 Upon learning that the boat had not reached Anchorage a searching party left Kenai several days later and found Dawson and Berg about twelve miles from Kenai.

TALKEETNA BOOSTED
 BY DEPUTY MARSHAL

According to Deputy U. s. Marshal Jake Hepfinger, the town of Talk eetna is entitled to be called the model town of Alaska when it comes to morality, says the Anchorage Times. And, too, in the face of the fact that Talkeetna is naturally the headquarters for the Cache creek miners returning from the seasons work, as well as rapidly becoming a railroad center.
 Marshal Hepfinger admits that ex-
 stence is becoming monotonous and he wecomes the relief of visiting An chorage occasionally More people, Jake states, are wintering in Tal- keetna this winter than ever before | and great plans are under way for the holiday festivities.
 From a commercial standpoint he believes spring of 1921 will witness a building boom which is being started by the model establishment in the course of erection by H. w. Nagley, the well known merchant. The sale of real estate at the present time Is slow, but MT. Hepfinger also an ticipates revival in this particular with the further development of Cache creek and surrounding mining distrncts which is certain to ma terialize next spring. While in town on personal and official business MT. Hepfinger is staying at the Crescent, where he holds forth at length re- garding the opportunities afforded at Talkeetna.

COKE HELL, ELL, IS IN AN(r'EI()RA(,E;
 FR0M EXTERIOR

Making hlS 1nltlal V1Slt to Anchor age, at the solicitation of his friend, Chas. E. Bunnell, Coke Hill, assistant
 prosecuting attorney of the Fourth
 division, is enjoying features of city life unknown to the interior towns in
 which he has passed many years
 while living in Alaska, says the An | chorage Times. MT. Hill admits this | fact and while not speaking deroga- l tory of Nenana, Fairbanks, Ruby and | Iditarod, the unbiased attorney frank | ly states that even the favorable in | formation as advanced by Judge Bun | nell and others failed completely to prepare him for the advantages pecul- far to the railroad metropolis.
 MT. Hill arrived in Anchorage Sat
 urday afternoon and following the pleasurable sensations as furnished by Anchorage's metropolitan appear ance he has equally enjoyed meeting many old-time friends of the interior who have materially assisted in the making of Anchorage.
 Regarding the trip from Nenana to Anchorage Mr. Hill mentioned par ticularly the substantial construction work under way by the railroad con- mission and similar to Judge Bunnell expressed appreciation of the. courte sies extended by the officials. It is this one feature, Mir. Hill declares which has much to do with the satis- fled condition of the hundreds of em- ployes and has been a powerful fac tor in accomplishing satisfactory re- suits.
 From railroads to politics, MT. Hill stated that the result of the over whelming Republican victory in the Fourth division was merely in keeping with the general feeling which pre- dominated throughout the nation. "Of course" he said, "the Fourth dOvision voters were possibly a trifle emphatic in their expression, but not on ac- count of any particular animosity to- ward administration officials" Tn fact, Mr. Hill said, regardless of ! party utilization the people of the Fourth division sincerely regret that the change in political management may mean the retirement of Judge Bunnell who is universally respected l and admired in the division.
 Again from politics to winter sports MT. Hill expressed surprise at the ap- parent lack of winter sports in An chorage. The interior towns, especial ly Fairbanks, he stated, surpass An chorage in this particular He of fered as a suggestion that the live wires immediately take up the ques- tion of forming an association with the view of establishing an ice rink adequate to accommodate curling hockey and other forms of winter sports so important to the health and pleasure of the people generally. Mr. Hill even went so far as to further suggest that such men as Captain Lathrop and Judge David bring the matter before the chamber of com merce with the ultimate idea of es- tablishing the rink immediately. q will be glad" Mir. Hill stated, "to as- sist these gentlemen in preparing the necessary plans"

Democratic Registrar
In Solid South Mistakes
Wayne Woman's Politics

Wayne county residents who will
not be able to return to their place of
residence November 2 to vote are be-
ginning to send in their applications
for absent voters" ballots SO they can
vote by mail. L. P. Meredith, clerk
of the circuit court, has received about
100 Of these applications.
One woman wrote asking that a
democratic ballot be sent to her.
Another woman in a letter accompany
ing her application wrote that she had
the application attested by a notary
public in a small town in Alabama.
She said he told her that he was glad
to assist any voter in the performance
of the duties of good citizenship and
he refused to accept fee. Later the
notary asked if she would care to
state her politics. She told him she
was a Republican, whereupon the no.
tary informed her that if he had
known that at the time he made out
her application he would have charged
her $500.

