It is practically conceded that for the present the Solomon River rail road will not be torn up as far as Ruby, but that from Ruby to Pene- lope such of it as is laid will be pulled up and shipped out, probably not this fall The wrecking inter- ests have about been persuaded that there will be more money operating the road for some time yet owing to the ireighting demands of the dred- gcs and mines than in tearing up and shipping out the road. It is said that there is good prospect of a dredap being placed upon solomon river above East Forks and another on Big Hurrah, on both of which sections drilling crews have been at work testing the ground for this very purpose. These will need con siderable supplies and there will be profitable freighting to be done which may give the road little
  the constantly recurring reports that the Big Hurrah mine may be opened will not down. They crop up again and again and are believed by eX- cellent authorities on the matter as highly probable. One man who does not profess to know anything on the subject said however that 1t is little short of scandalous the way the machinery and property in and around the mine has been allowed to go to wreck and ruin The smokestacks have in one instance fallen through the roof and opened valuable machinery to wind ana weather, causing almost irreparable loss.

Here's new one. It is not vouched for although it is told by one who would not have the slight est hesitation in putting the Stand
 ard Oil on the bum if the new fuel oil would be sufficiently available to do so E,Xperimenters have proved that seal oil, the beloved of the na
 tive palate, possesses a greater eX- plosive and expansion power than any other oil upon combustion and the force of it's explosion when en- closed is better than any other mo- tor spirit in existence. Tests have shown that a minimum of the oil will perform maximum of work and that one dredge man is even considering the proposition of ap- plying it to active service in an in- ternal combustion engine of such a type as will be adapted for this pur- pose Indeed it is declared that al ready preliminary tests of the seal oil motor spirit proves that it is not only valuable but is superior 10 all others. It's main objection is that the oil is not very plentiful and in these days of food conservation strong objection may be made to it's use. K0N kow conservation woGd !ook ashance at its being used for %n intorl"l combustioi service.

The first explanation given of the suspension of the night letter sre- vice comes on the last mail. It was wholly due to the eXigencies created by the war situation when fourteen men of the r. s. Signal Corps were given promotion to the 5Nmmissi0n- ed ranks and sent outside. Most of these were taken from Sitka, the main station of the Alaska govern ment cable and radio system, and on this account it was found imposs- ible to handle all the matter coming through with the depleted staff. It is about all the men can handle to cover the regular commercial and press service without having the night letters congestion piled on top of them.
