of gasoline at Juneau, one feels that there is still hope for success, because those who know that city and the hills back of it are sure that one can reach it by steamboat or airship. A steam boat can pack an automobile, and if the conditions ol the contest make an overland. route compulsory an airship powerful enough to carry the cars may be invented
 From Juneau to Nome would be a matter of very little trouble. The con testauts could take an ocean steam boat or follow the Yukon route before the rreeze-up. And so on to Behring Straits, from which point they could reach Vladivostok if they keep well out to sea. From that city roads or railroads or something will be found for the remainder of the journey to Gay Farce and the other ccntcrs of hrro-making newspapers
