Senator Smith, in introducing the
railroad bill to the Senate, had con-
cluded with an eloquent paragraph
describing the greatest possible sac
rifce-the heroic sacrifice of prin-
ciple for success. During Senator
La Follette's absence, Senator Kel-
logg concluded with a most eloquent
and earnest appeal for American
principle-the principles of the Con-
stitution, the Bill of Rights, Of Amer
lean institutions. But in his final
sentence he said: always remem-
bering. however, that the lives and
fortunes of the people are pledged
for the liberty and welfare of the
nation" No one has yet explained
what the nation" is apart from the
people" 1t merely appears that
the people" may be sacrificed at
the will of somebody for almost any,
thing. Perhaps "the people" differ
from the "nation" in Lot holding
office.

what a principle" is as 1t differs
from a theory" or an "ideal" or an
eloquent sentence. If it is anything
at all, it goes on operating without
change against those who imagine
that they are making heroic sacrifice
suspending it. We might make \
heroic sacrifice by moving to strike
out the enacting clause of the Deca-
logue. But if there is real prin-
ciple in the Decalogue or in the in
clination Of the earth's axis in its

In the House yesterday after the
ALLEN Stacker bill" had been dis
cussed and postponed, the bill to
erect a monument in Washington
in honor of President Buchanan
was holly debated. The Republi-
cans were appealed to in the name
of patriotism to stand with the
Democrats in making Europe safe
for democracy by refusing to "tear
open the bleeding wounds" Of civil
war. Mr.. Graham, of Pennsyl-
vania compared Buchanan'S love for
the Union, with slavery or with
out it." to that Of Lincoln Most
Republicans refused their "medi-
cine" They talked as If they were
still actually BLACK Republicans"
fighting Buchanan for conStitu-
tional amendments against coInpul-
sorry labor and involuntary servi-
tude. Wood OF Indiana compared
Buchanan and Benedict Arnold.

Two bills for raising the price of
wheat were introduced in the SEN
ate yesterday. One by Senator Nc
Cumber Republican, Of North Da-
kota proposes to increase the price
from 81 to $2.75 a bushel. The
other, by Senator Gore (Democrat)
Of Oklahoma, with an increase from
81 to $3.50, proposes the establish
ment Of revolving fund" from
the proceeds Of Government dealing
IN wheat, covering exports and also
sales to domestic consumers. Both
would rob millions of badly fed
workers for the chance of controll-
ing the Electoral College.
"The Solid South" has a chance
of winning by a scratch" in the
struggle for the control Of the fu-
ture of the United States, and this
chance, desperate at best, depends
on the electoral votes Of grain

California. The great interests"

hand" in the Northeast, II they pre-
fer to control the Union through
the Republican party rather than

Inanded by the Western wheat

In this desperate game the appeal
is constantly made to patriotism to
suffer the worst which the gamblers
Of one side or the other can infict.

nopoly.

near propectors crossed the Chilkoot Pass about 1880 and began mining in the interior of Alaska six years later after finding gold in the Yukon-Tana- na region. Since then this region has produced gold to the value of about s100, ,000, ,000. A number of reports have been issued by the United States Geological Survey, Department of the Interior, bearing upon this area and others adjacent in the Yukon basin, and among the reports still available is Bulletin 53S, on the portion of the region known as the Circle quad rangle. This quadrangle owes it's chief present importance to the placer mines, which, though worked in a small way, have produced gold to the value of over $6.500,000

AUSTRIAN SEWERS PLEDGE EFFORTS
 THE NATION

The Seattle Post-Intelligencer of Jan uary 20. contains the following of in terest to fishermen.
 What is said to have been the larg- est gathering of purse seine fishermen in the Northwest was held at the Lab or Temple in Seattle yesterday after noon to organize the American Purse Seine Fishermen's League.
 Representative from every fishing headquarters on Puget Sound attend | ing the meeting. Frank Berry of Ia coma was elected president; Peter Franette, Seattle, vice president; Geo. Radonich, Tacoma, secretary, and Rob- ert Jurich, Seattle, treasurer. With the officers the members of the execu- tive board are Peter Povich and Geo. Refonich, Seattle; Anton Bozanach, Everett; Leo Markovich, Gig Harbor.
 One of the purposes of the organiza- tion is to make arrangements to take advantage of certain conditions by which the government will permit 1000 Austrian fishermen to continue in the business on Puget Sound and in Alaskan waters. Cooperating with the cannery operators, the employing fishermen will endeavor to satisfy the government of the loyalty of the men and those approved by the government tn Eel, in nf the fact that they could literally be classed as aliens The preamble of the constitution unanimously adopted today pledges loyalty of the fisher men to the United States government and to the conservation of food, es- pecially fish.
 Dow Addresses Men.
 Among those who addressed the meeting were Samuel T. Piles, J. P. Todd, Alexander Smith and Wilbur c. Dow, of the marine department of Frank F. Dow X Co. low attended as the spokesman of the cannery op- orators, who desire that the Austrian purse SeinerS be permitted to continue in business under conditions approved by the government. The purse seine industry is said to have been built up almost entirely by the Austrians, and to prohibit them from fishing, it is said, would seriously cripple an in dustry which is a big factor in con tributing to the food supply.
 One of the results of the meeting will be a night school in those things that will fit them for American citizen ship.
 "The gathering was intensely in ear nest in the pledge to support this gov ernment," said Frank P. Dow. 'I was told that it was the largest gathering of the purse seiners ever held in the Northwest"
