The rivalry for the honor of being the coast terminus of a railroad from Peace River has be- come rather lively. The Canadian Pacific Rail- way Company has secured terminals and right of way for a railroad from Stewart on Portland Canal, near neighbor of Hyder, Alaska, and proposes to build the road within the next five years. It is said that Prince Rupert hopes for aid from the Canadian National Railways to beat the Canadian Pacific time. It is said, further, that a combination between the Canadian Pacific and Canadian National to build a jointly owned road is within the possi- bilities. PULLI BOOT STRAPS. The American manufacturer is fast working out a system of beating the ill effects of high tariff and consequent high production cost in America by establishing factories in foreign countries to supply the foreign trade. It is now feared that further advantage may be found in shipping products of the foreign branch factories to the United States and thus participate in the em- ployers’ profits from “cheap” foreign labor. After all this very high tariff and very greatly re- stricted immigration is a lot like one trying to lift oneself by pulling boot straps. FOR ONCE RIPLEY IS WRONG. Ripley’s “Believe It or Not” service says that while Herbert Hoover is the thirty-first President he is only the thirtieth man to be elected Presi- dent. He evidently was referring to the circumstance that President Cleveland is counted twice in the, thirty-one Presidents list. Cleveland was the twen- ty-second and the twenty-fourth President. How- ever, Mr. Ripley is wrong. Presidents Tyler, Fill- more, Johnson and Arthur were not elected Presi- dent. They succeeded to that position from the Vice-Preidency, and became respectively the tenth, thirteenth, seventeenth and twenty-first Presidents. Therefore, we must substract five from the thirty- one list of Presidents to give us the number of men actually elected President. Twenty-six is the answer. Presidents Roosevelt and Coolidge succeeded to| the Presidency from the Vice-Persidency but subse- quently each of them was elected President, and | were respectively the twenty-sixth and thirtieth oc- cupants of the Chief Magistracy. While President Hoover is the thirty-first Presi- dent and the twenty-sixth person to be elected President he is only the twenty-fifth occupant of the White House. President Washington never lived in the White House. Persident John Adams was the first to occupy that place. The capital was moved from New York ito Philadelphia while Washington was President and from Philadelphia to Washington while John Adams was President HIGHWAY BIBLIOGRAPHY. | Distribution of an authoritative bibliography on| street and highway safely has just been effected by the Highway Education Boad, Washington, D. C. This bibliogaphy, the first of its kind ever aftempted on a large scale, has a total of 2,389 articles indexed. It has been distributed to libraries, schools, and other organizations where it is ex- pected to prove of spe 1 value to research workers in the subject of safety education. Because of the Hmited cdition, less than 300 copies having been prepared, great care was taken to place copies in those communities where they will be of most value to the largest number of people. Articles indexed have been taken from 177 American and foreign periodicals. At the end of the bibliography is an authors’ index listing 899 names. Most of the items included have been printed since 1923 although several were published befere that time. The first of the volume is made up of a list of periodicals which published the articles and each article listed carries a brief annotation as to the subject matter and its line of development, followed by the name of the writer. STOPPING STOCK PANICS. ‘While the country will thank Mr. Morgan and the other bankers who stopped the panic on the New York Stock Exchange, those who were closed out and others who lost heavily would have been |enforce a THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE.

