1t is to be observed that the
roads that were dragged imme-
diately after the last rain are
smoother now than the roads that
were not dragged. Smooth roads
outwear rough roads Dragging
the roads before they are dry
smooths their surface and hastens
their drying, making them harder
than roads not dragged.-Moscow

That Jamaica ginger, as a soft

more DRINKS in Lewiston than she

That "the trade balance in fa-

That we don t know why the

we don't care as long as the pra-

Love of Money.

The love of money can hardly be the root of all evil, for 1t Is only one per verse passion out of many. But there Is a kind of decOrum about money which makes the love of 1t peculiarly dangerous, since 1t conCeals from the lover the nature and effects of his pas sion. If a man wants too much food, he is evidently greedy. If woman wants too many clothes, she is evident ly vain. But money Is not a thing, like clothes or food, that caD be enjoyed by itself It is only a means of getting things that can be enjoyed, and so greed for money is not a direct greed, but indirect. It is a civilized means of conducting the struggle for life, which to a great extent conceals from those who use 1t the ugliness and the animal nature of that struggle. It Is, in fact, a kind of diplomacy, politely conduct ed, behind which there is war. But the diplomats often do not see the war London Times.

gao7 determination of positions along the rivers course. As some previous positions were found as much as 50 miles in error, a new man ot tho river will fill an urgent neer in future developments in this region.
 For the first 100 miles the river wins through the low lake country peculiar to the territory east of Der ing Sea; for the next 200 miles it cuts through mountains where the rapirs have 6 to S mile current and the banks, in places, rise over 1000 feet directly from the water. The upper river flows through an immense basin, over which are scattered solitary peaks and the horizon oc which is a ring Of dis tant mountains.
 Second only to inc Yukon in size, the Euskokwim is visited yearly by two CT three small steamers, which ascend as far as Bethel; but the recent publication of charts has mad it possible safely and confi- dently to navigate the channel throuah the vast area of mud flats which lie off the rivers mouth, feat formerly exeremely hazardous and requiring sometimes weeks to accomplish. The comparison Of prsent With previous freight rates tells the story of putting the Kus- kokwim on the commercial map.
 For the present the river is still given mostly 10 the Indian and the s0Iaw man. and the rifle, the trap, and the fisp wheel still furnish the main nece5saries of life. But the prosDector and the homesteader have already visited the valley and will here, perhaps, repeat tho story of the Yukon and the Panama. Three creeks, Candle, Bear, and Canon, give promise of long and profitable hydraulic development, rich ciruobar claims have been staked upon the very banks of the river, vast ranging areas for rein dee. are available, and the native Irish potato is the equal of any grown The time is no doubt com ing when a steamer on the river w.u be no unusual sight, when Set dement's will spot the rivers course, and the country will be a home for the wEite man.

RELOCATION OF THE KUSKOK-
 VIM RIVER

On the eastern shore of Boring Sea from Nunivak Island to Nush agaE stretches what Is perhaps Al aska's most unfreQuented river. For the Past five seasons a steamer of the nited States Coast and Geo detic survey, of the department Of commerce, has been engaged on the field work connected with the chart ing Of the approach and entrance to the Kuskckwim river, a work just completed during the past season by the steamer Yukon.
 As a supplement to tho coast work a reconnaissance survey was made inland from Bethel, the head CT d-ep-sea navigation. This was carried for $50 miles to McGrath, the main settlement on the upper giver, from where, on 0 clear day Mount Mckinley can be seen 150 mIes to the eastward. A river steamer can ascend beyond here for 2vJ miles, while the river with it's tributaries offers 1900 miles of uayigable waters.

Secretary sMcAdOO's customs Bleuths ct New York were decided iy up h the air recently, both fig uraf'Yeiy and literally. The trouble started when an attorney came into the office of the New York collect or and announced that he wished to make an "aeroplane" entry and declaration on behalf of his client, v. Carsstron, who had landed on the meadows Of Ridgefield, \. J., after a flight from Toronto, Can aGa.
 Collector Malone called his customs experts into conference on the matter and there was a great pow-wow. Inasmuch as the aviator came over in a Curtiss bi-pIane, manufactured in the United States, 1t was decided that duty could not be assessed on the plane, and, be- sides, there was a court decision to the effect that a ship arriving un- der IS own power is not meochau- disc and could not therefore be dutiabie as such.
 Chegrined at the thought of al lowing the bird-uaa to escape with out contributing something to les sen the treasury deficit, one ex- pert suggested the levying of a 30 per cent ad yaIOrem duty under paragraph 227 of the Underwood tariff law, as a gIue-btrd, dressed.
