ANOTHER ILLUSTRATION.

T was 1898 when Clark Davis and
 associates made their first ship ment of coal from Katalla to Seat tie. Since that tune they have spent many thousands of dollars in the de- vclopment of the properties they have claimed. During all the years that have elapsed they have labored in season and out to comply with every statute and regulation for the acquire ment of lands from the government. Those of the company who were young men have become middle aged, and those who were middle aged have become old. Some of those in the company have seen little tots of child ren whom they were seeking to edu- cate, through tho!r efforts in develop ing a new country, grow to manhood and womanhood and become parents themselves. Yet the government for 15 years withheld their titles under one pretext and another until Wood row Wilson became President. Now justice is to be done them, They will receive patents to the properties to the development of which they have given the best parts of their lives.
 This is just another illustration of what the defeat of the theorists of New Nationalism and the vacillating and incompetent representatives of personal" government = government for the governors and their friends and the election of Wilson, with the resultant restoration of democratic government in the Nation, has meant to Alaska and the West.

brought into such disrcpute by the gambling features that attach to It that even its advocates have hardly a word to say in it's favor.
 And so on all through the history of sports. There never was and there never can be game popular enough to carry an excess load of gambling. The moment that a team carries too much money bet on it, at some time, sooner or later, some person will be found who, for consideration, will throw the game. And the moment that the confidence of the people in the squareness of the game is shaken, that moment the doom of the sport Is seal. ed.
 Every true fan owes 1t to the game to discourage betting upon baseball in every form and by every person. The belief of the public that the games are honest and square is the founda- ton of the popularity of baseball. Shake this foundation. and the whole structure will fall.
 Baseball does not need betting to make it exciting. It is so much super auous cargo. While not the sport of Kings. it is the sport of people, and even in cross-lots baseball games there are generally enough thrills to make the sport more than worth while for the sake of the sport itself. .oroville (Calif) Register.

GAMBLING WOULD KILL
 INTEREST IN BASEBALL

Baseball is undoubtedly the most popular and the finest sport that any country has developed. There is ap, pareutly no time in the life of boy or man at which interest in the great National sports wanes.
 Yet. popular as baseball is with the great American public. its popu. larity can never be sustained If base ball is to be made a vehicle for gam bling. If fans are to look for thrills to the betting stands. rather than to the excellence and the sharpness of plays, then abseball is surely doomed. This may appear to be an exaggerated statement, but the history of all sports will reveal that it is true.
 Horse-racing. the sports of Kings, has practically passed away. Popular as 1t was. 1t was not popular enough to carry the load of betting that be- came attached to It. The honest pub lie that loved sport for sports sake became disgusted and quit. It con tinued for some time as a sure-thing gambling game. until an enlightened and aroused public sentiment simply swept it aside. The doom of racing can be written in the one word bet ting"

They also say that two firms, which had suspended pay ments. were permitted to continue do ing business, rather than being forced into liquidation. for several days be fore the stronger firms could arrange Co furnish them money on their secur. ities. Further. a panic was narrowly averted in Paris recently, also in Der lin. Rio de Jaueiro has not recovered from crisis that carried down many of it's financial institutions. caused the government to declare long periods of holidays and ofrer her battleships and government owned steamship lines for sale to raise cash to relieve the situ. atiou.
 These circumstances show that the financial and trade depression that has furnished so much for people to talk about is not and has not been confined to the United States and Canada, but is worldwide in extent,
 The process of liquidation has been running its course in this country since the panic of 1907. as the result of the termination of period of frenzied finance that did not cease in other countries until later. Everything in. dicates that this country will be the first to recover from the depression as it was the first to feel the reaction from oyer.speculation.
