BAY co.
 CLOSES FORT GEORGE


 4 sad event in the history of the ! West. and one which brings home in marked degree the transformation which is taking place in the one-time frontier is the closing up of the Hud- sons Bay company at Fort George after no years trading.
 This event occurred this week owing Co the fact of the company's post be- ing for the time sideraclled owing to the development of the city at some distance north Of their old location.
 The Fort George post was founded about no years ago by Simon Fraser the great explorer. who. as an officer Of the Northwest Company, establish- ed this post when on his voyage of discovery down the great river that bears his name He called 1t after the reigning monarch of the period.
 Fort George has continued ever since that date as trading post The first location of the post was on the northeast corner of land which is now aaAe tAAAtttt -afAa N~f HNtN taAN ANNtaNANlA NAA which it stands today has been the location of the post for the past 70 years or so- Many a sturdy pioneer has come and gone as o6lcer-in-charge of the staunca old post and through the days Of the preliminary surveys of Che C. P. R. forty years ago before the Rogers pass route had been chosen by the c. P. R. engineers Fort George played an important part Tn later years during the survey and construc. tion Of the G. T. P many an import. ant plan was thought out and ar ranged within thc bleak walls of the old post. All through the many years of the past the men Of the silent places have bartered there with the Indians and carried on the work of civilization which the great trading post brought 10 the Vest (Prince Rupert News)

GENERAL 8-HOUR
 BILL MAY PASS

Unless something unlorscen inter venes the bin providing general & hour law for an Industries in Alaska will pass the House
 When the rewritten bin came up for consideration in the House yesterday afternoon Representative Moran of the Second Division introduced a subsd- tute that would grant an S-hour day to laundries, restaurants, telephone of. fees mercantile establishments. me- ohanical shops. offices. telegraph of- flces etc. Representative Shoup made the point of order against thc substi- ute that the subject matter had been dealt with in the Snow bill with but few exceptions He also pointed out that the House had voted to recom- init the Snow bill to the labor com mittee with unalterable instructions to return bin providing the applica- tion oi the S.hour day to every line trade and business in Alaska.
 Collins Decides lt
 Speaker Co,.lls this morning held that the point against the substitute was well taken; that the House had acted on the bill eXempting from the S-hour day provisions all industries except laundyies. telephone and tele. graph exchanges. hotels etc. and that since the House had by vote of lS 10 8, instructed the committee to re- turn the bill making the act universal the chair had no alternative
 What Committee Bill
 The committee bin in the first sec ton declares that employment for more than a period of eight hours is dangerous to health It's subsequent sections provides penalties.

gree. and while political powers on subjects hardly of supreme importance arc given to the legislature powers which might In any way re-arrange the powers and privileges which are held ace emphatically and expressly with held
 When Governor Strong deplores that the same powers are not extended to the Legislature Of Alaska as have been elsewhere extended. he in g sense makes a most Unsuitable complaint; but it is not any such thing as short sightedness or lack of comprehension winch ruled Che minds of Che Con- yressional Solons when they did grant that political freedom to Alaska. Quite the contrary; when from time to time the proposition of Alaska Home Rule wes put to the House and Senate in committee and when hearings were before that body, the fact was dwell upon that Alaskans were a radical eeople with strong press, and that
 hoy had direct tendencies of more or less obiectionable it progressive, nature.
 Therefore it seemed iudicious Go Congress to give such people an act emasculated to certain extent of tho power which to more reaction. arg aud more easily controlled people might not have been necessary And Chat is all there is to it.
 Possibly the most astonishing fen ture of the entire situation is the fact that James Wickersham, now described in some papers as the Li- berator still saunters through the Hall of Fame as the man who gave Alaska the fullest measure of politi cal freedom, or if he did not actually give 1t himself 1t least through his unaided efforts he secured it for the people ll certainly is extraordinary that Wickersham claiming to be op posed to the interests, at the same time should lay claim also Co being the father of a type Of Home Rule which the interests in the extremity of their wisdom could not have better devised to protect themselves against the people Of the Territory

HEAD TAX AND DIRECT pRCPERTX

 The legisloture is marking time on the revenue bin with the direct prop. erty tax plan assured of passage by the Senate, and likely to be adopted by the House. For four hours iast night both Houses considered taNation. in the Senate the committee of Che whole was presided over by Senator F A. Aldrich.
 The poll tax bill this time however styled 'rhe Alaska pioneer prospec- tors compensation act was favored in the House, after a substitute poll tax bill offered by Representative DrIscoll of Fairbanks had been voted down by the committee of the whole The regular bin taxes every man in Alaska excepting firemen sailors, sol. diers. etc. $i each, and provides pen alties of S1O0 for violations of the act. The United States commissioners will collect the tax.
 Licensing syotem doomed
 it is believed the licensing system of taxation has been finally beaten in the House, although the vote will be close, itwas indicated last night when the Ways & Means sub-committee's bill to license various lines of business was continued on the calendar and the rightof-way given the direct property tax bin. The latter was taken up section by section and with but few exceptions, ii sailed through
 There are other tax bills to be con- sidered by the Senate. those intro. ducod by Senators Aldricli and Tan- ner and imposing a product tax on the fishing industry. having yet failed of final action

ROADS TOO WIDE.
CONTINUED from Page one.1

CONTINUED from Page One.1
to bridges and railroads there is no
need for any Kansas road being more
than thirty feet wide. Twenty feet is
all that is ordinarily graded and that
makes the finest i-.rt OF a road.
1.-THE rest of the road is usually
allowed to grow up in weeds that
make an unsightly highway, breed
ing place for noxious weeds and a
place for noxious insects to hibernate.
When the state was organized a law
was passed taking thirty feet of each
section of land on each of the four
sides to make q sixty-foots highway.
Later the legislature saw the folly of
this and on all new roads opened the
width is now forty feet, except in spe-
cial instances where a greater width
is needed. But for the ordinary roads
this is ten feet too much ana leaves q
lot of weed space.
Save Six Acres Per Mile.
There are about 100000 miles of
highway in Kansas. They average
fully fifty feet wide for every mile of
road. That means six acres Of land
for every mile Of road. 1t is a real
waste and by cutting the roads to
thirty feet more than a quarter Of a
million acres Of land would be re-
claimed to Kansas farmers and the
roadside weed patches. would be
changed into profitable producing
farm property
