The Chitina leader., 1912-10-22

For a time it looked as though the Wiekershamites in the Fourth divi- sion would name a legislative ticket. In that event both the Democratic and Republican followers contem- plated an endorsement of the Social ist ticket. But matters have been adjusted by 'get together" meet ing. At Fairbanks the other night, in the interest of harmony three com mittees, each composed of nine mem bers, representing the Republican, Democratic and Progressive parties, met in the city hall and nominated a full ticket for two senators and four representatives. There was consid- erable jangling and argufying, but after the men were named a motion that they be endorsed by the three parties was unanimously carried. The ticket is known as the ''non-part- isan,' and the nominees are as fol lows:
 For Senator-Henry Roden, Idita- rod; Dan Sutherland, Ruby. For representatives, J. Mullally, Fox; F. B. Collins, Dome; Dan Driscoli, Fairbanks; William Burns, Chatham.

 Dean Minor Roberts of the school of mines at the Washington State University passed through Cordoya early last month on his return from an examination of mining property near Seward. He stated then that he wanted the Daily Alaskan to give publication to the fact that A1askans would have an opportunity this win ter to take advantage of the facilities offered by the University for modern scientific study. And he now wishes us to announce that the laboratories of his department are open to special students from the north.
 There will be no scheduled hours, but those who wish to learn more scientific methods of mining and met allurgy may arrange their hours at the university to suit their business or other affairs. The regular three month course in mining will be given this year, starting on January 8, but Dean Roberts thought it advisable to allow miners and propectors to use the university equipment at irregu- lar hours, either at day or night.
 The available equipment in mining and metallurgy includes machinery, furnaces and apparatus of the latest type as we'll as variety of ores used for testing purposes Twelve hun dred lantern slides, Illustrating the practice of mine mills and smelters, will be used by Dean Roberts and Prof. Joseph Daniels in their lectures in the diffesent courses.
 Trips to mines and smelters, to ex- plain modern methods, are also plan- ned by the mining faculty. The col lege of engineering will cooperate with the school of mines in aiding special students. The work in min- ing and ore dressing will be given by Dean Roberts and Prof. Daniels, while Prof. c. R. Corey will direct the courses in assaying and metal lurgy. There will be no tuition charges. but the usual laboratory deposit will be required to cover SUD- plies used by the student.

 The Alaska Railroad Commission is now on it's way out from Fairbanks, coming oyer the trail. The Conn., were at Donnelly's this morn- ing, which is a distance of 115 miles from Fairbanks and 195 miles from Chitina. There has been snow fly ing for a couple of days, but not enough to cause any annoyance. The expedition hopes to reach Chitina about the 24th. when they will likely take ride over the branch line to Kennecott. In the meantime it is
 expected to have done what little re pairing is necessary on the branch. Reports from the Superintendant's office indicate that the slides will have been cleared away and necessary repairs made to the main line so that trains can get through between Chiti- ma and Cordova about the 26th or 27th. In that event the Commission will have a comfortable ride to Cor dova. Here they will board a pas senger steamer for Juneau, and from there go to Haines.

 The train that arrived last evening at seven o'clock brought the mail from Fairbanks as we'll as about forty passengers. Four of them came through from Fairbanks. The rest are from the Copper river country. A train left Chitina early yesterday morning and went as far as Mile SS. The passengers were transferred over a portion of the railroad that is not yet repaired, and a train again start ed from Mile S7 and had no trouble in making a good run to Cordova. Many of the passengers had walked from Chitina to Mile ST.
 Tomorrow morning at seven o'clock a train will leave Cordova, carrying the mail and such. passengers. with hand baggage, as wish to be. trans ferred at Mile 87. On Saturday morning at four o'clock a through train to Chitina will leave here. It is expected to have the road open through by Friday night. The early start is made so that Chitina may be reached before darkness sets in, as it is necessary to run slowly over cer- tain portions of the road This train will also take out number of cars of freight, containing consignments of fresh vegetables, eggs, butter, pota- toes and general supplies for the peo- pie In addition considerable feed for horses will be transported. It is expected that train will leave Chiti- na early Saturday morning to come through to Corodva that night.

 It was discovered a few days ago that numeber of forged checks were in circulation in Chitina amounting to two or three hundred dollars. They were all traced back to one party who claimed ne had received them in exchange for larger check at Mccarthy some time ago but he could not remeber who had siven him the checks. He claims to know nothing more about the checks but says he feels morally obligated and offers to take back the checks, giving his note in return. and he will then go to work and earn the money and make good the amount
 In the meantime nothing much is being done and aparantly the matter will soon be forgotten. The incl cident indicates that this is a fertile and safe field for a few Wallingford get-rich-quick schemes.
