to do, many of the men have in- vested their earnings in supplies and left for the hills in quest of future tonnage for the railroad More
 would have gone had their meager savings permitted, but all of the oldtime workers, it can safely be said, have, in one way or another, contributed to the upbuilding of the country. They have proved them selves to be law-abiding, patriotic, and very patient, and it is a matter of general regret that there are not
 now enough of them left to fill all of the positions that will be open during the coming summer. The
 News would much prefer to see the railroad completed by the class of men who started it, than to see the
 places filled at this time by mail order workers.
 Perhaps the contemplated revi- sion of the wage scale in this divi- sion will make working conditions sufficiently attractive to keep the present force intact and attract
 many of the oldimers back to the Interior, in which event it will not
 be necessary to draw heavily, if a, all, upon the list of applications
 now on file. The oldtimers vii

FREDERICK MEARS, Chairman and Chief Engineer.

The committee from the Commer- cial club, who called on Colonel Mears to take up wages and other matters, report that it was their wish to show fully why all wages should be materially increased, and also fairly adjust the amount as between those boarding at the mess and those who do not. But Colonel Mears held the view that 1t was not within the province of the Conner lcial club to take up the matter of wages. since 1t concerned only em- pioyes. But he did permit us to give many of the most vital points. and he stated that they are now working on a new scale that he was sure would be just to all.
 It was not planned by the com mlttee, Tn any manner, to take up the commissary matter. Colonel Mears did volunteer, however, the
 information that the system Of handling the commissary would be changed to the same as is now in effect at Anchorage; that is, not breaking packages, thereby saving considerable help at the store, yet enabling their employees to get their supplies, the same as heretofore.
 He also gave us the information that they are now working on plans
 which, if they mature as they hope will give more work to this section on bridges than we had reason te Iexpect. He also stated that any aie
 he could give to get wagon roae from Roosevelt to the Kantishns
 mines, he would gladly do.

MAIL ORDER WORKERS.

lHS COUlhASlSS OL N.AN -'N-iN@-'N~ Commercial club, who met with Chairman Mears yesterday after noon, were informed that the Alas kan Engineering commission has many thousands of applications on file from persons seeking employ ment on the Government raiiroad-- applications sufficient to replace the entire railroad force from top to bottom within a very short space of time And we have no doubt the statement is true. It Is something to know that the work during the coming season will not be held back because of lack of labor. There have been times in the past when it was not possible for the commis- sion to secure workers when they were needed, and further delay at this time, on that account, or any account, would prove serious set back to the big Government enter prise, which now has a time limit set on its completion.
 The men needed to do the work necessary to complete the railroad on schedule time are not now in Alaska. That is certain. And es- pecially is it true of the Interior division. Workers must come from elsewhere. and it will be pleasing to oldtime Alaskans to learn that there is a plentiful supply of ap- plicants to draw upon. The early completion of the railroad has be- come a matter of vital importance to the Interior.
 It is very questionable to The News, however, if the applicants re- ferred to represent the sort of workers who will benefit Alaska. It is one thing to get men to work on a railroad, and quite another thing to get men for that work who will fit into the development scheme which Congress has in mind for Alaska at the present time. If the railroad is to fulfill it's mission as d development project, it must be built by men whose presence in the country will contribute to the sue cess of the enterprise and assist in the upbuilding of the Territory.
 It may be easy enough to gel workers, but it is not so easy tt find men suited to the kind of worl essential to territorial progress. | is even possible that among tht thousands of applicants there art some whose employment would b. menace to the railroad, menace to the community in which the! might be temporarily stationed. W. do not say that the commission would employ that class of labor but it must be admitted that certain risks attach to the mail order meth cd of employment. And Alaskan would not welcome in their mids workers who are not law abidin and otherwise good citizens. w do not want the time to come i Alaska when it will be necessary | lock our doors, and especially woul we regret it if men imported t build the Government rairoa should so change conditions as t make our homes unsafe. Better n railroad at all than that.
 Thus far the Interior end of tn railroad has been free from seriou agitation; the work has been don as we'll on this end as elsewhere and when there has been no wor

that this new system will meet many
 of the objections presented by the
 merchants of the town of Nenana,
 and, at the same time, protect the
 employees against higher living costs. It has been followed successfully at other parts of the construction work, and there is no reason to believe that it will not be entirely satis- factory here.
 kantishna Wagon Road Construction.
 The importance of constructing
 the wagon road into the new Kan tishna mining district was very ably set forth by Mir. Scott, a member
 of the committee, and after dis cussing this subject at length, it was agreed that MT. Browne would secure necessary maps and other
 data to be forwarded to the chair man of the Alaska Road Commits sion at Juneau, through our head
 quarters at Anchorage. The com mittee was assured we would urge the engineers in charge of the waS- on road construction to do some thing towards this work during the coming season.
 New Official Pamphlet Showing Re sources of Tributary Country. Following a suggestion which was initiated by the Seward Chamber of Commerce, request was made upon the committee of the Nenana Com mercial club to secure reliable data 'concerning the resources of the country tributary to the town of Nenana, and the railroad line thru this section of Alaska. It is pur-
 posed to take this information and compile it in suitable form, togeth-
 CT with maps and illustrations, an, place it in the hands of the Bureau of Publicity of the Interior Depart ment, with a request that they com pile separate official pamphlet dealing entirely with the towns and resources tributary to the Govern ment railroad.

CHILDREN AND BOOKS.

It does the child no harm to make
the acquaintance OF books which were
not written for children. In home
where the great books that have in
spired or amused successive genera
lions are accessible, an active-minded
child is likely at some time or other
to get at them. If we want our chill
dren to fall in love with the better
kind of books, let us provide them
with opportunities for meeting such
books without too much formality.
