News from pr. Charles E. 6unnelI, President of the University of Alaska. that the schools winter mining short course will be held in Juneau comes as especially welcome information to residents of Southeast Alaska It is the first time the short course, which is conducted by the extension de- partment of the school has been held outside of the college city, Fairbanks and it should prove not only an interesting innovation for school authorities but 1t will provide residents of this district with an excellent opportunity to take advantage of the classes.
 Here in Southeast Alaska has been found the richest properties in the Territory and surveys by geologists have revealed that in this district lies much of the future great wealth yet to be un- covered With the aid that can be given through the mining short it is not only possible but entirely probable that additional men will become conversant with mining and those already in the business in small way better qualified It is the constant spread of knowledge in any endeavor that brings success and mining is no exception Through the help given as a result of college experiments and study, further and more enlightened mining development may be anticipated
 Being held in Juneau the metropolis and capital of the Territory, it will be easily accessible to those too, are located the larger properties such as the ment of Mines which should prove of assistance in making the course

SALMON MAKES GOOD AGAIN.

While the fall fishing promises to be limited as regulations have been made to protect the pink sal mon and allow them to enter the streams the total salmon fishing has been a surprisingly bright Forecast probably one of rsIe poorest years, packed, and the compares rather well with the banner year of 1894 when considers that Bristol Bay allowed only limited catch this season True, the pack last year exceeded 100000 but it is also true that Bristol Bay put up nearly 100000 that season compared to 242,- 100 cases this summer under the strict regulations which invoked to allow escapement
 Other sections in the Westward also fell little behind year ago but some places in the Southeast district such as Ketchikan and Wrangell forged ahead, giving Alaska, the whole, with the excep- a result Alaska and the nation will profit. On the basis of this years pack estimated to value in of $20000000 Alaska will be contributing a large item to the nations wealth in canned salmon alone, three quarters of the American pack being supplied from the Territory. AS the bulk of the returns go into wages and purchase of supplies the benefits shared in many places.
 To Alaska, it means the large part of her taxes. When it is noted that last year the levy paid the Territory on canned salmon reached than $852oOO it be that the tax item this taxes that go toward keeping up the schools and other Territorial institutions
 King Salmon, meaning all varieties, has come through again to prove himself so far Alaska's greatest natural asset.

FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 20, 1885

Good and adverse planetary con- ditions contend today, according to astrology. There should be. how ever, a sense of well-being in the early hours and rising optimism that benefits all.
 Business will be encouraging and new fields of activity are foreseen. Girls may be sanguine regarding employment, but they must be ex- perts in whatever vocation they choose.
 This is fortunate planetary government for labor which at the end of the year is to discover that great progress has been made by workers. Warning is given that strikes may cause loss of advantages that have already been gained.
 In certain states farmers are to profit for food prices are to rise and exports are to increase Weather and freaks of nature will affect crops, especially grains.
 Speculation in foodstuffs will be prevalent and sudden fluctuations in the stock market again are fore cast.
 Mortgages are to center interest and many will discover that de- spite government aid obligations are troublesome.
 Signs attending the last eclipse of the year on December 25, when the Sun will be obscured, presage prosperous conditions for Great Britain and the United States. Jupiter will favor workers in 1886.
 Infections of many sorts will be widespread owing to mysterious ill., nesses and painful injuries. The seers foretell many new and strange diseases as a result of any future war.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of a year of ad- vancement in business and increase in income New friendships and much happiness are indicated.
 Children born on this day prob ably will be exceedingly intelligent and conscientious. Subjects of this sign often have wide sympathies and keen sense of humor.
 David R. Locke Petroleum V. Nasby), American satirist, was born on this day, 1883. Others who have celebrated it as a birthday include Upton Sinclair, author, 1878; Anton Charles Weiss, editor, 1862.

Bozo Understands Trampas.
(Kansas City Star.)

We asked Bozo-that's our hound dog-what he thought about that story of Trampas, the blue blooded, coddled and perfumed Sealyham terrier caught incidentally in the meshes of the law and riotousy enjoying a night in Kansas Citys jail.
 Bozo wasn't impressed He said that at heart Trampas was just dog; that all the bathing and combing and puckng, all the ribbons and medals, even the appearance of his in the Who's Who" of dogdom didn't change him particle
 T don't know Trampas," Bozo said but know his type. I've lot of those dsconsoate creatures straining at leashes for their 15-mnute daily airing, and they've told me as they went by that they would be ashamed to have their an- cestors them
 T feel sorry for them. They never know the exhilaration of digging up bone other dog buried they never have known the joy of searching for and finding flea, then crushing the life out of him. But they have all the natural instincts and they would become real dogs if they had their freedom.
 There is nothing surprising about the conduct jail with lot of prisoners who like dogs and know how to treat him He free for the time being although he behind bars. There was no bath just ahead of him, there was no leash restraining him, he could bark if he cared to- he probably caught a flea or two and he probably had a bone to gnaw on instead of mushy prepared food, scien- tcally balanced. I'd fold up and quit on rations of that kind. No, people may have wondered at Tram pas reversion to type but the dogs didn't. They know dog is dog at heart matter how he's messed up with luxury
 Of course Bozo is just roughneck and may not be expressing majority opinion, especially of the owners of luxury dogs but his ideas offered for what they worth.

 Provides, in subsection (s) written to conform to the Supreme Courts decision of last Spring holding the original Swear moratorium law invalid that any farmer failing to obtain coxl- position or extension, or if he feels aggrieved by composition extension proposal, may ask to be adjudged a bankrupt. He may also ask the court that all his property, wherever located be appraised and that his exemptions, prescribed by State law be set aside to him. and that he be allowed to retain possession under supervision and control of the court, of all the remainder of his property including his encountered exemptions under terms land conditions set forth in the act.
 Authorizes courts to stay all proceedings against such farm debtor for three years, during which time the debtor shall be permitted to retain pos session of "all any part of his property, in the custody and under the supervision and control of the court, provided he pays reasonable rental for that part of the property of which he retains pos session.. The rental would be paid into court to be used first for payment of taxes and upkeep and the remainder to be distributed among the secured and unsecured creditors and applied their claims.
 Provides that at the end of three years, or prior thereto the property having been appraised, the debtor could regain unencumbered possession of it by paying into court the amount of the appraisal of the property of which he retains possession, in cluding the amount of encumbrances on his exemp- tons, up to the amount paid on appraisal less the amount paid on principal"
 Directs that upon request in writing by any secured creditor creditors holding lien on the property the court shall order it's sale at public auction.

c. o. P. WITHOUT AN ISSUE.

Senator Ebert D. Thomas of Utah seems to have prcked the Republican balloon fairly in the center Said he in Constitution Day address:
 Whenever in the history of our country
 men carried political campaigns on
 slogan like let's stand by the Constitution"
 1t has been and is today positive proof that
 real issues not available
 That, of course is the situation in a nutshell Gathered at the wailing wall, the Republicans haven't been able to dig up issue so they begin re-reading the Constitution. As Senator Thomas pointed out it has been the history of those with out real purpose.
