HOLD COTTON MASS MEETING.
Bankers, Merchants and Farmers Of Union
 County Adopt Resolutions.

In response to a call for mass meeting of the bankers, merchants and farmers of Union county to be held in Fl Dorado Tuesday. Sep tember 22, sent out by the Fl De- rado Board of Trade, very rep re entative gathering of these in terests was present when Albert Rowell called the meeting to order at 800 o'clock that morning.
 The organization was perfected by the election of MT. Rowell as chairman and Mir. Beloit as secre- tary. Considerable time was con- lmed in speech making on the sit uaton that now confronts the South on account of no cotton mar ket, and many good talks were made by men representing the diff fsrent walks of life present.
 A committee of five, consisting of B. w. Reeves, C. H. Murphy. M. Muse, j. w. Perdue and J. K Ma hony, was appointed to draft reso- lutons, which were afterwards unanimously adopted by the mass meeting. The substance of the resolutions is as follows:
 First. That Governor Hays be requested to meet with the govern ors of the cotton growing states and use his best offices towards the drafting and having enacted law which will reduce the cotton acre. a ge in 1915 at least 50 per cent.
 Second. That in order not to sacrifice the crop of 1914 the debtor and creditor get together and store the cotton necessary to meet the debts until it can be sold for at least 10 cents per pound.
 Third. That the farmers of Un- ;en. county plant cover crops at onse Tor pasture, etc. so as to con serve the present short corn crop and next year raise more corn. hay. potatoes, etc, than heretofore so as to live at home.

MAY SEED THE
 VALDEZ DYKE Col. Richardson Endeavored to Se- cure the Seed From the Agricui-
 turai Department.

Col. Wills. F. Richardson, of the Alaska Road Commission, which built
 the Valdez dike to protect the town
 and government property from the in
 roads of the glacier stream, is anx- l ious to SOW the embankment with
 grass seed in the hopes that the mat ting of grass roots will prevent the | washing of the sands when the Wa ters strike it. | In order to secure the most expert l advise possible the colonel wrote to
 Professor c. c. Georgeson and re-
 quested his advice and in reply was g ven a list of 15 seeds which are
 to be mixed together and will grow a heavy matt of grass roots, as the
 roots creep. As the appropriation for the dike
 is exhausted it is possible that the city will purchase the seeds. Prof.
 Georgeson says they will cost about S6OOO and that the department does not nave them all. The list is as follows: Ten pounds Agrostis stolonifera 1 Creeping bent. Five pounds Agrostis vulgaris Cred (top). Five pounds Alopecurus pratensis | (meadow foxtaiD. Twenty pounds Ammophila arundi-
 nacea (beach grassy. Twenty pounds Avena Elatior Uall

TRAIL IS OPEN
 ID THE INTERIOR
Reports From All Stations Show Fine Road All the Way From VaI-
 deg to Fairbanks.

The reports received each morning at the local cable office from each of the operators along the military cable and telegraph line and incidentally along he government road from Val dez to Fairbanks indicate that the road is open from the coast to the interior and is in excellent condi- tion. The Wilson teams, numbering twenty-three, have just completed de- livery of stores to all the stations. The Mcintosh outfit is relaying feed along the line for use when the big freight shipments come from Seat tie to be taken to Nelchina via the Valdez route. The Wilson outfit is doing likewise and expects to secure some of the many big shipments ex- pected to go via Valdez to the Nel- china and Chisana.
 Now that the glacier route from Mccarthy has proven failure, ac- cording to the reports received here yesterday of teams beii.s stalled, the freight will largely go via Valdez and Chitina. The Valdez route is by far the cheapest, as the cost of trans porting stock and provisions from the coast to Chitina over the Cordova road and the ever present danger that the road will be blocked for from ten to 72 days, as it has been ever since it was opened, the Valdez route over the government road is the best, surest and most economical to the in terior.
