INCREASED SUPPLY
 OF NATIVE HAY

There has been much more native hay put up for Rampant use this year than in any previous year in the camps history. Altogether the amount probably exceeds sixty tons. s. E. Heeter received from upriver abou, thirty tons. Jim Nc. Hugh about ten tons. and McQues- ten several tons. besides some fif- teen tons put up by P. J. folboeuf a distance below town.
 IL Is worthy of note that native hay Is rising in the estimation of people having stock to feed. and Il Is predicted that the time k no, far distant when the importation of hay for Rampant use will be a thing of the past. Then the next step will be the raising of all the grain tor the camps consumption. and II may be that this highly desirable state oi affairs will come sooner than many anticipate.

A. B. ENCAMPMENT
 TO BE AT SEATTLE
First Session To Be Held
 Outside of Alaska.

Seattle, Sept. IS. At the last meeting of the Alaska Club ar engagements were begun for the holding in this city. beginning Nov. 5, of the annual grand encampment of the Arctic Brotherhood. If this encampment is brought about Se- attle will entertain several thousand of the best, brightest and most wealthy men of the Northland.
 At the club meeting Richard Mansfield White. who is an hon. orary member of the order, read letter from Dr. L. s. Keller, mayor of Skagway, grand arctic chief of the order, stating that it seemed to be the wish of the order this year to hold the grand encampment in Seattle, the first time in the history of the order that an encampment has been held outside of Alaska.
 It was decided at the meeting that the clubrooms should be placed at the disposal of the Artic Brother hood and the secretary was in structed to so inform Dr. Keller at Skagway. A committee was ap- pointed to arrange for lodgeroom to accommodate the sessions of the encampment.
 The Artic Brotherhood has a camp in every portion of Alaska. and 1000 Alaskans may attend.

CHAS. DREIBELBIS
 MAY NOT REMAIN
Likely that Fairbanks Will
 Get Our Deputy Marshal.

When Plato Mountoy was ill Fairbanks some weeks ago on his official duties as examiner of the department of justice it became known that he contemplated a rec ommendation that Fairbanks dis trict be allowed two deputy United States marshals. It is not known here whether or not the recommend ation was actually made, but it is thought very probable it was, as the large amount of business there would seem to demand it.
 Marshal Perry evidently expects that all additional deputy will be assigned to that place and has com- municated with Deputy Charles Dreibelbis at Rampant asking if it would be agreeable to him to take the place in case the opportunity offers. It is understood that MT. Dreibelbis answered af6rmatively.
 It is therefore probable that when the Valdez term of court convenes MT. Dreibelbis will receive notice to depart for Fairbanks. Of course the change would be looked on by him somewhat ill the nature of a promotion.
 There is no intimation as to who will be Mir. Dreibelbis' succe sor in the Rampant office, should the con templated change be made.

ADVANCE.
 ALASKA!
Completion of Cable Be.
 gins New Era.

The interior of Alaska is now in telegraphic communication with the outside world over an all-American line. The cable from Sitka to Val dez was completed Oct. 6. Aside from the great reduction in the cost of communication from the outside, the service will be less liable to in- terruption and will undoubtedly be taken advantage of to a much greater extent than heretofore.
 The present rate to Seattle for a ten-w word message is s. 50, instead of S5. .o5, as formerly. All points Ill southeastern Alaska are affected by the new rate: and Nome's out side service will be greatly cheap ened.
 The first message received in Rampant over the new line was to United States Commissioner I. Lindlev Green. It bore date of Oct. 6, and was as follows:
 Greeting and congratulations. The successful completion today of the government cable from Sitka to Valdez. connecting all stations in Alaska and putting us in touch with the rest of the world by an all- American line, is the most impor- tant achievement in its history and is the beginning of a new era for Alaska.
 Wagon roads and raili pads will open up the greatest mining center of the world. Other industries will quickly follow and insure that vast country's future prosperity.

RUMOR

France and Germany vs.
 U.S. and England.

The following bulletin was posted ill Rampant Friday night, Oct. 7. It naturally caused a furry of ex- citement. As it cannot be either confirmed or denied it is printed without comment

Supposed to be declared within next week. All nations sending men of war to Corean shores strip ped for action in few hours notice. All regiments ordered to be filled up to full strength of Ioo men to company"
 A correspondent was telegraphed to at Fairbanks for news regarding the war situation. The following was received ill reply:
 Fairbanks, Oct 1.-The Japa- nese have taken the water-works plant at Port Arthur, causing a water famine.
 Two Russian warships sunk in the harbor and tbe balance of the fleet badly damaged by land bat teries.
