 The principle involved in pre- emtive bids is that they are made for the purpose of preventing the opponents from reaching a correct game-going declaration, especially when your hand contains a long trump suit and no defensive strength, therefore it naturally fol- lows that pre-emptive bids must be high enough to shut out the op- ponents.
 While some authorities favor pre-emptive bids of three in q major and four in minor, most of them under the straight forcing system, agree that the original three bid, as outlined in our pre- vious article, has more value when used in that manner than for pre- emptive purposes.
 Pre-emptive bids should not be made on hands that contain de- fensive strength even though you have long trump suit. It is bet ter to start the bidding on those types of hands low in the hope of being doubled, especially when you have enough defensive strength to stop the opponents from going game. Therefore, all original bids of four in a suit are classed as pre- emptive bids. They guarantee a long, strong trump suit, but little or no defensive strength. They are made on hands that contain eight probable tricks and partner must remember that with no additional values in his hand the original bid der fully expects to go down two tricks as he is advertising an over bid.
 If partner opens with an original four bid, you should not deny this pre- emptive bid unless you are quite sure that your hand will take at least nine tricks. When partner opens with a pre-emptive four bid and is overcalled by op- you may increase part ner's pre-emptive bid with one quick trick as it will make good sacrifice bid and you would still be down only two tricks.
 With two quick tricks and the force you to bid six, you can still expect to go down only two tricks for a good sacrifice.
 Pre-emptive bids should never be made with a hand containing less than a strong Six-card trump seven. Minor suits should be even stronger as in most cases the only successful minor suit pre-emptive bid is one of five.
 The beginner at contract is more or less apt to abuse pre-emptive bids. Remember that the expert uses them very seldom-there is usually a better bid in the hand. Don't shut your partner out just because you have a long trump suit. There may be a better decla- ration for the combined 26 cards.

quehanna or where the certain
stone was found.
The District of Columbia Indians
were in the Stone age and imperish-
able stone tools left in the soil are
silent though eloquent Of the old
times.
The river life of the Potomac in
1908 must have been very interest
ing. John Smith tells of divers saw
ages in canoes, well laden with the
flesh of bears, deer and other beasts.
Some of these dug-out canoes are
in the Potomac mud no doubt now.
There were many places to paddle
not open today. Boats could move
about freely where the new govern
ment buildings are going up, and the
eastern branch was great river
800 years ago. AT night. reflected
in the undulating Potomac, were the
lights of the torches of fishermen,
and over the smouldering fires of
the primitive gridirons the catch
was smoked for the winter.
Land trails also centered in the
District, leading to the Susquehanna
and on to the West. Braddock used
an old trail to Cumberland worn
deeply in old times by Indian
moccasins.
In it's natural conditions or only
slightly aware Of the presence of
man, the District must have been
an ideal place for savage life. Every
family could have a deer day and
not decrease the herd; bear once
in while, wild trukey, what birds,
fish, roasting ears and ripe corn
would vary the fare.
The coming of the white man to
jamestown in 1907 was small en-
tering wedge into a vast territory,
and perhaps we would think it of
little effect on the District. On the
contrary, in rs years there was not
an Indian left in the valley of the
Potomac, the same story that be-
came old as the white man pushed
the remainders west. The District
was settled by hardy pioneers and
new line of history began.

BEFORE THE COMING
OF THE WHITE MAN
Abundant Proof That In
dams Had Villages on
Site Of the Capital.

There are many evidences that be-
fore the coming of the white man In
dians spoke the language of the
great Algonquin family which COW
cred the East coast, and for this rea-
son the Algonquians were met by
John Smith at jamestown and by
the Pilgrims at Plymouth, DR.. Wal
ter Hough writes, in the Washington
Post. Accustomed as we are to the
buckskin of the western Indians,
we will be surprised to know that
Powhatan's braves had nary shirt
to their backs, robes taking their
place. The women wore short skirts
and the children dispensed with
clothes. Of course, in the cold
months of winter the Indians with
drew into their houses and enjoyed
the stores of corn, smoked fish, hick-
DRY nuts and such things as they
had laid up. The houses were of
bent poles covered with mats and
were in shape like a hayrick seen
on farms.
It may seem unfortunate that the
District Of Columbia Indians left so
few traces of their life here. Archie

the barracuda, large, savage. pike

ALASKA JUNEAU'S DEVELOPMENT
 PLANS.

The plan outlined by Nlr P, R. Bradley, in an interview in The Empire that is being prosecuted Tor a three-year development by the Alaska Juneau IS very promising MT Bradley said if the deep prospecting continues favorable. and all the indica- tons are that it will there will be another large gold mill on Douglas Island, making Gastineau Channel one of the greatest gold mining sections the world has ever had Not since prior to the flood ing of the Treadwell has the mining outlook ot this section been so bright If this Alaska Juneau plan should develop as outlined Douglas Island will again come into it's own, and if pulp and paper plans are also worked out there ought to be very thriving metropolis of considerable size in this region before the next census.
 Never was the situation here more attractive to residents than now. Never before has the future looked so bright. Never before had the people so great cause to rejoice that fate directed them to Gartneau Channsl as place to live and be active.
 This all causes one to recall again, what The Empire has often observed, that the great central thing of this fine community is the Alaska Juneau-
