PROSPECTS ARE
 EXCEPTIONALLY COOL

President Wilson has given assur- ances to Senators Jones and Cham berlain that he will lend his support to the. bill which bears the names or these two Senators, for railroad con struction in Alaska, and will urge his party leaders to the passage of this bill at the pending session. There is one proviso which the president makes: his consent is conditioned that the consideration of this particular measure shall not interfere with or endanger the administrations legisla- tive program of tariff revision and cur rency reform.
 There is not the slightest reason why the consideration of this Alaska measure should interfere in any de. gree with either of those measures. Since the House passed the tariff bill it had nothing of national importance before it. and it will probably be quite a while before the currency bill is re- ported out of committee and is be- fore the House for action. The House could act now on the Alaska railroad bill if it were before it and the House leaders concluded to give the measure the right.of-way,
 The Senate has had time enough to pass a considerable number of minor bills while the tariff bill has been un' der consideration in the House It will have plenty of time to take up the Alaska railroad matter, with the pro- viso, of course, that the Democratic leaders of the Senate are ready to do so. The support of the administra' tion may have the effect of overcom' ing the inertia-the reluctance to do anything at all-which Congress has always exhibited toward legislation asked for Alaska.
 The prospects seem exceptionally good for the passage of this bill Practically every one who has been heard on the subject agrees that the bill is necessary and proper. No voice has been raised in opposition to it. Perhaps Alaska is to get some meas ure of justice speedily.-Seattle Post Intelligencer.

PATENTS ARE ISSUED
 TO FAIRBANKS CLAIMS

FAIRBANKS, May 19-The first pat ents to mineral land in the Fairbanks district have been received here by the receiver of the United States land of fee. The first patent issued was that to side claim No 3 below discovery, left limit, Ester creek, for which appll' cation was made by l.. N. lesson. The patent was granted on April IA, 1915.
 The other patent was to Iver John son. for the Becker fraction between n and 12 below discovery, Cleary creek and 12 below discovery on the same creek. The patent was granted on April 23, 1913.
 Both documents are interesting, as they indicate that the fears of many with reference to the government at titude toward mineral claimants in Alaska were groundless entirely. Be cause so much delay has been occas' toned in the granting of applications for patents on claims in the Fairbanks district, some were of the opinion that it would be impossible for final pat ents to be secured.
 From the local land office it is learned that many delays were occas' toned because of imperfect title to the claims, due to neglect on the part of claim.owners to have recorded all doc uments touching upon the ownership of the ground for which patents are sought.

DICKSON TALKS OF
 TOURIST HOTEL PLANS


 Believing that interior Alaska will be developed into one of the greatest tourist resorts of the United States, 10. l.. Dickeson, managing director of Close Brothers, the firm of Chicago and London capitalists which owns the White Pass & Yukon Railroad and other transportation concerns in the North, has begun the construction of q series of summer hotels. The first one of these, at Lake Atlin, is now fin ished. Each hostelry will be built at q cost of $SO,OOO, one or more being constructed each year until te nhave been completed.
 Outlining his plans to the Seattle Times, Mir. Dickeson said: "The peo- ple of the United States last year spent more than $3OO,OOO,OOO in trips to Flu rope. I am satisfied from my own ob- servation that European scenery is not to be compared with that of Alaska. The railroads of the United States are making a joint effort to swing this Flu ropean travel to the Western portion of the United States. Lack of good ac- commodations has been one of the drawbacks to the Alaska trip hereto fore. but this will be remedied as soon as we get the hotels built in the interior valleys. All of the material for these structures is purchased in Seattle and shipped North.

DOUGLAS PUTS BAN
 ON DYNAMITE CRACKERS

At a meeting of the town council Monday night it was decided to warn all dealers in Fourth of July fire works not to sell dynamite crackers. Because of the fact that they are ter rible dangers to life and limb their sale will not be permitted. Advocates of safe and sane" celebration would eliminate the cracker entirely, but such course detracts much of the impressiveness of the day, for Amer jeans are, down at the bottom of their hearts, shooting, fighting race, and love above all things, the smell of gun powder.-Douglas News.
