Some pay, as Whitman did, in dodgng and slink- ng through the world Ike a hunt ed beast, his mind worried, his alter years of liberty as g fugative look, knowing always that some whera ahead lay the steel-jawed trap all set and ready.
 Some pay with broken health, others with broken hearts, some surrender friends and love; some give all in life worth living for; some cast their conscience to be gnawed by the wolves of remorse; some not only pay their own share in full, but shift part of tho bur den to their children and children's children, even to the third and fourth generation; for the deft must be paid to the last farthing.

SAYS DUTCH HARBOR IS
 PLACE FOR NAVAL BASE

4 writer in the last Century Mag, azjnA says that Dutch Harbor is the best place in Alaska for a na- val base. He believes it could be made a yeritable Gibraltar and would be in the proper position for a war with an Oriental power, while it would also serve as 8 base for tn protection of the MatanuSka coal fields and the copper mines of Cop per river.

The best people of the Island, re- galdless of sex, sect, party or creed, endorse the action of the mayor and city council in cleaning up the re- stricted district and closing the cribs, although there are some-not maGy-who oppose the move on the ground that it will hurt business" About all that can be said in ans Wer to such an argument is that any business which depends for ex- istence and prosperity on prostitu- t!Cn aud on the patronage of pros titutes is not deserving of life or Hberty.-Douglas Island News.

CARE OF ALASKA'S FEEBLE MINDED IMPERATIVE
 NEED
NEED

The bringing into the city from Wiudbam Bay of Fred Trumpf on complaint charging insanity, only serves to intensity the tmpertaiYe need Of a proper institution for the care of Alaska's old, respected and .Itirm prcsDectOrs and trail blaz- ers-the brave souls who have ur- sclfish}y paved the way into isolat- d mountainous sections, winding creeks, hills and valleys and thus created the avenues through which the countless millions of wealth have been obtained and over which un- tCld millions Will come in the futur auI who, through neglect, old age aud insufficient food, find them selves, n ther declining years, suf- te-ing with mental disorders. These gallant souls in declining days are hauled into court upon the jssu- auce of processes which in their yeg~ nature carry the stigma of crjmiuality. However it may be said, iI passing, that such means are the only ones available to get a,y action in behalf Of the unfor- tuuate sourdoughs, due to the lack of funds available for the establish meuL oI a sauitarium to which they could Ls taken, other than pursu- ant to warrants alleging insanity, or even crimes. It has been said that not infreQuentlV have these uuforturates been charged with crimes, petty crmes, to the end that they could be brought in and cared for either in jail or at an ruJside sanitarium.
 What a sad reflection! In Heav- ems name, don't We as a Nation, owe more to suffering Humanity? It is true that Governor after Govern or has recommended the establish mont oE such an institution at whc these men may be spared for many ~cars if proper medical attention is administered. A prominent doctor once testified in the commissioners couIf iu an insanity investigation coucernrg one of Juueau's oldest in haJuauts, that he was emaciated, weak and eufeebled due to lack of wholesome food and proper care, and that this weakened physical condition was the direct cause of mental disarraagement. But the various recommendations have not been needed, and today we are pur- suing the outrageous policy of ar resting our old pioneers, placing on them tue inevitable stain of of lenders Of the law, when such is not due.
 It is to be hoped that the time is not far distant when an insitution will rear itself beayenward, call iug forth to the feeble minded, "COme, enter herein, and ye shall find shelter and rest.
 Would not Tenakee with its won- derrm medicinal waters be m ex- ceIIent place? It is said that these old souls should have a change of climate. We'll, grant this. Then, go to Washington or Oregon and es- tabhsh such an institution to be supported and maintained by the government, and not hire them out to private institutions - Juneau Dispatch.

coIumbus ana the euIf stream.

Columbus and tI:e Gulf stream.
 It is curious to note in the history of the gulf stream how great its influence has been or the fortunes of the new world. Before the discovery of Amer ica strange woods and fruits were fire ouently found on the shores of Europe and off Iyiug islands. Some of these were seen and examined by Columbus and to his thoughtful mind they were confirming evidence of the fact that strange lands were not far to the west ward. These woodS were carried by the gulf stream and by the prevailing winds from the American continent, so that in part the gulf stream is respon siJle for the discovery of the new world.-Lordon Telegraph.
