DAWSON, Jan. 14.—Somewhere on
the tong snow trail between here and
Fort Macpherson on the Arctic ocean
near the mouth of the MacKenzie
river, a patrol of four Royal North-'
west Mounted Police and an Indian
trail guide are “mushing” northwardj
behind dog teams carrying mail and
newspapers to their brother officers
' and other white people who live along
Canada’s western Arctic rim.
At Fort Macpherson the Dawson
patrol expects to exchange mails with
a similar patrol sent from Herschel
Island. When the exchanges are made
both patrols will return to their sta
tions. The Dawson police are expect
ed back in March. They left January
3.
Official reports of the discoveries
and finding of Vilhjalmur Stefansson,
the Arctic explorer, probably will be
brought back and forwarded to the
Canadian government at Ottawa by
the Dawson patrol. It is believed here
Stefansson is at Herschel Island and
will send his reports to the outside
world with the two police patrols.

(By Associated Press!
SEATTLE, Jan. 14—Hardy pioneers
who go to Alaska to develop its lands
should be given special inducements
by the government, asserts Professor
C C. Georgeson, who is in charge of
the government’s agricultural experi
ment stations in the northern terri
tory. “They should by all means have
reduced rates of transportation,’’ he
said while here recently, “because it
costs as much to take the necessary
farm implements in Alaska as it does
to purchase a small sized farm in the
states outside.”

Anchorage was treated to the un
usual sight of a man racing around
town in his B. V. D.s recently just
before dawn and the man was not ar
rested for insanity either It is a sim
ple matter to explain for the man was
Spanish Joe who was training for a
match at the Labor Union’s smoker.
The weather was down to zero and
often below but Spanish Joe did not
seem to mind.
