Northwest Police Bring News of Explorer and Capture of SIayers
 of a Priest.
WAITING ON THE ICE
StefanSSon Hopes That He Can Get Away for Continuance of His
 Northern Trip.

DAWSON. Y. T., March 8. - (By mail )-The Canadian Royal Northwest mounted police expedi- ton arrived here today with news of Stefansson, the Arctic explorer who was with the Polar Bear win tering at Prince of Wales Strait The news, the first in months from the explorer, was brought from HerscheI Island by Capt. Lenauze, commander of the Herschel Island police, who made the trip of 200 miles to Fort McPherson alone with a dog team, considered a remark. able feat in Arctic travel.
 Lenauze says Stefansson hopes tho ice will let him escape northward, SO that he can make the North west passage. concluding his voy- age at Montreal Lenauze says the explorer declares the so-called white Eskimos are a myth.
 The expedition brought news that LenauZc last summer crossed Coro- nation Gulf from Great Bear lake and captured two copper Eskimos, who, it is charged, murdered two Catholic priests, Fathers Rouvierc and LerouX, in the vicinity of tho Dismal lakes four years ago. They are held at Herschel Island and will be taken to Fort McPherson in the spring.
 The police expedition, which Jeff here January 6, last, for ten days encountered temperature apprcxi. mately 70 degrees below zero. It reports the Hudson Bay gasoline schooner Fort McPherson last Juno reached the Arctic Red river post from Kittygazuit, on the Arctic coast, the first ocean-going vessel to navigate the Mackenzie delta.

.GANNERYMEN IN

Increase in the Price of Meat Given as a Reason for Fish
 Prosperity.

SEATTLE, March 9.-Increase in
 the price of meats is the reason given by O. Lystad, a prominent
 canneryman from Alaska. for tho prosperity of the fish industry dur ing the last year says the Times,
 Mir. Lystad is in Seattle making preparations for the construction
 of $3O,OOO canncry in conjunc-
 tion with an Alaska herring and sardinc company at Port Walters. He has been prominent in the can ming business in Alaska for the last
 ten years, and the new cannery, enlarging upon the present activity of the company will handle salmon only He will leave for the north on March, 15 with a vessel and scows laden with construction ma tcrials.
 Soaring meat prices have practi- cally put its regular consumption beyond the reach of the poor and as there is much nourishment in fish, the popularity and the use of this product has gradually spread from the west further eastward un- til people of all classes are consum- CTS of the product" said Lystad at the Rainicr-Grand hotel. "We are preparing this year for one of the most successful seasons in the his tory of the Alaska fishing in- dustry and though at the present time the price of fish is not pro- high with that of oth- CT meat products, it is bringing larger prices than it ever has be- fore.
 "We notice no decrease in the mount of fish, the yearly catch be- ng just as large as it was ten 'ears ago, and with the advent of nore hatcherics in the North an see no reason why we cannot Orestall the gradual extermination f the fish,"

 The old-fashioned girl who went to Fortune Teller to find out fl her future husband would be a rich man, now has a daughter who goes to Dun's or Bradstreets for the same purpose.
 If Mother and Father do not want Daughter to marry a no-count mutt she is travelling with, they should start in and boost him and praise him every ten seconds. Then Daughter would get sick of him. But if Mother and Father start in to knock the lad, it is a cinch that Daughter will marry him.
 Figuring it all around, there are probably as many bathrooms in houses where nobody takes bath as there are billiard rooms in houses where nobody plays billiards.
 The reason why a girl knows that she loves a man is because she has found out that some other girl is trying to land him.
 As rule a woman is terribly disappointed if the unexpected does not happen.

A PRACTICABLE SOLUTION

The plan of the Snow and Casey bills for the Territory go fitty-fity with the municipalities in the cost of maintenance of the schools seems to be about fair Of settlement of the school financing problem We are likely to be able to arrive at now. It would mean. of course that the First Division would have aid the other Divisions the maintenance of their schools but as long as Alas ka is Territory those sections of it where popula ton and development are greatest will have to carry
 little more than their per capita share of the bur den.
 The SDow.Casey plan is for the Territory to put up dollar against every dollar municipality will eNPends tor schools with the provision that no city can receive more than S15,OOO That means that if Juneau should ezpead $lJOOO for the maintenance Of heI schools the Territory would put up $l5OOO against ii and provide a S300O0 school fund for the city The amount would constitute substantial assistance to the schools. and the time the circum- stance that the municipality would have to pay half of the expense Of the schools would serve to induce economy in their management.

DUE TO IGNORANCE. NO DOUBT

(EetChikan PrOgressiye.Mner)
 The Washington Herald commenting recently or the act Of Congress making Alaska dry, said:
 When the House of Representatives last
 week voted Alaska into the dry column by
 majority that left no doubt to the sen
 timent Of the Congress on this question was
 influenced largely by the remarks of Dele
 gate James WiCkersham, of Fairbanks, AL
 aska. Delegate Wckersham told Congress
 that Alaska had voted overwhelmingly in fa-
 vor of the punishment of all intOXicants from
 the Territory. His speech furnished the
 strongest argument in favor of prohibition for
 Alaska, and there was strong counter ar-
 gUment M-. WCkcrsham has no vote in
 Congress. He has however voice, and
 marked ability in expressing the wishes or
 the constituency he represents.
 No doubt the Heralds remarks were made in good faith. albeit evidently ignorant of the crcum stances. Had the writer looked into the matter he would have expressed himself differently would have said nothing at all
 The facts in the arc well known Co all Alaskans In his advocacy Of the measure in Con- Ercss the Delegate did not represent his constit- On the contrary he represented his enemies. His real constituents; his real supporters at all elections since he was elected Delegate the first time; his real friends who spent time and money for his re. elections opposed Go the bill making Alaska dry. WiCkershauu when he found that large majority of the voters were opposed to the liquor traffic, like a renegade threw his faithful supporters bone to chew and walked off at the head of his for mcr opponents. leaving behind him his best friends who had stood behind him all these years, through thick and thin. NO, the Herald is mistaken and while we admit the Delegate has a voice, he often uses it o punish his best friends when they happen to be in the minority.

SUFFRAGE ADVANCES

While certain ladies in Washington are planning to march times around the White House and render ram'shOrn septette for the benefit of the suffrage cause. evidences not wanting that some thing considerably more effective if not so dramatic is being done by sullragists in other localities.
 We learn. for instance. that both parties in On. tario have agreed to grant votes to women and that the measure will pass without serious opposition. In Arkansas legislation is all but complete to give the votes in party primaries. which is about equivalent to the full vote, for victory at Demo- cratic primary is generally equivalent an election in that State. By using their power in the party the women get the rest of the voting privilege if they want it. Again. in Indiana both houses of the Legislature have passed limited suffrage bills, following the law in Illinois. and moving suffrage one more State east Michigan. next door Indiana has already come within a hairs breadth of joining the suffrage column, and Ohio is showing signs of falling into line
 In all of this political prophets will the signs of a general breakup.
