 Although residents of Alaska appreciate the ben eft conferred them by Congress in authorizing construction of government railroad in the Terri tory, yet they beginning to realize that there is room for improvement in the way that project financed Congress authorized bond issue to pay for the road While the bill pending, w. w. Bailey, Pennsyvania offered an amendment providing that the bonds be paid for by taxation of the land values which the road would create.
 Some going to get these values, he gued. If the government did not take them to pay for the road private land speculator would. Then the settlers who would go Alaska to develop its resources would be held up by the land monopo- lies. f&33
 However, Congress was in no mood to listen Bailey's amendment received but 27 votes. Perhaps the feelings of the members voiced by Senator Williams of Mississippi, who asked what he thought of paying for the road by taking the land values created by it. He replied
 "As the little boy said about the apple core, There won't be any!'"
 Now the road is being built and is in partial op- Hams.
 correspondent in Alaska describes conditions as follows:
 Anchorage, the terminus of the railroad was an uninhabited piece of wood land in 1914 When the lots surveyed they offered for sale the highest bidder The highest price paid for busi- ness lot was not over $2500 Today there about 5000 people in Anchorage and the business lots are renting for $500 month"
 When in less than two years lots that sold for $25O0 rent for $3600 year, there to be con- siderable of core left to the Alaskan apple, Sena tor Williams prophecy to the contrary notwith- standing.
 lowed private parties get the benefit of increased values created by public enterprise, settlers at An chorage are being forced to outside of the town limits Unless Congress gets busy and applies to the Territory measure like Bailey's ilfated proposal there will be trouble in Alaska. The railroad was not built to help land spectators. but that seems the expense of settlers who want to do something useful

LIBERTY BONDS AN
ENCOURAGEMENT TO SAVE

In encouraging the people of Amer
lea to save, it is believed that the
Liberty Loan bonds are going to per-
form an important function in our ma
tional life. The small. denomination
of some of the bonds renders it pos
sible for the ordinary wage Garner to
purchase one wit hthe savings of a
few months. and the banks of the
country have undertaken to provide
for the purchase of these bonds in
small weekly or monty payments.
By devoting, each week of each
month"; to the purchase of Liberty
Loan Bonds such little sums of ready
money as are often frittered away for
useless things one not only can ac-
quire property that ranks among the
very best securities in the history of
the world, but can at the same time
feel that patriotic duty has been
performed and a habit of saving ac-
quired.
The ultimate result of this war will
be victory for America. but what the
effects of the war will be upon Amer
lea and American people is unknown.
When such future confronts us pru-
dence demands that we provide for
contingencies. No one knows how
great help savings invested in a
Liberty Loan Bond may be few
years hence. And ones savings not
only will be secure but will be con-
stantly bringing in interest.
There are other possibilities they
might better be called probabilities
and one is that Liberty Loan Bonds
when peace comes and money now in
active industrial use will be seeking
quiet investment, may bring a prem.

In paying his political debts, Gov
ernor Cats probably tries to give
each man such. position or such
emoluments as his political services
have been worth. Such being the
case, it is easy to figure the estimate
the governor places on the usefulness

delegates to the Southern CONNER
cial Congress, when he adds an ex-
preston of regret that there are no

A WELCOME SURPRISE
A Package of Smokes to an American
Soldier at the Close of a
Days Fighting

Maybe you can imagine the feelings
of one of our American soldiers,
somewhere in France, when, at the
close of a trying day, with the thun-
der of heavy guns in his ears, with
the screech of shells over his head,
with mud under and over his feet,
with thoughts Of home and friends
passing through his mind, he is hand
ed package Of Smokes"
Maybe he hasn't had a smoke for
three days, except when some more
fortunate comrade has shared a
scanty supply with him. The quiet
ing, soothing effect of a pipe or a
cigarette has been denied him; and
that seems like very small thing to
deny man who is fighting your and
our battle for US. 1t seems a shame
that such man can't have every lit
tie thing he wants when he is accept
ing, an denduring with cheerful cour~
age, so many big and dangerous
things that he doesn't want. A good
smoke is one of the little things he
ought not to be denied.
That's why we are carrying on our
campaign for smokes for soldiers. The
Red Cross transmits these packages;
the French government admits them
duty-free; the postal authorities of
Great Britain and France receive and
transmit the one-cent postcards to
America and our own postoffice de-
livers them.
You may soon have the thrill of re-
ceiving one of these cards from the
trenches, signed by some man who
has received your little token of good
will and good cheer; and you can
have as many of them as you want to
have, and keep them coming; all that
you have to do is to subscribe 25
cents to the fund; and keep it up, say
once or twice a week.
If your name has not yet appeared
in the list of donors to the Stars
Tobacco Fund, hand it in and enjoy
the feeling of having done at least a
"little bit" toward a few smokes"
for the boys.

NEVADA STOCK FARM
SECURES TH0R0UGHBREDS

The Nevada Stock Farm is to be re-
cruited again this year with some of
the finest racing stock in England and
one notable purchase for the stable
already has been made according TO
information reaching George Wing
field from NJ. p. Guiliams who now is
across the ocean selecting the ami
mails
Mr. Wingfield received information
that Guilliams arrived in London on
May II. Guilliams purchased the first
lot of thoroughbreds for the Nevada
Stock Farm two years ago.
The first purchase to be made by
Guilliams on this trip is the four.year.
old stallion, Atheling, by Desmond out
of Wood Daisy, by Cylene.
"Mr. Guilliams will remain in Eng.
land for an indefinite period" said Mr..
Wingfield until he can acquire for the
stock farm two or three of the best
English brood mares in fowl with the
best English horses. While horses
are cheaper in England than they
have been for some time, on account
of the war, the owners are holding
onto them for breeding purposes.
