William Grimm Found Dead.

The body of William Grimm was
discovered by the children of Henry
Hall last Sunday evening near their
home, in lifeless condition. 1t
seems he had left his home near the
home of his brother, George Grimm,
in the morning to go to the home of
his nephew, Jim Grimm, going
across the fields, and from the posi-
ton of the body and marks on his
head it is supposed he had slipped
. anG fallen, just as he was going
through the fence. Whether death
was caused from heart failure or
from the fall will never be known.
The coroner was summoned, but he
decided that an inquest was not
necessary The body was removed
to the home of George Grimm, after
an examination by DR.. Mitchell, and
intesnient was made in the Wheels
cemetery Monday.
VIM. Grimm was the son of Calvin
and Hannah j. Grimm and was born
in Wayne county, Iowa, April "a,
1856, being at the time of his death
5? years, 8 months and 20 days old.
He had been an invalid from child
hood and has been under the guar
dianship of his brother George for
several years. While he was quite
a charge he has always been able to
care for himself in a measure

T. W. Hall met with an accident
while riding horseback Sunday that
resulted in his being severely strain
ed through the small of the back,
and compelled him to appear Tuesday
on crutches.
The horse stumbled ana fell down
and in some way Tom was wrenched
through that part of the body. Il
just felt like something tore lose in
the lower part of my body said Tom
in telling of the accident. His ply
sician did not think that a rupture
had resulted from the accident, but
it may have been something of the
kind.
The injury is liable to put him in
bed for a time at least.-Cainesville

short of unreasonable and was, doubtless, so considered by those who might have been inclined to bid if they were given the opp portunity to investigate and make tests before submitting their pro posals. We believe. that the de i, parement. not only chose "a most lnopportune time for closing the bids bufFa3so required the pros .pecnvegbidder to assumess too .great responsibility by fixing ex- cessively long contract periods for a service that was admittedly an experiment.
 If the conditions were thor oughly understood the situation would be different but no one could reasonably be expected to submit bids and put up heavy bonds to guarantee performance of a contract the nature of which they mantestiy couid Know httIe or notning. II the Dius had been kept open until, say september, persons who consiaered making proposals would have had an opp portunity to learn conditions by stuuy, by making trial nights and conducting such other investiga- ,ions as would naturally be con sidered necessary before one would be willing to risk the large expenditures entailed in preparing for a service of such nature.
 To all appearances the depart ment was over hasty in the mat ter of closing the bidding and to this factor more than any other may be attributed the failure of project. Considering. that no one wass given an opportunity to learn anything about the require ments we do not doubt that a second call for proposals would have better results provided that it was made at period when bidders could acquire whatever information was necessary. We believe, however, that the depart .nlent should offer an inducement to experimenting by offering pro posals for a short period of sum mer service. This would tend to induce deeper interest in the proposals by offering the bidders an opportunity to receive renum- eration while learning. the. condi- tions.

WEDNESDAY, MAY IT, 1916.

The almost complete failure of the lnltlal enort or the postomce department to estaOllsn an aerlal mall service in Alaska will doubt less De disappointing to those who have hoped for a chang
 from the present unsatisfactory system, but Ii one accordS the matter due consideration it will be readily appreciated that such result was not unlikely Tn view of the many deterrent features presented to prospective bidders. Indeed, so many reasons may be adduced against acceptance of the department proposals that one might almost say that such re suit was inevitable. As a matter of fact there were very few in ducements for anyone to accept, as will be speedily disclosed by a brief examination of the pro- posals coupled with a general survey of the various climatic and other features of the territory in which the aerial operations were to be conducted. One need not however, go farther than the de partment proposals to hno the primary reason for the scarcity of bids. Even a cursory exam

ination of the departmental pro- gram of routes will reveal to the thinking person that any person or firm offering bid would be running certain hazardous chances that few who are guided by common sense business meth ods would eare4to take.
 The most outstanding feature of the proposals is that theys al- lowed. the. bidder little or no dat ituae in carrying out the require ments and. absolutely no oppor- tunlty to test conditions. ? 'ihis despite the fact that neither tue department or any one else knows the slightest thing concerning the true nature of such an undertak- ing or of the actual conditions under which such service would operate.
 There is little reason to doubt that that the hard and fast pro visions of the department cover ing the proposed service could be complied with under favorable conditions without subjecting the contractor to excessive risks but by no stretch of the imagination may 1t be conceived that Alaska is a favorable field. Aside from the naturally unfavorable clima- tic conditions there are presented a dozen and one inhibitive con ditions due to the generally un- settled state of the territory, al most any one of which would cause a prospective bidder; to think twice before deciding to bind himself to a set of regula- tions which make practically no allowance for the obstacles which must be overcome in order to operate successfully. The sum total of the matter is that the de- partment takes no account of the manifold difficulties and consid- CTS only the exigencies of the ser vice. Bidders were asked to meet crtain fixed demands based upon what the department conceives to b, possible and to give bond guarantee that they would com ply herewith although it was nlanifes;iy impossible for them to know or to learn the slightest thing concerning the nature of the undertaking. By fixing the day for closing the bids on May I2 the department allowed pos sible bidders neither time nor ia vorable opportunity to learn the character of the country or the magnitude of the task they were asked to undertake. A bidder could not reasonably be expect cd to come to Alaska for the pur- pose of investigating while win ter conditions obtained neither could it be expected that such tests as might possibly be made at that time of the year would be satisfactory. Yet, the depart ment, with seemingly singular lack of forethought concerning such matters, asked that bidders bind themselves under heavy bonds to the performance of cer- tain duties about which they manifestly could learn very little except under most unfavorable conditions. This was nothing
