FLAG IS FLYING ON
MI. 'K|N[EY
Three Men Verify State
ment of Lloyd, Who
Reached the Top.

Fairbanks, Alaska, June 10.-Pete
Anderson, w. r. Taylor and Charles
McGonnigle, who were with Tom
Lloyd when he reached the summit
of Mount Mckinley, April 3, arrived
at Fairbanks today with the an
nouncement that they climbed the
mountain a second time, reaching the
summit May II. They cOrroborate
in every detail the story Of the first
ascent as told by Lloyd.
These men did not return to Fair
banks with Lloyd in April, but re-
manned at Katishna, in the foothills
of the mountain. At the request of
Lloyd they retraced their steps up
tie mountainside to take more pho
tographs to be used as proofs to be
submitted to the committee of the
Order of Pioneers of Alaska appoint
ed to investigate the Lloyd story.
1t took the men a month to attain
the summit over the trail staked by
the parry on the first ascent. Upon
reaching the summit, May II, they
found the flag left there six weeks
before intact and the flagstaff firmly
planted in the rocks. The climbers
left provisions in camps along the
trail for use of any party that wishes
to verify their story by following the
route taken by them
ProspectorS just returning from
the vicinity of Mount Mckinley
bring additional Notifications of the
stories told by Lloyd and his asso-
ciates. They say that the flag is
plainly visible from the foothills.
The Northern Commercial company
agent at Kuskokawim says that the
flag on the summit of Mount McKin-
ley is also visible from that side of
the mountain.

JAPAN WILL SEND
FLEET
Mexico is Elated Over Pre-
parations Made to Cele-
brate Independence.

New Orleans, June 10.-Much sig
nificance is attached to the proposed
visit of the Japanese fleet to Mexico,
according to dispatches received here
from Central America. The Latin
American is inclined to regard the
visit which is to be made upon the
occasion Of Mexico's centennial cell
ebration Of her independence, as a
diplomatic stroke by Japan and
prints rumors of special ENJOYS be-
ing sent at the same time to carry
on negotiations with the Central
American republics. 1t Is also
claimed Japan will take advantage
of this visit to bring about a treaty
relative to the canal In Nicaragua for
which England furnished the money.

GIVE NO CONCERT
Lack of Practice Prevents Regular
Friday Night Concert.

Conductor Simpson, who has
charge of the band during Louis
Orchards absence, will not bring
out the band tonight.
Lack of practice is given for the
reason, only eight members being
present for practice last Monday
night.
While the public will be disap-
pointed about the concert, there is
nothing to be done until more prac-
ticing is had.
Conductor Simpson is planning
another band, organized on a differ
emit basis, and expects to develop
some new material

CHALLENGES JUDGE
B|JRKE'S LABOR RECORD
Organized Labor on the Sound Takes the Seattle Sena
torial Candidate to Task for His Position Regarding
the Introduction of the Oriental Races Into This
Country Recall Chamber of Commerce Resolution.

Organized labor is challenging
Judge Thomas Burke, candidate for
United States senator, on his stand
on the oriental question and Asiatic
labor.
An open attack under the caption,
"A vote for Burke Is vote for the
Orientals," is made this week by the
Tacoma Labor Advocate, the organ
of organized labor in the city of Ia
coma and vicinity. Attention Is call
ed to Judge Burke's Monaghan res
olution presented by him as chair
man of the committee on national af-
fairs and passed by the Seattle
chamber of commerce March 20,
1907. The resolution in question is
as follows:
According to the reports of the
Associated Press dispatches from
Washington, the settlement of the
question involving the rights of jap
anese children to attend the schools
of San Francisco is to draw after it
the negotiation of a new immigra-
ton treaty with Japan.
1t is the opinion of the Seattle
chamber of commerce that a major
ity of the people of the Pacific coast
are not in favor of any immigration
treaty that will treat the people of
Japan different from the way in
which we treat the people of any Eu-
ropean country. We recognize that

FIREMEN LOSE AGAIN
Republics Won the Ball Game-The
Firemen Still Feel the HoodOo.

