THREE PRESIDENTIAL
POSSIBILITIES

The Washington Star thinks the
next Republican nominee for Presl-
dent win be either Mr.. Burtoni OF
Ohio; Mr. Root, of New York, or Mr..
Fairbanks, of Indiana.
All three of these men have served
in the United States senate. MI
Fair banks has been vice-president,
Mr.. Root has been Secretary of war
and Secretary of State, Mr.. Burton
was offered the post of Secretary OF
the Treasury under President Tart,
but declined to leave the Senate to-
take it.
OF the three possibilities Mr.. Rooc
is the least likely to bestruck by
Presidential lightning. intellectual
ly the equal of any man is the Re-
publican party, Mr.. Root is now
considerably past seventy years OF
age, and is, censtftutionalfy tiirfd
Last year he declined to, run for re-
election to the Senate ir New YORK
because he thought the Republicans
! could not win and another Republi-
can, much less well known, was
elected Moreover, the tone OF Mr..
! Roots recent speeches has been
hopelessly reactionary. Again. it
cannot be forgotten that he presid-
ed over the Taft Roosevelt conven-
tion at Chicago. II is most impor-
able that he will aspire to the
Presidential nomination; it is even
more improbable that he could get
it if he did become candidate.
Mr.. Fairbanks and Mr. Burton are
both cfassed as receptive candidates
Mr.. Fairbanks was candidate fol
the nomination in 1908 and spent
a great deal of money and time in
vain. He is not bad specimen Of
the Republican politician of fifteen
years ago, but there is nothing &C
show that he has advanced steI
since the days OF Mark Hanna, Alb
solutely devoid of either magnetism
or power of leadership, MT: Fair
banks has no record of constructive
} public work to fall back upon.
Mr.. Burton, too, belongs to for
mer generation in politics. He Il
an ADLER man than Mr.. Fairba nix
and less reactionary man than Mr.
! Root, but, like other Republicans o
prominence, he threw away his op
portunities during the administra
tion of Mr.. Taft. His genera
: course of conduct during the debat
, over the Payne-Aldrich bill indicat
ed that he was not satisfied will
that measure, but he did nothing
to improve it and finally voted TO
1t, and later commended it. Fl
voted to GUST Lorimer from the Sen
ate; he voted r~cinct tho Sullowa
pension bill, and thus showed con
side rable political courage; he di
good work both In the House an
Senate in fighting ill-considere,

his credit the fact that he Away

save an estate OF $1,000 from the
hands of one whom he alleges is

ed. would come to care for his
old age.
Instead, he says, he finds that

she has no right to it, and that

ANGELO AND JOHN !
In Which Laugh Is On Other Fellow,
Namely Fawcett; However, There's
More to Come


Meads declared that the health
department expense had merely
been smaller during the past year
because there was less disease,
and quoted figures to prove 1t.
The daily laugh of the Fawcett-
Meads feud came, however, after
Meads' report had been read by
Clerk Nickeus.
81 move that this report be re-
ferred to Mr.. J. T. s. Lyle, of the
Taxpayers league" said Mills.
Fawcett had recently referred
to Lyle a report that the fire de-
partment, in Mills department,
was spending too much money.
1t was Mills chance to come
back" against the mayor.
Despite Fawcett's efforts, Mills
motion carried, and Lyle will be
asked to study the Meads report.

In discussing his recent annual trip to this territory, pr. Alfred H. Brooks, chief of the Alaskan division of the U. S. Geological Survey, expressed himself more than pleased with the seasons work.
 "The most pleasing thing on my re- cent trip" said Dr. Brooks. was the spirit of optimism and prosperity I found prevailing in all sections of the territory. It ought to be mast grati- flying to the friends of the territory and those who have been earnestly working to secure it's development In these troublesome times, when the world is in need of and wants gold, Alaska has it and is supplying it. Copper, that the world likewise needs, Alaska is furnishing, and the fishery products, becoming more valuable to the world every day, Alaska has ana is furnishing. Agricultural develop ment in the Nortland has ceased to be an experiment and is today a practi- cal reality, so much so that in some sections the farmers are raising more produce than they can dispose of.

GOSSIP OF LOCAL
 INTEREST

The closing of the Panama canal has caused a readjustment of steam ship routes and s,ilings upon a andge and costly scale. Coast to coast steamers in domestic trade are routing via Magellan. The steamers Bennington and Burlington. recently purchased by the Alaska Steamship Company of the Rutland Transit Co, Ogdensburg, N. r., will be loaded at New York and routed via the strait of Magellan, this longer route being necessary owing to the closing of the canal This delay is also un. fortunate, as the vessels are badly needed to handle the immense ship ments of copper ore from Cordova to the Tacoma shelter, into which ser vice they will be placed as soon as they arrive on this coast.
