George Shiras, IT,, naturalist and originator of the sport of hunting wild game with the camera, returned on the Northwestern from successful expe' dition to the Kenai peninsula, says the P.-I. Mr. Shiras brought back some wonderful pictures of the giant moose of Alaska and of the white mountain sheep, the Ovis Dalli, found only in the Northlaud. The moose pictures com- pete a set which MT. Shiras began years ago and which took him to the woods of Maine, New Brunswick, Que bee, Ontario, Manitoba, Minnesota, Idaho and Wyoming. More than twenty years ago Mir. Shiras gave up bis rifle for the camera. Now he looks upon bis eby friends of the wilderness and of the the stream as subjects for pictures and not for the slaughter of the trophy hunter
 There are some things America can learn from other countries. One of those things is the policing of frontier territory like Alaska. A miner disap- pears, and his friends suspect foul play. but the police authorities are powerless to act without stringing along through reels of red tape. They may, of course. act promptly on their own initiative, but there is no assurance that their conduct will be approved, or that the expenses they incur will be recognized by the government Personal trouble and expense might be their solelreward. If Alaska were given special marshals with rowing commissions, including wide discretionary powers, something on the order of the Northwest mounted police, the ends of justice would be ac- complished more swiftly and with greater degree of certainty.-Ex.
 As the result of a lot of natives get ting mixed up with an overdose of tire~ water, the coroner at Haines held an inquest over one of them this after noon, says the Skagway Alaskan of last Wednesday. Yesterday afternoon three Indians got hold of some whisky and immediately started in to make load h. dians" of them selves. Deputy U. $. Marshal G. C.. DeHaven was called upon to stop a rough house and arrested two of the natives early in the evening. Being again notified that there was trouble in Indian town, Marshal De- Haven started out about o'clock this morning to get the last of the trio, and found him in shack on Main street just beyond the corner of Vogel avenue. He started to take the man into cus- tody, and fight ensued. The native was stripped to the waist, and was fights ing drunk, and aft CT knocking the mar- shal down said that he intended to kill him, and it was then that Marshal De- Haven thought it time to get busy, and taking out his gun, shot the Indian through the heart. The marshal inns mediately reported what he had done to U. s. Commissioner Odell, and today an inquest was held and the jury re- turned a verdict that Marshal DeHaven shot and killed the Indian in self des fense. Since getting the above in type, it was learned that the Indians name was Newton tor Knute) Nelson. and that he was a Killisnoo Indian. He has lived in and around Ketchikan for some time, and worked for the Porcu' pine Gold Mining company during the past summer. His relatives are at pres, l ent over at Dyea,

 Sam Lichtenstadter president of the Mt. Andrew Iron & Copper Mining Co.,, one of the best known mining men of this region, died in his room at the Stedmau, Tuesday night. He had made the remark that he was tired aud would lie down, and went upstairs and was not seen again until employees of the hotel entered the room the next morn ing and found him dead. The coroner's jury decided that death had resulted from heart failure. The body will be shipped down on the Jefferson, tomor- row.-Ketchikan Miner.
 Persistent growth and popularity have marked the Fairbanks igloo of the Pioneers since it's organization, the meetings even in summer being more largely attended than those of any other organization. Organized Nov.22, 1909, with a charter list of297 members, the mem bership has increased by leaps end bounds until it has nearly reached the five hundred mark, 46l members being the present enrolment of the igloo. The objects of the organization have been to unite the pioneers of Alaska, aiming by the permanent or ganization to preserve the names of Alaska's pioneers upon it's rolls; to col lect and preserve the incidents of Alas ka's literature and history, and to pro- mote the best interests of the North.
 Of all the stories of the lost mines there is none more fascinating than that of "Lost Henry mine," near the source of the Pelly and Liard rivers. As the story goes, forty years ago or little longer, Mike Henry came out of that country by way of the Stickine river, bringing about S130O0 in gold dust. The gold was sold at the San Francisco mint. Of that there is authentic rec ord. Henry said that he was heading for Sears creek on the Liard when he discovered a creek coming from a glacier and that with the apparatus he could build with an ax he cleaned up the gold. Running short of grub he couldn't get to Sears creek and had to rush for the coast. He made maps of the locality, but although many expe- ditions have tried to locate the creek, their efforts always failed. The coun- try was very different from the maps. Henry owns ranch in California, and among his employees up to five years ago was young man, Ed Wilson, who after hearing the old mans tale and procuring map from Henry, decided to make a try for the treasure. For five years Wilson has been cruising the up- per Pelly country without success until this spring some Indians came to Joe Cote's trading post at Ross river and reported just finding such a creek, heading in glacier exactly as Henry described it. On this creek they say they found an old rocker and length or two of very crude sluice boxes. The map drawn by Henry was shown to the Indians. They studied it carefully, when one said: "Good map. Who make um2 He good saVy."

