$4,000 with the Bank Of Suspension Bridge in
the morning. which had quieting effect on the
excited depositors.
1t is said the origin OF ti.e runor in reference

TO the Snead company. Robert A. McCord. secre-
tary OF the Hecla Iron Company the lowest bidder

The architects Of the library and the trustees
unanimous in their request 10 the Board OF

by the better quality Of the work guaranteed

The Alaska prospector., 1905-03-02

It goes without saying that the men constituting that "Alaska lob by" were on the ground with their own axes to grind," and not to sub serve any public interest. The motive behind the effort to defeat Brady for reappointment was who'll ly selfish. J. G. Held, the high cockolorum of the "lobby", went to Washington with petition against the reappointment of Brady, which contained the very laudable pro- viso that Held was good man to take the place. Did it ever occur to the minds of these petitioners that protest against one mans reappointment, coupled with a re- quest for another mans appoint ment to take his place, would be construed by every man in Wash ington to whom it was presented as an effort of one man to defeat another, and as in no wise indica- tive of the wishes of the people generally?-Record-M Miner.

Seattle. Feb 2s-Tbe Nortbues,.

Seattle, Feb. 2S-The Northwest ern Commercial Co.'S. steamship Tacoma, which left here in Jan uarv. hound for Vladivostock. wiih q cargo of salt beef, is reported as having been seen off the coast of Japan among the ice foes. A Jap anese warship is lowering near her. Some anxiety has been felt here regarding this steamer, as she had not been heard of since leaving Dutch harbor, where she took coal ]. It is probable that the Japs will capture the steamer.
 St. Petersburg, Feb. 2S-Maxice GOrky, the author who has been imprisoned for some time here, was last night released. He was imme- diately rearrested and sentenced to banishment to some unknown place. His wife was summoned to the police station in the evening to bid him farewell, and pathetic scene followed He left at midnight for the place to which he has been banished.

It is just a month nowxo the

It is just a month nowIo the municipal election, and the fact that no tickets have been:put in the field would seem to indicate that very little interestswould be taken in the election thisj year. The present council and school board have demonstrated their ef- ficiency in the management of lo- cal affairs, and though some of them have expressed their inten- tion of retiring, it is to be hoped they will reconsider their decision.
 It will take careful management next year to keep the town free from debt, and at the same time make some much needed improve ments, and it would be hard to find body of men better adapted to do this than the the present in- cumbents.
The Alaska prospector., 1905-03-02

Councilman Quinn has collected data regarding the expense of in- stalling better system of fire pro- tectNn, and is of the opinion that the expenditure can be easily man. aged during the coming year. His plan is to have a steam pump at the electric light plant, where pow CT is always available, and run a pipe line through the principal streets, with hydrants where most needed. This would cost about $2.OOO, and would be the best fire insurance we could have. It is not likely that the matter will be taken up until after election, but no time should be lost then in car rying the plan through to compile tion, SO that next winter we will be in a position to save the town from total destruction in case a fire starts in the business section.
The Alaska prospector., 1905-03-02

The agitation started by Fair banks for an all-the-year mail ser vice via Valdez is one that we should do our best to second. It will not only mean better service for the people of the interior, but 1t will also be the means of divert ing large part of the summer travel to and from Fairbanks to this route. The fact that this is best winter route has been estab- lished beyond a doubt this season, and it only needs practical dem- .onstratiOn to prove it to be the cheapest aud quickest summer route. The largest streams along the way are bridged or have ferries in operation, and now that road houses are established the trip with horse in summer will be an easy one. A man with saddle horse, by stopping at roadhouses could go in quicker and cheaper than he could by taking the steam CTS via St. Michael, and he would avoid the possibility of being hung up on the Yukon or Tanana bars for several days or weeks.
The Alaska prospector., 1905-03-02

Eastern papers are publishing an account of a blizzard in Alaska in which a party going from Fair banks to Valdez was caught and died from cold and exposure. They say that the snow at Valdez was piled in drifts 24 feet deep, and
 along the trail it was 14 to 20 feet. For the benefit of our readers in the States We wish to say there is absolutely no foundation for this story. There has not been five
 days of windy weather all winter;
