Agricultural Center
with regard to agriculture, i
seems to me that the agriculture
heart of Alaska lies in the Tanans
valley, the Forty-mi and Copper riv
er. These valleys are adapted to per
manent farming. 1t is possible that
wheat might prove profitable, but
barley, oats and hay could be raised
in abundance there and enough cat
tie could be raised to sell on the
hOof to miners along the Yukon.
look to see these valleys become the
home of a permanent farming popu

"One thing ,,at has struck us deep
ly is the need Of good roads. We
have not We met in committee to con
slider the question of providing these
roads, but we are all agreed on the
need of roads for the development of
Alaska.
With regard to territorial govern
ment, we found quite little boom in
it's favor in the archipelago. and to
some extent we have struck that opin-
ion again in Nome, but the miners on
the Yukon were dead against it and
did not hesitate to express them
selves on the subject"
The senators left last Saturday by
the Mccullough, their intention being
to visit Seal Islands.

progress in this peninsula. Before
their arrival they looked upon Nome
as little more than beach mining
proposition. and the immense Lane
pumping plant to which they were
first taken on visiting the creeks, was
revelation to them.
"There is nothing like it in Daw-
son." exclaimed Senator Dillingham;.
The work they saw on Anvil and
adjoining gulches, was also a great
surprise On No s, above Anvil, they
san an $4,000 cleanup. as the result
of a brief amount Of shoveling.
What impressed them most, how
ever, was the deep placer mining on
Dexter Hill. Senator's Patterson and
Nelson went down to the Snowflake
claim, where the deepest shaft is 23O
feet, and PANIED in the rich pay
streak. They also went down the
shaft of the sugar claim. When ask
ed his impression of this mining, Sen
ator Patterson, to whom all the other
senators defer on mining matters,
said:
"A piece of mining that would as,
tonish people of Colorado. You mine
here for placer as we mine for quartz.
In Colorado We sink shafts to tap the
rich quartz, here you make deep
shafts to strike rich pay-streaks in
your placers The difference is that
we have to use fire and chemicals to
treat our quartz, and water suffices to
extract gold from your placers. This
deep placer work is all new to me,
and it is the most wonderful thing

Senator Dillingham;, when asked
about the visit to Dawson, said that the
Northwest mounted police system had
impressed all the senators and that
they were trying to discover a plan
10 adapt the system to American
ideas.
We We're impressed especially with
the way these police patrol the river
and prevent criminals from escaping.
All the senators expressed a desire
to End means of lettering the con
ditiOn of the Eskimos, whose camp
they had visited in the Sandspit. and
they invited suggestions on the sub
ject. They were told that the Eski
mos are always willing to share their
last bite of fish on the trail with the
white stranger and that in more than
one instance officers at the post, who
had succOred starving natives with
rations, had not had their bills allow
ed by the department. The senators
expressed the opinion that army com
manders at the various posts ought
to have the right to afford temporary
relief to starving natives.

court with a jaunty air full of as
surance, and they maintained It un-
til Ernest Penner, the youth who was
associated with them In planning the
crime, appeared as a witness, and then
the boys both showed fear and ner-
vousness.
Penner claimed that he talked to
Young about the robbery and 1t was
planned at the Piedmont bowling al
leys. He said that Jake Stevens, Leo
Essner and Young were in the crowd.
Later at Wackerly's saloon Young
brought up the subject and said he had
afellow to help who had just gotten
out of the workhouse. They went in
to the saloon and saw another boy
sitting there who was to help out with
the job.

that Forsythe was to help with the

He left them a little later and the
next thing he heard of the job being
done. In cross examination he said
tnat he did not believe that they
would do what they had planned,
and gave that as an excuse why he
remained with them as long as he
had.
DR.. Fraunfelter was the first witness
examined. He described the wounds
of Miller and said that his skull was
fractured in five places. He did not
consider him out of danger
