LET EDITH TELL THEM.

Bishop Charles H. Brent, of the Episcopal church. might have taken lesson from Edith, sales girl in department store, who was found at her post though suffering from severe cold.
 We've all got to have money, " she said be- tween
 It's that way with China and India and Per sia and Turkey and all the other opium producing nations of the world. They ve all got to have their money. Therefore, the international opium confer ence, convened by the League of Nations, adjourns with nothing accomplished and Bishop Brent says he will never take part in such conference again.
 The good bishop ought not to be downhearted, but he should keep his feet the ground. In the present state of the world the only way to limit the production of opium to the amount needed for medical and scientific purposes is to fulfill the quest of of these nations and find other crops suited to their soil and climate.
 Persia and Turkey, especially, have expressed themselves as willing to limit their opium produc- tion if they find other adaptable crops. China does not look upon the plan with disfavor. India is the most obstinate.
 When that is done, certian benefits will accrue to mankind, but mankind will pay for them. If the opium prdoucing nations turn to cotton for ample the effect will be felt in diminished demand for the cotton of Egypt and our own South unless the world can be made to cotton. We must all have money and must all pay.

IN THE INTEREST OF BETTER
 UNDERSTANDING.

In this issue of the Alaska Weekly, in common with other territorial newspapers carries the open ing advertisement in series to be by the can ming industry This advertising, according to their announcement is being in the interests of bet ter understanding.
 If this advertising constitutes honest effort at the dissemination of information designed to bring about better understanding and greater measure of cooperation between the fisheries interests and Alaskans in genera-then 1t may we'll be of great value to both since it is only through understanding that the best may be had from anything.
 We have read the entire series and we believe it to be such an effort. More and more, corporate interests are coming to the realization that much of the antpathy of the public is due to lack of derstanding of the problems confronting those di- recting the activities of industry, just the "pub- lie be damned' policy of corporate interests is the result of failure the part of those in- terests to grasp the viewpoints of the public Eric tion retards progress. This is true business maxim as it is in physical law. No industry can render society the greatest possible of
 ice where there is friction Since the measure of success is in direct ratio to the measure cf service rendered. no industry can reach the maximum of sue cess unless working in harmony with the public it is endeavoring to serve.
 genuine understanding on the part of Alas kans of the problems of the canning industry and of the ndllstrys attitude toward those problems would be of inestimable value to Alaska. An un- derstanding of the Alaskan viewpoint would be of equal value to the industry.
 We believe that this series of advertise ments will help to create that understanding and will at the same time, tend to show that the can nerymen do recognize something of the Alaskan viewpoint and attempting wherever feasible to accord it proper consideration. Nothing could be of more value to Alaska than a degree of under standing which would permit of getting the best out of the territorys greatest industry. Study these ads as they appear-they are worthy of your lserous consideration.-The Alaska Weekly.

WEALTH IN THE DEPTHS.

Mother Earth has given generously of her treas ures for the benefit of mankind, but it appears that she still holds in her bosom riches greater than those already yielded up
 Recent from the Cripple Creek gold dis trct in Colorado tells of the successful operation of mines to depth of 2,70O feet, whereas the older workings rarely exceeded 1000 feet in depth.
 Numerous instances can be pointed out in which new and greater oil deposits have been found at lower levels, after the wells drilled to ordinary depths had been exhausted
 The same thing is true of other mineral wealth discovered at increasing depths where modern machinery makes it possible to work with profit.
 These facts, together with the desire of scien- lists for greater knowledge of the earths interior have led to the serious suggestion that great hole be dug to depth of several miles into the earth s crust in the combined interests of science and in- dustry.
 It has been proposed that such an enterprise be undertaken government project it being pointed out that it could be done for the cost of modern battleship. Here lies limtless unexplored field for adventure with possibilities for astonishing results

FACTS NOT POPULAR.

It is,a strange trait of most humans that they little for facts which would increase their store of real knowledge We spend many hours reading trashy fiction, which, if devoted to the acquiring of useful information would make really cul- tured.
 With the greatest wonders fo the universe over head every night, few persons know the names of half dozen stars. Few know distinguish the difference between fixed star and planet.
 This is merely illustration of how little interest is taken in the great facts of nature Even with regard to current events, small attention is paid to new developments which mean much to mankind The greatest discoveries of science are hardly ever discussed while details of the latest murder are on every tongue.
 While relatively few people in the world are giving thought to the marvellous developments of our wonderful age the vast majority confine their read ing and conversation to a narrow range of the most trivial subjects Facts worth knowing are not popu- lar.

Cold Facts

THIS Is not an alibl for the In.
l. dams, but a cold statement OF
facts, as the Sacramento, Vernon,
Los Angeles and San Francisco
rlubs played on the average OF 20
exhibition games. while the Indians
and Beavers, unable to attract big
league teams training in California
because Of the small population at
their respective camps, played very
few contests. Seattle played six
games in all, three OF the scheduled
bills being called off because Of
rain.
1t takes actual competition for n
team to get on edge for the playing
season.
And IT takes long time
after the season Is two weeks
old TO pull out OF the rut, as
the other teams are also get
ting better as the year pro-
crosses.
