealul Co
 Discussion of Tlans for winter entertain ments developed the fact that it was the consensus of opinion that, as in previous wears. the Brotherhood would be looked to to inaugurate and supervise the social acuvl- ties and amusement events during the com ing winter, and steps were taken to start the season by providing for ball to be given at an early date. and also for a more pretentous event at Thanksgiving, which is to be the real opening of the winter festiyi- ties. Some of the members of the enter tainment committee having left the city Herb Riley and A. F. Maltby were named to fill the vacancies.
 Nomination of Officers
 The following members were placed in nomination for the various offices for the ensuing year. the election to take place at the next meeting:
 Past Arctic Chief-ClaEde Baker.
 Arctic Chef-Charles Derry.
 Vice Arctic Chief-Albert Vile and Percy G. Charles.
 Arctic haplain-Frank Gularte.
 Arctic Recorder William Anslev
 Arctic Keeper of Nuggets-Cyril P, Wood.
 Trustees Claude Baker, John Holmes, Ira Wood H. Riley and Percy G. Charles.
 Other officers to be appointed by the Are tic Chief
 Basketball Talked of
 Some members of the camp spoke en- Enthusiastically of the possibility of organizing basketball teams during the winter, and 1t is thought likely that this sport will be re- vived There is excellent material avail able, and apparently it only needs the active interest of the players to provide splendid amusement in this direction.
 The gymnasium paraphernalia will be at the service of all members, and this will furnish recreation ad amusement of bene fciGl nature to many.
 Altogether the outlook for a season of unusual activity is splendid, and the open ing events will be looked forward to with interest.
