WHAT DID THEY ACCOMPLISH?

The legislative sessions are over and now the question is being ask ed What was accomplished by this session just adjourned?
 The first thing accomplished ac- cording to our mind is making the canning interests realize that they have an interest in tho Territory that is more than just dividends on stock. That to retain the respect and goodwill of residents Alaskan they must give respect and have friendly consideration for those in the Territory.
 The next thing brought out by the legislature is the surprisingly low interest accruing on capital invested. One operator proving that he had earned only one and half percent

who talked so loudly of the bene its of their depopulizing system never make mention of such ship ments of piling to Alaska as is here quoted. Judging from the general run of piling shipped on the Mary ID, The Alaskan takes it that there is no timber in Alaska Gin spite of the heralded sale of timber to pulp mills) and in these vast forest areas it is impossible to get 50 foot pill ing. Yet we have seen rafts of pill ing running in average length of 100 to 125 feet.
 The income that could be derived from this one shipment if bought in Alaska would be $35O,O0O. It would not hurt fishing communities like Wrangell or Petersburg to turn such sum looso among the loggers. The only thing these con- cerns however are possibly afraid of is that this money would be spent mostly in Alaska instead of Seat tie.
 When Alaska, now the greatest salmon canning country in the world follows the steps of Bellingham 'the greatest salmon canning city in the world then residents will awaken to the fact that they have been sold. And those who sold them out will be basking in the sunshine of Cali fornia.

The ves- sel is owned by the Pactic American former Shipping Board ship Pansa. She was converted from a general cargo ship to a vessel designed es- pecially for carrying piles from Pu- get Sound to fish traps owned by the pl natof Todd Dry Docks, Inc, early this year. Some doubt had been expressed that the ship had the carrying capacity claimed by the designers but actual loading figures obtained by RAILWAY & MARINE NEWS from James R. Meston, con- sulting engineer, who with w. c. Nickum, superintended the conver- sion, show the Mary D. carried on her first trip all that had been ex- pocted with space to spare.
 When she sailed on March "A the ship had aboard 2,706 piling of lengths varying from 50 to 115 feet besides a small amount of miscel- laneous supplies. She could have handled another 500 piles of the shorter lengths but they were not available.
 The figures showing the number of piles of each length as released by MT. Meston were as follows: Length No. of Piles

In lLe almost nIty years ot ProtestanL missions in this northern nei0 the uld not attempt to vote and mad no mas never before arisen. Recently, however, partisan politics have pushed this issue to the forefront. AS is inevitable in such agitation an element of bitterness mas been injected. and the results must more or less at1ect unfavorably the mis- slonary enterprises.
 So long as the natives of Alaska were under the ''lnteriority complex" there was no political issue and consequently no race problem.

The very evident reason was that they were unprepared for the responsi- Dilittes of citizenship Today, how ever, it may be truthfully stated that schools submissions have large ly. attained their objectives.

Ii you were busy being kind,
Before you knew it you would find
You'd soon forget to think twas true
That someone was unkind to you.
III you were busy being glad,
And cheering people who are sad,
Although your heart might ache bit,
You'd soon forget to notice it.

And doing just the best you could.
You'd not have time to blame some

Who's doing just the best he can.
