Mountain peaks, from which steam and ashes spouted, have during the past summer kept the natives to the westward in a state of terror if the tale told in Seattle by officers of the gov ernment survey boat McArthur can be believed. Officers of the boat, which arrived in Seattle after long summers work ih the Cook inlet district, carry word of unusual activity among the volcanoes of that section. Both native and white settlers in the Cook inlet country have been in state of alarm all summer over the steam which has been rising from Mount St. Augustine and Mount Illiamna they say. "ln September ashes were to be seen on the top of the last named mountain, of which the people stand in great fear. About forty years ago Illiamna had an eruption and tidal wave swept away the houses and most of the inhabitants of Port Graham, about twelve miles from SeldoYia. About eight or ten years ago another eruption of the same volcano covered the surrounding coun- try with thick blanket of ashes.

According to the Wrangell Sentinel the new town of Petersburg, at the north entrance to Wrangell Narrows, is more than booming. Numerous new residences are in course of construc- ton, several new buildings have been complel ed, or nearly so, a new school house is being built by the Pacific Coast and Norway Packing Co.,, for the government, while the wireless tele- graph station is completed and waiting only for the apparatus to be installed. 1t is claimed that there are now not less than six hundred people who make the place their headquarters, if not thelr permanent residence, substantial slde- walks are being built in all parts Of the town and every southbound steamer calling at the place carries away from three to five hundred boxes of fresh halibut, the average being about three hundred boxes per week. The Sentinel says that everybody Tn Petersburg ap- pears to be making money and adds that the town is Ia glowing example of what may be accomplished by the con- certed action on the part of the citizens of the town. Envy among the business
 men is an unknown quantity. Every industry is encouraged by patronage, as all the citizens realize that what is of direct benefit to one is an indirect ben- eft to the community. And that is the reason why Petersburg has almost doubled its population, and improved so wonderfully during the past year"

The Northern Commercial company may send the Yukon river steamers, Seattle No. 3 and LaVelle Young, to the Susitna river next season. The Susitna is tributary of Cook inlet, and Valdez creek, tributary of the Susitna, has been the scene of the most talked-of Northern strike this season. Captain Charles Malmquist, port captain at St. Michael this year of the Northern Com merciaI company, was taken from that position in August and sent to the Su- sitna to look over the field. He was to ascertain how far up the stream is nav igable for large boats, and to see what obstacle, if any, exists at the rapids. Some have said that the rapids of the Susitna, which are considerable dis tance up the river, would limit the navi- gation of larger boats. Recent reports from Susitna state that Malmqulst, while investigating the field, had an opportunity to stake, and banned S3.5O to the pan. The steamers Seattle and Young are wintering at Fairbanks. The steamer Jeff Davis, the United States government dispatch boat. was up the Susitna several seasons ago, and it. is understood she reached point 100 miles above the mouth Capt. Malmquist was on the Yukon river steamers for several years. Should the Northern Commercial company decide to transfer any of it's boats to the Su- sitna it will in no way impair the serv- ice of the company on the Yukon. The company has twenty extra steamers laid up at Andreafski, on the lower Yu- kon, where most of them have been idle since the great rush of 1898. Last year one of the steamers, the Milwaukee, was sold to a salmon cannery concern on the Nushagak.

The single bucket or spoon dredge was evolved in New Zealand in the early eos, and was worked entirely by hand. A steam single bucket dredge was built in 1870. About 1880, bucket and ladder dredges were introduced. These were nearly all worked with power furnished by current wheels. The first steam chain bucket dredRes of the present type were introduced about 1882.

WHY NOT BUILD EVERYTHING
OF WOOD.

So-called conservative business
men in the city council oppose
concrete and steel bridge on South
Commercial street because they say
THE INTEREST ON SUCH A
STRUCTURE WOULD MAINTAIN A
WOODEN BRIDGE.
Suppose that is true? Is II n
good business argument? Let us ex-
anime into It,
The big steel bridge coust S75,-
600. At 5 per cent the annual In
terest would be $375O year.
That would maintain wooden
bridge or build one every ten years.
WHY NOT HAVE A WOODEN
ONE?
The court house cost $100, 900.
The interest on that would build a
wooden one every ten years. WHY
NOT BUILD A WOODEN COURT
HOUSE?
The city hall cost 100000. At 5
per cent you could build new
wooden city hall every ten years.
why not build a wooden city hall?
The High school cost $40 900. AT
per cent you could build new
one every ten years onthe interest
WHY NOT BUILD A WOODEN
HIGH SCHOOLE
The State house cost half mill
lion. At per cent you could build
q wooden one every ten years. WHY
NOT A WOODEN STATE HOUSE?
The interest on cement sidewalks
would build wooden ones every five
years, yet the CONCRETE SIDE
WALKS TAKE THE PLACE OF
WOODEN WALKS.
III the concrete and steel bridge
on South Commercial street cost
$4,000, at per cent interest, or
$1,000 year, WOULD THAT MAIN
TAIN A WOODEN BRIDGE?
Even II II would. Il Is not n |
good argument Smaller cities than
Salem In Idaho and Eastern oregon
are building bridges of steel and |
concrete and the rich metropolis OF
the Willamette OUGHT NOT TO
CONSIDER SUCH A THING.
When the -ople fully realize that
PERMANENT CONCRETE AND
STEEL BRIDGES ARE JUST As
ECONOMICAL As CONCRETE SIDE
WALKS AND PERMANENT BUILD
INGS, they will Sweep away a city
council that seeks TO impose wood
en- bridges upon them.
If the people are given n chance
they will express themselves in NJ
uncertain manner I'm favor OF a per-
manent bridge at South CONNER
cial street.
