BUSINESS CHANGES HANDS.

A. R. Bowdre & Co.,, who have been in the general merchandise at Plum erville since 1888, have sold out their business to A. B. and c. G. Payne and the business will now be conducted under the firm name of Payne Bros. Messrs. Payne have been associated with the firm for some time, and A. B. has been especially valuable to them, having been in their employ for the past thirteen years.

He favored liberal pensions for Confederate sol diers and deplored the failure of the legislature to make appropriations for the state guard, the Arkansas state fair and the Panama exposition. In concluding his speech Mr. Brun- didge declared war on the machine politician.
 ''If I am elected governor of Arkan- sas," he said, those celebrated ma |chinists are going out of business. Machine politics is going to stop in Arkansas if I am your governor. And, l want to serve notice on them to that effect. The very day that I hang up my hat as governor of your great state, any honest citizen is welcome to come in and see and confer with me about the good of himself or the good of the state or his country, but the machine fellow must stay out. He can't come in. l need no advice from him, nor do l want encouragement from him."

 ANS DEFEAT.

The Conway town team again de- feated the Hendrix College Bulldogs on Hendrix field yesterday afternoon by the score of 12 to 10.

WHO'RE SELL GOAL
 NEXT SUMMER
Will be First Mine in Alaska on Shipping 1asis--once Fined
 For Selling Coal.

Seattle, Jan. i6.--Captain Whorf, who was granted a patent to his coal claims at Port Gra- ham, has announced his inten- ton of opening the claims next summer on a large scale and shipping coal to Seattle and all so supplying the Alaska coast towns.
 This is the first group of coal claims in Alaska to which patent has been issued under the policy of the conservation fadiSts of the East. Whorf was at one time fined for selling coal to the Unit ed States revenue cutter, which was without fuel, tu take her to Seattle. The fine of $500 was lat or remitted, but it cost Whorf inc amount of the fine io pay his expense in having it reloaded.
 The fight for patent has eN- tended over a period of ten years and Whnrf has expended a small fortune in obtaining patent.

Portland, Ore, Jan. l6.--Word was received from Washington today that President Taft had granted an absolute pardon to H. H. Hendricks of Fossil, Ore, jail- ed with Franklin Pierce Mays, Willard N. Jones and others in connection with the land fraud cases prosecuted in this state by Francis J. IIeney and William J. Burns seven years ago.
 Details of the pardon are lack ing, but il is supposed it was granted on the same grounds up- on which the pardons of other members of the alleged fraud ring were granted by the prcsi- dent. Practically every citizen of Fossil signed Inc petition to Pres ident Taft requesting Hendricks pardon.

cientlv extensive scale to make it pay.
 There can be no doubt but that the company will take over the bench claims when the payment becomes due, as this ground is known to be equally as rich as the creek claims and is necessary to the proper and economical work ing of the ground already obtain ed.
 Among those who have bnnp- fited by the payment received on the last steamer are R. p. Fereu- son and Sam Blum, the latter having obtained the interests of Frank Herman. It is understood that the new owners are to issue bonds through the International Trust company with which to put the necessary machinery on the ground and to open up the prop erty preparatory ot actual mining operations. TO accomplish this on a sufficient scale several hun- dred thousand dollars will have to be expended before any returns can be expected.
 Without doubt this is the larg- est placer deal ever brought to a successful conclusion in South western Alaska and will mean much for the development of the country in the ncighborhood of Valdez creek.

A reply granting the requested permis- sion was received at noon yes- terday and Deputy Marshal Co., shaw was at once started for Seward, at which point he will at once employ one of the fastest dog teams in order to reach Tyo- nok at the earliest practical mo- mcnt.

Former Game Warden on Way to States for Heaith, Dies
 While En Route.

Chris Shea, former game war den of the kenai precinct, died on the Northwestern between Ketch- ikan and Juneau, while en route lo the states for his health.
 Shea had been failing for some time and he and his mother left on the Northwestern for the states. It was his intention to enter a sanitarium. but lie had waited too long.
 The body of the deceased was removed at kctcbikan and pre- pared fer shipment and then re- shipped on the Humboldt to Seat tie for intrrment.
 Shea was game warden for four years, having received his ap- pointmrnt from Governor t1uggatt and he held over under Governor Clark until last summer, when he vas removed by Clark for sup porting Gilmore, to whom Clark was opposed. George Cantwell was recently appointed in Shea's place.

