ROWLING WOLVES
 * SCARE SKAGWAY

Though a social center for it's size and noted for it's horticultural exhi- bits and the beauty of its women, as we'll as tourist attractions, not to mention the gentle zephyrs which sometimes lift off it's roofs, Skagway is still surrounded by the primeval wilderness. The peaceful folks sitting quietly by their inglenooks are dis turbed by the fierce bowling of hun gry wolves.
 In fact, no less an authority than the Skagway Alaskan says 50 in the following:
 "To Herbert shearer must so the laurel for having been the first to bag one of the wolves that have been making night hideous by their dismal howlings and between howls throw ing the scare into the townspeople to such an extent that they have feared to roam from their own fireside."
 "The successful hunter after laying in wait for the past several nights near seaman's barn; had his patience rewarded at about 1880 o'clock this morning when a pack of four of these brutes stole cautiously into view of the alert Herbert. When the smoke of the battle cleared away one of the band lay stin and stark. It weighed about 60 pounds.''

URGES ENLARGEMENT
 0F NATIONAL GUARD
Chairman Hay Proposed to President Plan for Increasing the Mili-
 tary Strength of II. q.

WASHINGTON, D. C., Jan. 12.- Chairman Hay of the House N-.A,ary Committee, today suggested to Pres ident Wilson as a means of increas- ing the military strength of the coun- try in lieu of the several plans for this purpose that have been proposed, that the increase in trained men might be obtained by strengthening the national guard organizations of the several states instead of estab- fishing a large national army.
 He urged that by this method the |expense to the government would be but a tithe of that entailed by a na- tional army, and was possessed of a number of other advantageous feat ures.

POSTOFFICE IS NOW
 READY FOR OCCUPANCY

Contractor Sam McNiece states the work on the new postoffice has been completed, the boxes and other equip ment having been placed in position and ready for use. The interior painting has just been finished and es soon as this is dry the building will be ready for occupancy. It is ex- pected that Postmaster Jefferson will move within a day or two and that the mail from the next steamer will be distributed from the new quar- ters.
 Postmaster Jefferson has had a hard time in keeping up his efficient service since the big fire in July. At first he was compelled to move into one room of dwelling house, and handle the mails from a small room at times seventy to one hundred sacks of mail being received and handled in these small quarters. Later, he removed to store build ing, where he had a little more room but inferior accommodations.
 The new office will give him plenty |of room and good comfortable quar- ters for himself and clerks.
 The new building Is provided with every convenience, including janitor and heat, so our genial Postmaster can have it much easier between |h0ata

Soldiers Buying Discharges

An order was issued at Fort Sam Housing granting the discharge from the army by purchase of 22 enlisted men sergeants, corporals and pri' yates. A man on his first enlistment must put up $120 to ''buy out" and must submit papers showing that he "can better himself on the outside. '
 Discharge by purchase has been remarkably heavy within the last few months in the southern depart ment. This Is considered by officers to be the result of the general un' rest felt by men in border service.

DRAIN NO. is.

The complete report of the financial
statutes of Dram No. 16 situated in Car.
Isle and Hamilton townships given us
by Auditor Feison will not only be Of
value to those who were taxed for that
drain but to others who have such drains
in prospect.
We are not intending to critlcise the
cost OF construction of this particular
drain, but the fact remains as shown
not only in his drain but in all others in
which the figures have been given to the
public, that the actual work of the ex.
cavation is generally proportionately
small compared with other items of ex.
pense.
The average public drain as construct.
ed in this level country is but little
larger. and often no larger, than the
average highway ditch. Graded high.
ways are built with drains on two sides
for from $50 to 300 per mile. Com.
pare this cost with the cost for the
county drain.
We need drainage. We need compre.
hensive and connected drain systems.
But the farmers better build their own
bitches by private communities and thus
save lot Of money.

When the Democrats took the Tariff
Of Of leather to make the shoe and har-
ness cheaper. they did great thing for
the country, for the fact is demonstrated
lin the continued increase Of the price Of
shoes aud harness. That is where the
proof gets into the pudding. And now
comes the manufacturers with the state
ment that another advance in snoes
must be expected. Leather of all kinds,
they, say has gone up. Shoes must 20
up, too. As matter Of course, they
can't stay down when the Democrats
give US free hides and take the Tariff
of of all kinds of leather.
