O'CONNOR Latest Novelties in Tobacco Jars and Pipe Racks at Burford's What is Doing for and By Alaskans at Washington (Continued from Page 1.) chored here where he has a soft suap as an attache of the United States Senate. But he still talks Alaska, and the other night at the Nationul Press Club, of which he is a member, he kept the bo>'9 busy guessing as to the truth and veracity of some of the marvelous tales he told of the early days in the Klondike and Nome. National Committeeman Z. R Che ney, of Juneau, who was operated on for appendicitis at Baltimore a few days ago is progressing fiuely, toward recovery and is due here on Sunday. He will probably leave for home as soon as he is able to travel with safe ty and comfort. Mrs. Cheney is with him. C. F. Cheek, of Juneau, arrived here a few days ago from his former home in Missouri.. Yesterday he and Robert W. Jennings had lunch with Speaker Champ Clark and discussed | with him Alaska affairs, in which the I Speaker evinced much interest. Mr. I Cheek will leave tonight for the west, j enroute to Juneau. Judge J. if. Winn is in the city from I Philadelphia and New York, where j he has been engaged in professional j business. He will return to Phlladel-i . phia in a day or two, and expects to I start for home within a week or ten ' days. L. P. Shackleford was here on Mon day and Tuesday. He returned on Tuesday afternoon to New York. With B. L. Thane, of the Alaska-Gastineau Mining Co.. he put through a deal by which the latter company has acquired the Nowell Mining properties at Ber ner's Bay. and it is stated that ex tensive development will be undertak en at once. Mr. Thane is now in Salt Lake City. T. P. McDonald, who in 1907 began the development of a coal mine on Bering lake, in the Katalla district, has been here since last December on business pertaining to his claims. He is accompanied by Mrs. McDon ald. Mr. McDonald has had several interviews with Secretary of the In terior l.ane but the Interior Depart j ment has not yet announced its pol icy with regard to the Alaska coal lands and their development and no i one here seems able to hazard even a guess as to what that policy will be. It is believed, however, that it will be liberal. Major John E. Baiiaine, of Seward. Charles G. Heifner, of Seattle, Falcon Joslin and others have completed the first draft of a bill for tl\e building of railroads in Alaska, by the govern ment. This bill, it is understood, will be introduced in Congress by Senator Chamberlain, of Oregon. It is based generally upon the report of the Al aska Railroad Commission, but the final selection of the railroad routes is to be left with the President. Colonel "Dick" Ryan, of Controller Bay came over from New York yes terday. He is the promoter of a rail road from Controller bay to the Ber ing coal fields, and is opposed to the government ownership and operation of railroads in Alaska or elsewhere, and will work against the proposi tion. Delegate James Wickersham returned from Juneau the other day greatly pleased with his visit. He speaks in the highest terms of the personnel of Al aska's first legislature and predicts that the legislators will establish fine records for themselves. Judge Wick ersham frankly states that the mem bers of Alaska's legislature will com pare favorably with Congress itself. Nearly all the Alaskans now in Wash ington forgather from time to time in the Delegate's office, where they are always assured a cordial wel come. Captain Conrad Seini, a former well known Alaskan, is in this city from New York. Capt. Seim is among the candidates for governor of Alaska He has recently written an interesting brochure on the "Introduction of Do mestic Reindeer into Canada.' at the request of Premier Borden. The arti cle discusses the success that has been achieved by our government in the raising of reindeer in Alaska. There promises to be a lively fight in Congress over the new tariff meas ure, and lobbyists are now flocking here by the hundreds, it is claimed. Free sugar, free wool and some other schedules are likely to cause much discussion. W. H. Whittlesey, of Seward, is in Washington from Chicago, where he was a witness in the Alaska coal cases While here Mr. Whittlesey received a telegram conveying the news of the death of his wife in an automobile accident, in Seattle. Judge Finnegan, U. S. Commissioner at Seward, is al so here, but will leave for home early next week. Casey Moran, well known all over Alaska and the Klondike, Is on the staff of the Washington Post, and he can always be found around the lead ing hotels boosting Alaska and con demning the government for its neg lect of the territory. Casey has a plan up his sleeve for providing publicity of Alaska and its resources which he has laid before Secretary Lane. John H. Bullock, tried and con convicted in Tacoma last winter on a t charge of complicity in defrauding the , government in the sale of coal to Al aska army posts, is here. His case is. being reviewed by the Department of Justice and he is confident that he will be exonerated. It. I). Glddlngs, of