A Protest Against Present

If 1 had the lamp of Alladin, acme wonderful things I'd do.
 If yon have moment to listen I'll mention one to you. First of all, on each lawmaker, a lifelong tax I'd impose, because tax se- ems to be the nature of those who to Juneau go.
 By action of our legislature a tax now does impose on the hide of the rat or weasel, for waat purpose no one knows. The mink and the marten also their mite must give. The Warden says, s"Ill warn you one boys," if in this country you want to live. Emergency they say is the purpose, 1 think it's against our will, their figures on taxation is like hootch from still
 Many a poor and hon est pros pector his grubStalle has tried to make in this, God s free country a few of natures furs to take
 Just look at our millionaire trappers, and our wealthy pros pectors too, and all Of the well to-do Natives who can hand this to you.
 Now, to one and all what's the incentive? This applies to our lawmakers too. it's the percent age check you're after, instead of encourage, we'll tax you.
 It seems to me it would be bet ter to encourage the few who are left, God knows Alaska needs them, this tax has heft. Oh, yes I'd almost forgotten, the fox. whose fur is blue, it did not es. cape the attention of this bunch the chosen few. The man who spends his money for i'm prove ments and for this fox of blue license if he is to continue, & a tax on what he raises too.

OF LOCAL INTEREST ANOTHER CANDIDATE

Charley Veach, an employee at the Bonanza mine, was down this week to Mccarthy and vi cinity with a petition for the ap- pointment of Jack Reynolds as U. s. Deputy Marshal for this precinct. This petition vas sign. ed by a number of the residents of Kennecott and by the miners on the hill.
 We did not hear of any sigma lures being secured here as tbe Mccarthy residents had already endorsed H. H. Mitchell for this appointment.
The McCarthy weekly news., 1922-02-18

It seems pretty tough that we should have to ask the Road Com missisn to build wagon road to parallel railroad in Alaska at this time, but I am well a. ware of the reason for it and so is Col. Steese, and there is no good reason why the Copper River Railroad should not give rates between Kennecott and Chitina, at least such as would help out i'll the prospecting and development of the country.
 To be seeking an outlet from Mccarthy by way of Valdez when there is a railroad running right down to tide water, would sound a little peculiar to the ap- propriationS committee in Con- gross, and yet it would serve to call their attention to the condit- ions that prevail in the Copper mining section of Alaska

The McCarthy weekly news., 1922-02-18

Some time ago I wrote you regarding a petition signed by miners of Fairbanks and your vicinity asking for a road from Chitina to Mccarthy. 1 have taken this matter up With Col. Steese and any allotment for that project will depend wholly on the amount he obtains from Congress. for this years work.
 Col. Steese is asking for one million dollars and if ho gets It 1 believe ho would spend some on that project, but inasmuch sa Congress is in a period of re- trenchment it is a question in my mind as to whether lie gets the amouent he asks for.
 l am doing the best can to help him get it and Governor Bone will be here in a few days to lend his aid in the matter.

Tribute Paid to Memory of Founder
Of Christian Temperance Union.

An unusually interesting meeting OF
the Woman's Christian Temperance
Union was held Monday at the Log
Cabin club house, the use OF which
was rendered for this special occasion
through the courtesy OF the Woman's

ute in a beautiful program to the
great temperance leader Frances K.

falls on February 18th. The appro-
pirate decorations were entirely III
white japonicas and narcissi, being at
tractively arranged in baskets and
vases. The short, bright program had
many appealing features and held the
closest attention of the large audi
ence. A stirring musical number was
followed by a deeply impressive scrip
ture lesson by Mrs. w. T. Bartlett,
who gave something OF the history
OF the temperance movement begun
by Mother Thompson" and the rea-
sons which led to the selection OF the
40 Psalm as the Crusade Psalm. p"

CHEATHAM INSPECTS
THE RURAL ROUTES
INVESTIGATION IS MADE AS
TO THE MAIL SERVICE IN
TERRELL COUNTY.

