 The Ketchikan Progressive supported Wickersham for reelection at the November election. but in com pany with others 1t is finding out that Wickersham IS looking out for wcks interests first last and alaways On the Federal payroll in Alaska for fourteen out Of the fifteen years he has been in the North he has amassed a fortune estimated at over quarter or a million dollars. While denouneing the Guggenheims he never fails to travel their boats although ndepend- ent lines are operated.
 In a recent interview in cordova Wick announced that the Guggenhem road would be pdrchased by the government. In Seattle few weeks before the an nouncement Of the selection of Q terminal was made, he was peeved because Seward was mentioned as the point that the President would select and stated that It was one of Ballanes dreams which he had poured into the of willing reporter of the Times or the Stan. Why Wick is anxious to have the CoiSoya road made part of the system of the government line which lt will build and operate is known only to him self and possibly Steve Birch but it is certain that he has worked for the sale of the Guggs white elephant
 Some day, Wick the people will tumble to you and your methods and then watch out fo ryou will surely set what has been coming to you since you made the famous decision for the Guggenheims regarding the Bonanza mine.

and obtain sworn statement of the facts for the German government.
 It is considered probable by the of ficials that the German government would admit the error of the naval commander and agree to make the usual reparation Some officials thought that sufficient amends, afte. payment of the damages, would be court -martialling the German officer. l. is made clear at the state depart :nent that whatever action is to be taken as result of the sinking of the Frye it will De entirely disasso- oiated from questions arising out of the entry into an American port of the Prinz Eitel. and desiring time for repairs.
 The vessel could therefore depart, leaving the question arised by the destruction of the American ship to be settled through diplomatic chan nels. Captain Kiehne of the Frye has been asked to keep the members of his crew together so that all the testimony necessary for diplomatic correspondence may be gathered The captain will probably come to Wash !Dgton Saturday to confer with treas ury. and state department officials, and give a personal statement of the circumstances surrounding the sink ing of his ship. It is said in official quarters that the American govern ment took note of the fact that Amer ican citizens, by their enforced pres- ence on board the German cruiser for more than month, had been sub- Jected to unnecessary risks which might have involved serious dangers to them, and that this probably will be one of the points in the corres- rendence which is certain to. develop between the United States and Ger many over the incident.

brarian. In the afternoon an appro- priation was made for the Northern normal school, the bill relating to the jurisdiction of justices of the peace was passed and so was the bill to ap- propriate money for repairs of the Borderland highway. The house bill providing for the formation of elec- trical districts was passed.
 The greater part of the senate in the afternoon was spent in recess, marking time for the house
 In the Night Time
 The house convened at 8 30 for the last time The gallery was already packed in expectation of a warm night but the proceedings throughout were tanner than they had been for days. The first measure was an appropriation bill carrying 5000 to pay the contingent expenses of the legislature. There was no cause for quarrel in that A bill for remission of the brand tax was passed and another amending the statute so that counties, municipalities and school districts whose bonds had been tuned could have the advantage of the inter est on the redemption funds
 It was with some surprise that one of the labor bills, one providing against the importation of armed or unarmed men into the state for the protection of property was lost Housebill 115 per hitting the Bible to be read in the pub lie schools without comment was passed.
 Another bill providing that charters of towns of 5000 or more should prevail against statutes was passed as well as the other bills which have been else where mentioned.
 The senate met at eight o'clock and having nothing in sight sent a commit tee composed of Messrs Martin and Colter to wait upon the governor and inquire if he had any information to communicate to the senate. He had none and from that time on the senate gave itself over to merry making inter- rupted by messages from the house announcing the passage of bills. MT. [ Stap pley introduced a resolution for the continuance of the senate in session for . the carrying out of the legislative pro- gram which MT Webb later announced
 
 vote. Another resolution by MT. Stap- ley conveyed to President Sims the thanks of the body for the expedition of business made possible by his man. ner of presiding.
 The president made a graceful reply complimenting the members on the performance of their duty. He said that not so much had been accom- | rlished as was expected but that could not be laid as a fault at the door of the senate.
 MT. Stapley reviewed the work of the senate especially in the matter of real ly important Legislation which had 1 failed in the house and in reply to his the session for the passage of the inn portant bills, Mir. Goldwater said that l he would consent to remain for a time but not forever, as he would probably have to do if the senate waited upon , the house.
 Two bills were passed by the senate while waiting but neither will become laws. One makes appropriation for an artesian Well in Greenlee county and the other was Mrs. Munds immoral i ity' bill
 As Uncle George Chase had opened the session of the senate, it was fitting that he should make the motion for its | adjournment sine die.

OH, YOU WAR TAX STAMP

You may readily recall a dozen wise old sayings to illustrate large effects from small causes. For example: Great streams from little fountains
 flow
 Tall oaks from little acorns grow"
 A Philadelphia coal operator told me yesterday of a new one. For want of a 1-cent stamp. big consignment of coal was held at his mines in cen- tral Pennsylvania. The operator wish ed to ship the coal, the railroad was eager to haul it, and the purchaser was raving because he needed the fuel that didn't come.
 Just tiny penny stamp held up the whole transaction for at least a day. war tax which went into effect with the advent of December
 Why didn't the operator spend a cent and buy a stamp? He couldn't He assured me he tried to buy one in Philadelphia. Pittsburg, Harrisburg Uncle Sam insists that no coal can move without a stamp being affixed to the bill of lading. Uncle Sam fails to have stamps ready to meet his own requirements.

WIDOWS EXEMPTION

If man dies after his property has been assessed, and it passes to his widow, is 1t then exempt from taxation for that year? This is the question that was put up to the state tax commission yesterday by Joe Burgess, treasurer of Apache county
 Francisco Sais of Concho died May D. 1914, and his widow refused to Day taxes on the property, claiming Q widows exemption. Inasmuch as the property had been listed on the books for taxation before Sais' death the question cf it's status before the law Is vet to be determined.
