John E Ballaine who came with
in four votes of receiving the noml-|
n:\tion on the Progressive ticket for|
congressman at large Tot the state
of Washington, is In Juneau. Mr
Ballaine is the owner of the Seward
tow mite and builder of the railroad
at that city. In speaking of rail
roads in Alaska he says
"We are counting with certainty
on getting a bill through congress
next winter for the building of a
government railroad from the coast
to Fairbanks. The session of con
gress just adjourned created an Al
askan railroad commission to look
over route and submit to congress
in !>ecember an estimate of the cost.
The commissioners are now at Sew
ard The government's proposal Is
to take over the Alaska Northern
from Seward and extend It through
the Matanuska coal fields and on to
the Tanana river. The length of)
such a trunk line would be about
4 SO miles It would open the cream
of Alaska from an agricultural and
mineral standpoint.
"The government has already es
tablished its naval base and coaling
station on Resurrection Bay, a mile
south of Seward."

against them and made their Urea1
unbearable by his slave driving meth
ods. Todny he resigned at the re
quest of the employers and the ac

Kanaan City. Sept 23 ? Cardinal
(llbbonn talked some politics In his
:iddress at the Catholic cathedral
yesterday. He Is not a believer In
i the recall of Judges, nor In the re
j rail of any one else who has been
' erted to office of1 prominence and
j trust. While he has not announced
adherence to any political party, the
j i act of his spoken hostility to the
recall movement Indicates that he Is
opposed to the Progressive cause,
and will probably through an Influ
! ?>?ce to the stand pat party repre
? sented by Taft.
