relative production OF molasses is increasing so
rapidly, or what to do to obviate this fault.

Unions Liable For DAMAGES

The United States circuit court of appeals for
the eighth circuit, at Philadelphia handed down
an opinion on September Fl, holding that labor
unions, hitherto exempt from civil suit, can be
held liable for damages, under the Sherman and
Clayton Acts. This is expected to have a far
reaching effect settling the ..ne-old and world
wide conflicts between labor and capital for it
places both parties to the disagreements known
as Strikes" on an equal footing before the law.
Commenting on this decision the Philadelphia
Ledger says, THE decision is the first of its kind
ever made in this country. Hitherto suits have
been brought only against instigators Of strikes
and individual members Of unions. The latter
always maintained, and successfully, that not be-
ing incorporated bodies they not subject to
be fined, and that their associate funds were ex-
empt from attachment. Employers whose prop
erty was destroyed restricted to suing en-
ployes, most of whom financially ire
sponsible."
The court now holds that the language Of the
Sherman and Clayton laws extends the rule OF
common law usage which was the resort of the
unions to include corporations and associations
existing under the laws of the States. 1t holds
that Association" in the language used by con-
gress, includes unincorporated as we'll incor
porated associations.
The court further held that union funds are
subject to attachment where property has been
destroyed or damaged, and that the labor unions
are within and not outside of the pale OF the law.

Governor Denies
RAYMOND REPORT
Absolute Lie He Says; Thayer
Changes Mind About Resigna-
. ton; Quits January I

The report, printed in The Adver.
tiser yesterday morning, of the plan to
replace Wade Warren Thayer, secre.
,tary Of the Territory with DR.. J. H.
Raymond Of Maui has been fatty de-.
MED by Governor Pinkham, Secretary
Thayer and Doctor Raymond. - The
Maui medico is reported to have said
that the story was printed with the
view Of hurting his candidacy for the
senate. 4. : @a.. r +
"The story is an absolute Ge,,' said
the Governor yesterday. The terrific
rial secretary is appointed by the Pres.
ident Of the United States and not by
the Governor of the Territory. The
Governor merely recommends, and the
secretary of the interior places the
name before the President. The story
in this mornings paper is without q
scintilla Of truth"
Mr.. Thayer was Just as emphatic as
the Governor In denying that truth of
the report, but then Mr.. Thayer denied
fatty that he intended to resign when
that statement was made by The Ad
-vertiser last Saturday morning, where
as yesterday Mr.. Thayer said:
% 81 intend to resign on the first Of
the year and have so PANIED for more
than q year. Ny only reason for not
announcing it sooner was that the Gov.
ernor asked me to wait for a time.
" Furthermore, ! did not know just
when should send in my resignation
"A kn rr,u n,,k ha
of my determination ahead of time.
"The story of the so.called bargain
with Doctor Raymond is absurd.
know nothing about il and ] should
have heard of it if any thing Of the
kind was in contemplation,
In formal statement issued by the
Governor he said:
"Mr. Thayer has at various times
intimsted that he might resign from
Office for two reasOnsi First, that Of
fee is not overcrowded with work, and
second, If he is to continue in legal
practise he felt that il required more
attention and wider scope than the Of
fee consultation that he had main
tanned with his. former clients.
Recently he has emphasized this
latter point of view, but has not taken
absolute steps necessary to the liberty
he feels his profession requires. 1t is
at his option to do what he believes
best for his personal interests.
Doctor Raymond who is now cam.
paigning in Maui is quoted. as having
said that the whole affair was "news"
to him,
In spite of all these denials the re-
port of the "bargain" is received as
true in many we'll informed circles.

SH|PDU|LD|NG ACTIVITY
INCREASING RAPIDLY

That shipbuilding in the United Sta
ties is increasing steadily is proven in
a report yesterday from the Bureau of
Navigation Department of Commerce.
In the three months ending September
30, three hundred and thirty seven YES,
sells. sailing, steam, gas and unrig.ed,
having a total gross tonnage Of Iii, 1874,
have been built, officially numbered and
put in commission.
In the corresponding period OF 1918,
three hundred and sixteen vessels wers
constructed, the gross tonnage Of these
being only 1926, or considerably less
than half the tonnage of ships launched
in the last three month";
In the last three months, besides
those for American owners, six ships
were built for foreigners, OF those for
American owners, gross tons of new
wooden vessels was 37,757, and Of metal,
S0,0S7 tons.
Owners of new vessels built the last
quarter are all South Americans.
From other sources than construction
two vessels of 1879 gross. tons were
added to the merchant feet, of which
one vessel of 1919 tons came under the
Act of August Is, 1914, and one Of $40
gross tons was purchased from the Uni.
ted States government.
In September fourteen vessels have
been transferred from AmericBn to for
eign flags. Gross tonnage, of these was

British owners a similar number, Brit.

Mexican one, Dominion one and the re-
naming one to a nationality unnamed.