On the i1th of this month Mar shal Sullivan was in receipt of a letter from Deputy Marshal Dyer at ,Knik, conveying the news of trouble having occurred at Tyo- nok between the government teachers there and the natives.
 The letter stated that MT. and Mrs. Cooper, who had been in charge of the school at that ponit for the past three years, had just arrived at Knik from Toyonok in a sled drawn by three dogs, hay ing been eight days en route to make the eighty miles between the two points.
 It appears that the natives have been short of food and had de- mandcd of Mr. and Mrs. Cooper that they divide their supply with them and that if they did not do so within a given time there would hr trouble. A short time before they left Mr. and Mrs. Cooper had every reason to believe they had been poisoned. as they were sud- denly taken very ill and remain ed so for twenty-fOur hours, one of their dogs dying within that time. Believing that their lives w,rc in danger they started for Knik, from which place they noti- fled the Bureau of Education in Washington. Upon receipt of this

Predicts That the Hauling iof Express Matter Will be Done;
 by Government Alone.

Just before the inauguration of the parcels post Postmaster Gen eral Hitchcock said that the par cels post would wipe out the ex- press companies in America. He said:
 "From tn, limited study 1 have been able to give the parcels post rat,s am convinced they are higher than they need to be, and in time We will reduce the rates materially. My view is that ul- timatcly Inc government should take over the express business of the country. The greatest benefit will be to the 2O,O0O, 1000 people who live where nn express con- pany operates, but who can be served by the parcels post. l am convinced that the parcels post will greatly reduce the cost of living"

The George w. Sais Syndicate of Boston have made payment of Si47, ,O0O on Valdez creek prop erty bonded some time ago. The property includes fourteen claims mostly held by Valdez interests, the money having arrived from Seattle on the Mariposa. The same company also have an op- ton on twenty bench claims off the same creek, SiO,000 on each claim being due on the first of January, 1914.
 X short time ago the purchas- CTS filed for record in the office of the United States commission or here a trust mortgage issued 10 the International Trust Com- pany of Boston, presumably to secure bonds to be issued by the purchasers. It is the intention of the Sais people to place ma- chinery on Valdez creek to work the ground on large scale.
 Competent experts report that the immense deposits of gravel on Valdez creek will average fifty cents cubic yard, which makes it one of the largest hydraulic propositions in Alaska. The ground on the creek has been held for a number of years, l,ii was worked only in a desulotry way. owing to the lack of means to work the ground on a suffi-

COrdOva, Jan. 7.--ThiS morn ling the small rotary, three en- zines and a train left the Copper iRiver & Northwestern railway sta- tion for out the line to clear the track of snow between Cordova and Tiekcl. All of the old men vent to work and If of them con- stitutcd the three crews ill charge. There was also a machinist, boil fer makers and several laborerS from the machine shop, who went along in case any accident occur re-! 60 the rotary or engines. A large quantity of coal and oil was taken along for fuel, as we'll as a supply of grub for the men. There is every reason to believe that this train will get through to Tiekel and as soon as the track is cleared between here and there traffic can be resumed. Unless something unforeseen occurs this will not take more than two or three days.
 The encouraging change in To- cal conditions has caused much rejoicing among COrdOvanS and he outlook is now very bright for an early resumption of the old schedule of three trains week. This good news will not be hailed with much delight by the people of Valdez. if the press dispatches they are sending out from there is any criterion of inc sentiment of it's residents.
 The Irllc conditions existing are bad enough. but when a sister town trlrgraphs broadcast dclIb- crate and malicious falsehoods it can be done for no other purpose than to injure CordOya. Granting that Valdez is peeved because it lost the interior mail contract there is no justification for its spreading transformation, as it only acts as boomerang.
 When the last regular train left here Dccem Der 2i it had aboard 500 pounds of mail for Fair banks. Iditarod. Ruby and Nome. This train was stalled at 78 in a snowslide and two days later. De- 'remrer 23, a second rotary went tn ihe rescue, also having aboard ,GOO rounds of mail. On account of the clements and unavoidable accidents neither of these trains have as yet reached Chitina. Dur ing the tie-up the supply of fuel for both the engines and rotarics became exhausted and had to be packed from Tiekel to the nearest train, which had reached mile 9s.
