GOVERNMENT RAILROAD
 TO BE COMPLETED IN 19l3

SEWARD, Sept 14.-The summer of 1919 probably will see the opening to traffic of the new United States railway frorn Sew ard to Fairbanks, according to William E. Edes, chairman of the Alaska engineering commission, who has just completed an in spection of the construction situation on this portion of the proposed line. Chair man Edes recently departed for Fairbanks to make an inspection at that end. He was accompanied by J. P. Cotton, attorney for the railway.
 While DO announcement has been made it is understood that Chairman Edes while at Fairbanks, will look into the question of purchasing the narrow-gauge hne now op- ersting out of Fairbanks to the mines. It is proposed to supply fuel for further min erat developmeDts in that section of the territory.
 The line from Seward to Kern creek and Turnagain arm, and from Anchorage to a few miles north of Matanuska junction, on the new division will soon be open, and about fifteen miles of steel viii be laid south of Anchorage toward connecting with the coast section.
 Experience has taught the engineers that it is good thing to have a right of way cleared one season in advance of ali work. Clearing away the trees gives the sun 8 chance at the ground and takes the frost out of the cleared sections month earlier than where the spruce forest still stands.
 For this reason clearing gangs are busy cutting along the line from Matanuska junction to Talkeetna and beyond on the way tip the Susitna valley toward Broad pass A section of the division will be completed before the frost comes, but there will be long stretch ready for early work in 1917, during which the clearing will be pushed on to the pass.
 The coal field branch line from Mata nuska will be kept open during the winter to provide fuel for construction work along Turnagain arm, which, being in hard rock, can be handled without regard to the frost

HUGHES OR WILSON?
ROOSEVELT'S ANSWER

Against Mr.. Wilson's COM
binatiOn of grace in elocution
with futility in action; against
his record of words unbacked by
deeds or betrayed by deeds, we
see Mr.. Hughes rugged and I'M
compromising straightforward
ness of character and action in
every Office he has held. We
put the man who thinks and
speaks directly, and whose
words have always been made
good, against the man whose
adroit and facile elocution Is
used to conceal his plans or his
want Of plans. The next four
years may well be years Of ire
mendous national strain. Which
of the two men do you, the
American people, wish at the
uelm during these four years;
the man who has been actually
9ried and found wanting, or the
man whose whole career In pub
lie Office is guarantee Of his
power and good faith? But one
answer is possible; and 1t must
be given by the American people
through the election Of Charles
Evans Hughes as President of
the United States. "-RooseveIt

Soon after Mr.. Hughes was nomi-
mated friend said to him: Governor,
If the American people forget the Mexi-
| can disgrace they do not deserve to
have you for President" Quick as a
flash he replied: 'The candidate who
lodges the Mexican disgrace does not
deserve to be President" He did not
pass around his address of acceptance
| for compliment or criticism in adj
vance of its delivery but the amount
of space he devoted to the Mexican
dlsgrace-"that confused chapter of
lunders"-surprised no one who had
talked with him since his nomination.
It has been in his mind and on his
mind more than any other single prob
lem with which Mr.. Wilson has pal
tered. To talk with him Is to see at once
the reality of his indignation over the
heartless manner In which American
men, women and children, American
citizens, soldiers and sailors have been
abandoned by the Administration along
and across the Rio Grande, the vic
tins Of Mexican armed forces, outfit
ted with American ammunition and
American rifles, Mexicans whom Mr.
Wilson has coddled one day as pa
tr1ots only to chase the next as
bandits.
1t is apparently the belief of Mr..
Wilson that the people of the United
States are not interested in Mexico.
His defenders have declared that 1t
was on "old story and out of date"
Mr.. Hughes has better opinion of his
fellow countrymen. He has proved
himself better judge Of their feelings.
He has made "the Mexican disgrace"
a foremost issue Of his campaign. He
has assailed the record of the Admin

every speech he has made. He has new

people of that section than Mr.
Hughes. He holds them responsible

with conscripting him as the cham
