Once more the treacherous Nizina claims a victim, and one whom we can ill spare from our midst, who btavely rode into the swirling waters with a smile on his face and was unafraid. He knew as we know. the dan, gers of that stream, yet his bus mess necessitated him making the trip to Chisana, the only trail to which lies through the Nizlna River.
 It is only by an act of Provid- ence that the one who reclaim ed poor John Underwood from these Waters is alive today, to give us the details of the terrible accident which took place on the afternoon of the 27th of July. He took his own life in his hands when he rode into swimming depth endeavoring to save his friends life, and was in the wa ter for a considerable time and then only recovered the mortal remains by superhuman efforts
 Time and time again we, and other Alaskan publishers, have made reference to the dangers of the river, and the necessity of bridge. but the fact remains that it is still taking it's coll of human life.
The McCarthy weekly news., 1921-07-30

The Alaska people have rep utation in Washington of being kickers and soreheads. One of the papers of South-easte Tn Al aska maintains that we are en titled to that reputation, if ex-- pressing our opinions of matters federal and territorial makes us earn it. The bridge matter is both territorial and federal, & we have just cause for con- plaint. It was gross negli- gence on the part of the last ad ministration that is responsible for the condition that exists to- day. Gan we hope for better from this administration?

trail in order that tourists may travel comfortably to the inter- for, but not one dollar is being spent toward the building of d bridge to safeguard the lives of those Who aid in developing the country.
 For years we have waited and are still waiting. getting promises but promises will not save lite. Twenty five lives in this section of the river alone, anc It was estimated ten years ago that thirty six had met their deaths by drowning in the lower part of the river and on into the Chitina, up to that time. In those days before the railroad was built, the river was used ex 1 tensively when travel came fro m the Coast We admit the fact that bridges have been built but not substantial enough to stand any high water and it is certain ly up to the Road Commission to see thtt an apOrOpr iatiOn is made from their funds to assist in the bridge building. We have d territorial appropriation of S25, ] OOO.OO towards the expense of new structure, but not a cent l of this money has been used in any way and it looks as if this appropriation is one big bluff.
 In the meantime some steps should be taken towards ferry being put in operation immed- lately. Last year a prospector ran ferry and no lives were lost, tho he could not attempt it this year on account of less trav- el, he states however, he would run any season if the Govern ment would allow him a bonus.
 If this so called bridge fund is not going to be used for bridge, why ill the Sam Hill can't it be used for this purpose?
 None have a better right than the citizens of Mccarthy to de. mand that mans life be made safe, there are only a few of us left and all are more or less in- terested in mining on the other side of the Nizina, which in- cludes the Chitina and Chisana camps, cheerfully giving up their time and money, also risk ing their lives for the develop ment of their properties, and what cooperation have they had from the Government?
 This is a serious matter, petit ions, private letters, and articles
