ALASKAN G0LD-LODE MINING
Already Profitable, the Completion Of
the Government Railroad Will Aid
in Its Development.

Twenty-Five gold-lode mines were op-
Grated in Alaska in 1918, according
to the United States geological sur
vey, department of the interior. There
was also a production from seven
Observation-Disclosures mines or small
mines that were not in regular oper-
alton The value of the lode-gold out
put decreased from $4,5S1, 453 in 1917
to $3,473,3l7 in 1918, owing partly to
the disaster at the Treadwell mine in
April, 1917, and partly to curtailment
of operations, especially in the Juneau
district, because of shortage of labor.
Southeastern Alaska, especially the
Juneau district, is still the only cen
ter Of large quartz-mining operations
in the territory. Next in Importance
is the Willow Greek lode district. The
production in the Fairbanks district
decreased materially, as the lode-mine
owners of Fairbanks are still await
ing the cheapening Of operating costs,
especially Of fuel, which is expected
on the completion of the government
railroad In 1918 the average value of
the gold and silver contents for all
siliceous ores mined was $1.7O a ton;
the average for 1917 was $1.37 ton.
These averages reflect the dominance
in the total lode production of the
large tonnage produced from the low
grade ores of the Juneau district.

WORLD NEEDS THE ELDERLY
Their Ripened Experience and De-
veloped Judgment Make Them Of
Value to the Community.

Hardly anyone, if indeed anyone at
all, holds at thirty-five that he was
wiser when he was twenty-five, or says
at fifty that he knew more, and had
better judgment, when he was thirty
five. Yet young men are prone to
look upon older men as being dis
pensable. If a man could live to be two
hundred years old, retaining his mental
faculties unimpaired, leading an active
life as a member of a profession or a
man in business, his ripened expert
ence, his developed judgment, his vista,
would make him worth as much as
dozen youngsters in many respects.
Dr. William Mayo of Minnesota, I'M
like Doctor Osler who retired discOm-
fitted and never really explained, when
he made his famous declaration and
gave to the English language the term
"oslerized," says old men are the ma
TONS greatest assets. Aboriginal saw
ages said the same thing. The aged
Indian at the council fire was worth a
score of young bucks on the battle line.
One of the most valuable uses to
which the experience of old men is put
is detecting the sophistries of extrem-
lists and resisting agitators who urge
perilous innovation.
Doctor Mayo believes Is years add
ed to the average life since the Civil
war constitutes a task only half DONE
Another Is years may be added by
medical and surgical science plus edu-
cation which will lead to early adop-
ton of measures to preserve health.
the slogan, "a short life and a mer-
ry one" shortens life. Doctor Mayo
says and robs a race Of social ele-
ment~-hale and useful seniors-upon
which a value toe high cannot be set.
Assuredly, sane life and long one
Is desirable from the point of view of
both the state and individual.
Tile man who believes at fifty, or
sixty, or seventy, that his judgment is
better than it formerly was is alto
gether right.-Louisville Courier-Jour-
| nal.

Newspaper Printed in 1888.

A rare copy of newspaper has
come into the possession of the Colum-
bia university library, DR.. Carpenter,
acting librarian, announced, in the pur-
chase of a copy of the Pennsylvania
Packet and Daily Advertiser for April
Il, 1888, from w. F. Smith Of Phila-
delphia. The paper, which was pub
lished by John Dunlap and David c..
Claypool in Philadelphia, is four pages
in size, contains about two columns
of news and the balance is filled by
commercial advertising. OF particular
interest is a brief account of the Co
iumbia college commencement of 1888.
The first name on the list of candi-
dates awarded the master of arts de-
gree is Alexander Hamilton, and De
Witt Clinton holds the same position
among the receivers of bachelor of arts
diplomas.

Absence Sometimes Evidence of Tact.

