ASK HOW COME

Radio fans in the tri-city area
heard no concert from woo last
night.
Fifteen hundred of them kept
telephone wires burning during the
evening hours and this morning to
find out why. Scores of others
didn't waste any time-they just
bundled their little $6.4S sets down
to the electric shop and demanded
service.
A generator which broke shortly
before the hour for the evening
concert and was still out of COM
mission this afternoon, was the
cause of the disappointment. Wire
less station officials said they hop
ed to be able to resume their con-
certs tonight on schedule.

good on his new, Alaska line which
runs from tidewater at Seward and
Anchorage, across the mountains

/. add more Pullman sleeping
coaches and baggage cars At
present the road is operating 80
passenger coaches. TIC freight
cars and 236 cars of miscellaneous
nature. making total of 1872 cars.
In addition to the railroad, the
government also is operating two
river transports to connect the
lover river points with the road.
These boats will connect with mos
quito fleets operating on the
smaller rivers of the interior and
viii serve to hook up the entire
section In one gerat transporta-
uch system.
Coal ID one OF the big items on
tho freight bills on this transpor-
tntlon system. The coal is taken
from the mines along the railroad
and sent to al parts of the interior

With q good supply Of coal at

1le to mine large areas Of frozen

Bell may appear before the board
and ask an appropriation to permit

how first deputy to Sheriff John G.
Miller, is in line for the appoint
ment in event the board of, super

cover salary and expenses inciden-
tai to the services Of an fnvesti-

The name of Thomas Cox as q

8idered as a serious candidate
against Hanna now, however.
A special >investiaetor for Thu

ers greater even than the chief Of

It would be his duty to secure evi.

position to trace down evidence d

and execute them without the as
sistance Of any other police agency
