WASTE TIME
AND MONEY
Present Legislature of no Real
Benefit to People. Playing
Politics.

Santa Fe. March Consistently
adhering to his record of opposition
to exorbitant county salaries, Gov
ernor Mcdonald vetoed the Repubh-
can county salary bill, providing for
the wasting of more than million
of the peoples money, The Repu-
blican majority in the house and
senate promptly complied with the
formalitv of passing the bill over the
veto by two.thirds vote, and it is
now law. The salary bill provid-
ed at the first session of the State
legislaturs was wrong" said the
governor in his veto message Those
presented since were wrong and this
one is wrong. 1t is not fair and
just to the taxpayers of The State
They are entitled to an equal show
with the officials "
A startling possibility of the Re
publican county salary bill has been
called to public attention by Ralph
c. Ely, Republican state chairman,
who points out that in the event the
present legislature redecms the Re.
publican party pledge to establish n
maximum tax rate OF one per cent,
all the second, third, fourth and
fifth class counties viii be raised 10
counties of the first class, and their
officers will be entitled to The ex.
travagant salaries provided TOR of
ficers of first class counties Section
10 Of the bill provides that after
January, 1917, the classification Of
counties be governed by the assessed
valuation as fixed for the preceding
calender year. Mr.. Ely holds the
opinion that with maximum tax
rate of one per cent there is not a
county in the state that would not
show at least $4,000 90 in taxable
property.
? The Republican bill, under present
conditions, provides Coz the distrihu
tinn, in the seven y ears necessarily
covered by the act, to approximately
$50 people, of over SIS, 5000, coo OF
the peoples money.
According to declaration Of Sen
alor Barth. Democrat, OF Belnahllc
county, on the floor of the senate,
the game of getting the governors
goat" by dspriving him OF his ap-
pointbe powers, has been arranged
by the Republican part, dictator,
with the object of keeping the
minds of the legislators off taxaticr
and other important matters "Thel
figure" he said, that legislatur,

against The executive of the state

SEWARD ROAD MAY
 NOT BE PURCHASED

With preferred claims of S1,000,0OC
 against the Alaska Northern railroad
 and the bondholders who have Invest
 ed SI000,00O in cold cash In the q.
 nancing of the road forced to be sat.
 isfied with S15O.00O which the govern.
 ment will pay over and above the
 the Sl,00OOO0 necessary to pay the preferred claims If the present deal
 is carried through. the chances are
 good that the Seward railroad will never become the property of the
 United tSates government
 The above statement, made by Col. Swanitz last night to the editor of the Valdez Prospector. indicates that the owners Of the railroad are not all of one accord and that the deal for the Westward railroad may not be com cluded.
 Whom shown the telegram received by the Prospector late last night, in which 1t is reported that the govern ment had issued an ultimatum to the owners of the railroad to settle the question of ownership by June lst, or the road would not be purchased. the colonel said that it did not surprise him and be outlined the conditions of the sale of the road to the govern ment as follows;
 "The preferred claims total S1.O00.- GOO and the associated banks headed by the Toronto bank. own but S46O.- 900 worth of the claims. with S2t0.000 now held by O. G. Loberee. the former. receiver of the Alaska Central, and Sl000oO held by w. J. Roland, the attorney who made the deal with sec retary Lane. These claims are all to be paid before the bondholders se- cure any mony for the S1OOO,000 they to the road and in carry on the receiyership which gave the Al- aska Northern the railroad The As- sociated banks have agreed with the government to give title on July 10th. when they are to receive S5o0,O0O as a first payment. but they cannot make the deal with the outstanding preferred claims nor can they con vince the bondholders that the small port of the total, or $l50,0Oo which the bondholders are to get, Is enough for the S1O00.00O advanced by them many years ago and on which they have never received any returns. The Toronto banking syndicate have put up a bond of S5OO.OO0 to guarantee this to the government" ]"
 Suits have already been started by the bondholders to have the first re- set aside and the Alaska | Central case reoponed. The suit for | Inc townsite also complicates the sit | nation and may result in the building ! of a government road from Anchor ,ge to Matanuska and the interior | with Anchorage as the coast termin- l-(Vandez Prospector)

Uncle Sam, @ generous father to the children under his care, ia pre- pairing to feed clothe and provide a proper shelter for the native colony on the seal reserve of the Pribnof Islands, He 'will need vast and varied assortment of supplies.
 The specifications show that the government requires everything from box kites and comic masks for the youngsters in the reserve to arms and ammunition, boots and shoes, furni- ture and groceries, hay and grain. paints and oils, glass. clothing, lum. ber tools and implements and other supplies and articles Of general mer chandise, such as would be used by a community of from 200 to 3$0 per sons.
 Romance Amid statlsties
 The supplies are to last the long winter through for tho officials and on the reserve. The specifi- cations in their unromantic way give ono item as follows:
 Paper festooning suitable for the Christmas decorating, in pieces of about thirty feet each, three dozen pieces" When the government clerk back in Washington wrote this specid- cation, perhaps it occurred to him that Uncle Sam had time in the nun dane rush of providing for his charg- es to think of their holiday and rec reation needs as well.
