THE SKI6WAY TOW^.SITE
The sensible thing was done by the
council last night when It recommend
ed Edwin Brown* for appointment is
iowusite trustee. Mr Browne is a re
spected resident of this city, knows
local conditions aud is well fitted for the
performance of the duties necessary to
straighten out the tuogleJ affairs of the
city townsite. Thit the matter will
be brought to a |>oin j where something
can be promptly done towarus gett.ng
title to the lands of the city on side of
the Moore townsite is certain. In a re
ceut leitrr which The Alaskan received
from Surveyor-General Distio be says:
"Kor your information f will say thai
the returns of said survey were last re
ceived from Mr. Ruud on Deceuib.rti,
lyOti. The returns were apparently in
au acceptao'.e condition, but on exam
ination of the work in the field by the
examiner of surveys a number of er
rors were revealed, some of them being
of such a character and magnitude as
to require correction in the field.
"L'nder date of February II, 1907,
Mr. Ruud was directed to return to the
field at the earliest practicable moment
and make the corrections, and submit
the returns of the corrected survey, or
supplemental notes, with the least pos
slble delay. As soon as they are re
ceived they will tnve the prompt atten
tion of this ottce.
" ^hen the survey is approved and
accepted the matter of appointment of
a trustee ?ill be acted upon by the de
parimenL"
vVhat the council should do, in addi
tion to what it has alreadv donj, is to
gel into communication with Mr. Ruud
and endeavor to have him straighten
out his survey and close thi- ma'ter up
at once so that the tru.t e can lie ap.
pointed.
The Alaskau ha- been try in? for some
time to tret the townsite matter closed
up, and it looks now as if ito efforts
to this eue would be prolific of
speed} and satisfactory re?uln.

FIRE PROTECTION NEEDED
The action of Alderman McLean in
having the fire limits extended so as to
include Thirteenth -.treet must eerta'.u
ly meet with the approval of a:l proj>
erty owners. The winter coming on
makes the danger of fire greater than
at other times of the year. This taking
into consideration the tire traps which
are allowed lo remain standijg, cails
for every precaution lint can possibly
be thrown around the homes of the
res'dentu of the city. Not only should
the ordinance be pussetl promptly ? so
as to give thost people who will have
to change their present stove pipe
chimneys into brict f: ues, time
to do so. but a severe penalty
should be attached to the ordi
nance for a failure to meet with its re
qulrement at once. The city should at
the same time see that the owners of
unoccupied buildings are compelled to
board up the openings caused by the
removal of windows and doors in them.
These old shacks, filled with paper and
combustible materials may be lighted
by a dying spark my moment and cause
the destruction of the business portion
of tbe city.
