ORDINATION NEEDED.

Recently Franklin K. Lane secretary of the interior, writing for the Ma tional Geographical magazine con- corning the work of his department had the following to say regarding the spirit of national development:
 An intense nationalism has been the marking note of the past year. Each American has realized with keener consciousness the meaning of this land to h1m, and has sought for a larger view of it's many aspects, and if possible, to gain a glimpse of it's future. To each has come his dream. We now that there h more to nation al feeling than pride in the possession of land that is rare and valuable or the splendid memory of history of struggle for those things of a spirit est sense of nationality comes with a sense of purpose-a sense of common
 
 yet ours in the produst sense, and cannot be until we are doing all that can be done to give to all it's people and to the world the full expression of it's highest intelligence applied alike to its resources and to the life of the people"
 Alaska Is, from a point of settle ment, new land, one of the youngest. Handicaps to its being thickly habi- tated have arisen from more sources tha one. One of the first of these is, of course, an exaggerated conception of the rigors of the climate; another the absence of adequate means of transportation and communication. During the last few years a systema- tic campaign carried on simultan- eously by all the towns of the terri tory has been greatly beneficial in ex- ploding the Hand of eternal snows and mountains of ice" myth, and peo- pie are beginning to realize that we have up here things besides placer mines. The railroad being built by the government will cut the distance from here to the coast from days to hours and eventually put the north

A NEW ALASKA.

Hidden away in the more intensely interesting news disaptches telling of the results of the election there was a brief story from Alaska that is strilIingly significant of what may be expected in that country.
 Brif1y, the story was to the effect that several hundred homesteaders have arrived and settled in the sec- ton of country through which the United States government is building its railroad; that these settlers are prospering, and that indications favor rapid increase of this class of new corners.
 Think of that? Homesteaders go- ing to Alaska instead of gold hunt CTS. It opens an entirely new con- ception of that country. It means that instead of stripping an unwill- ing land of its sole wealth and then aband doning it. men are finding that tIitlc d oOhtiuuouo WtdIln III l1t agricultural possibilities of the coun- try, and are going there to cultivate it and make it continuously richer and more prosperous. It gives a mo- ton of a new Alaska of vastly differ ent style from that of former days.
 Perhaps, too, there is another sig nificance In this movement Perhaps it is an indication that men are not today as insanely anxious for sudden wealth as they were in '49 and Yukon days, but are better satisfied to be industrious and prosperous with cer- tainty, without taking the risks and undergoing the hardships of the usually disappointed gold hunter Per- haps.
 Alaska has yielded up many mill ions in gold, now 1t may begin to yield even more millions in even more valuable products.-Duluth Her aid.

ernmost town within week end visit ing touch of the states. Thus the drawback of slow communication will be done away with.
 In the history of the development of any country there are. roughly speak Ing, four stages. First comes the pioneer who hves off the country's obvious supplies, killing the game for his food and trapping the fur bearing animals for his clothing. Next we become producers of raw materials, grains, minerals, lumber. etc. Follow ing this comes the manufacturing stage, in which only the coarses things are touched. This eventually expands into wider markets and more varied industries, accompanied by more economical methods of produc- ton and exchange.
 For a large part of Alaska the first SldSe ldS pstSSSu, ai1iouSh Soihc Si the territory has not quite emerged from it yet. But for the remainder of the country the second phase has just been entered. Large tracts Of mineralized ground are untouched, and the ring of axes in vast stretches of forest has never been heard The agriculture of the coutnry is still in its infancy.
 We are just now standing at the threshold of our period of greatest op- portunity. We should take advant ge of the lessons taught in the develop- ment of other lands and profit by them as we endeavor to build up '.gr own land. In iris land of the last frontier, larger than osme of the first class nations of tie world. are found- ations for may varied industries, and homes for :nil'iCns really for ocau- pancy with tic expeditu-e of almos no money, nnd very little real labor. The time is coming when all these will be taken up, and it rests a great deal with us, who are already here, as to how rapidly they are occupied.
 There is at present a crying need for a coordination of purpose and ef- fort, which, successfully applied, will surely revolutionize the entire life of the territory. Start in the schools and identify them with the work that must be done in the different indus tries. he schools as mere scholastic institutions of learning have outlived their usefulness and must be carried out on boarder lines if they are to play their part in the future of the land.
 Towns must lay aside sectional diff ferences, outlying sections get in clos CT touch with the towns No longer will individual effort serve our aims or achieve our ends. The will of the Individual must be fused into the will of the mass, and a unity of pur- pose take the place of the present haphazard. hit -or- miss system that prevails. All of us may not live to see this accomplished, but we can help start the work so that it will be easy of continuance. and in so doing we will have done our bit" for this is the surest and quickest way to the Ideal home spot of the world.