 Prince George Is reached early the following morning, where the first glimpse of the famous Fraser river Is to be had. We follow this river all day. and shortly after lunch the first sight of the Canadian Rockies is to be had. Mountain peaks rise up on all sides. and the climax is reached, where, late fin the afternoon Mount Robson. the highest peak in Canada, appears rising in & sheer isolated mass 13,70O feet above sea level.
 Leaving Mount Robson we con. tinue Eastward, following the shores of Moose Lake, Yellowhead Lake and running through the famous Yellowhead Pass, noted for its low altitude, being only 37O0 feet above sea level and the lowest pass of any of the transcontlnental routes. The Niette river Is now followed to Jas. per. then along tho shores of Atb. alaska river, Jaspar Lake and Brule Lake. The following morning, about breakfast time, the train pulls into Edmonton, the capital city of Alber. ia, situated in the center of a very productive wheat growing country.

Prince Rupert with another steamer for tho South. The people of Alas. ka have patronized this new service to such an extent that on June 18th, the Grand Trunk Pacific de. cided to place their two largest steamers. namely the Prince Ru. pert" and "Princc George" on the route, and 1t is now possible to trav- el to Vancouver and other southern cities without change As, compara. lively speaking. very few Alaskans, are yet aware of the value to Alaska or the new service. the object of this article is to give a brief outline of what the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway is doing in this connection.
 This railway was constructed across the continent, with terminus at Prince Rupert, about forty miles south Of the Alaska boundary. Prince Rupert was selected as the terminus for several reasons, namely, that 1t Is five hundred miles nearer the Orient than Vancouver or other Pu. get Sound ports. It is also two days closer to Alaska than the same Pu. get Sound cities. Those behind the Grand Trunk Pacific realize that Alaska has & bright future, but in or. der to give the railway the full bene. Tt of the advantages mentioned. 1t was decided to place on the Pacific Coast steamships equally as large and efficient, if not superior to any boats now plying in these waters, hence the steamers "Prince Rupert" and Prince George" Theso steam. CTS arc tho largest and fastest of their class on the North Pacific Coast. They have twin.screw en. zines, trIple-expanslon.r an indicated horsepower of 75oO. tonnage 3S76 speed 1874 knots. have accommo. datlons for 3b2 passengers.

room. each room having hot and "old running water. reading lamps, etc.
 Most Alaskans are familiar with the trip down the Coast, but for the tourist contemplating a trip to Alas ka. l want to say that nowhere will they find more awe-inspiring scen- cry than Is to be found on the trip from Seattle Victoria, or Vancouver to Juneau and Skagway.
 With the opening of the Grand Trunk Pacific. Alaskans are placed in closer touch with the East and likewise those in the East are now able to reach Alaska, via Prince Ru- pert. in much quicker time than for merly. when 1t was necessary to trav- ell via Seattle or Vancouver. The trip over the new transcontinental railroad can be made with the maxi mum degree of comfort, the equip ment consisting of the latest sleep CTS. diners. and observation cars.
 A brief outline of the trip east ward will not be amiss. Leaving Prince Rupert in the morning the train follows the Skeena river for a distance of 1S0 miles. On either side the Coast range of mountains rises up and present a very pic turesque sight as the train winds in and out following the course of the river. As you leave the Skeena river. the old Hudson Bay post at Hazleton can be seen nestling in the KispioX valley on the opposite side of the river.
 From this point you follow the Bulkley river with its canyons and rapids. until you come to Smithers, the western portal to the Bulkley valley. which is being rapidly de-

meet with the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway at Winnipeg. If time will permit, stop-overs should be ar ranged at Edmonton, where stop should be at Jasper Park where a few days can be spent to good purpose. A novel idea, put in ef- feet last year for the accommoda- tion of the tourist, was the estab- lishment of a tent-city and 1t proved such a success that the ex- pertinent will be repeated this year. Sleeping tents for the &C., commodation of one. two. three, or four are furnished. fitted up with all conveniences. A large tent Is used for meals also for lounginE. A tourist can have all the attrac- tion of camp life without the incon- venience. The Government has con- structed good trails through the Park, and there are numerous short trips to points of interest such as Pyramid Lake. Pyramid Mountain, Malique. Canyon, Malique Lake, Mi ette Valley, etc. To the tourist who Is fond of glaciers, mountain
 climbing. etc., a stop Is recon. mended at Mount Robson. where pack and saddle horses may be ob- tained for the trip up the Grand
 Fork of the Fraser River. along the shores of Lake Helena, through
 the Valley of Thousand Falls, along side the beautiful Emperor Fails, following tho shores of Berg Lake, with It's Tumbling Glacier on the opposite side, and camp at Rob- son Pass, which Is on tho height of land and on the boundary line
 1f Alberta, British Columbia. Here ono gets splendid view of Mount Robson and 1t is only . few minutes walk from camp to Glacier. Here, also. one can see the waters from the glacier now northward to the Smoky River, and on to the Pa

 At certain seasons the sight of mile upon mile Of ripenine grain impresses one in a manner never to be forgotten. Where ten years ago there was nothing but virgin prairie now Is found thriving towns, each with its grain elevators, load. ing platforms, etc.
 Shortly after noon, on the fourth day. the train pulls into Winnipeg, the capital city of Manitoba. where passengers. without leaving the de- pot. can take trains for St. Paul, Chicago. and the Eastern States: also for Toronto. Montreal. Boston. New York and other Eastern cities. If it is desired to remain over in Winnipeg and a stay in this city will amply repay the the traveller the Fort Garry" can be reached two blocks from the depot.
