Good Roads and Hotels


"The commerce of Cincinnati with
Philadelphia" a Cincinnati CORE
spondent wrote to Philadelphia pa
per 100 years ago, has greatly in
creased during the present season. On
converslng with many Of our mer-
chants who have returned from the
East we find that scarcely one in
five Of them went to Baltimore. The
reasons are unanswerable. The Cum
berland road is in most villainous
state, while the stage fare and the
tavern fare are both much higher than
on the road from Pittsburgh to Phila-
delphia, and not so good. The road
from Pittsburgh to Philadelphia, we
are informed by a gentleman, Mary
lander, who has just returned from
the latter city, is In excellent order,
the stage fare reduced, and the tav-
ern fare cheap and good, and so great
was the travel upon it, that, though
-FOUR or five stages started from Phil
adelphia every morning for Pitts
burgh, he was obliged to secure a
seat week beforehand. In another
year the Pennsylvania railroads and
canals will have connected the Ohio
river with Philadelphia and, when in
creasing trade of this river shall have
once taken its course, 1t will be diff
cult to divert to another."- detroit

Plinlsoll Deserving of

4
U.r Title "SeaInen's Friend"
By agreement among several of the
more important maritime nations Of
the world, the Plimsoll line, marking
the safe loading point for vessels, has
come almost into universal use. 1t
has been the means of saving the lives
Of thousands of seamen. Before Sam
uel Plimsoll made his stand for hui
mainly, seamen were at the mercy Of
scoundrelly owners who thought only
in terms of insurance. No thought Of
the men who would go down with their
ships stayed their hands. sra =.
Then came Samuel Plimsoll. 1.-THE
Seamen's Friend" He had been pros
porous; he had known disaster. From
a position Of afiuence he had come to
common lodging houses. In them he
met seamen and heard their stories.
He was reused to a great anger and
there and then took an oath that he
would never rest until he had re-
vealed the villainy of the "ship-knack-
ers" 43i" -
He knew that before he could
achieve anything he had to get into
parliament. That meant money. Out
Of the pit Of poverty he climbed. He
was elected to parliament and devoted
his energies to the measure he had
suggested for saving the lives of the
seamen. In the face of violent oppo-
sition he prevailed and the meas
ure became law requiring mark on
the hull indicating the safety loading
line. 4. 1855

Word "Camera" Derived
From Reuaiesauca To

The primitive Aryan root "llam"
meant ito bend" and the Greek
camera" derived from it, was used
to denote anything with an arched
cover or roof. Hence came the Latin
camera" meaning "a ROOM" and ulti-
mately, through French, the English
chamber" A common toy of the rich
in Renaissance times was dark room
letting in light only through small
lens, which threw an inverted image Of
the scene outside on the wall opposite
1t. This was called a camera OBJ
scura" or dark room" The problem
for the inventors of photography was
to make permanent the image in the
camera obscura"; hence the instru-
ment with which they ultimately ac-
complished it was called camera"

Double-Moated Castle

Notwithstanding its rather remote
position on the island Of Jutland, in
Denmark, on the banks Of the Linn.
ford, Castle Spottrup has lured many
visitors to its walls of recent years.
Although its age and builder have been
forgotten, 1t has been there for many
centuries, and is one of the best dou-
ble1moated castles Of Europe. Its d.
viding bulwark of earth on the eastern
side reaches almost to the caves of
the structure, and with its grass-clad
rampants adds immensely to the inn
preston one receives of its ancient
formidable strength. 1t is only re-
stored in part, and the visitor can
easily visualize its ancient extent and
form.

The burrowing mammal known as
the armadillo is still quite common in
South and tropical America. But like
lot Of modern things they are of the
miniature type. Their ancestors or
cousins, however, were giants. These

Potential Sugar Crop

About 100000 sugar maple trees in
the Dominion of Canada are tapped
annually and the maple sugar output
for 1880 was valued at more than a
million and a quarter dollars. The

