WORK BEGUN ON
 PORTAGE ROAD

Work was begun on the Prince of Wales island Portage road, by the United States Road commission on Juno 2Oth. F. E, Sylvester, who has been connected with the road commission, arrived at Ketchikan early in the week and left immediately for Sunny Point to lay out the road. Ia this work he will employ from six to eight men and expects to be ready for the actual con- struction work about July l, at which time he will require the services of about twenty-five additional men.
 The commission has determined to build a wagon road twenty feet in width. The ground will be cleared and msds suitable for travel wherever pasSible without the use of blanks or other material. The boggy places, however, will be corduroyed aud all low places built up.

THREATS

The republican lerders of Washing ton are quoted as being apprehensiVe that the campaign against the Beef Trust aud the packing concerns Is threatening injury to the party II pushed too far. The money, the power and the influence of the trust will be turned against the party unless the president and the reiormerS in con gress relax the pressure they are bring lng to bear in urging drastic legisla- lion against Packingtown. If this is really the fact, it is high time for the people of this land to be informed of 1t. When the welfare of a political party
 comes to depend on concessions to B combined monopoly, it Is necessary to give that party thorough overhaul ing. If the republicans are made to see the ill-will of trust by advocating the cause of the people against cor
 porate greed, the sooner that fact is openly demonstrated the better for the antitrust movement all along the line.
