the difference being the expense of the wagon bridge. Though no careful es- timate has been made, the expense is roughly placed at between $3O,OOO and $40 O0O The railroad company of course would expect the county to agree to keep its part of the bridge in repair after it is constructed. It is immaterial to the railroad company whether the wagon bridge is constructed or not, but the offer having been made some time ago the company desires to give every possible opportunity for the people to consider it, though it is necessary to come to an early understanding in the matter. that orders may be placed for material as soon as possible, as ma terial cannot be secured on short mo- tice.
 The supervisors listened attentively to the matter laid before them, feeling that it is something in which a large part of the county is interested. But they decided they could do nothing, at present at least, but take the matter under consideration. In the "rst place there is at this time no available fund for such a purpose. and the board does not understand what authority it may have for raising such a fund. If by taxation it is too late to do 1t this year; If by bonding at the present time it would require an expensive election. and any other method would necessi- tate previous action by the legislature.
 Again the supervisors, while appre ciating the great convenience and value of the bridge. are doubtful if it will be worth as much to the county as it will cost, and would want an expression of the people on the subject before they took action.

MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENT.
COyNCILMEN.

The assessment roll for the city
has been completed and will foot
Pup. to about 100000. Ii all the
taxes are paid there will be $1,000
from>this source of revenue toward
the expenses Of the city for the en-
suing year. But the full amount
will not be paid, it being estimated
that about $500 OF this amount
will be collected. This will not lac
enough for the running expenses of
the coming year, and more money
will have TO be raised from other
sources. A small amount has been
raised from poll taxes, but not one
half of the residents Of town have
paid that tax, and il il difficult to
get the proper man to act as col
lector. The council will probably
make it one Of the requirements OF
q voter to have paid his poll tax.
If this is done. several hundred
dollars will be raised. A large
amount could be collected from dog
licenses if the owners. could have
their dogs protected from the dis
eased animals that infest the town
and are allowed to run loose on the
streets, but after last years exper-
fence OF paying license on their
dogs and then not receiving any
protection. whatever, it is not likely
that any one will pay dog license
this year.
No one should object to the pay
ment Of their taxes this season.
The assessment in nearly all cases
is low, in fact TOO low for the best
interests of the town. There are
many improvements that should
and must be made in the spring if
Valdez expects TO keep up her rep
ntation as the leading town OF AL
aska. 1t therefore behooves every
one who is interested in the well
fare of Valdez to come forward and
cheefiully pay their taxes at an
early date.

COPPER RIVER INDIANS.

letter written by well known
prospcctor and pioneer in this sec
ton, in answer to a request for the
prospcctor's opinion as to the adj
visibility OF assisting the. natives
in some way, gives n good descrip-
ton OF the Indians and their me-
thod OF living. The letter is from
one who has had every opportunity
for the last four years, of studying
the natives in their everyday life.
"Of course there are individual
exceptions. but in general, and in
comparison with other Western In
dams, they are honest, cleanly, i'm
dus,rious and inclined to be eco
nomieal. They are apt, quick
witted, musical and mirlhful. As
to their honesty, they have been
trusted by prospectors and traders
and havcspaid their debts. They
have cared ior provisions for pros
pectors when they themselves were
in almost starving condition.
with their way of living it would
be unreasonable 10 compare their
cleanliness with civilized whites,
but they are very regular i'll taking
steam baths. Their simple mode OF
improvising Russian bath house
is interesting and complete. Be
sides being effective in cleanliness
it is conducive to good health, and
they claim (anu l believe justly
that it erradicates and prevents
rheumatism.
while they are unaccustomed to
the continued hard labor of the
white man, they spend much oi
their time in hunting, trapping
and fishing, and during the last two
summers, several have been lucra-
lively engaged in ferrying pros
pectOrs across tie rivers. They are
learning not to spend their money
for worthless trash, but are inclined
to save it, for the purchase OF flour
and staple necessities.
They could not speak word OF
English in 1898; now they are able
10 converse so that they can be UNI
derstood. They take a great inter
est in pictures of railroads, siean.-
boats, tall buildings and the white
mans improved methods of living.
They are often very quick spoken
and quick to think and act, thereby

whistling or humming, any tune

They desire to progress and they
say they hope some time 20 build

Our attention is being constant
~ called to the fact that there are
q number OF horses going loose
through the town, with apparently
no one to look after or feed them.
They are being reduced to a very
poor condition for there is nothing
around the streets now for them to
live on hut tin cans and beer boz
ties. The owners of these animals
would do well TO gather them in

THE TARIFF AND THE TRUSTS.

People,

From Washington comes the an
nouneement that the executive com
mlttee Of the democrats Congressional
committee is considering plans for MAX
ing the trusts and tariff the leading lf-
sue Of the coming campaign for the
election Of Representatives in the ma
tioual congress.
The democratic party has every
thing TO gain from n campaign con
Quoted On the issue, says the st. Louis
Republic. indeed, the situation ~ that
the people themselves arc debating
the issue for the political struggle Of
this year and of 1905 They have come
60 see so clearly the truth that the
tariff imposes a heavy burden upon
them for the exclusive benefit of the
trusts that the paramount nature of
this Issue Is made absolutely certain.
They have learned. through the beef
trusts greed and arrogance, the nj
tsmatc evil Of the trust system 60
such a convincing extent that they
demand with Irresistible insistence the
correction Of truStism by means of
revision Of the tariff that shall destroy
the trust monopolies Of products and
markets.
TIA democratic party win meet the
people half way by making the con-
rrrhsional campaign on the tariff
trusts issue. There is no hope Of re-
publican action against the trusts or
for revision of the tariff. That party
Is 30 completely under the dominance

OF the trusts end of the burdcnsome
tariffs which create the trusts, and II
must be removed from power In the
government as the first step toward re-
lief from tariff taxation and irusiism.
Never before In this country has there
been so distinct an alignment of the
people against a favored and priv
ilered class as is now witnessed.
The democratic congressional com
mittee should BY ali means make trusts
and the tariff the paramount issue Of
the approaching campaign. The cam
paigH literature, the work Of demo-
cratic speakers and Of demOeratin
newspapers, must ali deal aggressive
il with this issHe. The American peo.
r,ie are determined upon relief from
frustism and the tariff and the nat tlonal
democracy must lead the movement
which shall terminate In victory for
the people.
