ed States had record last year with higher wages and shorter hours and less unemployment than ever before. It was record year. also, for high prices. The cost of living never was greater. It was a,record year for high taxes and higher rents.
 We may as we'll make up our minds that all of these things go together. You can't have higher wages and shorter hours with lower cost of living, and lower rents and taxes.
 The big pay envelope and full din- der pail and general prosperity for the working masses are always welcome, but let no one murmur if, as result, the cost of living is increased and the burden of the rentpayer and tax pay CT made heavier.
 Some one must always foot the bill. The high cost of working and the high cost of living go together.-Leslie's

RAILROAD TO COAL
 FIELD THIS YEAR

That the government railroad will reach the Matanuska coal fields this season seems now to be an assured fact. Senator L. V. Ray, who has just returned from trip over the line beyond Anchorage, says that the rails have been laid half way across the bridge that spans Matanuska river and this brings them nearly half way, the distance from that river to Chick aloon being about thirty-nine miles
 The officials are reported as being certain that nothing will prevent the completion of the road to the coal fields before winter.
 It has also been stated that Fire Island is to be made the base for work on Turnagain Arm as supplies can be shipped from there without interference with the tides. Contracts have already been let for the nine miles out from Anchorage in this dir ection, a portion of the line that will place Anchorage on the mail line.- Gateway.

BRYAN IN THE CONVENTION

Since Nebraska has failed to sehd William Jennings Bryan as a dele7 gate to the Democratic national con vention. there is serious doubt as to whether the Commoner will he able to take any part at all in the deliber- ations of the conventions. He received a number of votes as an alternate. but the primary law of Nebraska does not provide for the election of alter mates, and Bryan's name had to be written ill by the voters. Apparently this action has TO force, and it is probable that the elected delegates will be thoughtful enough>to retire in favor of MT. Bryan, but with his usual astuteress the former Secretary of State may yet find some way to ap- pear in the convention in a capacity other than that of newspaper corres- pondent.
 The action of the convention with respect to it's candidate is foregone conclusion. The character of the plat form, however, is still an open mat ter. The friends of President Wilson undoubtedly will make an effort to write into the platform a complete indorsement of his foreign policy in cluding the notes to which Mir. Bryan objected and which caused his resig- n a finn from the ca hinat
 There will be clean-cut issue be- tween the President, on the one side. and Bryan, on the other, with respect to foreign policy and military prepar- edness or against it.. It must make 9 choice between arbitration, unsup- ported by defensive power, as recom~ mended by Mr. Bryan. if he is not actually present, will be represented by some of his followers. There seems to be a general expectation that the Democratic convention. will be peaceful affair. The sharp line of demarcation between the policies Of Wilson and the policies of Bryan make it certain, however, that there will be sensational struggle for the control of the Democratic party and the formulation of it's platform.-P.I,

RADIO OPERATOR HAS
 PARALYTIC STROKE

M. Musgrave, wireless operator on the s. s. Dora, lies at the Seward general hospital dangerously ill from the effects of stroke of paralysis which he suffered yesterday evening.
 Musgrave, who had been in his usual health, bad just finished his dinner last evening when the attack came. Dr. J. H. Romig was called and the man removed to the hospital. While not entirely unconscious being able to answer some questions by signs, he cannot speak nor move his limbs on the right side.
 The Alaska Steamship Company and the Order of Pioneers here, of which Musgrave is a member, are making an effort to communicate with his relatives who live on the Allan tic coast. Local physicians are of the opinion that he will live, though it is doubtful whether he will walk again.
 Musgrave is the oldest wireless op- orator in the Alaskan service and probably on the Pacific coast. He is an experienced electrician in all lines, having at one time held a high posi- tion with the United Fruit company on the Atlantic coast for whom he ein- stalled electric plants in many central and South American ports.

THE HIGH COST OF WORKING

The anthracite coal strike has been settled. Wages of the miners are to be increased S1O,00O,o00 a year and coal goes up 40 cents ton. The pay envelope is to be larger and the peo- pie will foot the bill. This was easy.
 But what about the railroad strike? If the railways accede to the demands of their employees for an increase of wages estimated at $100,000,000 a year, how will they provide this enor- nous amount unless the raise pas senger rates and freight rates? That could be done easily if the Interstate Commerce Commission would con- sent and the public pay.
 If it is not done, what will become of the railroads? One-sixth of them are now in the hands of receivers and the Interstate Commerce Commission has not lifted a finger to help them. Let us realize the situation as it really is. The high cost of living is due to the high cost of working. High CT wages for the coal miners means higher cost for coal. Higher wages for the railroads or for any other great industry means an increased cost to the public.
 The American workingman lives better than the worker in any other country. He is more efficient, more highly educated, and constitutes a more important element Of our citi- zenship. We believe in high wages, in good living and the best wnrkers, for this means the best workmanship.

COPPER PROSPERITY

In the various branches of Amer ican production that are adding mat erially to the country's wealth cop per has made an extraordinary show ing. In 1914 American mines yielded S205. 100000 worth of copper; in 1915 the output totaled ,GOo in value. At the rate of production for the first four months Of the cur rent year American copper production will reach the great total of 0,000- 900 for 1916.
 War demands has awakened this somnolent industry and made produc- tion highly profitable. The cost of production is estimated at from s to 10 cents per pound. Before the war the market price was around 12 cents. Consumers are now paying 2S to 30 cents per pound for it and glad to get it.
 Alaska copper mining has been greatly stimulated, with the other fields. The Kennecott mines have been developed into large producers, and others are increasing their output. With the newly developed Chilean fields, these will produce this year approximately 252,OOO,000 pounds. The British government purchased 2O0,O00,00O pounds of copper from American interests last month, the largest single sale ever made in this country.
 Though receipts from this one American industry are coming in at the rate of half a billion dollars a year, steel and iron production has :. made an equally proportionate gain in gross value. The production of the farms is another important element of Americas new wealth, and com modities generally have gone to very profitable levels. When the slacken- ing of prices come, after war, it will find very considerable proportion of the worlds wealth in American '.~,1S
