of fish furnish but handful compared with their former amounts
 "There is nothing that can take the place of the salmon This summer in many place, saw only thousands of fish where years ago millions used to swarm.
 Its all an old story. We have preached our tale for years and we cannot convince these men who make money enough in the big years to afford to lose in the lean ones that they are killing the goose and that the golden eggs will shortly cease to be"
 The remedy does not lie in our hands Alaska has no power over its fishing re- sources. Only the federal government can take the steps necessary for protection. Pro- tests were made against the establishment ot a cannery on the lower Yukon when it was first proposed. These should be renewed and the Washington authorities given an account of interior conditions resulting from the opcr- atiOns of the present season.

THE FORGOTTEN NORTH
(EXchange.

The Arctic dropped from the popular consciousness with the discovery of the North Pole It was taken for granted that nothing existed north of certain latitude save wide drltted stretches Ot snow, now glittering un~ der an unenthusiaStic sun, now driven ire sistlbly before bitter and whitening winds. The region stretched away i'll the imagination an unbroken, silent plain, colder than inter Istellar space, deadly to every form of life, Iuninhabited, uninhabitabe
 No such vision rises in the mind of NiI- Ihjalmur Stetansson or Storker Storkerson, his lieutenant, when they think of the area Centering about the pole and extending south to the outposts of civilization. It would b, little pleasure to walk into a landscape as un- changing as a linen-covered table top, traverse it, and come out on the other side They know their Arctic is variable, cunning, tempestu- ous, willy place, teeming with life, tingng with adventure It's spirit is untrlstWOrthy and alien; it's weapons are keen as drks and swift as light. It is filled with a great and terrible beauty, a beauty that warps the mind and lures and destroys. It is free past the dreams of men who live in streets and ride on trains, wild past the imagining of those who have known only the gentler climates south of the circle
 No doubt voyagers would seek the north for loveliness alone, and would sometimes give themselves up to the mercies of an ice floe to worship beauty in the wilderness, even were there no more material reason for the expe- dition. But science kindly supplies them with another. Every large berg and foe adrift beyond the haunts of men is a little continent in itself, inhabited by communities of animals Tor birds; every shard from a glacier end marks by its course some determinable cur rent of the sea- There are strange and mar vellous things to learn and set down in re- ports for some unemotional foundation But in the main the human race will probably al- ways think of those places as lifeess in which it cannot live, and will cling properly enough, to the culture in which it thrives with no more than an occasional envious glance at Venus or Mars.

SENATE COMMITTEE FANORS REP
 ARATION FOR PANAMA CANAL.
{ Iuneau Empire. ]

Ever since William l. Bryan, as sccre- tary of state, made the recommendation in 1914 to pay Colombia S25,OOO,OOO as d com strip that now houses the intcroCcanic canal the country has been given to understand that the proposition was mOnstrOus and d piece of black1naiI Admirers of the late Theo- dOre Roosevelt insisted that to accept 1t or any other agreement of like nature would be vot- ing stigma of piracy upon him and plotting the national shield. In his vigorous, stimu- lating style the former President defended his act as being not only practical, but cmincntIy patriotic. MT. Bryan reputation as d dpIO- mat was not enhanced by these utteranccs
 Now we are confronted with the unan- nous vote Ot the senate committee on foreign affairs of the United States senate to send the S25, 100000 to the government at BO9Ota. All that was said previously by members oI this body apparently has been abandoned. A> a salve to their wounded pride the memJl struck from the treaty the expressions of re- performance which would have reflected cred- 1t on a petty Chinese ruler seeking to save his face
 The action was meaningless to Ameri- cans. Paying the $25 100000 is a deed that explains itself most explicitly. It is of itself Colombian charge of conspiracy with the Panamanian leaders who launched the opera bOuffe revolution.

ROME, Sept. 26 (H) The Stefani Aga. semi-official Italian publica tion in d leading article today de clared that the reports that Presi dent Wilson had threatened an econ omic blockade of Italy unless D'An nunzio was ejected from Plume are entirely without foundation.

PASSING OF THE soURDoUGH

It is regrettable, but the sourdough is passing-the old-timer of the vim tage of '97, '98, '99 and 1900. For the most part they were good men all loyal, hard-working, fearless, with the true pioneer spirit. They gambled their fortunes, their health and their lives for the development of the coun- try and the homestake.
 Many of them fell by the Wayside early in the game, passed on, unable. to fight on longer, and were laid at rest tender1y by their friends. Others battled successfully the early hard ships and have devoted their lives to the upbuilding of Alaska.
 In the early days of the rush men came north ranging in age from 16 to 60 but the majority of them were be- tween 25 and 40. That was twenty years ago, so those who have lived on are now well advanced in age; that is, the greater part of them.
 Many of these old-timers, through hard work and care, have built up substantial business enterprises; have made money, and now, within the next few years, they will be retiring from active participation in the battle for business, or will, by the very nature of the existence of mankind, be called forth to render an account of their stewardship upon earth.
 It is the way of the world that the old must step aside: that the young must step up; and that leads to the question as to what the young men of Ketchikan and Alaska generally are doing to prepare themselves for the responsibilities which will soon be thrust upon them.
 To the men of business who are studying it, who are trying to learn every feature of it, will fall the re- SDOnSlD1IL16S, IuG ulSuCI lllNOL1So, VI possibly the business itself.
 In one of the largest banks oi America today there is young mar in charge of the loan department. Six years ago he was havinig difficulty finding a sufficient quantity of money to keep him alive. He was energetic however, and was picked out for ar important position. While in tha place he studied several of the de partments, and when the time came for selecting a man, was ready to ii in. He was given trial, made good and is now one of the highest-price( bank officials in America.
 Within the next five years there vii be many young men picked for pos1 tions of importance in Alaska. It vii be up to them now in lesser position to prepare for them.-Ketchika1 Chronicle.

VOICE OF ALASKA PRESS

According to unofficial reports, the navy bunkers and docks in Seward will probably be constructed next year, possibly preliminary work being done this fall and winter With coal com ing into Seward regularly, and the docks constructed, this city will be the important coal center on the Alaska coast.-Seward Gateway.
 Many persons in the city are com plaining over parcels being rlfied Tn the mails. Packages have left Seat tie which have been opened and part of their contents extracted. The mail robberies of last winter apparently are being repeated on a smaller scale. That these robberies are committed on the boats is certain. Steps should be taken to give mail matter better protection. Several thefts have been reported to the Miner by citizens dur ing the past week-Valdez Miner.

Il am not quite sure about your

head doubtfully. "Your heart action
is not what it should be. Do you use

The meek little man thought and

"Oh, yes, doctor, I-er-use an aw-

''How do you use it?" asked Doc.
"Why-hum-you see, I use it to

the wink. And the m. |. m. took the
