the Partisan is a Henry County

something in the paper to directly
interest various communities of tn
county.
The Partisan is proud of its large
number of county subscribers, which
we believe is the largest number o.
any weekly newspaper in the South
and is happy always to boost theil

SCOTT SAYS CONDITIONS

Walter F. Scott, former member of the local office force of the A. l.. N. company, who went Outside dur ing the early part of the winter, was returning passenger on last nights train from the end of steel, and he says he is mighty glad to get back. Conditions on the Pacific coast, he says, are fully as bad as they have been pictured. with unemployment increasing at an alarming rate, and prices still high in many localities, especially in California.
 MT. Scott was in San Francisco during the time that the alleged gangsters were on trial for alleged assaults on girls on Howard street, and the impression prevailed there at that time that the men wcra being railroaded, in what appeared to be an effort on the part of the author ities to satisfy the demanis of re- formers.
 Mir. Scott saw many oldtimers in Seattle and elsewhere along the coast who were talking of returning to Alaska and he predicts that there will be quite a rush during the spring and early summer. He walked over the trail, between steel, and caught the train at Healy for Ne mana.

COL. STEESE IS RETIRED;
 RESTORED TO ACTIVE LIST

Announcement was recently made at Juneau of the retirement of Col. James Gordon Steese from active duty in the regular army and of his immediate reassignment to active duty as president of the Alaska Road commission, which position he has held since last June.
 Col. Steese. who was ordered to report at Washington last November appeared before a retirement board for examination at San Francisco, on his way East, the examination re- sulting in his being placed on the retired list on account of an old dis ability which, however, in no way effects his ability for his pres ent service.
 Col. Steese expects to leave Wash ing ton for his headquarters at Jun eau about February 20. He will re- main in Seattle about a week and should reach there March l.

CHECHACOS ARE WARNED
 OF KUSKOKWIM CONDITIONS

Territorial Mine Inspector B. D. Stewart has issued warnings for the benefit of prospectors from the Out side who are planning a stampede to the Kuskokwim district on the strength of the glowing reports of finds" in that region. The inspector says the gold fields of the Kusko- kwim will require the expenditure of both time and money before mines can be put on a paying asis and his advice to chechacos is that no one should go into the district unless he can provide himself with an outfit and make himself com >pletely independent of outside work.
 The inspector says that reports of quartz discoveries in the Kuskokwim valley have not been exaggerated.

NELL AWARDED DECISION
 IN SUIT OVER RYDER MINE

Suit for an accounting of a quar- ter interest in the Premier mine. in the Portland canal district, insti- tuted by Maurice Bacon against R E. K. Neill, was decided recently at Spokane in favor of Neill, in an opinion filed by Federal Judge Rud- kin.
 The suit was based on an alleged partnership agreement and the quar- ter interest was estimated by the plaintiff, mining engineer, to be valued at s2,5OO,OOO. and by the defendant at $25O,OOO.
 The opinion was lengthy one and featured the statement that in two cases the plaintiff, Bacon, had influenced witnesses and had lack ed good faith in not bringing the suit in 1917 when he first knew of Neill's operations, but waited until December, when the mine had proved to be of worth.

The successful liquidation of the affairs of the defunct Scandinavian American bank, of Tacoma, which failed recently, is said to depend largely upon the ability of Jafet Lindeberg, pioneer Nome mining man, to pay the money he owes the institution. A number of the off, cials of the bank are former flask ans. The direct cause of the failure is said to have been an attempt of the bank to erect a costly new bank i building on short money.
 Operating losses of the Alaska Packers association for 1920 were s757,659.25, but the concern had net earnings from the insurancs fund of s4O0,659.61 and paid dividend of $50 share.
