How Business Grows,

Many merchants complain about
poor business, and then they never
set aside a dollar in the effort to get
more business. In this they act
against every recognized principle of
success.
All the big enterprises set aside a
large sum for their sales and make ad-
vertising departments. 1t is the work
of these departments to make new
friends. 1t is recognized that firm s
regular customers are constantly drop
ping out, due to death, removal, compe-
tition rivals. etc. Unless constant
effort is made to attract new friends,
ones business is likely to. fall off in
stead of increase.
No retail business can grow unless
it acts on this principle. New friends
and patrons must constantly be secur-
ed. They are not likely to come hap
hazard. They go to the people who
solicit them. II constant mail order
houses and the outside cities solicit
them by advertisement, while the home
merchant doesn't, they will go to the
place that seeks their trade as that
place seems to them the most wide
awake and enterprising.

This newspaper is in receipt of a
letter from Mr.. B. A. Samuelson, who
resides near Kiro1, in which he says
that his thirteenth annual sale of
pure bred Duroa Jersey sows and
gifts, held On Tuesday, February Goth,
was a great success and brought bid.
ders and buyers from different Sec
tions. of Iowa, Minnesota, South Da-
kota and Nebraska. When we say
that the 70 head sold averaged S71.OO
a head it is plain to be seen that Mr..
Samuelson's sale was success and
that he had the kind of stock breed
ers the farmers demand. The sale
totaled almost $4,000. Four sows
went to MINES ota, two to South Da-
kota, six to Nebraska and twenty-nine
to different parts of Iowa, and the
balance to Sac, Ida and Crawford
county.
Mr.. Samuelson is one of Crawford
county's substantial farmers, who
early realized the benefit to be de-
rived from rasing a pure strain of
hogs. He believed that the Duroc
Jersey strain would prove to be the
best money maker for farmers of the
corn belt to start his herd, which from
year to year has been improved until
now it is recognized to be one Of the
best in the west
In his letter Mr. Samuelson thanked
the Review for the part it had in MAX
ing the sale success. Mr. Samuel
son used space in this paper in two
issues.

The sub!imity Of Nature and Solitude.

he aSSlduOuS lover crosses the world
For many and many mile
rAnd reaches a narrow strip of wood
Where the dainty Dryads smile;
A beautiflil valley stretches below
Kissed by the asphodel,
And the zephyrs OF summer tenderly
blow,
To Oblivion's desolute dell.
Ee pictures existence in celibacy,
And turns toward the far-reaching
plain,
To view his treasured visions and
prospects dead.
And lost, perished in vain.
Bless you," he said, 20 solitude,
| shall not henceforth repine,
But shall muse contented within thy
rude
Wide encampment and hallowed
shrine"
81 shall place my trust in thee, 0
Garth
And call thee kith and kin;
shall battle in the waters of the
clear lagoon,
And drink Of the fairy gin.
l shall build me hamlet within thy
lanes
Somewhere near the Golden Gates,
And abide by the ambrosial fragrance
Until the storm of life abates.'
The hermit is sleeping in the land he
loved
And the flowers guard his sacred
shrine,
The supernatural Dryads dirge is
heard
Mid the beautiful lay of the shelter
ing pine.
The assiduous lover lists and dreams;
His trust was placed so we'll,
That he will ever be reversed and
loved,
And blessed by the asphodel.

No Insurance Companies Between the Injured Miners and the
 Operators.
NO MORE INSURANCE
Policies of Big Companies Were Cancelled Last Year-Were Not
 Renewed.

The statement was made at the is considering Senator Aldrich's con tract physicians bill that the mining companies on Gastineau Channel have insurance policies which make it necessary for injured workmen to make settlement through the repre- sentatives of the insuring company The Empire is informed that this statement is not correct. The Tread we'll companies and the Alaska Jul neau had such policy with the Maryland Casualty company, but it was cancelled last year, and no in surance has been taken out by either of these companies with that or any other insurance company. These companies now settle directly with those injured and pay them from their own funds.
 The Empire is also assured that the Alaska Gastineau company set ties directly with the workingmen for any injuries sustained by them
 
 No agent or representative of any in surance company stands between the company and any settlement with an injured employee.
 The settlements for disputed claims between the companies and an in iured workingman are passed upon by a board consisting of the com pany's labor agent. the company physician and two men from the un derground workings of the mines with H. l.. Faulkner. of the com pany's attorneys, acting in an advis ory capacity In these cases Mir Faulkner represents the companies and not the insurance companies, as has been stated.
 Mr. Faulkner at one time repre- sented the Maryland Casualty Com pany in Alaska. but that company has closed its Alaska business, and is not doing any in the Territory.
