Information comes from Washing
ton that there Is a growing sentiment
among many Congressman favorable
to the construction of but one rail-
road in Alaska to start with. If this
policy should be adopted it would
likely result in the building from
Chitina to Fairbanks and from Mile
80 on the Copper River & Northwest
ern railroad to the Boring river coal
fields.
Mr.. Donald A. Mckenzie, who
spends much of his time in Washing
ton in the interest of Alaska legisla
ton, is the principal champion for
the Cordova route. recommended by
the commission and by President
Taft, and Mr.. John e. Ballaine, own
er of the Seward town site, is ex-
erting every effort to swing senti-
ment back to the Seward route.
There are others who are taking
sides with regard to the matter of a
route for the through railroad, and
as result of this growing inclina-
ton there is probability that what
ever Congress is asked to authorize
as to construction of government rail-
roads in Alaska, it also will be asked
merely to make the necessary finan-
cial arrangements for the road.

Delegate Wickersham, who is now
on his return to Washington, after
having spent few days at Juneau,
has other hobbies besides politics.
One of the principle ones is the his
tory of the land of his adoption. He
is proud of Alaska's record, and in
order that others may have better
knowledge of the country he is going
to issue a history of the territory one
of these days that will contain every
bit Of information on development
and growth from the time the first
white man arrived here. He has
been gathering the facts for many
years, and since going to Washing
ton, as delegate, he has had two
other men helping him. 1t will still
be some years before his history is
issued, but when it does appear he
says it will be complete. Aside from
the several Russian books on the SUBJ
ject,, which he has had translated he
has copy of every report on Alaska
and her indsutries issued by the
government, as we'll as a list of the
names of every man that ever held

HAWAN MEMBERS
HAVE IMPORTANT
BILLS

The Hawaiian house delegates held
caucus in chambers at hoon today,
to discuss a number of measures COM
ing in from the Big Island. 1t is
said that several of the most i'm
portant subjects on which the people
of Hawaii desire legislation have not
yet been introduced, and these were
to be discussed
One of these is a proposed bill to
raise the school tax from 81 to 81, in
an effort to obtain reduction in the
property assessment. now S1.60 .'on
$780, 1t is said this is aimed at the
japanese, who invariably possess
large families and nave majority OF
the school children in the territory,
yet who pay no tax in keeping with
the expense they occasion. This meas
ure however, will hit the Hawaiians
pretty hard, and some opposition may
be expected from them.

Oahu is destined to stand alone in
the fight on the e-apportionment bill,
now pending in house and senate, If
the indications that are now ripping
the surface count for anything. Ac-
cording to prominent member of the
upper house this afternoon a hui Of
most of the solons from Hawaii. all
from Maui and from Kanai, has al
ready been formed, or in process Of
formation, to deal sturdy buffets upon
the face of the measure providing for
the re-apportionment Of the districts.
Under the measure. now pending,
The Island of Maui would suffer most.
with the loss Of senator and three
representatives, Kauai who comes
bleeding to the fore, minus one sem
ator and two representatives, and al
though Hawaii would not be hurt SER
iously, the majority of the soions from
he Big Island are prepared to go to
the front for their brothers.
The contention of the anti-reappor-
tionment men is that the current legis-
lature is not called upon by the law to
perform the duty laid upon the snouf-
ders of the solons at the last session,
end that if they failed to live up 10
their obligations there is no reason
why the present legislature should
suffer for their shortcomings. The
fight promises to be bitter.

by storm several weeks ago. Sur
veys made later showed that 1T could
not be rebuilt for less than 5000 to
$4,000, and a bill. to appropriate the
last mentioned sum for that purpose
already has been introduced in the
house.
