FRon noHDAvs DAILY OVERLAND MAIL TO

The announcements from Seattle which say that the AL aska road commission will es- tahlish an overland mail ser vice this summer from either Valdez or Chitina by automo- bile Is not wholly correct, ac- cording to Col W. P. Richard son who says; s'I simply prom ised the postoffice Depart mentthat the road commission would. in the prosecution of its regular work. make one or two trips with mail from one or both of the points mention ed. and provide the Department with detailed data from which it could determine the adyan- tage Of such a service and its probable expense. We will be able to do that without expense to the Department with littl. or no expense or inconvenience 10 the road commission"

kASAAN vS. kETcHIKAN

Weather conditions being
 most ideal. the kasaan and
 ketchikan crossed bats. and
 from the beginning of the first 10 the final inning there was never a moInentof doubt as to whom the laura!s would go. The Kasaan boys showed up remarkably well against such a strong aggregation that pre- sented itself on the ball grounds when the umpires called out Play Ball" The wis ting team made several good hits, one Of which in particular was made by Paul Jones for a two base hit. Owing to the eagerness Of the local team wanting to swat the ball for all if was worth, made the bench on the side lines instead Of getting as far as first base. Several amusing incidents oc- cured during the progress Of the game. As usual Doc Walker was in the limeIigh' again. this time being hit by | fo1ied ball. Messre. Erickson and Verney umpired the game alternating each succeeding in- hing. as to bases and the pitch cd balls and this they did with clock lick precision. The fin al score resulted in favor Of Ketchikan II and Kasaan }.

fRoM SATURDAYS DAILY a GOOD SUGGESTION

In order to have a success ful parade on the Fourth of July. it will he necessary to know who will participate. l would suggest that the differ ens business houses have dee oraied floats and the lodges of the town turn out with as many members as they can muster. As an indueement the committee will offer 6 cash prize to the most attractive float. I would further suggest that the houses be decorated. particularly along the line 0f march. publication of which will be made later. I believe that we can make this the fin est parade. and the best 4th of July celebration that keEch- ikan has ever witnessed. If the citizens of the town will rem ember what this day symbOlizes and wake up, and as AmerI- cans show the interest that they should.
 "Breathes there man with soul so dead
 Who never to himself has said
