MOTOR SlEiGHS.

People of Interior Alaska are in
debted to Bobby Sheldon and to
others for their success in making
motor sleighs, which promise to do
more for remote places in the Ter
ritory than almost any other late
invention There have been several
successful motor sleighs made that
have been successful in minor ways
but it was lett to Mr.. Sheldon to be
the first TO put into practical use
his invention.
Mr.. Sheldon first concluded to cut
down the width of his automobile
so that he could operate it over the
trails used by ordinary sleighs. Then
he hit upon the plan of substituting
runners for the forward wheels OF
his machine This was not sue
cess at first, for the drivewheels OF
the automobile insisted on tOrcint
the runners straight ahead, regard
lass If the way thew We're turned b.
the driver. To overcome this Mr.
Sheldon had the sleigh runners hol
lowed on the same principle as
are skates. This proved successful
and with this change, the combined
automobile and sleigh became at
once a practical success.
While the railroad is being built

pend upon traffic over the trails
through the winter time, and this
will be simplified by the motor sleigh
Just let people begin thoroughly TO
realize the practicability Of the in
vention made by Mr.. Sheldon. and
there will be noticeable at once an
increase in the number Of automo
biles. of the light variety. purchased
here It will end in reducing the
cost Of bringing freight into Fair
banks in the winter time, and should
in time make it possible for the
government to get such cheap rates
for bringing the mail across the
trail that it will all be forwarded
as it arrives at the coast, at least
while the snow is on the ground.
There is promise of another kind
of motor sleigh being put into prac-
teal use in Fairbanks at an early
date. This will be driven by a
propeller. and will have no wheels.
The machine is now under contruc-
ton and is giving promise Of bein,
practical in every way.

FISH LEAD MINERALS.

In table of statistics for Alaska
for the year 1914. published by the
Alaska steamship company. it is
pointed out that last year. for the
first time in the history of the Ter
ritory. the value of mineral produced
here was not more than that of any
other product. The mineral out
put. il is stated was S19,24S,O 600,
while the value of the products OF
the sea totaled S23.112.ooo. The
value OF the canned salmon pro
duced last year in Alaska was s19.-
$4,000. which alone exceeded the
mineral output.
This change Of things is not due
alone to the fact that the mineral
output of Alaska is decreasing for
the last years mineral output was
nearly a. great as that Of the year
previous. The fact is that other
industries OF a permanent nature are
growing from year to year, and that
in time, as has been the case in
California the country will be found
to be source of great wealth OF
numerous varieties, in addition to
its great mineral possibilities.
At the same time, it must be re-
membered that the mineral deposits
of Alaska have only just been
sampled, and that with better trans
portation facilities, the earth here will
be yielding up its great mineral
stores for many generations. There
is reason to believe that the Alaska
range OF mountains will alone prove
to be productive of more mineral
wealth than has been any state in
the country,
! But one kind of industry is GER
tain to promote another, and the
mining industry is certain to create
needs for other kinds of products.
/ Thus the interlocking chain Of in
dustries that come to a country of
varied resources is made up Of many
links.
! There will be time in the future,
and not a far distant future either,
when the annual reports of Alaska S
industrial statistics will tell a con
nected story of rapid advancement.

AN ALMShOUSE NEEDED

Alaska needs an almshouse tt
which helpless people can be sent
for care even though they may
object to going there. The need OF
such an institution. separate and
distinct from the Pioneers Home
at Sitka, has been made strikingly
evident in the last few days, since
Monte" Terrill was given his free
dom, having served out his sentence
for vagrancy
Morally it seemed wrong to send
Mr. Terrill to Jail. for he is no,
a criminal and has no tendencies
Of that nature, but it was the only
thing that could be done to insure
for him proper care, which was an
absolute necessity.
Several years ago, Mr. Terrill lost
both feet as result of their being
frozen. He went to Seattle and had
artificial feet fitted to him. and with
these he returned North But he is
getting along in years, and prob
ably on that account his eyesight
suddenly gave out last summer, and
he has since been blind.
Every time it has been suggested
to him that he 60 to the Pioneers
Home, he has demonstrated, and as
the law does not provide that per
son can be sent there against his
will, it was not possible to commit
him to that institution. Thus early
in the summer he was sent to Jail
on a charge of vagrancy. and when
his time was served, he went to
ter came on, it was found that in
all probability he would set his
cabin on fire if left to care for
himself though his friends had been
doing all they could for him.
Again he refused to go to Sitka,
and was sent to Jail a second time
on charge of vagrancy. Now that
he is out again. it brings back the
old problem Of what can be done TO
insure his safety and comfort. He
is good man and is deserving Of
help, but his friends cannot be ex-
pected to care for him indefinitely
at their own expense and inconven-
fence To send him Outside to be
the victim OF neglect and want
would be inhumane, unless someone
there can care for him.
If Alaska had an almshouse.
where the old man could be sent
for proper care and medical treat
ment, the problem would be settled,
but this is not the case. There will
be other cases Of similar nature
probably. and some provision should
be made to care for them.

