including Jewish, snapper, yell

BARGE LINE PROPOSED

We are pleased to announce that move IS on foot for the purpose of delivering freight in ports at greatly reduced rates compared with those now eXtor- ed by the present line vessels Capitalists of Seattle and elsewhere are taking the matter in hand ana It is their opinion that by the proper consummatlon of their plans the freight rate be reduced more than half The plan now under consideration is the build ing of several large barges with capacity Of from soO to 2O00 tons with which to receive freight and then with the services of tug boat tow them to the various Alaska ports The capital required in this enterprise would not amount to great deal, while the benefit to the people of Alaska would be immense sbinners instead of paying from $10 to $40 ton for freight could have it delivered at from S4 to S6 ner ton-Juneau City Mining Record, Thursday, June G. 1889

pressed 2. "very friendly attitude" toward President Peron of Argen- tina.
 This statement sizzled down the press cables to Latin America and was front-paged in every newspaper below the Rio Grande. Naturally it was mama from heaven to the very same military dictatorships President Truman wants to dis courage.
 What the newspapers didn't men, ton, however, was the fact that Mayor Morrison had been awarded the Argentine Order of Liperator by President Person. that Mrs. Morrison had been given an ex- travagant ruby and diamond ring by Sonora Peron; and tha their trip had been carefully arranged by the Argentine dictator as part of his scheme to win over the Truman Administration.
 Lurking in the background of this little plot was another gentle man from New Orleans, Andrew Jackson Higgins, the boatbuilder whom Senator Truman once cham

MERRY-GO-ROUND

It wasn't Trumans fault that the Republicans weren't consulted re the appointment of Dean Acheson as Secretary of State. The White House tried to call Senators Van denberg of Michigan, but couldn't locate him He was in New York at the bedside of his sick wife :. Congressman Arthur Klein, New York Democrat, has drafted a reso- lution asking an investigation of re- ports that Robert Stripling, shrewd prober for the Un-American Activ- ities Committee, removed confiden- tial material from Committee files to write his memoirs. Having plucked the Chambers films out of a pumpkin, Klein figures it would be just as easy for Stripling to pluck papers out of Committee files.

pioned. Higgins also took free trip to Argentina and came back to urge closer relations With the dictator.
 On top of this, Peron cleverly awarded the Order of Liberator to Truman's bibulous, backslapping military aide, Gen. Harry Vaughan, for his constant and efficient eff forts in favor of close and friend ly relations"
 All of which leads to the con- clusion that either brother Peron is a very wise guy or that the boys around the White House are awfully dumb Net result in any event has been a lot of encourage ment for Latin Gictators. Note-Actually, President Tru- man did not encourage the Mayor of New Orleans regarding friend ship with Dictator Peron. He was quite cagey.

All, SNOW

Snow has it's devotees It also has its damners as one may notice if you in the vicinity of any driver or driving car yourself during the recent weeks in Juneau. City officials also have word for snow-but it cash and it has been costly for the city during recent weeks but splendid job has been done by the street department
 Juneau and adjacent territory has had plenty ot the beautiful stuff devotees call it, but It IS a fivestar nuisance to the community. It's hard to reconcile the exquisitely formed ice lacework with all the trouble it causes. but ven rather light snow fall can play hob with human transportation and when it rains and gets caught in the snow, then freezes the beautiful sentiment is knocked sky high
 Part of the result of snow is achieved by sheer buk-countless tons of stuff that clings and packs Part Of the result is brought about by the fact that snow and ice counteract friction. We are prone to think of friction as being nothing but source of loss until we realize on a snow covered or icy street or pavement that it's friction that enables our feet or wheels to propel the direction we want to go Were there no friction whatever in the world, every thing that isn't nailed down would gravitate to the lowest ponit-in most cases the depth of the sea and that would be that.
 At any rate is picturesque but we oeHeVe we have already enough of the picturesque during the present winter.

much about his own California colleagues in the House of Repre- sentatives. Scarcely had two new Californians settled in their Con- gressional offices, however, but they had calls from good old Sheridan about repeating the 160-acre limi- tation on wate- rights in central California.
 Downey followed this up by talk ing the two new Congressmen = Cecil White of Fresno and Clinton McKinnon of San Diego-out to lunch. He made no bones about arguing that they should vote to ren- eve the 160-acre restriction, placed on reclamation projects to help the small farmers.
 Congressman White happens to own 5000 acres of California farm land. However, he told the senior Senator from his state that he was barking up the wrong tree. Congressman McKinnon feels like wise.
 Sheridan is a perseyering gen. tleman, however. Last year he pub lished mysterious and expen- sively bound book called They i Would Rule The Valley" and sent it out as lobbying literature. The book carried no Identification as to it's publisher or as to who paid for it's publication Downey, the author, is not wealthy. and could not well afford to finance a book i of no sales value.

FRENCH FRIENDSHIP

Tn Strasbourg, France, is a small factory which makes stained-glass windows for churches. It is run by Tristan Ruhlmann, a 24-year-old Frenchman who spent most of the war fighting in the resistance movement.
 After the war he started his stained-glass- window factory and, few weeks ago, heard over the radio the story of how Frenchmen were contributing gifts to the Merci Train to thank the American peo- pie for the Friendship Train.
 Whereupon NJ Ruhlmann, feeling that he had something uniquely French to offer, designed and man. ufaotured a special stained-glass window for the American people. In the center of the window is a father showing a map of the United States to his son, while around the borders of the window are the coats-o arms of the Asa tian cities contributing to the Thank-you Train.
 Because so many French church. es had their windows destroyed, M Ruhlmanns factory has more or ders than it can fill, but he took time to make this window for the American people.
 Note-So many precious historical gifts have been put aboard the Merci Train that the Smithsonian Institution, custodian of the Gov crnments historical treasures, has been asked to help in the care and distribution of gifts.
