The Chitina leader., 1914-01-27

of which Representative Henry, of Texas is chair
man, failed to give the motion their unanimous
consent and the attempt to get speedy action on
the measure was defeated. 1t is expected that a
vote will be taken next Wednesday on rule which
will enable the change to be made.
The motion to substitute the Senate bill for the
measure before the House followed conference of
the Democratic leaders after the measure had
passed the Senate. The mover of the resolution in
speaking to the motion today declared that it was
the desire of both houses to speedy action
as possible and if the Senate measure with amend
ments acted upon in the House without further
amendments being added the bill would be ready
for the presidents signature at early date and
would avoid any extended conference of the Senate
and House committees, as was the case with the
tariff and currency measures. The friends of the
bill believe the substitution will be made and that
the measure will pass the House on February II.
Some of the Southern Democratic members of
the House claim to have sufficient support among
the Republicans to defeat the measure in the House.
They are opposed to the government ownership
feature of the bill. The friends of the Alaska bill
in the House are manifesting no uneasiness as the
same claim was made in the Senate before the
measure to vote, when several of the
Southern Democrats switched at the last moment
and supported the measure The bill is recognized
as administration measure and for any Demo
cratic representative to oppose it any grounds
would be breaking faith with the party.

WASHINGTON, D. c., JAN 27-Colonel W. P
Richardson, president of the Alaska Road Com
mission, is asking congress for appropriation of
$7,250,0O0 for wagon roads and trails in Alaska.
His annual report has been received and presents a
comprehensive scheme of wagon roads and trails
which should be undertaken to provide feeders for
the railroad lines which may be built by the
government
The report says that no rapid development of
Alaska will follow the construction of the trunk
lines to interior Alaska from tidewater unless they
are preceded accompanied by the construction of
numerous wagon roads and trails Many mining
sections of the vicinity of the lines will require
roads to permit of their being fully developed The
commission estimates that $7,250,00Os will be
required for the maintenance and completion of the
projects which have already been undertaken and
other projects which have been approved by the
commission. ,y,e--.:
The report points out that the proposed trunk
lines to the interior would necessarily follow the
ridges and that roads and trails would have to be
provided to the distant camps in order that they
might be developed to their fullest extent and
become feeders for the trunk lines The report also
states that automobiles have passed over the road
from Fairbanks to the coast and that with little
additional cost the road be made passable at all
times during the summer.
Many new placer camps have been discovered
during the past summer in widely different parts
of the territory which would have received aid in
the way of better transportation facilities had the
money been available for that purpose

GOVERNOR SLATON
BACK FROM MACON

Atlanta, January 19.-Governor Sla-
ton spent the weekend at Macon to
attend the funeral of Colonel Pendle-
ton, editor of the Macon Telegraph for
whom he had a high personal regard
which dated back over many years.
The governor is expected to be at
work in his office some time today and
one of the first things he will have 10
consider this week will be the wrangle
between Adjutant General Van Holt
Nash and Quartermaster General
Obear.
This question would probably have
been decided by the governor some
time ago, but number of imperative
things have interviewed Week before
last his consideration of it was inter-
rupted by the threatened lynching
which he handled by bringing the thr 3e
threatened negroes to Atlanta for
trial, where they were duly convicted
and sentenced to hang.
Last week the governor had two pc
titions of men sentenced to hang to
CONSIDER, one of which, that of l. B.
Hall, who was alleged to be insane,
required considerable study and inves-
tigation.
This week, however, it is believed
that the governor will have a cleaner
deck. and that some final decision NAV
be reached over the Nash Obear row.

presented the recommendation to the
apartment of justice, as he agreed.

that Alexander Alderman, the present
incumbent, be permitted to serve

rumors Of hostility to Mr. Adams con =

con is not disposed to yield the night.
He will press for confirmation.
Friends of Mr.. Adams insist that

client he will serve Uncle Sam as
we'll as he has ever served a private
client.
J. T. Hill, Of Cordele, who has been
mentioned in connection with this
