applied for IA franchise to wire the
town of Hawthorne for electric

and stated that he desired to aban-
don the proposition.
VIM. Pearce appeared before the
board and asked that the county
cooperate with the ranchers of
Sweetwater in building road
through Cottonwood Canyon to
connect Hawthorne with that &c
ton. Mr Pearce stated that it
would take $1,000 to construct u
passable road. The road would be
of great benefit to the people of the
northern end of the county. aud
would greatly shorten the distance
from Reno to the southern portion
of the state, thus attracting "a
large number of tourists who now
travel by other routes. AS scenic
route it probably surpasses anything
in the state, and considering the
money being spent by the neighbor-
ING counties, to attract the tourist
travel, the cost would not be excess
sive. After considerable discussion
the matter was deferred, and will b..
considered at some future date.

 As soon as these facts were made known, the Administration ordered American war vessels to surround the Eitel Freidrich and see that she did not escape. and that nobody go . board or leave the vessel.

The Resolution

Whereas this Club has been advised that our representatives in the Terri torial Legislature, Senator Chas. A. Sulzef and Representative J. R. Heck man, have introduced in the Senate and the House a bill providing for the construction of a street or road. way connecting with Cliff Avenue of ketchikan on the westward and trav- crsing a part of Charcoal Precinct a- long the water front.
 And whereas it is within our knoWl- edge that this is a much needed i'm, provement for the reason that there are over 300 people residing in Char coal Precinct, casting at the last el. ection 142 votes.
 And whereas these people are sep arated from the town of Ketchikan and its commercial advantages by a high hill over which runs a narrow crooked trail, which is reached by steps and stairs, making it impossible for merchants to deliver goods by team or auto delivery.
 And whereas it is impossible to transfer freight. goods, merchandise, coal and lumber over this hi'l the residents of this community are oblfg ed to resort to towing such articles on scows or in the the water
 And whereas there are numerous families with children of school age. who are compelled to traverse this narrow and dangerous trail in the winter months or not attend school at all, therefore:

Laboratory, arrangements have been
made to have all Of these samples ex-
amined and tegted and certificate
issued to the grower Of each sample,

for any man, not to take advantage
Of such q generous offer, on the part