 From adVices received from Dawson, A. N. c. Treadgold is making prepara' tions for tremendous lot of new work the coming season. It is practically assured that he will install two and possibly three new dredges in the Klon- dike district next year, and will un- doubtedly carry on the work which his company has started on larger scale than ever before. This means an as- surance of good times for that district and the employment of much labor. With the additional backing of S8,OOO,- 900 wbioh it is believed Mir. Treadgold secured while abroad last winter, this should make his company one of the strongest operators in the whole Yukon district.

NO EXCUSE NOW.

Fifty years ago there was some ex-
cuse for bad roads, for our country
was poor, but now it is rich and there
is no excuse? A good road is always
to be desired and is source of COM
fort and convenience to every travel
or. Good roads attract population, as
well as good schools and churches.
Good roads improve the value Of prop
erty, so that it is said farm lying
five miles from market connected by
a bad road, is Of less value than an
equally good farm connected by
good road.-Fort Mill Times.
We heard the other day Of gen
sIenan who said he didn't want his
property to increase in value. That
it was worth too much noW-tax pay
ing time. But the other side of the
question should appeal to every cit
izen. Good roads are desirable be-
cause of their comfort and conyen-
ience.

THE PARK SECURE.

The Herald and News is very much
gratifed to hear that a number of our
citizens are interested in the park,
and that the comraittee that went out
last week failed to see them. Of
course, these citizens are not in the
least hurt or did not feel sighted, be-
cause they are interested, and it is a
good omen for the success of the en-
terprise. We felt all along that the
people of Newberry were not going to
permit this opportunity to pass; and
we expected a certain amount of
knocking and some opposition because
we have become accustomed to that
sort of thing, it matters not how meri-
torious the enterprise may be.
We were a little disappointed that
some of those who we're able to help
a worthy cause did not do SO more
generously, and there were some
names that We expected OF the list
that are not there, but the movement
of the park is assured. That is to say
that the park is assured. We hope to
get organized in the next two weeks,
and to begin the work OF laying out
and beautifying the grounds.
The lists are still open and We need
and must have more names. Those
who have not been given the oppor-
tunity to contribute may do so, and
we expect a good many Of them 10
do so.
We are satisfied that once the move
nent takes definite shape that it will
be no trouble to extend the park on
either side Of SCOTS creek from Co..
1ncp street down TO Nance street, and
this IS what the movement cOnteH-
plates, and We never intended to stop

Governor Hooper, of Tennessee, in
an address before the Tennessee
Press association recently said: II
would be willing to give up all my
political ambitions, which I confess
to you are not great, if I could get
every paper in this State behind me
for two years in work for the better
ment and advancement of the State of
Tennessee" This is a patriotic ut
terance and has the ring of a patriotic
citizen, and impresses one as coming
from an honest and sincere heart.
There is no doubt that Governor
Hooper, if he could secure the hearty
cooperation and endorsement Of the
united press of his State, could ac-
complish great things for the State of
Tennessee. The same thing could be
done in other States if the newspapers
of the several States would uphold
the officials in all efforts that we're
put forth for the uplift and the better
ment of the citizenship. It so often
happens that newspaper men, who are
but human, can not rise above their
human mature and their personal feel
ings and prejudices, and are willing
and ready to magnify any error of
judgment, in their opinion, Of a pub
lie official to do him hurt, forgetting
for the time that they are also doing
injury to the State and to the people.
If We would always look for the
good, there would be some found ev-
erywhere, and by encouragin it, we
could help the body polite.

Several days last week were suita-
Bile for the use of the split log drag.
Some of the farmers have been using
the drag to great advantage, and
where it was used at the right time,
the roads are in good condition. If
it were more generally used, all Of
our roads would be in better cOndi
ton, and it would take very little time
to run it over all the roads if all far
mers would cooperate.

erty and will cut it up into lots
and sell it at auction at an early
date for one-ifth casn, balance
one and two years, at only Z

fine chance to buy a location Of

This will be an excellent loca-
ton for boarding houses, print
ing Offices, laundres, harness
shops, tailor shops, pressing
