MILL BUILDER SAFE
 AFTER HARD JOURNEY

For a time considerable anxiety was felt over the safety of Doug las Meade, of Douglas, who left here early in the summer with several other men to construct the stamp mill on the mining property of the Treadwell Company near McGrath, in the Kuskokwim district. Mr Meade is a carpenter and was to have charge of the construction work.
 News came to the coast that Mir. Meade and party had become lost somewhere on the overland trail to the Kuskokwim and nothing more was heard of them until about week ago when telegram was re- ceiyed announcing his arrival several weeks ago. His wife and two chil- dren live at Douglas.
 The kusko Times, printed at Me Grath, has the following to say about the matter in the issue of September [:
 Douglas Meade. one of the four men who lost their way en route from Ruby to Ophir, arrived at Ia eotna in company with Messrs. Swee- ney and McGinnis, making the trip from Flat in six days. Mir. Meade says the members of the party, while lost, suffered no very great hard. ship. They were completely out of grub for two days, living on blue berries for two days just before reaching a cabin on the Tolstoi Riv. er The party made a raft on the Tolstoi, and did not meet anyone until just before reaching Shage- lux Slough, where they met a na- tive. The party was very fortunate in killing a moose, and lived on moose straight during the trip down river.
 ''The party. when they hit the Tolstoi, thought they were on the innoko River and above the town of Ophir, but after drifting 12 hours were satisfied they were on the wrong stream,
 "The other three men. who waited at Shageluk for boat, were due to arrive at Iditarod on September l."

Inn proved transportation and lower freight rates are required and must be had, if the Territory is to go ahead That is clear But the gov ernment may well keep out of the steamship business in Alaska until private enterprise has demonstrated conclusiyely it's inability, under prop CT regulation and control, to give the service and rates required. The aggregate of tonnage is not now of great magnitude and is divided be- tween two steamship lines. operat- small vessels. not common-carriers, which carry cargoes to and from can neries and other industries. With the government railroad in full oper- ation the aggregate of tonnage will largely increase. It is to be as sumed that existing steamship lines will be ready to meet new conditions as they arise or that new steamship enterprises will seize the opportuni- ties offered.

 "The discretionary power proposed in the New bill for the use of United States vessels seems to me a prudent authorization. I favor it. A situa- tion may arise which will make a government steamship line not only advisable but necessary. also fla vor the provision in the New bill for the leasing, with the Presidents ap- proval. of ships of the United States for use in Alaskan waters. and the leasing of the government railroad The provision in both bills extending the jurisdiction of the Interstate Commerce Commission over water and land transportation in Alaska is wise and thoroughly desirable.

It has retaf'def enterprise and population and made only for confusion and complication The fact that the Ter ritory has actually gone backward in the last decade--aHd this, too, in spite of the investment by the gov ernment of over $50o0o,o0o in the coast into the interior-is suffi cient condemnation of the present system
 Under such a chronic system. with the Territory for removed from the seat of Federal authority. business like procedure in any direction has been rendered well nigh impossible The pioneer spirit has been maimed and honest industry and legitimate enterprise baffled Naturally, the lack of coherent government has made Alaska the prey of visionaries and theorists.
 Distractions Encountered
 Constructions met by capital seek ing investment and by people in quest of homesteads plainly account for the slow development of the Ter ritory. Capital and people need only Q chance--a fair chance-to do their part Both are entitled to have the path made easier than it has ever been in the past. Hitherto the diff ficuities encountered have been dis couraging and disheartening in the extreme
 Many Pressing Problems
 Alaska has many problems press ing for solution. The first step to- ward their solution, in my opinion, is concentrated and centralized au- thority and responsibility as contem. plated by the pending legislation. Di- vided and ill-defined authority and responsibility tend manifestly to estop or retard the solution of any problem. Once a logical system of government is created I have the fullest confidence that the Territory's problems. including the important problems of transportation, will be speedily and rightly solved and Al aska will go ahead The completion of the government railroad makes doubly imperative the inauguration of a workable system of administra- ton without unnecessary delay.
 "On the main issue of the need of co-ordinated Federal activities in AL aska no plausible argument in oppo- sition has yet been entered. That it would be condueive to the dispatch of business and general efficiency, and to economy as well. is too ob- yious for controversy. The fear that any needed bureau would be broken down. or it's usefulness impaired, by transfeI from one department to an. other, impresses me as imaginary rather than real. Instead of impair ment, there is every reason to be- lieye that co-ordinated system would at once increase the useful ness of each essential bureau.

II don't know of any industry that

Mr.. Shearer. "Before the war it was
easy for us to grow our crops and
get rid of them at fair price We
knew little of where they went. Now
we want to know why it is that our
storehouses are bursting with unsold
crops while we know that millions of
people in other lands are suffering for
them"
AS an explanation, Mr.. Shearer
sketched the development of the
United States since the Civil War,
showing how the United States came
to owe European investors four bill
lion dollars on which the interest was
paid in products of farms and fac
tories. The war closed with Europe
owing the United States IA billion dol
lars and with no resources to buy
American goods.

Sketchfng the advantage that or
ganization had brought to labor and
commerce. Mr.. Shearer said that ag-
riculture must organize in the same
way.
He told how the Bingham county

distribution cost of their product from

ROOM FOR WORK AT GREAT
SCHOOL ON THE HILL.

Many changes are being made in
office and class room assignments in
preparation for occupying the new
south wing of the Administration

those now being moved.
Steel book stacks on the first floor
of the new wing are nearly ready for

to be the biggest task of the summer.
Books will be shelved on the first

mezzanine floor. The law library will
occupy a part of the present quarters
of the general library on the second
floor. A separate periodical room, in
quarters formerly occupied by the
