 ABOUT THE MAIL
Telegram of the Prospector to Northern City First They
 Knew Sailing Mail.

The following reprint from he Nome Industrial Worker, in the issue of January Sth, shows that up to the time the prospcctor telegraphed them they knew mo- thing of the delay of the Nome mail. Immediately upon receipt of the dispatch from the Pros pectvr the people at Nome wired 0 CurdOva and Fairbanks for con lirmatinn and when they assured themselves that the mail was surely delayed they wired pro- test to Washington:
 ! Is Nome mail being held up at Cordova and Chitina?
 The dispatch published below was received on Monday from Valdez. It is we'll known that ev- cry once in a while the Copper River railroad has a mighty lot of trouble keeping it's line clear. What with washouts and slides during the summer time and snow slides in the winter, the trains are not infrequently delayed. Irhis last fall--or what was faK up in this district--the Cordova railway could not run train for many days. but as the mail was arriv- ing by boat this part of the coun- try experienced no delays. At the same time it has to be noticed that there is considerable rivalry between the two cities of Valdez and Cordova, and the mail ship ments represent no inconsider- able item, especially as travel follows the mail trail Therefore the Industrial Worker, published the below dispatch and wired lCordova for information, trusting implicitly upon the correctness of their reply. No reply was forthcoming yesterday in spite of the fact that the wire for infor- nation was dispatched early yes terday morning.
 MT. McManus, the superintend- ent of the mail service in the dis trict of Alaska declares that he has no official intimation of such a delay and believes that were ther" any such he would receive il. In any event if there is a congestion such as is reported from Valdez it behOves Nome peo- pie who do not want their mail delayed to get busy, for it is un- occasionally quite true as as- serted by the 'Prospector' that ten years mail via Valdez neve" over eleven days to Fairbanks ii: worst storms" The change wa, not an improvement that was ve ry noticeable anyway, and it :S d fact that more delays have oc.. cured when the mail was routed via Chitina than when it care via the Valdez trail.
 1 Valdez, Alaska, Jan. 6, 'l3.--In- dustrial Worker, Nome. Alaska: Six weeks Nome mail accumulat- ed at Cordova; hopeless blockade on Copper River railroad. Heavy gales on coast Both .rotaries stalled and hauling fuel oil by hand sleds. CordOra and Chitina merchants protesting postal de- pertinent against interior mail being routed via Valdez. Valdez chamber commerce backing Me 1ntosh, stage line thousand dollars month keep trail open all winter. Receiver Moves, Fairbanks bank, left here Saturday now at Ton sina. If you, want any mail this winter start kick. Nome out going mail stacked at Chitina, in- looming at Cordova. Ten years mail via Valdez never over eleven days to Fairbanks in worst storms.
