INSISTS I RAIL 5 PREFERABLE TO
 RAILROADS

Archdeacon Hudson Stuck, who has returned to Fairbanks for the first time since he made the ascent of Mt Me Kinley, or Denali, as he prefers to call it, when seen by representatives of the local papers, was not prone to discuss the Mt Mckinley expedition or his interviews which appeared in some of the larger papers of the East, partic- ularly the Boston Herald, in which he said that the railroad was not wanted by the majority of the people of In- terior Alaska, but that wagon roads were greatly desired. The archdea- con said that the matter had been closed, that congress had authorized the building of railroads, and he thought it would do no good to open the discussion again.
 When questioned further regarding ing his interview in the Boston Her .ald, the archdeacon said that he de clared that wagon roads were more desirable for the Interior than a rail road, and he insists that such is the case still. He maintains that if con. gress had appropriated $50,O0O.O0O or $35,000,000 for the construction of wagon roads, it would have done more good for the territory than will the railroad, as he insists that it is no trouble to get freight into the coun- ry. but it is very difficult to distribute 1t.
 Regarding his statements on the Outside as to the agricultural possi- bilities of the Interior, he maintains the same attitude still, indicating that he had not been misquoted by the Eastern papers.
 As to the probability of the govern ment continuing it's attitude in re- gard to the construction of the rail road, he archdeacon said:
 Congress has authorized the con struction of the railroad from the coast to the Interior, and there is little doubt that the appropriations will be made by congress Once congress authorizes any particular work, it is not likely to refuse the appropriations for the carrying on of the undertak- ing"
 The archdeacon was questioned as to what he might have to comment on the statement of Edwin S. Balch to the effect that Dr. Cook was the first one to climb to the "Top of the Continent" but he declined to make any statement. In explanation, he said that he had not had an oppor- tunity to read MT. Balch's book, and therefore is not in a position to make any comment.
 Questioned as to whether or not he contemplated any more exploration trips, either up Mt Mckinley or to any other point in Alaska, MT. Stuck said that he would like to make the ascent of the other peaks of Alaska's highest mountain, but at the present time he had no intention of attempt ing it.

NERVOUS WRECKS RESULT IF
 THE WAR

O3y Associated Press Correspondence) LONDON, Feb. S-The number oI English soldiers and officers who have suffered nervous breakdown more ol less approaching insanity as a result of the strain of war. has shown such increase that some of the leading medi cal journals are pleading for specia consideration and treatment for this class.
 Some cases" says the Lancet. "are certainly hopeless, but there are others-and happily these are in pre- ponderating numbers, where there are good grounds for believing that they may again become useful citizens"
 The effects of warfare on the ner vous system are more marked in the case of officers than in the case of en. listed men, the latter in many cases of trench insanity" recovering "fone" after continuous sleep Of from twenty. four to forty-elght hours. Officers similarly afflicted are generally sent to special hospitals for a rest of a week or ten days, but if they fail to show satisfactory progress after that time they are invalided home, on the ground that it is improbable that they could be again employed on active service.
 The powerful effect which modern warfare has on the mind is shown, !" writes a surgeon attached to n British ambulance, "by the dreams and night. mares which disturb soldiers sleep in dangerous positions. Nervous sub- Jects react in a most striking way to the shock of explosions in their i'm mediate vicinity. Some develop a tendency to sleep-walldng and are found wandering about the premises With faces expressing the utmost ter. TOT and anxiety. In the soldiers dreams, of losing contact with his fel- lows seems to be felt with extreme frequency and the horror of isolation constitutes the commonest nightmare or men in the fighting line.
 They dream that they are wander. ing through endless trenches as com. piicated as an artificial maze, or are picking their way through lonesome iorests' The slightest noise during sleep calls up visions of exploding smells or the tramp of armed men throwing them into a frenzy of shout Ing terror, to the indignation of their resting fellows.
 Another common night terror is the dream of a suden call to arms and the inability to find some indispensable article of attire or armament a con ception productive of intense mental agony. Live shells naturally occupv large share of the soldiers attention In dreams, and an exasperating night, mare Is the supposed discovery in ones bed of shell ready and willing to burst. associated with the usual nightmare incapacity to execute the necessary movements to get rid of it Several men have had dreams cen. tering around the inability to with. draw the bayonet from an enemy's body when urgently required for self. defense.
 Yet these nightmare men are as brave as the rest in face of act. ual danger"

GROWERS JOIN
SELLING FORCES

The combination of fruit growers
and Gamers of Western Washington
under one selling head was practically
accomplished at meeting of represen-
tatives of the various organizations in
Bellingham Tuesday The move will
assure the grower fair price for his
berries and fruits.
Lynden was represented at the
meeting by Robert Heaton, d. F.
Smith, Walter Elder, and B. C. Crab
tree. They report a successful meet.
ing, which will result in all the can
neries and associations combining for
marketing purposes. A standard will
canned will come up to this mark. w.
H. Paulhamus of the Puyallup Valley
Association addressed the meeting and
outlined the plans.
Mr.. Paulhamus suggested that the
Whatcom County Association take
over the Bellingham brewery plant, do
all their packing there, and combine
with the salmon packers to market
their fruit He pointed out that it
would be possible to get carload rates
by combining cars of salmon and
canned fruit and marketing them in all
parts of the country.
One suggestion made was that su-
perintendent be employed to visit all
canneres and see that they were run
according to the standard set.
T. II. Smith said the fruitmen of his
section realize that they must join
with the Puyallup growers or someone
who has learned the initial steps of
the business, in order to be successful.
In the Nooksack valley, he declared,
the growers have learned that exper-
ience is needed to market canned
fruits successfully. He maintained
also that a superintendent is needed
to oversee not only the packing but
the picking of fruits. The proper mar
keting of fruits should start with the
pickers, he held.
Robert Heaton maintained that the
fruitmen must operate on a larger
scale in order to market their goods at
a profit. He said he favored giving
the farmers a good price for their
fruits and obtaining a good product,
instead of forcing them to grow an in
ferior product in order to dispose of
their produce at a living margin He
expressed himself as favoring the en-
ployment of a superintendent to cover
the canneries of the state and work
for the output of a standard pack.

1t is proposed that the city sell

construct a new building ON some

if the corner only is sold. This would
give the city a good structure with
