THE PROMISE OF PUBLICITY.

The promise of newspaper men throughout the country work with Gov. Scott c. Bone in his eff forts to advance welfare of Alaska lis matter of great importance to this Territory. Publicity is a wonderful motive power. Let the facts be known and the remedy usually follows. Let the people of the Nation know the real truth concerning Alaska and political problems will be less difficult of solution
 the bare statement of this obvious fact car Iies with it the suggestion that publicity should be given to facts only. Alaska has had too much pub iicity the wrong There time when the Pinchottes, faddists muckrakers and unresponsibe politicians had the public and they got Alaska so helpessy tied that it has taken decade to undo in part the things they did to the Territory.
 But have every assurance that in the publicity that will be inspired by the level vision and sane judgment of Gov. Bone shall have different sort than that promulgated by the sensational self-pro- noting agitators of dozen years and those who sought to utilize the commoon they created for per sonal aggrandizement. .ts.

Tariff Taxes on National Defense.
(Boston News Bureau )


 After giving out the tariff bill with oil the free list the measure is recalled and by vote of ma jority of the committee inserts tax of 25 and N35 cents barrel oil imports
 The first act of administration to pay $25 900 900 the United States of Colombia for good will and the only explanation that be found in the Congressional Record of the Senate debate is that Columbia is full of oil which other nations likely but which the United States will very much need in the future.
 The previous administration refused to protect American oil interests in Mexico but this admnstra- tion is reform administration is business ad- ministration and is going to look for national defense and American oil supplies in foreign countries and both these matters naturally allied
 If consistency is to be jewel in this admnistra- tion cannot have State Department demanding of Mexico protection to American oil interests and the army and navy departments clamoring for oil from Mexico, Colombia and Mesopotamia while the reve- nue departments of the government put prohibtise tax on oil imports, and force the most valuable oil fields owned entirely by Americans over to foreign interests.
 American pioneers did for Mexico than all the missionaries the United States has into it's borders. They opened up it's underground wealth and brought it forth in the service of They have been the object of attack to be expected in foreign countries. They have been refused protec- ton under American treaties which guaranteed pro lection and they are to be confscated by Mexi- can taxes and shunted out of their country by United States Colombia gets $25 5000 GOA for good will and oil-in prospect If there is goal that the United States a manufacturing nation has looked forward to, has been the goal of free materials when infant industries have been fully established.

 Free materials and free mineral resources are both foundations and measures of posperty in modern civilization.

history OF the Peruvian Mummies.

artisans. Their pottery is unsur-
passed even today in its type and
their work in gold and copper chal-
lenges the modern craftsman. Unlike
the Egyptians. the Peruvians used no
process of embalming. but so dry
were the sands of certain of their
deserts that the dry bodies with their
wrapplngs around them, have been
preserved perfectly to this day with
the objects placed around them.

waste, no evidence OF occupation is
seen on the surface. Even when the
first Spanish cohquerer passed this
way in 1888 every vestage OF human
occupation had entirely disappeared
and the location of the town was
quite forgotten. 1t was not until
about seventy years ago that the first
graves were discovered and for half a
century they have yielded fortunes to
treasure seekers who despoiled them
to recover the golden ornaments left
beside the bodies.

ties in style, adornment. manners and
industries to those OF the present gen

TYPHOID IN, STATE 'qll'
SHOWS BIG INCREASE

During August. 1920, there were IS
cases of typhoid fever reported to the
State Department of Health from the
counties; last month there were 33s
cases reported.
The health authorities are at loss
TO adequately explain this increase
though the mild winter and early
spring are considered favorable to the
dissemination of the disease. No one
area of the State seems to be espe-
cially affected.
The number OF cases of malaria re-
ported from the counties last month
is also far in excess of the number
reported during the corresponding
month of last year. In August, 1920
20 cases were reported, and in the
whole year only $50 cases. Last
month alone there were 1873 cases re-
ported The malaria, unlike typhoid
is largely localized, however. One
hundred and fifteen of the cases are
reported from Wicomico eounty-Sal-
isbury and vicinity
