PHONE RATES REMAIN SAME:
 GREEKS PAY
OLD RATES ARE TO CONTINUE, BUT CREEK SUBSCRIBERS
 MUST PAY TOLLS.

Last night a resolution was adopt ed by the city council wherein the present telephone rates were con tinued. This decision was reac ched when the telephone company prom ised to discontinue the unlimited ser vice to Waechter Bros, Samson Hardware Co.,, E. R. Peoples, Inc, and the N. C. Co. The telephone company made ruling that after the first of the month all non-sub- scribers of telephones must pay tolls
 George Smith, of the city council, for them, as the present system worked an injustice on the other merchants in the city. Under the present system the non subscribers to phones on the creeks might tele- phone to those firms without pay ing tolls. If they wished to talk to any other merchant they must pay toll. Under the new ruling the merchants will be on an equal basis, for tolls will be charged, no matter to whom they talk.
 Interviewed on the subject of tele phone rates, Howard Merritt, gen eral manager of the Fairbanks Tele- phone company, stated in part as follows:
 ''At a meeting with the special committee, appointed by the council, all complaints and grievances were thoroughly considered and satisfac- torily adjusted to all parties con- cerned The company has decided to discontinue that class of service, now known as universal or un- limited service. This service, which is now being furnished to the firms of Waechter Bros, Samson Hard ware Co.,, k. R. Peoples, Inc, and the N. c. Co.,, permitting non-sub- scribers to call them without toll charges, will be discontinued on Oc- lODeE llTSl. He regular Hat Idlt service, which is unlimited in it's number of calls to all stations with out toll charge, will be furnished to those subscribers desiring it and at a reduced rate. The flat rate that has formerly been quoted at $6O per month, will be quoted at $50 on and after Oct. 1st.
 "The company further announces that it's creek subscribers will be given unlimited service to the town and to all creek points. No tolls will be charged the regular creek subscribers, for messages pertaining strictly to their business, to any of the creek or town stations. The call system, existing heretofore, will be discontinued to all parties, and the company will not accept calls under any circumstances, from either it's town or creek subscribers, unless a bona-fide messenger is sent for the party desired"

GIRLS CANNOT
 BE PLACED IN
 OUTSIDE SCHOOL
COURT HAS NO JURIS- O1CTION IN CASES OF
 INDIAN GIRLS.

That the territorial juvenile court has no jurisdiction in the case of any other than white children in the matter of looking after deln- quent minors was the decision re gently rendered by Territorial At torney J. H. Cobb. according to the statement made by District Attorney R. F. Roth last evening On the other hand. the Indian schools of the Outside cannot take in children of Indian blood other than those who have participated in tribal re lations as ordinary natives
 All of this MT Roth has ascer- tained through his efforts to have the two half-breed girls who figured so prominently in the sensational cases tried here last spring placed in schools on the Outside. And he is still trying to place them, al though, since he received refusal to take the girls from the superin- tendent of the Chemawa Indian School, near Salem, Oregon, he has turned the matter over to the attor- ney general of the United States The result is that the attorney gen eral, according to the last communi- cation received by MT. Roth, is try ing to place the girls in a private school.
 The case of these two girls, in way, is very pitiable. For, while under the laws of the territory of Alaska they are not classed as white girls, still they cannot enter Indian schools on the Outside, on account of the fact that the government does not consider them natives.
 One of the girls is still here in Fairbanks. The other, Grace Carey, has gone Outside 10 relatives of her father in Salem, Oregon, under the chaperonage of Mrs. Albrecht of Iditarod. She is now in Oregon according to what MT. Roth has learned and is being well cared for and sent to school.

Moss, niggerheads. mud and frozen ground have been the obstacles that the engineers have had to combat on the Fairbanks end of the govern ment railroad. Nevertheless, the right-ofway now presents busy scene. There has been, too, a con siderable loss of time due to short age of men and materials This is being rapidly remedied The engi- neers consider that great progress has been made. and plan on very large operations next year. Camps had to be equipped and built. Thus most of the time this year has been in tn" nature of a preparation for next season.
 owing to the late start this sum mer, only small amount of grad ing has been possible on the Fair banks end of the government rail road. On the Happy residency, eight miles from Fairbanks, the con tractors have been working on the first three miles toward Nenana. A mile and a half will be finished by the end of the season, and a mile more will be nearly completed. Eight and a half miles have been cleared, grubbed and stripped. A contract has been let and work begun on a section of ten miles more The commission found it necessary to build wagon road for the con tractors. This has been completed six miles below Happy. The en- gineers plan to carry it to Nugget creek. eight miles from Happy, and there connect with the winter trail by the end of the season. In all the commission will spend about $50,000 on the Fairbanks end. This ments of the government from the Outside
 No grubbing or stripping was done except by the grading contractors on the grading that was let this year. However, all the ground be- yond the present contracts is be ing stripped by the contractors hold ing the clearing contracts. They strip the moss off the borrow pits, as well. BeauChaine X Co. and Runquist & Co. have a few weeks works left. Wilson has just begun his new ten-mile clearing contract. This should give the grading con tractors a good start next year, as it leaves the ground in good condi- ton for nearly sixteen miles be- yond the present grading contracts.
 About a hundred men are work ing along the right-of-way. The grading contractors will probably

