Mr.. HECKMAN'S
IMPRESSIONS
OF INTERIOR

J. r. Hickman, territorial senator
from the First division, resident of
the territory for thirty-three years,
and one of the most prominent bust
ness men of Southeastern Alaska, is
in the city with Mrs. Hickman, hav-
ing just returned from an extensive
trip to the Interior, which included
points on the Yukon and Tanana riv-
ers and extended as far as Nome.
Mr.. Hickman, whose home is in
Ketchikan, believes in seeing Amer
lea first" and having determined last
spring to spend the summer in travel,
he decided to see something of the
great territory of which he has been
a resident so long and in which all
his interests are located.
mo man. said Mr.. Hickman this
morning, "can know Alaska unless he
has seen the great Interior country"
Agricultural Possibilities
)
with what he had seen on his jour
ney, and was particularly interested
in the agricultural possibilities of the
Interior. He seems to have made a
particular study of this subject, and
spoke enthusiastically of the possibili-
ties for agriculture there in the future
when a market has been created, and
of the splendid work of the United
States experimental station He told
of having seen wheat fields which
were estimated to yield thirty bushels
to the acre, and extraordinary fields
of oats which would run seventy bush
els THE Tanana valley will be able
to raise plenty of agricultural prod
ucts for an extensive population when
a market is created" he said. The
gardens of the city Of Fairbanks were
also noted by the senator, and the
fact that the wartime urgings of the
government to raise gardens has been
complied with by the Fairbanks resi-
dents was evident on every hand. The
products of these gardens were equal
to those raised anywhere, he said.
Fishing in the Yukon
Senator Hickman has been for
many years connected with the sal
homecoming industry, and naturally
he was interested in the Yukon fish
cries. He spoke of seeing a catch
of $4,000 of the finest king salmon he
had ever seen. When questioned
about the agitation in the Interior to

forbid the operation of canneries on
the Yukon, he said that so far as the
present regulations were concerned,
which limit the pack to 10000 cases,
he could see no danger of depicting
the fish supply of that stream and its
tributaries However, he said, these
regulations applied only to fishing in
the river itself, and not to that carried
on in the shallow waters near the
mouth of the Yukon.
on the necessity for prOpagating sal
mon, and thinks that unless some
ing hatcheries for the humpbacks
especially great mistake will be
made. Already signs of depletion are
in evidence, he said, and it behooves
the territorial and federal authorities
to move in the matter.
AS to Politics
Senator Hickman was asked as to
the political situation, and particu-
larly as to his reported candidacy for
the position of Republican national
committeeman for the territory. He
said he realized that his journeyings
through the territory had been given
a political Interpretation in many
quarters, but that in reality the trip
had been taken, as stated, for pleasure
and information only. He had found
it particularly enjoyable to meet so
many friends at the various places
at which he had stopped, and that
both he and Mrs. Hickman had en-
joyed themselves immensely. But
politics had no connection with the
trip. He was pleased to note, how
ever, that throughout the territory
there was a disposition on the part
of the Republicans to form local or
CARNATIONS in preparation for next
years campaign, and he considered it
a hopeful indication of success for the
party. He was not a candidate, he
said, for political office, although he
had been urged to make the race for
national committeeman. The duties
connected with that position, how
ever, held no special attraction to
him, he said.
The senator left the impression that
although he was not seeking political
preferment, he was sufficiently inter
ested in the success of his party to
sacrifice personal inclination should
it be thought necessary to party sue
cess.
Senator and Mrs. Hickman will con-
tinue their travels as far as Seward,
and will then return to their home in
Ketchikan.

A. ID. S. Profits Larger
Earnings Cut by Keen Com
petition for Labor

Net profits Of the American Drug
gists Syndicate for 1918 amounted to
S464,8Os, according to the annual re-
port issued yesterday. The correspond
ing item in 1917 was S416,749. C. II.
Goddard, president of the company, in
statement to stockholders, said that
the net balance for the year was at
least $150.000 less than it would have
been but for the fact that every "per-
missible" item was charged against
earnings. He pointed out that an un-
favorable factor in 1918 was the com
petition for help the company was
forced into with the government.
Since January l." he added, 1--WE
have received approximately $1,000,-
600 from the sale Of treasury stock.not
share of which has netted the treas
ury less than par. This additional cap
ltal not only supplies the necessary
cash to cover all indebtedness of every
character, but leaves US with suf-
fclent cash surplus for all present and
anticipated requirements this year"
Mr.. Goddard said that actual sales
for January at the home office alone
averaged approximately $1,000 a day
greater than the corresponding month
last year In addition signed orders
were received from druggist members
aggregating $S85,000.
New-York tribune., 1919-02-12

When Secretary Cortelyou's sug-
gestion for an international gold
certificate was made, only a decade
ago, it was ridiculed. London called
it a Financial DREAM" more suit
able for the millennium than for the
present day. at was pointed out by
critics here that the gold itself was
the sole representative of the real
value transferred, and that the GER
tlticate Of gold deposited was valu-
able as a substitute only so long as
absolute trust in the instant re-
deemability of the certificate was
universal. The gold certificates
which our own government issued
against gold metal stored in Wash
ington were as good as gold only
because they could be used to get
gold on moments notice. Under
the international gold certificate
plan instantaneous redemption
would be impossible. But most
crushing was the question of what
country could be trusted to hold
gold which did not belong to it, and
whether it would not "commandeer"
the gold earmarked for any nation
with which it went to war. In short.
i was argued that you could not
have an international gold fund
until you had complete international
faith, and you could not have COM
rlete international faith until YOU
had complete international honesty
and the abolition Of war That ar
gument has lost it's one time force.
We are to-day lending Europe
100000, 1000. If we can trust
foreign nations enough to lend
them that, is it so inconceivable
that we can trust them with the
two or three hundred million dol
lars in gold needed to establish a
fuud?
