Jim Hill again has expressed the
bright and original thought that the
people mind their own business and
let the railroads mind theirs. 1t was
discovered by some one several years
ago that the railroads were inclined to
mind the peoples business as we'll as
their own, and the people have been
on the job, through their Legislatures
and public officers, more or less ever
since-and, if we were to venture a
prediction at this time, it would be our
guess that, in spite of Mr.. Hills ankle

railroads affairs for some days to

 FAIL TO HITCH

LOND0N.-For some months the relationship between King George and Winston Spencer Churchill. first lord of the admiralty have been none too cordial An Incident occurred last week.
 A dinner party was given to Buck mgham Palace to some French oitic- CTS on 24 hours leave. It was one of series, the object of which is to maintain good feeling between the AL lied armies. arranged by the King at the suggestion of Sir Edward Grey
 Mir. Churchill was invited. The din- ner progressed smoothly until the end Of the conversation, at the instance of Mir. Churchill took turn that the King particularly wished to ayiod. The first lord of the admiralty apparently desired to make it clear to the French guests that their country and the rest of the civilized world owe 2 big debt to the English navy.
 Mir. Churchill concluded by bringing his clenched list down on tbe taDle' remardng:
 "It comes to thls. The English navy rules the world"
 The King was furious For Q mos mont silence fell on the table. Then His Majesty said with g slight lauga;
 And Mir Churchill rules Che navy
 Every one laughed except the first lord. who almost Immediately arose. and urging the duties of the admiral. ty, prayed the king to allow him to depart.
 After tho French officers had de- parted, MT. Churchill was summoned to Buckingham Palace, and His Maj esty frankly informed the first lord Of the danger and unwisdom of his persistently braudishlng England's na' val power in the face Of friendly peo- pie, more especially when these per sons are guest, at the royal table.

PHONE FOR OCEAN
 CABLElS SUCCESSFUL

Dr. Gieuseppe Musso. who failed in attempts made about two weeks ago to use between sitka mad Valdez a telephone designed to be used on ocean cables, was moro successful in his attempts at the Westward, and talked between Valdez and cordoya and Valdez and Seward
 The cordoya Times of Feb. 2s con toins the following;
 Dr. Giuseppe Musso. the New York inventor, who is in Valdez to submit his device for telephoning over sub, marine cables to practical tests, has been able to talk with the operator at Cordova, tho voice passing over the cable with the same degree of clear mes as if ordinary telephone wire for short distances was being used. The distance between Valdez and Cor dova over the route by which the cable !s laid is approximately one hundred miles.
 cor. Musso was able to converse with the operator at Seward although the distance Is nearly three times as great. Tho operator at Seward in- stantly detected the difference be- tween the voices when Lieut. Dough- erty took Dr. Musso's place at the phone. pr. Musso explained that the cable between Valdez and Seward was 199 miles in length and that the branch of the cable from the main line to Cordova. 50 miles also had to be considered in making the test, as that portion of the cable consumed the yi- brat.ons."

sMALL CONTRACTS

PERSEVERANCE Feb. 2t.-To the Editor-Late press dispatches from Washington, D. C., shows conclusiyeiy what strenuous eGorts Seattle is putting forth to corral every dollar that the Federal government propos- es to spend in the construction of the new railroad Seattle contractors are now knocking at the door of the in- sorior Department, endeavoring to set themselves placed Tn a position where they can get their paws into the gov emment purse.
 The plan of construction that win meet with the approval of all intelli- cent and fairmindei residents of AL aska. whose doctrine ls Alaska First, is the one that provides that the gov ernment furnish an needed supplies and equipment sell them at cost to tho small contractor or station man" to be paid for at the completion Of his station work The work to be car ried on under the direction of com potent superintendent, assisted by a corps of engineers and timekeepers. Under this plan the small contractor or station man needs no capital to start with except pair of willing hands directed by a stout heart.
 This is the plan adopted by the late M. J. Henry who so successfully con- structed the White Pass and the Cop per R.ver railroads. The only diiier- ence is that the profits made by the general contractor would in this case 20 to the station man who did tue work There is uo man on earth who can advance reasons why this plan should not work on this new govern ment railroad. The Federal govern ment wants no profits from this con. struction work.
 There are hundreds of seasoned and experienced men now in the va, irious towns in Alaska, many Of them idle. who are anxiously awaiting the opportunity to get small piece of this work. There are lots of them 1 here and in Juneau. They are in Cor doya. Valdez. Seward and Knik wait ! ing for the season to open and work 10 commence. They have come from lthe Interior as well as from None and the Arctic regions They have come in from their cabins in the mountains and on the creeks to seize this opportunity to make another grub stake. some to so back to locate other Ophir creek and other Alaska-Gastin- eau mines others to open up farms and establish homes in the vast stretches og promising agricultural Hands on the line of the new road. TO have the opportunity to do these things snatched from them is not only disastrous to the best interest of AL aska but also a shame and scan. fdal. These men can't so to Washing ton 10 plead their case.
 ! These fellows are the makers Of AL aska Help them and the money they make on this railroad work will ] remain here. Let the general contrac- ! tor get Chs new work and the employ ees' reward will be calloused hands chewing tobacco and overalls-a re- petition of Grand Trunk Pacific scenes.
 Let au Aiaskans join fn Q bowling protest that will thunder an the way to Washington.

II Am the United States Marshall for

Pentland had dotted upon his second
son when he was boy. But Charles
was not smart, like George, and when
he married pretty, but commonplace,
Ida Gray, the angry'old man, who
had dreamed of seeing both his chill
dren wealthy and honored, refused
to go to the wedding. He had never
spoken to Charles since the marriage
nor held communication with any
member of his family except George,
who, having wheedled the old man

away. 'Good-by, grandpa" And he
was gone.
All that Toodles had said was true.
George Pentland, fnancier, had in
weighed the old man into bestowing
upon him his entire fortune, which he
had invested in his dubious schemes,
paying his father 10 per cent per an
mum. However, he had only paid
two years income, and in reality this
had come out of the principle. Henry

How Toodles got acquainted with
his grandfather in the first place was
always a mystery in the town. 1t
was Mrs. Clay, who lived next door
to the old recluse, who brought the
news that Toodles and the old man
were hobnobbing upon the doorstep.
Toodles was nine and Henry Pentland
seVenty-five.
What a pity it is" said Toodles,
swinging backward and forward in
the rocking chair, that you didn't
like my papa as well as you like IN
Gle George"
Why" rasped the old man, speak
ing as if to a man of his own years.
Because then you wouldn't have
been so lonesome and miserable in
your old age," said Toodles.
The shot went home. With snarl
old Henry Pentland was upon his feet.
What do you mean, sir?" he de-
manded. 81 am anything but miser-
able"
He went on in soliloquy, appar-
emily. Charles and George were
both dear to me- George had the
brains. He made a success of his life
in the city, where he is honored and
feared. Charles was content to plod
along in country store. He married
a nonentity. He did nothing toward
elevating the family. Why shouldn't
prefer George?"
Because papa's your son, too," de-
clared Toodles, looking up earnestly
into the old mans face. "And NAM
ma says you've never set eyes on
papa since he was married." he added
wistfuIly.
"TeIl me this, sir" insisted the old
man, who put you up to this game?
Who sent you here?"
