Alaskan Natives on Upward Climb.
Seattle Post-Intelligencer)


 Returning from trip of inspection to the North ern Territory Dr. William J. Cooper Commission CT of Education reports to the Department of the Interior that "The central purpose of education for the Alaskan native should be his development into industrial competence"
 This is a sensible major objective for education of children of the United States mainland, for most of them, upon reaching maturity must live by and in industry. It is even more important for natives of Alaska, to whom the white-collar world is closed, at least at present and for some time to come, by economics and geography.
 The report contains the specific recommenda- ton that Alaskan natives be given better access to employment in fish canneries. Each year Ffli- pinos and Orientals transported for this work, with potential native help at hand and competent it is claimed.
 Dr. Cooper finds the basis economic situation of the natives not bad it might be. There are the beginnings of industrial contact. Two fish canneries owned and operated by Alaskan In- dians. There is some activity in boat building, at which the natives adept. Many Eskimos and Indians own reindeer herds ranging in number from LOGO to 5000 Besides furnishing food, it is promised that eventually outlet for surplus meat will be opened in the States. Development of such a market would mean comparative wealth for some and a larger measure of economic independence for many
 On the whole there is unmistakable promise of better days for Uncle Sams wards in the North. The Government should omit nothing that will hasten the arrival of this most desirable era

 It is customary at this time of the year when the General Manager of the Alaska Railroad Col Otto F. Ohlson departs for Washington, D. o. there to appear before the numerous committees on railroad matters and to secure next years ap- proprations, to extend to him all the luck in the world and that he may return North with the assurance that the next fiscal year appropriation will be larger than ever.
 But this time desire to say that whether or not he gets dime want him to return because. under his administration it will be only a few years when he will have the road on paving basis; judging from the way he has taken hold of the development end
 The quickest way for the Appropriation Com mlttee to send this annual petition for funds is to give Colonel Ohlson what money he asks for to carry out his ideas. Forget, for once paltry mil lion or so, give with free hand and then. watch the tonnage tolls roll up
 There never has been a General Manager of the Alaska Railroad who attained the confidence and cooperation from the rank and file of Alaskans as Colonel Ohlson

THE PUMPKINS PARTY By Mary Graham Bonner

Again the Little Black Clock took John and Peggy back to the eve ming when the meeting took place in the big field Those at the meeting were the many pumpkins. They were all talking about their plans and their hopes. Many of them hoped to be Jack O'Lanterns.
 "Ill tell you what" said one of the pumpkins, Tets make wishes on the moon"
 The others thought that was a splendid idea and you would have laughed, if you could have seen the pumpkins, one after the other, wishing on the moon
 One put his wish in a rhyme.
 l wish that I may carry light
 To show my yellow face so bright
 I wish to go on Halloween
 To some place where I will be
 seen.
 To some party may I be bidden So my pumpkin glory will not be hidden.
 The others told the pumpkin who had just recited this wish that his lines were quite uneven and that his poetry was not very good.
 NO matter" said he,, T made my meaning clear and if my lines weren't even-well, it's not stylish for a pumpkin to be like others.
 "A large mouth is a splendid thing to have if one is a pumpkin Lots of people do not care for huge mouths.
 "A fat, round shape is magnifi- cent for a pumpkin, but it isn't so becoming to boys and girls"
 The other pumpkins all agreed with this, and before the meeting was over the pumpkins all sang to- gether under the light of the moon. This was the chorus of their song
 Pumpkins are we,
 All full of glee.
 We live in a field,
 We may end in pie,
 It's just all the same,
 In the good bye-and-bye.
 And then the Little Black Clock said, Wed better leave now. The pumpkins are falling asleep"
 And now, not a sound was heard in the field.

PACIFIC COAST COFFEE TRADE
 GROWS.

