MCCARTHY RESIDENT
 URGES HIS FRIENDS
 TO SUPPORT M'BRIDE

John E. Barrett, president of the Mccarthy Commercial Club, is a strong advocate of J. c. Mcbride for Republican national committeeman, and he advises all of his friends in the Copper river valley to support his candidacy. Mr. Barrett is on busi- ness trip to San Francisco and in a letter to Attorney F. H. Foster, he says:
 q met J. c. Mcbride on the boat on his way from Juneau to Seattle and had a good chance to become ac- Quainted with him. I found him to be progressive business man who is certainly familiar With the needs of the territory. In my opinion we have made no mistake in endorsing him as our national committeeman and I am going to ask you and all of my friends to do all you can to insure his cleo ton at the primaries on April 27,
 MT. Mcbride has many friends in Southeastern Alaska and in conversa- ton with a number of them they as sured me that he would carry the First division by large majority"

N. {. COMPANY LIBE;LI.SBR0WER
 FOR CASH DUE

Troubles never come singly At
 least that, probably, is what Mail Con-
 tractor John Brewer thinks, as a re- suit of action taken by the Northern
 Commercial Company to collect money alleged to be due on material sold to
 Brewer. Representatives of the mar shal's office have been busy libeling property belonging to the mail carrier in Fairbanks, and Deputy Marshal Jack Buckley was sent out on the trail on similar mission. The orders are to grab everything owned by Brewer, with the exception of just sufficient equip ment to enable him to get through with the mail.
 Brewer is making no effort to fight the proceedings instituted by the com pany. He says he is not worrying, be- cause he expects to have the money in a few days to liquidate the claim against him, amounting to $6,50O. TheI money is coming from San Francisco.
 Brewer has had all kinds of trouble since early winter, chiefly through in- ability to overcome adverse trail con- ditions, which upset his schedules a 1 number of times and put him to much additional expense. And after he had finally caught up with the mail ship ments and began reaching out for some of the passenger traffic, with prom l ises of service superior to that of in dependents, along came an overflow in the Delta country which has tied up traffic as completely as any of the storms of the winter. Stages are now at both ends of the overflow, waiting to get across, but the date of the sub sidence of the trail flood is matter of extreme uncertainty. The present cold weather may close the gap, but there is nothing sure about it.
