MORE REGARDING
 R. R. OUTLOOK

Railway is anxious to extend it's lines into the Peace River country and eventually on to Dawson, with a line to Stewart and Hyder, is the substance of m interesting statement on the railway situation made recent ly by P. T. O'Farrell, noted publicist and author of many articles on the Peace River section.
 The statement in question was made by MT. OFarrell during recent conference with MT. J. A. Hall, vice president of he Hall Company, Ltd, of Vancouver, and also president of the Bank of Hyder.
 As outlined by MT. Hall in a letter to Mir. E. D. Haddon, manager of the Bank of Fly Ter, the conference, held at MT. O'Farrell's request, was devoted principally to discus ing local railway terminal possibilities, with a view to de- determining what cooperation nay be expected from local property holders.
 'I judge from what he told ne," MT. Halls letter contin- les, ''that MT. O'Farrell is al- jed with the National Rail- vay with a view to getting the government to approve such a program.
 "The Canadian Pacific has ap- )arently bought the Edmon- on and Dunvegan line sub- ect to the approval of the gov ,rnment and MT. O'Farrell in- imated that there is going to ne big fight against the c. ,. R. getting the road. But if hey do there will be a deter mined effort made to permit he Canadian National to go nto the Peace and on north, as we'll as to Stewart. Editorial Jote-Mr. Halls letter was written some days prior to the nnouncement that the c. N. R. would join with the c. P. R. n the purchase and operation of the Edmonton and Dun 'egan, a development which will probably alter consider !bly the prospect indicated in he preceding paragraph.)
 "He asked me" Mir. Halls etter continues, what we would be willing to do as prop ,rty holders up there to join in arranging terminals. I told him ve would be very glad to CO., operate in any way we can and would state definitely what we Ire willing to do as soon as oncrete proposals are made. Ie is leaving for Ottawa in a 'ew days to work on the pro- ect and hopes to have defi- lite program outlined when he eturns here early in the bring.
 'I hear also that New York people are interested in a pro- ect of this kind, and between he three groups who are look ng forward to building a rail- oad, something should come If their efforts. am now con- 'inced that we are going to see he long dreamed of railroad put through in the near future. As I see it, it is only a matter If a short time when the people who have been pioneer ing will have their opportun- ity."

An American Sermon.
Cincinnati Enquirer.)

(OlDClnndIl EnQulfef)
 American sermons needed in these days of varied propaganda designed to weaken the structure of republican governments propa- ganda which is insidous and all-pervasive.
 Rev. John Malick. Pastor of the First Con- gregatonal Church, preached this kind of a sermon Sunday morning. And it was a sermon filled with the vitality of right religion. We desire to reemphasize his declaration that "It is not quite honest for any party to take over the Christian name to give itself advantage in human contest in which no test of Chris tianity is at issue. It is political trckery for any party in America at this time to claim any monopoly of the Christian name or Christian virtues. Some day in America we shall perhaps be able to rebuke at the polls any party that seeks place by capitalization of the Christian name for itself and denying it to others That will be a clarifying day for the Christian re- lgon and a wholesome day for the country"
 Aye that it would be- and may heaven speed the day! This Government is too great too fine, too noble to be submerged by the evil usts of dead ages. This is America the land in theory-of liberty, fraternity equality and toeranee-in theory, say. The hydra heads of socialism and religious sectariansm are being lifted They spell menace, destruction to the noble dream of the founders of the republic They offer hatred for harmony. They propose disunion and destruction. They oppose fraternity and accord
 As. Dr. Malick said-ahd it unfortunately is true-"there is not the remotest connection be- tween the Christian religion and what some of those who purport to be it's leaders today are using the Christian name to impress upon the country at this time"

SENATOR SIMMONS MIsREPREsENTs

The Associated Press quoted Senator Simmons as saying that Gov Smith had acted with the arrogance of the German Kaiser" and treated the Democratic platform a mere scrap of paper. '' That is in substance what the American Review of Reviews said. Chairman Pittman of the Democratic platform committee submitted the record of the committee meetings. and Albert Shaw editor of the Review of Reviews retracted his statement.
 If Senator Simmons had been as fair he used to be he would have kept his mouth shut. One does not expect anything better than mis- representatin from the Methodist Board of Tem- perance Prohibition and Public Morals, the Chris tan Herald, Bishop Lawrence, Bishop Cannon and the rest of the preachers who are making political forums of their pupits They have contracted the misrepresenting habit. But one does expect United States Senator to be fair especially one who for long had the stand ing that was Senator Simmonss.

