should have greater degree of autonomy the same
as the ones mentioned by the President why it should
have less, or none at ALL Logically, Mr. Joslin is
doubleday tops he only advocates less because he
does not hope for more.
To quote again: "Prevous to the discovery of the
Kondke which occurred in 1885, for some twelve years
or more there were gathered together the interior
along the Yukon probably hundred to five hundred
American miners, some Canadians, Englishmen.
They were cosmopolte mass, and there was no kind

and administered justice, and did do it in harsh
manner either Those pioneers lived there ten years
and more before there was any governmental authority
and showed that the people have the power govern
themselves without authority from anybody; it proved
the theory which this government organized that
government comes from the people upward and not
from authority downward" Again. II think they [the

About wood: 1T seems that the price of wood in
Alaska contained in forest is fixed by the for

timber not in forest is administered by the
interior department. They fixed the same price as that

that the total payment amounted to about S25 900 last

Mr.. Josin does not accede to the proposition that
the resources of Alaska do not belong exclusively to
Alaska but that the whole government has an interest
in the preservation and proper development of the
resources.

Mystery Solved by Skeletons

Telluride, COL, April 1.-Two skel-
etons found in the mountains have
been partially identified as the remains
of two boys, Frank Jane, II years old,
and Ernest Donaldson, 9, who mysteri-
ously dropped out of sight June l, 1908,
and whose disappearance has since re-
NAMED mystery. The discovery was
made by two miners from the Snug
gler-Union, who were prospecting in
the hills north of Pandora. When last
seen the boys were on the road to
Tomboy mine, where the Donaldson
boys father was employed. 1t is pre-
sumed they had endeavored to climb to
an eagles nest, about which there had
been considerable talk, and had slipped
down a precipice to their death. The
parents of the boys were miners and
have moved away, their present where

A rumor in circulation here that the
Yukon broke at Dawson last Tuesday
was false. The rise in the Yukon at
Tanana is small, although there has
been some water on the ice near the

flooded everywhere.
There is nothing to indicate that the
Yukon will break inside of twelve days.
