two or thre hours of .sunshine, on
March 22 the sum is shining 12 hours.
On June 22 the Ta-nana valley has
from 21 to H2 hours of direct, vigor

crop.s as wheat, rye, barley, oats and
potatoes ares grown, matured and har

sunshine and heat.
"During these months the Tanana

"In answer to the question of why
the government should assist in the
development of Alaska it ran be
argued that in fairness we owe this to
ours. Ives and to Alaska as well.
"If the development of Alaska Is
properly safeguarded and the people's
rights protected, then the citizens of
the United States, as well as the gov
ernment, can hardly fail to realize,
$100 for every $1 expended in Alaska.
Hut congress should be careful to see
to it that in any plan of development
permitted or adopted all mineral and
coal deposits are forever preserved to
the people of Alaska and to the peo
ple of the Fnifed States.
"Th concensus 'of opinion is that a
railroad .should be built from the
touth sea of Alaska up through the
Interior, so that by branch lines it
-vould open up tho great coal fields'
end gold fields of the country and
the great river valleys for home
"builders, ending at some great river
navigable) to the western ocean.
"Such a railroad can be built with
about 4 00 miles of trackage, at a cost
of about $40,000,00, that will give
over ri.000- miles of trathc by railroad
find water, not to speak of the branch
lines of the railroad and navigation
tributaries of the great ocean river,
thus opening up to civilization the
valleys that are aide to house mil
lions of settlers, support great cities
and ive outlet to the greatest coal
lields of the world.
'VSuch a road, accomplishing; such
jrreat re.rolis, -would cost no more
than three or four battleships, or less
than one-tAventleth of the money

LET THE PEOPLE
RULE AND GRAFT
FLEES, SAYS FQL
V
"Place the machinery of the gov
ernment as close to the people as pos
sible anil to that extent graft and cor
ruption will be abolished," said ex
(Jov. Joseph YV. Folk of Missouri, in
his lecture at th" Chautauqua Sun
day afternoon when he talked on the
subject, "A Fight for a State."
"During the past decade and a half
people's consciences have gradually
awakened to a keener sense of right
and wrong. Years ago the voter took
the matter of selling his vote on elec
day indifferently, while now only the
corrupt politician will purchase the
vote and the transaction is made be
hind closed doors. As a result we lind
tho nation gradually stepping away
from corruption."
Ho began his lecture by saying that
many people might not agree with
him on some of the subjects which he
was about to discuss. He said that it
was man's privilege to think as he
wished. Continuing with an illustra
tion, he said that out of four state
ments there probably would be people
in the audience who would believe
and agree with him on at least one
or two, while but few woijld agree
with him on all. The four statements
were, that he was hrst an American
citizen, second a Missourian, third a
Baptist and last a democrat.
Points to nryan.
He pointed to Bryan, saying that he
was a great leader who was largely
instrumental in bringing about an
awakening of the nation. Roosevelt
was also referred to as a leader along
timilar lines.
"True American patriotism should
exist in the breast of every citizen,"
ho continued, in referring to an in
stance which occurred in his state,
the governor said, "I once heard a
prominent legislator say in a banquet
toast that he wished he might die for
his country. It happened that a short
time later the same man had been
brought before
where he was
cepting money

loudlv that he

but he was not e ri
willing to live for it.
"It is as important for the private
individual to perform his patriotic
duties at the polls and in other places
as it is for the legislator to perform
his. at the state capitol. The man
who accepts a dollar for his ote is
guilty of high treason. And the man
who buys it is as bad as the grafter
who accepts money in the legislature
f"T his vte or influence.
tiraft is Organized.
"Jraft is organized, while righteous
ness and horesty are ret. It is there
fore much asier to st r. gn.it than
to servo th people. The politician
has very ada:it.ige, while the

ter for the I'nited States if the entire
Tammany crowd were wi;ed out "
rdk thm pointed to conditions in i
his own state, showing the wav in
which it was gradually working away
from graft. He pointed to the gamb
ling at the race tracks and at the sa
loons, and to the way it had been
alKilished in the state.
"Winn the gambling at the race
tracks at St. lyouis was tlrst abolish
ed." he continued, "the gambh-r cried
that it would discourage the raising
of thoroughbred and fast horses in
the state. Thousands of bovs and men
sell their lives in the
gambling places
at the races. I believe that the lives
of the men who hao gone down
through the gambling holes at the
race tracks should have the chance
even if tho race horse business should
suffer.
IalMicity l Aid.
"Publicity now tends to abolish
the evils, upholding moral progress.
Reforms have -been accomplished
largily through the efforts of the
press, which has thrown the light on
the offender. A few years ago prize
fighting was permitted in most all of
the Mates, while now it has been
made illegal in most of them, showing
that the nation is progressing morally.
"Ciive the people a chance to handle
the lines and graft will abolished.
I stand for the initiative referendum
and recall of Judges and decisions, as
they place the machinery of the gov
ernment nearer the people and fur
ther from tho organized political
grafter. I believe in the primary elec
tion law."
Touching on suffrnge Tor women he
said that laws would be managed dif
ferently if both sexes were granted
equal rights at the polls. He pointed
to questions of the day such as soiial
evils, managing of the liquor laws and
the white slave question, and said that
the woman at the polls would make
several changes. He said -that suffrage
should not be based on sex, but ra
ther on intelligence.
"The enforcement of the laws of
the nation now depends on the oliic
ials at the nation's head." said the
ex-governor. "You can rest assured
that v here laws are not enforced
some otlicial is neglecting to enforce
it for a purpose, lather he is geting
some graft or for personal reasons
he does not execute it.
"In Missouri a few years ago an
investigation of the white slae and
liquor situation in one of the larger
cities showed that nearly all of the
police force, with a number of its
higher oilieials were guilty of accept
ing i:raft money for allowing prosti
tution houses to remain open, and
the violation of liquor laws. When
the probe brought out the guilt of
a large number of the force four of
them committed suicide rather than
face the charges."
The Mozart Trio gave a sacred con
cert at both the morn;ng and evening
programs".
Pleads For Children.
Dr. A. Rugene Bartlett of Chicago,
delivered a sermon in the evening
using the subject "Little Citizens of
Tomorrow" or "The Conservation of
Childhood."
Dr. Bartlett believes in dicipline of
the child. He spoke of the conserva
tion of our natural resources and then
declared that the fundamental saving
of our children was by conserv ing hu
man life and energy, lie made a plea
for Christianity through the agencies

During the hot months mothers
should look very carefully to the con

young children, and. for that matter,
it is very important in the lives of
people at all ages. Care should be
taken that the watt r is pure, the milk

of anything is eaten.

of birth, homes, education and relig
ion of the child.
Pointing to child labor he said that
it had a tendency to lead the young
girl, who had desires for better things.
into a life of shame through com-
meicialized vice. He showed how the j
work in the sweatshop took the child j
away from the play which builds it up I
physically and away from the, school
which built it 'Ji mentally and said s
that if the sweatshop was permitted J
to continue to be the school rooms of 1
the next generation, that the next
generation was bound to be degener
ate. He urged that playgrounds be built
to conserve the physical health of the
child. He said that there was a
greater need to the child than the
no d of an education, a place to play,
and a decent hpiuo. "The child should I
be taught a spirit of love for. others j
through tin- church. He should not!
be taught to loyu one particular de- j
nomination or or pew but should get1
a broad. r idea." said Dr. Bartle?. j
"If the child is permitted to grow!
up with a feeling of love only for
hiself and one church pew, he will j
grow up to ! e the kind of man who j
employs the child in the factory, j
sucking the blood out of the child's
veins to Jill his own purse." I
