NO MINE LASTS FOREVER.

While Aaskans, generally have undoubtedly read with regret of the closing of the Latouche copper mine by the Kennecott Copper Corporation, that action did not come as a surprise, consequently there was no element of shock in the announce ment of the cessation of operations. For several years the operating company has made it known that the ore reserves were virtually exhausted and that it's prospecting had failed to disclose any new deposits.
 As mining properties go the Latouche property had long life It was an active producer for two decades practically twice the average life of mines as a whole It, like the Kennecott properties under the same management and control, has been an important factor in Territorial affairs It gave employment to many men, from whose ranks have come not a few prospectors and trained miners who have taken their places in other mines in Alaska Of almost equal importance are the taxes it paid into the Territorial treasury, and the stm ulus it gave through it's tonnage to transporta- tion
 It was but natural for it to come to the end of it's existence All mines do sooner or later. In this instance however, Alaska loses no capital in the occurrence The Kennecott Copper Corpora tion with it's Kennecott mines and allied interests, will continue to play leading part in the Terri torys mining industry and, in the past, be on the alert to discover other prospects, acquire those discovered by others and explore and develop them to the stage of active production.

ANOTHER" JONES, LABORS
 CHAMPION.

In the death of Mother Jones recently, one of labor's strongest and most picturesque champions was lost to the workers of America. For the past 60 years she has taken than passive interest in labor and for almost half-century she was a familiar figure in strikes in various fields. And when age and infirmities prevented her from taking an active part her indomitabe spirit enabled her to keep in touch with the labor world even from sick bed She dictated letters to Governors about men in prison and had the papers read to her daily
 She had pronounced views many subjects and did not hesitate to make them known. She was against Prohibition suffrage and commun- ism and always fought for the social platform of the American Federation of Labor In a speech not long ago on her tooth birthday she assaed women's clubs as being a place for ladies" when what the world needed women who would go out and right wrongs In fighting wrongs she in many respects direct actionist, and she was a born crusader and strong indivdualst. She did not know the meaning of the word com promise"
 Though her sympathy was broad enough to cover all laboring men, it was the miners, working long hours in their dark pits which interested her most. Much of her fame came from her activity in the coal mining troubles, in Colorado where she was ordered out of the State, Pennsylvania and West Virginia. Coal miners her boys" and she forgot them. Many of the improved condi- tions in those fields made possible because of her interest in their behalf

HANDICAPS THAT OUGHT TO BE
 REMOVED.

The facts regarding the nations children that have been revealed by survey of the White House Conference on Child Health and Protection are sufficiently startling to arrest the attention of every American According to the Conferences data there are 100000 children than 10 per cent. of all those in the elementary schools of the United States suffering from defective sight, hearing, speech from mental retardaton, emotional in- stability other handicap. Equally serious, there 6,OOe00O children who mal- nouished and 625,00O with weak hearts.
 If these children are to become useful citizens they must be given the proper relief training in special classes will some but others need more than just mere training. This is a problem that should engage every State, county and com munty, and enlist the efforts of all right-thnking men and women The United States has the medi- cal and other science necessary to combat all of the defects reported to exist. It has the wealth to enable its proper application to every needy

A Thought Not Too Happy.
(New York Times.) )


 In his benevolent purpose to fasten Prohibition upon the country Dr. Wilson of the Methodist Board proposes to upset the new apportonment of the House of Representatives. He would have all resident aliens, not naturazed, excluded from the population upon which the apportionment is based His idea is that most of these aliens live in the cities which elect Wet Representatives and prevent the rural regions from having their lawful right to control the destinies of the nation.
 The fact is not mentioned that such plan would require amendment of the Constitution But a trfle like that would not deter a man of Dr Wilson's large and easy way of dealing with all our critical problems. Moreover, he seems to be only dimly aware that any tnkering with the Four teenth Amendment which fixes apportionment on the basis of population, might lead to the reduction of the representation of the Southern States, pro- vided for in that Amendment. It would be a queer way to strengthen Prohibition by reducing the numbers of it's supporters from the Dry South
 The whole plan is too fantastic for serious dis cusson. It does indicate, however the danger that effort may be made to revise or to defeat the apportionment law. That also would be another way of using up time to force a special ses- sion of Congress
