SALVATION ARMY
 DRIVE ON MAY 18th
Quota for North Canaan
 and Canaan Will Be $500

~~~ little publicity in city papers and therefore it would seem that the majority in this vicinity have some knowledge of the facts regarding the campaign. In North Canaan and Canaan the drive will take the form of a one-day canvass under the direction of J. Clinton Roraback, who has been appointed chairman. Mir. ,Roraback has appointed the fol- lowing committees:
 Dr. John G. Adam, William s. Smart, Henry E. Lyles, Allyn Fuller, Dr. John E. Hassett, Harry Waller, William J. Reel, N. Watson Harden bergh, Rev. A. Karl Skinner, G. Will lis Parsons.
 Canaan, John K. Mackie, William R. Hubbell, Isaac P. Hornbeck, Rev. G. F. Bristol, J. Lee Ensign.
 The quota for North Canaan and Canaan is $500 and solicitors will make a house-to-house canvass for contributions.
 The Salvation Army as an organi- zation cannot be measured by a creed, a drum, doughnut, basket of food or by street corner meet ings, according to Brigadier William Andrews of Hartford, head of the Army in Connecticut and in charge of the Home Service Fund appeal for 1920 that is to be made from May 10 to May 20 to secure funds for use in peacetime reconstruction work. All the aforementioned articles have place in the work of the Army, and all with much more besides, have contributed to it's work in peace and war.
 The Salvation Army did not be- come what the public has found it to be, because of the war, according to the Brigadier; the war only gave it 8 chance to use the wonderfully
 flexible, automatic and adjustable machine which had been born in the many years of labor and toll and service for humanity. The same fosces which unobserved by people who had not visualized the Army's work were only waiting to answer any call, as had been done many times before. A few crises which brought the Army to the fore in days gone by were the Ohio floods, the Halifax explosion, where the Army's officer lost his life for others, and the San Francisco earthquake. E Lieut.. Burt Peart, for instance, son of the Army's chief .a4secretary, gave up his life only twenty four hours before the signing of the ar mistice. Even before he went into the service he had received Carne- gie medal, along with several other Army boys, for saving life at risk oa his own.
 : "So it was with the lasses we have heard good deal about, said Brig. adler Andrews" have thought more of the homes that produced those War lassies. Invariably, they have been born and readed in Salvs- ton Army homes where intense red hot religion was the very atmos. phere they breathed, an atmosphere that spells service and seh-saerifice, without which we would not have
 kcsn worth the privilege of minis
 tering to the fighting men of oul
 Army overseas. -.
 ,~ . "The only reason, in my judg.
 msnt why we get so big chance te get .so near the hearts of the U. s seldier was that the war was ths
 biggest thing we or anyone else ever
 engaged in, and the trenches created l the atmosphere in which the milk os
 human kindness was more accept
 able and desirable than under or dinary circumstances"

ALL RECORDS BROKEN
 IN TESTING ASSOCIATION
Rand's G U rms seys Hold Butterfat Record for
 Month

The largest number of high pro ducing cows yet recorded, is shown in the April list of the Canaan Cow Testing Association of Canaan, Conn. All previous traditions of production in the association were broken when Scoville Cow, owned by W. B. Rand of Salisbury, put the grade Guernseys in the lead of fat producers with a record of 93.3 lbs. Of fat for the month of April. Two days samples of milk were taken separately from this cow and both tested in duplicate, resulting in an average test of 9.6 per cent.
 Two very promising looking dairy cows have been added to the herd of ". A. Bartle of Ore Hill. These will fill the vacancies left by number of inferior COWS who have had an opportunity to prove that they are not Mrs. O'Gradys.

WESTERN RANCH GIRL ACCUSED
OF MURDER

The stereotyped motion picture
character of the man who keeps the
Western dance hall and saloon gives
place to q new type in "The Fight
ing Shepherdess," starring Anita
Stewart. to be seen at the Hipp The
atre, Friday Dec. 18th. In this pic
ture Miss Stewart plays the part Of
the daughter of the proprietress Of a
questionable tavern in the California
sheep and cattle country. It is per
haps the first time that woman has
ever shown in motion pictures As the
keeper of a western roadhouse, though
in the old days many followed that oc-
cupation. It is also the first time that
Miss Stewart has ever taken part in Q
western play in western garb.
Fresh from Broadway with several
trunks filled with the latest styles in
clothes, footwear and headgear, Miss
Stewart laughed when the garments
that she was called upon to wear were
pointed out to her. Good naturedly
she laid away her finery and donned
high-heeled boots, buckskin skirt,
broad trimmed hat and sho tin irons
to play "The Fighting Sheperdess."

of helpfulness to the commission employees and with a view to the encouragement of Interior develop ment through the payment of wages sufficient to permit occasional pros pecting trips into the hills. W. H. Gilcher spoke of the ad- vance in the cost of supplies dur ing the past year, and suggested that that alone constituted a logical reason for advancing the pay of commission employees.
 Charles Bergman and other mem- bers spoke along the same lines, everyone present, apparently, being convinced of the need of higher wages to hold men in the country to keep the railroad work going and to assist in keeping the country alive until the railroad is com pleted.
 ! The wage clause of the letter was finally approved by the club. after slight revision, at the suggestion of Nj. A. Schaeffer, who proposed that intermittent employment be added as reason for the exodus of workers now in progress. i At the suggestion of Mir. Mo Donald, the need of some means to stimulate gold mining was in- cluded among the requests contain ed in the letter, and in its revised form, it was ordered forwarded to Mir. McPherson, with copies to the delegate from Alaska, to Engineer in Charge Browne, and to Chair man Mears.
