ALASKAN AFFAIRS

Sometimes the people of Alaska would seem justified in saying with Artemus Ward, We are governed 2 mutch." The territory has never suf- fered from any dearth of federal reg ulations from the days of Steward s Folly" down to our own time. There is happy medium between the con- temptuous neglect of sixty years ago and the excessive bureaucratic pater- nalism of the present. It is not more red tape that is wanted where the darkened fifties dip to the north. " It is a rational scientific manage ment which avoids overlapping jur- isdiction and allows of the proper use of capital in promoting industry, while curbing the activities of the profiteer.
 In the fifteen years from 1903 to 1918 the value of Alaska's exports grew from twelve to seventy-fiye mil lion dollars. The natural resources except for gold, are still for the most part in the pioneer stage of develop ment. Alaska is to be incalculably more valuable in the future.
 Charles F. Curry, chairman of the house committee which has to deal with Alaska, is right in his insis- tence on the enormous importance Of a rational scheme for dealing with such vast and multiplied interests as Alaska represents.-Ketchikan Chron- icle.

 Some bits of her quaint philosophy arc very amusing. for instance.
 "Just be- glad chats the game"
 "i can be glad there isn't any look. ing glass, cause where there Isn't any glass | can't see my freckles"
 And you didn't break but one leg! You can be glad it wasn't two"
 "Irs just lovely Co play the glad game. sometimes it isn't easy. but there's SO much more fun when it's hard"
 When you're hunting for the glad things, you sort of forget about tho other kind"
 Anyhow, you can be glad, for when I'm talking you don't have to-"
 There's nothing about a funeral to be glad about, except that We can be glad 'tain't our'n"
 Two shows tonight, 7:3O and 9 o'clock, SO that everyone can make the acquaintance of this winsome glad girl" and get pointers first hand on how to start het the New Year right.

And that is just where he learned it,-among the great for ests of the northwest, where Bill is supposed to be a lumber boss when the action of John Petticoats" be- gins.
 But he receives a letter stating that he has inherited a "MOdiste Shop" in New Orleans. Now John" doesn't know @ "modiste" shop from a bugg wagon, and it's a far cry from the northern timberlands to New Or leans, but John is game and he starts off to inspect his new possession.

NO ENTANCLINC LEAGUE WILL
 BE ENDORSED

tContlnued from Page OneJ
 whole matter wIu go over Co tho next congress- In that congress nothing win be heard of the league But the treaty with Germany and Austria will have to be considered lu that congress- This win take the form of a new treaty or new treat. ies with which Of course the Wilson administration win have nothing Co do lt is expected that early in Che March special session of the next congress a treaty win be made with Austria and Germany declaring the technical state of war which stiu exists between these countries and the United States at an end. That will be about all that will be done
 It is possible that the league will be revived in the March session un. der some other name, such as an Association of Nations,' as suggest, ed by Mir Harding during the cam paign. But an association" is far from the Wilson League of Nations. No matter how feeble and impotent any future Association" is that may be proposed by Mir. Harding, the senate in all probability will have none of it. After the narrow escape of len the United States with European nations with the League of Nations the senate wants nothing to do with any similar arrange ments. That much is certain. Even Democratic senators who under the whip of the Wilson administration felt forced, as a party matter, to support the original league, now want nothing to do with any sim liar proposal.
 The matter will therefore in all probability simmer down to this: No more will be heard of any league or association. But the March ses- sion of the next congress will pass the resolution for peace with Ger many and Austria, and that will final Iy end the participation of the Uni ted States in the great war.

START THE NEW YEAR RIGHT

Drop into Mayor Adams office and hand him your share for the fund which Herbert Hoover is using to save the lives of starving babies in Europe. One dollar will feed a youngster for a month.
 There is no graft connected with this fund. No salaries are paid to those raising or distributing money. Every cent goes straight for the use for which it is given.
 The best efficiency experts in the world are giving their entire time and much of their funds to save these children.
 The dollar or two you give means no sacrifice to you but means a baby's life.
 DO IT TODAY.

HOW TO TREAT YOUR TOWN

Praise it.
 Improve it.
 Talk about it.
 Trade at home.
 Take a home pride in it. Be philosophical.
 Tell of it's business men. Remember it is your home. Trade and induce others to trade here.
 When strangers come to town use them well.
 Don't call your best citizens frauds and impostors.
 Look ahead of self when all the town is to be considered
 Help the public officers do the most people.
 Don't advertise in the local paper ito help the editor" but advertise to help yourself.

Happy New Year'
 When the future looks dark. light up your face!
 Revenge may be sweet. but the al. ter effects are bitter
 Troubles are like rabbits give them free range and they multiply rapidly.
 It ls no lougor good taste Co have a bod taste in your mouth the next morning.
 What on first glimpse seems to be sterling virtues often prove to be only silver plated.
 The man who has cold all winter long always has plenty of cures for others colds
 The charity that covers a multi tude of sins sometimes uneovers a multitudes of miseries.
 If you talk much. prepare to be lonely; but if you listen much you will always have company.
 Stop pursuing happiness and it will wait for you. Then you find that its name is Love-for your job.
 A very young man thinks women are tickle and grieves over it; an older one knows it and laughs over it.
 The man who would "rather fight than eat" generally does not feel so much like eating after the fighting is over.
 Every town contains a certain num- Der of men who live better than the average. and whose source of income nobody can find out
 If you analyze your conduct at the end of the day and discover you've been absolutely truthful half the time, your average is pretty fair,
 Where do all the speakers come from who have great messages to deliver to the community and what becomes of them and their messages? |?
 If your friends flatter you, that doesn't mean anything because friends are supposed to do that, but if your enemies knock you that means you amount to something or they wouldn't take the time to do 1t.
 Music has peculiar charm. It soothes both man and beast. The tiger purrs to her young and they are con tented, the bird sings to her chicks and they chirp their happiness, the widest savage has a weird tattoo that comforts, and civilized man forgets his cares under the influence of musi-. cal harmony.

The Cordova daily times., 1921-01-01

The removal of the accounting of flee from Nenana may mean that spot-cash payments will cease there from the government to the people of Nenana Town, and the club con- siders that such action proves that Commissioner Mears and Engineer Browne are incompetent, irrevelant and immaterial, and that the Nenana commercial club should be given complete management of the railway and do all the construction work and spend all the money within the bounds of the townsite of Nenana and 1t will be interesting to see them bring the entire government forces Gall out of step) to the clubs way of nking.-Fairbank News Miner.