And in the past it has not been difficult to convince a lot of m under similar circumstances that they were s of manipulation. Since the Prohibition enforcers have extended their jurisdiction over the seas to the twelve-mile limit of foreign countries we wonder if they do not now feel that they made a mistake when they got the United States and other countries to agree to restrict the high seas limit from three to twelve miles. Doheny was acquitted of the charge of having | bribed Fall and the latter convicted of the charge |of having accepted a bribe from the former. Either Fall was very unlucky with the jury or Doheny was( very lucky Apparently it is not a crime to give a bribe but is a crime to accept one. When Football Was a Crime. (New York Times.) This country is still much younger than Eng- land was in 1314. Yet, although several centuries of civilization had then been known in the island, the authorities in that year were busy trying to sort of prohibition. They never succeed- ed very well, for a few hundred years later they were still issuing proclamations on the subject. Finally they gave it up,.and the time came when all Englishmen cheered the remark of the Duke of Wellington that Waterloo was won on the play- ing fields of Eton. It was football which England for so many ceituries sought to prohibit, and, if American liquor laws seem particularly humorous | to them new, The American Historical Review'i publishes facts which may serve to remind the British how seriously their ancestors regarded what | now js an approved and established form of play. | The information is distributed at a itme of year when, each Saturday, great throngs in this country fill the college amphitheatres. As now play- “football” against which the Mayors and Sheriffs of London were inveighing from the fourteenth century onward. That, under the name of soccer football game wherein the ball is carried part of the time by the players is most widespread. Yet the devotees of all forms of the sport will recognize as definitely ancestral Barclay's lines, written in 1514: Each one contendeth and hath a great delite With foote and hande the bladder for to smite; If it fall to grounde they lifte it up again, This wise to labor they count it for no paine; . Renning and leaping they drive away the colde. For several hundred years before this poem was written, England and Scotland regarded football much as certain of our big business men regard liquor—as a menace to the industry and defense of the nation. In those days governments had to have plenty of bowmen, but many who should have been practicing at archery were busy on the ballfields. Nichols de Farndon, Lord Mayor of Londowy was so disturbed over this light-mindedness shown, while issued a proclamation threatening imprisonment to those who played at football. Under Edward III the matter became a moral issue and the clergy were directed by the Synod of Ely to desist. “The realm is like to be without archers)” lamented the Bishop-Secretary. Henry V, more direct than most, ordered his subjects to practice the bow immediately and provided jail sentences for football players. Queen Charlottes Rich. (Prince Rupert News.) It seems to be the lot of a new country or a new district to be more or less the prey of all the richer countries or richer districts and to suffer thereby. Take the Queen Charlotte Islands as an example. There they had the finest stand of Sitka spruce on the continent and they still have a considerable amount left. This valuable timber is all taken away to be manufactured. In the past everything the islands had has been taken away, but of late canneries have been established there to take care of their fish which have been an advantage to the place. Just as Prince Rupert has had to fight every Queen Charlotte Islands will have to do likewise. Gradually as the islands settle up, transportation will improve and conditions of living will improve. Some day those islands will have a most important place in the development of Northern British Co- lumbia and Prince Rupert people should study them and give every possible encouragement. We fancy we sec a new era of development about to dawn there. Europeans and American Baseball News. (New York World.) We have no first-hand information as to how the stock ticker on the ships is working, but— from the Adriatic’s daily ship news: “NEW YORK.—George Piepgras held the Brons- ton six hits. Chicago cubs took a two games hold on the first place by trouncing the Philadelphians twice while Pittsburgh was earning only an even break with Boston Double Headers.” Bishop Paul Matthews of New Jersey had a novel experience at dinner tonight. He was unable to extract a cork from a bottle of mineral water . . . and a woman at the next table produced a cork- screw from her bag, then lit a cigarette and smiled. —Atlantic City Special to the New York Times.

Clock had turned the time back and had taken the children to a huge pumpkin field. “We'll sit nearby,” the Little Black Clock said, “and listen to what is going on. If we're too near we may disturb the pumpkin at their great meeting.” So the Little Black Clock and John and Peggy sat at the edge of the ficld and watched and listened to the meeting of the many pump- kins gathered there. None had come from away. It was entirely a local pumpkin meet- ing, but there were many, many pumpkins belonging to the field and they were all talking. “I hope,” said the first pumpkin “that I will be used for a Jack O’ Lantern. My uncle, I was told made such a handsome one last | | | ed in the United States, football is rather a dn-'yw_‘ He had the most enormous, ferent game from Rugby, and entirely unlike the | grinning mouth, and the ecandle that was put inside simply Yghted up his whole face and made him a gorgeous creature.” | “I hope,” said the second pump- |kin, “that I will be used for | Thanksgiving pumpkin pie.” : “I hope,” said the third, “that I will be a Jack O’ Lantern too, and will go and make many calls.” “My father said, so I am told, another pumpkin remarked, “that it was the great moment of his when he sat with grinning, lighted | face, hoping to be spoken to vers pleasantly by the lady of the house. And he was! Then he was taken on more calls—10 in all that eve- ning!” — - Man Jumps from Bed, + Feels /Gas on Heart | “sStomach gas pressed so hard on my heart I had to get up nights.

Congressmen talk in advance of any tariff re- visjon about limiting the changes to certain pro- ducts that clearly demand attention, and then, when revision begins, the work develops into a grabbag, with each and every Congressman trying to snatch something for his own section.—(Memphis Commercial-Appeal.) Sometimes these paid propagandists find that they have been underpaid propagandists. They often get their pay in neither currency nor checks. It would be a good joke on Mr. Shearer, for ex- ample, if the shipbuilding people had given him, says $250,000 worth of old battleships.—(New York more thankful if the bankers could have headed the panic before it started. “ ' Many politicians will probably endeavor to con- ince fhose people who were closed out and lost _ The population of Sing Sing is now 1,790, the highest on record.
