at an indoor meeting in q packed
hall with over 200 present where q

Hold Banned Meeting.
PROVIDENCE, r. T., Dec. 49,
Workers of Providence gathered In
large numbers Saturday In front of
the city hall to welcome the National
Hunger Marchers Of Column One
when they came into Providence to
stop over night on their way back
to Boston. This meeting was held
and was successful although THE po-
lice department had announced
through the newspapers that no more
meetings called by thte Unemployed
Council or the Communist Party
would be allowed in Providence.
After the crowd at city hall cheered
the speeches Of Column One, Cap
tain Biedenkapp and the reports of
the Providence delegates on the
March, the Marchers were taken to
supper and to a meeting on Federal
Hill at the headquarters of the I'm
employed Council. The place was
crowded to the doors. Cops, dicks,
and federal immigration authorities
were out In force, but did not dare
to do anything.
Another big crowd OF workers we're
up early Sunday morning to see the
Mafchers of toward Boston.

Father Hubbard

The other day Father Barnard H. Hubbard, a Jesuit geology teacher at Santa Clara Univers- ity, California, was in Washing ton conferring with the Govern ment officials regarding his next expedition to Alaska, to which section he has already made three trips. The Priest and three companions will travel by dog team several thousand miles over the Yukon trail, making visits to twelve Jesuit missions along the way. Their destina- ton will be Mount Aniakchas and the Alaska Peninsula vol cano to compile a record of vol canic action and formation.
 Pay of District Attorneys
 About year ago the Depart ment of Justice wrote letters to the various District Attorneys U. s. Marshals, Clerks of the Court, etc, in Alaska, that glad dened their hearts with the in formation that effective July 3 1880, their salaries would be ad- vanced $20O. They received the advance and properly expended it, but were startled a couple ol

 i hension, as indicated in his ora tion that Captain Cresap was re- sponsible for the outrages, but the murders so angered Cresap that he threatened Greenhouse For years afterward, however the name of Cresap was anathe- ma in Indian homes and moth CTS used to quiet their babies by saying Cresap would get them if they didn't stay quiet.
 | Lord Dunmore, governor of the Virginia Colony, was loyal to the mother country. He heard re- ports of confederation of the Indian tribes in Ohio, Virginia land Pennsylvania, headed by iCornstalk, an aggressive Shaw Free chieftan, organized for the 1 purpose of driving out the white settlers. Dunmore determined to make war on them.
 Dunmore's chief lieutenant was Andrew Lewis and each leading an army, started west uyar1 Tn October. Lewis refuS- cd to obey an order of Dunmore 10 jCin him north of the Ono ]! River. for he was on the trail of i Cornstalk and his bend and wanted battle. He met up With the Indian warriors at Point Pleasant, Virginia or what was then Virginia It has been pre- cariously described by historians as the bloodiest, fercest and im- rortant battle in the annals of Indian warfare and the whites won. It kept the Indians from aiding the British for at least two years,
 Even after the battle, Lewis refused to join Dunmore'S troops and the governor further invaded Ohio in his effort to ob- tain a treaty of peace with the Indians. Dunmore sent General John Gibson, who was reputed to be friend of Logan and father of his sisters child, to Logan who consented to talk. He refused to attend the council but made his simple address which promises to carry through all the future. After the address was given, Gibson wrote it down. Some historians say Logan spoke excellent English; others that the speech ha dto be translated. Gibson said he spoke in English and that he put his exact lan- guage on paper.
 Logan later drank heavily and became a wanderer. He abused his wife, and his nephew, in a fit of anger, killed him near De- troit in 1780.
 For century and more the tree under which Logan spoke remained without special im- portance in the life of the sur rounding country.
 With the organization of the state archaeological society, how ever, steps were taken to pre- seve the plot and the tree, and it was obtained by gift in 1911. Monuments surround it and these commemorate the inn mortal address of the untutOred savage and the treaty of peace with the Indians. The speech itself is carved in stone. There also is a monument for Colonel Cresap, accused wrongly by Lo- gan, and later to become trust cd lieutenant of Washington and to rest forever in Trinity Churchyard of New York, where lie so many of the patriots of 1776.

months ago to receive a con-
 munication from the Comptrol- Ter General McCarl stating that this advance had been been
 made under the "Brookhart'' Act, which was not applicable in this instance, and intimating that they would have to blow
 back the advance. The Officials l at Fairbanks referred the mat ter to Delegate Wickersham. who took it up with the Comp troller General and the Attorney General. AS a result the latter has issued an order making an Administrative Increase" which will be respected by the Comp troller General, and the Alaska officials will not be expected to
 return the past years advance.
 Absentee Voting in Alaska NC For eleven years Albert J
 zyvolski worked on the Alaska
 Railroad and the Copper River and Northwestern Railway, but recently came outside and took
 civil service examination in
 Seattle. He successfully passed and was assigned to the Navy Department at Washington, where he has been workin for three months. He was in to see the Delegate the other day to say that he intended to re- turn to Alaska and wishes to re- tain his legal residence in Chiti- and wanted to know whether the Act that was passed at the last session of the Territorial Legis- lature providing for absentee oting would permit him to cast ballot in Alaska at the next election. Unless Congress ap- proves this Act or something similar there can be no absentee 7oting in the Territory.
 Leasing of Matanuska No. 2
 For some weeks past the Gen eral Land Office has been wrest- ling with a proposition as to whether or not to lease Unit No. 2 in the Matanuska coal field, and to give an exploration per- init for Unit No. 3. A lease had been given several years ago, but it was cancelled. Now the ap- plicants are Jesse Lander, Hen ry Baxter, Bartley Howard, E. H. Rasmussen and Frank Colobuf- falo. The Land Office officials have been surveying all the facts that surround the matter, in the effort to know just what to re- commend to the Secretary of the Interior. It may be that some of the applicants have a prior claim for lease and then again it may be decided to advertise for bids, with certain stipula- tions, and let the highest and best bidder take the permits. It is expected that coal from No. 2 Unit, with greater depth, will show a higher value than here tofore.
 Seward Wants Closed Streams The Common Council of Seward has memorialized the Bureau Of Fisheries here to. prohibit the taking of salmon from any stream emptying into Resurrec- tion Bay, so as to insure the es- exponent of salmon to their spawning grounds, and thus aid what is becoming an important industry to Seward.

Last week he had his name filed with the Civil Service Commission in Washington, to take the exam ination for the position of As sistant Inspector, Radio Enforce ment.

 1 Political Appointments ', At the Department of Justice it is stated that a successor has Irot yet been named to succeed Julius H. Hart, a District Attor.- ney at Nome, who retires on July 31. Charles P. Sisson, Assistant Attorney General, (Administra- tive), has been in Alaska look ing over the situation and an ap- pointment will be announced shortly after his return in Au- gust. He will be somewhat de layed by going to San Diego. California, where his brother and young son were accidentlv drowned while they were out fishing in a small boat on the i Pacific.
 Nushagak Fish District Fails The Nushagak area was clos ed to salmon fishinng on July IS, for the reason given by the Bureau of Fisheries that the run of Red Salmon was so poor, and there has been no improve ment since. which was predic- | tion made lone before the sea- son opened. The area will be opened August 3 for silver salm- !! on fishing.

It is expected to secure the necessary permit for construction from the Bu- reau of Forestry and the Bu 'eal of Public Lands.
