II is generally expected that Mason 5.
Stone. former commissioner OF education
and present Lieutenant governor, will be
a candidate for the Republican nominal
ton for governor next year, in which
case it is conceded that in the primaries
MIR. Stone will be strong favorite. No
man ia more widely known in Vermont
than he and this will count for much for
him. By no means is there unanimity
for Mr.. Stone however. There is an ac.
tive effort among the political element to
get someone TO run against him. One or
two parties have the matter under ad-
visement and as many or more have been
approached but have turned il down.
The goyernorship does not seem to be the
lodcstone that it once was. Campaigns
nowadays involve great labor and ex.
pense. even if carried on legitimately.
The direct primary has pretty eifectually
put the poor man out of the running.
Next to the possession of money and the
willingness to part with it, the most
valuable asset is wide acquaintanceship.

ALASKA'S RESOURCES
ARE SET FORTH in
SEATTLE BOOKLET

The extent, commerce and re-
sources of Alaska for the past year
and since 1867, when the territory
was purchased from Russia, are SET
forth in a four-page folder just issued
and ready for distribution by the
Alaska bureau, Seattle Chamber CT
Commerce. The new leaflet is re-
vision of the 1918 publication.
A map of Alaska, imposed upon
that of the United States, gives a
graphic picture of the extent OF the
Northern territory. AS set forth in the
pamphlet, Alaska has produced double
the value received, the commerce for
1918 alone exceeding $127,OOO,OO
Tables are included also which give
the value of Alaskan products-mln'
erals, fish, furs, skins and miscellan
eous-for the past two years, as well
as the total output since 1857. The
jast two pages of the pamphlet are de
voted to an enumeration of Alaska's
resources.

many KILLED
IN AVIATION
BY ACCIDENTS

FORT WORTH, Texas, May 6 (by
Associated Press).-One hundred and
six men were killed at the three big
government aviation fields here be-
tween November Is, 1917, and the re-
cent elose of aerial activities, accord
ing to official figures just made pub
lie.
In the same period the three fields
now being closed turned out 1,475 fin
ished aviators, most of whom were
sent to the WESTERN front. A thou
sand commissioned aviators were also
sent here from other schools to finish
their gunnery course at Taliaferro
field.
The statistics made public show that
during the training period the actual
flying hours at Carruthers field totaled
$4,000; at Barron field, 26,60S, and at
Taliaferro field, 32,48S.
The tail spin and nose dive were
responsible for large majority of
the accidents, according to officers.
In the entire training period not sin
gle American cadet was killed on the
first solo flight. This is attributed to
the thorough instruction in ground
work. Three British fiers were killed
on solo flights.
While the tail spin and nose dive
were the chief factors in the fatality
list, there were many other contribut-
ing causes.
Captain Vernon Castle, the Ameri-
can dance interpreter, who had faced
death numerous times over the Ger
man lines as British aviator, swerved
his machine sharply to avoid hitting
another aviator here. He lacked height
for the maneuver, crashed and was
killed.
The young son of General Peytyon c..
March, chief of staff, was killed at
the gunnery field while engaged in
combat practice at a height of 1000
feet. The wings of his machine be-
came entangled with those of his op-
ponents plane.
Captain Robert Isett of Providence,
post adjutant at Barron field, fell from
the greatest height, 5000 feet Two
men fell from their planes at great
heights because of failure to strap
themselves in.

INTERESTING
LETTER FROM
f. R. BECkMAN

Kikungshan, China, May 81. 1919.
Dear Editor and Readers Of the Jules
burg Grit Advocate.
As the first three numbers Of the
Grit-Advocate have just reached us
since We arrived here, feel that the
time has come for me to let you know
something about US, and some Of our
experiences and observations on the
way. We had fine voyage across
the Pacific Ocean this time. l have
never seen the sea 50 pacific as it
now is.
In Japan we had plenty Of time to
90 ashore at the three ports We stop
ped, as the steamer took several
days at each place to unload cargo
, and reload for other ports. While At
Yokohama We visited Tokyo and Chi
ba, an inland city about 20 miles from
Tokyo, where our mission has sta
tions. While at Cobe we spent . day
to visit Suma. a place not far from
Cobe. which has a great fame for its
beautiful scenery. The trees were in
bloom at this time. and the people
were celebrating the feast Of cher
rv blossoms, so there were quite bit
Of special decorations and large ga
therings Of people on this occasion.
At Nagasaki it was very amusing to
watch the procedure of loading coal
on the steamer. The ships machin-
ery was not used at all for this pur
pose, but men and women were posted
on ladders up the sides Of the steam
er, which were placed in . sloping po-
sition from a number Of flat coal
boats which surrounded the steam
er. The coal was conveyed in bas-
kets between the hands Of these men
and women. They were all thorough
ly trained for this work, and the
string of baskets filled with coal went
80 fast and were emptied into the
steamer 50 quickly that no machinery
could we'll be used to compete with
them.
l have heard from missionaries,
who are working in Japan that the
anti-American feelings are growing
and spreading very rapidly among the
Japanese in Japan, and in Corea they
are blaming the American missionar-
les for the unrest among the people.
Stories to this effect are published in
the newspapers in Japan, but the
proofs that these stories are untrue,
which are found and published in the
English papers in the far East, never

Exceptionally Efficient

The Postmaster General as.
serts that the mail service dur.
ing the war period has been
maintained upon an exceptional
efficient basis, and confidently
believes that every fair-minded,
unselfish, honest American,
JUDGING by his own experience
and considering the difficulties
confronting the postal establish.
ment, recognizes this fact.
So Mr.. Burleson, with an ad.
mirable pride in his work, with
a pathetic confidence in the fav.
orable judgment of his country
men upon that work. So remote
is officialdom from the real world
so cut off is Washington from
the currents of public opinion
The regular irregularities and
uncertainties of mail delivery,
the singularities of special div.
cry and the parcels post, have
been an annoyance to millions of
Americans. From this city to
the minutest hamlet there is dis.
satisfaction with the service
which Mr.. Bur!eson lauds with
such simple faith. One hates to
quench ardent illusions, but if
there could be referendum on
the mail service during the war
the Postmaster General might be
convinced that "fair-minded, un-
selfish, honest" Americans are
a minority. New York Times.

left to bear his name and perpet-
uate his virtues.
/ DR., Green was one OF the most
remarkable men that the writer
has ever known. His education
both academic and professional,
was unusually broad and thor
ough. This was largely due to
the possession of a most wonder
full memory, trained to the high
est degree of accuracy; and he
had that quality which was far
better and which the majority OF
men lack, the power of the
closest concentration and applica-
ton. 1t could be said of him in
truth that he never forgot any
thing. Rules learned at school
dates, names, facts were at his
command. There was hardly
a child for the past generation in
the homes in which he practiced
whose birthday he could not tell
offhand.
His activities were not alone
confined to the practice of his
profession to which he was de-
voted, but he took a large inter-
est in all public matters affecting
his community, his county and
the State. 1t can safely be said
of him that he has helped effect
lively to promote the political for
tunes of more men than any
other man of his time. His de-
light was to get behind and sup
port the aspirations of a friend.
And from the moment the con-
test started he was the embodi-
ment of sleepless energy. There
was no task to burdensome, no
obstacle to great, that he did not
seek to overcome and carry to
successful finish that which he
had undertaken.
He held many positions of
trust. He was superintendent
of Health for his town and
county for a long period and un-
til the day of his death. He was
a member of the State Senate in
1895 and a Director of the State
Prison during the administration
Of Governor Elias Carr.

was called he brought to the per.
