An expression of gratitude is also extended to the Juneau Band. to Mir. Spatz, and to the two baseball teams who made the game possible. A deposit of s2S2 has been made from the receipts of the game and the as- sociation to clear $2OO when all ex- penses have been defrayed.

SULZER NOT FOR DROPPING
 FOREST SUIT

Senator Charles A. sulzer 1t not in favor of dropping the suit to test the legality of the law passed by the Leg islature at It's last session distributing the funds from the Tongass National forest among all of Alaska Instead of permitting them to remain for expen- allure in the First Division He thinks the legality of the question should be tested not only on account of the money involved in the suit but an account of the future. He says members of the Legislature from oth- CT Divisions. @ho supported the bill. desired that the matter be taken into the courts for the same reason.
 Senator Sulzer's position is stated in the following letter to Richard Bushnell, jr.. editor of the Ketchl. kan Miner:
 Sulzer Alaska, July 12, 1915. Mir. Richard Bushnell ir,
 Ketchikan. Alaska,
 Mir. Dear Mir. Bushnell;-
 Your letter of the 11th regarding telegram from Colonel Richardson in relation to road work by the Board of Alaska Road Commissioners in the First Division this season has just been received and ] hasten to reply as I expect to be away on a trip for the next few days
 The forest reserve fund took up a good deal of time at the last session of the legislature, and many members from the other divisions expressed the hope that the matter would be definitely determined by the courts SO that it would not agitate future Legislators. While l believe the pres. ent case is brought on behalf of all the members Of the past Legislature from the First Division yet from expressions that were common before left Juneau ] felt satisfied that some one would bring this suit.
 For my part can not see the re- lation between the Forest Reserve fund and the fund of the Board Of Alaska Road Commissioners. The lat ter have, believe a fund of approxi- mately S25O.OOO to be expended this year. and the First Division repre- senting as it does the bulk of the commerce of the Territory is certain ly entitled to receive at least S3O,00O aside from any moneys which may be derived from its own forests and paid in by it's people for that particular purpose.
 should not like to see any of the contemplated Improvements halted, and under the great necessities pre- vailing l do not thing the Board of Alaska Road Commissioners will deny this Division the few thoustand dol. lars set aside. or the amount of nearly S3.OOO0OO expended by the board during former years this di- vision has received very small share. Apparently We will not obtain old dues unless We demand it and fight for 1t and therefore favor standing squarely on our rights and insisting on getting them. TO my. mind this is the only course to con- sistenHy pursue
 The members from the other three Divisions expressed great confidence that they were legally and morally right in the stand they took and they should therefore not bring pressure to bear to Gorstall fair legal determin- alton of the question.
 Very Truly,
 CHAS, A. SULzER.

John Randolph's Silence and Panto-
mime Disconnected Opponent
Whom He Really Feared.

In painting the sacrifice of Iphigenia
the artist, 1t has been said, exhaust
ed the emotions of grief and horror
in the faces of the bystanders
lie has left nothing unsaid. How
can he depict her fathers sorrow?"
was the anxious query OF those friends
who were watching the development
of the picture. The artist threw a
mantle over Agamemnon's face. The
blank silence was more effective than
any pictured woe.
One of the most extraordinary ef-
fects produced by absolute silence is
recorded in the reports of conven-
tion in which the foremost men OF Vir-
ginia took part. John Randolph had a
measure to carry In which he looked
for the opposition OF Alexander Camp
bell, man then noted for his scholar
ship and power In debate.
Randolph had never seen the Scotch
logieian, but he had heard enough of
him to make him and his partisans
uneasy. When. therefore, the gaunt
stranger first rose to speak in the
convention Randolph looked at him
with such an air of alarm as to at
tract the attention of the whole con
vention, and as he glanced around
seemed to be asking for sympathy in
his coming defeat. He then com.
posed himself to listen with close at
tention.
Campbell aware of this by-play,
hesitated and lost the thread OF his
argument. Randolph's face by turns.
as he listened. expressed WEAKNESS.
Indifference and finally contempt He
leaned back and yawned. Campbell
sat down hastily. He had lost the
whole force of his speech. Not word
had been spoken, but he was defeated.
Exchange.
