been sinking a diamond drill hole

Many parties coming ufS’ from the
states, bound for the interior by way
of Valdez and Fairbanks, are buying
Ford machines in Seattle, paying $70
freight on them, and going in over
the government trail with their ma
chines. As Fords sell for about $700
in Fairbanks it is a good investment,
as the parties get their trip free, the
difference between a machine in Se
attle and one in Fairbanks being
about $200. And the trail is in fine
condition this time of the year
Word comes from Fairbanks that

Indians Should Govern
India and Have a
Voice In British
Councils
By GILBERT K. CHESTERTON,
British Writer
I CERTAINLY hope that in all im
perial matters India will be ful
ly represented—represented, let
me say again emphatically—by the
real representatives of the people,
the real preservers of Indian cul
ture and ideals. In peace, as in
war, India’s opinion ought to be
represented in the settlement of im
perial questions, NOT THROUGH
GOVERNMENT MACHINERY,
BUT THROUGH THE PEOPLE’S
INSTITUTIONS.
This is a bad time for politicians,
but a very good time for everybody
else. Now we have an opportunity
of coming face to face with a great
many human realities.
INDIA MUST BE GOVERNED BY
INDIANS FOR INDIANS, AND I
CANNOT BELIEVE THAT THE IN
HERITORS OF SO GREAT A PA8T
WOULD MAKE BAD ADMINISTRA
TORS.