CAMP TAYLOR, LOUISVILLE,
KY. oct. 2O.-The first troops which
came 20 camp from Indiana were
told by local boards 70 bring only a
few toilet necessities.
The men who come in the next
increment should bring more than
a few necessities. They should bring
heavy underwear. a heavy sleeveless
sweater. heavy socks. enough so that
they can change frequently. This
is the advice Of a drafted man. The
cold nights and rain has empha
sized the need of this sort Of cloth
ing.
The general health Of the camp is
excellent. The men are being care
fully taken care of. There is some
sickness, pneumonia, heavy colds
measles and similar diseases. II is
probable that there is less sickness
here than there would be among
the 10000 men in civil life. Blu; the
change from warm homes 70 camp
life is a big one, and men coming
to camp are advised 20 prepare
themselves in every way TO keep
their health.

les from politicians in all three

The letters on the subject were Of
three classes. One merely asked for
information. Another group express
ed desire that the men be allow
ed TO return. intimating they might
save the day" while the third
group was from those who were
anxious that the men not be allow
ed 10 return. Several writer's as
serted that the result of local cleo
tions hinged on whether or not SOL
diers returned TO vote.
No Burroughs.
Col. Laurence Halstead. division
chief OF staff. said there was not the
remotest chance Of the men being
granted Burroughs TO return to their
homes 10 vote unless the war de
partment issued special orders to
that effect
Officers believe that few days
absence from the camp would mean
setback of weeks in training and
a long delay in getting the men
ready for the front.
In Louisville 700 men at Camp
Taylor under normal conditions
would have voted. If all, or nearly
all were of one political party il
can be seen what effect it would
have on a close election.
From indianapolis there will be
about 1000 voters at the camp on
the date of the election, Nov. 6.
Other cities in Indiana and the
other two states where there will
be municipal elections have sent
men in proportion 10 their popula-
tions. so the effect throughout will
be about the same.

SAVE FOOD FOR
ALLIES BARNARD
State Food Administrator Ap-
peaIS to HooSierS to Aid
in KaiSer'S Defeat.

INDIANAPOLIS. Ind, oct. 20
The stern. definite figures show more
eloquently than anything else our
duty TO England. France and Italy
this winter, according TO II. +. Barn
ard. state food administrator.
The situation was today summed
up by Mr.. Barnard. Unless we do
our part toward conserving food,
these European countries face the
blacklist winter they have ever faced
our allies.
England is but one-fifth self
supporting. France one-half and
Italy perhaps two-thirds,' said Mr..
Barnard. "Ali the deficit must be
shipped in spite Of the submarines.
Without impairing our national Wig
or. We must save the food TO make
up this deficit. We are raising an
army 10 take it's place at the front,
and we at home must make sacri-
fees to the end that they shall not
want"
Have Surplus.
Mr. Barnard states that. on past
averag es, the United States and
Canada will have a surplus of 30O,-
100000 bushels Of wheat. Our al
lies need just twice that much.
Where are they going TO get Il? BY
our own saving.
The United States and Canadian
crops will be about one billion bush
els. Ordinarily, we would consume
700. 100000 bushels. We must re-
duce our own consumption Of wheat
nearly One-half.
"Our Immediate duty is to save
and send overseas not less than &c.,
600 bushels OF wheat and it should
be made 100000 bushels Of wheat to
allow for submarine sinkings and
other loss Even then our allies
will have to use more economy than
ourselves. We can do it, if each OF
us should eat three and one-hali
slices of bread for every i've slices
we have been accustomed 10. If we
do that the victorious conclusion OF
the war and the averting of thou
sands of deaths by starvation viii
| be our reward"

Womsn Teachers Have Good Reason
For Drsading Tuberculosis.
That teachers are especially prone to
tuberculosis IL the statement made By
the bureau Of educational hygiene Of
the city Of New York. This department
says that this disease Is 20 per cent
more prevalent among teachers than
among others of corresponding sex and
age and that about half of all deaths
among women teachers b caused By
tuberculosis. and this in spite Of the
fact that teachers belong to better
hygienic grade than the general aver
age.
Strenuous, nerve taxing work that
causes physical exhaustion and nerve
breakdown Is given as the main cause.
Terman states that -four hours Of &C.
tual teaching represent about eight
hours OF ordinary Office work. What
is probably the second cause Is lack
Of sufficient rest and regular exercise
IN the open mir.
Speaking along this line, the state
