Agrees Ships Should BE Sold


yet / notice that 215 of these
wooden ships have been sold. Every
one agrees these ships ought TO be
sold, but in view of the statement of
the chairman of the Shipping Board
/ believe this sale ought to have been
delayed. The total of the sale would
amount to only about S450.000. where
as these ships cost $150,000,O00 or
more.
There has been great deal of talk
about the maintenance of these ships
and Mr.. Lasker in his testimony said
il cost him 100000 to maintain this
wooden feet down at Norfolk in the
James river. After the sale was an
nounced in the papers, l saw that Mr..
Lasker raised this amount to ST.
100000 per year. 1t has been only a
few months since the representatives
of the Shipping Board appeared before
the Appropriations Committee and said
il was costing only $4,000 every
three months to maintain these ships
Thinks Price Ridiculously Low
"But | was informed only the other
day by man in position to know, and
who. ! am sure. is thoroughly reliable,
that ii is not costing anything like
$4,000 a month to maintain these
ships. He said if the books were in
yestigated and the facts known ii
would be shown ii is costing the Gov
-ernment only $4,000 a month to main
tain these vessels, or at the rate OF
$l.67 a day for each ship.
I'm view of this. if that is true, il
was waste of the public money at
this particular time to sell these yes
sells for a mere $1,000 each when they
cost anywhere from $500 900 to $780,
600 apiece. We have heard consid-
cradle criticism of the previous Ad-
ministration for its sale of war ma
terials and war assets, but | submit
there has never been a sale made in
the history of this Government when
property costing the amount that these
ships cost was sold at such ridiculous
ly low prices-sixty cents a ton for
ships that cost $3.50 a ton"

A STEP TOWARD REAL HARMONY

1t is safe to assume that de
cided majority Of Democrats
would be only too glad TO see fac
tionalism reduced as far as posi-
bic to a minimum. By factional-
ism is meant in this connection
the placing OF divisions within the
party above the party itself.
The suggestion was expressed
in a recent issue OF the Evening
Capital that one way to clear the
political atmosphere would be foi
one or two OF those candidates OF
each faction. who have been most
directly the cause OF keeping fac
tionalism alive. to withdraw from
the contest for the State Contra
Committee. For them to do thi.
would not only not be any Sigr
OF weakness, but, on the contrary
would be big thing for them &c
do,-so big, in fact, that it would
be an irresistible stroke for party
success. 1t would, moreover
open the eyes OF the under
strapper in both factions and le'
them, and everybody else. know
that, after all. factions can have
a useful and honorable part t
play in the game of politics.-th,
goal being good government. anf
not mere factional advantage.
1t is no reflection whatever OF
the present State Central Com
mittee to suggest that, in view o
the present hubbub within thu
party, their voluntary withdraw
at this time from the primary con
test would remove the cause o
much of the sharp feeling that ex-
lists i'll some quarters. The three
Gentlemen-Messfs. Douw, Chew
and Revell.-particularly the hrs'
and last named. are active eXpon
ents of their respective faction;
and>have been conspicuous III the
factional activities of the past few
weeks. As a result of all these
developments, we now have fac
tionalism in probably more
acute form than ever before. Be
cause OF this the Democratic
party is that much worse off IL
the county.
Each faction has a number Of
candidates for the State Central
Committee around whom a rea'
harmony move" could be made
and right there is where party
workers can, with perfect justin
cation, place their first hopes o
getting together. The selection
of the State Central Committee
is a matter entirely within tho
party, and of party government
If there could be accord between
the two factions in making up this
ticket OF committeeman (thert
being no candidates independent
of the nations), great step for
ward would be taken. 1t is no,
too late to do this now. Is there
enough real leadership within the
party to make the move?

TRANERS' last memory of his sister
4 was slim gray form leaning
against tho white pillars of the porch.
Her largo eyes were still troubled and
her fair face very sad. Niola's trouble
was a mystery to him--sho had al

creature, and now in the last five years
she had sObercd into woman who
went about as if her heart was in some

He had racked his brain TO think
Of some reason for her change, and
when he had n chance to take brief
vacation he thought Of his old class
mate, Jimmie Iadd, who had built n
studio in the heart of the wilds and had
not been seen by civilized man for sew
eral years. Old Jimmie, once n wizard
among girls, would at least hazard a
guess at Viola ) pre- occupation.
"What the deuce are you doing

