MORE WORK FOR THE LEGISLATURE

Secretary of War Henry L. Stimson has reported un- favoraby upon the proposal to appropriate sum o money for improving the entrance to kuskokwlm bay ana as result of the finest rivers in the world remains prac ticay closed to It is true that even without the projected aids to gaon ships have in the past ar rived at Bethel and departed therefrom without serious mishap; but that does not alter the fact that such trips are raght with danger to life and property and only under taken on rare occasions at irregular intervals .
 Why the matter of improving the estuary o national waterway should for the secretary of to decide passes compehension but that such is the case pre- cludes the possibility of purely commercial arguments TOT the appropriation having much weight The war depart ment must carry it's business with whatever money Congress may fit provides therefore it not to be wondered that when strict economy demanded distant helpess bottled-up Alaska should the first victim of Congressional parsmony The secretary not responsible floor his attitude in the natter the blame must be placed upon the system which permits commercial highway o such promise the Kuskokwm to be neglected and the development of wonderfully rich district to be retarded simply that funds be reserved for other districts where political pull demands the money shall be spent
 All who have visited the Kuskokwim valley declare that not only in mineral wealth. but also in agricultural possibilities it is land of infinite promise retarded solely of its present inaccessiby. But when small appropriation is asked for to make navigation safer and
 quicker in order to encourage heavier shipments and duee freight charges it is found no funds are avaabe and harbor and aids navigation denied Make Kuskokwim bay navgabe and safe, so that ship could send their vessels there with degree of confidence, freight would fall and the trade of the Kuskokwim valley would grow by lea p and bounds until it rvaled that of the Yukon, But little can be done in the matter of bringing in machinery for the develop men of the region until freight rates reduced and that cannot be hoped for while at the mouth of the river is hazardous.
 Within few weeks the Alaska legislature will be in session. and it appears to that there be i'm portan matter for the legislators to consider than aids to navigation waterways. If the legislature has no power to deal with such matters, then mendation Congress based upon knowledge of the facts may get the needed appropriations when appeals to de- partmenal chiefs would be ill van It is difficult to be- eve that Congress would ignore such appeal especially in view of the fact that increased trade would follow idly It is confident belief that the next two three years will big influx of population into the Kusko kwm valley, and steps should be taken to deal with the traffic which surely will ensue.

DELEGATE EXPECTS LITTLE FROM THE SHORT SESSION

Speaking to representative of the Alaska Daily Empire as he was about to leave Juneau fer the States, Delegate Wickersham had the following to say about future work for the territorial delegate to Congress:
 II don't expect much from the short. session of Congress, but I shall do the best 1 can. It will be my purpose to push legislation relative to the development of our coal lands and for tue construction of railroads.
 II hope to get some results from the present Congress on these two subjects, but I think very little will be accomplished for Alaska's s good until the new administration comes ill. Alaska must look to the Democrats for the needed relief.
 "Nothing can be doue in con nection with coal and railroad legis, lation, especially the latter, until after the committees report. :"
 Calling tue delegates attention to the problem of providing place for the legislature to meet and the lack of contingent funds to pay the hall rent and other incidentals, brought forth the reply: "The bill provides for all that.

Moreau and Grand rivers, which are
to be controlled through reservoirs for

SEEDING WHEAT
Interrupted by Snow Storm
Wet Season Predicted

Mitchell, Feb. 21.-Farmers have
started into seed wheat this year earl
Ter than for the last 10 years. During
the recent mild weather many farmers
east of here have been sowing wheat,
not withstanding the fact there is very
little moisture in the ground, no rain
having fallen to speak of since early
in October. They are taking the
chance for early spring rains to come
and give the seed the start
With the coming of the snow yester-
day, seeding had to stop, as more
snow has fallen than has come dur
ing the entire winter. During the
preceding four days the mercury has
l ranged from 30 to 20 degrees, and has
broken all February records for warm
weather.
The first rain Of the season is report
ed from the northern section of the
state in Sphinx and Brown counties,
where the precipitation is placed at a
quarter of an inch in some places and
heavier in others, followed by cold and
freezing temperature.
Farmers around here are banking on
q wet season.
