CHIT1 TRAIL TO .
DECEIVE REPAIRS
Col. W. P. Richardson, chairman
of the Alaska Road Commission, who
has been in Washington, D. C., for
the winter, is returning to Valdez.
Among the plans for the coming sum
mer are included the building of a
bridge across the Chena slough, at
Fairbanks, and the probable replac
ing of a bridge at Nome, destroyed by
the storm two years ago. Other plans
of (he comission call for the repairing
and maintenance of present roads in
the north, with special attention to
be paid to the Fairbanks-Chitina road.
Col. Richardson deplores the fact
that the appropriations for road work
in Alaska is so small. “The total
fund is very inadequate,” he said.
“The special appropriation made by
Congress is but $165,000, to which will
be added in the neighborhood of
$100,000 from the Alaska fund."

BE RECRUITED
LONDON, May 1—The appointment
by the Home Secretary to work up re
cruiting among the shop salesmen has
caused the secretary of the sales
mens* union to protest agalnBt what
he terms an unwarranted Insinuation.

been backward In answering the call
to arms, he mentions a dry goods
firm with 43 per cent of Its 300 men
in the army, and a grocery with 30
per cent of 480 men serving. Most
of those remaining, he says, have
shown good reasons'for It.

IVES HUS GONE
TO THE TOLOVANA
E. J. Ives, partner of Frank Manley
and Jack Price, and one of the best
known operators in the north, has
gone to the Tolovana district. He
came from Beattie upon getting au
thentic news concerning the new camp
which Is now attracting wide atten
tion along the Pacific coast, and is
on his way to look over the new dls
trle> with a view of acquiring what he
can in there.
Jack Price expected to come with
him, but was called away on another
deal and could not come at this time,
so Ives came as the representative of
the three big operators. He la a
quiet, unassuming man, but his ap
pearance In the Tolovana camp Is an
other of the brightest signs that the
camp has exhibited, for he has the
reputation of doing things.
This big-three combination are the
original laymen on the James ground

shaw. The latter has not made good
and is now being sued by them to en
force the contract.

ANNOY 80ME SENATORS
Some of the senators from the
"wilds of Alaska" are somewhat dis
tracted by the constant buzz and hum
the automobiles which pass under the
windows of the legislative hall. It
took them some time to get used to
the elevator In the Goldstein building,
and even now some of them prefer
to climb three stories rather than
trust themselves to the modern life—
