 For this portion of Southeastern Alaska the outlook is inn rowing with each succeeding day. Men are now being engaged to begin work in the early spring on paper mill con struCtlOn at Thanc-mCn who were formerly employed in the mine or mill-and this will mean as large or larger payroll than was ever maintained by the mining industry which that of paper manufacture will succeed Also, 1t will mean, in the main, the employment of a better and more skilled class of labor to say nothing of the army of timbermcn and pulp workers that will be required to supply material for the paper concerns, all of whom will home port on Gastineau Channel
 Therefore, those who are here now will do well to remain. While few may fold their tents and depart, they, like many who have gone before them, will heartily wish them selves back before another year has been add eel to the scroll of Time.
 The present administration at Washington has promised to do something for Alaska. Of course, this is only promise and we have been hearing them for many years, but some glad day one of these promises will be kept and who knows but what that it will be this time Let us give 1t the benefit of the doubt and trv to believe it VII be kept-that the Year of Jubilee is on the verge of dawning and that the sun of prosperity is about to shine more brightly and r"fulgontly than since the hal cyon days of '99
 Previous to very few years ago it is doubt fu if any president of the United States could, without consulting his private secretary, have told if asked, who was governor of Alaska doubtful if he could have named him in three gucsscs-but if is different now and the gov cInor of Alaska is in close touch with the pres idcnt and this augurcs well for the futurc of th" trrritody Better days for Alaska are comng.-Strol"r's Weekly.

ALASKA MEDICAL SERVICE

By the employment of physicians and nurses, tbc United States Bureau of Education is de- ing what is can to check the ravages of tuber cuosis and other diseases among the native races of Alaska. For this work persons of good educational qualifications successful cN- pcricncc, upright character, philanthroplc mo- tivcs, good judgement and ability to do effect tive work under adverse conditions are espec- ialIv desired. Most of the villages are remote from civilizations; many of them have no reg ular mail service and communicate with the neghboring settlements and the outside world only by occasional boats in summer and slcds in winter.
 A physician in the Alaska medical service is required to supervise one of the small hos pitals maintained by the bureau of education, or, under the direction of the district supcrin tendent of school to make tours of inspection of the villages in his district, furnishing med icaI relief to the inhabitants, cndoavoling to introduce and maintain sanitary conditions ill the homes and villages and giving instruction to fine teachers in the use of medicines and in the care of patients.
 Nurses are required to assist the physicians in the care of the sick in the hospitals or na- tive villages, to give instruction in hygiene, Jnd r. conduct physical exercises in the school rooms, and to visit the homes of the natives instructing them in matters pertain ing to health.
 The cost of living varies with the location of the villages and the tastes of the appontrcs.
 Persons actuated chiefly by financial mo Hvcs are not desired, says the bureau of ed ucation. The salaries paid to physicians in the Alaskan medical service range from $l,S0O to $2,SOO and the salaries of nurses from $500 to $l 400 per annum. The bureau of cduca tlon usually pays the transportation of its "ppontccs from Seattle, WaSh., to their dcs tinaton in Alaska and the travelling expenses incurred by them in performing their official duties
 Persons desiring positions in the Alaska medical service are not required to pass an examination, but must make application upon the form prescribed by the commissioner of education.-Ex.

SIMS SAYS INCIDENT

Admiral Sees Growing Approval of
His Condemnation of Sim Fein
Activities Here.

RELFAST, August S.-A letter from
Rear Admiral William S. Sims. aci
knowledging receipt of congratulations
E from the Belfast Comrades of the Great
War on his recent speech before the
English Speaking Union in London, in
which he criticised activities Of Sim
Fein sympathizers in the United States,
was made public here today.
The letter. dated July IL, reads as
follows:
81 can assure you it is matter of
great qualification to me to find that
the loyal men of Ulster hold the same
opinions as I do as to the English
speaking peoples. 1t may interest you
to know that practically all the reputa-
BILE newspapers in the United States are
now in thorough approval of our con-
tlemnation of the activities of Sim Fein
sympathizers in the United States
This has been brought about by a
remarkable expression of opinion by the
American people in the form of showers
of letters and kilograms to all con-
cerned. 1t would almost seem as
though the incident were about to be
transformed into an issue. At all events,
ii will apparently have a considerable
effect in the future. II is my hope that
it will exercise a very considerable in
f1uence upon the relations between our
Two countries"

government was prompted not
only by their desire to pay.
personal tribute to Mr.. Hughes
but also by a growing sentiment
of friendliness and understanding
between Italy and the. United

himself particularly to that
element by what he has done to
promote closer relations between
the two countries, especially while
he served as president Of the Italy
