Reminding us of the ignorance of the people and press in regard to Alaska is paralelled by tba Memphis, Tenn, paper which locates Semitic iu the state of Oregon.
 The first of the Seattle canuery fleet to sail for Alaska this spring was the full-rigged American ship Abuer Co., burn, of Libby, McNeil & Libby, with Che crew for the Kenai caunery.
 An order has issued from tbe immi- grafton department that all stoerage passeugers coming to Alaska, also the officer and crew of all Alaska vessels mu.t be vacciuated before they atart for the North.
 The Vadez Commoner ask fit was simply a coincidence that 'hree days afts- Hsiiuger arrived in Juneau the famous syudicate letter was written, in @hita it vas said that Alaska does not want gopcrnmout owned railroads
 Six dog teaas have been entered for Che A3i-Als=ka sweepstakes' race, which is to be rua April 7- The Nome Kennel Cleo js iu charge of the plans for The event, which Is tbe classic Of the North. Before eutries close, 1t is expected that there wlil be teams from every camp in Che Seward peninsula.
 Ofthe railroad celebrations in Alas ks towns, peyaaps none excelled Chat held at Fair6auks With masked par ades and dances, joy was uurestraiued and every now and tbeh enthu siastic citizens would break forth with the following yell, "Delegate Wicker sbsm's. Cbambe4ain's too, aud Wood row Wilson's cboo, choo, choo-Fair. bsuks the termiual, that will do-zip, zip, boom"
 The public school building at Candle was destroyed by Gre on the night of March 18th. Mise Orr, the teacher, aud two children had a narrow escape from death. When Che ueighbors were aroused and had come outdoors they found Mise Orr and the children stand ing near the ruins in their night clothes. They were taken to the hospital, suGer- ing from frost bites. The thermometer registered 46 degrees below zero.
 The pen with which Speaker Champ Clark signed Che Alaska bill Vas one of Alaska gold and was held in an ivory pen holder made from the tusk of a mastodon that roamed Alaska more than fifty thousand years ago The penholder was carved in the form of an Alaska totem pole by an Alaskan In- dian living at Skagway. Which makes it. clear that even the Indians have con tri5uted to the future greatness of Alaska.
 George Adams, the government assay office thief who was recently released from McNei island after having served a term in the penitentiary for robbing the pokes of Northerners while in charge of the government assay office at Seattle, has started a suit against his former wife in an effort to recover property valued at 54O000 Adams claims Shat heturned the property over to his wife to keep for him while he served his term of imprisonment, and that now she refuses to return it to him. After the conviction ot Adams, bis wife secured a divorce and married ErnaaE Harald. an attornav

THE VALLEY EXCELS IN CLIMATE AND BUSINESS
Return of Walter Hill From a Tour
 of the East.

Waiter Hill of the Walter Hill company has just returned from a two months tour of the east, em- bracing a part of Canada. NJ. Hill found business quiet in the east, in contrast to the activity he discovered on his return to Phoenix. and which was especially pleasingly illustrated in the business of the Walter Hill company which was much heavier than the volume year ago. MT. Hill found the weather almost fore suffered as he did while in Chi ! cago, and Chicago was not the only torrid spot he encountered. He -e- solved that he would never again leave the Salt River valley in the summer time. Future trips to the east will be made in the winter. 1 Speaking of politics, Mir. Hill said that a majority and a large majority of the business men with whom he talked in Chicago favor Roosevelt fol president in 1916. One man feder al judge, appointed by President Taft declared that Roosevelt was the safest man that could be elevated tc the presidency. The strongest senti- ment in favor of President Wilson found by MT. Hill was in Toronto Canada, and elsewhere in the Domin | ion, which has been a great benefi ciary of the new tariff law.
 Concerning the European war. MT
 Hill said it was the opinion of bank
 CTS whom he met that it would be O brief duration. The men who contro
 the worlds money would not lont permit it to be used for a purpos
 which would paralyze the world
 business.

Constructive legislation. not in any way aiding in political or personal aims, is the thing the committee of the Twenty which met and organized last night at the board of trade, will attempt to accomplish ir support of the city administration Cooperation with and advice fo- the commission, the mayor and the city departments will be supplied by the advisory board.
 The committee was called to order by Harry Welch, who had beer named temporary chairman by Mayor Young. MT. Welch read a letter to the committee from the mayor, and called for nominations. A. A. Betts was elected chairman and B. O. Wal lingford. secretary. These with three members at large will constitute an executive committee.
 In his letter Mayor Young outlined the work that is to be done by the committee. Among other things these stand out prominently:
 To help the city out of difficulties 
 seek a way of financing the disposa of garbage, to plan the city's part ir building the new city hall the elim- ination of the town ditch, and such other things as need attention.
 Before adjourning to meet at the call of the chairman, the committee passed the following resolution:
 Resolved: That this committee o' citizens, appointed by the mayor hereby constitutes itself an advisor, committee to the City Commission o Phoenix; and
 Resolved: That it is the sense o' the advisory committee that it shal consult with the City Commission ir regard to constructive legislation ans any other civic matters which ma, properly come before it; and Resolved: That it is the sense o this advisory committee that it shaI | concern itself solely with matter pertaining to the welfare of the city and not with political or persona matters.

