While there if reason to believf
the President i= right in deferring
action on the Porto Rican situatior
until such time as all the facts car
be obtained regarding the contro
versy in which Governor Reilly ha
become involved, it is apparent t.
outsiders that the governor is r.c
big enough for the job he holds
and for that reason, if for no other
he should be asked to give way t<
a man who can handle the island
ers with less disturbance and em
barrassment to the administration
It is somewhat amusing to fine
the President boosting for a bij
navy personnel after all that tall
of reduced armaments at the late
Arms conference. The trouble is
the public has not beer, permittee
to understand the real situat'or
on account of the strict secrecy
maintained by these in attendant
at the conference.
That deputy chief of staff whe
yesterday appeared before the sen
ate committee on appropriations i
plead the necessity for a larg<
standing army, probably would havi
declared unblushingiy. had the- law
makers been wise enough to questioi
him. that it is necessary’ for th<
’ protection of Alaska to maintai:
several companies of sold’crs in th<
Territory
While it is hard to believe Ar
buckle can ever refrain his o'.i-t'.jm
popularity among movie he r ?r-go
ers. it is already apparent that I t
can and will “come back"—afte:
a fashion. The thing that will maki
his recovery difficult is the fac
that his only role is that of a clowi
and an asset to him only to thi
j extent of his ability to .**. - peoplt
laugh. He may be able to look anc
act as silly as he ever did, but
will take a long time to make somt
of his former admirers forget. A
man like Theodore Roberts, for in
stance, would have an easier tim1
of it.
Mrs. Sarah Wright McDannold. ar
early-day resident of the Dawsoi

States, to her son-in-iaw. George C
Uthes, according to a clipping re
ceived on the last mail by Harri
Davis, of the Terminal, who was i
neighbor of the lady in the Yukoj
metropolis.

IN
REPUBLICAN PRIMARY
APRIL 25th, 1922
In the course of e three column paid article, appearing in the
News-Miner of March 30, prepared and signed by him, M. O. P.
Gaustad, Dan Sutherland’* personal and political representative, in
the Fourth division, says:
“Some don't like hi* (Sutherland’s) stand upon the administra
tion measure known as the ‘New Bill’. I am not familiar with the
provisions of this bill but I am more willing to take the judgment
of Dan Sutherland upon its effect upon Alaska and Alaskans than
any other person I know and the fact that he is favoring the meas
ure and that Secretary Fall is to administer the affairs of the Ter
ritory under its provisions is assurance enough that there is nothing
very dangerous or detrimental in it. AT LEAST IT WILL START
SOMETHING."
Mr. Gaustad is right. IT HAS STARTED SOMETHING that
will not stop until Mr. Sutherland is thoroughly rebuked at the
polls for this betrayal of his constituents.
If Mr. Gaustad will familiarise himself with Section Three of
the New Bill, that authorizes Mr. Fall to lease the Alaska Railroad
to private interests, he will know why Dan Sutherland’s support of
this bill "HAS STARTED SOMETHING." He ought to know that
real Alaskan* will not stand for their delegate supporting such a
measure or attempting to foist a one-man rule upon this Territory.

M DONALD MAKES FAST TRIP
TO LOWER RIVER CAMPS
Bronzed by the blinding rays of
a bright spring sun, and considerably
reduced in weight by long hours on
the trail, Vance R. McDonald, sour- '
dough Alaska traveling man and a !
candidate for nomination for mem-1
ber of the territorial legislature, re
, turned to town this week from a
visit to the Ruby, Poorman and j
' Kuskokwim districts. He left N'er.ana
for the lower Yuk >n on March 9
i and covered a distance of approxi
mately 950 miles during his ab-1
sence of 32 days. He was on the j
trail a total of 27 days. The run
from McGrath to Nancy was made
in four and one-half days, with five
dogs, which is record traveling for
the Rainy Pass trail.
Mr. McDonald admits that he
traveled early and late but says the
splendid condition in which he found
the trails was responsible for his
quick trip.
Conditions are somewhat quiet at
Ruby, the population of that once
lively town having dwindled to a
mere handful of people. About all
that remains is a trading post and
a sawmill. The big dredge which
was to have beer, moved to Gaines
Creek, in the Innoko district, dur
ing the past winter, is still on the;
river bank near Ruby.
There is some mining in progress
or, Long Creek. Dennis Coyle being
one of the operators. The galena
property, back from the Yukon, 50'
miles below Ruby, was operated
during the winter, and about 50 tons;
of ore has been landed at the river |
for shipment after the opening of
navigation.
There are two dredges in the
Ophir district and two more are to;
be installed. One of the new ones j
is now at Takotna from which point
it will be hauled to its destination
. by a tractor.
i The quartz property which is be-;
developed in the Kuskokwim by the
Treadwell company, continues toj
show good values, but it is said the ]
size of the ore body is proving some
what of a disappointment. A new
quartz lead of considerable promise
] is reported to have been found in!
that locality recently, but very little
appeared to be known about the i
find.
, The Aitken dredge on Candle had i
a very good run last summer and

it is said there is enough rich ground'
left to keep the dredge busy for ,
several more years, at least. There
are two other outfits on the creek.
Mr. McDonald me: John W. Dunn.
Hank Wailick and Jim Huntington
on the Yukon and learned from
them that there had been no new
developments during the winter in -
the Hog River district. Dunn and
Wailick spent the winter there and
did a lot of prospecting.
The catch of fur along the Yukon
during the winter is reported to,
have been good, with the result1
that native and white trappers are
fairly prosperous this spring.
Conditions in the Cripple Creek
district are better than usual, with
considerable mining in progress and
in prospect.
Mr, McDonald did not visit the
Iditarod district, the time at his •
disposal being too limited and the
season too far advanced. He will
go to Fairbanks tomorrow and from
there to the Circle district.
There will be a three-hour stcial
dance at the Orpheuin tonight. The
music will star: at »:30.