SHASS''SS SSi'~sai'~S .v'OSpSS VI oSs.
Sometimes it's an evidence of tact
when people absent themselves. Only
big people can do it. Children and
childish adults have to hang around
with open mouths and staring eyes
lest something escape them. They are
the omnipresent nuisances that make
you want to tell them things. Really
big people can afford to let others do
"a few things without permission.
What others do ought not to detract
vitality from what you do unless what
you attempt is so small that it takes
little to overshadow it. Besides it's
only fair that others should have an
opportunity of showing what they can
do. The world will think more of you
If you give it chance to pass judg-
ment on it's efforts. And what is more
mere obstruction won't stop things
anyway. The best way to make things
popular is to furnish sufficient unjust
opposition. The persecution occasion
ed makes friends for the other side.

Mr.. Burton and Congress.

Former Senator Burton has an
nounced for the House from his old
district in Ohio-the Cleveland district
1t was while serving that constituency
he made the reputation which subse
quently secured his promotion to the
Senate and the mention of his name in
connection with the presidency. He
became prominent among his party's
national leaders.
While in Congress - first in the
House and then in the Senate Mr.
Burton specialized on finance and the
tariff, and had very close attention
whenever he took the floor on either
subject. He was recognized on Cap
itol Hill and throughout the country
as an unusually full man, who spoke
understandingly and with conviction.
The next Congress will afford fine
field for the exercise of the kind of
talents Mr.. Burton possesses. Men of
his stamp and quality. whether Of one
party or the other, will be much need
ed by the country in the immediate
future. Our finances require straight
ening out. They are in a tangle, and
not altogether because of the war. Our
tariff, when the time comes, will re.
quire the most thorough revision. Busi-
ness has never before been in state
of such general dislocation and uncer.
tainty; and stability and full pros.
perity are, and will remain, out os The
question while this condition exists
A big task awaits the national leg
islators whose commissions will run
from March next, and all nomina.
tions for those places should be made
with that fact confessed and remem.
bered. The emergency calls for solid
rather than snowy men.

Sugar Distribution.

A national sugar distributing COM
mittee has been organized, composed
Of refners, importers, wholesale gro
GERS and others, to conduct a supervi-
sion over the use of the sugar supply
to insure more equitable allotment.
One of the primary purposes is to see
that essential industries, such as those
engaged in canning and preserving
fruits and vegetables, get enough sugar
during the season when it is needed.
The committee will try to keep manu-
faeturers of soft drinks and candy
from getting supplies to an extent that
might interfere with the food supply.
The housekeepers can possibly take
comfort from this announcement They
are having hard time getting sugar
and are paying tremendous prices for
it. They themselves are troubled on
the score of preserving. By the time
they buy their fruits and sugar the
bottled foods have a value that justi-
fies their being locked in the most Sc
crst and secure places. A preserve
cellar will require bolts and bars as
strong as those that are used to main.

plies. for which there is no assured re,

Congress Under Censure.

President Wilson, Samuel Gompers,
president of the American Federation
of Labor, and the chiefs Of the rail-
road brotherhoods are in agreement
on one point at least, and a point
which will figure prominently in the
campaign. They unite in the opinion
that the present Congress is failure |;
that it has done things which it ought
not to have done, and left undone
things which it ought to have done. 1t
follows, of course, that they want a
change, and we shall probably see
them working together next fall to
bring a change about.
The combination will be strong, and
the republicans must take it into ac-
count. The reply to the charge con-
Germs itself not only with what Con.
gress at the session just closed did
and failed to do, but what was pos.
sible at the time the session began.
AS all are aware and must concede
Congress at the start faced a very large
order, and a very large amount Of dis
order. 1t was not an easy matter to
determine what was ripe and what un
ripe, or how to proceed with what wat
ripe. Congress could not hope to gel
! very far in one session. But it did
make start and good progress in the
matter of railroad transportation, In
that of a merchant marine. and in
that of a budget.=zihres most impor
tant matters.

