GOVERNOR CLARK G|VEsEXPLANAT|0N
Says Dike Money Is in Regular Army Appropriation and Mis-
 lead Interior Department

Juneau, March i.---t;ov. Wal
 dr F.. Clark gave out the follow
 ing statement with reference to he Valdez dike bill this mornings: \ copy of the act making ap-
 propriatio ions for the support of
 the army in the next fiscal year, received at the governOr'S office this morning, shows that an ap- propriation of S155,0O has been made for 'cunStruction and main- ienancr of military and post roads, bridges and trails in Alas
 ka. It is provided that not to
 exceed S55, ,00O of this amount may be used by he board of road
 commissioners for the protection of the signal corps buildings and terminal grounds of the Alaska {, military cable and telegraph SyS-
 lem. It is the intention to use this money for the project com monly known as the Valdez dlke, 1 a work which is intended to pro /! tect the town from neighboring glacial streams. The fact that
 neither the town of Valdez nor the dike project is specifically men toned in the appropriation evi-
 dently misled the Interior depart 1 ment several days ago when tel egraphing 1O the governor that
 II" appropriation for the Valdez 1 dike had been made. The $55, ,OOO
 appropriation was first proposed
 last year in a separate bill which
 went over in the Senate on the
 objection of Senator Overman.
 Later on Senator Overman made
 inquiry of Governor Clark, who
 was then in Washington, as to
 the merits of the project, and up-
 on the governors favorable ex-
 planatiOn of the matter from the
 War department, Senator Over tman withdrew his objection and the appropriation was made in
 the Senate as a part of the river
 and harbOr bill. The item was
 traded out in the conference
 committee. Colonel Richardson
 renewed the effort to have the Valdez dike project favorabIy 1 passed upon. and it seems has
 succeeded this year by having the item placed in the army bilI."

PoNDERous PERsoNAGES.
Robert Bruce.
{ Hv George Fitch.

ApN NiC'i St T ItCh.i
 Rober Bruce, who was about as
 much Scotchman as has ever been gotten together under one kilt and tartan, was born in l21i and is
 still very well remembered on both sides of the border line.
 Bruce was a huge man with
 massive purple and red legs and
 was a very handy man in battle,
 being considerably more fatal than smallpox. In his time Scot
 land was doing a precarious bus mess as an independent kingdom and when Bruce, who had life job as Earl of Carrick, was ask
 ed to swear fealty to the English king, Edward l, it ground his proud spirit until he could not en-
 joy his oatmeal. He stood il for
 ten ydars, after which he went
 back to Scotland. rallied his men
 around him and asked for the 1 Scottish crown which had been kept locked in a safety deposit vault for years. because no one dared to wear it. Placing the crown on his head. Bruce waded into the English. and an enjoy- able time was had after the GUS ! tom of those days.
 Twice Bruce was defeated and chased over the hills with great vignr. The last tune he etircd to an island for a year to get his breath and sew up the arrow holes in his kilt. In the spring of 1907 he came out again. assembled ten thousand Sc0tchmrn behind him with one t"nt of the pibroch and took he lid off of Scotland. The still tell in Scotland how Bruce Strnllrd through the Eng fish armies. moving down men as if they were thistleS and occa- sionally biting 9clted earl in two: but doubtless these tales are exaggerated. At any rate. Bruce freed Scotland and when the Eng fish army under young Eddie the Second met him at BannOckburn
 he beat it so badly that detectives
 had tO be sent out to find d.
 There were other bickerings af- forward. but always with very dis cOuraGing results to the English. and in the end Bruce hung up his
 sword, worked the denis out of his. crow and went to reigning peacefully as Robert l. King of Scotland.
 It was achieved a great triumph in those days for a king to die peacefully in bed. Bruce accom- plished this by dying hastily and not pushing his luck. He passed away in 1929. one year after final peace was declared, and when the news reached England stocks went up 10 points.
 Scotland had many kings after Bruce but none of them was very successful and none of them sass ed England and got away with it as Bruce did. He was the George Washington of his country, but neglected 10 pro vide it. with a Benjamin Franklin and an Alexander Hamilton.
