DIMOND NOT OPPOSED.

Unless some aspiring politician should decide to enter the field independent candidate, Delegate Anthony J. Dimond will not be opposed for reelection This assured when the period for filing of declarations for party nominations ex- pired last Tuesday without any opposition in his own party and with no Republican candidate appear ing It is of course not impossible that will file independent but the odds are that none will for it is certain that candidate would have any chance against MT. Dmond unless supported by we'll organized group. If the outlook wasn't sufficiently encouraging for the Republican Party to put up a candidate, it is even less encouraging for anyone without a party label and partisan backing.
 This will be the first time in the Territory s history that any candidate for Delegate to Congress has faced election with the field all to himself. That is a well-deserved tribute to Delegate Dimond, deserved because of the enormous amount of work he has done and will have to do in Washington in the next few months He continue to devote all of his energy and time to that work without having to prepare for political battle next Fall. Thus, both he and the Territory gathers because of the unique position in which he finds himself
 candidate for the major political office of Alaska without opposition.

DICKENS'S LIFE OF OUR LORD"
 TO BE PUBLISHED.

Of unusual interest is the announcement that the publication of Charles Dickenss Life of Our Lord" has been sanctioned by the family of the late Sir Henry Dickens the great English novest's last surviving child Sir Henry's will left the manuscript to his wife and authorized the family to decide by majority vote whether to publish it. It has agreed that it shall be published sometime this year
 Dickens began to write what he described a "Children's New Testament" in 1846 His purpose was to let his children know something about the history of Jesus Christ" His family has since treasured the work and never allowed it to go outside of the family circle
 Written in Dickenss hand, the manuscript contains about 50 pages and 13 chapters Sir Henrys own wish to have it published so that thou sands of children throughout the world might be allowed to share it. Out of deference to his fathers expressed desire, however he felt he could not have the pleasure His idea was that the family would be more free to permit publication. That they have done wisely, there will be few to dispute.

What Is a Planetarium?
(New York world-T -Telegram0

The Planetarium to be built at cost of $800, 900 at the Museum of Natural History, named for Charles Hayden, who contributed $15000O will be heavenly in ways than one
 It will, in the first place, be heavenly to the families whose providers will get work the building and in the production of the costly equip ment and instruments.
 It will be heavenly next, in that it's vaulted dome will contain replica of the heavenly bodies -an artificial Armament of the stars the planets and constellations.
 To the average person the stars are now but twinkling dots in the sky. Only such heavily de- fined formations the Milky Way and the Big Dipper are generally identifiable But at the new Planetarium children and grown-ups will be able to get on intimate terms with the heavenly bodies and to call them by their first names-Mercury, Venus Mars, Saturn, Uranus Neptune, etc, etc.
 In an hours time the spheres of all the heavens in majestic drama will revolve into view.
 Each his astronomer walking in the night will be of adventure to those who at the Planetarium have the astral strangers visiting the earth and placed them their respective places and orbits.

Picks and ShOvels.
(Anchorage Timesl

Reports come from all parts of Alaska that there will be a better demand for picks and shovels throughout Alaska the coming summer than for many year. The boom in gold and revival of mining is responsible. The Territory is said not to have been low picks and shoves and other miners supplies especially in the interior, for years.
 This is great news The behind the pick is the man behind the future of Alaska. His kind are not plentiful they should be- but if the golden tide continues to rise, Alaska may expect to thousands added to the prospecting army within her borders the next 12 months.
 Thirty years ago picks and shovels, gold pans, gold scales buckskin pokes and all that com mon in this big Territory With the advent of the dredges and hydraulics, fewer of these old indes- pensabes of the individual placer in evidence-but there is promise that with lower grade gravels being made profitable by the higher price of gold such articles again will be in demand.
 The spirit of '98 is still alive, and with the Sourdoughs to lead the new movement Alaska will set a pace to make the world sit up and take notice.
