CLEAN UP.

Judge Ferguson and the town Of
fcials were busy this week in notify
ing everybody to haul away or bury
their garbage, and none too soon.
This is a matter which every man,
woman and child in Chitina should
consider seriously. Many have been
in the habit of throwing old cans

cabin, and think nothing of it, as the
snow fall covers it and it is not now
unsightly or unhealthy, but when the
snow will have disappeared, and the
hot sun thaws the ice from the refuse
it means not only an unsightly mess,
but will be the cause of contagion
and sickness. We have no sewer sys-
tenn and the drainage is poor, so if
the garbage is not taken care of we
will regret it next summer. Clean
up and keep clean.

TOM PARKER RETURNSFROM
HEAD WATERS OF THE CHITINA

Tom Parker, who recently made
two months prospecting trip
throughout the mineral belt from the
mouth of the Chitina to the Chiti-
stone, made another trip to the head
waters of the Chitina last week, re-
turning on new years day to Chitina.
He went up the line as far as mile
1T in search of a dog team belong
ing to Jack Lowery. At the "herm-
itage" of P. D. Burke, the Copper
River scout, Mr.. Parker learned that
the dogs were over in the Chekena
river country, and on arriving there
found the man who had them just
ready to return to Kuskulana with
the team. There is little activity
along the right-of-way, Mr.. Parker
states, though Foreman Hedican has
gang of men at mile 1873 distrib-
uting ties along the right-of-way.
1t will not be long, however, until
the construction crews will be strung
along the right-of-way, now that
teams can cross the steel bridge at
149, and work will once more be
humming at the front. Mr.. Parker,

days. awaiting the return of his part

IMPROVED MAIL SERVICE
FOR NOME THIS WINTER

In commenting on the fact that
Seward peninsula is getting better
mail service this winter than ever
before, the Nome Nugget says:
This is the best piece of news re-
ceived in many a day for the people

lier than at any other time in the
history of the camp.
The government has been look
ing toward the cutting down of the
time required to carry the mail over

meeting with some success. The To-
cal road commissioner is now on a
tour of inspection and investigation
to see if there can't be a greater saw

alize that too much time was re-
quired for the transportation of mail

FIRING A SUBMARINE"

The following verse was written
by one of the locomotive firemen on
the Copper River & Northwestern
railway, who, being somewhat mod
est, prefers that we should not pub
lish his name. The verse is dedicat-
ed to the high waters of the Copper
River, which, on July last, at mile
81, flooded the gravel pit and tracks
and even got up into the fire boxes
of the locomotives. Old-timers on
this line of railway recall the high

THE YEAR 1910 CLOSES WITH
PEACE.

Looking over the past year there
were many stirring events; both do
nestle and international. America
and England have again shown the
world that international disputes can
be settled by arbitration.
The long standing controversy of
the Newfoundland fisheries has at
last been settled by The Hague trib-
unal OF all disputes that have been
settled by arbitration this decision
has given more universal satisfac-
ton than any decision before render
ed. Not only has the American press
generally expressed it's satisfaction
but the press of England and Can
ada are unanimous in acclaiming the
decision of the court.
Far different from some of the
United Kingdom press comments ov-
er the Alaska Boundary decision. The
Board of Trade of Glouster, which
was practically the most interested in
the verdict, cabled their congratula-
lions to the American consul at The
Hague, declaring the approval of ev-
erybody in that great fishing centre.
Now, according to the decision of the
court. the United Kingdom was up
held on most of her major points.
The advantages of the decision
claimed by the British are that New
foundland can now regulate the time,
methods and implements in which
fishing may be conducted along her
coast. Also the three-mile limit does
not follow the coast lamentations, but
is calculated generally on the basis
of a straight line drawn from bay
headland to bay headland. The Amer
lean fishermen retains the right to
fish in bays, harbors and creeks on
the large stretches of the Newfound-
land coast and the Magdalen Islands.
Nor are they liable for light house
or harbor dues and they do not have
to enter their vessels at customs
houses.
To Judge from the American
standpoint, the press communication
from Elihu Root, the chief counsel of
the United States at The Hague,
reads as follows:
According to the text of the
award Of The Hague tribunal, in the
Newfoundland fisheries arbitration,
which have just received from the
State Department, it appears that the
terms of the decision upon question
No. /, the principal question in the
case, give to the United States prac-
tically the relief for which she con-
tends.
Question No. related to the
right of Newfoundland to restrict the
American right Of fishing by her
laws, without the consent of the Unit
ed States. The decision holds that
Newfoundland is entitled to pass such
laws, but the laws must be reason
able, equitable, and fair as between
the local and American fishermen,
and that it is not for either of the
parties to the treaty to determine

ditions with which they had to con-
tend, by many laughable instances,
and the railway "wag" has put to
verse one of the memorable happen
ings In the early days of construc-
ton:
You've heard of strange stunts done
on railroads,
Perhaps they were funny, too;
But I'll tell you tale, it's song
of the rail,
Which is strange, though it's per-
fectly true.
I've worked on this bloomin' rail-
road,
I've handled number two
Also ran an Irish buggy;
Things which are hard to do.
But that which struck me strangest
'Mong the strange things I've done
and seen,
Was firing a locomotive,
Which they used for a "submar-
ine."
Maybe you don't believe me, friend,
But lying never pays;
Though if you really doubt my word.
You can go and ask Judge Hayes.
For the Judge was right there all the
time;
Rear admiral was he.
1t was the Judge who made the
Before we put to sea.
The lone spot was the first to sail,
Far out on the storm-swept sea
She took the waves like an ocean
bird;
Oh! glorious sight was she!
Buchanan was chief engineer,
The man with the eagle eye;
He feared not the hidden reefs;
Twas his to do or die.
At last, their cargo loaded,
They started back for home;
The sun shone down upon them,
And gilded the oceans foam.
But alack and alas! for the one-spot,
A hoodooed craft was she;
For the stoker ON watch that fate
full day
Had never before been to sea.
Buchanan opened the throttle wide,
She let out an awful exhaust;
The fireman looked at the stack and
cried: =
"My God, My God! we're lost!'' =
He'd forgotten to open the firebox
door;
The water sucked up the CRATES
And pulled the fire right through the
stack,
And up toward those pearly gates.
They thought they were gone, did
that little crew,
And started to weep and wall,
When Captain Casey Jones cried out:
"Hurrah! Hurrah. salt"
They strained their eyes and gazed
away,
Far over the ocean blue,
And cried with Joy at what they saw,
For it was the engine No. two.
Rear Admiral Hayes stood on the
deck,
First Officer Foley, too;
They gave their orders right and left,
For they knew just what to do.
Well, they rescued the one-spot and
her fear-struck crew;
They landed them safe on the
shore,
And the fireman said he'd be =!
If he'd go out to sea any more.
