Snakes Reputation Undeserved.

The beginning of all religious cere
monial is magic. Thus Aaron with his
rod. He turns it into a snake.
Most surprising, but not wholly
novel. "Old stuff !" say the priests OF
Pharaoh. watch u.s." They, in like
manner, transform sticks into serpents
But Aaron's snake gobbles up the
snakes of Pharaoh's clergy, and that
settles the argument.
The snake is nearly, if not quite, the
least intelligent of animals. To speak
of the "wisdom of the serpent" is q
Joke. Yet, through all the ages this
stupid and almost mindless reptile has
been credited with a sagacity ap-
preaching the supernatural.

WICK CHARGES BIG MONOPOLY
 IN SHIPPING

SEATTLE, March 27 (by Associated Press) The Post-Intelligencer today publishes the second portion of James Wickersham's sensational letter to Secretary of the Interior Lane. To- days installment deals with that DOT tion in which the charge is made that the Yukon and Panama river steam boat lines combined against the gov ernment railroad within month after congress approved the act authorizing the construction of the railroad, and that the combination created a mo- nopoly which resulted in policy of extortion in transportation rates.
 The article also gives Wickersham' s arraignment of the administration for "profiteering" against shippers, and his statement that the monopoly is a crime against the development of Alaska. The figures by which Wick ersham attempts to prove that the people of Interior Alaska are mulcted of SIP per ton in excess freight rates also are given.
