 Government agents, it is said have for some months past been making in- quiries regarding the feasibility of
 routes over the courses outlined iu an- other column. and. should the expedi- ency of those routes be propen and their advantages and desirahilty made apparent to the postal authorities, it is
 not improbable that contracts over

 At any rate it would seem to be weR
 within the province of the Commercial Club to fortify itself with every fact concerning said routes to the end that it may give every possible aid 10 the postal officials in bringing about the selection of routes that are cofa naensur- aae to the needs and requirements of the people of McGraLh.

Up to the present writing no positive news has been received here eeat'ding the suspension of assessment work on miniug claims. And now one of Ohio's representatives suggests the suspension of the Voistead dry act for a period of thirty days to give the 'boys'' a chance to put John Barleycorn where they think he belongs and thus do away with further wrangling. It's anoihe case of jam oa the top shelf-if the boy knows it's there, well, he must have It; if it isn't there-well, he forgets it.

FOREWORD.

Fore words ordinarily are nothing more than a lot of needless bomb bast on the part of those engaging in new ven- lures in the newspaper field. sometimes meaning much, sometimes nothing mere words at best. For our own pur- pose we will say that today is given to the public the first issue of THE KUSKo TIMES, to be published twice week Wednesday and Saturday.
 1tis nothing more nor less than a venture in new tield-a field that seems most promising. Like any other concern engaged in disposing of it's wares, of whatever character. THE TIMES also has "wares': to sell. name ly, circulation and advertising, and in addition to these, in the early summer, a complete job printing plant will be at the disposal of it's patrons.
 The size of the publication is per haps not as pretentious as we would wish, but. with semi-weekly service, it will be found large enough to cover in brief way the important news of the Outside world, as we'll as all local happenings worth while. Paper stock these days as costly, and many Alaskan papers have been obliged to curtail by issuing less frequently.
 It will be the aim of THE TtMES 10 publish al news worth while-mining, social and otherwise-nOt only locally. hat also from nearby peints-Tacotua Ophir, Cripple, Poorman and Idirarod, likewise from points either or down the kuSkOk vim. To this end THE TIMES invites contributions from those in adjacent places who have any items worthy of publication. In sending the same please sign name, not necessarily for publication, but as evidence of good faith.
 To the many friends-and we seem to meet them everywhere-who have assisted in establishing this pioneer paper of the Kuskok vim Valley, both by words of encouragement ald in substantial aid. ths publisher desires 10 express sincere thanks. To Scotty Clark. Ben Derrick and Sig Wig. who had charge of bringing the newspaper plant from Ruby to Ophir. overa nig- gerhead trail, landing it without a break. and 10 Billy Jones, who landed the plant in McGrath. we also desire to express sincere appreciation. And right here. also, for the numerous courtesies extended the writer while nu his trip to Ruby, by friends of many years standing. as we'll as new ones whom he met. he desires to give full acknowledgement. Those old friends those "young'' boys and girls-well. you can't beat them in any man E country.
