FREIGHT MOVING
INTO INTERIOR
McIntosh Will Send Out Another Out
fit Next Saturday Morning With
Freight for Different Points.
.
Bob McIntosh, the freighter, sent
out twelve neaa of horses yesterday
morning with big ioads consigned to
many different points. The teams will
travel together as far as possible
on the government road before sep
arating in order that they can take
advantage of the broken road.
The miners are beginning to send
out by horse teams their outfits in
preference to buying dog teams and
going to other expense in getting
their supplies into the new camps.
The roadhouses along the road are
also stocking up heavily in anticipa
tion of the heavy travel which is
sure to result from the work of the
miners in the Nelchina and Chisana
camps.
Among tnose wnose outnts went
out yesterday morning were Rochill
and Johnson, bound for the Nelchi
na. Others going to the Nelchina
were Jos. Nicklsou and Geo. Chrisk.
John Paulson left for the head of the
Copper river, where he will pros
pect, and the Big Sweede for the
Shushanna.
The roadhouses for which supplies
were taken were Wortmans, The
Drop, Ernestine, Copper Center and
Gulkana. Mr. McIntosh states that
he has received sufficient orders al
ready to warrant sending out more
horses next Saturday morning.

HIGH GOST IS
UHM1LE
Return to Simplicity of Our Fa
thers Would Solve Problem, Says
Marvin.
PITTSBURG, Pa., Nov. 20.—“The
high cost of living can be summed
up in a few words,” said S. S. Mar
vin, of Philadelphia, president of the
National Biscuit company, who Is
here in connection with a campaign
to raise $300,000 for the Western The
ological seminary.
"When we were boys our mothers
used to give us a bowl of milk for
supper, and we were the better off
for that plain but wholesome diet.
There would be no high cost of liv
ing to speak of if people would eat
mush and milk nowadays. But they
won't. Yet I can see no better men
physically or mentally than those we
reared in the bygone days.
"Then the women went to the mar
kets with their baskets on their arms.
They did not call up the grocer or
the butcher on the telephone to deliv
er a five-cent loaf of bread or a soup
bone. The grocer and butcher must
meet his expenses. People ask to be
served, and they must pay for it.”
