 Kodiak. Apr. 9, 1902.
 Upon the 18th of March in the PRospEcToR of Valdez, under the cloak of special to the PRospEcroR' appeared an article which we the undersigned citizens of Kodiak wish to deny and to label as rot and absolutely false.
 The objectionable part of tle ar ticle begins 1t is thought" and the Kodiak people have placed no suspicion on the people whom the PRosPEcroR correspondent suspi- ciOns.
 Second: That Judge Gallagher has never to any of our knowledge lived in adultery with any person in Kodiak or out of it On the contrary there have always been one to fourprospectors staying with him. Scandal mongers dwell in every town but business men are the ones whose opinions should be published on such questions.
 To Judge Gallagher we are in debted for more law, decency and order than ever before In prob ably no village along the coast are the natives SD respectful of our country's Law.
 Signed by twenty-five men.
 The PRospE.ToR is very careful as to what it publishes, especially when the article reflects on the character or integrity of any person or corporation, and in this case the article referred to above would not have been published if good evidence as to its truthfulness had not been presented.
 The fact that Judge Gallagher compcls law, order and respect for our country's laws." among the natives, has no hearing @n the matter mnder discussion, and has not been questioned by us
 We would like to ask the signers of the above communication if they would be willing in court to testify to the statement made in the sec ond clause.

INDIANS ARE STARVING
At Chistuchina. Several Deaths During Past Winter. No Rabbits.

The Indians at Chistuchina have been having a hard time of it this winter. In the early part of the season, "Ptarmigan" and her child starved to death. Their bodies were left in the cabin while the other Indians went after help to bury them. When they came back the wolverines had entered the house, and all there was left of the bodies was one hand. The animals had carried the rest away. Shortly afterward Chistuchina Nocolai died several miles below here. His body was sledded to the mail sta tion and put on stilts where it still remains. Johnie and Jessie the sole surviving members of the tribe, are waiting for the frost to leave the ground before burying the body. Johnie and Jessie are not over loaded with provisions. Fish Bros. have given them quite a bit of work and but for that they would have starved.
 While the rabbits have been very plentiful around Copper Center and on the Klutena, there have been none around the Chistuchina, and this fact in addition to the small catch of salmon last summer has Left them very short of provisions.

Harry Fame came down from Chisaa with the mail yesterday He reported Stingcr;s outfit pulling into ChiSna.
 The trail has heen very bad for dogs, but the horses went along fine. Shortlegged Jimmy Simpson had the misfortune to drown part of his outfit. He was going along d narrow aedge Of ice,and it gave way with him, letting both of his Sleds into tlse swift current. For tunatelv krau and Besenthal were helping him by, and held the sled against the ice until he unhitched his dogs. With the assistance of several who were passing, the sleds were hauled out. He lost sack of bacon, sack of groceries and some clothing. The worst part of ths accident was when Simpson got some water on his feet while saving the sleds. The shock almost killed him.
 Hazlett X Meals lost fine horse the same day. Henry Watkins was driving past an overflow, when the ice gave way, letting the horse and lead sled down. They were swept under the ice, leaving the trailer pinched in such position that it could be anchored. The sled and it's contents were saved. The horse was hauled onto the ice and used for dog jael.
 Between Sanford narrOws and Point Desolation there is patch q heavy snew, which has been hadly cut up iT horse outfits. On . smooth stretch near by, l saw an inscription written. It was "Oh Hell, cursed be the. of d horse man that cuts up the dog trail" The next day when | went back someone had written underneath it, "Read your Bible. hold your temper, and buy horses"

.f0R TOUR 1[AR5 ON THE KLUTENA, TRAP
 PING. News Of Clark Moore
His Footprints Seen on Nelsena. Remington and Mason Return
 From Interior.

On Monday Grant Remington who has been on the interior al- most continually since 1898, re- turned to town by the glacier trail. he was accompanied by Mir. Ma son. They were a week making from their camp at foot of Klutena lake to Valdez. It was necessary to break trail nearly all the way. In places the snow was very soft, so much SO that one could not wear snowshocs. At other times they would strike bare moraines. where for some distance they would be obliged to sled over rocks. and as they each had about 200 pounds, the trip was a hard one. It took all one day to make from the Demp- sey relief station to the foot of the third bench
 MT. Remington was one of the pioneers of this section, participa- ting in the rush of '9S. During the period of low prices in the fall of '9S and spring of '99, he purchased a large outfit of provisions, and in company with d man named Up dike, settled down at klutena lake to trap and hunt. Last spring they came to town with d load of furs. Mir. Updike took these to the States, and Remington only re- mained here long enough to secure an outfit, after which he returned to his camp on the interior.
 | Last August he was stricken with an attack of inaamnatory rheum- ati>m, and was unable to get around until some time in November. He is still suffering somewhat from this disease.
 Mir. Mason came into the coun- try last spring and went to the in terior with Remington, but did not remain at Klutena. In company with Mir. Oliver, who is now in town, and two others, he crossed the St. Anne divide and spent the season prospecting on the headwaters of the Tazlina.
 While on the Nelsena, tribu- tary of the Tazlina, which enters the lake about three miles from the mouth of the Mentelten river, his party saw fresh tracks of white man, which they believe were made by Clark Moore. This was in the latter part of August, and nothing can be learned of any other white man being in that section at the time The tracks were leading up the stream in the direction of pass to the headwaters of Matunusky river, and judging from the length of the steps taken, they considered that he was travelling without a pack and making good time. If these tracks were made by Clark Moore, and there are good re;tsons for thinking they were, then there is chance of his not having per ished as was believed.
 Signs of him were seen two weeks prior to this on the Shushetna, a long distance from the Nelsena, and the fact that he was travelling so fast would go to show that he was not weak. It was only days travel from where the footprints were seen to an Indian village, where he could secure provisions enough to last him to the Inlet, which seems to have been his des- tination. It is possible that he has stopped all winter at some vil-

So we might go on analysing ad

the outrage that was perpetrateG
on the people of Idaho by the last

way, was controlled by the same
set OF politicians who hope to con-
troll the next legislature, whose
hopes are wrapped up in this out
rageous apportionment alone, Ger.
tainly a gauzy covering for politi-

The political aspect of this appor-

portance. 1t goes beyond politics.

hey will turn down the responsible
'arty, the democratic. and blast
