permission would have jumped into their saddles and made things interesting for a few days. Then there is another thing The United States will know that when ever one of our sol diers gets a chunk of lead he will have the satisfaction of knowing it was made in the good old United States.
 Now, if any one tells He that an immediate embargo should not be placed on arms and am munition he has got to show me. Carranza has more cartridges than the United States and guess Villa has also. 1 am not sure if the United States can get any. Carranza is getting them and also machine guns in car loads, and the day will come when H and Villa will join forces and turn them against our very selves. Won't that be a grand boost to our great Amerl- can policies and crown to Will sons glory? Makes me sick "
 Had the pleasure of seeing J.. l. Cole in Seattle the other day. He and wife had just returned from tour of the large cities. They only remained in Seattle for fw days and then depart ed for San Francisco. He said that New York was turning out new millionaires every day, and that ii a wave of prosperity ever struck any place 1t was sure lit tie old New York. Said he even had to engage his table seats in advance and then to dine on a twenty spot and expect any change was preposterous, so 1t was a case of throw your money over the transom first and they would do the rest. Same when you want to go to a show; the spectulators buy up nearly the entire seating capacity and then do the scalp ing act If you can get an ordi- nary seat for four bucks you are lucky, if you buy your seats through the box office you can gte some by buying them many weeks in advance.
 He said that New York is O.. K. but not for him. He also spoke about the prosperity of Montana. Says that Butte now has a pay roll of two million a month and the minimum wage ot miner was $4.25 per day, so 1t is sure good times in Montana and 1 presume that many of the Alaska bunch are in that vicinity. Arthur Cole got married to one of the native daughters of Cali fronia, and 1 trust, is now settled and satisfied with life. At least he ought to be. Henry Cole is going to college.
 Met Conrod Breeding later in the day and he told me that it was he for Nome on the first sailing. Said he was sick of the game out here, and that better intelligence teaches him that Ar aska is the best place after all. But I don't know whether he wants to go to Juneau again or not. Heard that Cap Johnson who made the big money on the ehird beach line is badly bent and vii, return to Nome again and pick up another fortune. Wish I could be as optomistic as some people and block out my } future, but, hail, to him that can, and also accomplish. But me tulIlkS tIidl luCic dic mary "'SS ones at Nome, right on the job all the time, who cannot grasp the treasure, and yet there are many who think that, by reason of some past lucky good fortune, there are many streaks up there and by the use of some past ex perience or superior knowledge CD that it will not be much : trouble to make another fortune : when they get back. So, watch |; the smoke. 1 maintain that the . pickings will not be as easy or good as in the days of yore and that times have indeed changed It might be that some of these . old has beens might go back and : show the stayers what's what } CD
