CAMP FLATS
 JOYOUS NIGHT

The Washington's birthday masquerade ball at Flat last Saturday night was enc of the best and biggest affairs that has hap pened in the Iditarod district. All the hotels in town were overcrowded. The celebration lasted from early Saturday. when the dog teams and cutters began to come in to witness the dog race, until Sunday afternoon, and from the time the first masked couple arrived at the hall it echoed with mirth.
 The prize for the best dressed lady was awarded to Mrs. l. BayIes-a beautiful cut glass bowl.
 For the best sustained character Mrs. Thornton, as the weeping widow, was award ed a silver depostware cologne bottle.
 Mrs Selma Swanson, as a country girl, was awarded silver jewel case for the most comic character
 The prize for the best dressed gentleman was won by Mir Beattie as General George Washington military brushes and comb
 For the best sustained character, E, Goldie, as Father Time, was awarded silver shaving mug and brush.
 James Farrell, as 8 clown, received a sill yer smoking set for the most comic char acter.
 The judges recommended special prizes to be awarded to the colonial dancers, the la dies of Flat creek, the dog ambulance, MT. and Mrs Dickson, and the Arabian water girl The committee asked The Pioneer to make special mention of the lady in ermine, Mrs. Claude Baker the colored preacher, Guy Gerraghty; Mrs. Phillips, in Swedish costume the bod carrier Bert Meyers; the wienerwurst man, Dominick Sorici; Harry Watson, as the court jester; the flower girl, Miss Smith Uncle Sam, Henry Roden Mar tha Washington, Mrs PatcheIl, and Mrs. Joseph H. Smith in a spangled pink dress, who was quite favorite with many for the best dressed lady All were deserving of prizes
 The French minuet, danced by the ladies of Flat creek dressed in colonial costume, was the hit of the evning John Lund, vio- lnist, furnished the music for the dancers.
 One of the most striking features of the ball-at least, great many think so-Was the grand finale of stockily-built character in the garb of street peddler, who moseyed among the merry throng necessarily hsping "Red-a hot red-a hot" But nobody seemed to believe what he was saying until an ex plosion of the peddler's layout scattered weinerwursts on everything within radius of 15 feet then everybody believed him.
 The hall was beautifully decorated, and the supper was said to be the best ever served in the hall. The music was good, and was furnished by the creek orchestra.

C. Milton Landerking Travels Long Distance to Cool His Heels
 in Local Calaboose
CASE OF MAY AND DECEMBER
What Can 3 Young Lassie Do Wi an Aud Ran?" Signs One of lditarod's Fair
 but Pickle Residents

George Milton LandeTkIng arrived in the city last Monday from Fairbanks, where he has been spending the greater part of the winter George MiltOn's arrival was not al together unexpected. as there were few affairs of domestic nature that he oplned required his personal attention. As printed in last weeks Pioneer, it appears that George Milton's wife Helen J., a comedy woman of less than 30 short summers, had tntd of the bonds that held her to a lege lord of at least 60 miscellaneous winters, and had instituted proceedings for divorce. This ac- ton was not at all to the liking of the said George Milton, and before leaving Fair banks, it is alleged, he used very strong language in expressing what he intended to do when he arrived in Iditarod. He was met on Monday last by Mrs Landerking on the trail between this city and Flat creek, and together they came to her home, which is in the vicinity of Clevelands sawmill.
 Everything appeared peaceful about the Landerlling fireside until about the time that shadowy eve had surrendered to black -robed night, when it appears that Milt became more or less, as the case may be, obstreper- ous, and was apparently about to call the meeting to disorder when he was over powered, with the assistance of a willing and handy neighbor and George Milton was relieved of robust appearing shooting iron. The strong arm of the law, represented in this instance by Deputy Marshal Charles, was invoked at this juncture, and in re- markedly short space of time c. Milt found himself registered at the Place de Skook where he fingered until Wednesday morn ing when he was taken before Commissioner Albrecht and fined $5 and costs for assault and battery. George also promised the of fcers that he would make himself scarce in this locality within 24 hours. Milt may have stretched the time limit for departure just a trife, but at present he seems to be gone, but not entirely forgotten.

Want Further Light

Senator " L, Jones and Representative W. E. Humphrey want more light before passing judgment,
 T am in sympathy with what Secretary and her resources, and also the need for their economical management" said Sen ator Jones. "Whether he has suggested the best machinery to carry out these much desired policies is something l am not pre- pared to say l would like to have a fuller explanation of what the proposed commis- sion is to do before saying that l would support or oppose legislation to carry out the secretary's idea"
 Representative Humphrey said:
 "A nasty reading of Secretary Lanes rec ommendation indicates to me that he ia vors the creation of commission that will simply be another body between Alaska and congress Such a commission cannot have great powers because it is not to interfere with the existing government of the terrl- tory, and 1t IS to submit recommendations and be subject to the direction of con- gress.
 q would like to have further informa- tion before expressing fuller opinion. l am with Secretary Lane in his desire to have the resources of Alaska developed, and shall back him up when he presents some thing l believe will bring about that re suit"

LANES PLAN IS
 NOT POPULAR
Prominent Members of Congress Believe It Delegates Too Much
 Power to Commission

Washington Jan 24-That a fight Is certain to be made against Secretary Lane : plan of developing Alaska's resources through commission working along the lines of a big corporation was made plain here today 4 number of senators lndi- cated that they were not favorable to the plan as outlined. Among those declaring against it were Pittman of Nevada, chair man of the committee on territories, and PUndexter of Washington.
 One of the chief objections is that the powers of congress will be usurped. Sen ator Pittman expressed himself as follows
 "The secretary of the interiors plan is entirely antagonistic to our form of gov ernment It delegates authority that be longs to congress and should be used by congress It gives too much power to too small a body Moreover, l see no reason for special governmental machinery for no differently than those anywhere else in the United States Congress has ample au- thority and is fully capable of looking after the needs of Alaska. l also want to go on record as opposing the plan as step toward bureaucracy"
 Senator Poindexter said he was in favor of holding the President not a commis sion, responsible and would approve giving the chief executive absolute control in the matter of developing resources.
