 The indications that steamers will be plying the Yukon earlier this year than has been the case in any previous sea- son in the history of navigation on the upper reaches of that river are plenti- ful. It is open at various places be- tween Whitehorse and Dawson. High water, caused by the melting of the ex- traordinarily heavy snowfall in the Yukon valleys, is carrying the ice away from it's shore moorings.
 The vicinity of Turnagain Arm has been the scene of considerable placer and hydraulic mining since 1897, and every year some three or four hundred men have been employed in this in- dustry. During 1904 and 1905 several companies took in heavy machinery for hydraulic mining, and during the present season these companies should be in a position to demonstrate wheth- CT or not their operations will result in commercial success. This portion of Alaska has been handicapped in the past because of transportation difficult ties. A 52-ft. tide is not an unusual oc- currence in Turnagain Arm; con- sequently navigation, especially in small boats such as are used by pros pectors, is hazardous in the extreme, but with the advent of the Alaska Cen tral railroad into this portion of Alas ka many of these transportation diff faculties will be overcome.

 For not few seasons Alaska has been: winning recognition, at least on the Pacific coast, as a summer resort, the principal objection recorded being the intoIorable pest of mosquitoes on the Yukon. But to find it's winter eli mate drawn into serious comparison with that of the continental United States is somewhat of surprise to those who picture the Alaska winter as a field of great white silences under the Arctic night, broken only by the growl of the train dogs as they "mush on," or that wolf's long howl that has been credited to Unalaska's lonely shore.

 Old Chief Sanihat, who has made Kasaan his home for years, is now moving bag and baggage to Redondo, where he probably will spend the re- maining years of his life. Chief Sani- hat is now an old man, nearly blind and is unable to walk about the streets without a guide. Chief Sanihat ar rived in Seattle this morning in charge of w. l.. Bunard, we'll known Alas kan, says the Seattle Times. On the vessel was the chiefs hut and six totem poles. In all the chiefs house and queer carved sticks weighed 210 tons. It is understood that parties in Cali fornia are assembling representatives of all Indian tribes in the United States at Redondo. Following Chief Sanihat will be about dozen men, women and children who have agreed to go to California for exhibition pur- poses. It is said that Indians are now reaching Redondo from many parts of the country and that during the sum- mer an Eskimo village will be estab- lished with natives from Nome and vicinity. The native house was taken to pieces and many of the timbers are water logged. The shack had been standing for many years and had been the home of the old chief on Prince of Wales Island. Purser Cummins, of the Al-Ki, says that Chief Sanihat had to be told what was on his plate at meal time and that it was difficult for him to get about alone. Chief Sanihat dresses in American clothes and makes good appearance on the street.

REBUILDING OLD ROAD
There is More or Less Talk of Recon-
structing the Famous National
Turnpike.

There is more or less talk in the
newspapers about the restoration of
the old National Road as a national
highway. says the New Paris Mirror
Every little while a suggestion comes
first from one place and then an
other. that this be done. The auto
lists want it done and their influence
will count for something and will
gradually increase. The enthusiastic
good roads advocate can see how
such a highway, scientifically CON
struCtcd and stretching across sew
eral states, would be an object lesson
that would go far toward the educa-
ton and development of public senti-
nent and thus exert a wonderful in
tluence for the bettcrment of roads
everywhere. 1t is not likely. how
ever. that any appropriation will be
made by congress for such a purpose
1t is a great pity that the money
spent on battleships and naval man
euyerS could not be expended to
build such a road. 1t wouldn't take
much of it.
