In the mind of the late Theodore
Roosevelt, General Wood was the
ideal American soldier and citizen
and Colonel Roosevelt did every
thing in his power to advance the
general so that his ability might be
used to the advantage of the nation.
The denial Of the privilege to Gen
eral Wood to lead his men in the
world war, was bitterly resented by
Roosevelt.
When it came to the selection OF
republican candidate for the pres
idency in 1920. Wood doomed as the
choice in the presidential prefer
ence primaries, but after struggle
in the convention. lasting several
days, with several candidates snow
ing nearly the same strength. Sen
ator Harding was nominated. While
Harding, as president, is endearing
himself to the people, the fact re-
mains that General Wood was at the
time of the convention, the popular
idol.
General Wood has served his
country well, in peace and in war,
and his retirement from the army
marks the retirement of a great SOL
der from military life. He com
bined, however the rare qualities
of statesman with those of a sol
der and this combination made him
great in both military and civil life
He is not vet an old man ,andhis op-

began his army career as surgeon

of Santiago. and civil governor OF
that province and military governor
of the island of Cuba. These are
but few of his activities, which

The shed con tained seven sacks of coal which is just now a decidedly scarce and vaIu- able commodity, but the burglars left one behind, either through being frightened away, or with the intention of returning for it. The shotgun was the only other article known to have been taken. The coal was carried a. way in hand sled, the marks of which have been traced for a considerable distance by the authorities who are now Investigating the case.

CONSERVATION OF SALMON

People waste a good deal of time and effort in discussing the question as to whether the purse seiners or the salmon traps are more respons ible for the depletion of the salmon supply of Alaska. It would seem to be very plain to any person that the depletion of the salmon supply is a question involving the quantity of fish taken out of the waters rather than of how they are taken out. The salmon runs in Alaska waters are capable of yielding a certain amount of salmon for food without causing danger to the perpetuity of the fish cries industry. If more than that much are taken, the supply for future years is put in jeopardy. There is uo system of catching fish whereby a certain percentage of fish can be taken from the water that would in- crease the number of fish that remain in the water beyond the number that would remain if the same percentage of the fish were caught in some other manner.
 To argue that fish may be taken by purse seiners without jeopardizing the supply while if the fish were caught in traps it would jeopardize the supply is a good deal like con tending that it would increase the  water supply in cases where the acres to be irrigated are too many for the water that runs in a stream if the have the water carried to their fields in buckets instead of ditches. To force the adoption of a more costly method of doing a work is not a scientific way to conserve the sup ply of raw material. It would be just as reasonable to compel the owners of placer gold ground to wash out their gold by the old banning process in order to prolong the oper- ations as to ask those engaged in any other industry to abstain from 5.
 If too many fish are being taken out of the waters of Alaska to per init the perpetuation of the supply of salmon then the number taken out should be curtailed The whole case, in nutshell, is to adopt such regula- tions as will permit the proper num- Der of fish to reach the spawning grounds. This may be done in several ways or by combination of several methods of procedure. The number of fish to be taken could be limited by an expert commission; there could be provided an ample closed season; district of sections of the fish inhabit- cd waters could be closed to any sort of fishing for one or more seasons; the supply of naturally produced sal mon could be augmented by scientifi- cally conducted artificial propagation. An informed commission might adopt many methods of conserving the fish that would not add to the cost of those taken from the waters
 If the method of catching the fish is to be used to regulate the number of fish taken both trapping and sein- ing could be stopped. A certain way of reducing the number of fish taken would be to require fishermen to put salt on the tails of the salmon as they swim iu the water and then catch them by hand.-Juneau Empire.

THE RAILROAD SITUATION

The railroad situation is involved in maze of complications almost as desperate as the state of international relations. There. are so many powers to be consulted, so much speech-mak- ing to be done, so much antagonism to be overcome, and such a division of authority that the proceedings are interminable.
 The dead hand of wartime regu- lation and control still grips rail- road arrangements.

threatening another general railway strike
 State and national regulation of our transportation system and labor un- ion control is on trial. The. public has been long suffering but is slowly coming to the conclusion that the net result of the last ten years of political meddling with the nations railways is largely to blame for the present plight of our great carriers and many industries. In the theory the roads have been under private management, actually they have been bound hand and foot, with political red tape.
 Privately managed business of every description in this nation has gone ahead and been able to expand and meet the needs of the country, but it has not been hampered at every turn as have the railroads.
 Political mismanagement and in reference for the past ten years has to large extent strangled for the railroad development of half a cen tury and prevented the normal growth of the carriers to meet the needs of the country.
 Granting that abuse of power by few railroads brought about their regulation-abuse of power by regula- tion has very nearly brought about their destruction.
 The stage is being set to complete ly wreck our transportation system in order to turn it over to the advo, cates of government ownership and load the billions of indebtedness and growing deficits onto the overbur- dened taxpayers.
 Oneaof the most prominent timber men and heaviest shipper in the northwest goes so far as to say, q would wipe out the interstate con- merCe commission and national labor board and turn the railroads back to real private management. I would protect the public with simple laws against relating and special rates for a privileged few. Then I would tell the roads to get busy and cooperate with industries, build up business and manage their own affairs subject to the law of the land and decisions of our courts. Competition and the law of supply and demand would regulate rates and wages as in any other busi- ness. The net results of our present system of political regulation has been a detriment instead of a bene- fit to industry and it's cost a fortune to go to Washington and make a showing on a rate question before of railroading that is raising hell with the commission. It's politics instead Us today"
 Railroad regulation to raise artifi- clal wages and then raise rates to pay them, can force the public to pay If 1t rides-but it cant force the pub lie to ride. This is the real point at issue and unless the railroads are very soon released from their arti, ficial burdens and allowed to run their own affairs, railroad labor will go down in the Waterloo of railroad bankruptcy which will entail disaster for all industrial activity.
 Freight rates of the future, and wages of the future, must be based upon the buying power of the nation to consume the articles made avail able by these point agencies. Capital may remain out of use but workers must be employed and railoads and industries must be operated else the one starves and the other decays.

Neither Yanks Nor Giants

NEW YORK, July 1l.--Baseban

has faltered against the weaker

Yankees on the present road trip at
Chicago-they have lost three
straight games TO the White Sox--
recalls the experience of Miller
