While it is probably true, as
charged by Senator Harrison, that
President Harding, in his letter to
Representative McCormick, called at
tention to the achievements of the
present Congress with a view to
aiding in the election of Bursum,
of New Mexico, to a seat in the
senate, the President did not make
a direct appeal for votes, as was
done by President Wilson during
several Alaska campaigns, in an ef
fort to insure the election of Demo
cratic candidates for delegate to
Congress.
When Judge Bunnell was a can
didate for delegate. President Wil
son, without even knowing the can
didate. sent a telegram to Alaska
on the eve of the election, to in
form Alaskans that the Democratic
candidate stood well at Washington.
Ana on at least one other occasion
in Alaska, sumilar tactics were em
ployed by the same Democratic
President, not to mention special
trips ar.d messages to New Jersey:
to prevent Republican elections in
that part of the country.
And in the face of that. Presi
dent Harding is criticised because
he wrote a letter to a member of
Congress, complimenting the Repub- I
liean members upon the good show’
ing made by them during the special
session, up to the time of the recess.
If the accomplishments of Con
gress were realyy as stated by the
President in his letter, the country
should rejoice in the fact that an
other Republican has been sent to
Washington. If the letter helped to
elect him. The News fails to see
wherein any particular damage has
been done.
It has been suggested that the re
cent mail robbery was not commit
ted in Fairbanks, for the reason
that some of the money was left in
the package.
While postal and federal officials
are engaged in investigating the re
cent mail robbery. The News makes
bold to suggest that they u-e the:r
influence to speed up the mail ser
vice generally, as wee! as put a
stop to the pilfering which has been
going on since the very early days
of the Fairbanks district. The ser
vice has degenerated to the point
where the wear and tear from long
drawn-out deliveries involves almost
as much risk as the operation of
mail robbers.
BUNNELL TO CALL ELECTION
FOR NENANA INCORPORATION
Townsite Manager Carl Schmidt,
who returned to Nenana today from
Fairbanks, where he attended the
Ner.anan incororation hearing before
District Judge C. E. Bunnell, as a
member of the Nenana incorporation
committee, reports that the petition
for incorporation was favorably act
ed upon, and that an order will be
issued immediately, setting the date
for a public election, at which time
the voters of Nenana will have the
opportunity to finally decide whether
or not the town shall incorporate.
J. Hampton Miles appeared at the
hearing for the purpose of opposing
favorable consideration, but his ob
jections were overruled by the court
the committee having gone to Fair
' banks repared to meet all argu
ments.
One of the objections made by
Mr. Miles was that certain of the
names appearing on the petition
were not residents of the town of
Xenana. It was made clear to the
court, however, that all of the sign
ers of the petition reside within the
boundaries of the area which will
be included in the town if incorpor
ation is decided upon. It is proposed
to take in all of the railroad reserve
The committee was represented at
the hearing by Attorney M. E. Stev
ens. The members of the committee
present were Carl Schmidt and
Mayor Joe O’Connor.

COPPER IS PLENTIFUL
WASHINGTON. D. C.. Sept. 22
Experts of the Geological Survey
estimate that there are at present in
the United States surplus copper
stocks of between 550 million and
a billion and a quarter pounds.
Little credence is given to reports
that the genera! surplus remaining
after the war has been disposed of.
It is estimated that there is a
sufficient supply on hand to supply
domestic consumption for at least
six months, and possibly a year.

SEASON NEARING AN END;
LAST BOAT TO SAIL SOON
The season of navigation between
Xenana and the upper Yukon will
be brought to a close early next
weak with the arrival and departure
of the steamer Alaska, which will be
the last boat out of N'enana for
Dawson, sailing about Monday. The
season has already closed, as far as
lower river connections are con
cerned. the steamer Xanana, sailing
several days ago. having been the
last boat to make connections for
the lower Yukon.
The steamers Yukon and Tanam
i are now enroute up river, the form
er being enroute from Dawson on
[her last trip of the season. The Yu
kon should arrive tomorrow and
will turn here, getting away probably
on Saturday, direct for Whitehorse,
where she will go into winter quart
ers. The Tanana will winter on the
w:ays at Chena. sailing for that point
as soon as all of the late freight
has been landed.
The Seattle X'o. 3, which arrived
at Gibbon from the lower river
this week, will go to Dawson for the
winter, leaving the army town pro
bably within the next day or two.
The l^st mail of the season out
of Dawson, for h'enar.a and lower
river points, will be dispatched by
launch from Dawson on Sunday,
and the last mail for the upper
Yukon will be dispatched from X'e
nana on the Alaska on Monday, ar
whenever the boat gets away.
The Alaska will turn here, without
waiting to wash boilers, it being
the intention of the company to
speed the boats to winter quarters
safely in advance of the arrival of
cold weather. The company does
not intend that there shall be a re
petition of last season’s delays and
losses.
