so much money that the casualty com panies were losing in their venture and withdrew, leaving the companies to pay themselves. Dollars and cents cOldly figured out by these underwrit- CTS, is the best evidence that the Shoup-Sulzer act of 1915 has been a success, so far as the employe is con cerned.
 In connection with the amounts al lowed under the law now in force it may be said that the injured work man is given more than that pro- vided by any other compensation act of any state in the union.
 1t is to be hoped, therefore, that the legislature, instead of experimenting with something new will simply ex- tend the old law to all the industries, specifying them particularly-Ketc ikan Chronicle.

TO
 KUSK0KWIM IS
 NOT JUSTIFIED

It would be a great pity and a serious mistake for people to stam- pede into the Kuskokwim district expecting to reap a quick fortune, according to Territorial Mine Inspect or B. D. Stewart. Mining conditions there have not been exaggerated but it should be remembered that it is quartz district and it will take both money and considerable work to even prospect the country before real de- velopment can begin.
 MT. Stewart recently returned from an inspection of the district in which he covered it thoroughly. And while he believes that it is one of the coming hard rock camps of the ter ritory, he warns against a stampede. No one, he declared should go into the district unless he is equipped, with complete outfit and can make himself Independent of outside work. There is no work to Be had at this time, he stated. The Treadwell peo- pie have all the help needed now and there is no other outfit there operating as employers of labor. Sup plies are also scanty, according to MT. Stewart, on account of the last shipments from the outside markets not reaching their destination. The boat with these supplies was frozen in by the early close of river navi- gation.
 Like Hyder, the quartz district of the Kuskokwim is not now poor mans camp. And those who go must be financially able to provide for themselves while they prospect The country is comparatively open, and easy to prospect.

THINGS WE THINK Things Others Think and What We Think Of the Things Others Think

A blockhead might easily be level headed.
 Even when man marries belle he has to furnish the ring.
 If some people could have all the money they could use they would still kick about the price of things.
 Did yeu ever say, 70, that's all right" when you wanted to condemn the person to eternal fires?
 The person who is always finding fault with others may be trying to drag them down to his own level.
 It's nice to be able to say, When I've got anything to say, spit 1t right out" but the person who does that is likely to find that those who have anything to say to him follow his example.

Ketchikan Democratic Club,

Lawmakers-elect of the Fourth di- vision should make close inquiry into the workings of the Territorial publicity bureau, with view to getting the maximum of results for the territory. Should continuance of the publicity work appear to the legislators to be warranted, they might with wisdom give consideration to the very sensible plan of the Nome Nugget, which suggests that the news papers of the territory be aided in advestising their respective districts. As it is at present conducted, the bu- reau spends all of the publicity money in Juneau and the benefits, in the way of publicity, are about equally divided between Governor Riggs and the First division.-Nenana News.

GOLD BONUS NEEDED

We are entirely in sympathy with the Alaskan miners in their sugges-
 tion that they be given a certain
 bonus on every ounce of gold actual ly produced It is quite unnecessary to go into any lengthy discussion of the situation. Enough to say that in all these years where the price of food stuffs and equipment have been mounting, with corresponding in- crease ill salaries and wages, the price of gold has remained station ary and in northern territory, richly endowed with the yellow metal, the peculiar condition exists that it is cheaper to allow the metal to remain in the ground rather than attempt to extract it, eithed by hand or machin- cry. Briefly, it costs about $22 to eX- tract twenty dollars worth of gold. This has resulted in the territory of Alaska for the last three years, show ing total production of about 35 per cent annually of the amount formerly mined each year. Unless some emer- gency action is taken the production must of necessity drop to practically nothing in the years to come. And this. in the face of the fact that under better conditions, Alaska could easily produce minimum of $25,000000 an and Marine News.

Chicago, June s.-A long black
cigar. it was, poised at an almost
perpendicular pitch, easily distin-
guishable in the sea of bobbing hats
and bonnets that moved toward the
main entrance of the Coliseum at
the conclusion of the convention
session this afternoon.

sole clue. He trailed it through the
door, into Wabash avenue. but
though only a few yards distant,
he was unable to overtake it be-
cause of the crush. 1t moved across
the sidewalk to the curb, entered a
taxicab and was whisked away. The
stranger followed. The chase led
to the Great Northern hotel. where
an elevator door closed on the cigar
as the reporter entered the lobby.
