Wireless For
 West Coast

Senator Sulzer is certainly work ing overtime for the interests of his particular section of South eastern Alaska, and in fact for the whole of the first district, and is introducing in the senate many needed and worthy measures which we heartily endorse, His latest is the introduction of a memorial introduced in the senate on March 18th asking for wireless stations at Sulzer, Craig and To- keen. The memorial points out that the towns are badly in need of means of communications, as the army cable does not serve them. The memorial is now in the hands of the committee on transportation, commerce and nav igalion, ahd there is every indica- ton of early action being laken on 1t.

Big Row
 Over Boat

A warral was issued last Thur sday for the arrest of Chas. And erson charging him with stealing gas boat and set of carpenter tools. The charge was made by A. I. Dawson of ketchikan. and at the hearing Friday morning it came out that the trouble arose over the gas boat Richmond which Dawson claims to own, the boat was wrecked a year ago near Lin- eoln Rock and the original own- CTS left for Seattle where Dawson claims to have bought the boat, and they left the boat in care of Anderson. Anderson has spent the past winter working on the boat and as his grub ran out he worked her out into the water and made a sail and started to sail to Wrangell and after getting part way here was picked up and lowed into port when Dawson arrives and made the complaint. At the hear ing Anderson states that he did not try to steal the boat but that he had to get away somehow to get grub, and that he had turned the boat over to the custom house but that he wanted wages for the work he had put on her. The case was dismissed and as Daw- son could not show any papers for
 the ownership of the boat it is in
 the hands of the custom officer.

Mrs. Olson
 Passes Away

The community received a sad shock last Tuesday morning to learn of the death of Mrs. Oscar Olson, which occurred at the family home at Io:3o Monday evening, March 22nd. The death of Mrs, Olson was caused from septic poisoning, from which she was sick but three days.
 The passing away of Mrs. Olson is very sad incident. A young woman, but twenty-five years of age, with the full of life before her and with two little girls, the oldest but seven years and the youngest four, to be calted to the great beyond when life was at it's best is indeed sad.
 Mrs. Olson, nee Amanda Johan. son, was born in Karlsamn, Sweden, January 10, 1890, and came to America in 1905, living with relatives in San Francisco and was married in that city on December 10. 1907 to Mir. Oscar Olson. Two children came to bless the union, both born in San Francisco. Mir. Olson and family came to Wraligell two years ago and have made this their home since, and have a wide circle of friends.
 The deceased leaves to mourn her demise, besides her husband and children; her m other and father in Sweden, and three sisters Mrs. Anna Olson and Mrs. Segard Johnson of Seattle. and Mrs. M. Larson of San Francisco, and two brothers, MT. Frank Iohanson of Ballard, Wash, and MT. Martin Johanson of Patterson, Calif., and brother-in-law MT. Ali Olson of Wrangell. Alaska.
 Rev. Clark off1ciated at the funeral services held Tuesday af- ternoon, and she was laid to rest in the Red Mems Cemetary. The heartfelt sympathy of the entire community goes out to the prostate hus band and family and may they be comforted by the knowledge that she sleeps in peace away from the cares ot this world.
