MINER GOES INTO CASSIAR
AFTER 40 YEARS ABSENCE

George H. Nee arrived on the
Princess Norah Sunday from Prince
Rupert on his second prospecting
trip to the Cassiar.
Mr.. Nee came to Loring in 1889
to build a wharf for the Gluten
Packing Company of San Francisco
The following year he came to
Wrangell and prospected in this
district for three years and then
vent into the Cassiar where he
prospected the Hilbert, Mechanics,
and Lizard sections for several
years.
During the gold excitement of
1898 he went into Dawson and
then to the new fields at Nome Re-
turning to Dawson he mined ia
that section until 1912 when he
left the North and went to Prince
Rupert to live.
Now at the age of 20 he is back
to look over some ground he re-
members from 40 years ago. He
says he knows more about mining
now than he did at that time and
believes that he failed to recog-
nize something good.

Mantle, L. M Churchill and George

SCHOOL TERM
SHORTENED TO
NINE MONTHS

The school budget presented at
the regular meeting of the coun-
ell last week came in for lengthy
discussion at a special meeting last
night following the recommends
tion made by Councilman Bidwell.
for the finance committee of the
Council that the salary of the sup
erintendent of school be cut TO
$4,000, that of the coach to $1,000,
the janitor TO $1,000. and the clerk
of the school BOARD from $240 per
year to S120. fixing the school
year at nine months and excluding
extra holidays Mr. Bidwell listed
proper holidays as Christmas and
New Years and the usual Christ
mas vacation.
Nine Months Term
Inasmuch as certain holidays are
fixed by law and the board had
already decided upon nine months
year in making the budget, the
spring vacation to be eliminated.
the question centered upon sala
ries Mrs NJ. o. Johnson, school
clerk. who was present stated that
Legislators returning from Juneau
during the week objected to a sal
airy cut for Wrangell. teachers sal
aries here being the lowest in the
Territory, and quoted from letters
and reports of the Territorial Com
missioner of Education.
Because of the big cut to the
school budget last year, including
ten per eent to teachers, and the
necessity of having to reduce the
budget by about four and one-half
per cent this year in accordance
with the cut in Territorial appro-
priations. the school board, how
ever. found it impossible to reduce
the maintenance cost sufficiently
without cutting salaries. While
this reduction was accomplished
by making the school year shorter,
all salaries will sustain a cut year
ly to the faculty members of from
$50 to 1925, or about five per cent.
Would Save Town $3.50
The saving of $1,000 on the
budget. suggested by Mr.. Bidwell
would have entailed cuts on items
in addition to salary cuts, and the
entire reduction would have saved
1e town $3.50 as follows: On su-
superintendent salary, $3.50 for
the year: on the salary for the
coach who teaches social sciences,
also. $3.50: school clerks salary
which is $50 per month. $50 for
the year, and ianitor's pay. s75
for the year. and miscellaneous
items, $40 The loss to the individ-
uals affected by the suggested cut
would have been exactly three
times the amount stated. all of
which is paid by the Territory.
Councilman Bidwelrs motion to
adopt his recommendations was
Sc onded by Mr.. Anderson and re-
ceiyed a negative vote from the
other members of council The sal
airy question being still uppermost
in the minds of some of the men,
bers, the council was spiritedly re-
minded by Mrs Johnson that that
body could not fix school salaries
and that the only question they
could settle was the budget as
whole

WANTS "BABY
BOND SYSTEM
STARTED HERE
MIAMI CITIZEN WELL KNOWN
IN KEY WEST SUBMITS PRO-
POSITION TO NTY
JUDGE HUGH QUINN

Inauguration of a "baby bond
system for the financing of Key
West and repelling the depression
has been submitted to Judge Hugh
Gum by citizen of Miami who is
well known in Key West.
Correspondence relative to the
matter has been carried on for
some time but no publicity has
been given it because Judge Gum
says that he is not at all gullible
and wanted to get a better idea
of the plan than was at first out
lined.
The judge says he does not look
with favor on every hair Drained
scheme or proposition offered as
most of them are plans of promo
tiers whose sole object is selfish
ness with little or no regard for
others. In other words an ex-
parte transaction.
However, the judge, after read
ing a number of articles recently
appearing in The Citizen telling oi
the success of like systems Of ex-
change in other cities, Is Of the
opinion that the promoter should
be invited to Key West to confer
with county and city officials,
merchants and the public in gen.
lerai, clearly outlining bis plans and
explaining the proposition in every
detail.
The promoter OF the idea. in his
letters, assures the judge that the
entire costs Of organizing the coma
pany, getting out the bonds. eou-
pons and redemption certificates
will be borne by the Business
Builders" the organization The
writer represents.

of the United States navy
battle force to it's credit.
The annual winter problem of
the navy this year is one in which
the scouting force must attempt
to gain a foothold somewhere along
the American west shore while the
battle force attempts to hold it
off.
Like An Athletic Contest
The scouting force is on its way
from Hawaii and the battle" will
take place sometime between Feb
ruary 6 and February IL. Follow
ing, there will be concentration
of the fleet in the San Pedro-San

The maneuvers are planned
somewhat in the manner of an ath-
letic contest with a goal set but
the manner in which it is to be at
tanned is just as much a secret
as the manner in which a football
team is to score it's touchdowns.
The purpose of the problem is to
test the entire force of the navy
under surprise conditions such as
they would meet in war.
No shots will be fired but the
most intricate gun-play possible
with modern equipment will be
used from anti-aircraft to gunnery
from the turrets of huge warships.
Men will work with clock-like pre-
cision, handling and placing shells
and powder just as though they

]. GALSWORTHY,
DRAMATIST And
NOVELIST, DIES
FAMOUS WRITER AND NOBEL
PRIZE WINNER SUFFERED
ILLNESS DEVELOPED FROM
SEVERE COLD
tBy Associated Press,

LONDON, Jan. 31.-John Gals.
worthy, British novelist and
dramatist. and 1882 Nobel prize
winner, died today. He was IS.
The famous writer was suffer
ing from anemia and was IN a
grave condition for the past week.
His illness developed from q
severe cold contracted last month,
Known as the fictional chron-
icler of England's upper class,
John Galsworthy spent most of his
life critically examining the con-
ventions of British landed aristo-
cracy.
Educated at Harrow and Ok
ford fer the bar, he was admitted
to practice at the age of %. After
brief period he deserted that
profession and employed his legal
training as an aid in making a
searching analysis of the social
circles in which he moved.
Galsworthy travelled extensively
after he decided upon a literary
career. He learned to write, ac-
cording to his own confession, by
unlearning everything else.
Education serves rather to
choke than to encourage the
powers of imagination and
creativeness," he once said, Il
did not begin to write novels un-
til | had forgotten all | had
learned at school and college. Fine
scholars are rarely imaginative
writers of any force"
In 1898 Galsworthy made a
voyage to the South Seas on the
sailing vessel "Torrens," of which
the late Joseph Conrad was first
officer. Their conversation turn
ed to literature and led to Con-
rad showing his manuscript of
"Almayer's Folly" This i'm
mediately met with the approval
of Galsworthy, who encouraged
Conrad to continue his writing. In
later years the two worked to-
gether in London.
Galsworthy published his first
novel, "Jocelyn," in 1898 under
the pSeudonym of John Sinjohn.
This was followed two years later
by "The Villa Rubein," colume
of stories. He did not attract
general attention. however, until
1904, when THE Island Pharisees''
appeared. This was the first of
a series of novels that dealt al.
most entirely with problems of
the social world.
Others included "The Man OF
Property" 1905; tThe Country
House." 1907, and THE Free.
