And Here Is
How Come

When I left here in 1918
the boom of the previous
year had blown up and
things were looking pretty
tough. | had made money
in 1917 as every one else
had and like the rest had
bought some of nearly ev-
erything that was offered
with the result that ! had a
bunch of oil stocks of ev-
cry kind and color which at
that time appeared to be
worthless.
I dropped these in the
bottom of my trunk and
forgot them until a few
days ago when l dug them
out, took them to a broker
and after he had looked
them over gave me a check
for more money than
thought there was in the
whole world.
Oh, boy, here I was cry
ing with a loaf of bread in
my hand and didn't know
il. The first thing I did was
to square the debts | had
made and patronize some
of the merchants who had
offered me credit and sur
prised them by laying down
the cold hard cash. Then |
went out to look at some-
thing. | went out to Salt
Creek where the Evans Oil
Corporation is drilling a
well and gave it the double
o. Say, If those boys don't
bring in a real he-boy gush-
err that will pay for another
Louisiana purchase and
about half of Alaska, then
! don't know my stuff, and
that land in Pine Mountain
will take care of the ball
ance.
Then | beat it over to the
office at Room 2 in the
Zuttermeister Building and
laid down two thousand
smackers for the same num-
Der of shares, and I'll tell
the world I'm sitting pretty
right now. In a few more
weeks Pm going to buy the
biggest car in town and
take myself a long trip see
ing the world on the profits.
Lady Luck is sure workin'
overtime for me right now.

The deal for the purchase of the H. F. Dott & Company business, deal CTS in typewriteis. adding machines and supplies. by Jack B. Burford and the changing Of the name of the firm to the J. B. Burford Company was closed today it was announced by MT. Dott and Mr Burford, the lat ter taking oyer the control and man. agement of the business The pur- chase of the business by Jack Bur ford is the result of four years of hard work and study on h.s part. He is very young man at the pres ent time and began his career in the work as an office boy and appren- tice four years aso when the com pany was owned hy L. s. Hewitt.
 Two years ago the business was purchased from Mr Hewitt by II. F. Dott and became the H. F. Dott Company. Burford was able to take small stock in the business and last winter he spent several months in California studying the mechanism and repair of typewriters and adding with the Burrows people. He returned north this spring since when his work has been in demand in various parts of the territory and he has made several business trips to the southern district and the west ward. He is perhaps the only skilled man at this trade in Alaska at the present time.
 While he has worked Burford ha ]; saved and when the opportunity was offered he was able to take over the entire business.
 In speaking of his successor in the business today to a representative of the Empire MT. Dott said, "I cannot speak highly enough of Jack Burford's business ability and efficiency in this line of business. I know that he will make success in the work and that he will give his best to the business people of the Territory who demand his service"
 Burford has spend most of his life in Juneau and lived for several years in Valdez when he was younger. He

ARC. ESTIMATES. s1,6OO,000, PASS
 WAR DEP APARTMENT
Steese's Estimates for Next Year Sent to Budget
 Bureau for Approval.

Estimates submitted by the Alas ka Road Commission to the War De partment and approved by il, call foe S1 600 900 for the annual A. R. c. ap Iropriation next year for roads and trails in Alaska. it was learned to- day. The Commissions figures have been submitted to the Bureau Of Budget with the regular annual est mates of the Department.
 It is realized that, in keeping with the procedure which it has followed since it was created. the Bureau of Budget will reduce the total War De partmont budget which will neeessi tate the local Commissions estimates being decreased proportioEately. Con fdence was expressed, however, that the 192425 appropriation for roads and trails will be in excess of $1.- 900 900.
 "The visits to Alaska of many members of Congress during this sum mer will make it easier to defend our estimates for roads and trails said Col. James c. Steese today. Almost without exception, he said, these Senators and Representatives who were in Alaska this summer have re cognized the necessity for increased Federal appropriations for building rca.s.
 In President Harding's last pub licly delivered address at Seattle, he recommended increased appropria- tions for roads, saying in this con nection:
 "In another direction there is justi- floation for a more liberal disposi- tion-that of road and trail building. He also referred to the importance of building feeder wagon roads and trails to the Alaska Ra''iGad
 Col. Steesa is confident '.at both the Bureau of Budget and Congress will deal more literally With the oom- missions estimates this year than ever before. He expects to leave here about November 1st, and 60 be on the ground when the War De- partment bill comes up before the House appropriations committee for consideration.
 Col Steese and Capt. P. A. Agnew will leave Juneau tonight on the Estabeth for Uaines and will spend two or three days there going over the road system around llaines and out to Rainy Hollow They will re- turn to Juneau Thursday evening, Both officers will 1eave here on he steamer Alaska, Sept. 4th, for An chorage for a short absence from local headquarters.

ing his wife. The foreman of the Filipino crew told the Court he tried to get the Indians to leave, and the bookkeeper said he finally made Law renee quit fighting and leave.
 Judge Paine, after hearing all the testimony, discharged Reyes and told Lawrence to keep away from Aux Bay and not to bother Reyes and Mary any more. "I married Reyes and Mary and as long as they are satisfied you leave them alone" he warned the Indian. You had hard luck. First you lost your girl and now you have got whipping. If you don't stay away from them I'll send for you and put you under peace bonds" he concluded his warning. Reyes was also warned against using weapons in settling his difficulties and allowed to return to Aux Bay.

The United States vs. D. c. Reyes, Filipino, charged with assault with dangerous weapon on the complaint of Frederick Lawrence, defendant dismissed. Ali of which doesn't sound exciting as it appears on the records of the U. S. Commissioners Court, but as it was told, and acted before Judge " A. Paine, it had more elements of trouble in it than a Donnybrook Fair.
 After all the evidence was In, 1t seemed that the base of the case lay in the elopement of one Mary Peters, an 1S-yearold Indian girl, and her marriage to Reyes, the defendant in the above mentioned case. Mary was already engaged through the medium of her grandmother to a member of her own race, Frederick Lawrence Grandmother objected to the Filipino Indian alliance but was unable tc break it up.

Lawrence told the Judge he came to get some presents from Mary-a wrist watch and a ring Reyes said Lawrence told him ht had come to get Mary.

 Lawrence, his face decorated with a gorgeous "shiner,' told Judge Paine story of alleged unprovoked assault of which he was chief vic tim and sufferer and his relatives minor casualties. Filiplnos, three il number, had 'ganged" him, hit him with an iron pipe and Reyes had threatened him with a rife. The younger Lawrence, sobbed out ar even worse account of the affair and the "almost cousin corroborated both. Father Lawrence, whose Eng fish proved inadequate to the task, must have awed the shade of the late Joseph Jefferson. Sr., by his realistic acting. He was voluble with his hands and face, and, as he re- counted the evil that befell the In dian race at the cannery, one could almost see the army of Aguinaldo armed with rifles, or maybe it was axes or knives, Lawrence, Sr., said it might have been all of them, fall on the defenseless Indians.
 Reyes story, partally corroborated by other testimony, was to the eff feet that the Indians came to take his wife away. He said he fought Lawrence alone, gave him his black eye and other decorative marks of note, in preventing him from reach. ing Mary. He admitted going to cabin and getting rife but said he did it for the purpose of protect.
