If this cannot be done, members of the finance body, said d raise in water rates is due.
 You must either reduce your cx- pcnscs or increase your income" :" said Chairman Edward F. Hall to Chairman James J. Watson of the water commissioners.
 "T tell you, gentlemen said Mir. Hall addressing the meeting, ''Wc are on dangerous ground
 "Ycs, VIC have been for three years" rcioincd Mr. Watson.
 After q brief and rather perfume tory questioning of Superintendent John l.. Doyle of tho welfare de- partmcnt the board took up the Wa ter board budget.
 It was the expectation of Mr Hall 2 few minutes, he confessed after the meeting At 9:30 the water board budget was righ in the air with the expectation that it would require q good deal of time to pull it down to earth again.
 It appeared largely matter Of bookkeeping as some of the finance board seemed to think that q way out could be found by a change ir entering the various items.
 Chairman Hall found that while the expenses of the department fol the ensuing year were likely to be %25S,&a7.25 the income expected wa: only S22&.o52.oS taking the figure: submitted by that board.
 II appeared aS if there were sever. al items that might be charged diff fcrcntly and make a decided chang, in tn" relations of income and cX p"n&cS such as meters, boxes. vaults etc. fire hydrants and cistcrns, gen "ral equipment, general office equip mcnt. general stable equipment, cn Einc"rin- and supcrintondcncc. \ least some members suggested it.

 This plainly nettled Mr. Hall as he remarked laughngly at the close of the meeting:

 Mayor Paoncssa hastcned to de- fcnd Mr. Holden telling of what he had accomplished for the board and the matter was dropped.
 Little was said about any eXpan- sion plans the water board has in view as the meeting was devoted to analyzing the expenses and income,

THOMAS GAFFNEY OPTIMISTIC OVER
 FUTURE, ALASKA
NOTES REVIVAL OF MINING THROUGHOUT INTER-
 IOR DISTRICTS

Thomas Gaffney, democratic
 candidate for Territorial Audit or, arrived in the city yesterday and will remain for a few days prior to departing for the south. MI. Gaffney left Nome July 26 to tour the Territory in the interests of his candidacy and
 travelled by water from Nome to Nenana.
 Speaking generally MT. Gaff- ney said the Territory through which II traveled is fairly pros porous. There is a very noticea-
 ble revival of mining on the Seward peninsula and I believe
 the output will exceed that of previous years.
 Along the Yukon, light fur catch was reported last winter, and considerable indignation
 was expressed by traders and
 trappers over the proposal of a closed mink season on the lower Yukon. Traders and others told me the natives of that re- zion if the order is enforced
 would actually face starvation. IAs an alternative it is suggested than an open season be declar- ed on beaver, which they argued could be done without endan- gring the future supply, ana at sa,,a tin,e gjye the natives

and trapprs an opportunity live
SIGNS OF NEW LIFE

The old placer camps along the Yukon, notably Ruby, is showing signs of new life At Ruby merchants told me there would be more men in the hills this winter than had been for many years.
 There are number of indi- vidual prospectors at different places on the Yukon and it is safe to predict some of them will stir something up-
 "The Hot Springs country on the Panama is another mining section that is coming back strong. Over one hundred men are engaged in mining there-
 Fairbanks and Anchorage N are prosperous. Business in both places is good.
 About the first question ask- ed me by D number of old friends was: What are the Sent ators going to do about the road?' That, naturally, is the absorbing topic not only along the railroad line but the same subject was discussed down the Yukon river towns where I stopped.
 SERVES TERRITORY
 "The Alaska Railroad serves the Territory by train and boat covering very large area, with a potential mineral wealth which no mind can estimate Iy is my belief the Senatorial investiga- a- ton will be productive of much good to Alaska and the people welcome the investigation. It gives all of us an opportunity of presenting Alaska's case di- rectly before Congress- Those men, | am certain, are going to be friends of Alaska, albeit, in the discharge of their dutles- They may make recommends tions, that may not please every- one, but will eventually be for our benefit. One thing noted by myself in Anchorage was then emphatic statement to the peo- pie of Alaska; to assist the railroad by their loyalty and united cooperation a statement that should be borne in the heart of every true AIask -'.l The Railroad is the one agency that will develop Alaska. Let us all be boosters" - Since his arrival in. SeWarc yesterday MT. Gaffney has beer extraordinarily busy meeting hl' host of warm, old friends ant he is happy to be able to spenf few days here with them a' VII as with new friends ana ac quaintances.