White Supremacy Is Threatened!
(New York Times ]

The Kansas City Star speculates about what may result from the newly developed fondness of the Osage Indians for golf. They have apparently
 taken up the game'' with such seriousness that they have banned the nineteenth hole AS a bandi cap to keeping fit.
 This alone is enough to cause the white man to pause. Heretofore he has regarded golf as ms special hobby, sort of token of his civil- zatlon Wherever he has moved he has organized his golf club and built course But as rule the natives have looked upon this sport as form of madness, and have pitied rather than sought to emulate the poor, benighted white man who was rich enough to hire some to knock the httle ball round the links for him and yet in- sisted doing this himself

GOV. RIGGS DISCUSSES BEAR
 BEHAVIOR.

Former Gov. Thomas Riggs contributes an Illustrated article in October Field and Stream in the discussion over the question, Twill a grizzly bear attack a without provocation?' Gov. Riggs heads his article, My Vote Is Yes His is the fifth article of the series. He contends that sometimes grizzly bear will attack with out provoeation.
 Gov Riggs states his premise this way:
 The man who has
 grizzly bear outside the zoo is decidedly
 of the opinion that he will not attack
 man without provocation. Many
 sportsmen who have hunted the grizzly
 CT brown bear of Alaska say he will
 not It happend that their especial
 grizzlies ran the other way. I have
 hunted grizzlies and have never been at
 tackled But l know man who had the
 whole top of his scalp torn off by
 grizzly while peacefully walking along
 mountain trail. This is firmly
 convinced that his bear nursed deep
 seated groueh against mankind in gen
 eral and himself in particular.
 The Governor then proceeds with more than a dozen instances of unproyoked attacks by grizzly and brown bears that came under his observation while he Governor of Alaska. He gives names, dates and circumstances He also refers to the fact that the Governors office in Juneau contains the data of many other cases.
 Gov. Riggs used the aggressiveness of both brown and grizzly bears to prove his because the Biological Survey puts them in the same classification.
 Of course, Gov. Riggs is right. The case against the Alaskan bears, browns and grizzlies has been proved so often that it causes to wonder why the discussion And probably more than any other man, Gov. Riggs gath cred the evidence to cineh the argument.

The Oldest Justice.
(New York World.)

Oliver Wendell Holmes Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States, today reaches an age greater than that reached by any Justice who has ever sat that bench, becom- Ing eighty-seven years and seven months, lack Ing three days. Roger Broke Fancy who until now had been the oldest, lived to be eghy-seven and seven months, lacking four days. And realization that Justice Holmes occupies such a venerable position comes a surprise Few men Tn public life seem less venerable than he; des- plte his years his work is vigorous and dis tingushd as it has been and he is still DOS sesses the gayety of spirit that he had of old We congratulate him with some dffidence: he is no the kind of man who would take much pride lh merely being old. But diffident or not we must congratulate him. For some reason we feel as though something historical had happened and we cannot let the event pass without saying something about it.

JUSTICE HANDICAPPED.

In these days of over-zeaous Prohibition en- forcement agents it confidence in our institutions when Grand Jury steps between good citizens who have been subjected to in justice and those who would them humilia- tion and expense. The yindieation by the re- cent Grand Jury of leading Juneau merchants. who had been rough-housed and arrested, causes feeling of security that business men, and others, should feel in their Government When merchants are openly selling articles that are manufactured under Government permit, bought through regular and responsible jobbers and sent to them in the regular way via authorized and responsible transportation companies, there is a fairer way to settle the question as to whether the articles in trade contraband or not than that of raiding the stores and arresting the retail
 merchants. The arrest of the Juneau merchants who yindicated by the Grand Jury an outrage to every of fair play and justice
