Moving Men.

Moving Men.
Moving men have large hands re-
plete with hairs and very menacing
manners. If you see a gang of disor-
derby desparados approaching your
neighbours house do not suppose that
it is a group of escaped felons. Your
neighbours are going to move. In their
boyhood and youth moving men were
vandals and defaced public buildings
After serving several Jail terms they
took up the moving trade where they
could smash and ruin undisturbed by
the police. If you plan to move this
spring it is well to stay at home and
keep a stern eye on the movers. When
they are hasty or careless reprove
them. Say to one of them, MY good
mani" and he will respect you. 1t is
customary for moving men to refresh
themselves moderately between trips
so that they will be prepared to let
the piano crash down the front steps.
When Pa Puts Up the Screens.
When pa puts up the screens he goes
| And spends an hour hunting clothes
! To do it In and frets and fumes
And wanders round through all the
rooms
And yells for this, and yells for that.
oh. Ma! where is the hammer at?
And bangs his thumb and stops to
| CusS
| And makes in fact so great a fuss
| That Ma eXclaims, "Now what on
| earth!
You're lots more trouble than you're
| worth
| You're not a help by any means.
| Hereafter I'll put up the screens!'
| Though the doctor is slow to make
out what is the matter with you. he
isn't slow to make out his bill.

On the
Spur of the.
Moment

To Youth.
Oh, high school lad. of bland, insipid
Sinking
And vacant dome, come bend thy
callow ear,
To You it is, though all thy ways be
irking,
We sing this here!
Thy socks and such, we cannot say
we SAVIOR. .-
Thy fopperies. all youthful and in
ane,
And every foolishness you favor
Give us pain.
Still we are moved to do a little verse
A theme you bring to mind. indeed
you do!
And really now, oh, very youthful
person
We envy you!
And when along the evening streets
we see you
With maiden passing by, we pause
to smile
And rather feel that we would like to
be you
Just for u while.
All other loves than thine are dull and
stupid,
Though many are your murmurlnSS
of Mush,
You have by far the fairest boon Of
Cupid
In Spring Crush.

THIS IS AMERICA.

A Kansas farmer sought to take his boy out of the public schools and place him in private German school. The right is being contested in the Supreme Court. Whatever the deci- sion of the court may be, a Kansas newspaper breaches splendid ser mon to all persons of foreign birth in this country as follows:
 "We can't have a nation built up
 of warning nationalities. We can't
 permit citizens of German descent
 to go to German schools; French
 to French schools. If Germans
 want to send their children to Ger
 man schools there is an easy way to
 attain that end; that is. to stay in
 Germany. The same can be said
 with the French, Greek, or any
 other nationality"
 This is America-an English speak ing nation. It is made up of the peo- pie of all countries and their descen- dants, but English is the language of the nation-and must continue to be. We owe much to the people of all nations; we have become great be- cause of the intermingling of the many races, not because few of the races have tried to remain separate and apart. But we shall frown upon racial prejudices and warning nations within our midst It is America, and must remain America.--Dcugla las Island News.

"RUSSIA'S attainment of the task

"RUSSIA'S attainment of the tasks created by the war-regarding Con stantinople and the Dardanelles as well as the creation of free people has not been guaranteed" says the czar in a manifesto to the army, in which he says the time for peace ne- gotiations "has not yet arrived" Rus .ia's aims are somewhat like snow l all rolling down hill. They increase as progress is made. One of the tasks created by the war" was to get the sultan's capital, the dream of a thousand years, and Russia has eu- chered her allies into consenting that she shall have the city of the Crescent as war prize. This is the oppor- tune time and Russia is not going to let go until something breaks. And the allies have agreed among then selves not to make separate peace. Perhaps in Russia Great Britain has a bear by the tail.

