FRANK 6. CARPENTER SAYS SOMETHING NICE
 ABOUT ALASKA

Regarding Alaska and the opinions of Frank c. Carpenter as to it's be- ing a travel land, the following ap- pears on March 5th in the Seattle Post Intelligencer
 Frank G. Carpenter, correspondent of leading American newspapers hay ing a combined circulation of more than 5.000,O0O, in an article published recently on Alaskas coming semi centennial celebration, which is being planned by the Alaska bureau of the Seattle Chamber of Commerce Club, said:
 This celebration of an event of national importance will be held in a unique manner, each town featuring the the industries and resources of it's locality, making it m effect an all- Alaska celebration. The participating party is being organized by the Alaska bureau of the Seattle Chamber of Commerce and Commercial Club

and will be personally conducted by veteran sourdough.' The towns are planning to hold celebrations of from one to three days duration"
 In closing MT. Carpenter says:-
 Scenic Grandeur.
 This itinerary gives but little idea of the wonders of the Alaska exposi- tion. In addition to the industrial features will be the scenic grandeur of the inside passage, surpassing that of the thousand islands of the St. Law renee. the inland sea of Japan and the fords of Norway. There will be the wonders of the Yukon, the following from it's source to it's mouth of one of the mtghtiest rivers of our continent going through a wilderness which, in most places, is as untouched and un- described as was the James river and the Chesapeake bay before Captain John Smith came into Hampton Roads. It will include the sight of mountains

 Great River of Ice.
 'In both excursions the ships will sail right under the great river of ice which breaks out into the sea at Taku; and at Cordova the cars take the travellers to two glaciers, each of which Is as high as the dome of the capitol at Washington. There will also be the fascination of the Eskimos and the Indians, of seeing game, large and small, in it's native wlds, of the wonders of the midnight sun and of the new world of vegetation and sky and sea which is peculiar to the Far North. ."-Exchange

 The total of the appropriation bills of the territory amount to $S75,000, not including the general appropriation measure for territorial expenses or schools. which, it is estimated, will run in the. neighborhood of $6o0,O0O, making the grand total approximately million and a half. The members are apparently appropriation crazy, almost all trying fo get funds for some pet scheme

 II seems that both houses of con- gross have passed a railroad approp- iiation measure of some kind giving the Engineering commission a goodly amount with which to continue work on the railroad during the summer. It is understood, however, that one of the bills passed was for $10,500,000 and the other for $7,500,000 and that the item is now being considered by a confer ence committee of both houes.

AVALANCHE OF ENTRIES

Cincinnati, May 1S--A positive avail.
anche Of entries descended upon the
ofhcials OF the Cincinnati Speedway
during the past few days, justifylne
1.-THE prediction that the field which will
face the flag on Decoration Day, May
30, In the Second Annual International
Sweepstakes race, will be as large and
classy as any that will start in a
championship race this year.
With the race nearly two weeks off,
and the qualification trials set for
next Saturday, the list OF entrants al
ready embraces practically all the
noted drivers who will race on the
various big tracks this season, this
gathering being really the first com
prehensive convention of speed kings
in 1917.
TO date a total of thirty cars have
been entered in the race, with drivers
named for a great majority of them.
OF the better known speedway stars
who already are on the ground and
driving their machines around the
two-mile course daily are Billy Taylor,
winner Of the Universal Trophy at
uniontown, Pa, on May 10; Barney
Oldfield. Earl Cooper, Louis Fontaine,
who did the local track some days ago
at the rate of 116 miles an hour:
Ady Burt, Dave Lewis, Ralph DePal-
ma, Ira Vail, Ralph milford, Eddie
Hearne, Pete Henderson, Joe Thomas
Walter Haines, Omar Taft, Louis
chevrolet, George Buzane, Jack Le
Cain, Jules De Vigne, Otto Leisy. Jr..
Billy Chandler and the ever-popular
Eddie Rickenbacher. There is every
reason to believe that the list of driv-
ers and cars will be augmented be-
fore next Saturday, when the trial
races. calling for minimum speed Of
10 miles an hour. will take place.
Entries for the three non-profes-
sional races, which will precedc the
main event, also are exceeding expec-
tations, and there will be more than
the required number of starters in
each Of these events.
Additional zest is given the 25O-mile
championship race by the addition of
$4,000 to the purse of $4,000 already
'ffered by the Speedway management.
This amount is subscribed by promi-
lent tire manufacturing concern and
Will be divided among the first three
lrivers to finish, the winner receiv-
