The U. s. s. Wilson, survey and general utality tug of the Arr1.y with headquarters at Seattle, Wash came in port last Monday evening. Her visit to Wrangell was for the purpose of bringing here Capt. Greely who was authorized by the War Department to make an invest igation of the proposed survey and dredging of the Dry Straits.
 As soon as the vessel arrived MT. Grely made his mission known and ask that the committee from the Chamber of Commerce meei with hi'r on board the ship the next morning al nine O clock.
 At nine Tuesday morning the following members of the Chamber nf Commerce met on the boat, F. Matheson, ]. c. Grant, L. C. Pate naude, P. c. Mccormack, Leo Mo- Cormack, ]. II. Wheeler and Pau. F. Stanhope, and after lene thy discussion of details with MT. Greedy arrangements were made to go over the proposed route, so at n5on the party left on the Karen and With K.

Meets Dry Straits Committee - Goes Over The Proposed Route Will Make His
 Report To Seattle Office

While MT, Greedy would make
 no statement for publication, he seemed Very enthuastic on his re-
 turn from the trip, and it is felt
 that his report will be a favorable one. The Dry Strait Committee.
 F. Matheson, chairman, k. J. b. hansen and P. C. McCarmack, are working very diligently and much credit is due them for carrying this matter through.
 Dry Strait lies between Mitkof Island and the tide flats adjoining the mouth of the Stikine River, running from Kadin (High) Island 1t point four miles from Wran- gell, into Frederick Sound n=ar the northern end Of Dry Island. q total distance oi nine miles,
 The advantages of a canal acrOs Dry Straits has long been rec g. nized by nayigators and local auth critics. The new route would s ort- an the trip from Seattle to Skae-
 way as it would do away with the passage of Wrangell Narrows wh ere the ships have to wait for favorable tide to get through, and some draw too much water tO go through at all and are forced f go
 around Cape Decision, which
 makes the trip 15o miles Ions >r,
 Another point that has weight
 with the war department is that
 with the new channel any of Uncle
 Sans war vessels could be sent up
 the Inside Passrge, which Is inl-
 possible as they cannot pass
 through Wrangell Narrows, and thereby would save much in time ot need.

New Departure in Tax Collection

Pierre-An entirely new de-
parture in the collection of taxes
of corporations is attempted in
senate bill So, which passed the
last session as an emergency
measure and seeks to compel ad-
judication Of taxes through the
circuit courts of the state before
any action may be brought in
the United States court. The
main features of the law being
to require payment first, and
then if the companies are not
satisfied, they may bring suit
for recovery of said taxes. The
first suit under this law will be
brought in the Huges county
court, the papers having been
filed in the cases of the Wells
Fargo Express company and the
American Express company for
collection of taxes due from these
companies, the suit being COM
menced by State Treasurer
Ewert. The amount claimed to
be due from the Wells Fargo
company is $l4,390.6O, and the
amount asked from the American
Express company is S11,711.28.
1t is not likely that the case will
come on for hearing until the
October term of court in this
county, as the papers were not
filed in time to get into the April
term.

LET'S GET BUSY.

Roberts County has a splendid
chance to get on the band wagon
OF progress by taking ADVANTAGE of
the recent enactment pertaining to
the better farming movement, Our
section OF the country, which is
undoubtedly the richest apricul-
tural portion, should head the
movement. The requirement for
the county is that 200 farmers con-
tribute $500 apiece. This would
entltle us to our share of the state
appropriation and an equal amount
from the national government. In
the Traverse county, Minnesota,
organization is proving highly eff
fective and good results are more
manifest every day. Conditions
i'll Roberts county are very much
similar and we are holding our
selves back, and our general de-
velopment along the lines of better
farmingis being retarded from the
lack of somebody to take the in
ltlative. 1t is a remarkable fact
that in every county in Minnesota
and South Dakota where these
principles have been put into opera
ton and adhered to, there has been
marked increase in land values.
Brown Co., So. Dak. through the
help OF a county agent increased
her alfalfa acreage from ESQ acres
to 1000 acres. We all know what
alfalfa will do for lank values. Any
land that will grow reliable stand
OF alfalfa is cheap a, S1OO. We
know the benefits of organization
because we have seen it proved in
every instance. Then let's get
busy. White Rock Journal.
