KILLING OFF THE EAGLES.

The Alaskan legislature voted a
bounty of 80 cents on each eagles
head, and in period of II months
500 of these royal birds were slaugh-
tered. They were charged with the
crime of eating salmon, wild ducks
and geese; but no biological survey
was made TO determine the facts.
This legislature is not composed of
Indians and Eskimos, as some may
imagine, but of white men from the
United States. Is this not rather shah
by treatment, to say the least, of a
bird which is our national emblem
Whose image appears on our seals,
coins and flags? Or is he merely
paying the penalty of royalty?
In any event. he seems likely soon
to join the ranks of the bison, the
passenger pigeon, the paroquet. the
white heron and other birds and ant
mails of America now extinct or verg-
ing on extinction through the ignor-
ance of the cupidity of man.

PRESIDENTIAL STYLES.

p. L. in the New Republic.
All observers would agree | sup
pose, if they were asked to go over the
list of presidents since Lincoln, and
to pick out the three who had put into
action as president the strongest wills,
in choosing Cleveland, Roosevelt and
Wilson. Yet you cannot say that the
style of any of the three is a strong
mans style. None is rich in rugged
maXims hewn from life" President
Roosevelt wrote and spoke like a
strong man now and again, in spots.
but in the mass his style is too wordy,
too proliX, too desperately emphatic
to be strong. He found expression as
much too easy as President Cleveland
found it impossible. Something said
of another writer by Charles whitley
is true of President Roosevelt-he sell
dom used a sentence if a page
would do as WE'LL President Wilson
is a conscious artist in words-which
of course President Roosevelt and
President Cleveland were not--but
strength is not one of the marks at
which his art aims. His style is too
gracefully conscious of his audience
for strength, too sunnily persuasive,
too nicely fabricated, too smooth.

MARK TWAIN's INVESTMENTS $


Mark Twain, successful as an au-
thor, lecturer and humorist, had little
genius for business and never hesita-
ted to ridiCule himself in that capac-
ity. He had a mania for risky invest
ments and ventures of all sorts, which
always turned out to be failures, and
when a really good thing came along
he was apt to spurn it with contempt.
Referring in his diary to the offer of
some telephone stock, he wrote:
II decline. | don't want anything
more to do with wildcat speculation.
Then Bell offered the stock to me at
25. | said | didn't want it at any
price. He became eager; insisted
that I take $500 worth. He said he
would sell me as much as | wanted
for $500; offered to let me gather it
UP in my hands and measure it in a
plug hat; said | could have whole
hatful for $500. But I was the burnt
child, and l resisted all these tempta-
tions--ressted them easily, and next
day went off and lent $1,000 on an un-
Endorsed note to a friend who went
bankrupt three days later"
1t was only few months later that
Bell telephone was installed in his
own home!

NEBRASKA state journal.
Deprived of the use OF the trolley
by the street car earthquake. the town
of Weymouth. in Massachusetts, will
soon make a trial of the tracklest
trolley. Two wires will be suspend
ed over the road and passenger cars
equipped with ordinary pneumatic
tires will run on the pavement. The
advantage of this system over the
ordinary street car is thatthe capital
expended in tracks will be saved. Cars
may pass each other at any place.
Operating costs will be so moderate
that it is hoped that a fair service
may be given with profit under the
oldtime schedules. Just as the auto
mobile highways promise to supplant
the interurban in the not far distant
future, the trackless trolley may
solve the transportation problem for
many cities and towns. 1t would not
be possible to make these lines paw If
roads we're built especially for their
accommodation, but the public must
have the roads anyway, and the addi-
tional load of a few passenger auto
mobiles operated electrically would
not add appreciably to the cost of
maintenance.

MINES BRING RAILROADS

The silver mines of Grant county
caused the building of the railway
from Deming to Silver City. Lines
radating to Santa Rita, Whitewater
and Tyrone, in Grant county are cop
per roads, some of them built en-
tirely by mining companies
The mines of Sierra county were
responsible for railway extension to
Lake Valley Metal mines drew rail-
way to Magdalena.
A hundred mile stretch of railroad
was financed and built in Otero and
Lincoln counties. from f. Paso, solely
to tap the White Oaks coal fields, but
eventually reached several hundred
miles northward to other coal lands,
and also drew to it at Tucumcari an
eastern trunkline that runs long
distance eastward through New
Mexico.
From Lordsburg is a line extending
to the copper camp of Clifton in one
direction and to Hachita, on the south,
built by a Clifton copper mine com
pany. From Deming and from the
Texas line near Ell Paso lines run
across Luna county and after their
consolidation, one spans Grant county
from east to west This mileage was
created by copper owners at Bisbee,
Arizona, to develop copper fields, but
New Mexico is the beneficiary
The coal of Lincoln county attract
ed a railway to Captain, and the Daw-
son line also was built to reach coal

BURIESON BOSSES.

