But more and more join every meet

George W. Atkinson, Jr., son OF the
former Governor Atkinson, as well as
former federal Judge here, who had
but lately returned from doing Red
Cross work abroad, delivered a most
interesting account of his foreign ex-
periences. He saw service in the
front line trenches and was under fire
of the enemy more times than he can
remember. AS a public speaker he is
"a chip off the old block" reminiscent.
in more than one mannerism OF his dis

No less delightful were the readings

Miss Annie Lowe, of Clarksburg. Sci

HAMMERS BANK CAN'T GET DE POSITORS TO COME AND RE

Two days since the Farmers bank announced it's intention of unincor- porating and advertised in both local papers to that effect. It also notified it's depOsitors to appear and get the money which the bank has been custodian of for sometime
 But there seems to be misunder- standing somewhere. The deposliors just won't call around and Wally Cathcart and Harry St. George are forced to keep it until they do come. If they hadn't wanted to get rid or the deposits, the chances are that all the money would have been called for in a few hours.
 MT. St. George said last night that he would like to urge all who can to call around today and get their money and others having paid up Liberty bonds are also asked to call and get them.

 The funeral services for Marion E (Grorge) Carey were held yesterday afternoon at o'clock at Eagle hall under the auspices of Igloo No. I Pioneers of Alaska, of which the de ceased was charter member, and largely attended by both Pioneers
 and Eagles. he also having been a member of the latter organization Special music was rendered during the services. Following the services at Eagle hall, the body was taken tu the local cemetery and inferred
 in the Pioneers plot according Do wishes expressed by Mr. Carey just prior to his death
 The deceased was borne at Browns vile, Oregon, on December 23, 1855, being almost 6i years old at the time of his death. During the early part of his manhood he resided in oregon, Washington, Idaho and Mon tana. He followed many lines of employment, one of which was min. ties for q young man in Alaska ,and being of an adventurous nature, young Carey left Montana and came to Juneau in 1886. In the spring of '%7 he left there and with several companions came thru the headwa- ters of the Yukon river, floating down that stream to Forty Mile He remained in that camp until the fall of 'S7, then dropped down the Yukon to Nulato where he married Martha Duranuff on oct. 1, 1887.
 lie came to the Panama valley for the first time during the summer of 1889, staying there for one year and then returning to Forty Mile where ol that year he removed tO Circle City, He made q hurried trip to the states in 1891, leaving his wife at Forty Mile, and during his absence his first child was born, q boy, which died a few months after its birth. In the spring of 1895 he re turned to Forty Mile and with his family proceeded to Circle. lie and his family stampeded to Dawson in '9I and the following year went on q visit to Mir Carey'a old home. The following year saw them back in Alaska, and transferred from Daw son to Nome and after q few month. there back to Circle, leaving there for Fairbanks in 1905 where the de ceased and his family had resided since that time

Several days ago the local Pic, ueers. pursuing the II. C. l.. wired the zone surplus supply office, at san Francisco, Calf. asking for d shipment of l5O tons of staple com mOditirs to Fairbanks Among the articles ordered was flour, sugar milk, lard, butter, coffee and bacon.
 II seems from the response reCeiV- ed yesterday that the war depart mtnt is in the same fix of the man who would have had ham and eggs for breakfast only he had no ham and eggs Providing all requirements, such as paying freight charges, ship met, the surplus supply officer would be glad to ship the commodities or dcred only he hasn't got most of them and cant get them from the war department. At least that is the idea which the Pioneers get from the fullowi ing message which was receiv- ed yesterday:
 san Francisco, Sept g, 1919 Fred Lewis, President Pioneers,
 Fairbanks
 Relative yours of Sept. 3rd, ship mcnt surplus foodstuffs authorized by war department provided stores available No sugar, canned milk, butter lard or coffee surplus. Nee essary you pay freight and expenses incident to delivery to you. If ship mrnt Is possible notice will be given you. also particulars as to payment. (SigneD "DEVOL.
 Surplus Officer"
 Owing to the fact that the last freight for the interior will leave Seattle tomorrow, it is of course impossible for the shipment of sup plies to be made Two articles on the list submitted by the Pioneers could have been secured, flour and bacon, but it would have been nec- cssary for Fairbanks people to bear all expenses incident to transporta- ton, which would have rendered any saving doubtful.
 It was stated at the time that the request was made that government transportation would be used in moV- ing the shipment It was even Sug- gested that the government steamer Jacobs would be used in moving 1t downstream from WhitehOrse, but the war department evidently failed to connect with this information and left it up to those making the or der to pay the freight"

Senate Foreign Committee Char

as Such
REPORT is SENT TO
The SENATE TODAY
Four Reservations Are Made
Declaring Nations Would Take
Us On Own Terms

Washington, Sept. 10.-character-
izing the league of nations as an al
lance which will breed war. the ma
jority report of the senate foreign
committee was reported to the ser
are today. Report contains four res
crvations concerning the Monroe
Doctrine, Shantung, the right CT the
United States to withdraw uncondi-
tionaliy and the refusal Of the United
States to preserve the territorial in
tegrity of any other country. 1t is
asserted that the purpose of the pro-
posed reservations was to preserve
American rights and sovereignty.
The report denounced the attempt
to frighten the unthinking by sug-
gesting that if the senate adopts the
amendments the United States may
be excluded from the league and de-
clared that such a thing would not
happen. that the other nations would
take US on our own terms. for with
out US the league is wreck and all
the gains from victorious peace
would be lmperilled.

MUST WAIT ON RAW-
FICATION OF TREATY
VIII Be Held in London or Paris
Unless United States Ratifes
Covenant

Washington, Sept. st now Is vir--
tually certain that the first meeting Of
the league of nations will not be held
in Washington in October as origin
ally planned.
The exact date depends upon the
action Of, the United States senate in
regard to the ratification of the
treaty containing the covenant which
creates the league. Should the sem
ate ratify the treaty in time to per-
! nit delegates to arrive for a meet
ing in November, it probably will be
held then, but if the discussion is
much protracted, the meeting time is
expected to go over until the first Of
; the year, some time in January in
1920. There probably could be no
meeting in December because OF cir
cumstances which might make it in
convenient for some Of the foreign
delegates to come at that time.
The first meeting Of the league
council. however, can be called any
time after three Of the principal pow
ers have ratified the treaty. 1t is ex-
pected to be held Immediately after
such ratification. Unless the senate
has ratified the treaty by that time,
the United States would not be rep
resented at the meeting, which would
be held in Paris or in London. Ger
many already has ratified and France
is expected by some observers to
ratify some time during September.
Italy generally is expected to be the
next in line and japan and is expect
ed to act during the next three
months. Great Britain has enacted
legislation carrying the treaty into ef-
feet but has not formally ratified 1t.
probably waiting until after the Ca
madam parliament now in session
has acted.
The situation as to ratification by
lesser powers and the large number
of neutrals which signed the treaty
is not clear in Washington. Presi-
dent Wilson recently told senator's of
the foreign relations committee that
he had no official information on that
phase of the subject.
