ROAD COMMISSIONER
 APPOINTED.
Mining Man Named for the Posi- ton and the Law To Be
 Complied With.

United States Commissioner Green has appointed w. B. Ballou road com missioner for Rampant precinct for the fiscal year beginning with the present month.
 It is said the road law will be rigidly enforced Commissioner Green says it is his belief that ma ajority of the mi ners in the precinct want the law to be strictly complied with, and he appointed a mining man to the position with that end in view.
 The appointment is peculiarly appro- priate Mr. Ballou is secretary of the miners association, and is in q position to know both the time and the places for doing the work that will be approved by the miners.
 Heretofore in this precinct there has been no pretense of enforcing the road law The road proposition has been so formidable one that by common con sent it has been allowed to go by default With roads once constructed in the pre- cinct it is believed the law would be ample to keep them in repair Under the conditions actually existing slight betterment may be effected, and the miners at their forthcoming meeting on Glen will have an excellent opportunity to make known their wishes regarding the work-from which, of course, they will receive the principal benefit, and most of which they will have to perform or pay for.

MANAGER KOONCE'S
 RETURN.
Assumes Charge of Rampant City Gold Mines Company's
 Affairs.

Manager NJ. F.. koonce of the Ram part Gold Mines Company arrived, by way of Valdez and Fairbanks, last Wednesday afternoon.
 Since his arrival MT. koonce has been busy with the affairs of his company
 It is announced that certain disturb ing complications that had arisen with Donald Mclean over water rights on Hoosier creek have been adjusted and preparations for work on that creek will be pushed as rapidly as possible.
 The Big Minook proposition, from which a large portion of the hydraulic appliances was removed this winter for work on Hoosier, has by no means been abandoned; but operations there will eventually proceed along the general lines originally contemplated by the company. Mr. koonce said, since the Hoosier proposition has been under taken and will for the time being occupy the company's attention, it can not be stated with certainty when work will be resumed on Big Minook; but the ground there will be worked, either with the plant originally placed there or with d new one. Mir. Koonce added that he did not think the companys arrange ment with the Hoosier people would be in any wise detrimental to its Big Minook interests; but, on the contrary, may result in benefit in giving plenty of time for properly installing the large works.
 It seems assured that the company's undertakings will be prosecuted with energy.