the Alaska Road J Commission, is taking in the sights of Washington. Tills is his first visit ( East, and his comparisons are greatly in favor of the "great and boundless ' West." Mrs. H. E. Shields, formerly of Nome, but now living at Richmond, j Va., came up this week to visit Major and Mrs. Strong at the Raleigh Ho tel. , John T. Riordan, a candidate for an Alaska U. S. marshalship, has been here for some weeks. Mr. Riordan now lives at Nome, but formerly re sided in the Third Judicial Division. Eugene Ailes, formerly a Nome banker, is now connected with a Washington banking firm. W. H. Dobbs, an Alaskan pioneer in the moving picture business was in town the other day from New York, where he is exhibiting Alaska pic tures. Donald A. McKenzle, who is Inter ested in Alaska coal lands is busy ev ery day trying to help untangle that burning question. WILSON AND WHAT HE MEANS TO ALASKA President Wilson is a man of sterl ing qualities. He enters upon his du ties with lofty ideals, and strength of character sufficient to brush aside the obstacles which made President Taft's trail look like the markings on a weather chart at the end of a capric-1 ions season. President Wilson has asked for the support of a united people, regardless I of political faith, and we believe he has it. In fact, it is doubtful if any previous President in recent times could boast of a stronger support at the commencement of his administra tion. It is the kind of support that spells success, and if President Wil son fails in the accomplishment of those things which he has set about to do, it will not be because the peo ple were not with him. Bnt he will not fail. He is not the kind of a man to fail, and we venture the prediction that he will be regarded as a greater man at the end of his administration than he now is. Of what significance President Wil son's presence In the White House is to Alaska, is a matter yet to be de decided. We know that Alaska will bo permitted to develop under Demo cratic rule, but what reforms will be, we will probably not know until Pres ident Wilson presents "his views to Congress. In the meantime, there is consolation In the thought that we will be treated fairly at all events, and we believe that once the administration has decided to act, no moss will be allowed to gather on the plans and specifications. Altogether, it is a bright outlook for the country at large, and for Alaska in particular, and the signs indicate that the wheels of reform will begir turning ere many days have passed. ?Fairbanks Times. ONLY COMPETENT MEN FOR FAIRBANKS OFFICE Insofar as concerns the appoint ment of Democrats to the places which will become vacant in this di vision, we have the assurance of lo cal party leaders that no candidates will be endorsed who do not possess all of the qualifications necessary to the successful and satisfactory admin istration of the offices they seek. That is a good starter, and if the ter ritorial committeemen will stick cloBe ly together to such a policy, the pub lic will be well served during the Democratic administration, and the party will be strengthened materially. ?Fairbanks Times. THE CITY OF SEATTLE BRINGS MORE PEOPLE The City of Seattle arrived at the Island about five o'clock yesterday ev ening and came over to Juneau during the night. She had the following pass engers for Juneau: Matt Brown, Sam Uholf, Roy A. Vine, J. H. Shelly, Robt. Hernich, A. Milanovich, Paul Jensen, Ole A. Nil son. Arl Webber. Henry A. Nelson, L. C.

Buell, Armour & Co's repre sentative in this part of Alaska, left for Lynn Canal points on the City of Seattle today. He will return on the Jefferson. COL. W. P. RICHARDSON BOOSTS ADMINISTRATION "It is my opinion that more atten tion will be given to the development 3f Alaska by the new administration than ever before," said Col. W. P. itichardson, who has charge of the construction of government roads in Alaska, when seen at the Seattle ho tel this morning. Col. Richardson is returning to the North, from Washington, I) C\, where he spent the winter. He bases his ' opinion on what he lias heard from the White House and the general . feeling in Washington. ! "Of the special Alaska appropria- ; tion of $155,000, about $100,000 will ' probably be used in the construction ! of roads from Valdez to Fairbanks," j said Col. Richardson this morning. . "The other $55,000 of the appropria- ? tion of congress will probably be used . in the construction of a protecting ] dike at Valdez against the glacial ; floods. In the past years the citi- ? zens of Valdez have worked to pro tect themselves against the great floods which come down on that city in the summer time from the big , glacier. Notwithstanding their efforts however, large areas of property have been destroyed each year, and the government now has taken the pro tection of the Alaska city in its own hands." Col. Richardson is planning to re main in the city for three or four days in order to settle minor business matters, after which he intends to re turn to Alaska.?Seattle Times. Mrs. Winn Gets New Goods.
