The Oasis of COsmic Life.
(New York T'imeS.)

Again word comes rom the Lowell Observatory in Flagstaff that there is possibility of life >on other planets with the exception perhaps of Mars at any rate life in any such form we know it.. The evidence gathered by planetary spectrum photo graphs is that the atmospheres of Saturn and Jupiter consist largely of deadly gases not found lon the earth that even if an earth-born creature Icould take a Jules Verne-ike journey to either of these the great cold and deadly gases would snuff out life" If he carried oxygen for breathing pur- pose an explosion would at once dispose of it. The Lowell reporters say that the said atmospheres may be likened to "the interior of gassy mine mixed with an exploded ice factory" and all at tenn lperature that would make Admiral Byrds Antarctic climate seem temperate. One scientist, letting his imagination play pictured Jovian oceans of liquid ammonia rolling up their waves queer chemicals. Of Uranus and Neptune the Arizona astronomers do not speak with the certitude, but what light these two remoter planets shed compels them to hold that there is no possibility of life on these spacious and distant spheres. And Pluto, the most distant and most recently discovered, is Qke Mer- cury the suns nearest neighbour without atmosphere, being too small and having "too little gravity to hold on to gases Venus the other hand, has much atmosphere" but can support only such life as can exist without water oxygen and can thrive the waste product of respiration earth carbon dioxide This narrowS the possibility down to Mars-or, to use the language of the scientific re- port Mars is the best best for life elsewhere than on this planet. Mars has clouds and water, but less than earth" And the wide range of tenn perature, from 65 to 70 at midday to below zero by night, suggests intolerable climate for such being man, if lichens fungi strange Martian germs might find this habtable place.
 We may thus think of ourselves as the sole living human inhabitants of solar system and wonder the that with such common inherit ance we do not make better use of it. There may be, of leading astronomers has said, planets circling about other suns, inhabited by intelligent beings of sort having had longer period of evolution and so having advanced mentally and in other ways far beyond the masters of the new little tenth-rate planet Earth

 Whereon our loves and shames begotten and buried,
 Our first-sime and ancestral dust. | Peeled of this rind it would still keep its mo- tions in Gods orrery undisturbed, but SO flayed it would cease to be the most significant creation in all solar system, and for aught know the only "oasis of life" in all the universe of universes

BUREAU OF TERRITORIAL AND
 INSULAR AFFAIRS.

few days ago, an Associated Press news report from Washington. D. O.. announced the creation oi
 Bureau of Territorial and Insular Affairs, modelled somewhat after the famous Colonial Office of Great Britain, which would have charge of all affairs relating to Territories and possessions It is to be established in the Interior Department.
 Just how far this bureau will go in its admin istration of Territorial affairs not indicated Whether it is designed to consolidate all Federal activities in the Territories under the agency not disclosed And if that should be the pur- pose, it will be necessary to get some laws through Congress before its objective be achieved. Fol instance the Department of Commerce has been designated by Congress administrative agent fol the Government in handling the Alaska fisheries and fur seals. The Department of Agriculture has the game animals and birds well as the forests Before jurisdiction these could be transferred to the new bureau Congress certainly would have to act.
 The organization of the bureau, its scope oi authority and it's methods of procedure are matters of uncommon interest and much importance to the Territory. A detailed announcement regarding tht plans and policies is awaited with interest.

Odds and the Glory.
Cincinnati Enquirer.)

Now that stout hearted Cavacade has added the
 Arlington Park classic to his easy victories in the
 Chesapeake States, the Kentucky Derby, the Am ercan Derby and the Detriot Derby, he has taken
 la place in American hearts along with Man O War.
 His popularity may be measured accurately from the
 eloquent testimony that $2 pari-mutuel tickets paid
 $2.74 s216 and $214 respectively, straight, place and show.
 Those who never buy ticket may derive in spiration from horse which was caught in jam at the start and crowded back to ast-last in the back stretch-only to extend himself circle

 qualities may be identified with himself? These superlative attributes nborn. It has
 taken at least three hundred years of astute cross
 ing of blood lines to evoke them with any certitude of running true to type. Even so the chances of la Man O War Cavalcade remote. little heralded research by the Carnegie Institute has been proceeding since 1923 at Cold Springs Harbor in the Blue Grass The genetics department has examined systematically the breeding and racing records of 100000 leading horses all the world and in various periods to reduce to mathe-

APPEALS SHOULD BE GIVEN
 CONSIDERATION.

The appeals of the seine fishermen and the salmon packers in this vicinity for an extension of the salmon fishing should be seriously considered by the United States Bureau of Fisheries The seners base their plea on the fact that to date the runs of fish have been so small that they have been unable to earn any money and face the charity list next winter unless they permitted to fish longer than the normal season. The packers point out that the usual had not materalized up to about the end of the season, and further, that great mass of fish is just now entering the inside waters through Icy Strait
 Both the employees and employers have lot of justification behind their appeals The seiners are dependent upon their takes for living. Their testimony and that of the packers agree that the runs to date have been relatively unimportant. The packs proof of the correctness of their claim. Indeed, the studies of employees of the bureau substantiate it.
 The reported big run was first heralded last Saturday by Warden Haley who wired from western Icy Strait where the had already ended, that a good run was in progress at 1nian Island and on the north shore of Icy Strait. Supt F1oe. of the Harris plank at Hawk Inlet reported Icy Strait lone mass of fish, and Supt Minard reported a lift of 85,O00 fish from single trap in that district last Saturday
 Apparently the conditions prevailing al m 0 s t everywhere in Southeast Alaska in 1880 being duplicated this year. Then the pink runs were unusually late. An almost unprecedented move ment set in just the was about to end. Streams everywhere were overcrowded with fish. The late destroyed heavy percentage of the spawn of the earlier Instead of tending to promote conservation, the late fish actually in jured the supply of early fish. The packers might well have been permitted to the surplus since it would have benefited the of conservation and turned into trade channels fish that spawned and died without gain to the fisheries.
 That may not be the case again this year How ever the bureau ought to check up the runs very closely and if there is really heavy run of fish now in progress, it justifiably grant the appeals for an extension of the season, since to do so will aid employees well employers and at the same time further the interests of conservation.

 The American Banker estimates that with the withdrawal of l8s banks from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation temporary fund on June so t,,ere are nearly 1900 banks fully open in the T7,t.d states which are not members of the deposit sre,rance system The total number of banks oper .,d unrestricted as of June 30. last. is estimated

PAIR OF MULES PRINCIPALS IN
 HOMESTEAD FILE

KILDARE, Okla, Jan. 24.-Es- tablishing the whereabouts of a pair of mules proved M. P. Dew ey's claim to homestead in early days, when the Cherokee strip in Northern Oklahoma was opened for settlement by a run" second only in importance to the famous land opening of 1889.
 In 1893 Dewey, his father, and a brother made the run to the home, where he still lives, using team of fast horses hitched to a spring wagon, and leading third as a spare"
 Later, a court contest of the claim developed. A neighbor hay ing seen a pair of mules at the farm and assuming the run was made with the mules, testified in court that mules could not nave run from Arkansas City and ar rived at the time Dewey swore he filed his claim.
 Dewey called a girl from her farm home in Kansas as witness Ehe testified she Watered the mules at her home at noon the day oi the run, and that they could moi have been used in the race.
