ALASKA IS TO BE DEVELOPED BY REPUBLICANS In an address before the National Republican club, of New York, at its annual Lincoln dinner, Secretary of the Interior Albert B. Fall said: "Alaska, acquired by Lincoln and his secretary of state at a cost of $7,000,000, has paid this county $700,000,000, and has for the last twenty years been practically closed to the business men of the United States. Oil has been flowing into the Arctic ocean at Cape Fleming for years, perhaps centuries, and was only recently discovered. What is believed to be one of the greatest oil fields of the world is in the Arctic near the Aleutian islands. "It has been known for years that there wasa great deposit of fuel of some kind along the Arctic circle in Alaska, but the department of the interior did not even possess a specimen. A recent expedition discovered a deposit of cannel coal lying from ten inches to ten feet under the surface, over an area 600 miles long by 125 miles wide. The greatest copper mine in the world is in Alaska and new deposits of valuable minerals are being discovered constantly. "Under the present laws, capital is not attracted to Alaska, because there is not sufficient return for the gamble. Business men are not going to accept 6 per cent. We must liberalize the laws to bring further development." Secretary Fall further asserted: "The Republican party acquired Alaska and the Republican party should make its development possible. The Republican party stands for business and the creation of wealth. It will do its duty and develop Alaska. But it will so conserve the public interest that no one can accuse us of turning over to the predatory interests of Wall street, or any other part of the country this great inheritance of the" THE RIVER Sprung from a virgin source among the delts, The youthful stream leaps out, unchecked, it wells Like hopes which overflow the heart to race Beyond the channel of today's embrace. Much calmer now, more stately water wends, And though too soon I feel the journey ends, Her isles, her depths, the river bids me know, And all my dreams upon her bosom flow. GOLDEN DAYS OF '49 TO BE COMMEMORATED Depicting the early days of California with its famous old mining camps of "Hangtown," "Slug Gulch," "Whiskey Diggins," "You Bet," and others with equally odd names derived from incidents born of the gold-rush hysteria, a "Days of '49" celebration will be held in Sacramento May 23 to 28. Features of the celebration will be floats and pageants representing the discovery of gold at Sutter Fort; the gold rush with its picturesque prairie schooners pulled by plodding ox teams; the bizarre dance halls and events having to do with the early history of California. Two hundred and fifty Indians from the Klamath Falls Indian reservation will be in Sacramento for the week and will erect their own Indian village after the manner of those used in the early days. Forty-Niners and other old citizens of Sacramento are gathering material and relics that were actually a part of its history, such as prairie schooners, ox-carts, stage coaches, gold scales, long-toms, muskets, miners' equip- Secretary Fall further asserted: "The Republican party acquired Alaska and the Republican party should make its development possible. The Republican party stands for business and the creation of wealth. It will do its duty and develop Alaska. But it will so conserve the public interest that no one can accuse us of turning over to the predatory interests of Wall street, or any other part of the country this great inheritance of the United States." The secretary estimated that in the future royalties from coal, oil and other mineral rights would yield the government $12,000,000,000. WHAT IS ILLITERACY? A new definition of illiteracy seems to be needed. The superintendent of the Atlantic City schools tells the Rotary club that the United States is "the most illiterate nation," basing his averment on census figures showing more than 6,000,000 of our people who neither read nor write the English tongue, of whom 128,000 inhabit New Jersey. It is well to urge, as Mr. Boyer did so feelingly, that these persons should be taught to use our tongue. But they are not necessarily illiterate if they cannot use it now, observes the Philadelphia Public Ledger. If an American goes to Poland, or Czechoslovakia or Serbia, or Russia and finds himself unable to use the language of the people among whom he comes, he is not, therefore, to be classed as illiterate. Illiteracy is not a matter of one's geographic location at a particular time. It is a matter of education in the mother tongue. Premier Briand was not illiterate because he came to Washington with a scanty equipment of English in his portmanteau. In fact, many a polyglot foreigner, proficient in several tongues but inexpert in ours, might justly wax indignant if he were called illiterate for want of skill in our form of speech. THE FOREST OFFICERS ENFORCING THE LAW Over 340 cases of forest fire law enforcement were handled by forest officers this past season in California, according to the report issued by District Forester Paul G. Redington, or the California district. One hundred and fifty-two visitors in the forests who left unextinguished camp-fires and 34 smokers who were responsible for the start of forest fires were ap- Two hundred and fifty Indians from the Klamath Falls Indian reservation will be in Sacramento for the week and will erect their own Indian village after the manner of those used in the early days. Forty-Niners and other old citizens of Sacramento are gathering material and relics that were actually a part of its history, such as prairie schooners, ox-carts, stage coaches, gold scales, long-toms, muskets, miners' equipment, gambling outfits, and countless other articles linked with the romantic period of the state. In order that tourists from the east may attend this commemoration the Southern Pacific company will put its west-bound tourist excursion rates in effect May 15 instead of the usual effective date of June 1. REPUBLICANS HAVE DEALT LIBERALLY WITH VETERANS There can hardly be any reason for complaint or criticism of what the congress has done already for the veterans of the world war. Not all of the legislation in behalt of the soldiers