VWICEERSFIAM WILL
 TALK ON SCHOOLS;
 ROAD BILLS TABLED

Delegate Wickerashm will speak on school matters. before the joint legis- iatiye committees, in the House, at 8 o'clock tonight, Chairman Britt Of the House committee announced shortly before adjournment today. The school bills before the legislature will be up for hearing.
 In the longest session of the legis. lature since the assembly convened, the House today passed the bill amending the Roden mining law. an abstract of which was published by The Empire yesterday, and tabled four road bills which had come from committee without recommendation, over the protest of Representatives ] Noon and Holland.
 In the Senate a spirited fight was made on the sulzer resolution asking for the location of one of twelve Fed eral mines, in Juneau. The fight end ed with the memorial being laid on the table, Senators Hubbard, Gaustad, McGann. Aldrich, Willard and Presi- dent Sutherland voting to table. and Senators Tanner and sulzer opposing such action.
 All Want Mine School.
 The debate called forth various opin- ions as to the most practical place in Alaska to locate school of mines. The Fourth division delegation favor ed Fairbanks, under the suggestions of an act which recently passed Con- gress. designating Fairbanks as the site for a mining.agricultural college, and setting aside land for the purpose. The Third division thought Valdez was the logical location. while the Nome Senators seemed Co agree with that suggestion. Back and forth the ar gument surged. with bitterness dis played by Senator Sulzer when he de- clared that "any way 1t goes, the Sem ators from the other divisions will see that the First division gets the worst of it."
 The debate on the sulzer road meas ure promulgated another general row, with the result that 1t was continued until Monday. President Sutherland said he would insist on an equal diyis. ion of the forest reserve fund. and Sulzer declared that to divide the money equally. among the four diyis. ions. would not be fair. He pointed out that out of $3,OOO.00O of road ap' propriations only $75.0OO had been spent in the First division, as against S2.925.OOO in the other Alaskan diyis' ions. We in the first division have suffered from forest reserves, and now when this paltry $52,OOO from the for est reserve in the First division IS available three other divisions want

The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1915-07-09

What makes town grow into a
city while others with equally good
locations remain villages? It is
because in one case there are men
of push and energy, who are not
afraid to spend their time and
money to improve their town.
Wherever they go they tell of the
advantages of their town; they
write about it in every letter; send
circulars and newspapers to every
acquaintance whom they think can
be induced to visit their town, and
when anyone visits it show him all
the attractions of the place and
treat him with such kindness that
he falls in love with them and the
town at once. They don't give
advertisements and spend their
money with a paper out of their
city. to get up a boom edition.
They spend it with the home
papers. A town that protects
home industry always wins.

Maud Muller on a summers
night, went out on her bike in the
bright moonlight. She pedaled
around from six to ten on trip
that would fag the strongest man;
but her heart was light and her
spirits gay, for it wasn't work
twas nothing but play. Next
morning, however, she'd a pain in
her head, she was all played out
and staid in bed, while her mother
hustled in the kitchen below-not
to ride wheel but to make things
go. Though the morning was
hot and she worked by the fire, she
didn't collapse with a punctured
tire. Alas for the girl and woman
see? Things are not as they
used to be.

Some time ago young married
woman of Our town, whose name
we omit, made curious blunder
She put some eggs on to boil soon
after breakfast one morning. They
were still on when he came home
at dinner time. Upon her husband
asking what was in the saucepan,
she answered: Eggs for your
dinner. They have been on since
soon after breakfast. I have tried
them with fork and they are not
boiled YETI His establishment
may rather be imagined than des-
cribed. And the mere mention OF
eggs now brings a rosy blush to
her face.
