Our Lazy Authors.
(NeW York Times.)


 MT Calsworthy, sailing for home after pro- longed visit made two remarks which take issue with what perhaps the two most popular mo- tions about the United States In this country we are supposed to adore work and to be devoid of beauty. As to the second point, MT. Galsworthy told the shipnews that he found New York more beautiful than ever" and that "seen from high up the beauty is amazing" This tribute in itself is not novel. Many years ago Henry w. New inson wrote memorable prose hymn to New York, the most beautiful of modern cities" And even MT. Chesterton who has great love for cities and modernism, observed a little while ago that the impression produced by New York City is truly Babylonan. So, considering that have the beauty of New Yorks towers, and the beauty of the Rockies, and of Vermont, and of the Southern Appalachians, and of the Grand Canyon, and of the Yosemite, and the Yellowstone, it would appear that the American people not quite engulfed in the of ugliness conjured up by our young est, most dsilusoned sons.
 In Arizona said MT Gasworthy to the report CTS, T was able to put in quite good long spell of work the sequel to the novel now appearing serialy." John Galsworthy already at work on the sequel to novel which is appearing serally raises the second question whether Americans really work as hard they pretend to do Whatever may be true of other occupations, it is beyond question that American authors in the mass do not begin to work as hard as do their English and Continental fel- lows. Since 1920 Sinclair Lewis has to his credit six novels and a little book on Coolidge Villa Gather has done six novels of her own moderate sized type in the same time. With this compare the unflagging industry of a Galsworthy with more than half dozen Forsythe volumes since the war and perhaps dozen plays. Arnold Bennett's es- tate of half million dollars is in greater part the register of perfectly enormous application He has fifteen books to his credit since 1920 and vast amount of journalistic work. Hugh Walpole since 1920 has eighteen volumes listed in the British Who's Who"
 We are not without our hard working authors Cabell has more than dozen books since 1920 and Harrington has nine books and half dozen vol umes of plays. But these are the elder men who carry on the older European tradition of laborious- ness. Our younger writers, possibly due to the greater rewards of success, make great how-de- do about turning out fairly long novel once every two years; and for this they must have European trips Winters in California and Florida Summers in Vermont and Maine, city penthouses and what not. What penthouses had Voltaire who had time to write novels plays histories pamphlets letters by the thousand encyclopedias what not or Balzac of the monumental enterprises; Trolope or Dick ens who punctuated threedecker novels with editing journals featuring, play-acting; Perez Gados, who did five series of "Episodios Nacionales" in something like fifty novels? Can it be that our America authors waste too much time attending literary teas?

JUNEAU SHOCKED BY AIRPLANE
 TRAGEDY.

The death of Steven Selig and the injuring of C. J. Alexander. Al Dano and Pilot James Dodson in an arpane wreck Ketchikan has shocked the communities of Southeast Alaska. The dead and injured airplane passengers have long been prominent highly respected and well liked citizens of this part of Alaska.
 While MT. Selig better known at Ketchikan than at Juneau, he had many warm friends in this neighborhood and many others regarded him highly as a close relative of J. R. Hickman, who has spent much time here member of the House of Representatives and Territorial Senate and as a business and friendly visitor.
 MT Alexander and Mir Dano resided in this vicinity for many years the former as one of the owners of the old Hoonah Packing Company with caneries at Hoonah and Gambler Bay. He was Superintendent of the Hoonah cannery for several years. For a more of years he has been a regular visitor here and for sometime he was a resident of Juneau MT. Dano spent much time in Juneau when he was Superintendent of the Tee Harbor cannery before it burned several years ngo Both MT. Alexander and MT. Dano have hosts of friends here who hoping for their early re- covery

USUAL METHOD OF
 ROASTING COFFEE MAKES FLAVOR VARY
But Controlled Roasting, Patented by Hills Bros.,
 Prevents Variation

The elusive flavor of coffee is completely captured by a roasting process invented and used exclu- sively by Hills Bros.
 This process roasts few pounds at a time instead of in bulk. A constant stream of expertly blended coffees is introduced into the roaster lin automatically measured lots, and passes through in a steady flow, roasting a little at a time. The speed of operation and temperature remain the same with the result that Hills Bros. Coffee is always uniform.
 The common bulk method of roasting cannot develop the uniform flavor that Hills Bros.' patented, continuous process develops. For this reason, no other coffee has the same wonderful flavor of Hills Bros. Coffee.
 Grocers everywhere sell Hills Bros. Coffee in the vacuum can which keeps it fresh always. Air, which destroys the flavor of coffee, is taken from this can and kept out. Coffee packed in ordinary cans, even if air-tight, does not stay fresh. Ask for Hills Bros. Coffee by name and look for the Arab the trade-mark-on the can.

GLOOMY OUTLOOK FOR WHEAT
 FARMERS.

