WILL FIX IT
Skagway-Juneau Cable to Be
 Repaired.

It is proposed to take up and repair the Skagway-Juneau cable in June. lt win be remembered that the cable quit working last August for two or three weeks. At that time it was taken up, and while several kinks were found in it, it was discovered that it was not broken as had been supposed. At first, it was thought that the wire would be useless until after it had been taken up and relaid, but after a while the opera tors were able to get a through cur rent. It was faint and unsatisfactory at first, but got stronger and better, un- til finally it was decided to accept busi- ness again. This was done and the ca- ble has given good service until the present time.
 The arrangement for the actual lay ing of the Alaska-Puget Sound cable provides that the cable ship Burnside shall come to Alaska in June, lay a short cable from Skagway to Haines mission, do some repair work on the SSagway-Juneau cable and then go to Seattle for the first section of the long cable, which will be taken back to Juneau and the beginning made from that end. It is expected that the cable will be landed in Seattle by the middle of November.
 Gen. Greedy has been at Seattle and completed the plans for the summers work. He left Seattle for Vancouver about the 18th, where he was to meet Gen. Funston, commanding the Depart ment of the Columbia. It was his pur- pose to consult with him in regard to the laying of the cable and also to the transfer of officers now serving in the signal corps in Alaska. The officers now in the North have been there two and three years, and Cen. Greedy pro poses to take them into civilization again.
 Auo AlAdl ol 1lie NAiN"'' '"A '''N ''N' ing place of the Alaska cable in Seat tie, provide it shall be landed at the Arlington dock and taken through a conduit to the Walker building on the ground floor Of the University street side. These arrangements are, of course, subject to the necessary per mits from the city council.

NO WONDER
Knockers Against Tansna
 Surprise no One.

No one is surprised or disappointed that many of the first stampeders from Dawson Co the Panama are returning and giving the country a bad name. Such is the idea Of c. E. Jones, the Dawson trader who recently arrived overland from Dawson. He says that such is the result with all mining countries at first, and he gives further reason'why it is particularly the case with the people from the Panama.
 Many of those who started to the Panama from Dawson and who are now returning with words Of dispairagement for the country, according to Mir. Jones. never reached the promised land at all. They simply got far en- ough Co discover that the prospected country, that where the ground had been proven of value, had been located. They became convinced that there would be no claim that had already been prospected and it's richness dem onstrated ready for their occupancy, so they turned about and came home. or course they said there was nothing there for any man who was going into the country looking for a gold mine.
 These people, Mir. Jones thinks, will not have any great influence in in- auenciug people in connection with the country; for the reason that it is not a bad sign. He thinks there are golden for proSpectors in the Panama.

EVERY good thing comes from
old Mother Earth. The future
hope of every country depends
upon it's sturdy soil tillers. The
men who have grown from the
ground up" are the ones who
have fought the battles of the
world. The safeguard of the
nation lies in a large and pros
porous rural population. The
residents of Mason Valley do
not seem to be aware of what a
wonderful heritage they possess
in the one hundred thousand
acres of fertile land which lies
within the valleys borders. The
day is not far distant, however,
when the home-seeker will find
out what splendid opportunity
is here offered, and begin to drift
in. Then q perfect irrigation
system will be established, the
large holdings will be cut up into
small farms, numerous creamer-
les, starch factory and posi-
bly, a beet sugar factory will be
established, and thrifty homes
with neat, tidy residences and
outbuildings will dot each 100
acre tract of land where now
only flourishes the sagebrush
and the crossword. All that is
necessary to bring about this
new condion of things is TO adj
vertise our resources to the out
side world and get the tide of
immigration headed this way.
In our humble way we shall en-
deavor to start the ball a'rolling
but would feel a little more en-
couraged if we could notice a
spirit of cooperation among the
residents. However, we shall
see what time and perseverance
will bring forth in this matter.

In THE last issue of the TINES
the statement was made that
young Beckert, the Virginia boy
who took the examination for
the Annapolis cadetship in Reno,
did not get a fair deal. Prof
Levers, of the University, writes
us that we must have been mis-
informed, that Young Shonerd,
cf Carlin, stood highest, Palmer
of Reno, second, and Beckert
third, there being only a differ
ence of one per cent. in the
standing the two last named
boys. Our information of last
week was obtained from one of
the Virginia papers; we apollo
gize for having for moment be-
lieved it could be reliable. What
