CEMENT PRICE CUT
 OF 25 CENTS MADE
Southern Builders To Be Saved Half Million Yearly
 By Reduction


 Southern builders will be saved half a million dollars yearly by the acton of the Atlas Portland Cement company, announced Friday, in re- ducing it's price on cement 26 cents per barrel.
 The reduction is made, not because Of market conditions, which are ex- cellent, nor any Influence of the law of supply and demand. but simply because the company has found it possible to reduce the cost of produc- tion of its product, according to D. R. Long, southern sales manager, who made the announcement.
 The company, whose southern plant is at Leeds. is running night and day, to fill orders accustomed by con tinued heavy demand due to building construction, which gives no indica- tion of slowing up until midwinter, if then The Atlas company will ship about 250,000 barrels of cement between now and the first of Janu- ary and the reduction in price on this quantity will total S62,500, in addi- tion to reductions under previous contracts. by reason of which buyers for future delivery get the advantage of the market decline. The total consumption of cement in the south for the rest of this year will exceed 2,000, 900 barrels, and, since the price of all companies will be brought down in competition with the Atlas, the reduction means $500 900 saving to builders.
 Our announcement of voluntary price reduction when business is booming may seem odd" said Mir. Long. but it is not due to any of the usual reasons the law of supply and demand doesn't enter into. We have found it possible to reduce the cost of production at Leeds and we are giving buyers the benefit of it. We are running 24 hours day 10 fill orders.'
 Besides the plant at Leeds. the com pany has mills at Hudson, N. Y, Northampton. Pa, Hannibal, Mo, and | Independence, Kas.

Ushering in New Epoch.
{ (Anchora ge Tim es.)

The arrival in Anchorage of those comprising the working staff of the motion picture industry marks another chapter in Alaskan development. Who would have thought half dczen years that the Ter ritory would have advanced to the point where it onger became the hunting ground for cut-ins for motion pictures, but actually the center of what promises to become great industry serving not only advertisement and of revenue, but in heralding to the world that the empire of the north is no longer mo mans land,' but entity in the family of American nations developing it's ewn arts and sciences?
 Each epoch has had it's stage, which reflected the aims, ambitions and culture of the age. Ben John son, Shakespeare, Marlowe Ford and Wycherlel gave 10 the world mediums Of reflection whereby future generations might the spirit of the people in those days succession of extremes supplied images to be set as milestone in human progress whether worst portrayed.
 It was not until after the hectic the Re- storation had receded and America came into being that new images and ideas offered to the poet and playwright Hence America may be said to have been the gensis of the epoch.
 The moct beautiful and inspiring themes having originated amidst pioneer conditions, which to keep alive the most wholesome traditions, it is but natural that Alaska, being the last frCnieT should offer prolific field for the artist Here the highest development of the human impulse is still evidence where man is shielded from the gaudy negations that influence human character in older centuries.
 Generous patronage of that style of play that appeals to the human interest serves to prove that an amusement loving public is willing to wander far astray from these elevating influences, hence the limitlcss storchouee of material awaiting the producer in Alaska.
 The importance of the local motion picture in- dustry may bet be gauged by observing how grad ually but firmly the arts sciences are becoming rooted in Alaska and how naturally the Territory is ascending to the threshold of statehood

CRITICISING THE COURTS.

The criticism of the Courts, in a communication frem Mr Harris appearing in another column, for not imposing sentences canneres violating the fisheries laws and regulations couched in general terms. It seems 10 be a custom to gcneralize in matters of this kind, and people accept the criticism it's face without investigation Readers should met do this They should remember that the Courts which impose the sentences have the facts of each presented to them, and they are supposed to judgment in each instance in accordance with these facts and the law We do not believe that people seriously believe that Judge Reed Judge Jennings Judge Lyons, Judge sunnison the others have winked at law violation The standing of these is too high to permit of their conviction in the public mind general prn- ciples testimony mere assertion.
 These criticisms of Mr. Harris They have been made often, particularly by ofce-seekers and politicians. They have been made here and at Washington. Recently at hearing the White Bill. knowing perhaps that lawyers who have become Congressmen sometimes yet lawyers and may insist upon something definite than generaliza- tons when sworn Judges attacked witnesses toned specific which they represented to be the amounts of maximum fines imposed companies convicted of illegal fishing. But the record shows they did not know msrepresented.

GOVERNMENT BY ENDOWED
 SECRETARIES.

In discussing the Nelson game jaw the other day Delegate Sutherland said it must be realized that Eastern game conservation clubs, like the Boone and Crockett and Camp Fire Clubs dictate game lcgsla- tion only fer Ala ka but all the United States Mr Sutherland said that he personally favor cd Territorial of the of Alaska, but that the Nelson Bill is the best that can be secured, per uniting inference that is best because it is the best the Eastern clubs will permit.
 Unfortunately MT. Sutherland is correct Yet if full Territorial form of government measure were presented 10 Congress and considered by the Senate and House Committees Territories, it is likely that they would. following the precedents Of a tury give the Territory the power that MT Suther- land gays he would have it exercise But that is not the point of this comment.
 One of the dangers that confront self government in the United States is the influence of organizations formed spcnsor propaganda for this and against that. Many of these associations clubs endowed and the result of the organizing and financial ability of ambitious looking for easy jobs man has hobby CT sees main chance, and goes out and ganzes society basis that will give him easy job with good salary Thence proceeds propagan da of an apparent sentiment in favor of it's objects The n4eN.tbng.iss the formation of bureau and an ap- ropriaticn, and that means organization to lobby for more and larger appropriations constantly onlarging scope of authority etc
 Organizations similar to those which Mir Suther- land says control the game laws of the country are breeding pools fer bureaus bocs treasury raid ers They are responsible for loading thousands of taxeatere upon the backs to the producers of the United States, and for adding hundreds of millions to the expense Of government in the country
 High cost of government is responsible for high taxes and lack of producers and for the high cost of living. The United States needs at this time more than anything else less government lower taxes lower tariffs, more business and another Grover Cleveland to get them

The Ultimate Consumer Pays.

 Ncne of our high protective friends, appfe hend, will presume at this time to deny that the Fordncy- -McCumber tariff bill has any influence upon the mounting price of This necessary come stibles cost is nearing that of the wartime peak although there is no shortage No world disturbance naturally and logically to produce such result.
 When the bill before the Congress it was extensively predicted that the proposed schedule finally adopted would result in the advance in the cost of sugar to the people of the United States and that the increase in the would be the determin- ing factor. The prediction has pass exactly made
 The protective theory has demonstrated itself magnihcently. The sugar industry is prosperous wonderfully so! But the bills being pad not by the foreigner but by the 12O,00O,O 900 people who uae sugar as food This is said because the cial reports tell of the sale raw sugar in Cuba with the purchaser assuming the cost freight insurance and tariff These eventually are transferred to the ultimate consumer whose every spoonful is taxed
