A'NoN-PARTIsAN NEWSPAPER
Past and Present War
IndemnitieS

In the matter of war in
IDENTITIES, which seem to be
a topic of general interest
Just now while France is ma
kidg an attempt to collect
her portion of the huge one
of $33, 100000 imposed on
Germany at the close of the
European war, it is a refresh
ing thought to remember
that the conduct of the Uni
ted States has been gener-
Gus in this respect through
out all her victorious wars.
After the war with Mexico
we paid that country for the
territory occupied and re-
tanned, and after the war
with Spain in 1898 we paid
Spain $40, 900, for it's
property in the Philippines.
1t was the same with the
Boxer indemnity exacted
from China in 1900, the Uni
ted States remitting its share
of this indemnity, a gener-
osity not displayed by any
of the European nations con-
cerned.
No doubt France we'll re-
members the billion dollar
indemnity she paid to Ger
many after the war Of 1870
Il, which history does not
tell us that Germany was a
bit backward about accept

Sandy nodded.

The girl handed an ak to Sandy

She stopped. taking hold of wrin-

of them and she shook the salt water
from her eyes impatiently as if she
had faced tragedy before and knew
1t must be looked at calmly.
The two men adjusted the powders
they had set for fulcrums and showed
down on the stout pieces of ash, their
muscles punching. the veins standing
out corded OH their arms. The
wagon-bed creaked, lifted a little.
"Now," grunted Sandy. "snake him

from beneath the table.
To add to the acting, he playfully
pointed at the little gypsy" pistol
that he had picked up from dresser.
There was a shot. The child fell
When police came grandpa was
holding Emma, the "little gypsy" In
his arms. She was dead.
The man standing by the grave saw
the drama again, and he saw grandpa
as he had been since that day-lonely
brooding, thoughtful
Even day or two ago grandpa had
glanced in the windows of toy shops
more than ordinarily rich with gifts
for youngsters.
Then the man by the grave saw
grandpa leaving the house for q
visit to Greenlawn cemetery"
And Charles Fuchs, with a detec-

the grave, leaned over and softly
touched his fathers cold hand.

message of his will along the nerves

End of an Old Graft

the seeds to make himself
solid with the folks back
home, and who has burdened
the mail by sending them to
people who had absolutely
no use or desire for them.
will now have to hunt a new
graft. The way congress
men used the free seeds
meant a waste--of thousands
OF dollars a year. But it
served as a sort of vote
getter and friendship maker
for some of them, and that
was what they needed. The

Great Benefits Anticipated
From The Alaskan Railroad

and not only provides the rest OF
Alaska with fuel cheaper than can
be imported. but may some day make
them an important source for the ma
ton.
The fisheries, timber industry and
demonstrating in Alaska's rich agri-
cultural districts will all be benefited
through better transportation and
cheaper rates on food and clothing.
While the interior has heretofore
been locked in tightly in winter ex-
cept to sleds, the railroad will pro-
vide a ready exit to open water TO
the south during the entire year.
While the climate was one of the
most formidable obstacles to con-
struction, others as difficult were met
and overcome. Even the winter freez-
ing of the rivers was put to advant-
age to facilitate bridge construction.
The thick ice was utilized to bear
much of the false work.
Three long bridges were built. The
first, across the Susitna River at Gold
Creek. is a 500 feet span that cost
approximately $943.000 The Hurri-
cane Gulch bridge, buttressed against
the rocky canyon walls, is 800 feet
atove the stream and has a span OF
$50 feet. The Nenana bridge, which
is just being completed. spans the

WASHINGTON, Apr. 2T.--With the
addition of a few last touches on a
large steel fridge over the Tanana
River at Nenana. Alaska. the govern
ment will practically complete the
second largest construction job il has
ever undertaken. This is the Alaska
Railroad. which has cost approxi-
mately S56.000.000, was eight years
in building, and which runs 467 miles
into the heart of the territory from
Seward, on Resurrection Bay, 10
Fairbanks, on the Tanana. BY the
end of June the construction force
will lay down tools for the last time
Trains are running the entire length
of the road and have been for about
is months
What the road will mean to Alaska
and its people. government officials
hesitate TO say. The returns will be
immense. The development of the
territory's mineral resources and ag-
ricultural possibilities resulting from
completion of a successful artery
connecting with the outside world the
entire year round, is teyond COM
pute.
Annual revenues from freight and
passengers already exceed 1889 .000
and as traffic increases with compile
ton engineers see a revenue of al
most million dollars annually.
While Alaska is casually thought
OF as land of gold and ice, its min
eral production has been only a por-
ton OF its resources. Coal also is
found extensively. as we'll as the
slightly less valuable Ignite; gas and
oil have been discovered, and devel.

VICKERS FINDS SEED
OYSTERS ARE LAWFUL.


II regard TO the claim made by
Capt. W c. Willing. an FISHERMAN of
Shady Side. Nd. that the boats OF the
tongers in West river are not inspect
ed frequently, Mr.. Vickers said he
doubted whether this was so.
The deputy commanders may occa-
sionally miss boatload of oysters be-
cause they have so much territory to
cover, but ] doubt whether it happens
often" he stated.
He expressed the belief that his
suggestion that the State take ever all
oyster shells for replanting is the
cause of considerable criticism of his
department by oystermen who now
sell the shells for to cents a
bushel.
