ERRONEOUS STATEMENTS
 CREDITED ID SAWYER

For the purpose of correcting a false statement enormously e. credited to E. w. Sawyer, Staunch Alaska worker, Department of the Interior, Washington, D. C., The Gateway is informed that MT. Sawyer's alleged support of the proposed combination of the Nome and Fairbanks judicial districts, is entirely wrong It is known that in several instances MT. Sawyer has gone on record taking no side in the issue.
 Since MT. Sawyer has held his present position he has at all times had the best interest of the people of Alaska at heart and would at no time pit oen section against anoth- CT.
 His thought on the proposed consolidation of the Second and Fourth judicial divisions, is that it might be we'll for such action be guided by the Territorial Legisla- ture or the All-Alaska Chamber of Commerce.

MISS MAUD MAY
 |s ALASKA BOOSTER

If all Alaska tourists would inn bibe the infectious enthusiasm which radiates from Miss Maud May, a resident of Fremont, Neb- raska, but for seven years an an nual visitor to Seward and other places in the Territory, there would be a great increase in visitors to the Northland.
 Miss May has traveled extensive ly over the United States, Cuba and Central America, and when she pays tribute to Seward that she likes it the best of all places, it is appreciated because it emanates from discerning and discrimi- mating traveller She says she pre- fers Seward to any place in Alas ka.

Where once a commodiouS cabin stood, there is now nothing but fire -blackened debris, the result of fire Wednesday night which des- troyed the home of Jules Krem- per, at Mile 312.
 All of MT. Kremper's personal be- longingS were lost in the blaze, and including some currency which is said to have been burned with his his winters supply of grub.
 The fire had gotten away to a good start before it was discovered and before fire-fighters could get on the scene. The cabin was a total loss.

The baseball game scheduled for last evening between the USLHS Cedar and Seward had to be called off because of lost balls and dark ness. The game was declared a tie.

VETERAN RETIRES

A. M. Welles, well known in this
city as publisher of the Herald for
a number of years prior to Aug. 1,
1913, has announced his permanent
retirement from newspaper work.
After leaving this city Mr.. Welles
purchased the Worthington Globe
which he successfully published I'M
til couple of years ago when he
disposed of the property. Since dis
posing of the Globe Mr.. Welles has
lived in Minneapolis, but has been
a regular weekly contributor to
the Fairmont Sentinel. He will
spend the summer at the Knights
of Pythias home near Monticello.
He says he will devote the summer
loafing and fishing, which probably
means that he will pay his many
friends in this city visit before the
summer is over. He will be well
coined.

The boys conduct was worthy Of
special mention, every boy conduct
ed himself as a perfect gentleman
every minute of the time-it was
hardly necessary to speak to them
at all. They came in for special
mention from the bus driver who
though they were very fine bunch
of boys. The day was ideal for the
trip and the event will go down in
the minds of every scout as the
High Spot in the best scouting
year Troop rs has ever had. The
boys feel well repaid for the extra
efforts they have been to during
the contest.
The most amusing incident of
the "trip will probably cause the
boys 10 use a new expression "use
less sugar" A sign in the cafe
where they ate that night tickled
them immensely. The sign read:
use less sugar and stir like hell
we don't mind the noise"
There were 33 different ways to
get points in this Roundup Contest,
designed to test each individual
Scout, each Patrol, the Troop as a
whole, the Scoutmaster, and the
Troop Committee. While some
Scouts efforts resulted in more
points for the troop as a whole,
nevertheless the record Of the points
each individual scout obtained is
interesting, and approximately
shows which ones are entitled to
the greatest individual credit. Some
of those having the smaller number
of points are -"tenderfoots" and
their showing is therefore that
much more creditable. The list fol.

Mr.. Brown was introduced. He
made a simple, forceful statement,
declining to discuss Gov. Olson and
his program, because, he said, he
was not yet the nominee OF his
party. His statements are clear

Secretary Haislett, just before the
close of the session made a plea
for the Republicans to organize to
the last precinct. He said money
would be needed to carry on the
campaign honestly. The funds
would have to come from the indi-
yiduals in small donations as there
was no organization with a barrel
back of Mr.. Browns campaign; that
Mr.. Brown would not countenance