The American Pacific Coast is fast becoming one of the most important coffee centers or the world San Francisco has been an important cof- fee importing port for two more scores of years but it's imports of coffee have increased 334 per cent since 1915. The coffee imports of the entire Pacific Coast in 1915 amounted to $4S,022,659. The last fiscal year they reached 223 per cent. gain compared with National increase or 28 per cent in the time.
 Business Chronicle of Seattle accounts for the phenomenal gain by claiming superiority for Pa cific Coast blends It points to the circumstance that Pacific Coast imports cover much wider range of territory than those of the East In the country as a whole Brazil and Columbia furnished 88 per cent. of the American imports, more than TO per cent. of which from Brazil. At San Francisco six per cent or more of the imports comes from each of six countries-Columbia, Brazil, Salvador, Java and Guatemala, with Costa Rica furnishing 38 per cent. and Nicaragua per cent. Columbia furnishes 362 per cent of San Francisco coffee against 334 from Brazil
 Commenting upon the situation, Business Chron- icle says;
 The proof of advance of Pacific Coast
 coffee merchandising does not rest alone
 upon statistical analysis. few years ago
 Arbuckles, Lion, Chase & Sanborn and
 Whitehouse were leading brands in this
 territory. Now they have been almost en-
 tirey suppanted by such well known brands
 as Hills Brothers M B. Corona Crescent,
 Gold Shield Mannings, Golden West, Schl-
 lings and Reliance.
 These brands began few years ago to
 supply local demand. Now all of them
 have wide distribution, not only the
 Pacific Coast but far East as St. Paul,
 Omaha, and Chicago.
 Coffee roasters and merchants may well
 say about the wide distribution of Pacific
 Coast coffee, There's a reason" and the
 reason is the greater number of balancing
 sources of material, permitting the
 production of a superior and more finely
 graded product

The death at Sitka of E. w. Merrill, Alaska scenic artist, removes one who has done a lot oi good for Alaska and for all the lovers of beauty who have been fortunate enough to study ms work
 MT Merrill was an authentic artist. He loved art he loved the beauty in Nature, he loved AlasKa All these things are evident to those who nave so long admired his pictures.
 While the dead artist made so many Alaska pic- lures that they will continue to live and give pleasure, it is too bad that their production has been cut off It is unfortunate that he could not have lived many years to make more and yet more pictures.
 MT Merrill has for his name permanent place in the history of Alaska through the work he has done with and brush during the last three decades.

TINKER TO RETURN TO BASEBALL;
 SEES CUBS AS PENNANT WINNERI
By PAUL MORRISON GA. P. Sports Writer

CHICAGO, Aug 15.-The magic spell of the diamond is too much for Joe Tinker, spark plug of Chi cago's last winning Cub team. Joe is coming back to the game.
 Out for eight years, a third of the famous Tinker to Evers to Chance" combination is dickering with several minor league clubs and expects to manage one of them this s "a son. He last managed Cincinnati
 Baseball is. in my blood and the game has got me for life" Tinker, now 49, said. During the eight years have been peddling Florida real estate the urge to return has been growing I don't know of anything that is a better business prospect"
 After watching the pennant con- tending Cubs of today, Tinker thought they would win the Ma tional league bunting
 They have pitchers and hitters, and such a combination is not to be found in any other club.
 Whether they can down the Ath- letics in the world series is some thing else again I believe I would lay my money on the As"
 Tinker, unlike most of the old timers, thinks the ball player of today is faster than those of his time.
 Sure I'm proud of my record and of the fellows who played with me. yet I think they were not quite on par with the lads of today" said Joe. "The boys today take base ball asa business. When the game is over they forget it until the next day, just as clever business man does. In my time we thought so much about the game that we'd fight with our wives and children after bad day"
 Tinker was shortstop on the Cub teams of 1905, '06 and 'O7 which won three pennants and two world championships. Johnny Evers now with the Boston Braves, was at second and Frank Chance at first. Chance is dead. They set record for double plays that stood until last year when Cincinnati broke it.
 Cincinnati broke it by standing back on the grass When we were hustling the ball around, we had to play in closer. If they had slammed the ball then as they do now, we'd have made many more double killings"
