BIG PACKER
As War Time Aid.

"A new idea of the great part play
ed by America in feeding the allied
forces in Europe is given in the 1919
Year Book Of Swift and Company,
which has just been issued
In 1918 these products shipped
abroad totaled 0,359,769 pounds
more than three times the amount
shipped in 1914, the first year of the
war. The pork product shipments
totaled 1881 ,454.529 pounds as
against 921,913,O29 in 191l-an in
crease Of SO per cent
During the year ending November
/, 1918, Swift and Company alone
shipped 760.0OO,00O pounds Of meat
and meat products to the American
army and navy at home and abroad
and to the allied nations for their
armies and civilian populations. The
Year Book says: This amounts to
about $4,000 carloads of meat, which
would make a single train 200 miles
long"
Some CT the difficulties encounter
ed in shipping are shown in the fol
lowing:
"Tbe meat for Eurone has oo,e in
fleets of vessels under conway. and
the Food Administration has often
been unable to know very far in ad.
vance when cargo space would be
available For this reason Sw;ft and
Companv mas Frequently been noti-
ned that n certain number of millions
of pounds would be wanted at n GER
tain mort within n few DAYS. Swift
and Companv has often had shin.
ments on the way to the seaboard
within a few hours after tho orders
have been received and believes that
il has met with signal success in the
filing of such rush orders.
"The packing industry WAS able il

 REV. YOUNG'S NEW BOOK

Adventures in Alaska" the latest literary work of s. Hall Young' author of "The Klondike Clan," and other Alaska books, has just been ls' sued. The book is illustrated ana bound in cloth, selling at $1.50 in the book stores.
 Adventures in Alaska" starts With the rush down the Yukon river to the Nome diggings in 1899, and Dr Young's experineces in religious work on Seward peninsula is told. His writ ings in no way suffer when set in comparison with those invented by expert writers of fiction, and there ls personal touch running through the chapter that appeals to the reader
 s. Hall Young was among the flrs' who carried the word of God into the interior, his first book, "The Klondlke Clan" telling the story of his trip over the Chilkoot to the Klondike and was stationed at Cordova several years ago.

FRIENDLY ADVICE

Our Alaska friends are somewhat given to excitability and quick action, but we ask them to ''stop, look and listen'' before they go into the $lO,- 900, 900 steamship project. Let them forget Wick for a moment and be guided by sound wisdom. In this pa per will be found an article on the sub- ject. It is written solely to help Alaska and to prevent them making a grave error. Don't make the addi- tional mistake of saying this is steam ship propaganda, for it is not. Those companies would still live and be able to laugh at disaster while the new line would starve to death. In fact, it might be that the establishment of tne line would prove an excellent ob- feet lesson But for all that, it is foregone failure, and it's packers would heap ridicule upon themselves. But if there is no way of stopping the move, then let it be shown that there are fourteen new wooden boats lylng idle in Lake Union, and they are ideal for the experiment and would save the delay in construction. They are freighters. No passenger boats are available. The fourteen can be bought at a total figure around $6,OOO,OO0. This would allow the Alaskans a sur plus of $4,000,00O for operating ex- penses. The fourteen boats could carry all the competitive freight North in one trip for each and hurry back light. Total years earnings, $30O,OOO. Interest on $10,000,00O at 6 per cent, $500, O,00O.-Railway and Ma rine News.

PRosPEcTORs NEEDED

The suggestion of J. E. Barrett Of Mccarthy that Alaska needs prospec- tors worse than anything else just now is absolutely true. The lack of pros pectors is responsible in large measure for the slowing down in mining devel- opment and promotion. This fact is recognized in the Interior, and re- cently the Fairbanks chapter of the American Mining Congress started a movement to secure aid for prospec- tors from the federal government. MT. Collins introduced a memorial urging congress to appropriate $40O,000 to ere ate fund for that purpose, and it was passed by both houses of the Alaska legislature. Every encouragement should be given to induce prospectors to resume the occupation of securing the hills and valleys of Alaska for mineral wealth.
 There is not a mining camp in Alaska that is not the result of the toll of prospectors, and more prospec- tors would without doubt result in more mining camps, more towns, more business and more development in all lines.-Juneau Empire.

 Those persons who are on the out side of the fence looking in are ex- ceedingly jealous of the ones who are on the inside looking out, 1t would ap- pear by the bill introduced in the sen ate by Senator Sundbach. He would prohibit officeholders from exercising their rights as American citizens to take part in politics. We can hardly see why just because a man happens to get an office he ceases to become human. He should have as many priv ileges as the rest of the citizens of tle territory. Those privileges are few and small enough under the pres ent form of government, but they should not be curtailed.-Douglas News.
 Some thirsty individual living in these parts figured out an ingenious plan for the importation of wet goods" that he had every reason to expect would succeed, but nothing seems to escape the vigilant eyes of the local sleuths. The plan involved the use of the ordinary milk cans, wrappers and case-the whole looking like an ordinary case of canned milk. But the cans contained something with more authority than milk-some- thing that had kick to it ;that upon drinking made one see trees as men walking, as the saying goes. When this innocent-looking case ar rived at the local depot sleuth was on the job. One of the cans was opened and the contents revealed. Not much chance for the imported product to get into town when an original scheme like this fails to escape de- lection. Better stick by the home brew, bad as it is said to be; or per haps better still, confine yourself to "the nectar that Jupiter sips. An cEorage Times.

THRO' THE YEARS
ago..

 Down the pathway of life, Along the years of time Since that summer of youth I've wanted you-heart of mine! No other eyes, no other lips, Have glanced nor spoken yet A love that eer could hold my heart Or teach me to forget! Moments have come when l tho't Your image would depart But joy, nor sorrow, nor endless time Can erase it from my heart! While the years roll on and we meet Here and there from time to time, glimpse your face or hear your voice And my heart leaps out to thine! And when I'm in crowd, Or mayhap with few, often lose myself in dream Of your kisses, your love and you! When your eyes meet mine With love-light lingering yet, Dear, tremble yet joy to know That you, too, can not forget! -Annabelle DennisOn MacConnell.

 And Alaskans can best show their loyalty and love for Alaska by boost ing all together for the future of Alaska, for the development that the territory deserves, that we may prove that our territory can pay the nations war debt-that we can do it.-Fair. banks Citizen.
 Many real estate deals are being made the past few weeks, and the way property is moving indicates that the city is good place to live in. The latest sale of magnitude was the Carl. son block, to Sonnie Schmidt, who will use it for a store room.-Valdez Miner.
 In spite of fine-spun explanations, tie reason Wickersham has not an. nounced his candidacy for election as delegate to congress at tho election called for June 3 is the certainty that he feels that he would be defeated in spit of-or because of-the fact that he is the widest known of all the pub. lie men of the territory.
