Nowhere else is there a bet
ter place to enjoy prosperity or
stand adversely than on farm,
provided one makes use of his
opportunities. The farm has its
drawbacks" but these are for
those who do not like farm life
and are not willing to make use
of the opportunities for success.
1t is a great drawback" to
have this kind of farmers in a
community, for they draw the
community back and keep it

FRENCH CYCLING CORPS
 AN IMPORTANT FACTOR.

(By Associated Press Correspondence)
 PARIS, Feb. -2-"The winged infan- try" or French cycling corps, has rem dered such good service that the con tingent is being increased consider ably.
 Though cycling as a sport contin- ued it's hold on France longer than on any other country. 1t was, like the automobile, neglected by the army un- til August, 1913, when the minister of war authorized it's use in conjucction with the cavalry with the object of increasing the offensive capacity of the latter. War has proven that it has wider scope of usefulness, be- ing able to replace the cavalry entire ly where the ground is favorable. with the added efficiency of the infantry.
 Cyclists in the army receive the same training as the infantry, with special course on instruction in the use of the bicycle in the field. They are trained in the exercise of folding their machines until they are capable of making a halt, shouldering their outfit and transforming themselves into infantry ready to charge in one minute.
 One of the oldest cyclists in the ser. vice is, no doubt, the veteran Diners, who was one of the champions of France thirty years ago. His two sons, Edouard and Eugene, who were also champions in their turn. are cyclist messengers. Honore Fossier another veteran, and his son Henri, a well-known long distance rider. are al so carrying dispatches.

ENGLAND IS SLOW
 IN RECRUITING MEN

(By Associated Press Correspondenca,
 LONDON, Feb. 12-For the first time since the outbreak of the war the British press is admitting that the French people are a little puzzled abort the slowness of Great Britain in throwing men into the fighting line. A vigorous campaign of edu- cation to promote mutual understand Ing is what is needed, according to the Paris correspondent of the Times. and he hints that the recent visit to England of M. Milerand, the French minister of war. "win be an encour- agement" in this direction.
 "lt is hard" says this writer "to ex. plain to a Frenchman in the street the many difficulties England has had to contend with in the formation of her new armies. A great many of the Frenchmen are under the impress sion that in England We have an ob- ligatory service. A still greater number believe, in the absence of news to the contrary, that We have but the original -one hundred thousand men in France. They are all-igno. rant and informed-frank and gener- ous in their admiration of our troops. but they cannot prevent a certain wistful envy from arising now and then. when they read of our normal lives at home.
 Much useful work is now being done by several of the large newspa, pers which have for some days past been explaining the extent of the eff fort we are making More work oi the same nature can be done both in England and France, and NJ, Miller and's visit will be an encouragement to all efforts in this direction"

FRANCES PRIZE ROADS
 HAVE BEEN RUINED

(By Associated Press Correspondence
 PARIS, Feb. 12-Ram and war to- gether have completed the destruc- tion of the admirable high roads in the north, of which France was once proud. The continual passage of heavy artillery and the laundering motor trucks have worn deep ruts in them, now filled with mud that sticks like glue. Within range of the semi fixed battle line, the ruts are nothing compared to the multitude of funnel shaped holes where the big German shells have ripped out the macadam and gouged sometimes three feet deep into the roadway. Speed is now certain suicide on these routes, and the work of bringing up supplies has suffered accordingly. It re quires three motor trucks now to do the work accomplished by two a month ago. The rapid increase in the French motor equipment has made it possible to surmount the difficulty at the expense of enormous wear ano tear.

 LONDON, Feb. 12-Captain David Jackson, 10S years old, who just died of heart failure at his home in Foot ing, was for nearly fifty years a mas ter mariner on ships between Eng land and America. He made his first trip as cabin boy in 1877.
 Captain Jackson received letter of congratulation from the King on his hundredth birthday and a similar letter each year since.
 One of the old mans boasts was that only once had he been aboard a steamship, all his other voyages hay ing been made in the days of sailing vessels.

SOLIOIFIED ALCOHOL
 IS USED FOR COOKING

(By Associated Press Correspondence)
 PARIS, Feb 12-The commissary department of the army has lately distributed to the men on guard in the advanced trenches solldlfed alco- hol. which is easily lighted by a match, and. burning without visible flame, gives out sufficient heat to warm up rations.
 From the chemists standpoint sol idifed alchol is still inexistent, all efforts to arrive at this result at or dinary temperature having failed. The availability of the so-called solidifed alcohol is due to the genius of the smuggler. About ten years ago n man conceived the idea of crushing grated white soap in n mortar and mixing with it its weight in alchol. In this form the alcohol passed the customs inspector as soap, and a sub sequent simple process of distillation restored the alchol to its natural state.
 This was the process taken up by the army to furnish soldiers in the trenches a convenient, inconspicuous, means of heating their food.

A SCRAMBLE FUR LEGISLATIVE
 JOBS

There will be no lack of applicants Tor the sixteen positions. more or less. which will be filled by members of the legislature when they convene on March 1.
 Among the most important places to be filled will be a secretary of the senate and a chief clerk of the house. Then there will be a sergeant at arms for the senate and probably another for the house, and stenographers and pages and messengers.
 Some of the members of the legisla ture have already pledged their SID port to different ones, while others have left themselves free to be guid. ed by conditions.
 There is already some talk of ecen. omy among advance agents of the law. makers, and it may be decided to an. ply the pruning hook to the Iegislo. tive clerical list.
 What is more probable. however IS that most of the members from the different divisions will caucus in ad vance on some of the more important positions and then effect trades where necessary.
 Most every Alaskan has some sort of suggestion for remedylng either real or fancied evils and the members will have plenty of material on which to work during their session.
 Prediction promises, of course, will. largely govern the trend of the work to be attempted. and the subjects cov. cred in these alone will furnish plen- ty Of work. There seems to be n strong sentiment that there should be an attorney general for Alaska There is a division of opinion over whether the attorney general, the ter ritorial treasurer and the territorial mining inspector should be elected by the people at the general elections. or appointed by the governor, as at pres. ent' save for the office of attornev general of which there is none al present, and which will have to be created.

PUNCH |S NEEDED IN ENABLING
 ACT

A revivival of the cry that Alaska s legislative enabling act fails to enable was heard in the United State Dis trict Court at Juneau when Judge Robert w. Jennings was hearing the arguments of counsel in the test suit entitled J. Epsteyn and A. Greenbaum vs. Jay w. Bell, clerk of the District Court. The action is to recover an itinerant merchant license tax of s2OO.
 Over a year ago Greenbaum and Epstein came to Juneau and opened a ladies' merchandise store. On com plaint of the other merchants that the Territorial law imposing tax on Inherent merchants was being violat. ed, Greenbaum and Epstein went m to the clerks office and paid over the required tax of S20O.

 crusher Put on Laws
 Then came the opinion of the comp troller of the currency that questioned the right of the Alaska Legislature to impose duties upon federal officials in Alaska. Simultaneously the attor- ney-general of the United States sent instructions to various federal oflc- ials in the north that they must not perform duties prescribed by the leg. lslature.
 With the acts of the legislature at. tackled from all sides because of opin. ions that held them Invalid, Clerk Bell could not pay over to the terri torial treasurer the amount of the tax paid by Greenbaum and Epstein. and has since held the tax in trust with other territorial license moneys,
 Delegate Wlckersham was appealed to for an amendment to the organic act, which would validate the laws passed by the legislature two years ago.
 On August 29, 1914, President Wood row Wilson signed the Wickersbam amendment which had been passed by both houses of congress. Now if IS claimed that the amendment has not brought the relief sought.
 In substance the amendment pro- vldes that nothing in the organic act shall be so construed as to prevent the courts now existing from enforc- ing within their respective jurisdic. lions all laws passed by the Alaska legislature within the powers con ferred upon it. the same as if such laws were passed by congress, nor to prevent the legislature passing laws imposing additional duties, not in consistent with the present duties of the governor marshal, clerks of the courts and United States commission CTS, etc, etc"
 Amendment Not a "cure"
 It is claimed that while MT. Wick ersham's intentions may have been the best in the world to cure the de- fleets of the organic act, his use in the amendment of the words that nothing shall prevent the courts from enforcing the legislatures laws" and the words "and nothing shall pre-. vent the legislature from imposing du- ties on marshal, etc." sidestep the issue. Members of the bar say the amendment should have read that Legislative acts passed by the Alas ka assembly SHALL be enforced by federal officials in Alaska"
 It is believed that an interpretation of the construction to place on the or ganic act, without amendment, for the sham amendment went into effect, license tax paid before the Wicker will be made by the court if the case is tried on its merits.
