BUILDING MCH
TO DOHERTY MINE
Dick Doherty, whose coal mine is
reciting so much attention from the
pessimist, is going to prove that his
judgment was not at fault and upon
the completion of his plans will be
able to deliver Moose creek coal in
Anchorage. Mr. Doherty's coal
mine is located about one half mile
up Moose creek from the line of the
government railroad and he now has
a force of 25 men working on the
grade for his new coal railroad. This
road will follow the contour of the
hills front his mine to the nearest
practical connection with the gov
ernment railroad at which point he
i will also erect a 500-ton bunher
which will allow his coal to be load
ed in the government cars and trans
- ported by gravity to the terminal,
and on to Anchorage for the local
dealer, and for fuel for the people
of Anchorage.
UN ORGANIZE
AW.C.T.U.
Mrs. Eva S. Gilmore, who is in An
, chorage in the behalf of temperance,
has been working faithfully with the
assistance of local ladies, to the end
of organizing a local W. C. T. V.
This was accomplished Wednesday
afternoon at the residence of Dr.
McBride when about 20 Anchorage
ladies met and organized r W. C. T.
U. with Mrs. Dr. McBride as presi
dent. Mrs. C. R. Greaves, secretary,
and Mrs. J. R. Rock treasurer. The
next meeting will be held Wednes
day, June 2S, at the residence of Dr.
McBride. Of the many worthy y.'o
- jeets undertaken by American wom
an none have reached the magnitude
and success as that accomplished by
the W. C. T. r.
To this organization, more than
. any other reason, does America owe
so much in the matter of prohibition
and temperance: to the ceaseless ef
forts of its members is due the fact
that this country is today teing fcen
edted by the local abolishment of
i.qiror ::ua me -aiuiea memrr; oi
such noble Tomen as Francis Wil
lard and Susan B. Anthony will lire
forever with the people of America.

BASE BALLASTS
HAVE GRIEVANCE
Editor Daily Times:
The ball players of the three dif
ferent clubs met last night and se
riously considered the actions of
the committee of the Anchorage
Athletic association. The resolu
tions ff passed bv the aoove com
mittee which v,erei that they take alt
the money received at the gate and
that no passes would be issued to
the ball players were after a leng
thy d.scussion considered unjust and
unreasonable.
The ball players considered that
the Anchorage Athletic association
was not the only club that had ex
penses to be met and deemed it only
right that some division of' the gate
receipts should be made in order to
pay the actual running expenses of
the clubs; also to liquidate in the
best way possible the debts which
they have contracted in organizing
their respective clubs. Although the
indebtedness of the individual teams
are not as great as that incurred by
the Anchorage Athletic association,
still they have their debts and the
only way they can hope to meet same
is by a division of the gate receipts.
To this end in view :t was discussed
as to what division of the gate re
ceipts should be made: It was fi
nally agreed that a committee wait
upon the Anchorage Athletic associ
ation and state to them that it had
been decided by the ball players
that they wanted 50 per cent of the
gate receipts to be divided between
the ball players, and the other 50
per cent to be kept by the Anchorage
Athletic association. This percent
age was considered by all present to
be just and reasonable.
It was next considered that the
Anchorage Athletic association
should allow a pass to all ball play- i
ers and one to accompany him
(wife, sweetheart or otherwise).
In considering this question of
passes it was shown that not over
15 passes would be taken advantage
of. and it was also shown that if the
passes weTe not given that none of
the ball players would sit in the
grand stand, thereby causing no rev
enue to the association. It was al
so agreed by the ball players tjiat if
the passes were given them and it
rKnt
rtf the
rrand stand -.was taxed that the hall
players would not take advantage of
the pass- and if they were in the
grand stand they would get up and
leave.
We '■onsider all of the above re
quests within the bounds of reason
and that if they are not granted the
committee would report ba;k to the
ball ].levers at a meeting to be held
Saturday night and definite action
would then be taken.
