"It has its place" he says, but it's place is not in a mans head,' says he. Tt ought to be the reward iv action, not the cause iv it," he says. Hot whisky is good for cold heart, and no whisky is good for hot head The minyit a man relies on it for a crutch he loses tn use iv his legs. 'Tis a bad thing to stand on, a good thing to sleep on, good thing to talk on, a bad thing to think on. If it's in the head in the morning, it ought not to be in the mouth at night.

CONSERVATION OF ENERGY

Considerable interest is being taken in the present whereabouts of Gene Norton, who took out party over the Seward trail late in November, and who was expected to return immediately Gene is known as a man of powerful physique, and he rather glories in his ability to lift great weights and it is suggested that be may be awaiting at Seward the arrival of the 1600-pound shaft which George Riley is bringing in for his Otter creek dredge. To bring this to Iditarod with his team of dogs would be a feat which Gene Norton would accomplish with much satisfaction. Speaking of Gene's lifting power. Tom Shallow tell sthe follow ing characteristic story:
 4 crowd of rlvermen were discussing the weight of an iron angle bar lying on the river bank, and Mr Norton ventured to sug- gest that he could raise it from the ground Suiting his actions to the word, he grabbed one end of the bar and exerted his full strength, but the iron did not budge. He could not see that when he stopped to grab the bar Joe Hannigan placed his foot upon it few inches from the end. Gene finally gave up the attempt and admitted his in ability to make good, when Hannigan said he believed he could lift it. He made the effort and easily raised the bar from the ground. Gene lost in admiration of Joe's strength, said: That man Hannigan is pos sessed of wonderful strength, but usually he uses it rather sparingly"

INFLUENTIAL CONGRESSMAN
 SAYS FUNDS WILL BE VOTED

WASHINGTON, Jan. 13.-John J. Fitz- gerald, chairman of the appropriations com mittee of the house, stated today positively that the administration can have any amount it requires for the beginning of the work on the Alaska government railroad. Mir Fitzgerald was asked particularly what his opinion was in relation to the hostility which has been made apaprent in some quarters to the construction of the govern ment railroad and he declared emphatically that he denied any such hostility, and that when the question of the appropriation came up the committee would give President Will son whatever funds are required. This statement of Fitzgerald removes what was feared to be an obstacle to the immediate commencement of the construction work It was thought that the opposition to the building of the road might be able to exercise an evil effect on the committee and it's chairman, but Ftzgerald's emphatic words are taken as final
 It may be said, however, that Fitzgerald denies that there is any such hostility as people believe. Anyhow, hostility or not, the money will be available

THE CLIQUE

What is the Clique It is a body of men Who attend every meeting, not just now
 and then; Who don't miss a meeting unless they are
 sick These are the men that the grouch calls
 "The Clique" Who don't make farce of that sacred wore
 "brother,' Who believe in the motto, Help One An
 other, Who never resort to a dishonest trick These are the men that some call "The
 Clique" The men who are seldom behind in theil
 dues, And who from the meetings do not carry
 news, Who attend to their duties and visit the
 sick These are the men the crank calls "The
 Clique" We all should be proud of members like They can call them "the Clique or what,
 ever they please; They never attempt any duties to dodge These are "the Clique" that runs most
 every lodge. But there are some people who always find
 fault, And most of this kind are not worth their
 salt; They like to start trouble, but seldom will They like to put all the work on "The
 Clique" ..

FEAR OF "BOOGER-MAN'
 IN ALASKA'S AFFAIRS

The following letter, by E. L. Sampson, appears in a recent issue of the ketchlkan Progressive:
 Along about 15 or 16 years of age a boy begins to think he knows more than the old man to keep out. He wants to go it alone. And the old man, if he is wise, will keep out But at the same time he doesn't put that boy in charge of his fac tory or store. The lads are wabbly, but he sees that the lad is making the right be- ginning.
 It has been brought out that here in Alaska in elf-government, we are making that beginning. We want Uncle Sam to get out We do not want to legislate any thing till he lets us go 1t alone. It is even proposed to undo the more or less mediocre start that has been made, to show the old man we know more than he does, than which a more encouraging symptom could not be found,
 But the old man knows our legs are wobbly. He knows that self-government is matter of growth, and that the growth will be handicapped by the egotism of those eager for the power to govern, and handi- capped by the mistakes of those who would govern unintelligently.
 It is no time to get. sore and do nothing. few good, intelligent licks right now, and the responsibilities we crave will be shifted our way fast enough. The old man never hesitates when the son begins to show the ability. His concern more often is that that ability develops so very slowly

mature mind that goes with the wobbly legs Mature reflection develops that the government that can assume the powers of the interstate commerce commission, the reserve bank board the trade commission, the Alaska railroad, can constructively o. k. our Alaska legislation.
 Experience Not Lacking
 The editor of the Progressive in reply to the above says that it does not appear to be quite consistent, "As a matter Of fact" he says, some of us came to Alaska with a good deal of experience in legislat- ing which makes the kid comparison in applicable Likewise, the average Alas kan with the average intelligence, even with no experience in awmaking, but with nyeye on precedents can legislate without another power looking over his shoulder. We may lack in actual legislative experi- ence but our experience in complying with foolish laws has been mighty teacher"

LAURIER ON AMERICAN VIEW

LONDON, Jan Sir Gilbert Parker has received letter from Sir Wilfrid Laurler, the former premier of Canada in which the latter says public sentiment in the United States is "even stronger for the allies than you in Europe are aware"
 How could it be otherwise!' Sir Wll- frid asks. Tt is simply absurd, if not sb. solutely insane, in view of the works of Bernhardi, the speeches of the kaiser and the tone of German professors themselves, for them now to make us believe that they were not the aggressors."

JEWS IN BRITISH ARMY

 There are now more than 5000 Jews in the British army The casualty lists dis close wounded Jewish soldiers in many of the regiments at the front, including some of hte famous old regiments like the Black Watch. A fair showing of Jews is also made in the royal navy.
