SFWARD'S GOVT. RAILROAD PAYROLL ALONE IS NOW
 NEARLY FIFTY THOUSAND DOLLARS PER MONI1
OVER I2,OOO,OOO Fl. OF LUMBER USED
 ON RR. FROM HERE 10 MAVANUSkA

The payroll on the government railroad work at Sew- ard alone amounts to between forty thousand dollars and fifty thousand dollars month The amount of local lumber used on the government railroad work between Seward and Matanuska lumber from the Chugach forest up to the present is more than twelve million feet and seventv-fve million feet has been designated from the same forest for the future of the Engineering Com mission.
 These facts are contained in special writeps prepaI- ed for the All-Alaska Review by Andrew Christensen, manager of the land department of the Engineering Com mission, and by Arthur C. Ringland, an able member ol the Forestry service The statements will appear in full in the issue of the Review which will be run off the presses next Sunday.
 In the past couple of days the Forest department has received an additional $500 for the improvement of the Kenai road and big work is contemplated in the district adjacent to Seward In addition to the above facts many others have been learned through the courtesy o the oi hcias mentioned here For instance before the work of reiuvenation is completed two hundred thousand ties will be laid between Seward and Mile IT, and from all the tmb CT sold from the forest 35 per cent comes back to the terri tory for improvements and one of the results will be the spending of very large sums Seward in the future

PEOPLE DISGUSTED WITH
 CHANGE OF TIME ALREADY

Already few people have changed their time back to the old time after thinking it over. It has dawned on them that they got fooled by the idea that the people who signed a petition really wanted a change of time when the petition was really signed because "very charming personality pre- sented the petition. If that petition had been to set fire to the railroad or or some other building it would have been signed just the same. You can have any petition signed. BuJ the result is that Seward is isolated so far as time is concerned The adop- ton of the new time by the railroad presumably now means that a tele- graph message sent from Seward would reach Anchorage about an hour before it was sent. The steamships maintain the same old time and refuse like the railroads running into Seat tie to change. Seattle quit the crazy idea. One result of the change for the past two days is that men, especi- ally those working on the railroad, have to get up in the darkness, so bringing winter before it's time. Many business people this morning expressed their disgust at the insane alteration but are forced by the change of time on the railroad to live up to it so that the time for trains etc, might be kept.
 Seward is now like some animal that is being disgustedly led by the nose.

PREMIER OF GREECE RESIGNS AND
 QUICK ACTION IS LOOKED FOR
WHAT INVASION MEANS

LONDON, Oct. 3.-AII military men this morning are pointing out that the invasion of Bulgaria by the Roman lans has double strategic value. The entry of Bulgarian territory that point the Danube means working from the fortified bases of Rustchuk and Tutkai where the Danube turns northeastward. It opens ninety miles move all the way to Yarna the principal Bulgarian port on the Black sea- The invasion here also threatens the isolation of the Germans Turks and Bugarans who are fighting the RoumanianS to the north in DobrudJa and may compel their retirement from Roumanan territory. All the military experts seem to expect however that Germany will realize the seriousness of these facts and make herculean efforts to thWart the move.

Forty Eight Bldg.
 Permits in Quarter
Work on Fifth Avenue Will be by
 Contract Not Direct Labor.

OOnlfaCl NOt DlItCt h"b"l'
 City Clerk Otto Poehlmann reported at last nights meeting of the city council that forty-eight building per- mits have been issued by him for the quarter beginning July 1 and ending September 30. The council also de- cided last night to grade Fifth avenue between Adams and the bridge by contract and not by day labor direct as had previously been decided. Th', was done after a protest against di- rect labor by Judge Morford, for the Dickerman estate, who declared that such a method was always indefinite. This gave Mir. Chamberlain the covet- ed opportunity to express his opinion about absentee property owners, un- earned increments and the like but Al is a good fellow and his friends would like to see him less of radi- cal-lcss an enemy of horrible and predatory wealth. 1t was Mir. Cham berlain also who blocked the payment of ST for the improvement out ,f the general funds of the alley way be- tween Councilman Dougherty's post office building and Councilman Dough erty's private office. The matter was laid over. In addition to Mir. Cham berlains rather tropical remarks there was quite a tiff when Mr. Tomey pro- posed to cut off $4l from the bill of Mr. Henry Fathers for his work in painting the school. This was for extra work and Acting Mayor Sauers pointed out that Mir. Fathers did the work for $500 less than the next bid der offered to do it for. The tiff came when Mr. Fathers asked Mir. Torrey what he meant by telling him, Fath- CTS, that he could settle the matter by coming to see him, Torrey. Mr. Tor rey took exception to this statement and warmly protested that what he meant was that they could go over the work and come to a satisfactory agreement. There were so many lit tie scenes last night that His Honor the acting mayor, Mir. Sauers, want ed to know who the blank called up on the phone and said the meeting would last only few minutes. Another lit tie hitch came from the fact that it was pointed out that Nightwatchman Emsweiler had been put to work near lv a month earlier than usual but it was stated that Mayor Myers had in- structed that this be done and also that he had aided in making arrests when badly needed; also that the money brought in by fines paid the salary. But one could hardly escape the feeling tha some members of the council were suspicious of favoritism. Councilman Graef incidentally hinted that he had recently got touched" for $35 worth of material.
 But the big work done was the pur- chase of six and a half acres of ground from James Stewart on the Martin hoBmestead for a cemetery. It was found after prospecting that the ground was very favorable for the purpose. The price paid was $1OO an acre. During the discussion Mir. Chamberlain made moving appeals in behalf of the dead who died broke. He hinted openly that Acting Mayor Sauers need not care for $2O or so for extra burial expenses but in his own case it was different. Mir. Sauers was evidently touched and assured Mir. Chamberlain that if he died his hal lowed remains would not be let deco

Zinc Has Bio Place In War.

Zinc is so essential in wartime that
It has risen enormously In price in the
past year. Costing originally only
two-ffths as much as copper, it now
costs decidedly more than copper. in
spite of the fact that copper itself has
sharply increased in value.
Zinc is q constituent of cartridge
brass and shell-fuses. and is used also
as a covering for iron barbed wire
fencing. In 1918 the United States,
Germany and Belgium were the lead
ing producers Of zinc.
OF the three, only the United States
smelted domestic ores. Belgium and
Germany relied mainly on zinc con.
centrates that they imported from the
Broken Hill mines in New South
Wales, where, for one reason and an.
other, it does not pay to do the smelt-
ing. France, Spain and Great Brit.
ain also produce substantial quantities.
but not enough to supply their own
needs.
Austria and Germany have consider.
able deposits of ore In Silesia. Hun
gary, Carinthia and the Tyrol. AS the
zinc-smelting furnaces of Great Brit
ain are not well adapted for dealing
with the Broken Hill concentrates 1t
buys the bulk of its supplies from the
United States.

GOOD REPORT
Doctor Proved Value of Postum.

Physicians know that good food and
drink, properly selected. are Of the ut

Coffee was banished from my own

contains the subtle, poisonous drug,

that it is properly made according to
directions, then it has a clear, seal.
brown color and rich, snappy taste,
as we'll as health giving qualities.
The above letter, received over ten
years ago, is fully confirmed by re-
cent letter from the doctor, In which
he says:
1T is a pleasure to render good
report covering a product OF which !
am so enthusiastic a friend.
Il am using in my home your Pos
tum Cereal in both its forms. And,
what is more am having it used in
the families Of several patients in
which there are children, and all unite

Postum comes in two forms:
