AND STATEHOOD

Delegate Wickersham is quoted in a dispatch from Juneau as having said that he will introduce d bill in the next congress asking for statehood for Alaska. It is hard to believe that Mir Wiekersham is quoted correctly, for there is not d school boy of any judgment in Alaska that does not know what would be the probable re suit of such an act.
 The act of introducing d bill ask ing for statehood for Alaska may be a harmless thing in a way, but it will certainly have the tendency to dis courage the federal government in ap- propriating funds for the development of the territory It is only by being q territory that we can get congress to pay for our development, and every

THE WAR A LASTING BENEFIT.

There are not d few of the most pro-
 found thinkers in the land who assert
 that while the great European war
 has resulted in bringing about the most | severe financial and industrial condi-
 tions in the history of the United | States. il is none the less d blessing in | disguise and from the lessons it has | taught the nation will receive a benefit | and reap a profit of inestimible value
 in the future, The deduction is not l based. be it noted, on the probability | that the war deblitated nations of l Europe will be compelled to look to America for an extended period for a great volume of the commodities of life, with d resultant enourmous in trade It is admitted that the wealth 1 of Europe will long flow in golden | streams into the coffers of America | with a resulting commercial and in
 dustral prosperity beyond compare, | but, it is held by the far seeing ones 1 that the immense wealth so brought 1 to our doors is but trifle to an enor- nous saving which will be effected by l the lessening of our imports with for eign lands. due to the fact that the war has stimulated or developed an almost unbelieviably large number of industries and manufactures hitherto languishing or utterly unknown in America It is stated that the almost complete paralysis of foreign manu featuring industries, particularly of Germany, has resulted in bringing into being scores of manufactories of var
 ious commodities for which We have long looked to foreign markets entirely.
 Not because such commodities could
 be moro cheaply purchased in Europe or for any other economic reason. or that America was lacking in facilities of production It was simply because there was a market of supply already created and We therefore paid no at
 tention to the possibilities of home manufacture In many lines we were not even aware of the processes of manufacture until the outbreak of the war when the consequent restriction of imports compelled us to devise ways and means to produce d variety of essentials which have hitherto been
 imported. And when We came to look around it was found that there were countless varieties of manufactured
 products that could he cheaply and easily produced at home II was with astonishment and alarm that We learn
 ed. shortly after the commencement of the war that We were entirely de- pendant on Germany for the largest portions of our drugs, our dye stuffs
The Nome daily nugget., 1915-05-06

and also partially for an innumerable list of textiles and other products all of which could be readily produced in the United States. The raw material was found to be at hand in plentious quantity; it was even found that in many cases Germany and others were for their own supply while we were
 looking to them for our entire needs.
 These discoveries combined with the
 fact that we were suddenly forced to
 depend on our own resources has. and
 is. making a wonderful change in the
 list of our home manufactures. Already over a score of products for which we
 have paid out countless millions of dollars, are being produced in the United States. And further such pro duction has been found equal in quality and as economical as those hitherto
 imported. It is upon the possibilities and as economical as those hitherto i'm ported. Ii is upon the possibilities in this and dndred directions that the wise almost entirely upon our own resources the war has disclosed that we have been wasting billions in purchasing and paving foliage to others when we had
 every facility at hand to save instead of spend The impetus thus given to domestic manufacture il is pointed out will in time produce a wealth incal eulable and comnared to which the inn mediate wealth derived from the crip- bling of industry in Europe will be as nothing It is further pointed out that there is hardly a thing which we have been accustomed to purchase in for
 eign markets that cannot he produced
 at home at cost not in excess of that
 we have been compelled to pay in for eign markets. and of a quality com parable in every WAY. The war has taught ns the lesson and we cannot fail to profit thereby Though the
 great object lesson thus afforded us it
 is pointed out that ultimate develop
 ment of all our possibilities in this re-
 spect will find us in the unique posi-
 tion of being compelled to send outside of our own borders for practically lit i tie and in no ease for other than raw
 products while at the same time the
 larger portion of the world will be ab-
 solutely compelled to look to us for in
 numeral necessary or vital produce When this period is achiVed the worlds
 wealth will come to us. We will be
 sellers. not buyers and instead of pay 1 ing out millions to foreign lands, those millions will be spent it home and among our own people. Aided bY the new Made in America" movement this condition is bound to result and with it's development will come a time of commercial and industrial prosper fly almost inconcievahle From this standpoint it is readily seen that the statement given out k not by any means a dream. or an idle speculation but that is really fact that the great

Superintendent Arthur C. Shoup, of the Alaska Pioneers home at Sitka, re ports that there are 42 inmates of the home at the present time These in mates have come to the home from (, cry part of Alaska and are men who failed to make their stakes in the Northland and were overtal<en by ol1 age and sickness. The home is bean- tifullv situated in the old marine bar racks. facing the parade grounds and looking west over the Sitlla sound. Everything possible is done for these old trail blazers and their last days are made comfortable as is possible under the circumstances. That tho home was a vital necessity for Alaska has been proven by the number of the old pioneers who have been cared for and given a comfortable home by tha Territory.

The attempt of the government to cancel the U s. patent granted nearly seven years ago to Wm B.

shipwreck overlook an expedition sent
out by the Virginia company, and it
was four years later that the actual
beginning Of silk culture wat made in
America.
Silk is unique in this respect. It's
raw material is produced by the cheap
est labor in the world, the silkworm
being the busy little weaver, but the
finished product is among the most
costly Of merchandise.
To the genius Of Charles Marie JAG
guard We owe our present facility in
the weaving Of figured silks and rib
bons. Before the jacquard invention
silk weaving of figured goods was in
deed a complicated labor.
A t the Panama-Pacifc exposition
there is a ribbon loom in operation
which shows great strides in the easy
handling OF figured ribbons. The Sec
ton Of ribbon shown here is acknowl-
edged to be a masterpiece of ribbon
weaving. 1t would be impossible TO
give in SO short a space n adequate
notion of how the weaving is done, but
a person interested In the subject
could get much information and enter

PREPARATION OF LETTUCE

When lettuce comes from the mar
ket clean In cold water and look 1t
bver carefully to e that all dirt and
insects are removed. Place on q piece
Of dampened cheesecloth, then roll up
and put on the ice, when 1t will be
ready for use and will often stay fresh
for a week. Some persons complain
Of sleepiness after eating lettuce. This
is due to the lactucin in lettuce, which
the milky Juice contains. This juice
may be removed by cutting from the
lettuce the lower end Of the heads or
stalks and then standing the lettuce in
cold water for several hours before
using. Keep the head intact when you
wish to quiet nerves or induce sleep.
The following Is a pretty lettuce REL
ish for luncheon or dinner and may be
served in a small cut glass dish: Line
the dish with lettuce leaves, upon
which place either ripe or green olives
and tiny red tomatoes. Chill with
cracked ice. The olives and tomatoes
may be taken with the fingers at any
time during the meal.

Prior to the French revolution France

modern times France was found by
the silk weavers to be uncongenial for
their peaceful occupation, and they

Of them eventually coming to America.

STEAMER CORDOvA >
 IN A BAD STORM
Caught in the Tremendous Tide Rips of Cook Inlet and Battered
 by Gale Slips Anchors.

SEWARD, Nov. 8.-The freighter Cordova, of the Alaska Steamship company, en route to Anchorage with full cargo of freight for the Alas kan Engineering commission, has re- turned to Seward without having de- livered her cargo.
 The Cordova was stopped by the tremendous tide in Cook Inlet and anchored to prevent her being car ried from her course by the wall of water. While at anchor the steamer was struck by gale and was forced to slip her anchors and flee before the gale for safety outside the inlet, narrowly escaping from becoming a wreck.
 The steamer returned to Seward to receive orders regarding the delivery of the freight, which consists largely of railroad rails for the commission. The vessel shows signs of having been in a gale as in addition to losing both her anchors, she was battered by the tremendous waves driven be- fore the gale.

Women in Candy Factory Escaped and Spectators Caught Many

BROOKLYN, Nov. 8.-A majority of the women who were cremated when the candy factory on Sixteenth street was destroyed by fire Saturday were employees of a shirt factory which occupied the two upper floors of the wooden building. When the alarm was given most of the em- ployes of the candy factory escaped from the building but failed to spread the alarm to the upper stories, where two hundred and fifty women were working.
 Thousands of spectators witnessed the destruction of the factory and caught many of the women and girls who hurled themselves from the win dows before the fire department had time to spread their nets. Latest reports show that more than twenty of the women are missing and that nearly one hundred are in hospitals.
