LEAGUE MEETING
BENG DISCUSSED
WAYCRoss PAPER SAYS ONE OR
TWO CLUBS MAY WITH
DRAW COMING SEASON.

The following article from the Way
cross Journal on the Georgia State
League viii be Of interest here:
at an enort is going % be made
| 10 ha meeting Of the directors OF
the Gee. a State League, held dl.-
ing this moth instead Of n January
as is propose. became known here
through reports from several mem
bers of the league.
Vice President James Sinclair fay
ors meeting before January, and
other cities Of the league, with pos.
slbly one exception, are said to be OF
the same mind.
One of the reasons adyaIIed TO SUP
port the necessity Of a November
meeting Is that the rule governing
the employment of Class c players is
apt to be changed, and teams now
holding on to men they could not
carry next season would get an OPP
portunity Of replacing them with
promising youngsters.
Then again various rumors have
been in circulation to the effect that
one and may be two Of the present
members of the league might drop
out next season. If this fact should
be determined during this month or
even early in December no trouble
would be experienced in getting new
cities to fill the vacancies, as several
applications have been filed and the
Georgia State won't go under through
lack of membership.
Dublin, Fitzgerald Quitman and a
few others are anxious for organized
baseball and whether they would
stand the pace regularly is unknown
but for one year would make hum
mers for the league.
II has become known that the next
meeting won't consider a salary re
duction so much as ii will handle the
question OF securing absolute obseTv-
ance of whatever salary limit is
agreed upon Each team has felt the
failure 10 stay within the salary linn.
IT, and the club owners realize now
that they must keep within the limit
or break up the league.

ALASKA'S HEROES.

Some psyChologists have declared hat there is no such thing as an absolutely unseifish action, and that no one Is ever moved by purely altruistic emotion Probably those psychologists have gained this opin- ion from a study of their own senti men,s, t-r it is quite certain that such conclusion could not have been reached from thorough study of the class of humanity that is rep resented by the sturdy American pioneers,
 No better tes. of recent times has been made of mems unselfishness than that which was made when the search was recently being car ried on for the body of Mrs Lizzie Stropp following the snoWslide near w rtmans in which she and P. Q. Rerglund were killed. Exposed 10 a bitter cold and he dangers of more slides, large force of men worked night and day for several days to un- cover her body. These men receiv- ed nothing for their efforts, except the food they ate while at work, and hat was provided for them by the mayor cf Valdez.
 It was not because these men knew the victims of the slides per sonally or that they could expect in any manner any sort of reward, tha
 hey underwent such severe hard ships There was not even the pos
 ihle chance that the world Wou!l ever know of their connection with the difficult task. They performed the work and suffered night and day the intense cold through the promptings If their unselfish human ity.
 Many a general and many an ad- miral have been immortalized for less bravery and less personal sacri- flee than marked the heroic ef- forts of these worthy Alaskans, who have returned to their daily rou- tine Of life without any effort to let the world know of their identity.

WHAT'S WRONG WITH 13?

Supersti ion despite it's evident fallacies. seems to have lasting hold Up humanity. One of the most popular superstitons concerns the number l3. and people Of other wise good judgment will still heed

 l, is intcres sting to note how few hotels have rooms numbered 13 and how may cities have no streets or avenues numbered 13 But on the other hand, American history shows hat if there is any influence exert rd by the number 13 it must be for good. There were l3 original Amer- can colonies. and certainly they were not "unlucky." There were also 13 stars on the original American flag. Many of he important battles in which the United States has been the victor have been decided on the thirteenth of the month. The la est

TUBERCULOSIS IN ALASKA.

When the Alaska gold fields were first discovered it was found that many men who came here reccver- ed entirely from attacks of tuber- culosis from which they had been suffering when they came here.
 Now, however the situation seems to have changed. for tuberculosis is just as common in some parts of Alaska as it is in other civilized communities, and the disease has al so started to make dangerous in roads upon the native population of the Territory,
 From the best information that can be obtained, it seems that the cold weather is truly an antidote for tuberculosis, if the patient is provided with fresh air at all times. What seems to be promoting tuber- culosis among the Alaskan Indians and among some of the white people of the Territcry is the lack of venti- lation found in some of the houses, where several people are crowded in to small close rooms without any source of fresh air
 Every person with common school education knows that the lungs must be fed with oxygen just as fire is fed with it, and that the chemical change in the lungs is the same, though in a less degree, IS that which takes place in the fire in a heating stove If, then. fire can be prevented from burning by shutting off the air, the same effect comes to the life-giving action of the lungs of people.

