LATEST MAKE Of CARS
ON bLUEMONT DIVISION
Washington and Old Dominion
to Establish Leesburg
Service Next Sunday.

Officials of the Bluemont division of
the Washington and Old Dominion rail-
way. in announcing the opening of
through electric car service from George
town to Leesburg, Va. next Sunday,
stated that the cars to be placed in COM
mission are the latest approved type of
steel-constructed electric interurban pas
senger cars. Weather permitting, the Of
ficials of the road say. operation of these
big new cars on regular schedules will
be inaugurated next Sunday, October 6.
The road has been electrified as far as
Leesburg, and the work is continuing on
to Bluemont, with expectation, of COM
pletion within a month. Sixteen new
electric cars lie in the car barns in Ross
lyn. with more coming as fast as a
southern manufacturer can complete the
order. Car crews. men trained in the
operation of electric trains, have been
hired.
Test Made of the Curves.
A pilot train tried the road and took
the curves Wednesday night and found
all in order for the inauguration of the
new system. Should it rain hard the
management will delay tins operation of
the first trains. Not that there is any
practical reason to wait. but there is a
desire to start the wheels under the best
conditions to try out the new equipment
and give men unacquainted with the road
the incest day to find out where they are
going. so that the habit will be formed
in the right way.
Five trains each consisting of power
car and trailer as large as the power car.
will be put on for the Sunday schedule
to Leesburg. These will run at 9:33 and
1912 o'clock in the morning and at -,
4:12 and $3.50 in the afternoon from the
Washington terminal, 36th and NJ streets
northwest. Eleven trains daily, except
Sunday, will make Leesburg. and there
will be twenty-five trains between Wash
ington and Herndon.
Cars to Run Slowly.
Although the schedule, as arranged,
will cut down the running time ten or
the route, there will be no attempt at
speed making until the car crews are ac-
customed to their work. and the salts
factory condition of road and rolling
stock is shown. The manage ment believes
that the schedule will he cut to pieces
when they are ready to speed UP and find
out what their swift cars can do.
! This is the first time in history that
single track road has been electrified
, while being operated as a steam road.
Freight will continue to be carried by
steam, and three big "MoguI' engines
have recently been ordered from Balti-
! more, to be delivered November I.

Rockwell's Sight Poor.

An official report embodying all that is
likely ever to be known about the fatal
accident to Lieut. Rockwell and Corp
Scott at College Park. Nd, last Saturday
was submitted to Gen. Weatherspoon. as
sistant chief of staff. yesterday after
noon. The report placed the responsible
ity for the accident. so far as there is any
responsibility. on the defective eyesight
of the deceased. Lieut.. Rockwell was
not markedly deficient in this respect but
he sometimes had short lapses of blurred
vision. The report assumed that sorHe-
thing of this sort occurred when the ma
chine was about to make its landing, and
that Lieut.. Rockwell misjudged the dis
lance from the ground.

When you hear anyone critics ing James Wickc-Sham for not Sc. curing the many reforms that ara needed in Alaska. you put it righ, down that the critic is a member ot the sane party that has always fought every reform that Nr. wick. ersham or anyone else has ever tried to make iu Alaska
 Who says wickcrsham has fail ed' It IS the federal office holders together with ShackleToyd and his followers. Every concern that has exploited and is trying to exploit Alaska Of her fish. coal and other forms Of natural wealth, are say ing that Wickersham has failed.
 We tell you that iS wtckersham never gets bill through congress that VIC want he will prevent any one getting one through that we don't want.
 Had it not been for James Wick ersham. Alaska today would be un- der the government or a perpetual commission appointed by Taft and recruited from the ranks Of broken down politicians who wanted a job.
 Who was it that fought that sp- pOiutive commission proposition and forced it's retireuentr Was iJ Gil- more Was it any Of the mar shals. deputy marshals or the gov ernor? It was James wicke-shau, and you know it
 H Is not so much for what James wickersham has tried to accomplish and is accomplishing, that the Daily NAeShsth lS SaNhNA NAtsA AttAs tNN " is for what he has prevented gang sters from accomplishing. that calls out admiration and cheers. You who are living tn Alaska today can thank God and James wiekersham that you are not being ruled hy double the number og carpet Ssggers that are now bligRting the district by fighting every measure Of home rule favorable to your own interests.

ment to imported rulers, is pitiable indeed.
 When anyone tells you that lame: wickersham can do nothing in con Eress. tell him that it is not Wick ersham that needs changing, but congress.
 IT congress is wrong. would it not be criminal to send Gilmore there to help perpetrate that wrong? It would be simply piling up one wrong upon another to have crea- ture of Shackleford's advising the nations lawmakers against grant ing our demands for self govern ment.
 Not only has Mir. wickersham prevented the enactment of hostile measures. but he has secured the passage through the lower house Of the home rule bill and it now only awaits the action of the senate, whose committee has reported favor ably upon it. He has stuck by AL aska an the time and Alaska will not desert him now.

 4 MERRY CLIP

Willis Boone. who ieft SakgWay few weeks ago for mush over the road to whitehorse. kept di- ary of his trip which he has sent to the Daily Alaskan. It shows Will lis 10 be something of an observer and will be interesting, especially to his young friends here.
 Taking a small pack of neces- sary things started, leaving Skag- way in the morning. going as far as White Pass city where I stopped for about an hour. Then took the Bracket wagon road, as it makes it shorter by two or three miles. This part of the mush I did not notice much as the road winds in and out along the river and keeps one in expectation ot seeing something else. At the steel bridge I took the track again and saw a few ptarmigan-w which were seem
 ngly unafraid
 A little way beyond Frazer [ stopped for the night tn an old log shack, sleeping on a bench. SO it Is not necessary to say woke up Quite early next morning, and after walking pretty briskly for about three hours. I reached Bennett.
 Between Frazer and Bennett the country is more or less wet and swampy.
 After leaving Bennett there is not much Of interest. as the lake is on one side and cliffs on the oth- CT. However, lay down beside the track at about noon and went to sleep. as the sun was very hot. Being awakened from my sleep by a passing train at two o'clock, I started on for Caribou. The seen cry being about the same. stop ped abaut half mile outside of Caribou for the night. Building fire I lay down and went to sleep. However I woke about three o'clock next morning to find that the fire was out and I was lying where the fire ought to be.
 From there on the country is not rough, there being bit of flat country where there was plenty CT grass and trees, which looked more promising There were plenty of gophers and rabbits which bound ed into the woods at my approach.
 I stopped to eat my lunch and the gophers being attracted by the bread soon came quite close, one being bold enough Co come within a few feet, but I moved little and he ran off but soon came back smelling of my pack and thinking 1t was safe. he began eating some bread which had laid out for him. After eating a few minutes. he tum- bled the bread a few feet off, then ran away, but came back and tack led it with more eaEerness. Then another one came up and being the larger took possession Of the bread, eating a few minutes then running away. The smaller one came back and began eating again. so thought that he was a natural hog, but soon discovered that they filled a bag under their jaw, then emptied it when they ran away, com ing back to fin it again.
 But watching gophers was not getting over the road, so I started on and was within about ten miles of whitehorse at sun down. At that distance I could see the smoke and clouds which were a golden hue. at the place where l thought whitehorse ought to be but I did not get there until about one o'clock in the night, as it was farther off than it looked
 It took me just 66 hours to make the mush whihc is less than three days. I am glad to say that it has been pleasure to me and ] was as fresh when I got there as when
