Miners Settle Dispute

The following communication was received from a correspondent in Sun rise concerning the miners's meeting recently held there to settle a dispute between two prospectors
 The first miners' meeting for dozen years was held in Sunrise March 9 The occasion was a disagreement between two prospectors enroute for the Idita rod A satisfactory dissolution of partnership and an equitable division of the outfit was effected in less than an hour
 ln the early days of the Six Mile dis trict, when the nearest court was in Sitka all disputes and differences of a serious character were settled in Che miners meeting About l5 years ago commissioner was stationed at Sun rise. That arrangement marked the end of the miners meetings.
 Here are some points of distinction between the processes of justice in a miners meeting and those that obtain in the court:
 l. The business of miners meeting is conducted in the English language. Until Judge J. l. Gallaher, of Kodiak, convened court in Sunrise, to try a lady for selling whiskey to an Indian, such expressions as Capias, Certiorar, Alias writ, co respondent, plaintif-in- error, Caveat Emptor, de bonis non were tabooed in the camp. Commis- sioners Brooks, Brownlow, Hildreth and Goodell did what faithful officers could to popularize these and kindred legal terms, but men engaged in placer mining don't take kindly to such talk
 9. There is time limit on all the proceedings of a miners meeting. Most controversies are settled in so many minutes, and it is an unusual difficulty that can't be strengthened out in two hours. This arrangement seems to suit the contestants and the miners, but in the courts learned counsel often seem hurried if expected to finish a case in three years.
 8. There is not cent of expense at taching Go a trial before miners meeting. Though the matters may inc volve thousands of dollars, it is tried and settled without money and with out price. This defect is most appar- enl to lawyers, but it is extremely popular with the contestants:
 1. There is not one appeal from the decision of a miners meeting to ten from the decisions of a court Seward Gateway.

What might have resulted far more seriously than the burning of house, was narrowly averted by the prompt action of two men who stood close to the doors at the Sons of Norway hall last Sunday evening. At the time the fire alarm reached the hall which was crowded with people, "knave" yelled fire. In an instant every body rushed for the doors and only for the action of those men in opening the doors, women or children might have been tramped to death A person who Is SO thoughtless as to yell fire in a crowded public building, should be punished as a criminal of the worst kind. The use of little common sense in time of danger, will go long way toward avertiug shocking disaster Uufortun. ately, fcols will remain among the living to the end of time.-PetersburR Progressive.

CONDITIONS ARE
GOOD FOR THE
EXPORTERS
THE WAR, HOWEVER, HAS CUT
OFF GREATER PORTION OF
IMPORTS

New York, Sept. S.-The important
event of last week was the extension
of the moratorium in London, which
disclosed evidences of plans in the
course of formation which will ulti-
mately lead to at least a partial
breaking of the present deadlock.
There is at present no prospect in
sight on an early opening of either
the London or the New York Exchan-
ges. Nevertheless, We are steadily
approaching the time when partial
resumption of financial operations is
to be anticipated New York is for
tunately in good position for re
opening when London is ready to do
likewise. Values are low and the sit
uation here is entirely free of infla-
ton. The greatest obstacle here to
business resumption is the financial
position. Our foreign exchange mar
ket though improving is still practic-
ally blockaded. A little more business
is being transacted in sterling, but
foreign credit is still demoralized and
international transactions are largely
upon cash basis. Fortunately both
imports and exports are returning to
more normal conditions Trade with
Germany of course is practically clos
ed, but an increasing amount of traf-
fic Is being maintained with other
countries. The exports from New
York last week were valued at $10,-
100000, compared with $S,500,000 the
week before and $12,0O0.00O a year
ago. Our imports at New York amount
ed to $12,OO0,OOO last week, compared
with $17,300,000 the previous week
and 100000 the same week year
ago. These figures include New York
only, which is port where the i'm
ports are relatively larger than ex-
ports. Conditions are becoming more
favorable to exports than to imports;

MISSISSIPPI TO
GET Benefit
OF MONEY
ROOSEVELT SUGGESTS USE FOR
$25, 900 DEMANDED BY
COLUMBIA

New Orleans, Sept. S-Colonel The
odore Roosevelt delivered a public ad-
dress in the opera house last night,
in which he urged this government
instead of paying s25,000,OOO back
mail to alien wrongdoers and their
heirs" as proposed in the dispute
with Colombia over the Panama canal
property, should use that $4,000, 900
and the plant of the Panama canal,
and. as many score of millions extra
as are necessary to take control of
the Mississippi and to develop all It's
possibilities of usefulness from the
headwaters to the deltal"
Colonel Roosevelt made particular
point of the flood problem, which he
said must be met not only by levees,
but great storage reservoirs upstream,
which would not only stop the flood
but serve well for irrigation pur.
poses. He reminded his hearers that
ne had been an advocate of federal
control of the river for long time.
Il insisted upon it when l was presi-
dent" he said, 'but neither of the
old parties adopted it. 1t is only the
progressive party that has seen the
need of such far reaching construc.
tive policy"
He spoke warmly of the progress
sives in Louisiana. There were no
other members of the party, he said,

succeed unless they 90 in upon the
same basis as those who have already
succeeded in advance they must
buy their ships, their supplies and
their labor under the most advanta-
geous circumstances. Our laws for
many years have prevented this pol
icy. In some respects these laws have
been modified; but the remaining re
strictions are still too severe to per-
nit of profitable operation, and the
American shipowner is obliged to
hide his property under other flags
and depend upon foreigners for pro-
lection to American property. Presi-
dent Wilson will do well to suspend
these restrictions as far as within his
power. Ultimately they should be
removed.
AS regards the war our government
has properly taken the stand of neu-
trality and must stick to it implicitly,
come what may, more especially as
II is far from creditable to any nation
to be connected with, countenance or
indorse, such hellish, barbaric,
brutal slaughter as is now going on
between the heretofore highly civil.
lied peoples of Europe. I applaud
our government for the attitude il
has taken. The effects of the war,
However, are not confined 10 the ma
tions involved; there are 10O,OO0,00O
people in this country suffering seri-
GUS consequences from it and they are
therefore entitled to have voice in
the matter. I advise our citizens to
individually assert themselves and in
sist that this war must. stop, and /
call upon them to use their influence
with voice and pen in that direction
for the sake of humanity and civiliza-
ton as we'll as on account of their
personal interests which are now suf-
fering such severe injury. At present
there are hundreds of thousands of
industrious, honest and capable peo-
pie in this country who are almost on
the starvation list by being thrown
out of employment and their numbers
are being largely added to- each day.
Have they no right to live and be
happy? Our whole nation sympa
thizes with them in their distress.
There is scarcely a single household
in this country today that is not made
miserable and unhappy because of the
dreadfully inhuman conflict now wag-
ing, but if each nation engaged in it
would reflect and decide to suspend
hostilities, call it a draw, if you will,
am almost sure truce could be de-
clared which would eventually result
in permanent peace-"a consumma-
ton devouty to be wished This war
is nothing but a carnival of blood and
frenzied massacre, and should end.