By a score of Z to 0 the Repub-
lies team won from the Firemen
last night. In practice work the
Firemen do we'll but in the games
they find a hoodoo that holds them
down To date they have not won
game.
Never say die" is the Firemen's
motto and they are practicing hard
er all the time. Like the First team
that continues to do better all the
time, the Firemen will make good,
too, before the season closes.
The Republic team heads the
league now in per cent and games

the United States and the empire of
Japan are bound together by ties of
trade, commerce and old friendship,
which in the past have proved of
great advantage to both countries,
and If preserved, contain sure
pledge of still greater benefits for
the future.
Detrimental to Trade.
We believe that any immigration
treaty which would discriminate
against Japan by denying to the peo-
pie of that country ordinary rights
Or privileges granted to the people
of other civilized countries would be
uncalled for and would be detrimen-
tai to the trade and commerce of the
Pacific coast, and by checking the
growth, development and prosperity
of the section, would tend to direct
ly narrow the field of employment
of our own people and decrease the
demand for our own labor.
Therefore, be it resolved, that in
the opinion of this chamber of COM
merce, it would be against the best
interest of the Pacific coast and of
the whole country to conclude any
treaty or enact any law, the effect
of which would be to treat the peo-
pie of Japan in a manner different
from the treatment accorded to the
people of other civilized powers.

LITTLE PROTEST ON
SEWER ROLLS
Citizens Interested, Many
Calling at the City
Clerks Office.
START WORK SOON
Bond Buyers Would Extend
Time of Bonds From
5 to 10 Years.
START WORK SOON

The sewer assessment rolls in the
Office of the city clerk are being
visited daily by parties interested.
While naturally there is some dis
satisfaction yet in the main the prop
|erty owners feel very we'll satisfied
with the prospects of soon being able
to have a complete sewerage system.
Next Tuesday will be the evening for
protests on this work and the coun-
Gil is anxious that a good represen-
tation be present and the matter be
thoroughly discussed.
Want Ten Year Bonds.
The bond buyers generally pre-
fer to handle the 10-year rather than
the five year bonds. They prefer the
10 year bonds at Z per cent rather
than the five year bonds at per cent
and now they are looking up the law
to see whether or not it will be pos
sible to extend the time on the sewer
bonds. 1t is likely that the city in
all future work will make the issues
10 rather than five years. This suits
the property owners the better.
Sewer Work Started Soon.
Wetsel & Foster, the contractors,
expect to start in work in a few days
on the big sewer contract The con-
tract has been signed and the bond
put up and the contractors will start
work as soon as they can assemble
men and material.
Let Another Contract.
On June % the contract for Okla
hogan avenue Improvement will also
be let. This will be another good
contract for somebody and will en-
ploy quite a force of men. Next
Tuesday evening will be the night
for protests on the Grandview and
adjacent street improvement dis
tricts.
Progressing on Orondo.
The contractors have about fin
ished laying the cement walk on Or
ondo. The main walks have all
been made and the contractors have
about finished the cross walks. Ora
vel is now being hauled in and grad
ually put into place. The contract
ors expect to have the whole job
finished in a short time.

CAR SHORTAGE IS
THREATENED
J. j. Hill Says Bumper Crop
Will Cause Congestion
of Traffic.

That there will be a car shortage
and a congestion of freight as acute
as any such situation in the past,
and that Spokane and the entire west
lief of James ]. Hill. The chairman
of the board of directors of the
Great Northern in addressing men,
bers of the Chicago club on railroad
affairs few days ago made the
statement that blockade would take
place if large crops were produced
in the west, and it was his belief
that large crops would be grown.
Is Up to People.
Il can't remedy this state of af-
fairs. The people must do it. There
is popular idea that railroad may
be compelled to do just as may be
pleasing to some people. BY unwar-
ranted interference with railroad
operations the people will be hurt.
They will see this eventually" said
Mr. HILL
Continuing, he said that the gov
eminent had proceeded in a some
what underhanded method in caus-
ing an injunction to issue against
the increase in freight rates. 1t is
the belief of the railroad magnate
that the public will come to learn
that in order to be given efficient
service increased rates will be neces-
sary.
