Cleveland-The possibility that the Railroad Brotherhoods 2, 800, : 900 strong may give their support to the 600,000 mine workers or dered to strike at midnight March 31 was seen today as Cleveland became the center of what may become the greatest mine strike in history. This possibility was revealed in the admission from the Brotherhood officials that "this protective agreement" be- tween the miners and the Broth erhoods will doubtless receive the sanction of the railroad organiza- tionS.

Seattle-John E. Ballaine of Seattle and Seward is considering making the race for the Senate against Senator Miles Poindexter. In 1916 Ballaine made the race for Congress from the First Con- gressional District Of Washington and was defeated. Ballaine re- gently addressed lengthy open letter to Secretary of Interior Fall, in which he gives the Secretary a lot of advice on how to conduct the Alaska railroad, etc. The letter shows that Mr. Ballaine doesn't want much; just a daily train service between Seward and Fairbanks, and a steamship line running direct from Seattle to Seward by way of the Outside route. on a three day schedule. MT. Ballaine has a large number of town lots in the town of Sew ard. If Secretary Fall would heed the advice given in MT. Ballaine's letter there would undoubtedly be a demand for those lots at stiff prices while the Government sub- sidy was on.

Meet
 At Juneau Only
 FiveWeekSAWay
Concerted Action on the Part of Local People Will Put Wrangeu on the Map Edu- cationally-Benefit to Pupils Cannot Be Overestimated.

With the Inter-School Meet at Juneau only five weeks away, the need for concerted action on the part of the people of Wrangell be- comes more and more evident. The drive must be onl
 Everyone is enthusiastic about the Meet. Wrangell wants to be put upon the map educationally. The community is loyal to its school and is anxious to see the pupils who will be chosen for their special ability pitted against the selected pupils ot other schools of this sec ton in debates, declamatory con- tests, spelling, oral and written English, rapid calculation, basket ball and track work. These pu- pills will be responsible for the standing of the Wrangell school at the Meet and they and their teach CTS should have the undivided and firm support of all loyal hearted citizens ot Wrangell.
 Have you any ideas and material on Immigration" the subject as. signed for the high school debate? If you have, pass them on to the school.
 Have you done track workf Then get out with the boys when you can and spur them on to efforts that will make them winners. They practice on the school grounds.
 What about transportation? If it cannot be arranged for Wrangell, Ketchikan and Petersburg to reach the Channel by regular boat ser vice, then what?
 Are you a hnancier? Money is needed to take the selected pupils north. Some of it has been raised, by the P.-T. A. and by the contest last night, but not enough. Each school will be given a pro rata share of the admission proceeds of the contests at Juneau but 1t cannot be determined now how much this will be. What do you think?
 Miss Rees is rehearsing a play in which IS high school pupils will take part. It is a foregone conclu- sion that it will be big success in every way. A high school orches- tra that will give musical selections between acts has been organized and is practicing daily. No one can afford to miss attending Mary Jane's Pa.' The proceeds will go to swell the Meet fund.
 The benefit derived from the Meet to the school and pupils can- not be overestimated. Wrangell has never failed to back a good cause. The driveis onl Altogether now-let's go!
