PUSHING VALDFS ROAD.
Government Road From Coast to Tam
 ana Through This Year.

It has been announced that the gov ernment road from Vades to the in terior will be completed to the Panama river by October |. It is now being used for a distance of 100 miles froi> Valdes, and is the route used to reach the strike on the Chestachena mining district. But this winter, instead of going over the glacier from ValdcS, supplies are being taken from the mouth of the Lowe river. By this means three miles of glacier wind is avoided which is worth striving for at this time of the year from all accounts.
 It is said the winter trail will not break mp til about April IS, after which time horses cannot be used until June 10 or later. It is alleged that live stock cannot be taken into that country un- til about June I.

Moores that it be so comprehensive in its scope as to include every lot oi land to which there is a recorded title. This is a matter of plain justice to those who are asked to contribute to the fund to pay attorneys and provide costs for the continuation of the case. It would be unjust to get the poorer landowners into an opposition to the Moores. and then for those who can afford to do so make a settlement and leave them to the mercy of corpora ton wealth without means for the combat.
 This suggestion is not made upon information that there is any such thing contemplated, because there is no such information. So far as the Daily Alaskan can discover, every property is entering the fight in good faith toward every other prop erty owner The suggestion is made simply that the point may not be over looked, but that every phase of the case may be thoroughly understood ir advance

TO TAP ITS COAL MINES
That Company Has Expended s2OO,- 900 in the Mine--Are Forced to Build the Road to Bring Coal to Dawson Coal Will Be a Great Feature in the Future Market.

The railroad up the Klondike from Dawson, a franchise for which was re gently applied for by the Alaska Ex- ploration Company, is thought to be d certainty by most everyone who has lately arrived from Dawson. ]. H. Rogers, who arrived from there Thurs day morning, says that the road will undoubtedly be built next summer, and will prove very profitable venture.
 "A narrow gauge road up the Klon- dike would prove very profitable to the A. E. Co.," said he, and in fact to every merchant in Dawson.
 The intended route of the company is up the Klondike to Grand Forks There the road will branch out, one line continuing up the klondike to the A. F. Co., $ coal mine and the oth. CT to go up into the mines
 About $2oo 900 has been put in this coal mine by the A. F. Co.,. and they are in fair way to make it pay enor- mously if they can get the coal to Dawson.
 "Freighting by horses was tried but proved too expensive, and they could not compete with the N. A. T. X T | Co, who last fall landed large amount of coal in Dawson from thei, mine near Eagle City and are selling | it for $25 q ton. A small rate wal was started early this winter, and coa dropped to SIS ton, but came uf again.
 Wood near Dawson is fast disap. bearing, and the A. E. Co. recognizes | that there will be enormous amount: made in the coal business, hence the building of the road.
 There will be plenty of freight tc go out to the creeks next year and the years to come to keep a small rail road busy, and the coal mine will sup. ply plenty of business.
 1t is generally believed in Dawson that the intended experiment with au, tomobiles will prove unsuccessful, as the road to Grand Forks is too rough for them.
 There is a rumor prevalent in Daw son, and it is generally believed by nearly everyone as true, that the Cana, dian Pacific Railroad Company intend. to build road to Dawson. The intended route has never been made known, but the rumor is gener, ally believed to be true

TO INVESTIGATE MIRAGE
Scientific Men VIII Solve Mystery of
 The Silent City"

The Silent City" as the now ia nous mirage which can be seen at cer, tain portions of the year from Mount Fairweather. of the St. Elias range, has come to be called, is to be nvrs tigated. This mirage, several photo graphs of which have been taken, is said to be a likeness of a portion i Bristol, England, and it is so plain that excellent negatives have beent.k en. The point from which the mirag. is visible IS not far from Skagway, h.- ing to the north of Miner Glacier.
 It is now announced, that in or ter to solve the mystery a group of scien tihc men from the California univ-rs- ities will visit the scene this year and will camp with the mirage in sight and take photographs of it and seek " studying the air currents and atmos- pheric conditions to ascertain the cause for the strange phenomenon

There seems to be no doubt but that the Canadian Pacific Railroad Company is seeking to reach the inter for of Alaska and the Yukon. The persistent rumor at Dawson and cer- tain acts of the company in the recent past with reference to the routes near the head of Lynn canal lead to the conclusion that this powerful company is figuring seriously upon making an effort to put itself in condition to com pete for the growing interior com merCe

