ALASKA'S NEWS.

Outlined by U.S. Secretary of

the Interior. Secretary Payne, of the U.8. Interior Department, devoted much attention in his annual re- port to Alaska, which he recently, visited. The Secretary recognizes pass-transportation as the chief pro- blem of that country, and advocates the operation of steamship Government-owned line as a relief measure, The Government railroad, 540 miles: in length, will be completed

during and in service

1922, The Government 越 now operating 445 miles. Secretary Payne points out that the ad- ministration of Alaskan affairs has been sadly hampered by the iack of a definite, far-sighted national policy.

Man has come to posgese a spiritual sense. He has come to possess a soul, and by the existence of the soul has ceased to be a mere anìmál.

The soul is the last of the fundamental realities. It is as real as thought or life,

The immergence of the soul in man is the last stage-as far as man can know--of biological evolution.

Evolution was designed to produce spiritual beings who can survive bodily death, and enjoy eternal communion with God if they accept Christ's doc- trine of the immortality of the soul.

The preacher detalled the following four stages in the development or evolution of the sou!:

1. Instinctive action.

2. Perception of the external world.

3. Intelligent action.

4. Conception of abstract ideals.

WHAT EVOLUTION IMPLIES.

The difficulties in the way of successful government in Alaska are great and can only be over- come by obtaining the disinter- ested service of experienced and well-informed men. With this in view, an effort has been made to co-ordinate the several de- partments of the Government that baye to do with Alaska, A committee has been formed, consisting of one representative from each depart mont, who is familiar with Alaskan affairs and competent to act in an advisory capacity cantile Marine Uniform Act, 1919, research; for the maintenance Catholic priest who has been very and to the Order in
