Administration Ticket
 Announced Today
BASE BALL GROUNDS
 ARE NOW ASSURED

It's all right. Juneau will have a ball park in time for the opening of the 1914 season. It developed at last nights meeting in the office of B. L.. Thane that there are several good locations available in which to estab- fish the baseball grounds and that the business men of Juneau are willing to invest their money in securing the necessary land and place it in proper shape.
 Last nights meeting was even more enthusiastic than that of We'd nesday night. The committee solicit ing subscriptions to the stock of the association reported substantial pro- gress, having secured we'll along to- ward the $6.OOO mark. After much dis cussion it was decided not to be too precipitous in closing a deal on prop erty for the reason that other desir- able sites were reported to be avail able.
 Mir. Thane appointed a committee to look at different sites and report at subsequent meeting as to cost of land and the cost of putting it in condition. This committee consists of J. R. VII lis, George Burford. D. A. Eysteyn and .R. w. Wulzen.
 The committee appointed to report on the site of the natural amphithea- tre and skating pond reported that the site would hardly be available this sea- son. if at all, owing to the fact that there was no one connected with the ownership or management in position to make or accept a definite proposi- tion at this time. The meeting ad- iourned until next Friday unless called sooner by the chair.

Halnes Railroad Might Yet Come.
 WASHINGTON, March 14.-Ampli. flying a statement that he had given out concerning the connection of the Alaska railroad system with that of Canada, Secretary of the Interior F. K. Lane said today:
 Tn conference with committees of the Senate and the House have urged the feasibility of such railroad, and I believe that the Canadian govern ment is ready to cooperate with us. I believe it is possible for us to build to the Alaskan boundary to meet the Canadian road by the time our neigh bors will be able to come to us.
 "A railroad cannot be built in day. The present plans involve four or five years work If by that time the prop osition to extend the Canadian line northward from Fort George is un. der way 1t should be practicable to make connections between the Tan ana river and the boundary of Yukon Territory. That would traverse with a railroad the country which was pro- posed to be served by the line suggest ed a few years ago that it was pro- posed to build out of Haines Mission. It is a country of easy gradients, of wonderful mineral and agricultural possibilities and marvellous scenic beauties"