Canada where there are approximately
6OOO0,OOO trees and fewer than one
quarter Of this number are tapped so

as a budget in name only", Gov ernor Parks strongly urged the legislature to take steps to remedy the situation. Under the present method, he said, excessive esti- mates are invited in the hope they will by good fortune be allowed.
 He asked for real budget board composed of Governor, Treasurer, and Auditor, Empowered to Sub- init a real budget in which every request for funds is supported by written justification. However. this board should have authority to de mand any information needed to determine whether an appropria- tion is justified. Until this is au- thorized no one will know whether or not proposed expenditures will be commensurate with probable revenues"
 In closing the Governor drew attention to "A lice in the Wonderland" system, or systems, of fiscal accounting that are now re- quired by various Territorial sta tutes.
Seward daily gateway., 1931-03-04
Continuing, he said: However,

Continuing, he said: However, before such a plan can be consid- cred it will be necessary for the Territory to have an acceptable organization Qualified to meet the requirements that may be imposed by the Federal government and I am of the opinion that this cannot be achieved under the present sys- tenn of selecting the Commissioner of Education
 Pays Own Way
 Boxing as a Territorial inStitu- tion," the Governor said, pays it's own way Members of the boxing commission have diligently and effectively performed their duties and the receipts deposited by them with the Treasurer, exceed appro- priation made for the commis- sion's expenses.
 The Historical Library and Mus cum in it's specially designed quar- ters in the new capitol is able to play it's part more effectively. The Governor recommended that the building formerly occupied by 1t and other Territorial offices, be loaned to the city of Juneau for a public library building, provided the municipality pays the costs ol it's upkeep. The present site, he added, should be a part of the park that some day will be created in front of the new capitol and he suggested the legislature authorize the transfer of title to the lot to the Federal government when and all other realty in the block is acquired as 8 park site.

funds made available were lnSuf- ficient. In fact, altho the rate was held to the then existing basis, due to the increased number ot pen sioners, small deficit was incurr- ed that the present session will have to take care of.
 Under the existing system ot awarding allotments, the Cover nor said it was not possible to pre- vent payment of pensions to per sons not entitled to them, and he asked the legislature to authorize the use of tax collectors, now en- ployed, to investigate questionable cases.
 In the past two years r percent of all disbursements by the Terri tory were made for the relief of destitution ana care of indigents including pensions, Pioneers Home, dependent children. The appropriations for these purposes totaled $4O6,O00 in the past two years. With the exception of the Pioneers Home, the system was described as unsatisfactory and remedies were suggested.
 Federal Highway Act
 At some future time it is cer- tain we shall be expected to come under the Federal Highway Act, and we may as well begin to con- sider this natter, the Governor i said. One of the requirements that must be met is the existence of an administrative organization acceptable to the Federal Govern ment. In my opinion this will b. impossible under the present sys- tenn of selecting 8 Highway Engin- ger. The proper discharge of the duties of that office demand, inso- far as possible, that 1t should be removed from politics.
 Change In Schools
 A similar suggestion was made regarding the Commissioner of Education. "The dual system of schools existing in the Territory is not now satisfactory, he contend ed. Eventually" he added, the a d m ministration of the h. dian schools will be turned over t1 the Territory under an arrange ment whereby the Federal govern ment will defray the expenses ot operating them and of erecting new buildings, and the Territory will assume the cost of admins trative overhead which is small.

and a number of recommendation made on several subjects.
 Growth In Expenses


 made on several subjects.
 Growth In Expenses
 Broadly, the Governor depicted the expenditures for schools and social welfare, which together ab- Sorb 65 per cent of all Territorial disbursements, as showing high rate of increase in the past several years. In 1917 the Territory ex- pended out of it's treasury for edu- cational purposes only $75,521.4s, and in the school year of 1929-30 disbursements for the same pur- pose, without including the Alaska College amounted to $544, ,731. 1.37, or a seven fold increase. In the same period schools increased 100 percent and enrolment less than that.
 For dependent children the Ter ritory is expending curre mt ly about $2,3OO per month on l42 children. Fifty five thousand dol lars were appropriated in 1929 and $7O,O0O will be needed for the next biennium.
 Total expenses for the Pioneers Home were $1O5, 150.53 and $l00,000 is asked for the next two years. The construction of modern institution which will care for both men and women is indicated. The Governor said there IS now $171 ,000 in the building fund and. finances permitting, wel reach $211 ,000 by 1883. He asked for the appointment of committee to prepare plans for the structure.
 Pension Roll Large There are 35l individuals on the pension roll. Although the 1929 legislature increased the suaxt- mum monthly allowance from $25 to $35 the board of trustees was not able to raise the scale as the
