WICKERSHAM
 ATTACKS LANE
 ANDGOV. RIGGS
SaysRiggs Appointment Was a Political One--.
 AllegesTh Riggs Voted Illegally in 1916

WASHINGTON - Astounding accusations against the admins tration of Alaskan affairs by the Department of the Interior is contained in a lengthy letter ad- dressed to Secretary of Interior Franklin K. Lane by Wicker sham. The Secretary of Interior has made no reply to the con- munication. Copies of the letter are being distributed among a few congressman.
 MT. Wickersham demands the withdrawal of Franklin K. Lane from official management of the Alaska railroad construction. He charges incompetency, political partisanship, waste and misuse of funds appropriated, and the levying of unjust and unreason- able rates on the completed por- tions of the railroad. He further charges that Lane assisted the Guggenheim . Morgan corpora tions in imposing unreasonable rates against Alaska shippers, and an unjust discrimination against the residents of the Ter ritory that has virtually given over the control oi the Boring river district to the Guggenheims and made it possible for the Southern Pacific to get the cream of the Matanuska coal fields. He further charges that Governor Thomas Riggs was a failure at railroad construction on the Me- mana division, and says to the Secretary of the Interior: You are responsible for it. You knew he was hopelessly incompetent when you sent him there.' ;
 WASHINGTON Wickersham in a letter further charges, Riggs appointment was a so- cial-political one and an offense against the Alaska railroa1 l pro- ject. Drunkenness, MT. Secre- tary, in headquarters at Nenana, publicly Haunted in MT. Riggs face, cost the Government rail- road funds a loss of millions of dollars, and years loss of time, and an end of appropriations, and brought failure to the enter prise"
 WASHINGTON Wickersham in letter charges that Mrs. Riggs, wife of Governor Thomas Riggs, and Mrs. Cramer, wife of c. P. Cramer, secretary to the Governor, voted illegally at the Nenana election in November, 1916, Riggs being then comman- der and Cramer disbursing officer. He says: "***and when Con- mander Riggs procured Renia Coudert Riggs, his wife, to vote at that election, and Disbursing Officer Cramer procured Florence E. Cramer, his wife, to vote at the same polls, both they and and their wives were guilty of the criminal act or acts denounced in the congressional election law, and ought to be punished as if they were plain common people instead of securing immunity be. cause they were officers in the Alaskan Engineering commission, and more recently governor and secretary to the governor of Alaska.

TOM TAMAREE PASSES AWAY
 AT AGE OF 70
Was a Highly Respected and Useful Citizen Church Interpreter for a Number of Years.

Tom Tamaree, a well known resident of Wrangell. died at ' o'clock Monday evening.
 Mr. Tamaree was born in Vic toria. B. C., in 1S49, and was therefore 70 years of age. His father was a Hawaiian who was brought to Wrangell before he was grown, by his father (Tom Tamaree's grandfather The grandfather was in some way connected with the old Russian fort which was located near where the sawmill now stands. That was at least one hundred years ago. The old Hawaiian's son, upon reaching manhood married an Indian princess who came from the Shakes family of chiefs three generations back. A short time after his marriage there was trouble between the Natives and the Russians. The young Ha- waiian. not wishing to remain where there was so much strife left Wrangell, taking his wife with him. They settled in Vic toria. B. c. where two children were born to the family, Tom be- ing the younger.
 Tom Tamaree and his brother grew up in Victoria where they received a fair education. After the death of Toms father his mother returned to Wrangell, the home of her childhood.
 Tom Tamaree was married in Victoria more than 40 years ago. His widow survives him.
 During his early life Tom visi- ted Wrangell three times in com. pany with his mother. About 20 years ago he and his wife came to Wrangell to make it their home. This was done out of considera- tion for Toms aged mother. His older brother had died and the mother constantly declared that she could not be happy with her son so far away. Since the time that Tom came north for his mothers sake he has resided here and his life has been an open book to the people of Wrangell.
 A short time after coming to Wrangell to make it his home he became interested in Salvation Army work. He had almost forgot ten all the Thlinget he everknew, but he studied the language and became a good linguist. Much of the time during the past 20 years he gave valuable service to the cause of religion as an interpreter. He was for several years inter- preter fo. the Salvation Army, and several years interpreter for the Presbyterian church.
 Tom loved children although he had none of his own. It was only natural, therefore, that he and his good wife should have adopted two orphan children upon whom they bestowed the love and affection which it was never their privilege to show to a child of their own. But even as foster parents they were most unfortu- nate, as both of the children died.
 MT. Tamaree was straightfor- ward and honorable in his deal ings, and commanded the respect of all w.lo knew him. And it was with a feeling of deep regret that the people of Wrangell learned that he had passed away.
 The funeral was held in the Presbyterian church Wednesday afternoon and was conducted by

