ledges, remain unprofitable only because of the high cost of transporting the ore by raw hiding. Congress can make no mistake in authorizing con- struction of the seven or eight miles of wagon road necessary to link this undoubtedly rich district with the existing trans portation routes and will most likely do so if the true facts are presented for its consider ation. It is up to us to see that they are so presented and ev- cry one can help in some de- gree if they will. Especially is this true of those elements of the community who devote so much of their energy to fo- menting discords and petty sqabbles instead of working for the advancement of the district. The question of who s going to run things here abouts is in no degree as i'm oortant as getting that road up Texas Creek. The latter means added prosperity and benefits Cor the community, the former only the satisfaction of person. Il egotism and distinct injury to the community at home and abroad.

Col. Jas. G. Steese, head of the Alaska Road Commission, is now in Washington on his annual mission of persuading q reluctant Congress to grant much needed funds for Alaska road work. Inasmuch as Col.

The passage of a resolution by the Chamber of Commerce showing that the proposed con truction is not only just- ifiab but also absolutely es- sentjai to the development or . region that will produce ore almost simultaneously with the opening of wagon traffic, and citing he ore shipments made at great effort and expense thi5 season as concrete evl dence that the comparatively small expense involved will yield immediate returns ir veal h production, would un- doubtedly be of material as sistance 10 Colonel Steese in his efforts.
 Local business houses and citizens could lend valuable aid to the movement by ad- dressing private communicat- ions of the same tenor to mem- bers of the Washington dele gation in Congress, members of the various Congressional committees and bureau offic- ials engaged in the handling of ruhlic works in Alaska.
 There is not doubt that a little effort in this direction. now that consideration of Alaska road development mat ters is impending, will help a great deal toward securing the much needed road.
 The past season has disclosed beyond all doubt that the Tex as Creek region will become productive the moment that wagon traffic is provided. De- spite almost prohibitory trans portation conditions small shipments of ore have already come out of the district by pack train. Many hundred +one which need but to be broken out from the exposed

BY JACK METTE

COLUMBIA, S. C.-South Cardinals

schools and teachers but herds thou

fields and mills.
Nearly .$10,0O0,0OO was appropriated
for state expenses, much of which
went to education. The schools are in
fine condition. Millions have been
spent for roads on which children
could go to school; but they are used
instead to transport children into the

company at the Auditorium last Sat

three act opera by Modest Musorg-
ski, based on a play by Pushkin, which
in turn is a dramatization of actual
facts.
The Tsar Feodor, who ruled from
1884 to 1893, was an imbecile, and his
brother-in-law, Boris Godunov, acted
as regent for him. Feodor had two
sons. one an idiot, one normal child.

shows the populace of Moscow pray

The second scene of the same act is
in the cell of the monk Pimen. The
old monk is writing a history Of the
misdeeds of Boris Godunov. He tells
a young man, Gregory by name, how
Boris had killed Dimitri. Gregory
cooks up scheme to go to Lithuania
and to Poland, attract a following,
march on Moscow and depose Boris
claiming to be Dimitri.