ONLY SMALL AMOUNT
OF COUNTY TAXES IN

Not for years have tax payments
been so slow coming in as at this time,
according to Ed Weidner, county
treasurer.
The final day for paying taxes is
Monday, Nov. l. Usually two weeks
before the end of the fall tax paying
period a large part of the tax has
been paid, but this year very small
percentage OF the tax has been
collected.
Treasurer Weidner advises taxpay-
ers to make their settlements at this
time to avoid a last minute STAN
pede" which now threatens to swamp
the treasurer and his assistants.
Washington township taxpayers are
advised that they can pay their taxes
in Cambridge City by calling at any
bank in that city. Taxes in Washing
ton township were formerly received
by the Farmers bank of Milton. which
is now closed.

.HECKLER, CANDIDATE
FIGHT AT new PARIS

With She first fight resulting from
a political dispute reported from New
Paris, Ohio, the presidential campaign
in west central Ohio is now on in full
blast.
Attached by a man, said to be Davis
Brown, an overseas veteran, at the
close of a political meeting, he had
addressed in New Paris, Wednesday
evening, Captain Fitzgerald of Day
ton, also a world war veteran and a
candidate for representative in con-
gress. swung his fist so vigorously
that his assailent is said to have been
knocked down three times. Specta-
tors finally separated the two men.
1t is understood that no charge has
been perferred against Brown.
During the meeting Brown "heckled"
Captain Fitzgerald. When the candi-
date for congress concluded his ad-
dress and left the hall Brown, IT is
said, made an effort to attack him.
Two Richmond women who at
tended the meeting and witnessed the
fight state that Fitzgerald went into

FOR POWER
PERMITS HELD BACK;
WAIT ON CONGRESS
(By Associated Press)

AMHERST, Mass, Oct. 1.-THE
federal waterpower commission has
agreed to refuse 10 accept any applicd-
tion for power permits within existing
national parks until congress has
been given full opportunity to pass
upon the entire question of power de-
velopment within such parks, j.
Horace Mcfarland, OF Harrisburg, Pa.
president of the American Civic asso-
citation announced today in an address
at the opening session of the sixteenth
annual convention of that orSaniZa-
ton.
To Withdraw Parks.
Mr. Mcfarland also announced that
Senator Jones, of Washington, chair
man of the Senate commerce commit
tee, had promised Secretary of the
Interior Payne, a member of the
waterpower commission, TO introduce
a bill Withdrawing the national parks
and monuments from the provisions
of the recently enacted federal water
power act and to urge its early
passage.
The waterpower people now have
the right" said Mr.. Farland, to file
claims on every drop Of falling water
in any federal reservation, be it park.
THE national parks are now in i'm
minent peril. The danger is two-fold.
1t comes from the desire of individ-
uals, who are organized into many
corporations, to use the resources of
the parks for selfish advantage. They
hope to get what they want for moth
ing inside the parks rather than to
pay like others for the use of these
water resources outside the parks.
Parks in Peril
THE irrigationists want to dam
yellow stone Lake in Yellowstone Ma
tional Park. They want to use Heart
Lake, Lewis Lake and Shoshone Lake
in the same park. The have pushed
through the senate and have poised
on the brink CT passage in the house
bill permitting the destruction OF
Falls River basin. They have already
ruined forever the wonderful Jackson
Lake. just outside the park.
These folks control senators and
representatives.. some of whom threat
en- to block all appropriations, all road
building. all developments in parks
for your benefit if their clients are not
given first USE
Discuss National Policy
The convention session was given
over to a discussion of the National
parks. Stephen T. Mather. director
of the National Park Bureau, laid par
ticular stress on the increase of visit
ors to the National parks this year.
Colonel w. B. Breeley, chief forest
er of the United States Forest Serv
ice, discussed THE National Forests"
with particular reference to definite
national policy for the development
of the national forests and the ma

