BENEFICENT SUNSHINE.

BY the use OF metaphor Senator
Bristow Of Kansas has revealed the ad-
ministration s trust policy in humor-
Gus light, "While this gentle process
of dealing with the trusts is being in
augurated,' remarks Senator Bristow,
''the stock of these corporations is con-
tinually rising under this beneficent
sunshine of the present trust policy"
Clearly this is not the intention of
President Wilson, but the eagerness
with which he seeks to show benignity
while barbing his shafts TO shoot at
the trusts may deceive the trust barons
into believing that life still holds out
much hope for them in the way of mo.
nopoly and conspiracy in restraint of
trade. The president s attitude is like
that of schoolmaster who, with a
ruler up his sleeve, is trying with soft
words to lure little Johnnie into the
schoolroom to be thrashed.
Perhaps the president is inspired by
the best motives, but the po-

REINDEER IN ALASKA.

Passage of tho Alaska railroad bill
now before the lower branch of con
gross after having been passed by the
senate will undoubtedly mean the open
| ing up OF vast country i'll the far
north. The mining and lumber indus
tries will boom and incidentally the
fishing interests viii derive consider
able benefit. While the debate over
the railroad bill has been in progress,
attention has been directed to various
other sources of revenue in Alaska.
For instance. according TO the esu-
mates of the department of agriculture,
there are not less than 10000 domesti-
Gated reindeer in the territory, which
is said to mean that the reindeer indus.
try is by far the largest agricultural
proposition thus far developed, The
claim is made that under scientific man
agement the industry should develop
moro rapidly, the present herds forming
very promising basis upon which
great industry may be built. Fortu-
nately this industry may be developed
without cncroaching on other lines or
farming, for that portion of Alaska
which offers the finest agricultural pos
sibilities is the region best suited to
the reindeer.
The bulletin of the department OF
agriculture sets forth the fact that the
reindeer subsist mninly on white moss
found in all the Arctic regions of Alas
ka both summer and winter; that they
require no shelter and little care be-
yond the restraint of herder to keep
them from wandering; that the meat
is of excellent quality aud the skins
valuable In Europe the deer are used
for dairy and transportation purposes.
There arc possibilities of similar devel-
opment in Alaska, but thus far no at
tempt has been made in this direction.
According to investigators, there are
unsurpassed cattle and sheep raising
lands to be found on the Alaskan is-
lands and In certain places near the
shore on the mainland. Winter forage
for cattle and sheep is provided largely
from the native grasses, both hay and
silage being made. The practicabillty
of raising stock, however, except in
small herds close to the individual
farms, has not been sufficiently investi-
gated to warrant more than an init
nation of it's possibilities. In this con-
nection 1T might be well to mention
that there arc serious obstacles to be
eucountered-the long winters, boggy
land, mosquitoes and carnivorous ami
mails.
These obstacles, however, do not in
terfere seriously with the reindeer in
dustry, which we are assured will be
come Of prime importance in the near
future
