Crittenden county: James Russell. St Francis county: James T. Robinson, Lee county; Jno. Mcdonald, Phillips county. It appears from the appointments made by the governor and what is believed to be the future policy of the board that Ollie killough will be the president of the board and J. C. Hawthorne will be the attorney. It is probable too that Harry Pharr will continue to hold his present position as engineer.

Seattle Responds

Seattle is going to send solid and substantial gl eetinG to Valdez and the Alaska Home Railway and it Is coming in the way of Il strong moral and finan clal assistance, to assist in the building of the road. This Is the good news flashed over the cable this mort,ing 1t comes in telegram from MT Fl D. Reynolds, who since his arrival in Seattle has performed as much work in proportion, as he did while in thls city. lie has interested meu of every calling Tn the project, and stirred up an i'm mense amount of enthusiasm As a result of the latter there is to be a great mass meeting tonight at the Alaska Club, and another is to be held in the Chamber of Commerce next Tuesday. Already the stock sub- scriptons have been very satisfactory so much so that it Is proof positive the merchants of Seattle realize the great necessity of communication to the in terlOr, aud what it will mean to them from commercial standpoint. as we'll as the fact that it will also make a handsome financial investment
 The foregoing should also be pointer to the people of Valdez and all those who are interested dn ectly or indirectly on property on the insi ie v for every share of stock which their means will allow, aud allow no more of 1t to be held outside than is absolutely necessary to insure the building of the first section of the road. The people of Valdez and those who wlll patrOnize and ship over the road, should own and operate their own road inst as far as that Is pOsSib e, and thus prevent the trust from getting Tn and gaining con- trol Every proSpectOr who is going on the inside and especially every man who owns or is interest ed in the small est degree in claims or property of any nature on the in-ide should subscr be for stock to his limit This will not only insure him a voice in the affairs of the road over which he will ride and ship. but will also repay him band somely from financial standpoint.
 The commercial interests of Seattle are quick to see these points aud 10 take advantage of them, and our read CTS mnst not be behind them The local suoscriptiou has already been d handsome one, but It. should be the duty of every Valdeziau to talk with ali tn DSe who are cpmlng out from the lDsiue aud endeaver to enlist thelr support. 1t Is only a plaiu business D. opo 'ltiUn from either s;andpoiut and Is Of equal importance to those whose business calling Is right here iu the city or on tue inside
 Let the good news from Seattle brace us all mp, and let Us show .r Reynolds that, while he Is pushing the good work tuere we are still on the band wagOu right here at homc, and sounding the trumpet cal whIcn means patriotism and iinancIal assl-taece.