Late estimates of the Department of Agriculture do not look rosy for wheat prices They show there will probably be carry July of 290000000 bushels against 275,O0O00o bushels last year. The 1881 crop will exceed that of last year by 4O0O0- 900 bushels 97,0O000O bushels higher than the last five years average. The total supply in the United States for the coming year arrived at by adding this years production to the surplus on hand will be 1l15000OO0 bushels.
 In addition to this indicated increase Tn the surplus wheat in the United States, the Boston News Bureau says apparent surpuses are indicated in Canada of 216,000O0o bushels Argentine l93- 100000 Australia l27 100000 total increase in these countries over last year of approximately 10000 O0O No statistics availae on the probable outlook in Russia
 The Boston News Bureau says the Farm Board is not to support the 1881 wheat crop unless there shall be further legislation, and that there is a tedency in Europe to purchase wheat from other sources than the United States Therefore unless something intervenes to curtail the expected large 1881 crop it declares we might expect even lower prices next year than we have had this year It sees a continuation of this sort of thing until the American farmers confine the wheat crop to the domestic demand and thus get the advantage of the tariff of AZ cents bushel.

PROPOSED THANE ROAD CAUSES JOY.

The announcement Of M. D. Williams, District Engineer of the Bureau of Public Roads, that an 18-foot standard highway to cost approximately $200000, connecting Juneau and Thane, will be con- sructed and that construction will be launched this summer, causes joy in this section. The improve ment is needed and it's building will give employ ment to many people that need the work.
 Thane is already the most populous suburb of Juneau this side of Gastineau Channel, and its importance promises to increase time goes on. Such road the Bureau of Public Roads pro poses to construct will contribute to the development of the community It will increase the zeal of those who contemplate the establishment of pulp and paper mills Gastineau Channel, for it will be evidence that the Bureau of Public Roads is pre- pared and willing to build good roads where de- velopment' indicates their need.
 Juneau approves very heartily MT. Williams plan with respect to the Thane road she has approved of his administration in the past.

'P.-T.A. AND PUPIL EXHIBIT DRAWS
 L ARCE CROWD
Illustrated Lecture Post poned to Give Time for
 Viewing Display

At least 800 persons last evening .ock advantage of the opportunity to attend the double attraction of- fered by the Parent Teacher Asso- ciation's program and the pupils class work exhibit in the Juneau Grade School.
 The Parent-Teacher meeting in the auditorium on the top floor ot the school building was preceded and succeeded by the exposition of children's work in the gymnasium on the first floor of the structure, and the Parent Teacher program was curtained so as to give plenty of time for the viewing of the pupils exhibit.
 The Parent Teacher program was of exceptional merit. Brief atten- ton was given to the transaction of association business, and then there was community singing of Alaska, My Alaska" A piano solo, The Two Larks," by Chopin, was artistically played by Helen Torkelson. A reading, "Awfully Lovely Philosophy" was delightful ly rendered by Mabel Nigh Ranum.
 Excellent Style Show
 "The Style Show" was of unusual interest. It was staged by about 20 girls of the eighth grade and of the freshman and sophomore class es, who served as models of school made house and street dresses and play clothes. Quite uniformly, the garments were artissically designed and well-made. The girls were hampered in their modelling efforts by lack of room on the stage.
 Piano music, accompanying the modelling, was played by Miss Mar jorie Tillotson.
 An illustrated lecture, Tn the Land of Santa Claus" which was to have been given by Elmer Reed was postponed until a later date in order to allow ample time last night for the viewing of the exhi- bition of class room work.
 Class Room Exhibits
 This display was from both grades and high schools. It in cluded pupils papers on spelling arithmetic, En g | is h composition, French, Latin, mechanical draw ing, typewriting and numerous oth- CT subjects.
 The home economic department was represented by preserved foods, and innumerable samples of plain and fancy sewing. The manual training class displayed a varied as- sortment of furniture, all both use ful and ornamental. Two boats were the subjects of many praiseWorthy comments.
 All in all, the exhibit of class room work reflected great credit on both teachers and pupils.

Spain's Alternatives.
Cincinnati Enouirer. )

The genial monarch of Spain had scarcely left broke out among rival republican factions Political authority was transferred formally to provisional Junta Of Moderate Republicans and Socialists men of intelligence and imbued with keen responsi- bility to their people and to vested economic in- terests. By its vigorous repression of disorder and rejection of Communist overtures the Cabinet of Alcala Zamora has hown that it seeks a middle path between autocratic monarchy and pro,etarian- ism.
 Yet the danger is great that Spain will swing abruptly to political and economic radicalism in the first blush of freedom. Labor unions in many Spanish cities have been the mainstay of the revolution, and some of them are definitely Com munist in conviction The bourgeois class in Spain IS notoriously weak, so wide is the cleavage be- tween very wealthy and very poor
 No less serious, the machinery of administration n Spain is keyed to highly centralized authority Autocratc rule is the easiest way out even for a Government committed to democracy The tempta- ton will be very great to concentrate power in the hands of the professor-lawyer clique now in office Primarily an agricultural people and a people who live gracefully and leisurely the Spanish cer- lanly are not suited to any collective theory of political organization. Moderate Republican lead ersmp, II 1t can fight off the extremists on either side can institute reforms in education agriculture and finance which will lay the foundations for a stsoe, prosperous and democratic nation But can It hoo on to effective control of the country through period of chaotic readjustment and popu- lar upheava?
