The shipment of Cook Inlet coal from Herbert's mine at Katchemak Bay to Seward, which was announced as expected several weeks ago was not delivered owing to a misunder- standing concerning the rates,N and the steamer Alliance, owned by Sew ard people, will transport the coal. A barge of coal belonging to Herbert,
 with one hundred tons aboard, was anchored near Anchorage, when it
 was hit by a storm, causing it to drag anchor and strike the beach where the bottom was pounded out of the barge and the upper works drifted ashore.

be the rule for the heads and off, cials of business to have sincere de- sire to beL.er the conditions of their employees, experience proves that in many cases men misuse the power which they hold over their fellow men. It is my opinion that when old age pensions are the rule instead of the exception, much of the cause of strife between capital and labor will have been removed.
 While these forces are generally found in opposition, this does not preclude the possibility of them com bining forces on some particular ts- sue; which may or may not be for the good of the public at large. But generally speaking there is a llck of confidence between the two, which makes this impractical. I think we must assume that differences of opin- ion between them, especially as to the share of each in the profits resulting from conducting business will exist tn future just as it has in the past.
 Because of the probability that these two forces will! continue to con- flict and the possibility that they may combine against the general public. the Government should regulate the one just as much as the other, main taining the attitude of referee be- tween them. In order to maintain that attitude the Government must consist of, as nearly as possible, inn partial individuals.
 Certainly the referee is paid by all and ought to have at heart the in- terests of all

CITY 0F PUEBLA
 REACHES VALDEZ
Liner Was Considered Fastest Boat on Atlantic When on Cuban
 Run-Sister of Mariposa.

{ The big liner City of Puebla, un- der charter to the Alaska Steamship company, reached Valdez shortly aft CT g o'clock last night and sailed for the westward about midnight.
 The City of Puebla has been on the Puget Sound-California run since she came from the Atlantic nearly thirty years ago. Before coming to the Pa cific she piled between New York and Cuba for two years and was consid- cred the fastest boat on the run, hay ing speed of 171s knots per hour. The new class of steamers on the At lantic most of which are oil burn CTS, have placed" the City of Puebla in the shade so far as speed is con- cerned but she is still one of the fav- orites on the California run, and no doubt would become equally so among Alaskans should she remain on this run.
 Captain Cam is in command, and with the exception of the pilots. re- tained all his crew under the char ter. V. w. Heald is first officer and J. E. Miller chief engineer. The pi- lots are J. Taffe and J. H. Johansen. The other officers are Chief Steward Chas. Franke, Purser c. M. Leland, Freight Clerks A. c. Mcdowell and lC. c. Townsend Many of the officers are we'll known to Valdez people who have made the trip down the coast on the steamer and welcomed them to Valdez.
 The City of Puebla measures $40 feet over all. 39 foot beam. 25 foot depth and a freight capacity of two thousand tons. She has accommoda- tion for two hundred passengers, which could be greatly increased.
 The steamer has been chartered by the Alaska Steamship company to make one trip to Anchorage owing to the heavy offerings of freight due to the loss of the Mariposa. and 1t is possible that she may stay on the run for several trips.
 The City of Puebla was built the same year as the steamer Mariposa, and in the same shipyards at Bath, Maine.

We believe that what benefits one city benefits all the territory, and will work in hearty accord with our successful neighbors to secure larger and more numerous concessions; but we are determined to have Valdez take the place her mineral wealth and fine roads entitl, her--as the me- tropolis of Prince William Sound.
 We want to see the smoke from a dozen factories darken the air; and hear the whistle of locomotive and mill. We want to see ships loading at our wharves, and our copper and gold going to the four corners of the earth.
 We have the harbor, the mines, and the highway-let us try and force tardy recognition of our great natu- ral advantages.

Iron Will Keeps Him Alive.

BALTIMORE, Oct. 19.-William Spence, who has been prominent in financial circles for more than fifty years, is celebrating his hundredth birthday today and declares that he expects to enjoy many more years of active life.

OLD LAND LAW IS HELD
TO Be STILL IN FORCE
Act of 1915 Would Change the Method
of SaIes-Act Affecting UnsurVeyed
State Acreage Still Good.

Austin, Tex.-Assistant Attorney
General Graham B. Smedley has writ
ten an opinion to the land commission
er making an important construction
of the new land law, especially that
feature relating to unsurveyed public
domain 1t is held outright that the
new law does not govern in the sale OF
unsurveyed land except where it spe-
officially sets forth such control, which
occurs but once or twice and to a
minor extent. AS result Of this hold
ing unsurveyed land will continue to
be sold under the act of 1905, known
as the scrap law"
The act of April 5, 1915, changes the
method of land sales, fixing three
sales days each year, the LIST of jan
uary, May and September respective
| ly, and shall be by sealed bids. The
law also changes the settlement fea-
ture and reduces the acreage allowed
one purchaser in many counties, bring
ing it down to 100 acres in some
places, and also to two sections, all of
which requires actual settlement. The
old four-section sales are discon-
tinued. Where eight sections are al
lowed actual settlement is not re-
quired. Most of this land is west of
the Pecos. There is little land left for
sale under the 160-acre and two-sec-
ton limitations. The first sales under
the new law were made on Sept. 1.
Where land is unsurveyed applica.
ton is made by the discoverer thereof
and the land commissioner has same
surveyed and appraised The discov-
erer then has the exclusive privilege
of buying the land at the price named
by the land commissioner, under the
act of 1905. Had the act of 1915 been
held applicable such land would have
been subject to public bidding and
there would have been no incentive
for persons to hunt for excess amounts
in old surveys and "lost" acreage. Un.
der Mr.. Smedley's opinion the act of
1905 will continue to control and thus
furnish an incentive for "land hunt.
ers" to continue their Investigations.
| 1t is possible that the opinion may
be tested in a mandamus proceeding
before the supreme court, wherein the
correctness of the holding will be at.
tackled in an effort to force the OBJ.
servance of the act of 1915 as being
applicable, instead of that Of 1905.