es bu. their scopes have been won derfully enlarged. until now they are close competitors of he universities. The best agricultural colleges of the present time are the most eXhaus- tive schools along scientific lines, and they also include such schools as mining. pharmacy. mmercial training. and nearly all branches of mechanical education and ma'he- nautical research.
 In California. the agricultural col lege and the university are combined. but in Oregon and Washington they are separate institutions. The Ore gon Agricultural college, a Corvallis has almost twice as many students as the State university. and is far better financed.
 The agricultural colleges usually limit the iHstruc ien in Greek and Latin to two years each, and foreign languages to similar time, but az Very thorough on English branches The chief difference between the agricultural -llege and the univers- itv is the more extensive course 4f forded by the la ter in classic stud ies Tn Alaska it Is not probable that for long time there will be i great demand for the purely classical education that Is not provided hy an agricultural college, and hence the latter is more important of the two in this Territory.
 Wherever the government main tains it's agricultural colleges. it al- 90 maintains it's best agr,cu'tura' experimental stations. Thus if a god agricultural college is esta3- lished near Fairbanks, the distrie. will receive the benefit of more compete line of experimental work than would otherwise be provided.
 If Fairbanks can secure the schools sugges ed, it will do more to keep this city he metropolis of the Interior of Alaska than any oth- CT thing with the exception of the railroad. which is W authorized.

 What woman means to the schools was recently indicated by the way the people of Chicago arose against the effort made to remove Mrs. Flagg Young from the head of the school system of that city.

SCHOOLS ARE NEEDED.

Delegate Wickersham's plan of securing for Alaska higher institn- tions of learning will almost certain " meet with success. provided con gress can be convinced that the population will justify them, for al most every other state and territory in the country have been granted schools of similar kinds.
 The agricultural college and the school of mines are even more need ed in Alaska than is the university, though all three will soon be neces- sites. By an act of congress passed back in the time of the Civil war, each state was authorized to sell certain sections of public lands for maintenance of an agricultural col lege, which also was granted certain other direct appropriations. The laws of the United States require the respective states where the agri- cultural colleges are founded to er- ect the necessary buildings. Certain appropriations are also provided for the support of state universities.
 The primary purpose of the agri- cultural c.lleges was the instruction

HOUSE CLEANING.

l. seems now that the Democratic party is going 10 cleanse itself of such dirt as the Tammany leaders have proved e be. The Democratic club of New York has busted Murphy and his lieutenants, and the later are wise enough to make no effort 10 oppose he action of the club.
 The greatest obstacle to the real success of any political party is its management by machine" The only purpose of a political dictat7r- ship is selfish gain, and whenever the selfish interests win out, the public mus, suffer
 But aside from the financial loss hat the public experiences, there is mother, and even greater wrong resulting from the boss rule of poli- tical parties, and that is the de- moraizing effect of such a cond- tion.
 It will be noticed that few worthy men ever become political dictat ITS, he inference being that they are too honest to stoop to questionable tactics. The machine rule breeds public dissatisfaction and constant criticism of public officials, and this in turn disccurages worthy men from entering into political race.
 In almost every city there are those who are ever ready to sacri- flee the interests of the public to gain their own political power Right here in Fairbanks are a few such persons, but the standing of these men is not of a nature to per init them 10 have much local infll- ence.
 Two things are working constant lv against political evils. They are the direct primary and the rapidly growing interest the women of the land are taking In political matters.
 Women's suffrage may have it's faults, and there may be a large number of them who are not capable of using good political judgment. but, as whole, they have proved themselves to be worthy of the right 10 vcte It is now quite cer- tain that the country will benefit from their work.

NoYEeY EDITORS ANSWERED.

