effect that the clause is a dead let ter This advice is that if the gov ernment sought to condemn merely for military purposes, such as hauling out coal for naval use, there could be no question as to its right to condemn but when it seeks to condemn com mon carrier merely to make it a com mon carrier under government own ership then it runs counter to the constitution, as set forth in numerous decisions on the point.
 Moreover. so lawyers say if the government created a rival line that destroyed the possible business of a privately-Owncd common carrier, that act also as demoustratde by numerous decisions of the court of claims, would constitute a taking of private prop erty for public use without due com pensation having been made, as pro-

THE FIRST STEP.

The first of these is the construction of the governments own new line from Ship creek to the Matanuska coal field. It is calculated that Cook inlet, by which Ship creek is reached, is ice free and open to navigation at least six months a year, and possibly eight months. The latter figure has been given to the secretary. Reports only a few days old from Cook inlet are that the inlet has been open so far this winter, and free to navigation, but it is admitted that this is an un- usually mild winter.
 Six months operation, it is calcu- lated would haul out a lot of Mata- nuska coal.
 Moreover, the work would not be dead work in any event. Every mile of it would be used when the Susitna trunk is built, whether the trunk starts from Seward or Portage bay.
 The second possible activity is con struction work on the Portage bay terminal.
 To return to the more eastern syS- tenn; no one here seems to entertain any thought that the Copper River & ! Northwestern will not be acquired in some manner.
 For one thing, stress is being laid on the tonnage possibilities of tha: road, it being argued that better opcr- ation and an extension of that line will do more to promote the speedy in- dustriai and mining development of the territory than could be secured anywhere else.
 It is expected that the report of the commission also will show that the richer agricultural regions of the Panama can be reached sooner and cheaper by building up the Copper and down the Panama than in any other way.
 From facts which have leaked out ! it is believed that the report on the agricultural resources of the Srsitna valley, to be contained in the report ] of the Alaskan engineering commits sion. will not be flattering
 The full report is rapidly taking form. Before it is quite finished there will be another conference at the White House when the whole situa- ton will be gone over again with the president and then the document will be sent to the printer. Even after that no speedy announcement may be expected as to the executive decision.
 Meantime the engineering commits sion. in a body and individually, is having many conferences with Secre- tary Lane. He has absorbed vast amount of information on the whole subject and can talk as glibly as any Alaska engineer on tonnage, grades eccentricities of glaciers and the like. -Ashmun Brown in Seattle P, l.

TURKS GATHERING

LONDON Feb. 3-The news from the battle ground in Caucasa indicates that the Turks are assembling for
 far more important attack on Russian territory than they have tried hitherto The Turkish advance on the Suez canal does not materaze and there is now much speculation whether Turkey really intends to invade Egypt or just making demonstration to keep British troops in Egypt and away from the front in France and Belgium The war seems to be growing larger and larger every day It is now becoming evident that it is assuming proportions which are greater than had been ex- pected at the beginning There is less evidence of at emps to forecast the result and the British people have settled down to the belief that there is long and really serious period ahead.

vided in the fifth amendment to the constitution
 So the game between the secretary of the interior and the Canadian 5ond- holders progresses.
 But meantime the secretary is hav- ing facts marshalled in che coming re- port of the Alaska engineering com mission to demonstrate that the gov ernment can in measure be inde- pendent of the Alaska Northern, Portage bay is one of his best argu' ments. It is reported that he mas estimated that the tunnel from Port age bay could be constructed at cost of not to exceed S2,OOO,OOO, and be completed within two years time bringing the road out at the base ot Kenai peninsula at a point whcih re ouired seventy-two miles of cOnstruc- tion on the Alaska Northern to reach If terms are not made soon with the Alaska NOrthern-and it looks vervmuch as if the situation was tc be permitted to drag-there IS g strong possibility that the summers activity in the western part of the ter. ritory will be confined to one and pos sibly two things.

DEADLOCK CONTINUES

GARDENER
HAS CONE
MARKS BEGINNING OF A WIDER
CULTIVATION OF BLOOMING
PLANTS IN THE CITY OF ARD
MORE.

1t has often been asserted that the
culture and refinement of a people
can be judged by their love of flow
ers. Whether that is true or not,
there is no feature of improvements
in city that creates so pleasant an
impression as a flower garden, well
laid out and planted to healthy
blooming plants.
lt was fortunate day for Ard
more in this respect when Gilbert
Shuman arranged for the coming here
of one of the best landscape garden
ers in the country Mr. w. f. Rob
erts, who for the past four years has
had charge of the Singler Floral
company in Chicago, and /Lo six
years ago was with the Shuman
Floral shop for brief period, is
here and has taken charge of the
Shuman floral plant.
Mr. Roberts enjoyed better health
here than anywhere else he has lived
and he is anxious to make this place
his permanent home. With the ex-
perience and skill of Mr.. Roberts,
the Shuman Floral Shop is now
equipped to do landscape and floral
design work to beautify the yards
and gardens of Ardmore. This work
can be done at very reasonable
price. Fresh budding plants grown
in Ardmore can be obtained, the
supply will be bountifu to meet the
needs Of all, and those people who
turn this class of work over to Mr..
Shuman will be pleased with the
class of work and with the price
they will be required to pay.
Mr.. Shuman has ordered material
to build an addition to his already
large and extensive plant. He will,
when the improvements are made, be
the owner of the largest glass home
for plants in the state. The house
will measure 43X100 feet. With this
addition Mr.. Shuman will be equipped
to care for every requirement made
of him by this town and by the
other towns which he serves regu
larly with their orders for potted
and cut flowers.
1t is hard to reckon the influence
for good that the Shuman Floral Shop
has been to Ardmore. The presence
of these flowers observed daily in
the busy section of the city has Gre
ated a wider love and developed a
keener appreciation for flowers. The
influence has been one of refine
ment and has reflected culture and
good taste on the part of Ardmore's
florist.
Mr.. Shuman deserves the success