to reasonable, common sense and business tolerance.
 Alaska ought to have . population
 of 2,000, ,000 people. She has scan-
 ty s0.000. It ought now to be en- toying the investment of millions of dollars in industries attracted here | by the unusual opportunities await ling the investor. But two per cent
 taxes and six per cent insurance,
 coupled with the hostility of the peo- pie toward advancement, has kept
 our population down to its lowest ebb.
 The coming year promises great things. To secure them we must Jay aside our radical, ultra-progressive- ism and return to a safe sane policy of allowing a reasonable profit on an investment. We must give capi- tai every inducement to locate in our midst, that labor may benefit there from. We must abolish all regula- tive methods that stifie trade. If we do these things Alaska will jump into statehood before the end of the com ing year. The Territory could sup port twenty million people in com- fort. The miner, the prospector, the fisherman, the merchant, the farmer, the business man-all would benefit by the abolishment of destructive "progressivism."

 bitration shall have the right of appeal to the district court of the judicial division where the acci- dent occurs by filing a petition on appeal in such court within twenty days after receiving copy of the written findings and award of the arbitrators, and giving a bond to be approved by the court or judge thereof to comply with the final de- cision in the case. Upon such ap- peal all questions in dispute shall be heard de novo, and either party may have a jdry upon fling writ ten demand therefor with his peti- ton
 "A demand for arbitration of q claim for compensation as herein provided may be served at any time by either party upon the other and it shall be the duty of the party upon whom such demand may be made to comply with the same within ten days thereafter. In case of refusal to comply with such de- mand the party moving for same shall have the right after the expi- - ration of ten days to apply to the judge of the district court of the judicial division where the accident occurs to name two arbitrators to act with one named by the party and the three persons so designat- ed shall constitute the board of ar bitration in the case and they shall proceed as if named by the parties All expenses Of the arbitration shall be taxed to the employer, sub ject to revision in the district court on appeal"
 Another amendment will propose xtension of the law to cover all haz- rdous employments in the territory, uch as railroading, sawmills, can- cries and various manufacturing lants. The present law is consid- red by many lawyers to be class leg station, for the mining operators, by he mining operators and of the min 1g operators.
 The law so amended will be real act. It will take away rom the courts and lawyers contro- ersies over compensation to injured ,orkmen and make such cases mat CTS of business adjustment with rare esort to the courts on appeal. That as been the result in the state which ave such laws.
 The present Alaska law provides hat employer and employe may ue in the district court. They had hat right before and the law added othing to it. It provides that if TO ettlement is made the employe may uie in the district court. The em- love had that right before, without imitation of the amount he could re over.

Workmen's Compensation Laws.

Editor Prospector: The Alaska legislature of 1915 enacted law which purports to be a workmen 5 compensation law, modelled after the workmen's compensation and indus trial insurance laws in force in about twenty states. It lacks, however. many features of the state laws, and is particularly deficient in making no provision for enforced settlement of claims out of court. Therein lies the fatal defect that justifies the charge that the act was never intended for any purpose but to limit the liability of mining companies. It did not in- clude any occupation but mining.
 No doubt most of the legislators who voted for this law did so in goo1 faith. They believed it was what it's title alleges it to be. The legislatur" which will meet next March will have an opportunity to make it work mems compensation law. have drawn an amendment providing for compul- sorry arbitration out of court at lit- tie expense of all claims for compen- sation by injured workmen. This is based upon provisions of the Illinois and Nevada compensation acts and Senator Hubbard has promised to ill., troduce it with any changes which may occur to him as likely to make it more effective. It is as follows: "In case any question of law or fact regarding the application of this law arises in fixing the com pensation payable under its provi-
 sions which cannot be settled by agreement of the parties, the en-
 ploye and employer shall each se- lect a disinterested party, to. act as arbitrators, and these two
 shall select a third. or in case of their inability to agree upon
 third disinterested party the judge
 of the district court of the judicial
 division in which the injury occurs
 shall on request name such third party. Tae persons so named shall
 constitute a board of arbitrators in the case and it shall be the duty of both employe and employer to sub- init to such board within ten days after it is constituted, all facts or
 evidence in their possession or un-
 der their control relating to the
 questions to be determined by the
 arbitrators. Said board shall in
 considering the case have access to
 any books, papers or records of
 either the employer or the employe which may be material to the ques- tions at issue, and the members
 shall be empowered to visit the
 place or plant where the acciden, occurred, to direct the injured em' ploye to be examined by one or
 more regular practicing physicians
 or surgeons, and to do all other acts reasonably necessary for a
 proper investigation of all matters
 in dispute.

 bitrators shall be binding upon
