John A. Wilson, territorial road
commissioner left today for Solomon.
He is to begin work on a corduroy
road over the Ruby divide in the Casa
de I’aga section. The road will be
constructed with the ties from the
abandoned railroad, the lies being
spliced and supported in the center.
A portable saw mill was sent down
on the Arctic to be used in fixing up
the ties for this purpose. A crew of
about seven men are to be employed
on this work.
The repair ship is now engaged in
cutting out bail parts of the cable
and it is being cut daily for certain
lengths of time, the navy wireless
handling the commercial work in the
meanwhile. The cable between Sitka
and Valdez never was any good and
was subjected to frequent breaks but
as time goes on it gets worse. The
present work is precautionary so that
it may eliminate the especially bad
sections which breaking in bad weath
er would be a difficult matter to re
pair.
Ira Ranke of the Arctic says that
the main activity along the coast this
year is fishing. There is a very much
larger quantity of fish being put up
this than in previous years. ,
By all accounts Nome is not go
ing to be the only place where an
investigation will be held. Said in
vestigation is to wider ramificatons
than many realized, according to this
report. You can hear almost any
thing of this sort just now.

Never again will Captain Erickson

lave been his on the Solomon trip
:urned out to have been taken by the
Arctic. In any event the Flyer had
lieen chartered for a trip to Siberia
uul will lose no time in loading up
for that part of the world. The wind
swinging slightly to the southward
from the west caused higher water
ind enabled him to clear the bar after
considerable trouble. The Belinda
is also chartered for a trip to Siberia
and its load is ready for it, but ow
ing to being in Snake river and the
water at the bar being still too low
for its draft, when it will get out de
pends upon the tide or wind which
will bring higher water. The lack of
proper harbor accomodatons in Nome
was never more fully evidenced in
its evil side than this shipping season
and has worked a great hardship on
owners.

COMMUNICATED
Nome, Alaska, Aug. 15, 191S.
Editor Industrial Worekr,
Dear Sir:—
In reply to an article appearing in
your columns purporting to be an in
terview of one John Jacobson in refer
ence to fish nets being stretched
across Nome River, permit me to
state emphatically that it is no part
of my official duties to investigate
violations of the fishing laws. As
Game Warden, I am an employee of
the department of Agriculture,
whereas fishing and fisheries are un
der the control of the Department
of Commerce and Labor.
I have the same interest, as has
every other good citizen in the com
munity, to see that all laws are in
fArced; but ns an official I will at no
time and without warrant, interfere
in any wise with the official dutips
of another department.
I have no desire to comment upon
what was, or particularly what was
not attended to by my predecessor;
but if Mr Jacobson would place this
matter that he appears to know so
much about before the proper local
authorities, and it is his duty so to
do, he would find it more satisfactory
than wasting so much perfectly good
printers ink. I have no personal
knowledge of the matter complained
of by him.
M. O. SOLBERG.
(Before this letter was received
this afternoon from Mr Solberg, tht
matter had already been dealt witl
elsewhere in these columns. W«
certainly agree that Mr Jacobson wa:
guilty of lese majeste in daring tc
criticize an official, and it is a pleas
ure to observe with what rapidity M
Solberg develops that wonderfull;
acute seventh sense of democrat!'
officials in resenting any commen
good or bad upon the performane
of duties.—Ed Industrial Worker.