In PENNSYLVANIA a state court has
declared that President Wilson and
Postmaster General Burleson had no
right whatever to fix telephone rates
not approved by the state, through its
corporation commission. The tele-
phone company was enjoined from
collecting increased rates. 1t was not
denied that the federal government
had a right to operate the lines during
war. under an act of congress. The
next week down in Alabama a state
court held that it had no authority,
in similar case. What has become
of the tenet of the southern states,
for which they went to war, the doc
trine of State Rights? Centralized
government adopted for war purposes
is being intensified day by day through
administration orders.
A republican state court upholds
the power of state laws and authority.
A democrat state stands from under
and allows a government department
to usurp the local authority to raise
rates on a public utility of the state.
1t is not strange that some demo-
Gratis of the old regime are amazed
and have voiced protest at the new
order of things, as did ex-senator
Bailey in his late speech The Texas
leader of old deprecated the trend to
interfere with rights in this country;
also saying the men IN control of his
individual rights of all of the people
of America, and is burdening. them
with taxes and unnecessary restric-
tons.

AMERICAN CHEMISTRY WINS.

1
Some two years since a book APP
peared in America by one Karl Arm
gard Graves, ostensibly a discarded
German spy The book purported to
be an expose of the German spy sys-
tenn, but, in effect, it was a tribute to
the mightiness of William Hohen-
zollern.
In cataloging the elements of this
| mightiness Graves stated that the
Germans were using in their Zeppe-
Inns a new, nonnflammable gas This,
Of course. was a lie.
However, it is true that the inflam-
inability of hydrogen gas was the
fundamental weakness of the Zeppe-
lin, and could a noninflammable CTS
have been produced in sufficient
quantity the Zeppelin would not only
have been inVulnerable to explosive
bullets but profound structural
changes could have been made. There
can be no doubt therefore, that Ger
man chemists were striving might and
main to produce such gas.
They failed. But American chem
lists, under the supervision of the
navy department, have turned the
trick. Helium is the name of the gas.
1t is not new gas, of course. But
some idea of the magnitude of the
achievement may be gained from a
consideration of the fact that, prior
to the war, in the opinion of chemists,
not over 100 cubic feet of this gas
had been produced in the laboratories
of the world, and that only at cost
of about $1,750 per cubic foot. 1t can
now be produced in commercial or
balloon quantities at a cost of 10
cents per cubic foot.
The discovery will doubtless have
a momentous effect on the future of
aeronautics. The proponents of the
airship as against the airplane for
commercial purposes are iubilant and
predict that the air travel of the fu-
ture will go to the balloon rather than
the Dlane,

HE DRAMATIzED THE NICKLE.

The record of Frank w. Wool
worth's achievements is not merely
the story of Yankee business enter
prise or American opportunity. 1t Is
the story of ambition. courage and
persistent effort triumphant over pow
erty, environment and poor luck. At
81, when most youths with a genius
for business are coming out of college
or getting in in their trade, Wool
worth was starting, in the business he
liked, as an errand boy. AS a clerk,
a little later, he was failure. The
milestones in the business life of
other clerks of his day probably were
rises of salary. His were reductions
With all his work, by the time he was
26, he had saved only $50.
He entered business for himself
with timidity and scarcely any money.
The idea upon which he based his
hopes for a livelihood-We may be
sure that the great tower of Broad
way was not then in his dreams-was
another mans idea. Even then. with
air his bitter experiences. industry,
carefulness and faith. it took him
eight long years before the woods
were behind him and he could whistle.
He was no young Napoleon of finance,
no faVorite of fortune. If he drama
tizcd the nickel and the dime. it was
because he knew, from intimacy with
the scrimping life of the poorly paid
clerk of the '70s. how much nickels
and dimes meant to most people. lie
believed that a fortune lay, not in
showing how little could be sold for
much, but how much could be sold
for little He lived to see his name

He built his own monument. He
made it impossible for any stranger
to enter New York without hearing
the name of Woolworth. The immi-
grant knows first the Liberty statue
and then learns the name of the
tower that lords it over the defiant
skyline of the city, 1t is the shaft Of
lachieved ambition. risen above the
