HOMESTEAD CONTROVERSY
 WAS IHE CAUSE
& Power Company's Efforts to Compel Land Locator to Vacate Re-
 suits in Investigation of Timber Cutting

of December 15 last, is- shown. which is, in part, as follows:
 "The location of said homestead and the improvement: of the same by clear ing it of timber, will seriously injure. if not totally destroy the water supply of said company. Such is the opinion of the most competent engineers, based on both theory and past experience.
 "Any interference with the water supply of this company will not only render its extensive plant valueless, but will inhict a great injury and ex- tra hazard upon all owners of property in the city of Skagway.
 Not only that, but you must under stand that all cutting of timber on the lands of the United States, in Alaska, without the authority of the govern ment, is absolutely prohibited. and any person guilty of cutting or causing the cutting of said timber, is liable to ar rest and punishment.
 "I am going to Juneau today on the Farallon, for the purpose of laying this whole matter before the United States attorney and the land office, as the gov ernment is interested in the matter, and 1 can get quicker action in that way and with less expense than through an action in tbe courts"

WIRES DOWN
Photographic Communications
 with the States Suspended

The storms of the last "A hours has prostrated the Dominion telegraph wires in all directions. Skagway and Whitehorse are not only shut of from communication by wire lwith the great world to the south of us, but the line to Dawson is down as well.
 The Dominion government telegraph people have been doing splendid work with their line this winter, the pres ent collapse being the first in nearly three months that has continued suffi- ciently long to shut off the telegraphic news. For more than eleven weeks there has not been a break in the Daily Alaskan's telegraphic service.
 It is not believed that the break will last long, and in all probability the Daily Alaskan will serve it's readers with the news of the world again to- morrow.
The daily Alaskan., 1904-04-01

The investigation, which lead to tbe action of Receiver Mullen in compeil- ing those who have been cutting timber on public lands in the vicinity of Skagway to desist from doing so 10 the future and in compelling them TO pay for the wood that has been al- ready cut, is believed by many of those interested who have investigated the matter, to have grown out of the efforts of the Northwest Light & Power Company to compel w. D. Boone to abandon a homestead entry made by the latter in the vicitity of the reser- volr of that company. It is said that instead of bringing suit in the district court to test the right of Mr. Boone to make an entry of the homestead in question, complaint was made with the department that the latter was cutting timber on the government lands con trary to law. The investigation fol- lowed this complaint.
 In substantiation of this hypothises of the trouble, letter from the attor- norney of the Northwest Light & Pow CT Company to Mrs. Boone, under date

Panama the Coming Country

"This is surely the coming country" 1" writes F. F. Cavanaugh, of Seattle, of the mineral prospects of the Panama. Ut is one of the richest, and there are only few here. The country is very large and there is plenty of timber. Only few creeks have been prospect ed. On Cleary creek there are & few claims staked.
 "There has been taken out as high as $2l 40 per pan on this creek and on Fairbanks creeis, which is another good one, they claim to have gotten 5000 in one pan."

AS they will grow in order to let the
