The Burlington TyanSpor ation, With Captain Sid Barring, ton at the helm, is making stren uous efforts to be in shape to take care of the rush up the Stlkine river this spring when the rush to the Cassiar starts
 Captain Burlington lett Seattle for Wrangell some time ago to superintend the overhaul ing of his fleet of river boats in anticipation of the rush and writ. es Outside now that the work is proceeding at a good rate and that by the time navigation opens he will be all ready to go, and not only that but in position to give the stalnpeders the best service that they have ever had in the history of the Stickine and Dease Leke.
 Beginning May first, the Harrington Navigation Company will have a sailing from Wrangell for Telegraph creek every forty eight hours. There will be no delays and the powerful river boats will sail on schedule time As soon as they unload at the up river point, they will return to Wrangell for fresh load of stampeders and supplies, keep ing up the service all summer or as long as the business offered warrants.

POSTAL ZONING ORDERS
 STRONGLY CONDEMNED
Business Manager Of Now York Times Calls It Tax on Edu-
 cation"

New York, Aug. 5 LPl-The entire zone system of postal rates vas at- tackled today as "a tax on education by Louis Wiley, business manager of the New York Times appearing be- fore the special joint sub committee of congress as representative of the Publishers association Of New York The system comprises oppressive tariff, equally burdensome on pub fishers and the reading public, Mir Wiley asserted, and should be aban- doned.
 It is impossible. the witness said, for any Metropolitan newspaper to maintain a nationwide mail sub scription list under present rates. h. creased expenses of the Times alone under the new rates have amounted to $372,960.o5, he said, an increase of 2So per cent over pre-war rates
 The newspapers ask for no privileges" Mir, Wiley stated, fin urging permanent equitable legisla- ton to remedy the present situation we ask that postal rates be deter mined upon the basis of facts and statistics correctly ascertained. The second class rates alone of the four classes have been maintained at war time levels, when all other classes have been restored to former lower rates. We have suffered compara- tive injustice for fl.e years.'

TENN. WILL FIGHT
 ID DEFEND LAW
Governor Determined Evolution
 Statute Shall Stand
By Tho Associated Press,

By Hs AbkeElaltI tItEsI
 Battle Creek. Mich, Aug, S.-Goy- ernor Austin Peay of Tennessee. in statement here today announced that his state would employ counsel 10 combat every question that can be raised on appeal of the Scopes case.
 The governor and Mrs. Peay left today for Nashville after six weeks rest here.
 What the effect of the evolution trial at Dayton will have in the long run is for the future" the gov ernor said Surely it will cause a more widespread investigation of the whole theory of evolution that will go long way 10 clarify the atmos- phere.
 ",rhe reckless teaching of sub ject which has been carried on until now and going uncorrected and un- digested has been steadily making agnostics and unbelevers among our youth Tn shocking numbers.
 Ours from the beginning has been q Christian nation, It's doom is sealed and its descent toward ob- lirion well begun whenever we en- brace infidelity and agnosticism as 8 people"
 The people of Tennessee, Gov ernor Peay said, know that evolu- ton Is, and In the very nature of things must always remain, a spec ulation and theory. They believe that the Bible Is the revealed and inspired word of the Creator of all things and are unwilling for their children to be taught the contrary.
 The governor said that there was no federal question in the Scopes case.
 Tennessee is sovereign state and except as forbidden by the fed eral constitution has absolute and exclusive authority to regulate its local concerns and to employ its po- lice powers without any federal in- reference" he said,
 Whether the law, when properly construed, prohibits in our schools the theory of evolution remains 10 be seen, It certainly prohibits it's teaching as a fact. No state should permit that. In any event, Tennes see would not presume to regulate the schools and methods of instruc- ton in other states. and beyond treating with meddlers from else where who undertake to tell her how to run her own schools she will give them no attention."

FOREIGN OFFICE
 ISSUES DENIAL
French Reiute Reported Peace
 Terms With Riffs

Paris, Aug. tP-The foreign office today denied authenticity of an account published in Paris this morning of peace terms alleged to have been offered to Abd- Krim the rebel Moroccan chieftain, by France and Spain. The alleged terms included administrative au- tonomy for the Riff, Abd-El- -Krim recognition of the spiritual author- ity of the Sultan of Morocco and purported to set boundaries for the Riff state.
 In official circles here the ac- count published is attributed 10 the Riffian leader himself. Officials admit that the alleged terms are correct as regards an offer of autonomy 10 the Riff But the frontiers outlined in the account as well as conditions relative to the Riff army are declared 10 be either ina ginary or propaganda.
 At the Quai D'Orsay the author ship Of the document Is thought to be a part of the Riffian leaders policy aimed 10 keep up political agitation in France and 10 present the peace terms in such a light as to make them look unacceptable 10 the French socialists This policy if is stated, is also aimed 10 raise questions which are likely to cause international difficulties in the set tlement of new regime for the troubled zone of Morocco.
 II is pointed out at the Quai D'Orsay that Abd- El-krim man. euvers have already provoked a statement from Rome that Italy is closely watching developments with g. view eventually to demanding compensation if the status of Nor occo as fixed by the Algeciras con- ference of 1906 is modified,
 It is said that France and Spain may be obliged 10 publish the peace terms which they have agreed on in Madrid in order to avoid further misleading interpretations. Before doing this. however, they will give Abd FL krim a little time to take official cognizanCe of the real terms of peace If he is so inclined. The impression prevails in official circles that the Riffian chieftain is determined to avoid being placed in position where he will be obliged 10 reply.
