GOOD MOVE BY LAWYERS.

If members of the American Bar Association really put into effect the recently announced intention of sim plifying the language of laws and legal documents they will earn the grati- tude of the public and give many struggling more time to ground him self in the law and less in languages.
 Everyone knows that our law books and legal records are cluttered up with useless words, which tend only to confuse and obscure the ideas they are supposed to convey.
 It seems that the old policy has been to make laws as difficult as pos sible, so that only lawyer is able to make sense out of them, while half the time they disagree over the mean ing and intent of the law.
 Striking archaic and superfluous words and phrases from future legal documents would be most salutary and timely reform. Will the lawyers really do it?

FARM LEGISLATION

As this is written, certain leaders in Congress are striving with might and main to get "some kind" of 8 farm relief bill passed. It doesn't matter so much to these gentlemen what kind of bill it is, or whether it will do any good or not, just so the farmer will think they are look ing after his interests.
 These politicians have promised to aid the farmer, knowing full we'll that their promises were so much bunk, but if they can pass some thing" that looks like a farm relief measure, they hope to get by for another term.
 State Senator Brown of Wyoming hit the nail on the head a few days ago, when he said:
 When a man is broke, he is broke, and nothing but good judg- ment, hard work and strict economy can help him."
 After long years of bitter exper- fence, many farmers have yet been unable to learn this simple truth. They still believe the politicians.

BENEFICIAL MERGERS

Two mergers have been made dur which will add greatly to the soldar ity of the commercial life of the town. Early in the month the Daily Times took over and assimilated the business and plant of the Daily Alaskan, the only morning paper in Alaska. This week the announcement is made that the Bank of Alaska has taken over the Bank of Anchorage, with it's de- posits and assets.
 Both the mergers were necessary and will give the city a stronger bank and better newspaper. No town ill Alaska is large enough for two daily papers, which make for a continual drain on the business interests, and can accomplish no worth while civic promotion. The Daily Times has long controlled the field and it's publishers have given Anchorage excellent serv- ice A town of less than 2,000 i'll the States is a poor field for even small weekly, and as both dailies covered the same news and the same field, it was inevitable that one must absorb the other, were either to live. Seward had two papers several years ago, and both went to the wall, killing each other off with their continual picker ing and promotion of strife After lapse of several years, during which time the town languished and nearly passed away in business sense, The Gateway was revived and today again represents flourshing community.
 The consolidation of the banks will be beneficial along the same lines. No bank in the Territory is making it's financial bankers wealthy, and one good, strong bank in a community is better than half a dozen losing mon- ey. It might be said, while on this subject, that too many business en- terprises along the same lines will kill off any town, instead of building it up. There is much food for reflec- 1 tiOn in the experiences of both Sew 1 ard and Anchorage along these lines l

PAUL AIRING ANlMUS.

Representative William L. Paul. of the First division is apparently taking advantage of his official position to take revenge on J. R. Heckman, head of the Territorial Fisheries Bureau, and capitalist of Ketchikan. Mir. Heckman, at the last session of the legislature, was instrumental in get ting through a bill establishing fish hatcheries at Ketchikan, COrdova and Seward, and MT. Paul evidently wants these removed, as he has introduced bill in the present legislature ask ing for abolishment of the Territorial Bureau
 Without knowing anything of the workings of the hatcherieS at Ketch- kan or at Cordova, The Gateway be- lieves that instead of abolishing these hatcheries there should be others built at the mouths of all streams where fish propagate i'll any consid- erable numbers. Valdez should have q hatchery at Robe Lake, magnif- cent red fish body of water; WrangeI and Petersburg should have hatcher ies, and these aids of salmon propaga- tion should be built in such numbers that an increase of the salmon pack would be certain.
 Unless something is done to increase our rapidly depicting fish supply, not only MT. Pauls constituents, but those in every other division will be out of fishing jobs within a few more years Mir. Paul is against the fishing inter- ests, and is as rabid over the question as is John Rustgard over the steam ship lines. He would prefer to have no fish, if thereby, he can get MT. Heck man divorced from his job.

FASHION IS CRUEL.

Commander Edward Breck of the Naval Reserve Force and Mrs. Minnie Maddern Fiske, the eminent actress, are leaders in the movement to sup press the extreme cruelty of trapping fur-bearing animals in steel traps and other nOn-killing devices.
 According to Commander Breck who is a woodsman and author, 100 million wild animals are caught each year in steel traps in which the help less animals often suffer days and even weeks of agony before being killed.
 He declares that the Summer fur fashion is responsible for much of this unnecessary cruelty, having increased the slaughter of fur bearing animals four-fold Not more than ten per cent of the animals now tortured in traps are needed to supply the demand for cold weather garments.
 Trapping by means of devices which kill swiftly or capture the animals without maiming them, thus making it possible to kill them in humane manner is considered an economic ne- cessity, but the pitless methods now employed are such as to cause revul- sion on the part of humane persons.
 People all over the world sympa- thized with Floyd Collins, dying by inches in a Kentucky cave, with his leg held in a remorseless trap. It is to their credit that his tragic fate so moved their feelings. Yet Collins did not go through one-tenth the suffering a trapped animal goes through before it dies a lingering death.

A FORTUNE OUT OF AIR.

Shortly after the close of the Civil War, young inventor, just past q, endeavored to interest old Commodore Vanderbilt in a new brake for rail- road trains, to be operated by com pressed air. After listening with inn patience to the proposition, the Com modore asked whether the inventor meant that he could stop a train with nothing but air He was answered in the affirmative.
 "Then get out of here,' he cried. T have no time to waste on fools.''
 Vanderbilt thought the joke was so good that he told it at the club and many chuckle was indulged in over the man who though the could stop train with air. The man was George Westinghouse, and within few years after the interview, Vanderbilt paid large sum for block of stock sold by the Westinghouse company. The pdleAl udue loItuue 1or SeFeIdi persons. When Westinghouse died in 1914 he was rated among the very wealthy men of America
 His early struggles were typical of those of many young men with an idea and nothing else. He was more for tunate than most of them, as he was not defrauded out of his invention.
