MANY BRIDGES AND TRAILS
 TOBE BUILT

Major John c. Gotwals, engineer of who was in Cordova yesterday on his way to the westward, outlined the plans of his organization so far as it's work in this section for next season is concerned and which is of special in- terest to our readers. He stated that about March 1 crew of men would begin the construction of sled trail from Mile 39, along the Copper River railway, to Katalla where consider abe development is expected in the coal and oil fields.
 Two creeks on the Richardson high way are to be spanned by suspension bridges, the Douglas fir and cable for which are now on their way north. One is 150 feet long and will span Bear creek, near Wortman's road house, and the other is 175 feet long and will cross Sheep creek. The old bridge was carried away last sum- mer.
 Another piling bridge will be placed acros sthe Gakona river as part of the Slate creek trail The work is to begin early next spring.
 The two miles remaining of the Sourdough Hill trail are to be fin ished this year, which will bring the road up to the Nizina river at a point where it is hoped to throw suspen- sion bridge across that treacherous stream Major Gotwals believes this bridge can be built without the plac- ing of pilng in the river, but if it is necessary they will use steel piles driven to a depth of twenty-five feet. The proposed bride will cost approxi- mately $100000.
 It is also the intention of the com mission to put the government trail in as good a condition as possible, so that it will meet all of the require ments of the heavy auto travel ex- pected between Fairbanks and the coast during the coming summer.

ALASKA PACKERS SAY WILL. DONATE CANNED
 SALMON TO STARVING

Although not in a position to make each contributions of material size to the fund for the relief of starving European children, Alaska salmon canners are ready to donate canned salmon if the Hoover committee for European relief will accept such do nations, declares A. F. zopf, general manager for the Carlisle Packing Company, in telegram to Gov Thomas Riggs. MT. Zipf was ap pointed as chairman for the Seventh district in the drive for funds and wired his acceptance.
 With millions of cases of last years's pack on hand which they are unable to dispose of, and conditions unfavorable, the Alaska packers dc not feel justified in making any big cash contributions. Speaking of his offer to donate food in place of cash. MT. Zipf wires: No better nourishment nor more wholesome food can be procured than canned salmon. Assurances can be given Hoover committee that any salmon supplied, guaranteed and inspected by the Alaska Pacific Fisheries thus as surfing all concerned of the whole someness of the salmon furnished"
 Mir. Zipf also states that efforts are being made to sell MT. Hoover's committee a considerable quantity of canned salmon for shipment to Eu rope and use in feeding the millions of hungry children.

that it was too late to cut Harle off

NO BOLD, BAD
BANDIT THERE

Sheriff Matt Sankey holds a
grudge against all broom corn bail.
ers in general and one in particular
today.
At a late hour last night the
Sheriff was called from his peaceful
slumbers by party who had been
indulging in the equestrian art along
a lonely road northeast of the city.
Stories of higwaymen, that would put
William S. Hart or Harry Curry to
shame, pored from the frightened
party.
When Sheriff Sankey and Jailor
Bob Wilson in company with one of
the excited men rushed to scene all
that could be discovered was a
broken down broom corn bailer. The
party admitted that the bailer might
have scared the horses and imagin-
airy highwaymen caused the rush to
the sheriff's office.
