INTERDEPENDENCE,

No country can live unto itself
alone. No country can experience the
interruption of it's free exchange of
products with another without itself
suffering damage. During times Of
peace France has bought one hun
dred and fifty millions worth of goods
annually from Germany. and has sold
n like quantity. Now that trade is
discontinued. France will not have
German goods. and Germany will not
have French goods. Both France and
Germany suffer. because neither coun-
try bought goods that it did not need,
and that it could not buy to better ad-
vantage across the line than at home.
We may say that the Frenchman may
make his own goods. and the German
likewise. Very we'll. But in order
that this may be done, the men who
have been making goods for the for
eign customer will have to be taken
from that occupation and put at max.
ing goods for the home trade. and
there will be no more goods made,
and no more people employed. They
will be employed differently. that is
#all. And. as such a change would in
volve the revolutionizing Of a number
of industries. and the building Of new
ones needing the most elaborate sort
Of organization. and the employment

ALASKAN GOVERNMENT.

Congress has, among other things,
provided for the government of Alas
ka by a commission of five men, and
in doing SO it has done wisely. For
some time there was much agitation
in favor Of the organization of Alaska
under n regular territorial form of
government. similar to that under
which the rest of our territories have
been governed while awaiting state
hood. 1t was urged that the people of
Alaska were as much entitled to the
management Of .heir own affairs as
were those of any other part of the
Union. For time it seemed some-
what likely that this form of govern
ment might be adopted. 1t is well that
it has not been.
Alaska differs materially from any
Of the other former territories of the
United States. 1t is country Of
enormous extent. mostly uninhabi
Its few settlements are scattered,
hundreds or thousands of miles apart
Communication between these settle
ments is difficult at all times, and
impossible during considerable part
Of the year. The population is COM
posed largely of transients, and of
persons who have no expectation Of
ever being anything but transients.
They are there for a short time and
a special purpose. and when that pur-
pose is fulfilled they expect to leave
the TERRITORY never to return Hinder
such conditions the talk of the gov
ernment Of the territory by its own
people was entitled to little considera-
ton. The territory is pretty certain
to be better governed by capable
commission than it would be by a ter
ritorial legislature elected by the
transient occupants of it's mining
camps. The commission plan for
Alaska looks good.

REVISING WARS ACCOUNT.

In discussing "The Cosmic Extrav-
agance of War" The New York Jour-
nal says that in modern warfare, pre-
vious to the present conflict. the aver
age cost of killing one man has been
$4,000. In the Boer war; owing to
distance, the expenditure was much
greater it being $4,000 per man,
while it went down in the war be-
tween Turkey and the Balkan states
to the comparatively small, but still
considerable. amount of $4,000 for
each death.
These figures are presumably OBJ
tanned by dividing the entire cost of
the several wars by the whole num-
ber of fatalities. a method which is
obviously falacious, since killing,
while an important part Of warfare,
is very far from the whole of it, and
can, indeed, be regarded as an in.
evitable incident rather than the OBJ
iect to be achieved. At any rate, it
is means, and not an end, and by
no fair system of accounting would
all the money spent be charged to it,
Still, however viewed, the figures
are impressive, and when understood
can safely enough be accepted, If not
as Statistics at least as plausible
guesses. The Journal is therefore
justified in contrasting with them the
fact that in Panama. where health
conditions 10 start with were as bad
as anywhere in the world. it cost only
$2.43 to save life. In the latter
case the computation is sound. for
there are available data from which
can be deduced what the death rate
among the thousands of unacclimated
canal workers would have been had
not the advancement in preventive
medicine made the American sanitar-
ians more efficient than they or any
others would have been in the days
when the French undertook the great
enterprise.
But this $2.43 per life, aggregating
a fifth of the canals cost, probably
bears about the same relation to the
whole expenditure that the direct cost
of killing in war does to the figures
given above. A good accountant
would debit about four-fifths of the
total outgo to the other results than
slaughter that follow military opera.

LAYING IN SUPPLIES.

once the practice of buying food
articles in large quantities, stocking
up for months in advance. was almost
uniVcrsal-among those who could
raise the price. Today it is less COM
mon, although it is still followed. But
the question of when to buy is as puz-
zling as ever, for the man who buys
a years supply of provisions today
may find tomorrow that prices have
taken big drop. and the man who
postpones his purchase may find that
they have taken big jump.
A few years ago a well-to-do farm
er was observed piling onto his wagon
in front of Il local grocery a large
load of flour Flour had for u num-
$500 per hundred. But the price of
wheat had dropped. and with it went
the price of -four. The price at which
the farmer had made his purchase
was $40. The purchaser explained
that he felt certain that the price had
touched bottom, and so certain was he
that he would not soon again have an
opportunity to buy at that price that
he had bought enough to supply his
large family for two years. The con-
clusion seemed reasonable. and those
who heard envied the nlan his good
fortune in his ability to buy and store
such a supply of this necessity at such
an abnormally low price. And yet
within a very short time th> purchase
could have been duplicated at $1.50
per hundred. The farmer has lost
money by his forehandedness
Three months ago, on the outh. eak
of the war, there was Il furry in
sugar. Germany, the source of sup
ply of much of our beet sugar. and of
beet sugar for other importing coun-
tries, was shut off from communica-
ton with the rest of the world. and
sugar was in immediate demand.
Buyers, in their anxiety to obtain a
supply. began to bid up the price, and
the retail price advanced to about
$500 per hundred. 1t seemed likely
to go higher The war is still on:
German commerce is still interrupted;
German sugar cannot be bought. Yet
sugar is today quoted in the Grand
Forks market at $5.45. The buyer at
a higher price would have made a
mistake.
Cotton is very plentiful and very
cheap. 1t has been so plentiful that
spinners were afraid to buy it. even
ut the low price quoted, for it might
drop still more, and then those who
had stocked up would lose in competi-
ton with those who had waited for
the lower price. Hence there was
presented the curious spectacle of cot
ton mills being on the point OF shut
ting down because of lack of raw ma
terial at time when that material
was cheaper and more plentiful than
it had been for years.
The question Of when is the best
time to lay in supplies is difficult one
