Celebration Fur
 Finally


After disposing of tLz u i still remaining from the big railroad celebration, the committee which had that affair in charge disbanded Fri day. The fund left over from the railroad celebration amounted 10 $222, and it was decided to donate 500 of he fund to the celebration that was held Saturday night in honor of Delegate Wickersham
 The remaining $122 was placed in the hands of II. E. St George with Instructions that he shall purchase, through some local merchant, deco rations from the Outside. to be used in future celebrations. The report in the daily papers that the decorations
 70 be purchased directly from the Outside without the aid of local dealers was declared misleading and wrong by members of the committee. The reason for wanting the decora- tions to be brought in from the Outside was explained to be that a new kind is wanted which cannot be obtained here.

Women Voters to
 Hold Mass Meeting

 It is not the intention of the pro- moters of the meeting to place an entire city ticket in the field for the coming election. to be held on April :.
 It is planned to have some at t-rney present at the meeting tonight for the purpose of explaining the meanings of the Ala-ka law allow ing women to vote and hold office

Seattle Credited
 With Aiding Alaska

That the new Seattle Chamber of Commerce had wonderful influ- ence in the work of getting the Alaska railroad bill through congress is the assertion made by Marshal L.. T. Erwin, who arrived from the Outside Saturday afternoon, where he had been since January
 The secret of the success of the bill, declared MT. Erwin after hls arrival, was the work done by the Seattle Chamber of Commerce in convincing Secretary of Interior Lane of the necessity of the road It was Secretary Lane, he asserts, who succeeded in getting the Presi- dents favor for the plan.
 'It was not possible" said MT Erwin, flor the members of the Seattle Chamber of Commerce to get to the President, but they real ized that Lane could get to see him, and so they directed their work on the latter.
 When Lane became convinced that the railroad should be built, he used his influence in getting the President to approve the project, and was successful"
 Mr. Erwin said that he had taken his prisoners to their destination without having had to place irons on any one of them. This ability to bring a man sen.eEced to life imprisonment all that distance with out having him in chains, was surprise to the prison authorities.
 Business throughout the East is good, declared MT. Erwin, and the reports that there are many un- employed men walking the streets, he declares are net true.