priations presented many difficulties

New York's Murder Mystery

New York is rejoicing again in a
profound murder mystery. It is Of
the real detective story type. A well
known club man, horseman and whist
expert was found shot to death in his
own home after lively night in the
white light district. There was no one
else in the house and his body was
discovered by q housekeeper. There is
evidence that he responded to the post
mans early morning ring with mail.
Nothing in the way Of clue is to be
found. The body was discovered in q
chair, the bullet that caused death hav-
ing gone through the head and buried
itself in the wall. Inquiry discloses
that the dead man had had an adven-
turous career as a squire Of danes and
numerous possibilities of a Jealousy
motive for the crime have been brought
to light. Now not alone the city de-
tective force, but all the amateur and
book writing sleuths Of Manhattan,
whose name is legion, are on the job.
This case promises to furnish su-
preme sensation in New York for the
early summer. It is different from the
usual New York crime, for it closely
resembles the crime of fiction, which
is usually far from the fact.

Unlocked Hotel Rooms.

A report from Chicago says that il
is evidently regarded as bad form to
lock a hotel room during convention
week, for many Of the doors have been
found unfastened and even open dur.
ing the rush of the past few days. Yet
very few robberies have been reported.
Perhaps the thieves have been busy In
the crowds, or perhaps the visitors
have not left any valuables in their
rooms. This general leaving Of un.
locked doors is suggestive of the prac-
tice that prevails-at least it did pre-
vail before the war-in some parts of
Italy, where guests are asked to lock
their doors and to hang their keys on
Hooks just outside for the convenience
Of the hotel servants. The Italian sys.
tenn assuredly works satisfactorily, al
though it would suggest superfuity
of effort in turning the keys, or, in.
deed, a waste Of metal in having any
keys at all.

too progressive, too energetic an ex-
ecutive. We have also board which
is perfectly attuned to public senti-
ment, which heeds the opinions of the
people, which recognizes the primary
right of the public to voice in the
school management. which regards the
parents of the school children as
partners in the school matters.
With board sensitive to the eeel-
ings of the people the community is
assured of recognition and correct in
terpretation. And with such a board
the superintendent can close his ear,
to the voices of the people, relying en-
tirely upon the board for guidance as
to the popular will This leaves him
free to discharge his educational duty,
which, according to this definition,
comprises all that is needed i'll school
management.
Truly under such a situation the
public schools of the District would be
i
most admirably managed. The pubic
would have no reason to challenge any
body or anything. The superintendent
would have no reason to MAKE appeals
from the board to the public. The
board would have no reason to COM
plain of the superintendent.
Being both legislature and court, the
board could be independent, in this
jurisdiction, of Congress as this pres
ent board has sought to be. 1t could
be Independent of the courts save fJr
its creation and personnel. 1t would,
of course, have to be sure of correctly
understanding the public will in order
that it could interpret it correctly to
the superintendent. Whether the
board that testified before the Senate
select committee has that gift of in
terpretation is not of official record.

The South at Chicago.

For two reasons, the south was moi
considered at Chicago in connection
with the vice presidential nomination
The first reason was that she had nc
valid claim to consideration. There
are some very strong and able repub
licans living in that section, but the
party is powerless there. The cause
is another story. 1t is the fact that
counts. Why have gone to the south
for the second man for the ticket
when the selection of the ablest one
available would not have secured q
single electoral vote In the south, OF
strengthened the ticket in any other
section of the country
The second reason was that the nom,
ination of middle state man for first
place called for a western or an east
ern man for the second place. The
ticket must be balanced geographically
so to say. The convention turned to
the east, and made an excellent selec-
ton. Gov. Coolidge had a great deal
in his favor.
But the convention did thing from
which the south and all the rest of the
country will benefit if the order given
is.thoroughly and fairly executed. That
thing relates to the future strength of
the states in republican national con-
yentions. Delegates are to be appor-
toned according to republican votes
actually cast and counted in elections.
While the order will apply to all the
states, the chief changes made will be
in the southern states, where, for rea-
sons well known, the republican vote
is exceedingly small. Hence, four
years from now, and thereafter until
otherwise ordered, the south as part of
the nominating power of the repub-
ican party will be much reduced in
influence.
In time this change may lead to
other changes, until, in the end, repre-
se11tation in Congress, as well as in
political conventions is brought to an
equitable and constitutional basis.