THE AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE

Just as Fairbanks was assured
that the government would establish
an agricultural college at Fairbanks,
a North Dakota congressman, who
probably was never in Alaska inter
jects his objections to the college
being situated here, and thereby
prevents the passage of the bill At
this session of congress.
In the limited news that is re-
ceived in Fairbanks. the reason for
the interference of the North Da-
but it is presumed that it is due
to some influence brought to bear
on him by the people of Seward,
who. it is said. want the college to
be established there.
There are various reasons why
Seward would not be proper site
for the proposed college, and it is
quite certain that the killing of the
bill at this time will do that city
no good. An agricultural college
should be placed as near the center
of population as possible. for it
must become the chief institution of
higher learning in the Territory
until a university is established. and
it may be years before that is &C.
complished. Seward is not central
ly located, nor is it surrounded by
a good farming community.
Another reason why the agricui.
tural college should not go to a
coast town, but should be located in
the Interior. is that the young peo-
pie needing higher education on the
coast can more easily go to schools
Outside than can those who are

GOVERNME NTS COMPARED

Patriotism is an emotion that Is
similar in some ways TO filial affection,
and is bred into the system from
earliest childhood F'ilial affection
for unworthy parents. however, Is
often snuffed out. and in just that
way it seems that patriotism for Il
country ruled by an arbitrary mon
arch, who cares more for personal

In some of the foreign school
books, it is declared, the American
citizen is credited with being great
ly devoted TO his country and its
flag, and this is undoubtedly true,
for in America patriotism is de
served Here the country is con
trolled by the people, who in turn
give themselves more personal lib
critics than are enjoyed elsewhere.
But what American could truly
swear allegiance to a man whose
only claim to authority is accident
al birth? How could patriotism, as
we realize it and appreciate it here.
be inspired by men who are arts
tocratic snobs, and get their living
from the people without giving any
thing worth while in return?
Probably when the great war in
Europe has come to an end, this
blind devotion to crown will be
replaced with the cold-blooded judS-
ment of men who have learned and
suffered by hard experience.
Take, for instance, the Gar OF
Russia who owns and receives the
revenues from 100000 square miles
of land. which is almost twice the
area of Alaska, and about one-third
that of the United States proper.
excluding Alaska. This is addition

Worlds Almanac of last year that
the Cars annual income totals $12,-

should suddenly gain control Of that

OUTLOOK is GOOD.

At this writing, it seems that the
long desired bridge for Fairbanks
IS to be built this year The United
States senate has passed bill pro
viding a total appropriation of S425
600 for Alaska trails and roads.
and it is probable that before this is
printed the house will pass the
same bill.
One of the chief reasons that have
been given to congress for an in
crease in the amount of money to
be appropriated is that a new bridge
of permanent nature should be
erected at Fairbanks Thus it Is
almost certain that the appropria-
ton will include the fund necessary
for the work.
At any rate. even though it is
not specifically provided in the APP
preparation that the money mus
be used partially in the construction
OF a bridge at Fairbanks. it is GER
tain that the Road commission will
have the right TO use a part of the
fund for that purpose, provided the
members deem it best to do so
They have previously expressed
their favor for the bridge.
If the big fund is allowed, the re-
suit will mean that considerable
extra money will be put into circu-
lation in the Interior of Alaska this
coming summer, and this will aid in
improving times generally.
1t is Quite certain that much of
the credit for the big road fund is
due to the activity of people Of
Fairbanks. especially those having
charge of the Commercial club, and
thus every dollar that has been
spent for keepin@ up that organize
ton will be repaid with interest if
the proposed fund is finally grant
ed.
Altogether the outlook for this
seasons activities in this district
is unusually good 1t is quite Ger
tain from present Indications that
the government will do some work
on the railroad at this end II is
also certain that there will be more
mining activity here than last year.
for the strikes that have been made
in the Tolovana district will at
tract new prospectors. Then, there
has been marked improvement
in the attention that is being paid
to quartz prospecting, and taking
all together, the people Of Fair
banks should feel assured that this
will be a season of prosperity here
The Alaska citizen. (Fairbanks, Alaska) 1910-1917, 1915-03-01

in the season to look into some
promising quartz prospects. Who
these experts are has not been an
nounced, but IL is safe to predict
that before another winter comes
some big concern will be ready to
do some important development in
this district
IT costs between $4,000, 900 and
$1,000 600 to construct modern bat
tleship. and by the time it is fully
equipped and armed, the cost will
reach almost twice that amount
But to have one of these little sub
marines sneak up under the water
to such a great floating fort and
send it to the bottom without warn
ing. is anything but encouraging
The result should have tendency
to stop the construction of such ex-
pensivs ships.
NEWS from the new Tolovana
is still evident on the part of the
returning prospectors a general sen
timent that the strike is good, and
that it will result in the discovery
of many good properties. With the
development of new gold camp
near at hand the commencement
of railroad work and the expendi-
ture by the government of nearly
half million dollars in road work,
most of it near here. Fairbanks
should be about the liveliest place
this year in the whole of Alaska.
