CURRENT
COMMENT
t?cr.I and adm' .listra
tior. ,ff ’ 1 s do not furnish
mat.: ! for extended com
ment. It appears that there
has been s-re misunder
stands. 1 in connection with
t'.e statement that federal
relief will be cut off short
on the first of July. Accord
in,T to the published report
of the President’s remarks
on that subject, people
have not been permitted to
starve during the past four
years, and next summer
whh. be no more fateful.
Congressmen can return
to Washington with their
effects in an over-night bag
perhaps, since the next ses
sion is likely to be short. Re
port that Postmaster Gen
eral Farley will resign, like
the report of Mark Twain's
death, have been greatly
exaggerated. The govern
ment appears to be main
taining a hands-off or at
least a mouth-shut attitude
regarding China and late
developments respecting
the war in Africa. Oppon
ents of the party in power
hope that during the next
few months it will be
caught close to a lee shore:
its friends are doing their
best to see to it that a good
offing is maintained. Sum
med up, the politicians on
both sides are uncertain as

to what they are going to
fight over next.
The trade agreement be
tween the United States
and Canada did not give
rise, at the start at least,
to as much discussion as
had been expected. Those
who were hit by it voiced
their protests, but there
was no general cry of dis
approval; nor was there
any widespread shout of
loud acclaim. President
Cleveland said much that
has been forgotten, but if
one may judge by the con
duct of the public when
such a measure as the Can
adian trade pact comes to
the front for a brief hour,
his statement that the tar
iff is a local issue is treas
ured as a memory gem.
Japan is reported to be
ready to get after China if
that country does not do
something that has about
it. the flavor of turning ov
er territory approximately
equal in area to thirty per
cent of the United States,
and Italy is in Ethiopia on
a similar errand. Folks oth
er than the Chinese and the
Ethiopians seem to think
that what is going on is
part of their business. At
present, Greece for examp
le. could not annex New
Jersey without starting
talk. For several centuries
after Columbus put the
gray Azores behind him,
the American continent
made good picking. It was
large enough so that any
body could acquire a few
thousand miles without
having any boundary trou
bles, and what the Indians
and Aztecs thought about
the proceeding did not
count. Those were the good
old days.

You can’t buy loyalty, so
they say;
I bought it though, this
very day.
You can’t buy friendship,
firm and true;
I bought sincerest friend
ship too.
And truth and kindness I
got;
And happiness, Oh! such a
lot.
Of the many happy hours
that are to be,
That were cold with this
commodity.
I bought a life of simple
faith and love,
That will be mine till death
and two brown eyes
that I could see,
Wont be long in leaving me
I bought protection; bought
a guard;
Right then and afterward.
Buy human friendship; I
should say' not:
You see it was an Alaskan
Alslamute dog I
bought.

HAVE YOU TRIED
COMAX COAL?
COMAX COAL is produced by the Vancouv
er Island Coals Limited, producers also of the fam
ous Ladysmith Coal. We brought in a sample sup
ply of COMAX COAL on the recommendation of
Mr. II. II. Plommer, General Manager, who visit
ed Nome last summer.
After investigating local conditions Mr. Plom
mer advised the introduction of COMAX COAL
on the ground of Economy and Efficiency. He pro
duced facts showing considerable saving compar
ed with oil burning. COMAX COAL is extremely
high in heating value, and because of its strong
coke qualities, is long-lasting. It is not recommend
ed that this coal should be used except in those
places where a healthy draft is available, and in
this regard it should not be inferred because the
draft is on the fire, that the fire is burning to
waste. Of course, if the heat is not required there
is no purpose in exciting a fierce fire, but if requir
ed the more of the oxygen from the atmosphere
that can be consumed with the coal, the better
the results.
