Combination of Concerns.

1t has also been determined by ex-
perience that the separate little con-
Germs, some of which are necessarily
managed by men of limited opportu-
nity, cannot succeed unless they are
federated and supervised and helped
by a central organization. They need
assistance in organization, in finding
the best markets. The /. A. o. s.
has not only assisted in organizing the
cooperative societies, but receives Pc
riodical reports from the, visits and in
spects them frequently, audits their
accounts, sees that their affairs are
properly conducted, makes sugges-
tions as to markets and other business
problems, and gives council and ad-
vice generally. Some such supervision
must come in America if cooperative
success is to be general and last
ing.
Our Conclusion.
Cooperation has undoubtedly sue
ceeded in Ireland 1t deserves to sue
coed because it stands for uniformly

dealing, for just returns to those fur
nishing the product, for justice to the
consumer, as we'll as producer, for
good, clean business methods, for
skilled management, for community
loyalty and solidarity. Cooperation
will succeed In the United States
whenever it stands for these things.
If it does not. it will fail. The soon
er the cooperative enthusiast learns
that cooperation, like every other en-
terprise, must succeed on its merits,
not on some mysterious inherent yirE
tue, the better. Nothing could be
more unwise at this time than to
preach the doctrine that cooperation
in itsels should be introduced any
where and everywhere. If II is intro
duced before prospective members are
ready to cooperate in a proper spirit
for its success, it will inevitably fall

who are looking for a reduction in-

 ture to take precautions insuring the
 right action by congressman and sen.
 ators. Indeed it is surprising that the policy of interrogating candidates on this issue has not been long ago test. ed, as it promises to be soon if some of the leaders of the crusade against militarism perfect their plans. Similar ly 1t would seem entirely proper to ascertain whether candidates, if elect. ed, would share in the international campaign against war by joining and heartily supporting the interparliamen- tary union.
 It is practical ways like these as well as by passing resolutions and pub fishing pronunciamentos that those who really are determined to keep the nation free from war and in position of moral influence among nations can make history during the coming year.

ADMINISTRATION PEACE
 POLICY PARAMOUNT

Fundamentally pacific intentions oi ,:the executive department of the Unit. .- ed- States government as at present
 planned are known to the world at
 large. So long as President Wilson and Mir Bryan control the foreign pol. icy and. the use of the army and navy, the republic will cast its weight in the balances on the side of judicial yy and arbitral settlement of any dis putes. Nor will they. we think. give
 aid to champions of the theory that 3ythe lesson of Europe's present war is s:more. rather, than less naval armament s and a larger army. Can the statements
 be made about this or the next Con-
 gress? This is not an untimely query.
 for It seems clear that whatever the ( outcome of the war. the demand is that there be large increase of con s gresslonal appropriations for military expenditure.
 This being the outlook. 1t is but the simplest sort of strategy for citizens

THE DEATH OF MRS. LESLIE

There is more than touch of irony in the slightness of the mention that has been given to the death of Mrs. Frank Leslie, which occurred in New York a short time ago.
 Her career was one of the most re- markable of her day. She was one of the brilliant figures in American journ- nalism, and to her great ability she united a personality that was quite unusual. Newspaper files of the early eighties and nineties bristle with her doings. When Mrs. Frank Leslie went abroad and when she returned, news. papers chronicled the fact with inter. views. Whether she published anoth- CT book or bought another diamond necklace, or sold or leased or return. ed to the management of another mag azine, or married or unmarried or en. tertained at luncheon, the fact was in- teresting to the world at large. She seems to have had an inexhaustible interest in life herself, which is al. ways the greatest factor in arousing interest. Nothing she ever did, prob ably, up to perhaps ten years ago, ex- cited so little comment as her death.
 She once told reporter that she was neither the great business woman nor the brilliant magazinist she was called.
 "I am purely and simply good jour nalist" she said. "The whole secret of success l put down to my ability to deal with and judge tte value of news"
 Doubtless, had she handled the news of her own death, at the moment when the world was struggling in a cata- clysim of war, she would have esti. mated it modestly. But to those who remember the years when pictures and stories of Mrs. Frank Leslie were the most interesting things in the papers. the notices of her death are all the more touching because they are so bricf.--Seattle Sun.

WAR IN DELEGATES
 WESTWARD RANKS

The trinity. Frame. Dierringer wlkidel, in charge of the wickersham campaign, are having more or less trouble these days If reports on the street can be believed. Some opposi- tion to the control of the local Wick machine has developed, especially in the naming of Judge Hubbard, of Port Valdez, for Senator in opposition to pr. Chase, of Cordova. J. P. Simmons, who, with wikidel, who was hereto fore considered the personal represen- tative of, and spokesman for the Dele gate. is no longer leader and must now be satisfied with a back seat. WllIldel, as one of the trusty still rules in the inner councils of the or ganization. Representative Boyle's ad- vice is no longer considered or sought, for 1t Is generally known that he pre- ferred to have the Valdez Wickites remain with and support the Cordova nominee, Dr. Chase, and not split the party organization. But the three bosses who manipulated the so-called convention, decreed otherwise and in- sisted upon naming Judge Hubbard, and they did.
 What effect the naming of two Wick Senators will have on the vote for the Delegate, is, of course, mat ter that can only be settled when the vote is cast, but local politicians are certain that 1t will reduce the Dele gates vote materially in Valdez and Seward.-Valdez Prospector.

WHALING INTERESTING,
 EXCITING, PROFITABLE

That whaling is one of the most in- teresting, most exciting and most prof itable kinds of hunting ard that it is rapidly increasing in importance in the sea industries of the world, is an assertion made by Capt. J. F. Kroger, master of the Whaler Star H., who is in Seattle, after five months of cruls- ing off the coast. Capt Kroger will make his winter headquarters at the Palace The Star II. captured sixty four whales of various sizes during the simmer and had a profitable season from all standpoints.
 Besides the commercial value of the whale itself" said Mir. Hroger, "the skill and science utilized in the capture of the animal make whaling interest ing to the men. No two whales can be captured in exactly the same manner and because of this fact, the novelty of whale hunting never wears off. The whaler must ever be on the lookout for the victim and from then until the whaling steamship gets close enough to launch the harpoon, the chase is a battle between mans wits and the animals cunning.
 Different species of whales have different habits, and characteristics, which must be carefully studied by the hunters. The sulphur bottom and al- most all of the commoner varieties rise to the surface of the water to blow about every ten minutes, but the sperm, by far the most valuable of all the entire species, sometimes re, mains below the surface of the water for thirty or forty minutes at a time.
 "The sperm whale is the one most energetically pursued in Northern wa ters, but sulphur bottoms, fin backs, the latter very speedy fish, Califor- mia grays, and sea whales, are all cap tured. The California grays have mi grated to the Oriental coast this year and were not among the seasons cap turo." Seattle Post Intelligencer.

When the plight of the Tenderfoot operators became known in Fairbanks, automo- piles started out for the upper camp with twelve men. The two machines were compelled to pay $1O to be fer ried over the Salchaket river, owing to the government ferry being out of commission.
