REPRESENTATIVE
 OF UNION HERE
IS MAKING THE ROUND TO
 HAVE FISHERMEN SIGN UP.

Mir. Garnett Olson, of Seattle, rep resenting the Seattle Deep Water Fisherman's Union, who went on a strike short time ago, arrived in town last evening from the north where he went to have fishermen sign up the agreement to force a settlement.
 MT. Olsen reports a successful trip, in that he secured the sigma lures of members of several crews.
 When he was asked the cause of the strike, MT. Olsen said that heretofore, boat owners and fishing companies have been getting one fifth of the gross profits as a share for the investment involved. But that in the renewal of gears, such as nets, etc, the companies have refused to contribute their share in the expense thus incurred, and that the whole burden was thrown on the crew. This is considered unfair and after repeated appeal to the boat owners and others without re- suits. the union decided to resort to a strike.

VILLA WILL BE H.tkn TO
 CATCH.

WASHINGTON, March 21.-offi- icials here say that one of the diff faculties in catching Villa will be the superiority of his mounts. It is said that his horses in his com mand which himself and his men ride over Mexico are race horses. The fugitive chief has made a prac- tice of seizing or buying outright the finest horses available.
 Another problem lies in the fact that through fear or ignorance the Mexicans residing in country re- gions of Chihuahua give consider able allegiance to Villa. In the cities it is considered the Carranza sentiment is dominant, but Villa is stronger in rural regions.

IF INTEREST
 TO ALASKANS RULES AND REGULATIONS AS PRESCRIBED BY THE
 DEPARTMENT.
RAILROAD TOWNSHIP
Forfeiture of Lots For Various
 Breach of Regulations.

Much has been said by divers parties returning from Anchorage the last six months about the safes of railroad town-site lots by gov ernment officials. In some instances some misrepresentation have been made that put officials in the wrong light. As some are prone to im- pute ill-motives or government mon- opoly, the ProgresSive-M Miner finally secured copies of the rules and regu- lations promulgated by the depart ment which are reproduced in parts to the end that in the event some of our readers contemplate invest ment, may be informed of the con- ditions attached to the sales of those lots by the government. Some of the principal features fol- low:
 Executive Order Regulations.
 RESERVATIONS: The Alaska Engineering Commission will file with the Secretary of the Interior, when deemed necessary, its recom- mendations for the reservation of such areas as in it's opinion may be needed for townsite purposes. The Secretary of the Interior will thereuposn transmit such recommend ations to the President with his objections thereto or concurrence herewith. If approved by the President, the reservation will be made by Executive Order.
 SURVEY: When in the opinion o.f the President the public interests require a survey of any such reser- vati on, the Secretary of the Inter for shall cause to be set aside such portions for railroad purposes as may be selected by the Alaskan En- gineering Commission, and cause the remainder, or a part thereof, to be surveyed into urban or suburban blocks and lots of suitable size, and into reservations for parks, schools, and other public purposes and for government use. Highways should be laid out, where practica- ble, all along shore lines, and suffi- cient land for dock and wharf pur- poses along such shore lines should be reserved in such places as there is any apparent necessity therefor
 PUBLIC SALE: The unreserved lots will be offered at public outcry to the highest bidder at such time and place, and after such publica- ton of notice, if any, as the Secre- tary of the Interior may diree4 and he may appoint or detail some suitable person as Superintendent of the Safe to supervise the same. and may fix his compensation and require him to give sufficient bond
 SUPERINTENDENT'S AUTHOR ITy: Under the supervision of the Secretary of the Interior, the Super intendent of the Sale will be, and he is hereby authorized to make all

PICKLE PUBLIC.

It's mighty hard to please the whole of the people. However careful one may be, some one will be displeased. For instance, just because the reporter failed to men ton that a certain young man had sung solo at a gathering-and between you and the rest, he can't sing for sour apples-and his name was not mentioned, the reporter got dickens this morning and had to lie like sixty to get away with his whole skin. Now, what do you think of that? Isn't that the limit ? It sure is.
