dazzling distinction, the glaciation, the drainage, the relation of each part to the other revealed. The snow covered tops of the remoter peaks, dwindling and fading, rose to our view as tho floating in thin air when their bases were hidden by the haze, the whole Alaskan range exhibited itself from Denali to the sea. To the right hand the glittering, tiny threads of streams draining the mountain range into the Chulitna and Sushitna Rivers, and so to Cook Inlet and the Pacific Ocean, spread themselves out to tn cleft tn eaffluents of the Kan tishna and the Nenana drained the range into the mighty Yukon and Boring Sea-"
 Such is the history of the conquest of the highest mountain in North America. Alaskans are proud that the first to scale it's lofty peak were sourdoughs. Few will ever gaze upon that wonderful panorama described by Stuck, but many coming to enjoy the great national park surrounding Mt. Mckinley will stand in awe of this great mountain and go away feeling new sense of proportions, for they have gazed upon the handi work of the Omnipotent Creator.

The story of this wonder full experience has been graphically told by the Archdeacon in his book, "The Ascent of Denali." Stuck pre- ferred to call the mountain by it's Indian name This book is we'll writ ten and illustrated and should be read by all before coming to the huge mountain It's awfulness and gran deur may then be better appreciated.
 The final dash for the summit and the description of the view obtained, as told by Stuck is as follows: With keen excitement we pushed on. Wal | ter, who had been in the lead all day, was the first to scramble up; native Alaskan, he was the first human being to set foot upon the top of Alaska's great mountain, and he we'll earned the lifelong distinction Karstens and Tatum were hard upon his heels, but the last man on the rope, in his enthusiasm and excite ment somewhat overpassing his mar row wind margin, had almost to be hauled up the last few feet, and fell unconscious for a moment upon the floor of the little snow basin that occupies the top of the mountain.
 "So soon as wind was recovered we shook hands all around and briet prayer of thanksgiving to Almighty God was said, that He had granted us our hearts desire and brought us safely to the top of His great noun | tain.
 "The scientific work accomplished then, and not till then did we indulge ourselves in the wonderful prospect that stretched around US.

Immediately be fore us in the direction we lad climb ed lay nothing, void a sheer gull many thousands of feet deep. Across the gulf, about three thousand feet beneath us and fifteen or twenty miles away, sprang most splendidly into view the great m iss of Denali's wife, of Mt Foraker, as some white men misname her, filling majestically all the middle distance. And never was nobler sight displayed to mar than that great, iso'a'.:l mountain spread out completely, with all its spurs and ridges, it's cliffs and its | glaciers, lofty and mighty and yet 1 far beneath Us.

SEWARD WILL SEE SEASON OF 1925 PROSPEROUS ONE

That next year will be one of the most prosperous ever experienced by Seward is shown by the many en- quilies received here by parties in tending to locate. The pulp mill is an assured fact and by this time next month the work may have been start ed. There is no question but that a new cold storage plant will be located here by spring, and several new busi- ness blocks are planned. Much ac- tivity will take place in the woods around Seward this winter, several large tie camps operating in this vic- inity, and the ties from Prince Will liam Sound camps being unloaded in Seward.
 Prospective investors need have no hesitation in pinning their faith on Seward. We look for a very pros porous winter and spring.

The longest train-load of shingles

Northern Railway on its journey to
the Twin Cities and eastern markets.
The train consisted of 125 freight
cars, measuring more than a mile in
1t required three of the Great
Northern railways mammoth noun
tain type oil burning engines to haul
this remarkable consignment Of roof
ing material. There are enough
shingles in this lot to roof the houses
Of a town of 10000 people. The train
attracted considerable attention en-

Of its movement for use in the news

SOME THINGS THAT

Roosevelt County independently

pendent promoters have been waiting
for the end of the county seat fight
before Incorporating a company, and
move with the county seat if it goes
to Wolf Point.
"Now comes the information from
various sources that Charlie (Jerome)
is going to greener fields if the
printing contract is not continued re-
gardless of where the county seat
will be-and it is a cinch it will not
be-for even if Charlie and the foxy
Won Hindie should elect their mar to

heelers" will do exactly what Won
Hindie and the retiring member did
Just before Mr.. Young took his seat,

The tariff does not NAV tbe -
Portant part usually assigned to it at
Democratic conventions. 1t is a fore
gone conclusion that the factionaI
struggle VIII make it necessary for
tne party to ''straddle" several
planks. Nobody doubts that the Mat.
form as it is finally written. will he
rate the Republican Administra+ion
IN general, including a strong denun
clatlon for its part in the oil Schedules
ana a broad indictment for other al
ieged shortcomings. The committee
on resolutions has no easv or env;-
able task in rewriting the mass If
suggestions. The leaders r-ecooni7a
the need for a unifying force to weld
the various groups of the Democratic
party INTO a fighting organization and
undoubtedly the platform will be con-
sidered accordingly.
1t IS an easy prediction that the
convention will close when the funds
OF the delegates are at a low ebb
Many OF the delegates profess to note
gains in the Democratic party
through the fiasco of the farm labor
convention at st. Paul, last week.
when the Communist element domi-
mated the ticket and many of the
farmer delegates withdrew. 1t is evil
lent that the minor political parties
IRE no better off in so far as harmony
concerned, than the so-called major

shatter out. Therefore, greater care
must be taken in harvesting.
Only in extreme seasons on bench
land, does it pay to save the first
crop for seed, if the first hay crop
is taken off at the right time. Then
too, cutting the first crops for hay,
clips off the weeds, making the seed
crop much cleaner, and a better grade
of seed is produced.
Growers of alfalfa should plan
their operations so as to take advan-
tage of the valuable seed crop, when
the opportunity affords.-Murray E..

Beware of Self Termed
Civil Service Schools"

Washington, D. c., June %, 1924.
The United States Civil Service
Commission and the National Vigil
lance Committee of the Associated
Advertising Clubs of the World today
issued a joint warning against mis-
leading advertising of many so-called
civil-service coaching schools. The
following points are emphasized:
(1)=No school" of this kind has
any connection whatever with the
Civil Service Commission or with any
other branch of the Government.
(2)-No school can give advance
information regarding examination
questions.
~ No school IAN furnish civil
service information of value which
can not be obtained without cost
from the Civil Service Commission
at Washington or its representative
at the post office or customhouse in
any Of approximately $500 cities.
(4) No school can guarantee
appointment in the classified civil
service. Appointment can be secured
only through open competitive ex-
aminations under the civil-service
No school can cause a compe-
to be certified for appointment
out of the regular order, as deter
mined by his examination rating.
The Civil Service Commission states
that large numbers of applications
'or examination received at its office
Indicate that many ~civil-service

Who could not possibly pass any kind

E. |. Mckinley, deputy labor com
missioner of Arkansas, it is said in
he joint warning, recently has inves-
correspondence schools of
class and authorizes the state
nent that he has concluded that the
of them come as near be-
ng "fakes," as the postal laws per-
ait. The schools" that Mr.. McKin-
ey condemns are the mes that offer

ons rank second to detective
in number.
