Yukon. because you were in the Nome
stampede, because you wintered i'll the
Arctic, because YOU helped organize
and are life member Of the Pioneers.
the Eagles, the Walrus Society, and
the Arctic Brotherhood, and last but
not least, because you have done more
for Alaska than any man ii America,
and with all eloquence, unsurpassed.

You're getting old, Bill Your
mushing days are over. but you don't
change much; you are the same old
Bill-genial, sunshiny and democratic.
From all that we can see, you still
have the vision Of the seer. the pep
Of the pioneer, the enthusiasm of
youth, and the maternal love Of the
Great Northland.
We are glad you are with us again
in Fairbanks. The boys from the
creeks, and all of us, welcome you
with fraternal greetings that bring to
memory many fond recollections Of
the good old days-gone forever!
We listen to your optimism about
Alaska, and her coming glory; about
the new strike and the next stampede:
about helping Dan Sutherland in Con
gress; about the money you will get
for Judge Bunnel to 60 forward with
our college; about helping Col Steesc
build the roads, and the trails, and the
bridges; about extending the Govern
ment railroad from Fairbanks to Nc
earthly; about opening UP the Tanana.
the Chisana, and the White River
Valleys; about dissipating the clouds
Of ignorance in the East concerning
Alaska and the greatness OF her un-
developed resources.
We listen, Bill" and it all sounds
good to Us.
You're real he-man, "Bilr'-a true
sourdough, genuine Alaskan.

Montgomery Man Will Likely
 Recover From Accident
(state Capital Bdreau)

MONTGOMERY, Ala, July 25.-- Chester l.. Ingram, chief mechanic of the fire department, may recover from the accident in which a shaft of a wagon was sent through his body late Thursday, according to a report today from the infirmary to which he was carried. The accident occurred on South, Perry street, when the pump of the fire department was answering a call to burning automobile.
 South Perry street contained large number of automobiles parked in the middle of the street. A neg Pro driver of a wagon, had left his horse in the street. He shied when the big fire en- zine approached and because of the lack of space in the street due to the park ing the machine ran into the wagon. The tongue struck Ingram and went through his body. Physicians and surgeons said Ingram had an excellent chance of recovery if pertitiontis does not set in.
 John B. Gardner, hoseman of the company, which answered the call, re- ceived a broken collar bone and minor injuries in the same accident. He will recover, according to the declaration of surgeons attending him. jt s.
