COMMUNICATION
Editor Progressive-Miner:
This is the first time I have ever
written to a newspaper and probably
will be the last time unless a ques
nf similar gravity appears.
Mr. F. J. Furnivall last evening pe
titioned the council to prohibit Dr.
Thatcher Miller from practicing medi
cine in Ketchikan.
It is hard to imagine such a condi
tion. Dr. Miller is a registered physi
cian from an American school of medi
cine; has served in the United States
Army and is qualified to practice his
profession in any state' in the union,
and yet we have a foreign toom citizen
asking that a native toom American toe
deprived of making a living in his own
country. “Ye Gods.”
We have a medical 'board in Alaska
and if there is any question about Dr.
Miller’s qualifications they are the
people to take it up, and in the mean
time it would toe Well for people to
mind their own (business.
Sincerely yours,
A SOLDIER.

TALK TO MARS IS NEXT
Mr. Marconi, the well known scien
tist. says the time will come when we
can talk to the people of Mars. The
painful taciturnity and unfortunate re
serve which the inhabitants of the two
planets have maintained toward each
other for so long will be forgotten, and
we will begin just talking right up to
to each other even though we never
have been formally Introduced.
Mr. Marconi’s theory is that other
and mathematics are universal. It is
his plan some day to send the follow-j
ing message, prepaid on to the ether
circuit: “Mars—Rush! Important!
Two plus two are four. Reply collect.
Hurry! Marconi.”
If this fails to 'bring a reply lie will
send another message embodying the
'same beautiful sentiments. After this
has been repeated a number of times.
Mr Marconi says the people of Mars
will be compelled to admit that he is
absolutely correct and they will shopt
back along the ether waves the Mars
equivalent of “Yes.”
Then he will send "another message
• ike this:
“Mars—Message received. Thanks.
Four phis three are five: Marconi.”
-After laughing heartily at this droll
eserogram, it is obvious that Mars will
reply “No.” or “You’re a Liar,” or
“You Have Been Drinking,” or some
thing like that.
This will furnish the basis of fur
ther repartee and soon it will be pos
sible to discuss politics, baseball, the
18th amendment, toothache, literature,
the mother-in-law joke.' indigestion,
Charley Chaplin, the price of milk and
other themes of importance.
It seems easy, and doubtless the time
soon will arrive when we will be able
to get the latest news through from
Mara in time to catch the afternoon
papers,. while the people of that subur
ban district will know everything we
have done throughout the day before
they lock up the office and go homo
to supper.