township officials and farmers have
organized to aid the state in exter-
mination work, and all that is need
ed is the poison mash to be spread
on fields.
1.-THE formula used" Mr.. Ruggles
said, sis 100 pounds of bran, five
pounds of arsenic, two gallons of
molasses and two gallons Of water.
The mixture is spread thinly over
the infested area"
Mr.. Ruggles said that at the rate
of 10 pounds to the acre, the cost
would be about 20 cents an acre.
He added that it might be cheaper
to buy ready mixed poison mash at
$22.50 a ton in Minneapolis. Water
is the only additional ingredient re-
quired for this preparation, he said.
According to the councils plan,
the work of determination will be
carried on first on 100000 acres
where Mr.. Ruggles estimated the
danger to crops is greatest.
The motion to appropriate the
$4,000 was made by Secretary of
State Mike Holm, and unanimously
approxed by the other members of
the council, Governor Olson, State
Auditor Stafford King and State
Treasurer Julius Schmahl, Attorney
General Henry N. Benson, fifth
member of the council, was absent.
While Minnesota was taking this
action to save its farmers crops,
other northwest states also were
confronted with a serious problem,
and were taking steps to combat
the threatened destruction of
crops.
At Fargo, N. D., a special COM
mittee of the Cass county board of
commissioners, the agricultural
committee Of the Fargo chamber of
commerce, and the Cass county tax
PAYERS association met Tuesday to
consider the situation in that re-
gion.
Reports from South Dakota, indi-
Gated the danger there apparently
was less than in other states, but
that some Mellette county farmers
have stopped planting corn be
cause of the increasing number of
insects. According to the reports,
the farmers have decided to plant
later in the hope of getting a feed
crop.
DR.. George C. Decker, assistant
Iowa state entomologist, said that
in western Iowa counties the grass
hoppers were more numerous than
last year. Near Missouri Valley, he
said, sweet clover and alfalfa fields
already were being attacked. Iowa
state officials Tuesday decided to
send the poison mash left over
from last year to the western coun-
s ties as an emergency measure.
Lincoln, Neb.. reported that grass
hoppers have Matched in northern
counties of the state, and that some
alfalfa fields are being damaged

Men Have Narrow

AS the result of a jug of
liquor. According to those on
fishing trip, two unknown men,
thought to be from Minneapo-
lis, nearly lost their lives in
Sank Lake Sunday afternoon
when their boat capsized. But
for the presence of nearby fish,
erman and persons on the
shore who were picnicking a
tragedy would have resulted
The men went out on the lake
and had with them a jug of
liquor According to those on
the shore, one of the men stood
up to take a drink and fell,
backwards, out of the boat into
the lake. His companion at
tempted to come to his rescue
and in leaning over the edge Of
the boat caused it to capsize,
almost in the exact center Of
the lake.
Chris Schultz, of this village,
Ernest Rooster, of Long Prai-
RE township, and Herman VOL
lenberg, of Reynolds otwnship,
were fishing nearby and went
to the rescue Of the unidenti-
fed men. Meanwhile the ac-
cident had been observed by
Mr.. and Mrs. Fred Lewis, Of
this village, and their sons, Ed
din, of Minneapolis, and Carl
Lewis, of Sank Centre
The Lewis brothers put out
in a boat and rowed to the
scene of the accident. Messrs.
Schultz, Wollenberg and Koest-
er succeeded in getting one of
the men into their boat and
stood by until the Lewis Broth
ers effected the rescue Of the
other man. The men were TAX
en- to shore, seemingly little
the worse for their experience,
although had no one been on
the lake at the time both Of
them would undoubtedly have
been drowned.
All the fishing tackle was lost
as well as the jug Of liquor.
Fred Lewis states that one Of
the men seemed more concern
ed about the loss Of the jug
than he did about the loss Of
the fishing tackle and the mar
row escape the men had ex-
perienced. The boad used by
the men was taken to the cities
by a Minneapolis party Sunday

Next Sunday the Grey Eagle
baseball team will come to this,
city to cross bats with the locals
at the Fair Grounds at 2:30. Last
Sunday the local team got off to
bad start, but much can be expect
ed next Sunday. Grey Eagle was
defeated in fast game by Broot-
en- last Sunday. The games in the
league will be Belgrade at Brooten
and Melrose at Regal. West Union

Sank Centres opener in the
Central Minnesota League at Mel
rose proved to be a grand fiasco
Sunday, when the Melrose players
won by the score of 10 to o. Errors
and bonehead lays were the cause
of the lopsided victory. The score
with good baseball should have
been to O.
Butler, first up for Sank Centre,
famed; Benson few out to second
base; Butch Iwinski hit safe, but
was caught trying to pilfer second
base.
Melrose started their fireworks
in the first inning. H. Moening got
a two base hit; Well was out pitch
er to first base on a sacrifice bunt
when he advanced Moening to Sc
cond; B. Moening was safe. on
Olson's error at short; and both
scored on T. Mornings two-bag-
ger; Matchinsky hit safe scoring T..
Moening; A. Moening flew out to
third base and Lemm famed.
During the second inning both
Melrose and Sank Centre went
down without serious threat.
In the third inning, after Hop
kins and Olson were out, Butler
hit safe; went to second on an err
ror on the pitcher; Benson was
walked, but Iwinski went out Sc
cond to first. Sank Centre threat
ened to score again in the sixth
when Butler started the inning
with a hit; Benson flew out to
left field; Iwinski was safe at
first on an error on the pitcher;
Soltau went out bunting on the
third strike; Butler was out first
to second when Lane hit. During
all other innings the locals had no
chance. They were ablt to connect
for only three safe bingles from
Matchinsky. Butler made two Of
these hits while Butch got the other
one.
Melrose scored one run in the
third inning on two hits. Another
run was made in the fourth on
two hits and two costly errors.
Five runs were garnered in the
fifth, three in the sixth, none in
the seventh and six in the eighth.
