ST. THOMAS, Nev.-As though the
seventh of the tabled cities of Cibola
so long sought by Coronado and the
Spanish adyenturers were at last dis
covered, Ell Pueblo Grande, the Lost
City of Nevada, has recently been in
troduced to the modern world in vivid
pageant around its partially recon
structed ruins. And at that there
may be some wisp of fact in the use
Of the legendary name, for the Zuni
Indian artisans brought here from
New Mexico to rebuild in their own
fashion some Of the already exca-
waited houses Immediately recognized
the vast prehistoric city as one of the
great pueblos their legends had placed
as far toward the setting sun.
The zunis did their work we'll, and
in introducing it to several thousand
people assembled from all parts of
the country, the reproductions Of the
dwellings Of the folk Of so many CEN
turtles ago framed a pageant Of color
full beauty depicting the activities of
the prehistoric past as those very
ancient walls knew it, and tracing
later progress through the coming of
more recent Indians, the arrival Of the
white men, and the present develop
ment of the State Of Nevada.
The celebration announcing the ex-
cavation and reconstruction Of these
vast prehistoric domiciles which al.
though within twenty miles of the
main Union Pacific rail line between
Los Angeles and Salt Lake were first
discovered but few months ago, was
under the personal supervision of Gov
ernor James G.. Scrugham Of Nevada.
Prominent among those present was
also another figure of note, John Arm

millionaire, of who's loony now?'
fame, whose cryptic query on the oc-
casion Of his brother, Sheriff Bob"
Chaloners marriage to Lima Caveliri,
started new vogue in national slang.
Chaloner, interested in the Lost City
by Governor Scrugham, financed the
reconstruction which showed the
gathered throngs in complete detail
what the ancient dwellings looked
like. In his new role Of rebuilder of
the prehistoric west, Chaloner prefers
the pseudonym Of "Sagebrush Jack"
and he is doing his best to look the
part.
The pageant was conducted on the
old dwellings under blaze of yaN-
colored lights, and in its unusually
defective portrayal, both Zuni and
Piute Indians took part, together with
the white people who represented pho
neers of the conquering race. Begin
ming with the introduction by the
Spirit Of History, the children Of the
past. the prehistoric peoples, the

LOS ANGELES.-With "a hours
after a series of earthquakes had left
the city of Santa Barbara IN ruins,
plans were under way to reconstruct
the city. William @. McAdoo, former
secretary of treasury under President
Wilson, led number of financiers in

terests will provide revolving fund
Of two and one-half million dollars for
the purpose of rebuilding the business
section Of Santa Barbara.
The first earthquake occurred at
6:44 on the morning of June 20, fol
lowed by a heavier quake about Is
minutes later. Loss of life was not
large because many took warning
from the first shock and fled to
safety.
Estimates OF loss reach as high as
$40, O00,O 900. Known dead has reached

Spanish conquistidores and the mis-
sionaries, Leddiah, Smith and his men,
the Mormon pioneers and the later
whites were all shown in historic de-
tail. The scenes of prehistoric life
were planned under the direction of
DR.. M. R. Harrington, head Of the
staff of the Museum of the American
Indian, in charge of excavation and
reconstruction; Charles V. Turbyfiil
of the same staff of the Heye Founda-
ton and Louis Shellback I'LL, who
represented the State of Nevada and
Governor Scrugham in the reconstruc-
ton work. Ancient and historical de-
tail was preserved in unusual fidelity,
traditional costumes being used by the
Indians and most of the dress worn
by the whites were original garments
which came across the plains.
In the prehistoric city which is ap-
proximately one mile wide and five
miles long, the throngs of today saw
the opened graves with the occupants
lying undisturbed among their weap-
ons and household goods, which DR..
Harrington estimates have lain for
between 1900 and 1000 years, and in
addition saw similar original domes-
tic arrangements placed as though
ready for use in the rebuilt dwelling
Of the Zunis' tabled ancestors.

ton withdrew from their work on the
Lost City June 1, and will return to
take up the work Of excavation and
further reconstruction in October

and little to induce immigration save the scenery and fish. Judge Wicker sham looks at the Territory through the eyes of a pioneer seeing the vast possibilities extended in case develop ment is allowed to proceed unchecked and unhampered by governmental reg ulations under the guise of conserva- ton. He knows that an empire i'll the making lies dormant awaiting the magic touch of capital to transform It into a veritable treasure house for the nation. He knows the difference between travel by dogsled and by au- tomobile, and realizes that Alaska is forging ahead because he has the knowledge of comparison between past and present whereas Congressman Free sees things as they are at the present time and has no knowledge of conditions in the past.
 Transportation in Alaska is as cheap as it can be made until more tonnage is provided. It may be true that each family in Alaska costs the government s3OO0, but it must be re- membered that ninety per cent of the cost comes from useless bureaus and useless officials, whose interest in the Territory extends as far as their sal ary and no farther.
 Alaska today is as California was ill 1870. It has the advantage of mod ern improvements and modern trans portation, but lacks the population of California at that period. The Ter ritory has shown that it can support a population of million or more in comfort, but it must have an oppor- tunity to open it's resources and pro- vide jobs for these millions.
 Alaska seen through the eyes of a visitor is an object of curiosity and commiseration. Seen through the eyes of an Alaskan it is Home.

A DIFFERENCE IN OPINIONS

In yesterdays issue of the Gateway the opinions of two men were given as to the development of Alaska by the government railroad. Congress man Free of California said the road started nowhere and ended nowhere, and in the fitness of his wisdom elaborated on how much better roads and trails would have been, forgetting apparently that roads and trails with no place to go would be as useless as he claims the railroad is.
 On the other hand we have the statement of James Wickersham, for mer delegate to congress from Alaska, former judge of the Territory, and a man who is perhaps better posted on the development of Alaska, it's re- sources and it's needs than any other living man. Mir. Wickersham declares the railroad is developing the country at a rapid rate and sees much i'm provement in conditions here since his last trip north. His words of confi- dence and optimism are refreshing when one considers the different brands of wisdom expressed by two men whose judgment is widely diver gent. Congfessman Free sees the Territory through the eyes of an out slider, with small businesses, squalor

that it will be impossible to establish a market until bunkers are built TOT the reason that at the present prlce Alaskan operators cannot compete with Outside mines where coal IS run directly into the ship from the bunkers. If Alaskan coal could be mined and handled as cheaply as Out side coal there is no doubt but that it would be used in every home Tn Alaska, as it is better coal and IS home product

Seward can never fully appreciate the boosting given this section by Captain O. A. Johansen of the steam ship Starr, until the good captain is gone from out midst. Without doubt the town has no more optimistic citi- zen and none who works as hard to build up the town. For the past four years the Captain has talked Seward to his passengers and to residents of the westward until he has diverted large quantity of business this way. Seward should show it's appreciation of his efforts by standing behind him and assisting him in every way pos sible.

It is said that truth crushed to earth will rise again, but error, wounded, writhes in pain and dies amid her worshippers.
