to the coming struggle.

the country urging that they be per-
mitted to take an active part on one
side or the other. Judge John T.
Raulston also reported a lombard
ment of communications, many of

of the letters he read, but others were
so incoherent and illegible that he
bundled them together and placed

the case was about to be lost sight of.
explaining that the question involved
was the validity of the Tennessee law

The questions involved in such
affair." he declared, are manifestly
for thinkers and sane. sincere and
loyal Americans. The lineup certain

tolerance
In a statement to newspaper men

conflict between science and religion.
Scopes application for his old posi-
ton as teacher in the Rhea County
High School next term will not be

VANCOUVER, British Columbia,
June 1S.-The small army of
stampeders that went over the
snow to beat others in the gold
rush to the Dease Lake country in
British Columbia is hitting the trail
again on the return with their for
tunes still to be made, reports Miss
Mary Wolverton, who visisted
Dease Lake.
Very little gold has been found
she said. Three experienced gold
miners went into the Gold Pan
Creek, diverted the stream, and at
the expense of two months labor
took out S1.60 in gold.
The only real money that has
been made is by those who have
sold claims on the creek for hun
dreds of dollars.

 IN CABIN ON THE DiETNA
(F'rom KuskO Times)

The body of Ralph Smith, a pros pector, we'll known to the people of the Ophir section, was found in front of his cabin on the banks of the Diet na river on May 23, by Carl Johnson, prospector, who arrived at Ophir in June.
 Johnson went to Smiths cabin on May 23, but not finding Smith at his upper tent started down to his cabin. He found Smiths body lying not many feet outside the door. His clothing had been torn and his lower limbs gnawed by his dogs.
 He made no further search of the premises but covering the body with tarp, left for Fairview, where he tried to get someone to go back to the scene. Failing in this he mushed to Ophir where he laid the facts be- fore Commissioner Bolgen.
 It is reported that Smith before coming to Alaska, about four years ago, resided in Tacoma, where it is understood his father and other rela- tives reside. He was about 35 years of age.

King Solomon was the first coal
man. But Solomon in all his glory and
wisdom had his troubles Just as coal
men have today, for according to the
Bible, Proverbs XXVI-21, AS GOALS
are to burning Goals and wood to Ares,
so is the contentious man to kindle
strife" This sentence was written
during the reign of Solomon in 1915,
B. c. His mines were located near
Beirut, Syria, where, strange to say,
coal is still being mined.
Solomon with a thousand wives to
provide for, must have had a sweet
time keeping the coal bins allied and
providing warmth for his many house
holds. He, no doubt, experienced the
same troubles in having an adequate
supply on hand during the seasons Of
the year that heat was required that
people do today, for undoubtedly the
methods Of transportation in those
days were limited, and coal could only
be transported in small quantities
from one place to another. Then, also
the problem OF communication was 9
difficult one for in that day and time
messages were sent by bearers, ant
usually a whole delegation went along
to carry presents Of wines, silks ant
incense to put the recipient In goot
frame of mind to receive the aotua
message, and of course, this required
much time and delay.
Today the coal operator and dealel
are more fortunate. for with modern
methods of communication and trans

10000, 900 in this country alone. From

words spoken by alexander Graham

portation they are able to keep in
touch with supply and demand, and
with this knowledge, furnish an ade-
Quate supply of fuel as it is required
As the prices fiuctuate they are ia
nniliar with conditions and guage their
operations accordingly
When your coal supply gets low you
get in touch with your dealer by tele
phone, and soon the big trucks are
unloading the necessary fuel in your
cellar or factory. But the operations
that make this possible are numerous
and cover much detail.
The car supply and adequate rail.
road facilities are necessary to the
movement of coal from the base of
supply to the consumer. and every
where along the line the telephone, az
means of communication, is tied-in
with transportation. The United
States has the best communication
and transportation systems that the
world has ever known. No nation
state or community has ever prospered
that did not have these facilities de
veloped to a high degree.
Modern railroads depend on the tele
phone for train dispatching, in fac
from the dark interior of the Goa
mine, miles back under the mountain
to the superintendent's Office, and all
along the route every operation that
brings this fuel to your coal bins, is
dependent on this modern means Of
communication.
