WHO WILL BE THE GOAT?

Alaskana generally are specuat
 ing on who wilt be the goat in flask; railroad construction investigation?
 History of congressional investiga tlonS usually brings forth such an ami. maL The resignation of Herbert Mcy. CTS, the young department steno-
 graphcr, who, under the nigh sounding title oI "aSSistanct secretary of the in. terior department investigated the railroad two years ago, may be it. His resignation within week after thl Wickersham letter was made public would seem Co indicate he was ready for the slaughter.
 From one end of the territory tc the other for months the Alaska rail- road has been joke. Men like Rep Noon, who are bathed in the light of democracy, have been shouting it from the houSctops. Engineers of note tel alter dinner stories of mismanage- m,nt or it's affairs. With an appropri- alton of thirty million dollars. of which over twenty-Six million has oeea expended, Alaska still waits ra connection even from tide water t2 Anchorage. Some one is to blame for tni- gOlnero1 hl,rJo,,
 Evidently Delegate WickerSham has decided to reach the goat by process of elimination. Like the old game of tag he tagged Lane, the head of the department, as "It". In turn it looks like MT. Lane has tagged Meyers. Now 1t IS up to Meyers to tag someone down the line. By the time the con- gresional committee gets this game of tag going good there is every reason to believe it will be a merry time. Certainly somebody "spit in the soap for the Lane administration when hay ing "writ they passed on."
 Generally the people of Alaska feel relieved that the matter is going to be aired. It was a sore that had to be opened that it might be properly treated. Now We wonder if someone won't please introduce a resolution in the Senate defending Lanes adminiS- tration of Alaska railroad construc- ton. It would be such pleasing task for our democratic friends to smother it to death.

Hayden, assistant professor of railroad engineering at the University of Washington, in which the professor says Wicker Sham'S charges of incompetency anI waste in the construction of the goy- ernment railroad in Alaska have no foundation, in fact, Hayden says he worked on the Alaska railroad nearly four years and knows.
 Prof. Hayden says that disturbed labor conditions and the advance n the price Of steel prices made great CT outlay necessary than was estima,- ed.
 "Wickcrsham made the broai sweeping condemnation of the entire project" says Prof. Hayden, "and based his statements on few definite statements. l believe politics did nos concern the Alaskan Engineering Comm. sion."

JEWELRY-Labor Shortage
Hits Wnfchn1nkers

Shortage Of skilled labor continues
to prevent manufacturers of watches
from bringing their production to q
point where the retail trade can get
all the stocks it wants. Retailers are
pressing their demands for all grades
and assortments, with the popular
priced styles meeting fifth considerable
favor Orders for the Christmas holi-
days are being received in large vol
ume, and retailers assert that all in
dicat Ons point to record breaking
holiday season. This unprecedented
business, they say, reflects the unusual
prosperity of the entire country.
jewelers. in the Southern states have
given the manufacturers the greatest
surprise of the year by ordering sew
cral million dollars worth of .ime
pieces for the Christmas holidays. For
merly orders coming from that section
of the country were very small, and
time to them. Manufacturers attribute
prices received for commodities grown
in the Southern part of the country.
In addition to the heavy domestic
orders, watchmakers are receiving nu-
merous inquiries from South American
countries. A large part of these in
quries call for the immediate delivery
Of watches. Manufacturers, however,
refuse to accept orders with any def
mite date attached. Their factories,
they say, are now fully engaged in do
mcstic orders that have been on their
books for some time, and consequently
it will be out of the question for them
to handle any goods for export until
the early part of 1920.
