MINERS 0F THE TANANA
 DECLARE FOR 8 HOURS
Whole District Organized to Start the New
 System at the Cleanup.

Just as there was an utter absence of heat, so also was haste absent. The as socation will be in no hurry to present its request for more rational and hu- mane working day to the employers.
 On the contrary it is not likely to be made until the sluicing season is at hand, in order that the operators may have ample time to consider the change and become adjusted to the new condi- tions before the hurry of the cleanup is on
 Since the big meeting in Cleary, prac- tically every mine worker on the big creek has become an active member O. the United Mine workers of the Panama, continues the paper above quoted. The Cleary membership roll now numbers more than 300, and the fact that u le organization has become fixture in t. t economy of the camp is recognized ger erally by merchants and men in all walks.
 Dome creek is almost as solidly signed up also, and word comes from Ester that the boys over there are busy along the same line. On Fairbanks creek the work has been taken up and reports sent to the officers of the Cleary local state tina, a solid organization can be counted upon. It is evident from the progress of the movement as outlined in the Rec ord that organization will be thorough throughout the district. So far the plan has hot included utilization with any outside body.
Yukon Valley news., 1907-03-27

Very quietly, altogether good natur- edly and with conservatism that does them credit, the working miners of the district have taken he first steps toward a complete revolution of mining opera tions in the Panama, says the Miners Record, of Fairbanks, March II.
 At meeting held on Wednesday night in A. B. hall in Cleary, they first organ ized and then went on record for an eight-hour working day.
 It was the unanimous opinion that the ten hour shift now the custom, made of work soul-killing matter, and only resulted in so uniting the workman that he could not long produce his best possible results in return for his days wage.
 The eight hour day was the one matter that became of record. Other abuses which are practiced in many of the workings were for the time ignored The evening was passed in calm discussion of the proposition for shorter hours and the best way to approach the mine own CTS in the effort to attain them.
 There was no fire eating, no demagogic spellbnding, nor was there made eEi- dent any trace of i'll feeling against the mine owners. Ii was cold -blooded busi- ness, and as such it was discussed and disposed of, and at the end the Placer Miners Association was a fact and 227 working miners had signed the roll and paid in the one-dollar initiation fee.

Wide Range of Difficulties
 on Panama Run.

%, yes," remarked Ed Biederman yesterday, Carrying the mail between here and Panama has been fine business this winter--if fellow don't care what he says.
 "Why, there has been but one run since early this winter on which could trot the dogs. On many stretches the trail drifts full as fast as it is broken and the little siwash trail finder that is sent ahead gets off and founders in snow clear over his back. I have staked the trail in the worst places with hun dreds and hundreds of willows, but mushers come along and pull them up for dog pelters. They ought to be ar rested
 "Under such conditions it takes ten hours to run between stations that five would be plenty for with decent going. Eat? Why 1 am creating shortage that may get ssrious in this section if we don t have an early break up,
 ''fve got as good a dog team as ever was but last Sunday they couldn't face it and l had to go back to the cabin and wait for it to quiet down a bit. It just lifted 'em right up in the air. And now they are getting the distemper and will have to be doctoring all the time. They got it from them Panama dogs.

LONE MUSTER
 MAY BE LOST
Acted Queer and Nothing
 Heard of Him.

On the up trip Sunday before last Mail Carrier Ed Biederman saw a lone musher whom he fears has met with some accident.
 Mir. Yantis was in company with MT. Biederman and they spent the night at the Scheiffelin creek mail cabin. A stranger, apparently a Swede, staid all night there also'and took the trail some two hours before they did next morning Trey did not see him again and nothing could be heard of him either up or down the river. The man neither came on to It was blowing when he left Scheiffelin creek and of course his tracks were ob- liberated almost at once.
 Peculiar actions of tine man make Biederman believe he was not altogether capable of taking care of himself. -At' Scheiffelin creek lie made both supper and breakfast off of q few crackers and a little condensed milk which he carried, and declined to eat with the mail car rier. He was not properly dressed for the trail. He said he had come from Valdez, where he had been at work on the railroad, and was looking for S10 diggings. Mr Biederman describes him as a man of powerful physique, but says he seemed pretty well Jagged out
 It is Mr Biederman's intention to make all investigation possible on the down trip on which he started this morning.

CANADA WANTS
 THE NORTH POLE

Ottawa, Feb. 2l.-Senator Poirer gave notice today that he would move in the senate resolution declaring that the time has come when Canada should make formal declaration of possession or all the lands and islands situated in the territory to the north as far as the north pole.
 As had been shown by Captain Der nier and others, there are illimitable stretches of land that may become avail. able hereafter. This is today held to be unclaimed, while in reality 1t is part oi the domain of Canada, and if some action is not taken by the government to assert title to it there may be trouble in the hereafter arising from explorers of other nations claiming portions of this vast territory tor the countries they represent by virtue of discovery.
