Those who have been, kicking about it's being cold locally had bet ter mediate on that record on the Yukon 86 below. It's, good job the Yukoners have not to de- pend upon coal at twenty-three per ton to keep warm. It surely NoulG be a skiddoo number.

 Bolander yesterday moved his boiler and boilerhouse to another shaft further south on No. Bour- bon. He pumped long enough in the first shaft to satisfy himself that there is no danger of his encounter ing live water.

 l It is stated that another candi. date has come out for the position of Game Warden and is circulating a petition for that end. The new seeker after office has been hereto fore identified with horticultural pursuits. The man who ought to be appointed Game Warden is one that
 will guarantee to re-stock the coun-
 try with rabbits and ptarmigan. In this connection it is worth while
 commenting the advice in the lat est edition of "The Eskimo" to na-
 tives to stop killing ptarmigan even
 though it seems like telling the man to lock the stable when the horse is stalen. The disappearance o1
 these birds as we'll as the rabbits
 is occasioning comment in practi-
 cally every Alaskan paper but SC
 far no ornithologist has come for
 ward with an explanation of what
 is beyond question very interesting
 as we'll as very important phenome-
 non of Alaska bird and animal life.

MORE COAL PROGRESS.

lGliT has penetrated another place long dark AT a

And tst will be good thing for honest dealers and
very bad thing for dishonest dealers AS matter Of fact
would not take long for the strong light of complete pub
Lefty to drive the dishonest dealers clear out of the field
Il was because the public did not understand that bad
feeling toward the coal producers grew wherever coal is
consumed he producer held responsible for every

FLlPPANT AND WRONG.

Y/HEN Benjamin c. Marsh who is described as
w executive secretary of the American Committee on
the High Cost Of Living, on Saturday 6led brief
with the Interstate Commerce commission in the matter Of
the application Of the eastern railroads for permission TO
increase freight rates in which he inquired if as I'VE have
meaess days and heaess days. would it not bs appro
pirate have dvdendess dysa" about the only thing he
accomplished to advertise his own ignorance of the
trouble from which the railroads Of the country are suffer
ing.
Roads that have paid dividends for decades and which
are so strong that they will continue to pay dividends for
year or two mo matter what happens find it just as
impossible to obtain capital for their needs on reason
able terms and their securities show the same kind Of de-
cnes in the stock markets that the stock and bond issues of
weaker road. show The trouble is much deeper than Mr.
March imasnes and it going to be cured by his kind
Of contributions to the discussion.
Even if it possible in law for the roads to suspend
the payment Of dividends so that the money could be used
for the purposes that new capital under ordinary circum.
stances would be applied to the plan would be great
wrong, for the reason that the railroads of the United
States are owned not in Wall street, as so many people i'm
asine, but.by the people. Dvdendess days would mean
great priyati0n for many people.
