Col. John C. Gotwals, chairman of
the Alaska Road Commission, who
left Cordova on yesterday’s train for
Chitina plans to establish the French
plan of placing patrols on the roads
to keep them in good shape after re
pairs have been effected, each man
having a certain section of the road
to keep up. This system has proven
most effective in the states. The
Colonel also plans to get all necessary
road equipment from the war depart
ment.

The membership contest, which has j
been carried on by the Juneau and
Ketchikan Methodist Sunday schools
came to a finish, with the Juneau
school as the winner. This contest
was started on the first Sunday of
January for the purpose of increasing
the attendance in both schools, and
those in charge at both the Juneau
and Ketchikan schools are more than
pleased with the results, in fact, so
pleased that arrangements are pend
ing to make it a semi-annual event.

Arrangements are being made to
billet the company of soldiers from
Foil William H. Seward that will be
,n Juneau for the Fourth of July cele
bration in regular camp style. They
Mill bring their own equipment and
the Garside building has been obtain
ed for the purpose. Governor Thom
as Riggs, jr„ has stated that three
torpedo boats that have been assigned
to Alaska will be on hand for the
celebration.
The Ketchikan Chronicle is author
ity for the statement that a most de
moralizing and flagrant disregard of
the laMr is going on in that city. It
states that open gambling is going on
in the center of the town, with every
game running that the heart may de
sire, and bets anywhere from two bits
to the blue sky. It alleges that on
top of the gambling, the games are all
crooked, and the operators old-time
gamblers and tinhorns run out of other
towns. Today there are as many pro
fessional gamblers fleecing the fisher
men and business men as in old wide
open days, and the patrons of the
games are being furnished all the
strong drinks they want. The paper
claims that in one block within a ra
dius of fifty yards four games are in
prgoress nightly. The city adminis
tration is called on to run the sure
thing men out of the city, and also
the men who are living off the pros-1
titutes.
