COUNTRY
The latest number of the Hot Springs Echo to reach us says
the outlook on Sullivan continues to improve daily. The indica
tions are that there will be nearer 800 than 200 men in the district
working for wages this summer. It is not only the new finds which
have given the camp a new lease of life, but all along the line the
improvement in prospects is to be seen. Ground which was sup
posed by many people to be worked out, will support big crews of
men this summer. From Fred Dahm we learn that the Midni ght
Sun will produce more than ever before. Joe Eglar will also have
a big crew at work on the Independence, and all along the line the
same prosperous look is to be seen. When we say that the output
for this season will double that of any former season, we are mak
ng a very conservative statement regarding the Sullivan country.
NEW CUTTER FOR
ALASKAN WATERS
—
i
Washington, May 16 —In hisar-j
nual report Captain E. P. Bertholf,
of the United States revenue ser
vice, recommends the construction
ot a vessel to replace the Perry',
which was lost in Bering sea clur
ing the summer of 1910. He also
asks appropriations for three ves
sels to replace the cutters Manhat
tan, Winona and Woodbury—all
old and unserviceable.
Captain Bertholf also recommends
that lip-to date wireless apparatus
should be installed 011 all sea-going
revenue cutters. The current ap
propriation, lie points out, permits
cu'y two wireless operators on each
eutter, and three are necessary for
continuous service.
