Judge Bunnel declared that the demand for smelters on Prince William Sound will be SC be absolutely necessary for the govern ment to extend it's road from the coal fields to Valdez or some nearby point in order that coal may be had at reas- enable figures for smelting purposes. Judge Bunnell believes the present high price of copper will result in the sound properties being developed and becoming big producers.

 land, together with n thousand human lives. owing to an undoubted lack of proper precaution. again illustrates clearly the necessity for stricter gov ernment supervision of the means of public transportation, to the end that the lives of the travelling public shall be better protected and the possibility of further disasters of like nature be overcome as far as such occurrences can be avoided. Hardly a month passes but that some fatality of this nature occurs on one of the many transportation systems of the country some cause entirely unforeseen and the owners are granted immunity from punishment. the fact remains that a lack of proper precaution Is usually the primary cause of the majority of the horrible disasters which occur at In. tervals on the railway and steamship ''aiN'' iithb IistilS LII lHtSe- SnOcklnS horrors can be avoided through timely supervision cannot be gainsaid and the considerable lessening in the loss of life through railway accidents, fol- lowing the enactment of railroad leg lslation looking to the safeguarding of the travelling public and also the em- nlnunnu nf hn
 monstrates conclusively that a more active supervision of the transporta- tion lines will greatly lessen the pos sibiiity of disasters of such character. While the authorities are seemingly in doubt as to the reason for the sinking of the Eastland, with it's burden of pre- cious lives. the majority are of the opinion that the weight of the great number of passengers lining the rail at deriving cause. Others contend that the vessel itself was faulty In con- struction, but, regardless of which theory may be the correct one, the fact that either is offered as reasonable explanation for the tragedy suggests that only a complete lack of precau- ton would allow of the fatality being precipitated through such causes. Ac- cept either suggestion as a definite ex- cuse and the conclusion remains the same; that carelessness or downright negligence, or both. were the predom- mating causes. There is really no

adequate excuse for all but a very while we may justly blame the trans portation companies for operating de- fective vessels or permitting vessels to be burdened beyond their capacity, the fault may. with equal justice, be laid at the door of the government which is presumed to maintain a watchful supervision over the means of transportation in order that the safety of the travelling public may be insured as far as careful guardianship can guarantee.

According to an article by L. F. Shaw, editor of the Cook Inlet Pioneer of Anchorage, published in the June number of the AllAlaska Review. Commissioner Mears of the Alaska Engineering Commission, has adopted a novel method of extending the gov ernmental decision to employ, when ever possible resident Alaskans in the work of constructing the new railroad to the interior through the employment of the homesteaders along the right of way at the task of clearing their own land for the passage of the railway
 As stated in the article where the
 route passes through a homesteaders ground, the homesteader is given the
 work of clearing the right of way, etc
 Tn accordance with this idea, the en-
 gineers are instructed to employ the owners of homesteads wherever poSsi-
 once seen that this results in an not inconslderable extension of the gov
 ernment decision. The Commission
 does not merely employ number of Alaskans to clear the land but also
 goes to the extent of seeking the labor
 of the owners of lands in preference tc
 others. Another commendable feature
 of the Commissions methods of carry l ing on the work of construction is also
 pointed out in the article, namely, the i small unit system, which consists in the employment of group of men un-
 der form of contract whereby the men
 act as partners and share the profits iof their labor. The system is said to be working well and the men who under stand the nature of the work are there by enabled to make considerable more than could be. obtained through ordi- nary day labor, to say nothing of the condition of independence established through the men being in great sense their own bosses. It is stated that the entire work of construction will he carried on in this manner.

OKLAHOMA EDITORS TO
DISCUSS WAR NEW STORIES

GUTHRIE, Okla, May 7.-One of
the chief topics for discussion at the
Oklahoma Press association conven-
ton, which opens here today, will be
how to conduct a country newspaper
in war time. All types of opinions
are represented in the five hundred
newspaper delegates gathered here
and the biggest question before the
convention will be the how to print
all the war news and still keep with
in President Wilson's definition of
neutrality.
With the press agents of all the
European belligerents doing their ut
most to get their most favorable side
of the present conflict before the Am
erican public, editors find it diff
cult and exacting proposition to sepa-
rate the chaff from the wheat.
But all the discussion will not be
confined to war topics. A paper on
the value of linotype in a country
newspaper office and an address on
"Some Liars l Have Known" are on
the program.

NEW YORK, May 7.-New York
baseball fans are indulging in heated
arguments over the all important and
absorbing question of whether the
cause of the Giants poor condition can
be traced back to the training camp.
1t would seem, from appearance any
way, that this is at least contrib
tory cause, for while the former dia-
mond idols of New York fandom have
been limping along the baseball high
way the Yankees have been within
walking distance of the top of their
league on quite few occasions. The
Yankees performance indicates that
their severe spring training is show

standing Of the clubs Of the American
league.

COLORADO BUSINESS MEN
RETURN FROM AUTO TOUR

COLORADO SPRINGS, May T.
After thre weeks expedition in au-
tomobiles twenty-five representatives
business men, headed by Chief Mani
tou, full blooded Indian from the
San Juan valley, returned to this city
today. The tourists motored directly
east over the Pixies Peak ocean-to-
ocean highway as far as Indianapolis,
and returned over the National Old
Trails road and the Lincoln highway.
The tour was highly successful and
the roads travelled were in excellent
condition. Special efforts have been
made by many towns and villages to
improve their sections of the road and
the party was welcomed royalty in
every hamlet.
The tour was under the auspices
of the Colorado Springs chamber OF
commerce and may be made an an
nual spring event hereafter.

training period and from the sport
scribes travelling with McGraw's men
came glowing accounts of the Giants
being in the pink of condition. How
ever, when the Giants returned to-
their old home town the baseball fans
soon saw that there wasn't even a
shadow of color in the former cham
pions' playing condition.
Of course the Giants had big
bunch Of hard luck at their training
quarters. Wet grounds often kept
them for days without regular field
practice at Marlin and warm, sun
ny day was a rarity. Hotel armchair
practice don't help much in the grand
old game. OF the month spent in the
sometimes sunny south less than one
third of this time was really baseball
weather. And not even these days
which could be called ideal baseball
days were punched near enough to-
gether to make them worth thinking
twice about.
When the pitchers needed warmth
and sunshine at Marlin the weather
man served cooling breezes and cloudy
skies. The pitchers did not have
enough good days to get their arms
in any kind of shape and the games
since the opening of the season show
the result Hot weather is what the
| Giant pitchers thrive on.
But admirers of the Giants say the
McGraw men have not yet struck
their stride. And when they do, look
out for their dust! The McGraw ma
chine, 1915 model, has less working
parts than the old champion style ma
chine, thanks to the national commits
/ sion, but followers of the Giants will
not admit fewer men have weakened
the team. On May /, McGraw trim.
med his team right down to the bone
letting five promising recruits loost
on that date. And what remains ol
the Gaints' force is all meat--there's
no excess baggage to be Pullmanet
half across the continent.
The argument is frequently heart
| that the Giants need reinforcement!
and not reductions of their playing
talent, but this is beside the point
None of the men who were divorced
from the Giant squad this year, be
cause of the limited player rule, coulC
have aided the team to any materia
extent this season. Probably not {
single one would have ever battet
a ball in regular game.
They showed flash of brillian
form at the opening. Since then the.
have been coasting. But New Yorl
fandom is not discouraged. Thu
Giants, after all, are New York
baseball idols and the man in th'
street never loses faith in the gods.
