The encouragement that the military bili wln prooabiy carry an appropriation of fve hundred thousand dollars for road and trail construction in Alaska is some
 thing Of vital interest 10 the people ot

Because of this great, this over whelming need, the prospective increase In the road fund allotment should be a matter of more than ordinary interest AScOIuInS to tue new uspatches there IS every prospect that the appropriation will be granted so il is plainly up to the people of Nome and Seward benin su!a to make all possible effort to have the needs of the district propertly pre- sented to the road commission in order that they may secure a proper porpor- ton of the funds which will be ayaila- ble in Ge event of the appropriation o~.nr made. The people of Nome must not lose sight of the fact that roads are needed in other parts of the territory and the citizens thereof will be seeking to secure for themselves as much atten- ton as possible.

Reports to the i. S. Biological
Survey indicate that plume dealers,
sportsmen and others opposed to
sane legislation to prevent the ex-
termination of many species of game
birds and others are awakening to a
realization that the new migratory
bird treaty entered into between the
United States and Canada is a coup
on the part Of the bird protectionists.
Opponents Of bird protection, in
their fight against the federal migra-
tory-bird law, Of which Senator Nc
Lean, Of Connecticut, is the father,
carried their case to the United
States Supreme Court, which has not
yet handed down decision. With
out awaiting the decision the Ma
'tional Association Of Audubon So
eleties, through Senator Mclean and
Chief llcnshaw, Of the Biological
Survey, succeeded in having treaty
ratified with Canada which, auto
matically, established federal control
OF all migratory birds whether the
present federal law be declared cor
stitutional or not.
The question Of the treaty will be
brought UP before Congress, said

the Progressive party disbanding

such rot as we heard all through

If you will stop and think, and
will trace such reports you will
always find they started from a
Standpat Republican paper or a
Standpat Republican politician.
They are evidently doing this
to create the impression that the
Progressives are really guilty OF
doing such things, for the pur-
pose of inducing unsuspecting
Progressives to follow suit.
My Progressive friend, you
have not and will not hear any
of the above reports coming from
the Progressive party, its press,
or its leaders.
Don't be fooled by the old Re
publican politicians, or induced
to join them in their old time
caucuses and conventions, which
they are holding in every place
they can control.
