There doesn't seem to be any basis in this for a charge that it would per- mit bureaucrac to enter Alaska. No question has been, or will be, raised by anyone that the Secretary hasn’t performed the duties imposed on him by the several Legislatures, or that it was not efficiently done. No doubt can enter- tained that for doing it the Territory has prom- ised the Secretary that he would be paid at the of $2,000 per year.

(New York World.) othing, perhaps, could make us more sharp- ly aware of the hot rush of time, the endless readjustment of human tastes and enthusiasms, than a certain despatch which has come by the Associated Press from Tennecsee. *“The lonesome pine which figured prominently in the romance by John Fox, Jr., still stands,” this despatch in- forms us. Thén it cannot be so very many years since the romance of June and her city lover and mountain feuds and the tall old tree whispering in the wind was a famous thing among us. It cannot be very many years since the boys and girls gathered around the piano of an evening gnd gave thelr . voices t]|mhh£ngly to the song | which "the tale inspired.

Yet, even though the good health of the tree assures us that not many winters have passed over it, the times of the story and of the song seem long ago and far away. John Fox, Jr., is dead, and his romances are thick with dust. Fritzi Scheff, to whom the “Trail of the Lonesome Pine” was dedicated, is playing the part of maid in a New York play.
