Comforting Words
Many an Alaskan Household VIII
 Find Them So.

To have the pains and aches of bad back removed-to be entirely free from annoying, dangerous UT i-ary disorders, is to make any kidney sufferer grateful. The fol- lowing advice of one who has sui fered will prove comforting words to hundreds of Alaskan readers.
 P. E. Sanderson, S19 First St., San Diego, Cal, says: "A severe at tack of la grippe laid me up for five weeks My back got very pain ful, lame and weak. My kidneys were in bad shape. l felt all run down. l read about Doan's Kid ney Pills and got box. They fixed me up all right.

PROMPT ACTION AT LAST

To those accustomed to the iner- .ia. indifference, and somewhat devt ous dealings of the land office in all matters pertaining to Alaska, it must be refreshing to note the prUmptuess and energy exhibited by Secretary Lane in getting to work on the Alaska railroad as soon as the last obstacle had been removed I'd the word had come to go ahead. The wheels were set in motion with the least possible de lay, a purchasing agency was eS- taAIisbed, the heads of the depart meuts seemed to know just where to lay their hands on the men they wanted, and within a surprisingly zhor, time after the route of the railway had been decided upon the work of construction was under way It IS evident that no time is to be lost in pushing the railway at least az iar as the Matauuska coal fields sad making this coal available for navy use. There are also signs .hat t.e same energy will be dis lIayed in getting the government cal mines opened up. Frank M. Jchasou, supervisor of surveys in the general land office is on his way to Seattle, and it is expect vG that he will then make his plans to survey the areas to be retained by the government for it's own use. Secretary Lane has also made the statement that large reservation will be made in the Boring river Ii-3s. and that a survey will be male this summer with the idea of running a line to tap these coal beds. There is nothing surprising ia this news to the well informed as. in spite of the disCOuraging re port from the test of this coal, it bas always been known that this area contained some of the finest zteamiug and coking coal in the world All that is necessary now is to infuse a little life into the land office But it seems i'm possible for this department to ~e2ltze that time is on the wing, 2..t that the present generation in Alaska would really like to get 9s:rou on few of the heat units so generously stored within the cOun- try and yet so jealously withheld from their use. The knowledge that 8 leasing bill has been passed by congress is very encouraging to -hem, but they will all feel a great deal of relief when it is an uounced that a workable lease has been framed bearing the ear marks of a real desire to see capital enter the country and open up the ccal l@uds.-Alaska and Northwest Mining Journal.

Albany, N. Y, March 1.
There is every prospect that within
three weeks the Full Crew-'excess

repealed The Republican organiza.
ton has undertaken to wipe from the
statute books this measure, which was
enacted under the Sulzer administra-
ton. Two previous governors of New
York, Charles E. Hughes, Republican,
and John A. Dix, Democrat, vetoed
full crew laws which were passed
during their administrations.
There will be public hearing by
the Railroad Commute of the AS.
sembly on March 9 upon the repeal
proposition. Before that time it is ex.
pected that the Republican assembly.
men will caucus and agree to support
the repeal bill just as the Republican
senators did at conference which
they held February "a.
At the hearing, grange organiza.
lions. chambers of commerce and in.
nuential business men. as well as rail.
road men. will appear to strongly urge
prompt repeal of this law. which has
proved itself worse than useless.

LONG TIME BETWEEN FIGHTS
Campaign in Europe Compared With
Events That Took Place During
Our Civil War.

The public, waiting impatiently
from day to day for decisive war
news and feeling that the campaigns
are progressing with slowness un-
fitted to the spirit of war, may con-
sole themselves by casting back
ward glance to the long weary weeks
and months that interviewed between
any decisive actions in our own
Civil war.
Consider this:
From the battle of Bull Run,
fought on July 81, 1861, until the
battle Of Seven Pines, on the sixth
of the following June, nearly eleven
months, there was no pitched battle
between the main armies of the
North and South in Virginia, the
battle-ground of the war. Then,
from Antietam, on September II of
that year, until the battle of Freder-
icksburg, on the eighth of December,
there was no more fighting between
them; nor did they fight again, al
though they lay within cannon shot
of each other for FIVE months more,
until they met at Charlottesville,
on the first of May, 1868.
They fought no more from then
until Gettysburg, July 1. Then
from that time it was full ten
months before they grappled in the
Wilderness, early in May, 1864.
In short, there were great inter-
walls between battles that reached out
into months and seasons and twice
into nearly year. Compared to
those leisurely campaigns, the pres

FILLS GAP MECHANICALLY.

New York's marlborough Rapid
Transit company has perfected me-
chanical gap-filling device which will
be used at subway stations on q
curve. 1t consists of grated seq
ment of the platform which is thrust
forward, filing the gap between the
car and the edge of the platform, the
movement being made just before the
train comes to stop. The grating
remains in this position until the
train has started and moved a dis
lance of seven or eight feet. The
gap filler is operated by electro-pneu-
matte cylinder action.
