Falcon Joslin, speaking befor*
the American mining congress on
the construction of Rallioads by
the government In Alaska, made
some pertinent hits in his compari
son of the treatment of this terri
tory with that of the PLlllpplnes
Some of his remarks follow:
In -the Philippines eleven differ
out lines wore designated for con
struction. The Philippines are not
populated t-y white people; they are
aliens and they are on the other
side of the world. Tho little coun
try Is only a hundred and twenty
five thousaud square miles contained
lu a thousand islands while Alaska
has flvo hundred and ninety thou
sand square miles contained In a
continent. Yet Congress saw fit a
few years ago to authorize the con
struction of practically a thousand
miles of railroad In the Philippines.
It didn't attempt to say that tills
or that shall be the line to con
struct on. A commission in tho
Philippines selected the routes,
selected el<?ven dlffereut lines, and
osked for bids for their construc
tion. We want the same thing in
Alaska. The Philippine government
under the authority of Congress of
fered aid to tho Philippine lines to
the extent of a guarantee of 4 pet
cent. Interest on the cost of the con
struction for n period of 30 years
When the Northern Pacific and
the Union Pacific were extended a-;
cross the West here the government !
did not require them to pay a
license or prohibit them from uiin- !
ii g coal along their lines. The '
Northern Pacific came through this I
town or to the place where thlsj
town now stands In about 1872.
The government granted to that com
1 any twelve thousand elpht hun-l
dred' acres of land, indiHiing me
coal, for every single mile of road
which was built. In the aggregate
more than thirty million arm of
land was granted to the rUilroad
company for constructing the line
from Lake Superior to I'ugot Sound,
pissing through this place, less
than fifty years aRO. In Alaska,
instead of granting a railroad com
pany a free gift of twelve thou
sand acres lor every mile, they will
not permit a railroad or anyone else
to buy one single acre at nifv price
whatever. The railroads that ai*
built there must go to" California
and import oil or go to Hritisli Co
lumbia and Import coal ,o burn in
ttieir locomotives.
It is hard for the people to be?
lieve that Alaska is one ot-the rich
est lands In tne world. Hut from
one extremity to the other, from the
southeast to the northwest and from
the northeast to the southwest, it
is gold-bearing country. It has
hardly been touched. You can
cross it in the same direction and
you will cross coal fields in every
part of It 1 spoke a little while ago
of those European countries which
subsist on agriculture and fisheries
They have no coal or sold. We
have those things in almost unlimlt
ej abundance In Alaska, and we
have copper and tin which they
hr.ven't In those northern European
countries Our agricultural resour
ces are as great as theirs and our
fisheries fully as extensive. The
United States government experi
mental farm at Fairbanks last sum
mer produced oats that thrashed on
hundred and fifteen bushels to the
acre. Wheat that produced sixty
seven bushels to the acre and pota
toes that produced eight tons to
the acre. There are millions of
acres of similar ground right around
It. I believe It is as rich a country,
acre for acre, as any land in the
world. You know the State of
Washington is a rich State. Puget
Sound couutry has a most famous
crop of timber. You have little
gold here. You have the finest
fruit land in the world, and wheat
land that will produce a hundred
bushels to the aero here In the vi
cinity of Spokane. But we have in
Alaska land that will produce a
hundred bushel* to the acre, also
V large portion of this State is
barreu mountains jind sagebrush
country. There is much barren
lands, mountains and swamp land
iu nearly all States. We have the
same thing in Alaska. We have up
there what they call the tundras on
which trees do not grow, but even
they are productive. They grow
reindeer on the tundras. In Seat
tle yesterday I had a reindeer steak
that came from our tundra lands in
Alaska. Men who know say these
tundras supposed to be worthless
will yet produce a food supply equal
to the best pasture land In Montana
or Texas. All that is needed is
that at Washington we have a little
reasonable intelligence to open it
up.

Tbe Irishman was drnwed In cordu

humorous, ruddy fare, and hla eyna
sparkled with fun. He hand-d out ?

I wint 1 very where I pushed me way j
In to that ol<f Turk In th' war depart

would put me In prison for gittiu' Into
his room. Then I Jiung around the
White liotise and went Into the gar^
den and talked with the gardener, who
was a kind fellah, and told blm me
story. He said: 'Come tomorrow morn
ing early, and I will put you at work !
here. When Mr. Lincoln comes to j
walk in the garden you can s|>eak tc I

".So In the mornln" I wlnt there and j

'"I am.' said I. but that was a Me.

"Then lie a topped there and talked
to me, mid I told hltr. my story 'Corn*

you out." So the gardener told me
what door to co in and what to tell
'Ira, and I walked pas! those fellahs a*
If I owned the plaee.
"When I come In. Mr Lincoln said,
?nave a seat. sir. and warm your fee'

was shovlo' papers before him. and he
would feign tliein. lie said. 'Ton must

" *1 know some,' and be Mid:
" 'All right; talk to me. talk to mer
"Well, 1 could always talk If I hadnt
mu'-h to say, Imt I kip" talfcln' and talk
In', mid a man came in to see 'tin on
business, and he said, 'Never you mind:
sit where you are,' and he kep' me
there. Wh^n dinner time came he told
the man to take me down and see that
I had some dinner. Then I came hack
again. I stayed with him day afthei
day. I was given a dinner of tnrkey
aud Iverytblug. but there was no whis

to go to the boys, and I will let you go.
But he had pumped Ivery story out of
me that I had Iver heard."
Egyptian Justlc*.
In ancient Egypt all <*>urt business
was carried ou In wrftlng In order that
the decision mlcht cot be Influenced hy
oratory or personal appeal. The laws
lay before the Judges upon a table, and
the accuser declared In writing how he
had been Injured, whereupon the de
fendant stated in writing what he had
to say. Then came a rejoinder from
each party to the ccse, after which the
Judges delHierated among themselves
until they had hit upon the proper le
gal penalty for the party who bad In
the meantime been adjudged guilty.
This i>olnt being reached, the president
of the judges touched with an Image
of Thmel the "tioddess of Truth."' the
