See that the old moot question is
Cp again in Pensacola, as to what
really constitutes a game of chance,
the dear old perennial bugaboo of the
courts. We shall probably hear some
very learned arguments on the sub
ject, which may enIighten our minds
but hardly our conscience, which is
the final arbiter in all these questions.
The great problem of the courts in
this matter is to present the differ
ence between the defendants con-
science and our conscience, which is
some subtle transportation. But that's
the issue that makes justice matter
for the Gods.

ALASKAN FARMS SHOWING
 WELL FOR PRODUCTS

Washington - Alaska's most ia Vorable season for farming known in many years occurred throughout the Territory in 1915, according to the annual report of the four Alas ka agricultural experimental sta tions for that year, just published by the United States Department of Agriculture. Grain, of all the varie- ties grown, ripened, while vege- tables and berries produced abund- ant crops.
 An agricultural reconnaissance of Matanuska Valley, through which the projected government railway is to pass, and to which many settlers have already been attracted, is re- ported. It is said that the region is well adapted to general farming and stock raising and that tthe pros poets for successful farming prob- ably are as favorable there as any where in Alaska.