WHERE WILL DAWSON BE1

The constantly increasing evidences of the permanency of the Northern country have led to a discussion of the question as to whether or not the Alas kan interior will become a permanent habitaton of man. At the beginning of the year the Dawson News asked the question. Where will Dawson be in a hundred ycars3" and forthwith it proceeds to discuss the question in this entertaining manner:
 Tt calls up an interesting specula- ton to the mind to ask the question: where will the city of Dawson be at the end of the twentieth century? Will it be a great city of brick and stone and iron, stretching along the bank Of the Yukon, or will it be a vague mem ory? Who shall say? Will this Northern country be thickly peoplcd by sturdy race of men, or will it be deserted through concentration about the great centcrs of the temper. ate zone:
 There is more to the question than may appear at first blush, and it may not be answered of-hand, as many may be disposed to do-that with the exhaustion of the gold interests in this country will fail and the legions that will come to delve in the frozen earth will fly away For this country may have been made to live in. Among these legions there will be found many who have a taste for this rigorous but stimulating climate, and they may stay; settle down permanently. And that could not happen without the de velopment oi a magnificent race of men. Into this interesting speculation the life or death of Dawson need not necessarily enter The capital Of the country may shift its position with the exhaustion of the local product and may be planted further up at the head of navigation or below at the mouth of the great river, or even after the mines are exhausted it might remain where it now is, according as the die tates of commerce.
 But the man who looks at things as they are just now-who scans the whole field, that is to say-must take into account in his estimate of the per iormance oi the twentieth century this new science of sociology that more than one of the contributors to the symposium today dwells upon. This science, ii 1t works out it's ends, will have a great deal to do with the geog raphy of the world in the coming cen tury. It will depopulate the barren plains and gather the people of earth together at the places most advant- ageous to their speedy prosperity. Most men admit that great social rev olutions or evoutions lie just across the threshhold of the future If it be true it gives rise to d pretty bit of speculation in the answer to the ques- ton, Where will Dawson be at the end oi the twentieth century. But if Dawson be here it may be incidentally observed that the Dawson Daily News will also be here with circulation double that of all other newspapers between Skagway and Nome-shoud those towns also be there. Here's to the great city of Dawson, and to it for a hundred years"

of the capital condition of the going the
scent was strong and hounds ran well and
fast. being in close pack all the way.
They were thrown in on Mr.. Spencer Wat
kins' property, three stin post and rails
were negotiated there. thence through the
farms of Messrs Cline. Maury Dove and
Bean. At this point the first check occurred
and about five miles had been covered at a
good hunting pace.
After the field had got their second wind
hounds were taken a short distance down
the pike to Woodmont, catching the scent
through the Schoonmaker and Goldsborough
properties, then to Somerset Heights. and.
circling the golf links, finished near the
club house. In all, nine miles were covered
over fair hunting country. the twenty-odd
fences being Of average size, and hounds
rated well throughout.
Among the most prominent at the death
were Mr.. Gtst Blair. acting master on Bev-
erly; Mr.. w. G. Marrow, on Lord Craven

Annual Heeting of the Amateur

The annual meeting Of the Amateur Ath-

night, and 1t promises to be the liveliest in
the history Of the union. proposition to
permit professional events to be run OF in
connection with amateur events at A. A. U.
meetings, it is believed, will start warm
dispute.
In the opinion Of many men well versed
in the history of amateur sport the intro
duction of professional contests at amateur
meetings will have the effect of making
many prominent cracks turn professionals
This was what happened in cycling racing
say these men, and they claim the same
thing would come about in athletics.
The A. A. U. officials deny emphatically
that they have any intention Of encourag-
ing professionalism, and say no rule will be
amended that would have this effect.
The idea Is merely to permit both anna
teur and professional events to be held at
the annual meetings of the Scottish socie-
ties. Those who criticise the changing Of
the rules say, however. that no rule can be
adopted that would discriminate in favor Of
the Scottish societies.

 The reunion of the Alabama Confeder- ate Veterans has given much pleasure to all the Daughters of Montgomery this past week. Few of us had realized the number of old soldiers still living in the bounds of our State, and the parade on Dexter Avenue Thursday morning was a revelation at once inspiring and pathetic. As the band played Dixie, the rebel yell was given with all the martial feryor of old, and our hearts were filled thought of the marvellous record made by the men before us. and recognized their indomitable spirit, against which even time is powerless.
 But the hats waved high in cheering showed many grey heads; empty sleeves were pinned over gallant breasts; crutches and canes gave needed support to many of our heroes; and the women looking on saw it all through a mist of tears.
 In the opening session of the reunion the esteem of the veterans for the wo- men who shared the burden and grief of the war was shown by fervent, heartfelt God bless the women of the Confederacy."
 The daughters of those women now have no nobler object, no higher aim than to help the living needy Confederate soldier. and to honor the memory of the dead.
