We would like you to bear in
mind at this time the many ways
in which this Bank is especially
equipped to serve it's customers,
by reason of its long familiarity
with local conditions, it's knOwl
edge of the affairs of its custo-
mers and the experience gained
by a quarter-century Of success
full service to constantly grow
ing list of depositors.
It is surely pleasant to us to be
.lble to talk of these things as
realities accomplished. We trust
that the reading of them may be
profitable to you.

Alaska Mine to Spend 100000.

Juneau.-President F. w. Bradley,
of the Alaska-Juneau Gold Mining
company, announced last week that
the company had set aside 100000
for future developments Of the COM
pany's properties here, and as soon
as the weather permits work OF pre-
pairing for increased operations will
be started.
The first unit of the Alaska-Juneau
ore reduction works, consisting OF
forty stamps, began operation last
March, but further construction OF
mills has been delayed pending ore
tests which were being made. The
announcement verifies the fact that
the ore is good and the supply almost
unlimited.

M 'ARDLE ON STATE
PAYROLL ONCE MORE

we'll known to the majority of the
house members that both Mr.. Nc
Ardle and Mr.. Zednick had taken
state jobs two years ago after the
close of the session, and there APP
peared to be no obstacle in the way
of their getting even better jobs this
year.
No Bar to Acceptance.
ut was also we'll known that there
was no constitutional bar against &C
cepting jobs made available by the
McArdle tax commission bill for the
reason that no positions were spe-
officially created. The incident ended
happily and everybody's speech went
into the house journal for future ref
erence.
"The McArdle tax commission bill
passed the house, but struck a snag
in the senate. The senators were
lacking in sympathy for McArdle's
scheme. and proposed substitute
bill which vested the powers of the
tax commission in the secretary of
state and the public service commits
sion. This measure went through
with a whoop. Later 1t was discov-
cred that the substitute bill bore a
strong family resemblance to one OF
the Seven Sisters, famous last year,
particularly designated as initiative
IL, which proposed to abolish the tax
commission and turn over its duties
to the public service commission. Nc
Ardle. as an employee of the Stop
Look-Listen league. had been en-
gagged for several months in making
the way hard for the Seven Sisters.
and when the similarity of the tax
commission bill and initiative IL was
pointed out most of the legislative
leaders lost their taste for the meas
ure. However, 1t was passed and
sent along to Gov. Lister.
Governor Vetoed Bill.
"The governor promptly vetoed the
bill and the house filed it away in the
archives of the rules committee and
forgot about 1t. The net result of the
legislative jockeying was to leave the
tax commission in exactly the condi-
ton it was before the legislature met.
A supplemental budget item provided
allowance for the commission so that
it's appropriation was brought up to
$4,000, the full amount requested
1.-THE failure Of the tax commission
bill closed the door upon opportunity
for McArdle and Zednick in that par
ticular branch of the state govern
ment. However. there were other
things in sight, and despite their
denials of any desire to keep on the
state payroll, both gentlemen have
done exceedingly we'll in the way Of
jobs.

cational survey commission, created
by the legislature to investigate the
institutions of higher learning. He

McArdle Has Better job.
"McArdle has done even better
than Zednick. McArdle succeeded in
Citing on the state payroll sooner
after the session than his colleague,
and at larger salary. The interval
between March II, when the session
closed, and April l, when McArdle
begin to draw state salary again, is
not unduly long. Zednick must wait
until June 10 before he will again
serve the state
I'm view of the emphatic state
ments made by both McArdle end
Zednick in the house of representa-
tives, one arrives at the conclusion
that they did not take their colleagues
wholly into their confidence or they
have experienced a change of heart
since the denials were made.
Some of McArdle's associates are
now wondering if the heavy increase
in the allowance for examiners for
state departments and institutions
over that of two years ago was made
in part for his benefit.
"The bureau of inspection in the
1915 budget got $1,000 more than it
did in 1913. Strangely enough the
increased allowance is largely for
that particular branch Of the work
which McArdle has undertaken to
perform.

HUNDRED THOUSAND.
Outlook Bright. and u Is Likely That
Enough viii BE Disposed Of
to Secure Nurse.

The sale of Red Cross seals in this
city Is progressing nicely under the
direction OF the local Anti-Tuberculo-
sis Society. Up to and including yes
terday's sales they had disposed OF S.
600, for a total of $3.50. This fund, in
case IL reaches $1,000. will be used TO
secure tuberculosis nurse. and pres
ent indications are that by the end OF
the week enough will have been dis
posed OF TO enable the society to Sc.
cure this much needed nurse.
The society is we'll organized and
has placed ladies in charge OF booths
IN different business places through
out the city. In this way they have
conducted a most successful sale and
are meeting with much encourage
ment in their work. For a time the
sale was rather slow. but during the
past few days IL has taken new life.
and is now showing a daily increase.
IL Is evident that the remaining
days of this week will see a much
larger demand for the seals than any
previous time of the campaign. and
the ladies at the different booths are
preparing for the rush OF the last few
days
IL was said last evening that II the
sale OF seals reached a total Of 100.
600 II would enable the society to Sc
cure the nurse. This will leave ~.
600 seals to be sold during the re.
naming days. and the public is urged
to give assistance in the sales, as il
Will be one OF the greatest things this
community has ever undertaken IL il
is enabled TO secure the nurse.
