0iax Calls q Counsel Of His Gov.
ernors-A Revolution
Threatened.

Laredo, Tex.-Trouble OF a serious
nature Is brewing south Of the Rio
Grande, and President Diaz has sum.
moned the governors Of all the Mex.
lean states to the City Of Mexico for
the purpose of q conference.
The trouble, 1t IL claimed, has been
fomented by agitators, who have i'm
pressed the laboring classes that they
are oppressed by the foreigners, par.
ticularly Americans, or Gringoes. This
Is particularly directed toward Amer.
leans holding railway positions and
working in the mines. Everywhere
in Mexico, and particularly in the
northern states, circulars have been
distributed calling on Mexicans to
drive the Gringoes from the country
on September 16, the Mexican inde-
pendence day. Mexico for Mexicans."
is the cry Of the circular.
Many Americans are leaving the
country. The American railway men
have appealed to the United States
for protection.
Gen. Reyes, commander of a division
OF the Mexican army, and governor
OF the state of Nuevo Leon, 1t Is re.
ported, has taken advantage Of the
discomfort, and is planning a revolu-
ton. He 10 idolized by the army.
Predicts War With United States.
New Orleans-E. j. Mather, of Ohio,
has arrived here with his family from
Mexico. He said: In my opinion, war
Will break out between the United
States and Mexico within less than six
months. The situation in Mexico is
alarming. The anti-foreign sentiment
hal grown to such an extent that I
do not believe the Mexican govern
ment can cope with it successfully.
n a~nti-foreign movement is strong
est In the northern and central por.
tons of Mexico, where the natives
have been wrought up to a high pitch
of excitement by agitators and agents
OF revolutionary societies. The upper
class of Mexicans are not in sympathy
with the movement, but they are in
a hopeless minority. The army is re.
cruited from the lower classes, and
can not be relied upon"

Yukon Valley news., 1906-01-31

LAST fall the prediction was pretty freely made that the outcome of the work for the present winter at Rampant would be considerably lower than that from the previous winter. The prediction was based on the fact that this is becom- ing largely summer camp, and on the further fact that some very good ground is lying idle while its owners are outside perfecting arrangements to work it at better advantage. It is not little sur prising and gratifying, therefore, to find that within the past few weeks many of the best posted men here have revised their opinion, and now believe this will prove to be the best winter the camp has yet had. It is undcniable that many are doing better than they had expected to do.

THE MATTER OF THE MAILS.

Mail service along the Yukon river this winter is up to the very highest degree of efficiency. Not a single time since the winter schedule went into effect has the mail from either up or down the river failed to be on time.
 And right here it is well to look to it that this excellent service be not per mitted to cause d relaxation of effort on the part of the board of trade and oth- CTS who have been trying to have the Valdez Panama route changed so as to come by way of Rampant. According to the figures of Major Richardson the dis tance from Fairbanks to Rampant is l 10 miles; and from Rampant to Panama by the regular mail trail is 75 miles, mak- ing the distance from Fairbanks to Panama by Rampant lS5 miles. The distance from Fairbanks to Panama by the present mail route along the Panama river is put down by Major Richardson at 2l5 miles, leaving the route by Ram part 20 miles shorter than the one at present in use. The route by Rampant is settled route; the newly established telegraph line trayer-cs it, and the pro- passed government wagon ruad and trail is proiectc,l along the same line the whole of the way between Fairbanks and Rampant. Hy adopting this route mail servire ruuk be rendered. tu ssv- eral huu,lr,'i people; whereas the Fuuts at present. travers.si lirs tor ntsst part through an uuinhabitesi waste.
Yukon Valley news., 1906-01-31

These are some of the facts which have, accompanied by maps and such data as bears on the subject, been sub mitted to the postofflce department
 With a naivete that was as unexpected as disheartening, a reply was received to the effect that it is not the policy of the department to serve people east of the Panama over this route! A knowledge of that very fact is what moved the peo- pie to try to induce the department to change its policy.
 An implied right on the part of the contractor to use the Rampant route if he sees fit was contained in the letter from the department. And now that the Northern Commercial Company has secured the contract for the coming four years for carrying the mail between Valdez and Panama, the attention of Jules Marion, the companys mail su- perintendent, is respectfully called to this view of the matter. It is not known whether or not that contract will be under MT. Marion's supervision; but if so, and by the department he is voushsafed the liberty of choosing the route, it is natural to believe that the mail will be carried by Rampant next winter which in itself would be of no value to people along the line so far as outside mail is concerned, but would be of advantage locally and would fur nish communication with Fairbanks, which is now practically nonexistent.
 Meantime, the effort should not be abandoned to secure for the people of Rampant and the creeks between here and Fairbanks the full benefit of the improved facilities of the Valdez route.

Sleigh Party
 For Little Minook

Three sleigh loads of good fellows took trip to Little Minook today and if we may judge by the noise they made coming home, they must have enjoyed a pleasant day
 One of the party was heard to remark Say, if you want good fast sleigh ride, leave your order at the marshal's s office; he has the best dog team in Ra mpart "
 Why does Judge Green take those long walks every day, 1 wonder?
 The boys on and 9 Little Minook are doing lots of hard work with good fair results. Crockett and Seyler had their boiler set up and ready to fire. They expect to put in thaw tonight.
