Steady progress is the keynote of
last week in O'Brien county crops. The
good moderate rains, warmer weather
and advancing season that brings as
surance of freedom from frost have
combined in speeding farm and garden
work. Corn planting has been going
on generally. small grain IS thriving ana
hay and pasture lands are appearing
better. The season is in advance of
last season, and probably well up tow
ards the average good season. The
hard wind of the middle of last week
drove the dirt pretty ferceiy over the
growing small grain, but it is believed
little damage was done. The hail seems

sixty showing an increase. These
figures are encouraging in view of the
high price of meat and the scarcity of

Dubuque May 24.--Whie the present
season WIN find little traffic on the
Mississippi, a revival of the old river
days is expected next summer when
the government emergency fleet cor
poration expects to operate ut least
some of the boats for which contracts
have been let.
The Dubuque Boat and Boiler Works
announced yesterday that contracts for
the construction OF six giant steel
barges for the feet corporation had
been received and that work would
commence as soon as the two coast
guard ships. now under construction at
the local plant were off the ways. This
is expected to be accomplished within
two months, altho the boats Will not be
finally completed until navigation opens
next spring. Delay in supplying the
craft with engines will make it impos-
sible to deliver the boats until that
time.
To Relieve Rail Congestion.
The six steel barges. which will be
geston. will be 800 feet long and As
feet wide. They will be the largest
built on the Mississippi and will be
used in traffic between st. Paul and st.
Louis, it is said. Coal grain and other
bulky articles will be hauled by water.
Contracts for tow boats for the harges
are to be let soon. The local plant. it
is said, expects to be busy for about
eighteen months in the construction of
the hargos' and between @5G and sec dd-
ditional meg will be needed.
The local boat works is the only ship
building company on the Mississippi
which h"s hnen granted barge cor
tracts, the majority of the work being
done b. plants on the Ohio and other
Mississippi tributaries. Two of the
giant barges will be put on the ways
at one time and the work will be speed

Material for the barges is expected
to start to arrive within the next sixty
or ninety days. and officials of the local
plant are busily engaged in rounding
up enough men to care for the work.

of the board Because man uses TO-
bacco, it will not necessarily bar MN

to provide Il room where he can smoke
if he so desires. A little friendly game
of cards would do no harm If money
was not involved. We must create a

NATIVES ARE ANXIOUS TO
 BE CITIZENS

That the Natives of this section of Alaska are becoming alive to the advantages of being recognized cit izens and that they are anxious to have the privilege of casting their votes at the elections the same as any citizen of the United States, is evinced by the rapidly increasing number of men who are applying to the Courts to have their citizenship established under the Territorial laws.
 This morning applications were received by Clerk of the Court J. w. Bell from six Natives, resi- dents of Hydaburg, to have their status examined by the Court and their certificates of citizenship is sued. These men have all con- | formed to the requirements of the l law before the school board of Hyd- aburg and on the date to be set by the Court will appear for examina- i tion.
 They have all certified that their tribal relations have been severed and that they have adopted the ways and customs of the white man that they are living separate and apart from any tribe or tribal house and that they are conforming to the laws of the land as administered by the white men.
 Those who applied this morning for the papers were Boyd Nakathla, Charles Scott, John s. Brown. Thaddeus Issacs, Paul D. Morrison Jack George. Others who have ap- piled from other places, but whose examinations are still pending, arc James Watson, John Williams, and Joseph Scott, all of Juneau, and Charles D. Newton of Rake. It is expected that many others will ap- ply, now that some of the more pro gressive have started and it is known that a number of Natives of Klawock are now preparing their applications to be forwarded to Juneau.
 Since the court returned from Kctchikan Harry Willard, of Ju ncau was examined and was grant cd his papers as a full American cit izen.