By direction of the postoffice de-
partment, Postmaster w. B. Cheat
ham and other postmaster through
out the country have recently made
an inspection OF the rural routes from
their offices. The purpose was that
they might ascertain by personal OBJ
servation and make report whether the
roads used were in good condition Tor
travel, the routes we'll arranged, boxes
properly erected, so as to easily be
reached by the carriers without dlttl-
Guilty and without obstructing travel,
the carriers serving their routes as
officially prescribed, the schedule OBJ
served, and whether the families serv-
ed were satisfied with the service rem
dered, >or there were Improvements
which could be suggested in the IN
terest of the patrons or the depart
ment.
1t became necessary, in connection
with the inspections, to request many
patrons to take action to the end that
their boxes might conform with the
regulations as to kind, condition, loca-
ton, or height, and in having the
name of the owner plainly printed on
them. Also to bring to the attention
OF road overseers or other responsible
persons the need for improvement in
roads or repair or construction OF cul-
verts or bridges.
Cooperation of Patrons Desired.
1t is the desire OF the department,
and its purpose, to provide adequate
4 IN
be possible, to all persons residing in
rural communities, but this end can
not be attained without the full CO.
operation OF the patrons in the efforts
OF postmasters and carriers to serve
them promptly, regularly and salts
factorily.
Whatever facilitates the work OF
the carrier is of direct benefit to the
patrons, for the greater the ease and
speed with which carrier may cover
his route the earlier and better the
service afforded.
So patrons OF rural delivery can
greatly help themselves by helping
their carrier, seeing to it that roads
are kept in good condition and prompt
" opened after storms, by keeping
the approaches to their boxes clear,
and by promptly and willingly cor
recting any irregularities affecting
their boxes when asked to do so.
Another great assistance that pa
irons can render carriers is by keeping
themselves supplied with and using
stamps instead OF placing unstamped
mail, with money for the purchase OF
the required postage, in the boxes.
This delays carriers and sometimes
imposes a great hardship on him, cS-
pecially in cold or stormy weather. II
preferred stamped envelopes, either
printed or plain, may be obtained from
the carrier. They are OF good quality,
cost but little more than the value OF
the stamps upon them, and are re-
deemable at the value Of the stamps
if damaged, but returned in a prac-
tically whole condition. II necessary
to place money in box it should be
put in coin holding receptacle or
be properly wrapped SO as to be east
~ picked up by the carrier.
Money for the purchase OF money
orders should not be left in the box
es, but should be handed to the car
rier and a receipt obtained.

MISS VALONIA WATSON IS
CLAIMED BY GRIM REAPER
Death Came at Home Near Brentwood
After Illness of a Few Days.

A sad death which occurred in our
community on February 3rd was that
of Miss Valonia Watson, daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. F. M. Watson, sr. She
was sick only a few days before the
end came, and suffered great pain,
most especially on the last day, though
all was done that medical aid could
do, but was OF no avail. God knows
best, and although it is hard to give
her up we ought to say: Gods will,
and not ours, be done.
Valonia was good, quiet, Christian
girl, a faithful and loving daughter,
and to know her was to love her. Her
life should be an example for others.
Besides her parents and numerous
friends she leaves the following sis
tiers and brothers to mourn her death:
Messrs. ]. B., ]. S. and F. NJ. Watson,
jr.. Mrs. S. R. Weston, Mrs. Wade
Weston, Misses Jennie Mae, Sallie
and Eloise Watson, all OF Brentwood,
and Mrs. Ralph Grimes, of Miller
county. To them we extend our heart
felt sympathy, and may God be with
them and comfort them in this their
darkest hour
Dear ones. weep not for thy loved
one; she has gone on before to that
happy home not made by hands, to
await your coming.
A precious one from us has gone,
A voice we loved is stilled
A place is vacant in our home
Which never can be filled
ONE WHO LOVED HER.