RALSTOk NOLAN BILL
THEME OF ADDRESS
BY EARL CRAWFORD

The second meeting of the member
ship campaign being conducted by the
Wayne county farmers association
was held in Jackson township We'd
nesday evening. Earl Crawford, Of
Milton, a practical farmer, told of the
need for organization among the
farmers Of the county, and the work
done by the state and national asso-
Citations.
Crawford explained the Ralston-
Nolan bill now up for consideration by
congress. He said this measure. which
purports to remedy alleged differences
in taxes paid by farmers and mer-
chants and manufacturers Of the
country, is unjust in its provisions.
Farmers Income Small
Because merchants and manufacture
ers pay a large amount Of income tax,
he asserted, they are backing a move
ment to impose an additional tax Of
one per cent on all farm land owned
by individuals which is valued at more
than $4,000.
He explained that the difference
in amount of tax paid by the two
classes was caused by the fact. that
he farmer has smaller income to be
taxed than the merchant or manufac-
turer.
J. L. Dolan, county agent, and Theo-
dore Davis, president Of the Wayne
county association, also spoke at the
meeting. Teams were orga niZed for
the purpose of soliciting members of
the association in jackson township.
Plans for the countrywide member
ship drive include meetings to be held
in every township in the county. The
drive ends Nov l with Center town
ship. By that time every farmer in
the county will have been given an
opportunity to join the association.
Meeting at Haaerstown
The next meeting is that to be held
at the Hagerstown l. O. o. F. hall
Friday evening. Farmers OF Wayne
township will meet in the circuit
court room Monday evening.
Officials in charge of the drive said
today that they were expecting to
receive figures telling of the results
of the canvass conducted in Franklin
township Tuesday and Wednes sda V.
At present about so per cent of the
farmers are enrolled with the asso-
citation.
Will Discuss Prices
The present price situation for
farm products, the need for organiza-
ton, and the value of organization to
the farmer are among the subjects
that will be discussed at the town
ship meetings. Letters to every farm
er in Wayne township were sent out
by the county agents office Thursday
calling attention to the meetings to
be held here and urging their cooper
alton.

TT. WAYNE TIRE AND RUBBER COMPANY
IN RECEIVERS HANDS; SERIOUS CHARGE

FORT WAYNE, Ind, Oct 1.-THE
Lincoln Trust company of Fort Wayne

ords of the Fort Wayne Tire & Rubber
Manufacturing company, as receiver

the company, Edward D. Engler and
Morton f. Andrews filed a verified
petition for the appointment of a re-

ceivership as prayed for and named
the Lincoln Trust company, fixing the
bond at $450,00O. Date for the hearing
of the receivership proceedings will
be set later.
The allegations in the complaint
were sensational in the extreme. The

behind the bars of the city Jail and
said good morning, judge" to the
mayor in city court Thursday.
The students had spent the early
hours of Thursday morning painting
signs on the sidewalks and store
windows along Main street advertis
ing the Earlham-Rose Poly football
game which is to be played at Reid
field Saturday.
When stores were opened Thursday,
show windows and sidewalks along
Main street, from Fifth street 10
Twelfth street. were covered with
whitewash to the disgruntlement Of
perspiring clerks. who attacked the
glaring signs with mops and brushes.
Given Suspended Fine.
Sellars, Hadley, Kellum and Hender-
son were arrested about $3.50 a. NJ,
but not until they had successfully
put over their advertising campaign
for dear old alma mater. They were
arraigned before the mayor charged
with violation of the city ordinance
which prohibits the painting of signs
on sidewalks.
After lecturing the young men on
the evil of going around armed with
whitewash buckets and brushes the
mayor assessed each student a fine OF
S25 and costs, causing four counte.
nances to cloud with gloom; then TO
suspend each fine, causing four coun-
tcnances to register great relief.
