MAYO DISTRICT WILL
 HAVE PHONE SERVICE

Application has been granted for
 the incorporation of the Mayo Tele-
 phone company, limited. with capi- : tai of $100,00O, divided into shares
 of Sl each, says the Dawson News.
 The object of the company is to carry on general telephone busi- ness. The incorporators are J. E.. Binet and Oscar Letourneau of
 Mayo Landing and Joseph Beaupre and C. R. Black of Dawson.
 The Mayo Utilities company, lim- ited, has been incorporated in Daw- son. The company is given power to engage in different lines of busi- ness within the Yukon territory, chiefly wire and wireless telephony, electric light, heat, and power, and water works in all branches.
 Local representatives say the com pany is prepared to go ahead with its works just as fast as conditions will warrant The intention is to supply the Mayo district with tele- phone service without delay, and may also soon connect Dawson and Mayo by phone, either by way of Lower Dominion creek, and from there to relay over the local com
 pany's line to Dawson, or by way of Selkirk, and from there to relay over the government telegraph line
 to Dawson, which would effect a great line saving to the company. ; One of the incorporators says nego- tiations in that connection are we'll
 under way with the Ottawa govern ment and the local telegraph office. The incorporators are: Dr. A. J. Gillis, A. E. Lamb and D. A. Mathe- son of Dawson and John McCoomb of New York.

ALTITUDE RECORD.

Jean Casale, who established a new airplane flight for height rec ord June IA, 1919, when he mount ed 9,52O meters (of 39.37 inches) has satisfied himself by laboratory test that he may safely attempt to reach his announced goal of 12,OOO meters, or seven and a fifth miles, says an Associated Press correspond ent, writing from Paris.
 Casale spent more than an hour in dramatically sealed cabinet equipped with air-density and other scientific instruments. He controlled the exhausting of the air and the admission of compressed oxygen through a form of gas mask.
 The atmosphere was reduced to the equivalent of the pressure at the 12,000-meter height in AT minutes and 30 seconds, and normal atmos- pheric pressure was restored in 20 minutes.
 The aviator said he experienced cold and a sense of dizziness. At one time he closed his eyes, but found it accentuated his dizziness. During most of the experiment he kept his ears stopped.

THE PLEA OF THE FUTURE.

The moments are quickly passing. and we stand like some traveller upon lofty crag that separates two boundless seas. The century that is closing is complete. "The past" said your great statesman, "is secure" It is finished and beyond our reach. The hand of detraction cannot dim it's glories, nor the tears of repentance wipe away its stains. Its good and evil, its joy and sor- row, its truth and falsehood, its honor and its shame we cannot touch. Sigh for them, blush for them, weep for them if we will, we cannot change them now. The old century is dying and they are to be buried with him; his history is fin ished and they will stand upon its roll forever.
 The century that is opening is all our own. The years that are before Ius are virgin page. We can in- scribe them as we will. The future of our country rests upon us. The

HAZELET SAYS CHOICE

While passing through Ketchikan recently on his way to his home in Cordova, after attending the Re- publican national convention at Chi cago, George c. Hazelet reported that he had inquired of people all along his route of travel as to their opinion of the outcome, and almost unanimously they expressed satis- faction. A majority of them were not only satisfied but enthusiastic and confident that Senator Harding would be elected President in the fall. .-.-
 Mir. Hazelet is convinced that the Republican party will be successful in the November election, and for that reason he is particularly anx- ious to see the Republicans in the North make strong and organized campaign to elect a Republican dele |gate and legislature, as we'll as at ltorney-general. The opportunity is lat hand, he thinks, and if the cause lis lost it will be the fault of the Republicans. He thinks, however, that J. c. Mcbride, the national

Carmen Workers union.

 This became known in New York recently when officials of the union announced that it has committee lat work laying the foundation fol the first group of union-owned fac tories, which are expected to be in operation by next spring.
 These factories are to be estab- lished, according to Benjamin Schles- finger, international president, to demonstrate that the workers can be paid first-class wages, work less hours, and enjoy better working conditions than they are now get ting, and reap a reasonable profit from their product and still sell it considerably under the regular mar ket price.
 The union proposes to sell its output to consumers through its own stores.
 The first group of six factories will be established in New York, together with a number of union stores, union officials said. Others will be located in Chicago and Phila- delphia. .~-.: ..>. -...-
 Ample funds for the factories have been provided by the interna- tional union, MT. Schlesinger said, and later, as more money is needed, "union shop and factory assess ments" will be levied to finance the project until it is put on a paying basis. ..::.
 "We expect be turning out medi- um and high price garments for the spring trade" A. Baroff, secretary of the union, said. "The first fac tories probably will employ about 1000 workers, to be selected by the union." They will pay higher wages than are paid by employers in the garment industry, and a seven-hour work day will be in effect, he added. The workers now work an eight hour day, with a half holiday on Saturday.
 The local unions of the Ladies' Garment Workers, according to Mir. Baroff, are also taking steps on their own initiative to defeat the high cost of living by establishing cooperative restaurants and stores. A number of stores have been start ed in New York and a restaurant is being operated by unions in Phila- delphia, he said.

