tany's river camps, Nos. A, 5 and 6.
They may, when first you see them, have left
those river camps only four hours before. That
means that their voyage was q happy one,
through high, swift water. But, too, they may
have been n month upon their journey, for there
are many evils to lure logs waywardly inclined,
inviting shallow spots and brush upon 1.-THE
wings" 1.-THE banks); or, more difficult for them
to pass, a 'center JAM in the river, where half a
million or even two million feet of timber may be
piled, apparently beyond any human ability ever
to send them on again.
But always they are sent on again. Easily,
smoothly. In the lumber game there is s~atisfac-
ton in the conquering of such obstacles. And
through the process run many and bewildering
kinds of skill.
Into the River.
Early in May, at camp No. 4-the farthest of
the river camps from Bonner-five or six million
feet Of timber were "decked to the river" in a
great, brown, bark-covered mountain. Across the
Blackfoot, high on a bank, droned a caterpillar
tractor, putting petulantly, its steel cable tug
ging at the mountain of wood; jerking at the logs
until, time after time, it drew half a dozen of
them at once toward the bank on its own side,
where they were released and given over to the
stream.
The log drive, picturesque and ~coIorful as it is,
has no formal opening. 1t starts when the ice
first yields in the spring, and the pioneer log of
them all starts its solitary journey down the
river. But there is a time when the drive is most
intense, and that period this year was from May
! to May IL.

 Seward at the present time for the purpose of seeking financial co-opera
 tion from Seward people for a pro posed steamship line operating from
 Alaska to the Orient, whereby if the
 people of Alaska are willing to cooper
 ate certain business firms in the
 Orient will show their good faith by
 seeing 1t through This is the message
 conveyed to sewardites by Mr. Toll
 efsen in his talk yesterday before the local Chamber of Commerce, and in an Interview with The Gateway.
 From this part of the Territory lit is planned to ship the larger propor- tion of fish and from southeastern Alaska lumber Every kind of fish finds a ready market in the two coun. tries named, Mr. Tollefsen continued, including any kind of scrap fish. The Alaska deer meat will command ready sale in Japan. Cargoes from the Orient will comprise the bulk of commodi- ties now being imported to Alaska.
 The fish market is principally in China where during the past year it is said from nine to ten millions of dollars have been imported; the bulk of this from British Columbia.
 Last year Japan imported 60O,000 tons of herring fertilizer. Already, he added, much Chinese and Japanese products are coming to the Territory but the majority of Alaskans do not know this. He pointed out this espec- ialy was true in the importation of eggs and great quantities of pottery.
 Under the name of the Oriental Co., operative Corporation, the company was incorporated in the spring of this year, Mr. Tellefsen stated, and he has an option on $500 ton steamer at Shanghai which can be purchased at reasonable sum. This vessel has cold storage facilities for 500 tons and pas senger accommodations for 40, first class. In every respect the steamer is ideally equipped for a venture of this sort in the early stages, especially.
 The sum of approximately S3O,00O is the goal set by the promoters of this proposed company which sum, according to MT. Tollefsen, will be suf- ficient for the Oriental firms to real ize the good intentions of the people of Alaska in that they are desirous of having such trade relations estab- llshed. With this amount on hand the company could immediately begin op- erations. The endorsement of many of the most prominent and influential business people of southeastern Alas 1 ka has already been obtained, MT. Tol- l ofsen- added. There are many other features connected with | he formation of such a service which | can best be explained by MT. Tollef- sen himself which he will be only to | glad to do for anyone wishing to znow additional plans. He is remain ng in the city for several days.

Several breweries in Walkerville,
Riverside and Windsor are working
night and day to build up a stock
for release to the invading throng.
They are also building large addi-

Indicative of the feverish real
estate transactions is the effort of
an American to purchase a small
piece of land mile beyond the city
limits of Windsor for $1,000. Last
summer the parcel sold for $500 and
the owner has announced he will not

WINDSOR, Ont, April 22.-Can-
ada's border cities are undergoing
elaborate alterations in anticipation
of the day when three million some
odd parched Americans will swarm
across the st. Clair river to legally
quench a nine-year thirst.
Early in May the government will
throw open it's liquor stores and from
that time on Windsor-only eight
minutes by ferry from the United
States-will become the funnel for
Canada's great liquor rush.
There will be beers, ales, imported
wines and hard spirits aplenty-all

vision.
But there will be no saloons.
Many LOOphOIes
The Canadian parliament carefully
inserted in it's bill restoring liquor to
the provinces the provision that
there must be no public drinking.
But the loopholes are numerous.
Like CALIFORNIA; gold rush, the
western stampede for oil and Flor
ida's real estate boom, Windsor's
property values have doubled almost
over night. American syndicates,
sensing the fortunes to be made
from the influx, have besieged prop
erty owners with extravagant offers.
The border cities consist of Wind
sor, Ford, Walkerville, La Sale,
Sandwich, Ojibway and Riverside and
have a combined population of 1885,
600 persons. A great part of these
commute daily to Detroit where they
are employed. A portion of their
salaries are spent there. Now with
the prospect of flood of gold sweep
ing across the river everyone is pre-
pairing to exhibit tle situation.

Hotels to provide for tourists"

Men are working night and day on

soon.
