ROOM FOR BREWERY.

The erection of a small brewery here seems de- manded by local conditions. Thus the announcement of G. E. Krause, John Green and Oscar Harri, ncorporators of Mt. Juneau Brewing Company, that plans have been perfected for such enterprise is reasonable enough. That there is opportunity in this community for the project is wellnigh universally admitted locally There is sufficient de- mand to warrant such a plant as is contemplated by them Its product ought to be manufactured at a cost that would permit the company to meet any competition from the States. It avoid high freight rates on beer in glass and thousands of dollars now being expended for transportation
 Messrs. Krause, Green and Harri successful business men, They have resided here many years and have been engaged in active enterprises all of that time They have acquired substantial prop erty interests. They have the confidence of their fellows. There is no reason why, united, they should not carry their latest undertaking through to a successful and profitable elimination.

 Do you mean to say 1t was be- fore he'd managed to tell you what the danger was?"
 "Yes."
 Look here." said Lorn, looking curiously at me. Maybe I'd better not stay now. You look feverish- maybe that wound is worse than they think"
 "Prn all right. But we've got to do something about Sue. She's wandering about the hotel any place -she's with the maid now. We've got to watch her. We've got to plan"
 Did you have chance to tell her what Marcel had saidY
 "Oh. yes, I warned her. But she's got too much courage for her own good"
 "You don't do credit to Miss Tal- ly's intelligence" said Lorn dryly. He was still watching me rather cautiously. and 1 remembered that I'd called her Sue and had probably shown degree of anxiety about her which he considered out of propor. tion.

 But it didn't matter.
 "Get her." l insisted. "Or will. I've been sitting here thinking hor. TOTS. and don't like her to go about the place alone"

Partners.
(Boston News Bureau.)

tBoSton News Bureau)
 One after another representative American indus tries have more less formally pghted what might be called troth with the Federal Government. Solicited to become partners" they have not at all coyly, but very freely and frankly answered "Yes"
 The initial acceptance, at least "in principle , was expressed by the cotton textile industry A third of it, or about ten out of thirty million spindes, (and it has the most individual workers of any major industry expressed rather early in May consent for such partnership, where earlier there had been general antipathy toward any form of governmental regulation There was thus accepted the central idea of each industry's put ting it's own house harmoniousy in order, with the Federal power kept in leash to whip any recalci- trants in line. True, there still some disagree ments as between North and South, notably as to minimum wages; but the hope is felt that these may yet be ironed out.
 The steel industry is of quite the same senti- ments President Schwab of the American Iron and Steel Institute said at its annual meeting: Speaking for the steel industry I say that we gladly accept this offer of partnership, because with this offer of partnership and though our revtazed institute we should speedily and effectively be able to see brought into line those selfish interests which persist in unfair practices contrary to sound public policy and ruinous to industry" It is this issue of containing stray and ire sponsible factors in business which have so long Ibeen flagrantly misbehavng in one way or another to observe an agreed code of fair play and proper practice that undoubtedly has most appeal for many Large segments of American business The influence is undoubtedly operative with the members of the Drug Institute of America Inc, established the mechanism through which |all divisions of the two-bion drug industry will lco-operate to maintain fair wages and to ban de- structive cut-throat competition Its efforts will be allied with those of the Government to the same general end
 So also the copper producers are reported as now inclined to seek again to compose their own differences and may seek a siezable degree of Federal control to bring their industry finally "out |of the red"
 Uncle Sam was once rather suspiciousy viewed as taskmaster. Now he is quite warmly welcomed as partner

WELCOME TO COMMISSIONER.