GOSSIP OF
THE STREET

II happened in one of the attractive
Atlantic City Boardwalk branch Offices
OF one of the leading New York wire
| houses. 4 number of well-known
traders had just dropped in to take
glimpse at the tape. The market
| situation was discussed from various
| angles and there was a striking diver
| sitv of opinion as to the immediate
| future. There was good -natured heck
ling of one another, and while this was
going on former partner of another
/ big house drifted ip and Joined in the
controversy. He incidentally remarked
a pool with considerable good backing
had been formed 10 look after certain
| prominent oil stock which had been
dormant for some time. Leaving little
! ahead of the others his informal tip
was made the leading topic of heated
discussion.
Curiously. within fifteen minutes
after his departure. the stock in ques-
tion began to move and before the clos
! Ing showed n clean cut gain of more
than . points. The day after and the
two following II remained the stellar
! attraction Of the oil group and in four
days was up nearly 10 points from the
quotation when it was first mentioned.
The more interesting side of the story
that not one of these big traders, and
all pre regarded among the most skillful
in wall street. took n share on the long
side, but considered the incident good
signal for taking the opposite position
So il shows some Of the clevcrcst are
not all the most successful in the big
Wall street game.
Strike News n Poor Bear Card
It is traditional in Wall street that
1t never pays to sell a stock market on
strike news.
Nothing else was spoken of. written
of or talked about yesterday except the
railroad labor situation. 1t was some
what interesting, mt times amusing. ia
read or listen TO the different opinions
offered In some quarters the belief
prevailed both sides were playing a gi-
gantic bluff In another, opinion was
expressed that the brotherhood chiefs
were mancuvering to force the Govern =
ment TO assume again control of the
carriers. They pointed out that the
railroad workers had taken great
liking TO the McAdooism diet and
wanted more Of it, They also pointed
out II they succeeded in forcing the
Government into the position of again
taking over control the strike would be
Immediately called off. In still another
quarter the action Of the brotherhood,
was assailed as being'a little short OF
crime, and the strike would be lost from
the day it started. From a more radical
element. the argument was made that
the railroad executives were forcing
the strike in order TO have the long
drawn out labor controversy settled for
good. Because If the Curtnicd busi
ness and industrial operations the issue
they claim, could not be forced at a
better time
On the other side. the more conser.
vative element expressed the belief there
was sufficient statosmanShip existing al
Washington TO devise means of pacify
ing both of the contrsting interests. So
II was case of taking your choice. In
the meantime prices steadily crumbled
away, CanCoing what was remaining Of
the Improvement scored by the rails last

A GOOD MOVE

Delegate Sutherland favors an a. mendment in the mining laws which would permit the holder of claim to preform s100 worth of work upon the public roads or to pay $1OO in- to the public road fund each year in lieu of doing annual assessment work on a mining claims as a con- dition for holding it. The change would be a good thing. Very few mining claims have been developed through the assessment work that has been done upon them. The chief value of assessment work is that it serves as a tax which prevents one from holding a claim forever with out doing anything with it while if it were abandoned someone else might stake it and develop it. This ben eft could be secured just as well through a similar expenditure on the public roads, and work done on the roads, under the direction of the proper officers, is beneficial to the Territory.

MANY PATRONAGE WARS

According to Washington news peper correspondents Alaska is not the only political division of the United States where there are bitter factional quarrels over patronage. In New York it is said Senator Wadsworth and Senator Calder are the respective leaders in a stren- uous pie counter war. In Indiana Senator New and Senator Watson are at swords points and each of them is using his weapon with all the pol itical skill he possesses. Similar contests are waging between Sen ator Mckinley and Senator McCor- mich in Illinois, between Senator Edge and Frelinghuysen in New Jer- sey, and between the Senators in several other States.

A PARADOX
'

Back of Cordova with a railroad leading almost to their veins are fields of the best grade of coal ever discov- ered in the country west of the Pacific from the Gulf of California on the south to the Arctic ocean on the north, in fact for steaming purposes it has no equal. In the vicinity of Katalla, only few miles back from the coast are oil wells capable of furnishing thousands of barrels of high grade oil daily, more than enough like the coal deposits to supply the territory of AL aska.
 The best of coal, the best mineral oil, right at the back door, and what de we find? 10000 barrels of crude oil of an inferior quality, thousands of tons of coal of pooer grade ship ped into the country and dumped up- on the land so as to almost smother the superior material.
 The shipping in of pooer material to use in place of the superior goods at hand appears to be the custom here in Alaska, and only in this driven home as if propelled by a thousand ton trip hammer, in case of the coal and oil; but should one stop to think they will be forced to admit all such i'm portations are not the relative val. ues in other, or animate objects, are as great in comparison as it issin the inanimate products.
 There is lesson to be mastered by Alaskans, also those responsible for it's government and that is this {; The people may be fooled for quite a while with the inferior goods shipped in, but some day they will awake to the fact that all the while superior coals, superior Oil, superior citizens for officeholders, exist here in the land and then look out, as Poor Old Honest Ade used to say.-Nome Nugget.
