The following news item was written for publication in Saturdays issue of the Daily Alaskan, and already in type, but got mixed with other matter that waG left over on account of lack of space and did not appear as intended. Whether CT not our remissness had anything to do with the non-observance of the day here We have no means of knowing, but it Is true, neyerthe- less, that but few if any business house or public offices closed their doors for business, which is not as it should be, for this day should be observed strictly as a holiday by every patriotic Alaskan. and in speaking thus we include ourselves in tie dereliction of duty and promise that it shall not occur on future anniversaries of the day.

follows:
During the twelve months

of the one hundred counties of
the State, working on 403 differ
ent pieces of road, and 80 bridges
constructing during that time 855
miles of road, at a cost of 81. 767,-
01O. Of this amount, the state
contributed $500 direct ap-
preparation and SIG, 900, derived
from the automobile tax, these
two funds being known as state
money aid. In addition to this.
the state appropriated $145, 900
for the maintenance and support
of the convict road force. The
remainder was raised by direct
levies or magisterial district or
county bond issues.
''The state is at the present
time maintaining convict camps
in thirty counties, and is work.
