MAYO BROTHERS NOW
 LOCATED IN SEATTLE

Wm. Wagner, pioneer of the '9S period, now in the fox business in Prince William Sound, who recently returned from the States where he went to receive treatment at Mayo Bros, states that he received a thorc diagnosis, and was later refrred to the new Mayo Bros. Polyclinic at Sc attle, located in the American Bank Building, Second and Madison streets. Mr. Wagner in writing to Seward friend states that this will prove a great convenience to AlaSkanS, and save them the expense of the long trip to Rochester, as the clinic has a staff of six doctors and one of the best X-ray laboratories in the west. Dr Ristine, one of the staff, was with the Mayos for two years, and the remain der of the staff are specialists. MT Wagner states that he was informed at the Rochester institution that as thorough a diagnosis could he had at Seattle as was possible in the Roches- ter hospital.
 Wagner wrote that he killed ninety five this year and the belts were sold in London, averaging $105 per skin. The price was very satisfactory.

Ruhr Rail Strike Ended.

1t remains to be seen how much the
French will gain from the ending of
the railway workers strike in the
Ruhr. The moral victory is on the side
of the French, for it denotes Nature
of one of the German measures of re-
slstance. but so far as is now apparent
the practical effects will rebound to
trains will move again and the specter
OF starvation will be removed. This
may serve to stiffen the opposition OF
the inhabitants TO the occupying
forces, but il certainly-will relieve the
French from an embarrassing predica-
mcnt. Starvation Of the Ruhr people
was not part of their program, but
the spectacle of women and children
hunsering was bound TO react in world
sentiment in some measure to the dis
advantage of France. The French
were being placed in much the same
position as that into which the British
government was forced when Irish
political prisoners went on hunger
strikes"
How ending Of the rail strike will
affect the movement Of coal, around
which the entire Ruhr problem re-
wolves, remains to be seen. The en-
barge against shipment of fuel into
unoccupied Germany has not been re-
moved, and French soldiers Will con-
tlnue TO halt coal trains at the border.
M, ~, -
strikers will not willingly transport
coal to the French border for ship
ment into France on reparations ac-
count, so the coal deadlock, all sur
face appearances Indicate, remains un-
broken. But ii would be a most sur
prising thing if the French authori-
ties were willing to let it rest there.
Both France and unoccupied Germany
are desperately in need of coal, but it
is situation in which the trump card
is in the hands of France. If the Ger
man railway workers will transport
coal for shipment into France, unoccu-
pied Germany can have the surplus
product Of the Ruhr mines. If the
Germans persist in cutting off their
own noses to spite their faces, un-
doubtedly France is in position to hold
out the longer.
Return of the rail workers marks a
partial surrender of the Germans to
the French program, but out Of this
surrender the Germans will derive a
minimum of profit. The Ruhr will be
fed, but unoccupied Germany will get
no coal. The common sense thing for
Berlin to do would be to compromise
on coal shipments, but to do that
would mark the beginning of the end
Of Germanys passive" resistance. So
1t is to be assumed that Germany will
hold out a while longer, but time and
psychology are working for the
French, and the next break is likely to
be more decisively in their favor.

THE WAYS OF WASHINGTON
BY WILLIAM PICKETT HELM.

This workaday world in which we
live is a place built up with dreams
come true.
But yesterday we dreamed Of wings
and today we hear the droning of the
planes overhead. We dreamed of
voices in the air, carrying our words
to far distant places, and today the
air is vibrant with voices. We dream
ed of coaches that should run without
horses, and awaking we count more
than twelve millions of such coaches
on our roadways.
These are some of the dreams Of
other days. Each one came true be-
cause some dreamer dreamed-and
wrought. But what Of the dreams of
today? will they come true tomor-
row?

Upon what far distant star is their
gaze fixed? Whittier speeds America?

and question marks into the busy
