Army Telegraph Lines Play
Major Role in Development
in Mining Camps of Alaska

The shrinage of the military
telegraph system of communica-
lions in Alaska was emphatically
emphasized in an official circular
just issued by Commissioner G. G..
Moore, Commissioner of the Cen
eral Land Office, Department Of
the Interior, which restores to en-
try under the public land laws ap-
proximately 1000 miles of right Of
way formerly used by land tele-
graph lines and the ground at one
time used by % telegraph sta
lions.
The Army's far flung system OF
telegraph lines, coupled with the
cable system from Seattle, played
a major role in the history OF the
pioneer mining camps Of the Ter
ritory. Wherever a strike was
made, shortly afterward a shingle
was hung out announcing that the
Army's Signal Corps was prepared
to receive and send messages.
Stations Long Since Closed
All Of the % stations have long
since been closed, the Telegraph
equipment moved to other points or
stored in Army warehouses, and
the hundreds of miles of galvan-
lied iron wire that kept the

frontier mining settlements In
touch with the outside world per-
mitted to rust away
The Army's communication sys-
tenn in the Territory blossomed
forth in the early days of the
present century. The first land
telegraph line of any consequence
headed north from Valdez toward
the Klondike diggings. 1t crossed
the summit north of Valdez and
stretched from Gulkana, on Rich
ardson Highway, then undreamed
of. to Fort Egbert on the upper
Yukon. 1t was known as the
Ketchumstock line. The distance

AMERICA EYES
STORM SIGNALS
IN FAR FIELDS
Beset with Domestic Prob
lens, Country Has to
Watch Alien Struggles

WASHINGTON, D. c., Dec. 49,
Beset with its own troubles is
not enough for the United States
which is now watching trouble sig
nails from three continents.
Nor is this casual watchfulness
of ordinary times. Unceasing vigil
ance is demanded from the Ameri-
can Government as it struggles at
home with such problems as tax
revision and business reconstruc-
ton.
Europe's economic ills are almost
as live an issue as any domestic
problem. Almost hourly there are
new developments in the European
situation which have to be taken
into account by this country.
Then the Sino-Japanese troubles
are far from being composed, and
Americas interest in them is, after
all, more than academic. In them.
it is recognized there is a source
of more than embarrassment for
the United States, which necessi-
tates continuous and close contact
with Americas representatives in
that field
In South America is another is
sue that the United States cannot
evade. The Bolivian-Paraguayan
dispute over the Chaco district
in central South America has po-
tentialities for trouble.
Thus the American Government
has to watch Europe, Manchuria
and South America, looking after
its interests in all affected ma
tons. But Washington is hopeful
that the questions involved in each
sector will yield to the patient and
conciliatory attitude which this
country has adopted in each in
stance.
Officials of the Government, how
ever, refused to comment on any
of the problems involved. But they
gave out an impression of full
confidence as they keep in touch
with developments.

CRICSBY WOULD
WIPE OUT RULE
OF BUREAUCRACY
If Elected Delegate I'll
Wipe Out Alaska Bureau
cracy, He Declares

IF I am elected Delegate from
Alaska I shall inaugurate a cam
paign to end bureaucratic govern
ment in Alaska" declared George
B. Grigsby, whose candidacy for
the Democratic nomination for
that office was published early
this week in The Empire.
II am convinced" he declared,
that the Democratic party, which
has proved to be Alaska's best
friend, will be victorious in the
elections next year, and Alaska's
delegate will have an opportunity
to render unsurpassed service to
the Territory" he said.
Competition Augurs Well
"It is conceded" Mr.. Grigsby
said, "that James Wickersham will
be the Republican Candidate for
Delegate to Congress next fall.
1t is for the Democrats to decide
at the primary election who is the
logical candidate to oppose him. 1t
augurs well for Democratic sue
cess that there is competition for
that honor. There should be a
large Democratic vote in the prim-
aries.
IT feel as do many Of my friends,
that I am the logical candidate.
I was beaten by Wickersham in
the last election by only 296 votes,
after a very short campaign. !
carried my home town Of Ketchi-
kan by 387 votes, the first Divi-
sion by 1876 votes, and ran an
average of 200 votes ahead of the
legislative ticket, and also ran
ahead of the Territorial ticket.
There will be no doubt Of my cleo
ton next fall If I am nominated in
the primary, and I believe, as do
the friends who are supporting me,
that my official and political rec
ord entities me to the nomination.

less it showed to have been actual
physical violence on her part to-