LOOKING FORWARD.

In a big armchair in one corner of a grocery store there sits an old man who delights to talk about his past If he can get a listener he will sit by the hour and tell of the days of the Civil war, when he fought and was wounded; the years of his youth and early manhood, which he calls "the good old days that have gone" His span of life is nearly run, and he lives in the past.
 There are a great many people, however, points out the editor of Henry Ford's Dearborn Independent, whose life has not yet reached it's zenith, who are inclined to talk the same waye They are disgruntled with things as they now are. They complain about the high cost of living. Rent, food and clothing cost more than they ever have before. They can see no hope for the fu- ture.

 Why is it that people will spend their time in a museum, looking at the dead and dried bodies of an- cient mummies, whose usefulness has long since ceased? How much more inspiring it is to go to kinder garten, and see there the inventors, teachers, and statesmen that are to be. Why not look to the future instead of to the past?
 What if the price of eggs, and meat, and bread and butter is high? What if it does cost more, in money, to clothe and feed your family than in the days that are past? Wages have also increased; not in the pro- portion that the cost of living has, perhaps, but the trend is still up ward. Things will adjust them selves in time.

LOCAL YOUTH RETURNING
FROM NEAR EAST RELIEF

A cablegram from the Near East
Relief Society has informed James
r. Larcombe, industrial secretary of
the Y. NJ. G. A, that his son, Russell.
who has been associated with the or
ganization since the armistice, sailed
from Constantinople for home on
June 10. The adventures of the
American relief workers in the
Orient will be told by a Near East
Relief speaker at the Baptist Church
Sunday morning. Working under
the most trying conditions the Near
East Relief Society h& ccomplished
wonderful work. and much credit Is
due to some of the young Americans
who, after their hilitary service
came to an end, enlisted to help bet
ter conditions in the Near East
Young Larcombe. who enlisted
when he was eighteen, has had some
wonderful experiences among the
Turks, joining the Red Cross after
the armistice Inc being assigned to
work with the Relief. In his inter-
esting letters to his family, while
making light of the hardships he
has continually undergone among an
unreceptive people, he brings to
light many Of the awful conditions
existing in these countries. The rail-
road situation, according to n let
ter. is in a deplorable condition. The
letter was to go by way Of Samsoun,
400 miles from Talas, Caesarea.
where Larcombe was stationed at the
time. Travelling 500 miles by wagon,
in an attempt to get out OF Turkey,
he reached his destination only to
find the railroad entirely shut down.
With absolutely no communication
with Constantinople. in the interior
states, the banks were not able to
cash any drafts, and the workers
were up against it."
One twenty-mile tract ear Mnlatia
is strewn, writes Larcombe, with the
81 skeletons Of prosecuted Armenians.
Out of the 10000 Armenians who
where deported from Sivas and Caes-
area, 1000 are alive today. Not only
do the Armenians tell Of the con-
ditions, but the Turks themselves
boast Of their %torturing their prey,
the letter says.
Held up by bandits and shot at
several times by u~nfriendly Turks,
Larcombe writes that he will be glad
to reach home again despite the dne
work which his outfit has been do
ing in these countries.

who headed a delegation of promln-
ent Filipinos to the national conyen-
tions Of the two political parties at
Chicago and San Francisco, will sail
with the hundred congressman for
the Philippines.
Inclusion in the platform of the
Democratic national convention of
a plank calling for immediate Phil
ippine independence is being urged.
Former Representative Clyde II.

wiser and executive of the delega-
ton SEN by the Filipino government

the Philippine Independence publ
city campaign in the United States;
Arsenic N. Luz, manager of the
Philippine Commercial Agency, in
New York. and Filipe Buencamino,
a prominent attorney in Manila.
The argument of the delegation
at the two conventions is, briefly as
follows:
First-That the American declara-
ton of independence asserts that
governments derive their just powers
from the onsen of the governed.
Second-That the American con-
gress in the Jones law, approved
August 20. 1916. solemnlv promised
the Filipinos indenenf
adjustment of a stable govern
ment. and that their r.t A4 t

Third-That America went before

avowed champion of self determine
ton American soldiers having been
told ii was one Of the things they
were fighting and dying for.

official delegation that
they are willing to accept indepena-
ence under any of the following
conditions: (a)-under the protec-
torate of the United States for the
first few years; (b)-under a treaty
of neutrality between the United
States. France, Japan. England and
other powers; (c)-or even without
any condition whatever-absolute
and complete independence.
