MRS. HENRY BAATZ, Proprietress.
SAYS
HAVE
FAVORED SPOT
Oldtimer Returns With News of the
Great Outside, Where Living
Costs Are High.
Among the arrivals on the steamer
Yukon yesterday was Henry Rap
polt, well known resident of Ne
nana, who has just returned after
an absence of nearly a year in the
States. Mr. Rappolt comes almost
direct from the national capital,
where he spent the greater part of
the winter.
Asked regarding conditions on the
Outside, Mr. Rappolt said that
everything is war in the States, es
pecially in the East, where there is
evidence of the great struggle on
j every hand. The hum of industry
* i can be heard everywhere, American
* i soldiers are very much in evidence
* | and there is a steady stream of
people traveling back and forth
across the continent. Going both
ways, the trains are crowded to
their capacity.
The country as a whole, Mr. Rap
polt says, is very prosperous, with
unusual demands for almost every
product, and wages higher than they
have been in years. But, he con
tinued, unless one is engaged ir
certain lines of business, with con
* I siderable capital invested, the
i portunities for making money ai
* ; not great. Abnormal costs and heav
t overhead expenses eat up about a
the profits in a majority of the lim
of business. And the wage earne
although receiving more money no
than ever before, finds it about i
difficult as ever to make bo'th en<
* ! meet, because of the high cost <
!► living. Provisions are high, ren
» ! are soaring, the cost of clothing h:
► advanced by leaps and bounds an
t amusements are becoming more e:
* ! pensive steadily.
^ I Skilled mechanics, working on tl
* Pacific coast, are very well pai
^ and a few, in special lines, are drav
^ ing bankers’ wages. But the ave
t j age workingman, he says, has nc
^ I been benefitted greatly by tl
^ changed conditions. Wages are n<
^ advancing fast enough to keep u
^;with the rising cost of living.
Mr. Rappolt believes that Ala
♦
kans are very well off where th
^ are. All things considered, he sa;
Northerners can do as well here
, they could in the States, and ma
of them can do better here.
With regard to the work of ra
tl
ing money for the Red Cross, L
erty bonds and other war funds,
; j says there is great rivalry amo
I the Outside cities and campaif
♦ i
• of one sort or another, are
»i
progress continually. During
; ; day, while he was in Seattle,
; route to Alaska, he was tagged s
J* fined at almost every corner,
£ aggregate of his contributions
* that day being something like ei
i dollars.
n Mr. Rappolt is very much
11 proved in health, for the benefit
; which he was compelled to go
side last year. He has come he
to stay.

m THIRD LIBERTY BONDS
HAVE BEEN RECEIVE!
Mr. C. H. Hall, special disbursinj
agent of the Alaskan Engineerinj
commission wishes to make an
nouncement that the bonds of th
Third Liberty Loan were receivei
by registered mail on the steame
Yukon yesterday and may now b
claimed by the purchasers.
The bonds received by Mr. Hal
are in the fifty and one hundrei
dollar denominations, and purchas
ers are requested to call for then
at the disbursing office in the mail

temporary receipts issued by Mi
Hall and Mr. Cramer at the tiiv
the money for such bonds was re
ceived.
OF
Steady Progret* I* Made With the
Building of the Government
Railroad.
Section gangs Nos. 2 and 3 have
been consolidated and are now in
charge of Foreman Mike Dunn.
This gang is now engaged in the
work of cribbing up the grade up »o
the end of steel on the old location
and are making very satisfactory
progress. This work has been un
dertaken for the purpose of tem
porarily repairing the road to per
mit of the locomotives running out
and hauling to the new D line all of
the railroad construction material,
consisting of ties, bridge timbers,
rails, etc., that had been distributed
on the line before the dicision to
build on the new location had been
arrived at.
Much of this material, especially
the ties, bridge timbers and saw
logs had been cut under contract
in the woods adjacent to the old
location, and hauled to the right
of way.
The pump station erected at Clear
creek to serve the needs of the
locomotives operating on the old line
between town and the end of steel,
was dismantled yesterday for re
moval to a previously selected site
on the new D line, where it will
be set up as soon as possible. The
Brown hoist was engaged in the
work of dismantling and loading
the plant on flat cars.
The pump station at Clear creek
was composed of a big wooden tank
supported by a lofty tower-like
structure, which housed the boiler,
pump and fixtures.
The flat cars on which the pump
station had been loaded were hauled
to Bailey station last night and will
probably be held there temporarily
until the foundations for the pump
station on the new site on the D
line have been prepared.
The work of building the railroad
on the new location is proceeding
as rapidly as conditions will permit
and the force will be added to from
time to time in acocrdance with the
exigency of the service.