was passed by the present congress; but much of it was and when it is all assembled it certainly proves an imposing refutation of the old saying that republics are ungrateful. Under the war risk insurance act passed during the war, the government has already paid in allotments and family allowances $572,000,000 to 2,135,000 persons. approximately. In addition to this sum it owes for insurance claims the vast amount of $1,191,000,000, the payments of which extend over a period of 20 years. In December, 1919, the congress passed the Sweet compensation bill for disabled veterans by the terms of which a disabled soldier was paid $80 a month during the period of his disability. This act was retroactive and within 100 days after it was passed $31,000,000 was paid to disabled veterans. In March, 1921, the congress passed the Langley bill, appropriating $18,600,000 for hospital construction. In the sundry civil bill of June, 1920, the national soldiers' homes were made accessible to world war veterans. Vocational training was provided for by the Fess bill, passed June, 1918. This bill provided that soldiers taking vocational training shall be paid $80 a month. In July, 1919, congress passed the laws to bring further development. Secretary Fall further asserted: "The Republican party acquired Alaska and the Republican party should make its development possible. The Republican party stands for business and the creation of wealth. It will do its duty and develop Alaska. But it will so conserve the public interest that no one can accuse us of turning over to the predatory interests of Wall street, or any other part of the country this great inheritance of the United States."

In July，1919，congress passed tha Over 340 cases of forest fire law enforcement were handled by forest officers this past season in California, according to the report issued by District Forester Paul G. Redington, of the California district. One hundred and fifty-two visitors in the forests who left unextinguished camp-fires and 34 smokers who were responsible for the start of forest fires were apprehended by forest officers. These fires are chargeable to ignorance of the law, negligence and carelessness. Seventy-seven incendiary fires were set in the national forests, and cases were successfully worked up against 41 of these offenders, and $14,445 in fines and settlements were collected for failure to comply with the federal and state fire laws. "Invoking the law has become necessary," Redington states, "when it is considered that 992 fires this past season are directly attributable to negligence and carlessness of man. From 1911 to 1915 there has been a steady increase in the number of man-caused fires, and while a small reduction has been effected, the total number still constitutes a serious menace to the welfare of national forests." The press of California has assisted the forest service in bringing home to the people of the state the necessity for care with fire in the forests. Apparently the publicity and educational campaign in itself has failed to bring the desired results. Redington states that in view of this situation stringent enforcement of the fire laws will be carried out this coming season. The man who goes to church about once a year, always looks around, that one time, to be sure nobody fails to see him. In March, 1921, the congress passed the Langley bill, appropriating $18,600,000 for hospital construction. In the sundry civil bill of June, 1920, the national soldiers' homes were made accessible to world war veterans. Vocational training was provided for by the Fess bill, passed June, 1918. This bill provided that soldiers taking vocational training shall be paid $80 a month. In July, 1919, congress passed the Darrow bill. Under this act a soldier taking vocational training may receive $80, if single, or $100 if he has dependents. In addition family allowances are provided for, so that a man with a wife and two children may receive $132.50 a month, with five dollars more for every additional child. In addition to these payments the soldier gets his training free. Last August the second Sweet bill was passed, creating the United States veterans' bureau. This bureau was created to co-ordinate the government work of soldiers' relief, and to do away with the confusion and misunderstanding that had been caused by the fact of there being several bureaus to handle these matters. It is believed that when this law is in full operation the service to be rendered the ex-service men will be greatly improved, and complaint will be much reduced. Certainly there has been no lack of willingness on the part of Congress, so far, to make every provision for the comfort and care of the men who served their country in the great war.

Pratt Annie Gayne Peake Annie Gayne Peake Annie Gayne Peake Annie Gayne Peake Annie Gayne Peake teresting fact is disclosed by this investigation that there are plenty of precedents for a plan that would restrict the representation of the large cities. Several states place a limit on the number of representatives that may be elected from a particular city or county, as follows: Florida—No county to have more than three members in the lower house. Maine—No town to have more than seven members in the lower house. New York—No county to have more than one-third of the total number of senators and no two adjoining counties are to have more than one-half of the total number. Oklahoma—No county is to elect more than seven members to the lower house. Pennsylvania—No city or county is to have more than one-sixth of the total number of senators. Rhode Island—No city or town is to have more than one-fourth of the total number of members in the lower house. After all, the fellow who says "I should worry," has more sense than the chap who says "I do worry." What's the use of worrying, anyhow? There are really only two things we can worry about, something we can't help and something we can help. There isn't any sense in worrying about what we can't help, and if we face something we can help then the best thing is to turn to an' help it as much as we can. We get further by using the brains we have to make things better than we do by weakening our brains by worrying about things and leaving them alone.
