The great possibilities of southeastern
Alaska lie in its fish, its woods and its min
erals. The beds Of the ocean are paved with
halibut, and millions of salmon are caught
and canned every season. There are fish
packing establishments on many Of the ISL
ands, and the towns are devoted TO fishing
and mining. Ketchikan is perhaps the chief
fishing center, but there are large canneries
also at Petersburg, Wrangell Juneau and
Sitka. The salmon run every season and
the canneries are located near the mouths of
the streams, where the fish can be brought
in boats and cooked and packed for all parts
of the world.

HUCHES' STRENGTH
 DOMINATES WHOLE
 C. 0.P. CONVENTION
Now Believed Justice Will Be Nominated On Third Ballot And That T. R. Will Not Have a Look In
(sy Review Leased wire.l

CHICAGO, June 7-More political leaders are predicting the nomination of Justice Chas. E. Hughes tonight than at any time since the Republican national convention began to assemble They declare that unless the action of overwhelming circumstantial evidence fails to reflect the situation in it's true light. the nomination of the justice will come even sooner than has been predicted. The men who take this view are politicians who do not make estimates unless they are based on careful canvass of the delegates. The situation is illustrated by the fact that conferences between leaders as to both the availability of different can didates practically have ceased inti- mating their belief that a majority of delegates have professed a preference for Justice Hughes.
 Four days of constant and persis- tent effort to bring the two parties to- gether. in which the personality of the nominee was subordinated to harmony failed to bring the results desired and from the outset was definitely directed toward the nomination of Justice Hughes Had Col. Roosevelt announc- ed during this period that he would not supportthe justice, the leaders were prepared to turn to any of the Republican candidates. The Colonel remained silent. and because the man. agers of other candidates had fostered the Hughes boom for the purpose of eliminating Roosevelt as possibility. it grew prodigiously. and even com bination of the favorite son strength was powerless to check it. The req son for this was that the candidacy of any other Republican made little progress and delegates pledged to fav-

w. Murray Crane, Senator Lodge, Reed Shoot and a lot of others came in practically unannounced probably because a majority of the delegates did not even know them by sight. Chauncey Depew was surrounded by a small admiring group. Senator Penrose got a recognition from his own delegation, Gov. Whitman was recognized by some but on the whole the convention was more interested in wondering what was going on in the Auditorium than it was in the ar rival of the men who hitherto have decided what the convent on should do with itself.
 The hour for assembling was set for II o'clock but there was no sem- blance of order at that time and no one made any pretense of securing 1t. The delegates stood about the floor and talked, the spectators overfowed into the spaces reserved for the del egates and hundreds of seats on the floor and in the galleries were empty. Chairman Hilles gave signs of calling the convention to order and the uni formed police began moving about urging the delegates into their places
 Finally, at 1l:2S o'clock, Chairman Hills brought down the gavel with three resounding whacks and quiet settled down over the big hall
 "PaIitics-Patriotism."
 "The hour of II o'clock having ar rived and a quorum being present" said he. the convention will be in order. Paraphrasing remark made by the late President Mckinley, this is a year-whateve rmay have been true of pf past years-when politics is patriotism and patriotism is poli- tics. Therefore the auditorium will please rise and sing two verses of America"
 The band launched into the air and led by a male quartette. the floor and galleries joined in a mighty chorus that swept through the big Coliseum. There was a moment of confusion at the end of the singing as the delegates found their seats again and then the Rev. John Timothy Stone. of Chicago, read a prayer.
 The big convention remained seated at his request
 Secretary Reynolds then read the call for the convention which was published last December It was only a formality None of the delegates wanted to hear it So they talked and moved about while MT. Reynolds kept on. That over Chairman Hilles pre- sented Senator Harding, of Ohio. as temporary chairman and put the ques- tion.

CHAPTER ~.

Two days later, about the middle of
the forenoon, Duane dragged the two
horses up the last ascent of an exceed
lngly rough trail and found himself on
top of the Rim Rock, with a beautifu1
green valley at his feet, the yellow,
sluggish Rio Grande shining in the
sun, and the great, wild, mountainous
barren of Mexico stretching to the
south.
Duane had not fallen in with anv
Travellers. He had taken the likeliest
looking trail he had come across,
Where it had led him he had not the
slightest idea, except that here was
the river, and probably the inclosed
valley was the retreat of some famous
outlaw.
No wonder outlaws were safe in that
wild refuge! Duane had spent the last
two days climbing the toughest and
o difficult trail he had ever seen.
From the looks of the descent he imag-
ined the worst part of his travel was
yet to come. No improbably it was
1000 feet down to the river. The wedge
shaped valley. green with alfalfa and
cottonwood, and nesting down amid
the bare walls of yellow rock, was a
delight and a relief to his tired eyes.
Eager to get down to a level and to
find a place to rest, Duane began the
descent.

some fresh water, thinking his COM
rade woul surely want some. When
he returned Stevens made no sign that
he wanted anything. There was
Duane realized what it meant.
"Pard, you-stuck-to mel" the out
law whispered.
Duane caught a hint of gladness in
the voice; he traced a faint surprise
in he haggard face. Stevens seemed
like a little child.
To Duane the moment was sad, ele-
mental, big. with a burden of mystery
he could not understand.
Duane buried him in a shallow arroyo
heaped up a pile of stones to
mark the grave. That done, he saddled
ms comrades horse, hung the
over the pominel; and, mounting his
own steed, he rode down the trail in
the gathering twilight.

Apparently that exhausted the fund

been eager to impart. He lapsed into
silence and lay with closed eyes. Mean

waved the mosquitoes; the birds came
down to splash in the shallow stream:
