OUTSIDERS ARE INTERESTED
IN ALASKA SAYS ARRIVAL
Alaska is attracting widespread
interest in the States, according to
J. C. Van Orsdel, of the Mt. McKin
ley Gold Placers, Inc., who, accom
panied by Mrs. VanOrsdel, returned
from the East last week. But he
says he was amazed to find so many
people Outside who know absolute
ly nothing about tie Territory. Af
ter all the publicity that has been
given Alaska lately, he expected to
find people a little bit familiar with
conditisns, but he was disappointed.
The Van Orsdels spent some time
at Columbus, Ohio, and while there
Mr. VanOrsdel had the opportunity
to attend several gatherings of civic
organizations and was called upon
on each occasion to tell them about
the Northland. He mad» the most
cf the opportunity and was kept
busy, during their stay in the city,
answering all manner of questions.
Mr. VanOrsdel says there will be
representatives of several group* of
capital visit Alaska this year, and
it is his opinion there will be some
thing doing in the investment line.
He has it upon reasonably good
authority that capital is coming to
look the field over, at least.
Many times during their stay in
the States, the oldtimers wished they
were back in Alaska, for the winter
Outside was a severe one, even in
Sunny California, where heavy loss
es resulted from freezing tempera
tures. Cold weather in Southern Cal
ifornia cause such a demand for gas
for heating purposes, that the big
tanks were emptied, and one man
actually froze to death on Mt. Lowe.
The oil industry is booming in
the Poppy state, with new wells
coming in almost daily in some of
the newer fields. In one locality
j where oil was recently discovered,
1 he counted 200 derricks, and one
! of the towns is completely over-run
with them. In this particular town.
; which was previously a modest sum
mer resort, a gusher was grought in
with serious consequences to the
I entire neighborhood, all of the near
I by homes and streets being bathed
in crude oil. Scores of damage suits
followed and one woman nearly lost
her life when she tried to get rid
of the oil on her lawn by setting
fire to it.
Eddie Suter, former Fairbanksan.
is in the oil game at Huntington
, Beach and has five wells on his
leases.
John Metzger, former merchant
i at Fox, has opened a butcher shop
j near Tia Juana, Mr. Van Orsdel was
! informed.
R. M. (Waterfront) Brown was
seen riding around Los Angeles ir
| a Cadilac and is reported to have
fallen heir to a grubstake.
Ernest Foster, formerly in th<
employ of the A. E. C., at Nenana
is still in the cement contracting
business at Long Beach. He is i
grandfather now.
Auto accidents are giving the Lot
Angeles authorities much concert
and vigorous efforts are now beinf
made to so regulate traffic that ac
cidents will be re'1’—A The averagi
> death rate is something more thar
one a day.
Mr. VanOrsdel says that prices ii
the States are coming down steadilj
with the exception of rents, whicl
continue to form a source of louc
complaint in nearly all the large]
cities.
Mr. and Mrs. VanOrsdel went t<
Fairbanks on Sunday and, upon thei:
! return within the next few days
I will prepare to leave for the Kan
i tishna district, where they wil
j spend the summer.

OREGON SENATOR SEEKING
ANNUAL LABOR SUSPENSION
General Bulletin No. 10, issued by
the American Mining Congress on i
March 11, says that “various mining'
interests have called attention to the |
I fact that it would be desirable for
' Congress to again suspend the re
j quirement for performing assessment
work on mining claims. Under the i
| present law thi3 assessment work
1 must be performed within the fiscal
j year beginning July 1 and ending
June 30 the following year. Assess-1
’ ment work for 1921-22 must be'
j performed before June 30, 1922.
i Due to inactivity in the mining in-1
dustry and the fact that many mines
\ are closed, it has been pointed out
that the requirement to perform
assessment work this year will prove
: a serious hardship. Some months ago
! it was indicated that Congress could
1 not further suspend the assessment
requirement but appreciating the
[condition of the mining industry,
Senator Stanfield, of Oregon, has :n
! troduced a resolution suspending tne
■ assessment work until June 30,
i 1924.”
PAY YOUR TAXES
Taxpayers of Xenana are request
: ed to pay their taxes before April
; 15 and avoid the penalty of one per
cent per month, which will go into
, ■ effect immediately after that date,
i For the convenience of those who
are unable to leave their work, the
City Treasurer will be at his office
in the City Hall, corner of Third
and Market Streets, daily from five
'! to seven P. M.
SPELLING CONTEST GIVES
LOCAL SCHOOL HIGH MARK
j Four students of Franklin K.
Lane school attained a perfect score
in the final Territorial spelling ex
' animations sent to all schools by
Commissioner of Education L. D.
' Henderson.
These four students are Flora
Harper, fifth grade; Hazel and Ma
. bel Teeland, seventh grade; Wilfred
Stump, eighth grade.
The class record for the seventh
* and eighth grades is 100 per cent,
! or perfect. It is hardly probable
(although it is possible) that there
r i3 another school in Alaska with that
* record. The smallness of the class
r makes this high record possible.
j Besides these four 100 per cent
. students, there were four others
; who received grades above 90 per
' j cent, as follows: Harry Motscbman,
31 96; Ethel Rosburg, 96; John Scott,
1 94; Donald Fowler, 90.
e i The third grade will take their
t! Owing to the sudden illness of
: Mrs. A. B. Phillips, Franklin K.
t; Lane school has been closed tempor
- arily and the classes probably will
y not be resumed until the latter part
n of the month, the exact date not
t having been decided upon. Superin
> tendent Phillips reports from Fair
banks that Mrs. Phillips stood the
trip to the upper town without bad
n result and it is believed she will
recover rapidly under the care of
Dr. de la Vergne.