SMITH AGAINST
 THE AMENDMENT
House Amendment Giving Pork Barrel Privileges on Reclamation Funds to Be Opposed in Senate-Bill May Be Law Soon.

The charces or getting the recla mation extension bill through the le gal mill will probably not be delayed permanently by the senate's objection to the action of the house in adding tke fund apportioning to their own financial committees pork barrel. Senator Mark Smith yesterday wired the water users that he would op- pose the house amendment taking the power of appropriation and audit ing out of the hands of the reclama- ton commission and vesting it in the finance committee. But will not oppose it in case it becomes appar- ent the bill will be killed" he con- cludes.
 Copies of the bill, with the house amendment have not yet come to not in the original set of proposed changes. those at this end are still in the dark as to it's nature. But from Senator Smiths wire it is prob able that the house is trying to take upon itself the work of doling out the moneys. Representative Carl Hayden opposed the amendment viz orously. After the senate gets through murdering the amendment, the bill must go back to the house. and so on and so forth until both branches have agreed on some sort of a final draft.
 This will not take very long. ac- COrding to officials of the water uS- CTS association.

MINING TOWNS AND SALOONS

Do the saloons help a man mine more ore or drill faster, or attend the various machines better? Do they help him to turn out better days work" I asked my chance acquaintance.
 Well, there is one thing that 1 will admit. A man that is full or one that has just recovered from a drunk is not much use in a mine or anywhere else" Let me ask you another question, Who has the best place in the mine and concentratOr and office, the man You have me there all right, l guess he said
 Well if the saloon does not help a man in the mine or office or cOncen- trator, where does it help him?"
 "Oh, it helps a man have a social good time with other men"
 How about the wife and children? Where does their good time from the saloon come in? If it is so good for the man, why does he not take the wife and children along too?"
 oh. they would not like the sur
 
 selves once in d while. They don't want lot of women around all the time"
 "Oh, I see" I said, The women are good enough without the saloon and content enough, but the men are neith- CT good enough nor content without the saloon? Is that the idea?"
 He laughed but said nothing.
 l said: That argument does you credit What's your business?"
 Who, me? I am in the gents furn- ishing business"
 Is it not true that the best GUS toners you have are the poorest ones the saloon has and the poorest ones you have are the best the saloon has 9" T have never given it a thought, but I guess you are right"
 If the saloons in this town were put out of business how much business would you lose?"
 T don't know but the town would go dead and I would lose some, no doubt We could not have lots of things, roads and other improvements if the saloons did not help pay the taxes"
 Say" I said, have you really thought that statement through? The money men pay to the saloon goes to the manufacturer, the railroad, the wholesaler, the retailer and his help. and the taxes. The men who support the saloon could pay the taxes, and if they kept the rest. instead of putting

it into the saloon, would have a hun dred times as much to invest in gents furnishings, groceries. land or what not, and still have more than the saloon now leaves them. You are insulting your own intelligence when you say a thing like that. Every dollar you get
 from the saloon involves the expendi-
 ture of many others because of the
 poverty and crime that result from the
 liquor the saloons sell. If the putting , out of business of the saloons does not affect the price of copper, nor the pro-
 ductiOn. except by increasing wages be- cause of increased efficiency, where is
 your business going to get hurt?"
 T do not know whether I will agree with you or not, but l am going to think the matter over I guess I have
 not thought this matter through yet l.. B. MATHEWSON,

PUBLIC LAND BILL CONSIDERED

Washington, Mar. 25.-Consider-
alton was begun today by the house
public lands committee of another
administration bill-that for de-
velopment, free from monopoly, of
coal, oil, phosphate and other miner
al sources of the public domain. 1t
provides a leasing system, excepting
Alaska coal lands which are provided
for in a separate measure.
Secretary of the Interior Lane, who
drafted the bill, was invited before
the house committee today to inaug-
urate hearings upon it. President
Wilson has given his approval of it's
general features. Western senators
and representatives, who conferred
with Lane also approve the general
leasing plan, which is adopted as the
administration system of opening and
developing Uncle Sans resources
which have been locked up tight for
years.
