 TO BE WITNESS
Ed Cheek Goes to Texas to Testify in a Case Involving Interested
 Parties From Several States,

Cotton Belt Detective Ed Cheek, Of
 this city, left yesterday afternoon for Cameron, Texas, about 40 miles from Wacp, where he will testify in one of the most interesting cases that has been unearthed for some time. The case will be that of H. and l.. Zweig dry goods merchants of Cameron, who are charged with the wholesale re- ceiving of stolen pfloperty.

Letter to. Mayer Jordan. Charges Ice Companies
 With Discrimination :.
CLINE WRITES HIM
Cannot Purchase Ice From Wa90ns- Communication Is Read to /
 the City Council *.
., -fv.r---. k E

The following letter from Rev. c. c. Cline to Mayor Jordan was read at a meeting of the City Council last "4ens' - .@'@' S!A.
 Dear Sir:-At the last meeting of the Ministerial Association 1t was made my duty to visit the council of the city and learn if possible whether it was in the power of the council to prevent the only ice company in the city from discriminating against the poor in the sale of ice, swig
 Before the merger or consolidation of the two ice companies was made. the poor could buy a nickeps worth of ice from any wagon passing their doors. Since this monoply was creat- ed the order has gone forth prohibit ing. the drivers selling a nickeis worth. A nickel's worth Is all that an average caoler will hold. To supply this necessity in hot weather the poor have now co go to the ice manufactury to gee their nickel's worth of ice, rotwitn- standing the ice wagon passes ID front or near the house every day. <. "It appears to us that the power to grant franchise or "a street peddlers license isI power enough to prevent it's abuse or to say whether or not the
 poorer class shall be discriminated against.
 .'Knowing that you would soon enter the higher office 1 delayed placing the matter before the council. believ-
 Ing confidently that you would take as mayor whatever steps that would .. be needed to correct this abuse, without my putting in a personal ap- pearance before that honorable body. Wishing you a most successful ad- ministration of the city's affairs, I am as ever, | Yours most respectfully, c. c. CLINE. Alderman Chesnutt favored com- polling the ice company to sell cents worth of fee from their wagons. No action was taken by the city coun- cil in this matter.

Coal Land Withdrawal Has Brought About Unbearable
 Conditions Among Them
MEANS :. BANKRUPTCY
Aid of American Newspapers is Ask ed-What Caused Mass Meet
 ing at Cordova.
International News Special

International News SpecAl
 Cordova, Alaska, May 1.-At a mass meeting in this city on hast Saturday Of workmen and pioneers, resolutions were adopted and committee named for the purpose of asking the co-op- eration of several United States news- papers in the struggle of the people of Alaska, to secure patents for bona fide coal land claimants.
 The action of the Washington ati- thorities in withdrawing all opal land from entry last fall has half brought about unbearable conditions. The opening of coal mines honestly creat- ed, means steady employment of hun- dreds of workingmen. Further de- lay means ruin and bankruptcy to many workmen to seek other fields.
 At Katala, a few miles from the famous coal field district, residents are forced to pay $22 per ton for for eign coal. % -21s's
 To add to the general bad condi- tions on account of the government saying 'ihands off the eoal fields" :" it has blanket reserve on coast tim ber and even charges tax on wood and timber necessary for commercial purpose.
 Mass meetings in denunciation Of the present policy of the government regarding the bottling up of the coal lands have also been held at Skag- away and other towns in the terri tory. At all of these meetings, righte- ous indignations was vehement1y ex- pressed against further importations of the high duty on Canadian coal.
 Tn short, the people of Alaska, are not permitted, to mine their own coal from the lands lying at their own doorways for their own use, even for heat and household purposes, much less the general development of the country.
 what caused Protest.
 Seattle, Wash, May 1.-The Cordo- va mass meeting appears to have been precipitated as the result of the re- ceipt of news from the national capi- tai to the effect that executive action held every tom of Alaska coal sealed up until after a decision by the su- preme court of the United States in the cases of Charles, F. Munday ct al, taken upon appeals from the decision District Federal Judge c. H. Hanford, in Seattle.
 Some nine hundred coal locations have been made in the Katala and Behring river coal districts and as many patents applied for. But the government needing the cry that went up as a result of the Glavis charges, to the effect that the Alaska coal lands being goblled up through the medium of bogus entrymen end other fraudulent efforts by the so called Morgan-Guggenheim syndicate has de. clined to issue any patents whatever until the courts shall have passed up- on the legality of the entries especial ly in the Cunningham and English group cases.
