HEDGE BUNNELL ON ROADS.

The need for good roads in Alaska was recen cry clearly expressed by Judge Charles E. bunn T statement given the Fairbanks News-Min udge Bunnell had just completed a trip to varic 0rtions of the Fourth Division, and much of rip was made on foot He was particularly impress .ith walk out from Eagle into the Fortym ountry, and jaunts about Circle and other portic ftthe upper Yukon region of his Division. Judge Bunnell said:
 ''The necessity for good roads and good trails is greater than ever before. It seems almost impossible that so itle has been needed Just think of it; one of the oldest mining camps in Alaska with only eleven miles of good wagon road and that of only recent construction. Naturally the people from Steel Creek on to Chicken Creek com plain bitterly about the condition Of this trail. They insist with good argument that the money expended should have been used to make a good pack trail the entire dis tanee There is merit in this contention There is also merit in the contention that wagon road is necessary and that it should be building from Eagle The great trouble is to get the funds with which to do the necessary work. fti
 .'There was a time when interior Alaska was very prosperous, and during that time Gen Richardson doing his utmost to secure large appropriations for roads and trails His efforts were met with an op- position almost beyond belief. The details of this opposition too reprehensible to discuss He needed assistance, not opposi- tion and had his plans carried through, we would have had good roads or good trails to all these isolated sections No wonder there has been a decline in mining in these once prosperous camps, for with packing at from 10 cents to 15 cents per pound it cannot be expected that a camp like the Fortymile can continue to flourish.
 But these camps going to come back The spirit of those who still stay with the game is undauntcd There is going to be a concerted action to attain what is for the best interest of all If have in the past yielded to the fighting procliYties of any selfish interest are now ready to stand together and help Col Gotwals in his plan to secure funds to enable the road commission work to q general plan of building trunk lines to all sections. This is really the most import work we have on hand. It is constructive, and it spells self preservation. Just enough money to do little patchwork from year to year is gross extrayagance, but enough money to warrant the making of surveys even for trails lecting the best route and staying with it, is economy and produces the desired re- suits

NO SIGN OF PANIC IN COUNTRY.

While the tendency of prices s downward, ant When that is the tendency business slows down in the producing sections of the country, the people mus not expect prices to fall rapidly nor in all lines They not likely to do People need not fear panicky times either. for the Federal Reserve bank ing and currency system is not likely to permit am

 So far there is nothing in sight that should cause Alaskans To do anything rash. They should go about their business in the future in the past There not sign of disaster panic anywhere within Alaska's horizon.

CONFIDENCE IN LIBERTY BONDS.

Governor John U.

In the brief period since her arrival

death. But a few days after she
dropped anchor in "man o'war row.
in the harbor following her arrival
from New York, 100 members of the

A few days later an unprecedented
northerly gale hit the bay and the
Mount Vernon dragged her anchor
almost to the mud flats Once on the
high seas she was forced to turn back
because of stubborn fire in her hold,
a mysterious flooding of her engine

trouble with the crew. She finally
made Vladivostok and on her return
