 At the last meeting of the council, the clerk was instructed to address a letter to officials Of the road build ing organization, setting forth the needs of the district in this regard. And the matter was taken up yer bally with Chairmon Steese during his brief stay in town on Sunday, with the result that the members of the council were assured that the de- sired aid would be given if funds would permit. The matter already has been taken up by the commission to the extent of gathering data rel atlve thereto, and the council will confer with Major Gotwals shortly with a view to getting definite ac' tion. Major Gotwals, who is engin' ger officer of the commission, will be in Nenana within a week or two.
 The council also will endeavor tc interest the Alaska Road Commis' sion in a winter road project which will shorten the distance cOnsidera' bly between Nenana and lower Tan ana river points. The plan is tc have a winter road cut between Ne mana and Minto or some other point on the Hot Springs trail.

 "The present Russian Conscrtpt army consists of three classes-1S99. 1900 and 19OI"-Ec says. "The l. 10000 men are divided into thir- tv-sevon divisions. twenty autonom- ous brirades of infantry thirteen and oue-halG divisions and two auto uomous brigades of cavalry. This makes total of niuety-ive brigade5 of infantry and rorty-uine brigades of cavalry.
 "The principal handicap of the Rus sian army" the military critic con- -snues. lis it's lack Of trained officers. Of the officers 6S per cent. are Of peasant origin. Twelve per cent. are workmeu from the cities and 20 per cent. are of other c.asses. Only 3 per cent. of the army officers were of Gcers in the peace-sime army of the czar.
 Military training in Russia is be- ing pushed rapidly however, and there are ISSS schools turning out of ncers. Taere are twelve higher schools for the various arms or ser vices.