If a merchant should try to tell a rival dealer h-w to conduct the latter's business, the advice would inspire but little serious though, for it is not in the nature of thinss that a man will try to promote the success of his rival And rhe edi- tors of the two Noyes supporters are acting no less ridiculous in their advising the editor of The Citizen how to d his work.
 The Spasm deyctes much space 10 explaining what kind of journal ism appeals to Sourdoughs, while the Noyesy Times has begun to wor- ry about the ability of The Citizens new editor to please his employer. Just why the Spasm thinks the pioneers of Alaska are not as re- sponsive t progressive ideas as oth- CT people and why the Noyesy Times worries about the ationship be- tween the editor and the owner of The Citizen are not made quite clear.
 The efforts Of the two newspapers seem to be to befog the Moves re, ceivership criticisms. and to get tn. public to forget their own part n the undeIhaad .riclery that prevent, ed the mass meeting t5 which both of them We're opposed because il was called through the columns of this newspaper.
 It is true that the Spasm did make denial concerning the alleged iH- fluence the editor of that paper ey- erted to get Moves appointed to the receivership, but the Noyesy Times has never from the frs made any attempt to answer the criticism made concerning Moves in any other man ner than by abusing this paper for criticising him.
 The asserti-n made by the editor of the Spasm that he did not get Judge Overfield to appoint Moves may be true. but the fact remains that Judge Overfield told the owner of The Citizen that il was through the recommendation of the editor mentioned that Moves was appointed But why doesn't the Spasm make some denial of the charge that Moves favored him in financial way, and let the people see why his paper IS backing up an incompetent man who is wasting the money of the deposi- tors of the Washington-Alaska bank
 When it is understood that Moves owns the Times. the editor of that paper can hardly be blamed for sup porting him, but it is to the shame

MAY TEST MINING LAWS.

At last it seems probable that the validity of the Alaska mining law which has caused so much confu- sion and uncertainty. will be tested will come from the trying of nu- merous cases before Judge Br- VII at the present term of court at Cordova, thn cases involving the title to claims in the Chisana dis trict.
 A few weeks ago The Citizen un- dertook to show the weak points in the local law, in reference to is va lidity, and nof the Cordova Times has come out with a strong editorial al ng much the same lines In part the editorial if he Times is as follows:
 The term of court due for Cor dova mex week will determine many questions which the miners of the Shushana must have answers for be- fore they go ahead and do ex en- sive development work Recent ar rivals from the camp assert that there is great deal of interest there in the decisions fl the various cases as many of them are test aases and will determine the rights
 f ', ;cl brought into court.
 The decision in the various noints will have an important bear ing on the future of the new min ing district and it is to be hoped that during he coming term of court Judge Brown will find it neces- sary to rule on the legality of the Territ rial mining law l. is pret- ty generally admitted by laymen and lawyers that the Ia ter law is in valid
 Until judicial decision on the matter, however. a miner wishing to absolutely comply with the law so as  avoid trouble will have to comply with the new statute, for otherwise he cannot feel certain of his psi tion. This leaves the whole mining situation in state of chaos, that brings a fervent wish from every miner that congress had not given Alaska home rule. Undoubtedly it was the intention of the legislature to require only s100 worth of work on each 20-acre claim CT less. the first year. By calling this 'locatioH work instead of the usual term as sessment work and by requiring it to be done within ninety days from the time of location, therefore con flicting with the federal law, our in elligent legislators succeeded in pill ing confusion on confusion until TOW a locator has to do s200 worth of work on each claim the first year n order to feel that he has complied with the law"

RENTS PLAN IS GOOD.

Of the various plans that have been advanced f r the leasing of the Alaska coal fields. probably that of Congressman William Kent of Cali fornia is the best. Mir. Kent suggests that companies be allowed to mine the coal on he royalty pan; that is. he government is to receive a
 specified amount for each ton mined
 This suggestion seems to settle an aggravated question. The govern men will receive its share Cf the wealth of the deposits, and the people doing the mining will not be allowed to corner the coal output
 The plan suggested by MT. Kent IS much like the one adopted by the government some years ago In the matter of entering timber lands Un- der this ruling a person entering nieee of timber land. must pay the government for all the timber on the land. and thus the big lumber c m Danies have been prevented from gaining control of large areas of timber without paying for the wealth hus secured.
 When Consressman Kent. on Feb ruary 2S. addressed the house com nittee on public lands concerning his plan, the scheme was received with much favor, but the latest ad- vices from Washington do not eX-
 ain if 1t was made feature of the casing bill