s Real Reason
 For Not Coming In

A recent arrival in Fairbanks on the same mail automobile with J. H. Cobb, the independent candi- date for territorial attorney general, tells the real reason for MT. Cobbs turning back. It was not that he had to return to Juneau on account of official business, as was stated here, the fact of the matter being that he had one of his feet run over while working with the other pas sengers pushing the automobile out of one of he mudholes, the result being that he was scarcely able to walk The territorial attorney there fore decided that he would not at tempt to come to Fairbanks, as he would be in no condition for the speaking tour he contemplated.
 The inbound trip of the mail stage was fearful one, according to all reports. The passengers were con- pelled to "siwash" out one night without anything to eat In fact, they were compelled to stay in one place for something like 36 hours.
 It was after he had had that ex perience that MT Cobb decided to return to Juneau. For during that 36 hours he had nothing to eat ex- cept what was brought to him from a five-mile distant roadhouse by one of his fellow passengers, owing to his inability to walk to the road bouSa

School is Ready to
 Give Manual Training

Sometime today the benches for manual training in the Fairbanks schools will be ready for business. Thus the school board has made another step in their efforts to make the Fairbanks schools the equal of those on the Outside. These bench es will make it possible for those students who are interested in us- ing their hands to do something along their line.
 The work will be mostly that of carpentry The students will also learn how to handle their tools and keep them in shape for work. The students are enthusiastic over the new course The enrolment in the courses will tax the equipment of the school.

Tie Up Your Dog;
 Tree Didn Resign

The question of the resignation of George Tree, the poundmaster, came up before the meeting of the city council last night. MT. Tree had some difficulty with two of the city officials The misunderstanding was adjusted, and Mir Tree is still on the job.
 The city fathers took the oppor tunity to compliment MT. Tree on the fine work he has done while acting in his official capacity. MT. Ray, of the city council, said that the town had never been so free of dogs since he had been in it. The rest of the council concurred in the sentiment.

Officers Chosen For
 Territorial Election

Election officers for the terri torial election in November were selected at the meeting of the city council held last night. The judges appointed were Wm. Butler, Frank Boarman and Frank Mcdonald. The clerks chosen were Joe Heacock and E. H. Boyer.
 Several women were spoken of in connection with the appointments. The sentiment of the council was that they would not know the voters as well as the men would. Under the new law there is no registra ton before election At the polls a thorough acquaintance with the individual voters necessary to the officers of election.
 Mir Ross B. Watkins, who owns the new hydraulic plant on Slate creek, is in town for a few days. He intends to leave on the first down river boat to look after his interests in Ruby. He expects to return to Fairbanks in two or three weeks time. He will probably go Outside for the winter.

PERRY OUT FOR NATIONAL
DEMOCRATIC COMMITTEEMAN


Prominent democrats throughout
North Dakota are boosting for i. II.
Perry Of Glendale for national COM
mitteeman. Mr.. Perry is at present
chairman of the Democratic State
Central committee and has a large
circle of friends in the state. The
following clipping from the Ellen
dale Leader will prove of interest:
ut looks as though the democrats
were hoping for another party VIC
tory this year. Everybody knows
that John Burke makes a special
study Of the psychology of politics,
and they "dew tell. as how" Honest
John is in the receptive mood for.
congressional honors. And then.
again the democrats that want a per-
fectly square party deal in the dis
tribution of patronage, are enthusi-.
astically supporting Heck Perry. for
Democratic National Committeeman.
If the democrats want a united and
fighting organization that can put
things across" they can do M better
than take counsel Of Perry's political
advices. This man Perry is a live
wire when it comes to politics. We
know, because this paper has enjoyed
the e%xhilaration Of more than N
political battle with the old North
Dakota Record when Heck Perry,in
its columns, fought through many a
losing battle to final victory in the
election of John Burk to the COVER
norship. But we will say this: He's
the squarest political opponent or the
staunchest political friend, according
to ones viewpoint in politics, to be
found in that enticing game. -Four
years ago Mr.. Perry was a candidate
in the field of six for the same po-
| sition. AT that time the democrats
of Dickey county gave him a vote Of
$50 against AZ for all other candi-
dates-by far the best endorsement
accorded to any of the contestants
in their home county. MI. Perry has
been in Dickey county for % years,
where he has won his way to bust
ness success as a newspaper man, as
lawyer, and as owner Of large farm
ing interests throughout the county.
AS a politician he is shrewd and re-
sourceful, with a faculty at organiza-
ton that even the republicans admit
is superb. Without pinning the faith
of The Leader to the horoscope Of
a democratic success; we r sure his
party can make no selection of a ma
tional committeeman with more real
political merit in it than would be
its choice of H. H. Perry Of Ellen
dale"
