OVERLAND COOK
 INLET TO CHITINA

Jack Dalton. the stock and some of the men employed by him in getting the coal out from the Matanuska fields to tide water. crossed overland from Cook Inlet to Chitina and returned by way of Cordova. They left Cook Inlet March l6. Mir. Dalton and some oi the crew are aboard the Mariposa en- route to the South. Mrs. Dalton spent the winter with her husband and made the trip out with him.
 Speaking of his experience this morning MT. Dalton said that he was successful in getting all the coal out, consisting of about HOO tons. The cost of actually moving the coal was not so great as the expense incurred in building roads over which to haul it. He said that he was compelled to build 35 miles of road through heavy timber.
 The enterprise was greatly handi- capped by Paymaster J. w. Swift, who, Mir. Dalton states. not only refused to pay the bills, but also made efforts to induce the men to quit. Many of the men have not yet been paid for their work.

The trees will be furnished by Prof. Georgeson and the farmers will care for them, The ob, feet is to secure the best variety that will grow and produce most success fully In that section.
 Prof Georgeson says he was sur. prised that there is much snow on the ground in the country back of Haines The farmers there will raise heavy crop of turnips this year and arrange ments have been made to market it all.

Perry F.. Jackson was last night elected manager for the Juneau base ball team for the season of 1914, and one of the first announcements made by MT.

Jackson was instruct ed by the Juneau board of managers to secure good players at once and three or four will be brought from be- low. In the meantime Mir.

LODGE URGES SENATE
 TO SUPPORT WILSON

WASHINGTON, April 1O.-Senator Henry Cabot Lodge, of Massachusetts, continued his speech in support of the Panama free tolls repeal bill today. He said that it is the duty of every Senator and citizen to support the foreign pol icy of the administration.
 ITO thwart the purpose or dis credit the policies of the head of a political party is legitimate warfare" he said, but to discredit or break down the President of the United States upon a question of foreign poli' cy is quite another thing, and not to be undertaken except for the very grayest reason"
 Senator Lodge contended that if the Senate fails to support the President in this case, as he was supported by the House. 1t twill paralyze his future power and usefulness where he alone can represent the policy, honor and dignity of the United States"

IRISH HOME RULE
 NOW IN SIGHT

LONDON, April lO.-The Home Rule bill appears to have better prospect of being carried than ever before. The Tories are scared by the indignation aroused by their support of the dis affected army officers and they are now anxious for any settlement. The possibility of an election cry of the Parliament versus the army" has alarmed ell sections of the Unionist party, which may account for the sym. pathy with which Sir Edward Grey's suggestion of a Federal system of government was received. This may lead to renewal of the negotiations between the leaders of the rival par ties.
 It is now planned that Ulster will accept the proposition of permitting the anti.home rule counties to remain out of the Dublin government for six years, and in the meantime both par ties will consult upon accepting the suggestion of Sir Edward Grey, who is leader for the Government in the Commons, pending the reelection of Prime Minister Herbert II. Asquith by his constituency, that Great Britain provide a Federal system of govern ment with written constitution.
 Asquith's acceptance of the issue of the army against the Parliament, his taking over the war portfolio, res lgnation from Parliament and asking for a reelection on the issue that the situation created, together with Sir Edward Greys declaration that the action of the army threatened the per petuation of the kingdom and that If there was an election it would come on more grave question than home rule have completely reversed the political situation.
 Commenting upon the changed con. ditlons, the Times, Unionist, says "this amazing government is prohting by its own mistake" The Times predicts the passage of the home rule bill and it's acceptance on Asquith's terms.
