BOYLE YUKON CONTINGENT
 GOT AWAY LAST NIGHT

The Boyle Yukon contingent of Canadian volunteers for service in the British army in the European war left Skagway on their way for their point of departure for the front from eastern Canada on the Princess May last night at ' o'clock There were 4S of them, all in the vigor of young manhood, full Of enthusiasm for the Mother Country and with courage and determination to help in her defense to the full measure of their strength.
 Some of them are ex-members of that efficient semi-military organiza- tion known throughout the world as the Royal North West Mounted Po- lice of the Dominion of Canada, which has since it Was brought into existence a few years ago, become such a tower of strength in the preserva- ton of law and order, and such potent factor for the detection and punishment of crime, that the territory over which it has jurisdiction is summed by criminals Of all degrees, except in isolated in- stances.
 Others are men who served the Mother Country in the SOGth Africa war and are trained soldiers, who may have become little rusty by disuse but who will, with the coach ing they will undergo before they are sent to the front, become as fit for the arduous work as the most seasoned of their comrades.
 It is expected that there will be several more join their ranks when they get to vancouver, B. C., their place of departure for the East.
 A large crowd of local people were assembled on the dock when the Princess May sailed last night, and when the vessel pulled out in to the harbor with her decE5 crowd ed, big banner stretched along one side on which was inscribed Prom Dawson to Berlin, 764O Miles," and a cornetis. on board playing Its Long, Long Way to TipDerary," their enthusiasm and appreciation broke out in a spon- taueOus and hearty cheer, which was as heartily responded to by those on beard.
 The vessel, gaining headway, was soon lost to sight behind an inter veniug headland, and a Skagway incl dent of the great European conflict was closed.

TWO OLD BATTLEsHIPs
 MAKE ONE DREADNOUGHT

To replace the two United states battleships, "fdaho" and "Missis- sippi," which were sold to Greece recently for a consideration of $12,- 5S5,275.96, a single dreadnought of greater displacement and far great CT strength than the two other yes sels combined, will be constructed, says the November Popular Me chanics Magazine, in an illustrated article.
 The two vessels disposed of were commissioned in 1908, but despite this they were considered inadequat for first-line service. Both yes sels are of the same measurements and strength. Each is 375 it. in length between perpendiculars, TT 1t. broad, has a normal displace- mept of 12,OOO tons, full-load dis placement of about 14, 400 tons, and a draft of PAS 1t. Each of them is designed for a speed of 1857 miles and carries a main battery of four 12-in. and eight Sin. guns in tur- rets, eight Tin. guns broadside, and two submerged torpedo tubes. In contrast to this, the new ship will have a displacement of 32,OOO tons, will be 600 it. in length be- tween perpendiculars, 97 it. broad and have a draft of 30 it. Its ar mament will consist of twelve 14-in. guns, four submerged torpedo tubes, torpedo-defense battery, and twenty-two in. rapid-fire guns. The three-gun turret arrangement will be followed. The boat will be an oil burner and have turbine engines.

ALASKA COAL WILL SOON
 COMPETE WITH OUTSIDE OIL

The Alaska coal bill passed by congress the first Of the week and signed by President Wilson on Thursday provides, so far as the Daily Alaskan is informed, for royalty of cents per ton to be paid by the lessee.
 LeSsees also pay an annual rental of 25 cents for each acre; 50 cents up to five acres, and $1 for all above that. The coal land is to be surveyed into blocks of 40 acres each, not to exceed 2,560 acres in any one tract, and they are subject to strict competitive regulations.
 The money derive rom the les sees is to be paid into an Alaskan fund to help pay for the Alaskan railroad.
 In the Matanuska coal fields is reserved 1880 acres for naval pur- poses and 5,12O acres in the Ser ing river coal fields.

About Competitive MaIket

Kenneth c. Kerr in the Railway and Marine News does not take a very optimistic view of the govern ment going into the coal business. Referring to 10 years ago, he says:
 At that time a privately owned and operated coal mine could have afforded to pay larger royalty per ton on coal because private enter prise had provided market for the coal. That was in 1904, 1905 and 1906. In that period Alaska had a bright future in this particular commercial relation. Two great markets which had been provided by the Grand Trunk Pacific, then planned and the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul, then nearing completion, and which at that time had not de- Yeloped western coal fields. Vari- ous other questions came into play, making it possible for those who would spend their fortunes in de veloping Alaska coal to See a great market for same in the future.
 It is not necessary to repeat all of the mismanagement of the gov ernment toward Alaska nor to deny in full and without reservation all of the articles originated by Golfers and copied in various muck-rakin magazines, as to the monopoly pro- posed in Alaska. The whole thing was purest mosnshine."
 He declares that the government cannot possibly do all of the pre- liminary work and be ready before the summer of 1920, and continues:
 It is the summer of 1920. The railroad is open and the coal mine is producing; all nature is smiling; Alaska is beaming under this great development, expected to follow, The traffic manager of the railroad and the sales manager of the coal mine happen to meet and the traf- fic manager says to the sales man. ager: Where are you going to ship that coal?"
 And the sales manager says to the traffic manager, q haven't the least idea"
 And the traffic manager says to the sales manager: Gan yau not sent it to Seattle?"
 And the sales manager says to the traffic manager, "No, because the eastern coal mines can supply the Pacific navy yards and ships and the Washington coal largely supplies the local market and the Canadian coal supplies the British Columbia and part of the foreign market, while Australian coal is brought into Puget Sound in foreign bottoms much more cheaply than the American coastwise ships could possibly handle it from Alaska to the Sound"
 And the traffic manager says to

the sales manager, "Why is 1t that the coastwise ships of the United States cannot operate as economical ly and give us better rate"
 And the sales manager says to the traffic manager, You ought to know, being in the traffic depart ment, but for your information, ow- ing to the fact that there are no United States lighthouses in Alas ka, the insurance is excessive. The laws governing the operation in the United states coastwise trade are such that the cost of operation Is twice and sometimes three times as great as ships of foreign countries in the overseas trade, which in this connection meet the coastwise ships of the United states in dir ect competition; foreign ships can load eastern coal and bring 1t through the Panama canal to Puget Sound at a lower rate than we can mine, load and deliver Alaska coal On Puget Sound"
 And the trafic manager says to the sales manager, Why doesn't the great Getwell mine and the Juneau mine and all these other big plants along the southern coast buy coal from you in place of this California oil?"
 And the sales manager says to the traffic manager, Its because they have a contract with the san Leandro Oil Co. of California, for fuel oil delivered in Alaska at $1 per barrel, and, as you know, four barrels of oil equals one ton of coal at $4.0O, and the best we can do in delivering coal to the nearest great industries in Alaska is S4.6e a ton, and even that would not al low for good operating expenses on the railroad.
 And the traffic manager says to the sales manager, Well, let's go fishing"