Burns andLincOln ] Bout Is Called Off;
 Burns Gets Roast

Instead of the Burns-Lincoln match at Nogales tonight, the Line city will have.CCa bout between Whirlwind Langford of the 18th infantry, and Rufus Williams. The Burns-Lincoln scrap was scheduled first for tonight, then postponed 8 week and finally called off entirely.
 The disagreement arose over the fact that after terms were reached, Burns decided to hold out for a big ger split on gate receipts.
 The fighting fans, though some what disappointed at the unsports- manlike affair which resulted when these two fighters last met at No gales, were inclined to give Burns the benefit of the doubt and see them go together once more. Now their attitude will be different.
 The Nogales Herald came out with an editorial reading Burns out of the game in the state and asking that the fans prevail upon Governor Campbell to appoint a boxing commission in the state. This telegram received from Burns explains the situation:

Gen. Gales Defied In Mescal War, Report

DOUGLAS, Aug. s. - Presidente Municipal Jorge Tato of Agua Prieta, has defied Gov. P. Elias Gales, ac- cording to we'll authenticated reports in Agua Prieta. and has refused to obey the governors orders, including one demanding his resignation as presidente.
 The trouble, it is said, is the result of Governor Gales determination to enforce his recent decree against the manufacture and sale of mescal. The story goes that few days ago Gov ernor Gales telegraphed MT. Tato and ordered that he send at once to Her mosillo any person or persons, male or female, who had been or were vio- lating his order prohibiting the sale of mescal.
 MT. Tato answered that it would be impossible to do that, whereupon the governor replied that he must either obey the order or resign as presi- dente. To this MT. Tato is said to have replied that he would do neither, virtually defying the governor.
 What the outcome of the clash will be nobody knows, but it has created considerable excitement in Agua Prie- ta, where the sentiment is strongly back of Presidente Tato. The office of presidente municipal is elective. Whether the occupant can be re moved by the governor remains to be seen.

SILVER BELLS
 FAMOUS MINES
 ARE RE0PENED
Closed Since ArmiStiCe, Old Camps Resume Work With
 Rising Copper Price, Tucson District Is FlOuriShing Again

Edward Massey, deputy state mine inspector, is back from the mining country around Tucson and the Silver Bell district and reports a gratifying resumption of development work in production in both sections. Silver Bell, one of the famous old camps of the state, which has been opened up, closed down and reopened more times perhaps than any place in the state, is again resuming operations.
 The mines at Silver Bell closed down soon after the armistice, after a highly profitable wartime produc- tion, but with the increased price of copper they are again coming to the front. MT. Massey reported that the Fl Tiro property, which is being worked by Percy Williams, has a force of 8 men and is shipping 450 tons of ore a month.
 The North Star mine in the Twin Ruttes district, belonging to the Mid, land Copper company, has struck a AZ to five-foot vein of ore while drifting on the 250foot level, that will run five percent sulphide.
 The Queen. also owned by the Mid land company, has shipped 200 tons of 15 per cent ore.
 At Mineral Hill the Consolidated Copper company is doing develop ment work and has opened up a big body Of ore on the 700-foot level which viii be shipped to Tucson. The company expects to construct its own mill within a year.

DISTRICT BALL TEAMS IN
 ACTION SUNDAY
BiSbee Club Plays the 18th Infantry at Douglas, Lowell Meets 1St Cav. in Warren,
 BiSbee Cubs Play In Wilcox

All three baseball clubs of the War ren district will be in action tomor- row, the newly reorganiZed Bisbee Cubs have made arrangements to go over to Wilcox and take on the crack nine of that city. The regular Bisbee club will go against the Nineteenth Infantry at Douglas, and Bert Whal- ing's reinforced Lowellites will clash with the First Cavalry at the Warren grounds.
 The Bisbee Cubs, under the man. agement of Al Kobey, have been strengthened by the addition of two new men, Purse, outfielder, and lief frey, pitcher. The team is composed exclusively of Bisbee talent, no i'm ported men or professionals being used. The battery in Sundays game with Wilcox probably will be Coch- ran and Kobey.
 The Lowell team will have in it's lineup against the cavalrymen the four players from Fl Paso who have been "blacklisted" by the club in that city which they left when they came here to play. The blacklist" story caused considerable amusement among the players yesterday. In the first place, the club to which they belonged and the one in which they are now playing are not in organized baseball and any blacklist" could not be effective.
 The players say they notified the manager of their intention to leave, but that he went to Cloudcroft a day or so later, and was not in Fl Paso when they left for Bisbee They could not wait for his return to have a form al leave-taking and to this they at tributed their "blacklisting" They were only getting $96 a month in Fl Paso and could not we'll afford to pass up the offer made them by the Lowell club.
 Brandt and Le Brandt will be the | battery for Lowell in tomorrow's s game.
 A large crowd will accompany the regular Bisbee team to Douglas in the hope that the boys will succeed in stopping their recent losing streak and hang up victory against the sol diers.
