GOVERNMENT INSPECTOR
PAYS AtAsKANs TRIBUTE

Food Inspector E. A. Mcdonald, who
has just completed an inspection of
all food and drug products at all
towns in Southwestern Alaska claims
that our merchants carry relatively
higher grade of goods than do the
sop-keeper in the states.
81 have been surprised with the high
grade of goods of all kinds found on
the Alaskan markets." said Mr. Nc
Donald Il find the average run OF
stock in the grocery and drug stores
in Alaska is of the very best, and
where store carries a brand of
goods it is always the highest grade
turned out by the factory.
This is true of the entire Pacific
Coast to a certain extent, although 1t
is more true of Alaska than anywhere
else. This is explained by the fact
that there are very few poor people
in Alaska. By poor people / mean
those who are actually in want and
buy cheap goods in preference to high
er priced stuff"

MEANING OF INDIAN
NAMES IN ALASKA

Matanuska is a pick up word hay
ing no meaning in the Indian langu.
age, and no one seems to know from
whence it originated. The native
name for the Matanuska River is Cha
tonka, meaning the swift running
river. The syllable ma" in the native
language means river and the rest Of
the word disignates the special one
as Chitina, which is the name for the
Copper River. Chit meaning where
the copper is found, and the rest of
word designating river.
The native name for the Knik is
the Skidina, or the Tent River. deriv-
ing it's name from the fact that the
natives maintained Temporary camp
at the mouth Of this river.
Tanana means the river of travel, In
other words it was summer road
or trail for the natives with their
canoes, and in winter was their trail
over the ice.

WILL
!. HAVE: WATER
system

ANCHORAGE, Aug. pa perman.
ent water supply for the new townsite
comprehends the installation Of a
lsteam pumping plant at some point
on Ship Creek, not yet definitely de-
Itermined. The water will be pumped
to a steel tank and tower, 80 feet in
height, placed on concrete abuttments.
The tank will have a storage, capacity
of 100000 gallons. A 5-inch pipe line
will convey the water from the pump
ing station to the tower.
The tank will be located on the east
end of the town and 6inch main
underground will be laid from thence
down the alley between Fourth and
Fifth avenues as far as X street, on
the west end of town. Lateral lines
will reach out from the main at every
other cross street, ending on the op-
posite sides of Fourth and FIFTH aven-
ueS, lot ACCOMMODATION Vi pcISOuS
living on Third and Sixth, as well as
those in the immediate vicinity.
The proposed system will place
water within easy reach Of most of the
inhabitants, but it is planned to make
further extensions Of the system
should the funds permit at this time
1t is figured. and the figuring has been
liberal, that the proposed system will
cost $4,000. Should this amount
prove more than required for the sys-
tenn planned, then. as stated before,
further extensions will be made.
The townsite manager and those in
authority have taken this proposition
up with the people. as represented by
the local chamber of commerce, and
the plan has been heartily endorsed.
OF course the property owners will
have to pay for installation, but the
system of pavements will extend over
a period of five years, so that the ass
essments will not prove burdensome.

HURLS ANATHEMA AT
 PEACE TALKER

SAN FRANCISCO. July 22.-Form. CT President Theodore Roosevelt read his address yesterday afternoon, excusing 1t on account Of his desire that 1t be correctly reported. He gave considerable space to an exposition of his views on war The salient points brought out in these epigrams:
 Probably the worst feature of our national life is the habit of treating elocutlon as an adequate substitute for action"
 There can be no efficient prepared ness against war unless we prepare our own souls"
 Men who are not ready to fight for right are not ht to live In a free democracy"
 Professional pacincists are seek ing to 'Chinafy' this country"
 We have been culpably and wen nigh criminally remiss as a nation in not preparing ourselves" "
 That abject pacifist song, T didn't raise my boy Co be soi0ler shoulu have as a companion piece one enti- tied, T didn't raise my girl to be a mother"
 "The only women fit to be wives and mothers in a free republic are those who feel that their sons are not sons of theirs unless when their country calls their souls are eager and their feet iubiant to an- swer."
 The speaker urged all American cit izens to rouse themselves and pre- pare to stem the tide that pacinsts are endeavoring to set in motion.
 The speech was delivered to one of the largest audiences that ever heard a speaker in this city. and many of his points frequently applauded.

TEUTONS TRYING TO
 FORCE ROUMANIA

BERLIN, July 22-While the gov ernment officials refused to comment on the semi-official reports that Aus. tria has served notice on Roumania that 1t must consent to the transpor- tation of war munitions and supplies to Turkey as long as 1t permits war material to cross it's territory from Russia and Serbia, prevailing express sior is that the Bucharest govern ment will be forced to a show down
 According to reports, Austria has given Roumania one month in which to decide it's future course. All Ger mans who are in close touch with the situation in the near east believe Rou- mania has permitted its subject to render all aid possible to Serbia, thus winking at the violation of neutral- fly.
 There is no doubt that any action taken against Roumania by Austria will have the backing of the Ger mans. The Berlin and Vienna foreign offices are working in complete har- mony.

FATE OF RUSSIAN ARMB IS HANGING IN BALANCE
TURKEY FEARS FOR FATE OF
 CAPITOL CITY

LONDON, July 22.-The arrival in Swiss territory of peace envoys from Turkey whose departure from Con- stantinopIe was reported last week is regarded as conhrmatory Of the re- ports that the Turkish defense of the Dardanelles and Constantinople is wavering
 While the Turkish seekers for sep arate peace have not disclosed the terms which Turkey would be willing to comply with for separate peace, it is regarded as unlikely that they will be satisfactory, for 1t is believed here that the Allies would consent to noth- ing less than the surrender of Con stantinople.
