Government Will Ho Asked to All Railroad Building. A hearing will be given by the house committee on territories this week on the Loverlng bill, providing for government aid for general rail way construction in Alaska, says a Washington dispatch. Ex-Senator George . Turner 'will speak for the bill In the hope that the Alaska Central railway, In which he Is Interested, will share In' Its benefits. . - In the course of the hearings before the house and senate committees the Interesting fact has been developed that the Alaska Central road, now building northward from Resurrection bay, Is financed for only about 30 miles beyond the point now reached by the road. About DO miles of road are said to be In operation. When 80 miles shall have been laid down, the funds at present guaranteed for the project will hnve been exhausted. This statement is made on the tes timony of Mr. Turner and other rep resentatives of the company, and the fact has been used ns an argument why the government should not sub sidize any railroad In Alaska unless share In the government's aid. The plan of the Alaska Central people Is supposed to be the floating of a bond Issue on the strength of 80 or 90 miles of road actually con structed nnd In operation. The hope of the promoters of the enterprise also Is to develop some mineral resources, through which a showing of actual traffic may be made to prospective bond purchasers. Ex-Senator Turner says that gov ernment aid to another railroad In Alaska without extending similar as sistance to the Alaska Central rail road would be to destroy the market for Alaska Central bonds and ruin the enterprise. It Is declnred that $2,500,000 has already been expended by the Alnska Central. NEEDED POSTAL REFORMS. Rill in Congress to Simplify Postal Charge. There is pending In congress a bill for postal reform, approved by the present postmaster general and by the third assistant postmaster general, Mr. Madden, under whose personal supervision the abuses complained of come, says the San Francisco Exam iner. The bill provides that the two clas sifications of matter now known as third and fourth-class matter should be consolidated under one head. This la urged because of the difficulty pluoed before the postal clerks and postmasters In determining the pos tage to be charged on parcels having almost Identlcnl contents, but which a complicated law says must be paid for at different rates. Thlrd-clnss matter is charged at one cent for each ounce. How utter ly Illogical and unreasonable the dif ference in these charges Is, and how difficult it must lie for the official In the postofflce to assess a parcel at Its proper cost, is shown by this state ment of articles continually sent through the post: Printed books, 8 cents a pound. Blank books, 14 cents a pound. Visiting cards, printed, 8 cents a pound. Visiting cards, blank, 16 cents a pound. Christmas cards, printed on paper, 8 cents a pound. Christmas cards, printed on silk, satin, or any other substance than paper, 16 cents a pound. Advertisements on blotting paper, 1 cent per ounce.

It is urged by every official of the postofflce and the pos tal reform league of the United States. It Is opposed by nobody thus far, un less It Is Senator Piatt, of the United States Express company, who has not been in his sent In the senate during this session, and who, if the people of New York have their way, would not be allowed to sit in it again. jlhe FRAZER THEATRE "I ENGLAND'S 932,207 PAUPFRS.
