MANY PEOPLE SEEKING
 HOMES lN THE NORTH

W. J. Lewis, special United States land agent with head
 quarters at Seattle. who is now in Alaska. will be kept busy along the coast of Alaska all summer owing to the business that is piIing up. It is the bus -iness of Mfr. Lewis to examine
 all lands for which homesteads or patent is asked for in Alas ka. On every incoming boat are people looking for homes in Alaska, attracted by the pro- posed government railroad. Many of the prospective set-
 tiers are headed for the SusIt- ma valley. The impression has
 gained circulation that the railroad will go in that direc- tion. It Is admitted by those who know the conditions that there is not a more favorable section in Alaska for carrying 1on farming, as to climate. soil and other natural advantages. Some day the Susitna valley will support large population.

FAIRBANKS WORKING
 FOR CONVENTION

Fairbanks is out after the Democratic convention. Bus mess organizations have talk en the matter up and will ask the cooperation of the local Democratic club. Fairbanks Is not overlooking any bets these days. The citizens recently or ganized for 6 million dollar fair and whatever others may think the people there are in deadly earnest about getting 1t and making 1t a success. Regard ing the Democratic convention for the nomination of delegate 1t is claimed that 1t is not only and logical point, but that the Fourth division is power in politics and entitled to recog- nation. It Is also claimed that the coast towns are so cut up by factional fights that there would be little chance in hold ing a convention with any de- gree of harmony. It is the opinion that in the event of convening a representative con yention in point ct attendance, good might be accomplished towards securing additional legislation at the hands of con gress.

The directors of the exposition have been expecting a tremen- dous reunion of Norwe gians. From transportation sources it has been estimated that over i5o,n ,n0a from the United States alone will attend the ex- n'siiin' and every thing will 70 icne io make the visitors feel at home.

Napoleon had his Waterloo, Lee his Gettysburg, the Span sards their Teddy" at San Juan
 Hill, but all these epoch making battles are dwarfed into insig- nificance when compared to the druhbing the old Has Beens administered to Walkers rib bon winders on the local dia- mond last night. It was a wonderful game. a revelation in many respects 10 the big crowd of spectators who went home all of them of the opinion that It was the finest exhibition of the national Pass time ever witnessed in Alaska. The old fellows played an errorless game with the single exception of George Rounsfell who miss ed 6 foul pop up in the second and immediately challenged the whole crowd to game of foot bail at two o'clock next week. Milo Hoadtey's work as umpire was wonderfudl and 1t Is safe to say that he will be in great demand in that eapae- lty for the balance of the sea- son. It must be said that for crowd of kickers. Walker and his bunch had everything else backed off the boards. Lawrence Erickson even ob- sect when Joe Mahoney faced him al the home base for the
 third time in one inning. Harvey Staekpols's base rum sng was marvellous. coming II. from second an clean steal while the catcher was standing within three feet of the home base with the ball in his hands.
 Lack of space doesn't allow an itemized account of the game. but from this brief dis cription ofihe cardinal features It will be seen that the Counter Jumpers were completely out elassed. The final score of 1 10 } in favor of the old fellows shows their mettle and even Doc. Walker acknowledged after the game had passed that the best team won.

FROM THURSDAYS DAILY

Lieut.. Edgerton and Super of Construction Jack Hayes. of the Alaska Road Com
 lission arrived down from the north on the last boat and spent yesterday looking over the road across the Portage of Prince of Wales Island from Chomley Sound to Hetta Inlet. Today they examined the route of the proposed road from the own boundaries to Charcoal Point and both of them are favorably impressed with the anne. They will have the lat ter road surveyed and a blue print made of same. Lieut.. Edgerton asked the iMner Man to call the attention of the res idents and lot occupyers along the route to Section ten of the Act extending the Homestead laws and making provision for the taking up of lands in the Territory for purposes of Trade. This law provides that a right of way 60 feet in width shall be left parallel to the shore line as nearly as practicable for the use of the public as a highway. Then" he says, several people have taken up locations along the waterfront, and have erected platforms along the way, which are almost sure to be damag- ed by flying debris when the work of constructing the road and blasting cut roadway be- gins. and it seems to me they should be warned at this time that they have no property rights there if the United States desires to use the place they have taken Up. The Lieutenant gave as his opini oE that roadway constructed as the Road Commission docs it's work, will cost in the neighborhood of twenty thous- and dollars. This would pro- vide for double fir planking sixteen feet in width. He is of the opinion that this amount will be available for the work by the time the legislature meets next March, and lhc probabilities are that little, if any, trouble will be experien~ ced in securing the money for the work, as the fund must be expended for road work with n the Forest Reserve from which it was collected. This means that the residents northwest of the town boundaries must wait in patience with the assurance that a thoroughly substantial road will be built for them next year, and with that they Hiuss rest content.
