NEW MOVE
Dawson Capitalists to Iuvest
At Conrad City
Companies are l-eing organized at
Dawson for the purpose of developing
and supplying the people of Conrad
City and neighbering localities with
electric lights, telephone systems and
water works. Applications for charters
already have been made.
The people behind the compan'es are
the Palmer brothers, of Dawson, and
associates in the Klondike and at Van
couver. They h ive applied for charters
for three corporations, each of which j
are to have $10,000 capital stock. In
each of the applications Arthur Palmer
and Russell H. Palmer, of Dawson, and
Robert Kelly, of Vancouver, have been
designated at the trustees.
The ;c->mpauies it is proposed to
charter are entitled. "The Conrad City
Electric 3c Power Comany. Limited.''
"The Conrad City Telephone Svndicate.
Limited." and "The Conrad City Water
Supply Company, Limited " All the
applications are for exclusive priveleges
where they do cot conflict with prior
rights. The applicants ask for the
right to do business in Whitehorse and
Carcross as well as Conrad City.
The electric company proposes to de
velop electricity for light heat and
motive power. The telephone company
will install systems of telephones and
telephone lines in Whitehorse, Coorad
City and Carcross and between the
various places, and the water supply
company will furnish water and water
power to the people of the three towns
named.
The Palmer brothers are among the
wealthiest people at Dawson. They
have recently organized a company to
provide water for the Klondike miners.

There has been considerable excite

Messrs. Farrington, O'Hara and Chaus
se. while on a bunting expedition, came
across a ledge which, in the language
of the native, "looked good to them,"
and t hey accordingly brought specimens
to camp. Assays show the rocK to be
very rich in freemilling gold, and as a
result here was quite a stampede wh(fi
the facts leaked out, and now every
man iu camp considers himself a second

about a mile north of the city and close
to the lake. Work is be'ng done on
several other properties and the show

Many Defects in the Nelson
School Law
There are aomt serious defects in the
Nelson law, authorizing the formation
of district schools in unincorporated
Alaskan communities, according to the
opinion of W. A, Kelly, assistant super
intendent of education in Alaska, act
ing under the bureau of education at
the national capital. One of these de
fects is the provision that only five
months of school can be maintained in
one year and that only one teacher can
be employed. Another is a condition
which requires -0 white children to re
side in a proposed disfii't before the
court will authorize the formation of
the district, while in another portion of
the law is the inconsistent provision
that Creoles, or children of Russian and
Indian mixture, when they have sev
ered their tribal relations from the na
tives, shall be provided with schooling
at the white schools.
Referring to the defects, Mr. Kelly
said:
"Under the law, large communities,
such as Sitka, Kodiak, Unalaska,
Haines and other places, where they
have ample funds to maintain a school
for a longer time, only five months'
school are permitted. In some of these
towns they have too many children for
one teacher and ample money with
which to pay two or more, but the
school board is limited to the employ
ment of one teacher.
"The school revenues in the Sitka
district amount to more than $3000 and
we have more children than one teach
er can conveniently care for.
"The inconsistency In the require
ment; that 20 white children must be in
a proposed district before it will be es
tablished and the provision that chil
dren of mixed blood can attend these
district schools has become apparent
out to the Westward where there are
communities quite large enough to
support schools, where there are more
than a sufficient aumber of school chil
dren, but where less than 20 of them
are white.
"Under the law, as it is now, there i*
too much red tape in the manner of se
curing the license monevs whioh are
supposed to go to the schools. While
the Ian* provides that the people are
entitled to all the license fees paid by
those residing in the district, the
money Is forwarded to Washington and
refunded only after much delay."
The schools in incorporated towns
acd school districts, organized under
the Nelson li.w, do not come under the
jurisdiction of Mr. Kelly. They are
direct'y managed by the people
through school boards elected by them.
Gov, Brady is given general supervis
ion over the organized white schools.
Mr. Kelly is concerned with the na
tive schools, which are conducted by
the bureau of education. Sheldon
Jackson is Alaskan superintendent un
der this bureau.
Mr. Kelly has just completed a tour
of inspection of Alaskan schools in his
department. The points he has visited
in Southeastern Alasita include Sha
kan, Howkan and Klawack, where they
have built Indian schools during the
last summer. He also visited Sulzer,
Coppermount and other places. He
will leave on the-Cottage City for Sit
ka, his home.