In welcoming Frank T. Bell, United States Com missioner of Fisheries The Empire speaks 1t IS sure for all of this community and Alaskans generally when it wishes for him a long and successful tenure So intimately is the office he holds con- nected with Territorial welfare that at times many of us are prone to forget that it is national post, and that his duties comprise many which have no bearing on the Territory. His authority, however, over Alaskan fisheries virtually absolute and upon the regulations issued by the Department of Com merce at his request much depends. They can make or break the salmon herring and shell fish industries And they can help or hamper Alaskan fishermen in earning their daily bread
 For these reasons, Alaskans more interested in Commissioner Bells administration than people in other sections of the country. He is starting it in manner that appeals to them and that augurs well for the future. He has already won their regard by his prompt adoption of policy of giving Alaskans opportunity to present their views in fishery questions. His immediate offer of cooperation with the people of this Territory touches responsive chord in them. All of this indicates fairness of mind, desire to get at the bottom of the facts of the industry and to apply those facts to the betterment of the people of Alaska as well as to the fisheries themselves and the industry.
 None realizes better than do, the magnitude of the task that is his None is better acquainted with it's problems Charged he is by law with conservation of the fishery resources, and required specifically to provide for a 50 per cent escape ment of salmon to the spawning beds, it is we'll nigh impossible for him to please everyone all the time. Most Alaskans know this. They appreciate of the difficulties of his position. All they ask of him is fair treatment which we are entirely confident he will accord them And in return, he can depend on them to cooperate with him, to aid him in carrying out his important work.
 Commissioner Bell, in the few days he has been in Alaska, has made splendid impression by the manner in which he has conducted his public hear ngs his willingness to meet everyone interested in fisheries subjects and discuss them frankly and fully. If he does not find many people here seeking to have audience with him, it will be because locally we not as closely associated with the salmon canning industry other communities are, and not by of any lack of real interest in the fisheries. The Empire welcomes him to Juneau and know we speak the desire of it's people when we invite him to visit often and make his visits long his duties elsewhere will permit.

"Lovschiem!" She had given me glance that held kind of derfsive scorn and shrugged her shoulders and repeated: "Lovschiem! Here, I'll cut the meat for you"
 She did. and was gone. But it oc- cured to me that Madame Grethe herself was quite capable of under taking and executing just such a cold-blooded murder as l had wit. messed. She had plenty of cold nerve and was. 1 suspected. funda- mentally an actress. Added to that, she had more brains in her little finger than Lovschiem had in his whole great hulking body. . But there was no clue leading to her. And as to that. there was only Lovschiem's presence and the fact that l suspected him of knowing the unidentified murdered man that led to him.
 It was just then that Lorn ar. rived. was glad to see him. My head cleared. and things were bet. ter.
 He was very quiet. The fiery. quick-spoken. gllttering-eyed man of the excited moments following the murder had again lapsed into this unobtrusive, toneless nonentity of man.
 "MOW then" said Lorn. Lets
 ~ hear the whole story. Had Marcel managed to tell you any thing?"
 Yes. But not enough. He only told me that some towels had been found the morning after the mur- der, and that the towels had been used. but were in supposedly empty room. That Father Robart's alibi was as false as his red beard looks. And at the last that Sue Tally ather Robart's aIibi was as false
 as his beard looked.

 She had put on shawl and hur- ried out into the corridor and to- ward the gallery running along the well of the lounge. She had come, in other words. directly along the path which the escaping murderer must have taken. And she had seen nothing.
 At the last I began to think they were going to drag us all to the police court; and I felt so dizzy that I didn't much care. But they did finally leave without taking me along. which was incredible.
 It was true. of course. that they left a guard of several policemen and warned us all against trying to escape in a manner that was, as Sue remarked later. almost as con. elusive as arrest. And 1t was true, too. that I was their principal sus- pect; was.. indeed. their only sus. pect. but the doctor told them fiat. ly that there was no need of taking me to jail just then.

From The Empire

JUNE 13, 1913 Fred Cliff, purser of the Geor- gia, while out walking on the Sal- mon Creek road the day before. met a brown bear near Burridge's farm. While the appearance of the animal caused the transportation man to think longingly of his berth aboard ship, it did not attempt to molest him but got out of the way as quickly as possible.
 General Manager O. L. Dickson, of the White Pass, said the low rates on the Yukon had come to stay. His company, he said, had entered the lower river as a per- manent proposition and would continue to operate there and re- duce freight rates as the volume of business warranted.
 A. K. McDaniel, the well-knoWn mining expert of Denver, Colorado, arrived in Juneau on the Princess Sophia expecting to spend the sum- mer in the vicinity. MT. McDaniel was the expert who represented the underwri t CTS and examined the Perseverance properties at the time the deal was put through by B. L. Thane with the Jackling Holden interests. He was looking for an- other mining property and said that if he could find another Per severance he would be satisfied. He represented Boston and New York capital.
 The City Council decided in fa- yCr of safe and sane Fourth Of July and provided that there should be no fire works display and that it would be unlawful to use fire arms, fire crackers, rockets or any other combustible within the city limits.
