One of the most significant encouraging and pleasing bits of news the people of Cordova have heard in long time that contained in the Daily Alaskans dispatches today quoting William C. Edes of the Alaska Engineering Comms sion in reference to the purchase lease of the Copper River Northwestern Railway by the government While Mr. Edes cannot and does not speak with authority for either Secretary Lane President Wilson, the recommendations of himself his colleagues will have great influence in final determination of routes The dispatch contains encouraging promises of bigger and better things for this city we'll for the entire territory and will tend to brace up those who becoming discouraged by long waiting for something to turn up they may prepare to join the crowd and aid in the turning to prepare to do more and talk less.

AFRAID OF GUGGENHEIMs"

The problem of opening the last big American frontier by railroads, government owned government controlled now before Congress The present administration has under taken the task Aside from the commercial benefits that accrue the question of control of railroads trial.
 Therefore at the start the government cannot afford to be swayed by sentiment but decide nals merit aone and choose the which will give the country the largest measure of benefit
 We repeatedly hear that the administration may not want to lease the Copper River Northwestern because of the Guggenheim that might be raised That cry worked havoc with administration and those looking the political sides of things fear might nure the present administrations
 To give heed to any such fear is to oredoom to failure government transportation in Alaska For part believe that President Wilson and Secretary Lane will not hesitate to deal with the Guggenhems any other interests
 they honestly believe that the purchase of existing lines necessary promote the welfare of Alaska business proposition pure and simple and fraught with too much importance to the and future generations to allow sentiment politics to dictate the policy of the Juneau Dispatch.

Meantime, as everybody in New
York knows, Miss Anne Morgan, the
late financier's young and unmarried
daughter, is devoting her philan-
thropic energies to a society which
seeks to induce working girls to save
their money.
This looks like very good team
work between the Morgan sisters, for
when one has shown a girl how to
save her money the other undertakes
to illustrate how she may spend it to
the best advantage.

other day at the hour of the first les

and found dozen young girls learn

and bake.
The model fiat is really very pref
ty. It's greatest novelty is the double
decked bed in which four children can
sleep at once and which to save
space, is built on the ocean steamer
plan of an upper and lower berth.
There is a rail around the upper berth
to keep the little fellows from falling
out. /
The bedroom has sash curtains
and an improvised clothes closet
hung with rose-colOred calico in a
blurred cretonne pattern, light
enough to look pretty, but dark
enough to keep clean for long time.
Inside the .drapery wide board runs
along the wall a foot from the
ground, and the children are to be
trained to keep their shoes and rub
bers on it when not in use. On top
of the board from which the curtains
making the closets are hung there
are two lowered millinery boxes, and
the little brides-of-the-future are
taught how to make these orna-
mental receptacles for clothes by
covering plain hat boxes with old bits