 1 Examiner of Accounts Barndol- lar, when invited to address the lclub, while the wage discussion was lin progress, said that he was great fly enjoying the meeting and that he had been enlightened on many points by the proceedings. He said ,;.lso that he realized that highe, wages should be paid in this country than in the States, because of the higher cost of living.
 The letter to Mr. McPherson fol Jews:
 Nenana, Jan. 16, 1920. IThe Honorable !. L. McPherson, Washington, D. C.
 Dear Sir: Immediately on receipt of your wire from Seattle asking the Nenana Commercial club to ad idress yon on the needs of this re gion, the club was called in specia session and the following lettel drafted, copy of which is to go tt the Alaskan delegate to Congress also copy to MT. Frederick D Browne, of the Alaskan Engineering ;commission.
 It is in no spirit of fauittindin. or consciousness that the followin.
 matters are set forth. We are j:s
 cussing conditions, not theories. An,
The Nenana daily news., 1920-01-17

it is our conviction thAt these con- ditions of which we spea;. are vital ly linked with the present crisis in Interior Alaskan affairs, and that serious and active consideration of said conditions should and must be given by those having the authority to act, if this great Interior coun- try is to be saved from still worse collapse than at present prevails. Lest we seem presumptuous, seem ing to presume to teach our teach CTS, let us assure you of our con- fidence in your own full and ac- curate knowledge of Alaskan af- fairs and conditions; also that we are not assuming that in our Ma tional capital there is not full and minute detail of everything herein discussed, so that, if figures are sought in support of statements given as facts, you will not have far to travel in securing such fig ures while in Washington.
 I. FISH.
 | As the first commercial body in Interior Alaska to lodge complaint against permitting cannery opera tions at the mouth of the Yukon river, and consistently following that first protest with later objections and evidence addressed to the fish, cries committee of investigation, we would assure you that the full mea. sure of injustice expected of said cannery operations is now falling upon this region. At no point on either the Yukon or it's tributaries can we find that a normal catch of fish was made by either natives or whites. Mercantile companies deal ing in dried fish, the staple food for work dogs as we'll as natives and many whites of the oldtimer type, have not, in a single instance that ~f ok t~ anything like their accustomed amount of dried fish. In many cases the most they could obtain was less than a tenth of their normal SUD- ply, and in every case still greatly below the local demands, notwith standing the shrinkage of demand due to reduced population. ...
 It has been rumored that some. where on the Yukon, a white fish. erman was inspired to set his fish wheel much farther out from shore than usual during the last fishing season. and that he made the record catch of his whole career as a prac tical fisherman; that when the higf water destroyed or carried away the native traps and wheels the na tives did not restore them; that thu fish travel quite differently during high water, and that if the natives
 had but restored their gear ant set it farther from shore, they, too | would have been overloaded witt

fish, instead of having nothing and

fish, instead of having nothing and facing grim hunger in winter.
 The closer we get to such ex- plantations, the stronger grows the odor of cannery. The hard facts remain, that hundreds of work dogs have been shot because there is no
 feed for them; prospectors who have always found it indispensable to have at their heels a faithful pack dog or two, have been driven to
 like extremity. It is perfectly in reason to say. that if the winter
 becomes severe and so continues for any considerable time, natives in
 isolated districts will starve to death-for lack of their staple food We would respectfully urge you
 to help Uncle Sam to can" that
 cannery. Instead of cannery to
 clean our streams of fish, let us
 have fish hatchery to replenish
 and keep in stock our Interior
 streams. The time to do it is NOW
 Rivers teeming with food fish will
 attract and assist settlers, and our
 obligation to the natives has not
 been discharged in full More fish
 than ever" should be our slogan.
 II. ROADS.
 It may require much effort to
 get some members of Congress to
 consent to extensive road building
 in Alaska, but the importance and
 urgency of immediate development
 in that line are apparent to any
 body who knows anything about Alaska and what her future devel- opment will demand. We heartily
 endorse the effort of Major Waugh to secure adequate appropriations The driblets Congress has been sat. isfed to offer would be immensely funny, if it were not for the fact
 that the matter, is too serious even to smile at There should be roads leading from every mining and agri- cultural district to the great main highway of commerce now being constructed from the Southern coast to the heart of the country. The expense of private construction oi roads and trails is so great that where distances are so vast and set tiers so scattered, it is but sheer folly to expect roads to develop that way Roads wherever need ed" should be our aim.
 III. POWER PLANT AND MINING The Mining Congress has ably set forth the need and advantage; of central power plant. Were
 such plant now in operation al the source of Interior Alaska's flu ture fuel supply, the tunneling op erations of the Government, now begun under old methods necessari ly, in close proximity to the site or sites so we'll adapted to sucf plant, might be greatly facilitated and thereby reduced in cost. Int timber for fuel, adjacent to present mining operations, will soon be con sumed. A central power plan

 LEGISLATION.

We note with deep regret that Alaska is still being excluded from sharing in appropriations made for the further development of institu- tions of education, both regular ap- propriations and special appropria- tions. We are treated as aliens and not as fellow heirs of the same venerable Uncle. Cannot something be done to help get recognition for Alaskans on the basis of citizens? We are always accorded our fuil rights and privileges whenever any thing is needed in support of Un- cle's noble undertakings in world affairs. But, in this matter, we find ourselves less favored even thar MT. Taft's "yellow bellies," for which he said some years ago we were paying a pretty high price. We don't like to be foreigners just because we made the mistake of
 locating in and loving Alaska well
