Claimed That Alaskan Cable
Is Worthless
The rather startling story comes
from Seattle that the Alaskan cab!? is
worthless and will have to be replaced '
before there can be any assurance of
permanence in the service given this
district by the signal corps.
The Seattle Times, of recent date,
gives the matter a front page story the
gist of which is contained in the fol
lowing paragraph:
"That the section of the Alaskan 1
cable stretching between Seattle and 1
Sitka is comparatively worthless, and 1
that within a short time this entire '
cable will have to be discarded and re- '
placed by a new wire at a cost to the '
government of more than $500,000, Is
the opinion of those who are in closest '
touch with such matters."

SELL TWO
Canadian Pacific Disposes of
Daunbe and Amur
The Canadian Pacific Railway Com-!
pany has sold tbe Danube und it is
rumored that the Amur has also been
disposed of. The Dunube was sold to
t,he British Columbia Salvage Company
to be used as a wrecker. It 's said the |
Amur has been sold to the Canadian |
jovernment to be used as a survey ship. )
The Dominion government has given
i bonus of $10,000 a year for the main
tenance of a wrecker on the Pacific
Coast. The British Columbia Salvage
Company was organized to earn this
bonus and such other fees as it could
make. The corapaTy paid $."W,003 for
the Danube and will transform her into
a wrecking ship.
The Danube is one of the oldest sea j
going steamships on the Pacific coast.
She carried the first returning cargo that
sver passed through the Suez canal. |
She was a regular liner on the Alaskan '
run for several years.
The sale of ihe Amur as a coast sur- '
vey ship has not been confirmed but it
is said to be true.
TIME JO AC!
Jnnean Should Awaken
From Apathy
(Juneau Record-Miner ) .
Nearly all cf the important towns 1
and cities of Ala>ka, with theexcep-|
tion o( Juneau, have already elected j
their delegates to the Alaska couven- j
tion which convenes at Seattle 011 the
15th of November, but up to the present
time there saems that the citizens of
this community inve so little interest
in the matter that no one will letd in
the matter of calling a convention for
the selection of delegates.
If Juneau aspires in fact and reality j
to become the capital of Alaska, and to '
exert some influence in securing need
ed legislation at future sessions of con
gress, it Is high lime that her citizens
awoke from their, seerui.ig apathy and
took an active part in Alaskan atTairs.
Juneau cannot afford to be without
duly accredited delegates at the con
venvention.
