TIME FOR REAL WORK
 IN ALASKA TERRITORY

Congress has neglected Alaska shamefully for many years and this policy of nonaction has seriously re- tarded the development of one of the richest sections of the nation. Congress has been fond of bragging about Alaska and her rich resources but little has been done to develop these resources.
 E. E. Swergal, a practical railroad man connected with the New York Central lines, recently made an eX- laustive study of conditions in Alas ka with a view of acQuaiutiug the people of the United States with the iaults of the governments policy, Mir. Swergal sums up his findings as follows, in an article in the Railroad Age Gazette:
 What is needed as a remedy is the adoption by the government of a definite and business-liks develop ment program, embracing five gen eral items:
 1. Early development Of railroads by private enterprise, assisted and regulated by the government, or wholly undertaken by the govern ment.
 ?. Revision of mining laws, par ticuIarly coauand- laws, to permit of practical and early development.
 9. More liberal appropriations to the army engineers who have charge of highways and telegraph and cable lines. to enable them to effect a more rapid extension of trails, and tor the substantial bridging of streams at dangerous points.
 4. A comprehensive plan for ad- dttional fixed aids to navigation along the coast.
 5. Construction of fortified coal ing bunkers for naval and merchant vessels.
 Tn other words, Nyr. Swsrgal pleads for the government to open the country to development capital and enterprise just as other West ern states were opened half a cen- tury-ago. Most of the important suggestions made by Mr. Swergal are embodied in bills now pending in Congress and which will be talk en up early in the December ses- sion. In view of the importance of Alaska to Tacoma, i5 is suggested that the commercial and other or ganizations of the City take actions which will impress upon the Con- gressmen from the Northwestern states the importance of pressing the Alaskan question before Con- gress until the needed legislation is euacted.-Tacome Tribune, Oct.

NEW COMPANY TO WORK
 TREADGOLD CONCESSION

The London Mail of recent date gives news of the formation and promotion of the North West Cor poration, dealing with extensive placers in the Klondike, of which A. N. c. Treadgold has been the or ganizing spirit, and is now the man. aging director. It also announces Mr. Treadgold's longtime financial associate, M. II. Orr-Ewing, as one of the directors. The properties lie within fifty miles of Dawson, most ly, if not entirely, on the Indian riv- CT slope of the divide, and include Dominion, Sulphur, Indian river, Quartz and other rich tributaries.

 Ths company has been formed to acquire and work as one concern about 75 miles of pay-channels out of the 12O miles which constitute the best known and most productive part of the Klondike gOldfield in the Dominion of Canada.
 These pay-channels were discover ed in 1897, and were extensively worked in the early days (from 189 to 19O3) by hand methods and have already produced nearly G4O,OOO,O0 from the comparatively small propor- tion worked.
 By very primitive methods and without the assistance of excavat- ing machinery the "old-timers" or 'sourdoughs" won e9,OOO,OOO of gold from spots scattered over about one twentieth of the total areas now controlled by the North West Cor pOratiou. How primitive and imper- feet these methods were can best be gathered from the fact that in the parts of the field rewOrked by modern methods, where the "old- timers" recovered about G4OO,OOO Der milc-much of it from ground already worked not only once but twice by these "old-timers'

GEN ALVEREZ AND STAFF
 CAPTURED AND EXECUTED

Mexico City, Oct. 15-Failure of General Truey Aubert to reach the city of Torreon in time to relieve it, a mission on which he set out from Saltillo nearly month ago with 2OO0 men, is explained by the fact that the greater part of his 2OOO men deserted him before he had completed half his journey. He had reached Madeira, 25 miles east of Torreon, when news of the avac- uation of the city reached him. As soon as the vanguard of Tetrsating federal troops came into view, Au- bert's men fled with all their arms and ammunition. General Alverez, who started with 1000 men to re take the city of Durango from the rebels, and whose defeat caused the excavation of Torreon, fell into an am5uscade at Laloma, 30 miles to the southwest of Torreon. Alverez troops broke and fled as soon as the first shot had been fired. AlVerez was captured with his staff, and all are said to have been executed on the spot by the rebels. Out of to- tai garrison of Torreon, of 4,OOO men, only 100 have been accounted for as being at Hipolito.
 The rebels captured AS pieces of artillery in TorreOn.

NIR. F.. ". ACHISON
 RETURNS TO SKAGWAN

E. ". Achison, who for the past five months has been at work on placer ground which he owns on Rose creek, in the Arltu district, re- turned home on Monday nights train.
 He says that the past seasons s work in the Atln country has fully demonstrated the fact that, altho' many oi the creeks have been work ed since 1898, the development of their mineral wealth is yet iu its infancy.
 On O.Douueu creek, about 10 miles from AtIiu, which has been known and prospected for years with but indifferent results, rich pay was struck about a year ago. Since then a great deal of work has been done on it. especially by J. NJ. Ruff uer. who has had a large force of men employed the past summer in development work with very gratify- ing results.
 When lIr. Achisou left Rose creek there was about three inches of snow. but in AtIiu the fall had been light. barely covering the ground.
