New Mail Carrier

A new type of mail carrier has replaced the weatherbeaten stage driver of fiction in Alaska, if Arthur J. Hill, of Valdez. who is at the Sa. voy. is any criterion, says Che Seat tie P..I. of Nov. 27th In the old days, when the trails were far from distinct and dog teams and pack horses were the chief mode Of tray el. the stage driver was far differ ent from his modern prototype, the automobile mail carrier
 Last summer the postoffice depart ment authorized the carrying of mail to Fairbanks on the SOO-mile trail from Valdez by automobile. Hlll and two associates took the contract and carried the mails through in fine shape and now the postofiice offic- lals in Alaska believe that all Of the interior mail next year will be routed over the overland trail.
 Hill wore out three cars on the run in making twenty-five trips over miles and established a record of forty.one hours for covering the dis tacne between the two terminals. This time has never been equalled.
 There is no auto route in the world that begins to compare with the Valdez.Fairbanks trail" Hill de- clared yesterday "The trail goes through a real paradise, both of scen- cry and game. have shot lynx, fox, moose. caribou and sheep without getting out of my car and have seen red foxes galore One trip out of Fairbanks we saw black fox from the car
 "The Alaska Road Commission has charge of the trail and is doing all in it's power to improve 1t. Next year 1t should be possible to make the trip over the trail to Fairbanks in the space of thirty-six hours"
 Mir. Hill is planning an automobile trip across the Southwest and then across the continent to New York before returning to his home in Val dez.

Mushino Record

Long distance "mughing" records for the season in Southwestern Al aska go to a guard in the employ of the United States marshals office according to C. W. MossmGn, deputy marshal from Valdez who is at The Frye, says the Seattle P.I., Nov. 26. The feat, which involved traveiing from a remote settlement near the mouth of the little known Kusko- kwim river, by land and water to Valdez, Mir. Mossmcn considers most remarkable because it was made by the guard with an insane Indian in his charge.
 Leaving Bethel the head of navi- gation for ocean vessels on the Kus- kokwim. the guard and his charge took passage on the little cannery steamer. The boat stopped at Nush- agak and also at other smaller can nery points.
 At Harrington the guard and his demented patient disembarked and started mush overland. which took them to another bay, on the South ern side of the Alaska Peninsula. From this point they took a small open boat for Sand Point. At Sand Point they waited for over a week and then embarked for Prince Will liam Sound ports on the little steam CT Dora.
 Mir. Mossman brought out three de- mented persons from the North and took them to the Morningside asylum at Portland He is now on his way back north.

 Fries Says "0.-K."
 Mayor stewart stated that c. w.. Fries was unable to be present but has asked him to state to the council that he favored the pur- chase and if any of the councilmen desired they could call him up at his residence and he would con firm his statements over the tele- phone.
 Empire Articles Presented.
 Mayor Stewart then presented copies of The Empire containing his articles on the question and containing the data and figures as to the valuation and earnings of the plant and asked that they be filed.
 Mayor Stewart stated that Mir. Lewis was acting as one of the head officials for the Guggenheim company and had stated that he had many chances to invest his money to better advantage than the Juneau water system and that was his only reason for selling. Fries has stated to the Mayor, when the option was delivered. that he had been reyiled by the citi- zens. but the only reason the wa ter system had been allowed to run down was that he was so busy he did not pay much attention to the reports and did not realize how the city had grown and did not realize the condition of the system until last spring when he visited Juneau in person.
