Three Days of Dog Racing
.Fine weather and a fast track contrib

George Jimmy, also of Louden, not only
capped first money, but came close to

Items of Interest Relating to the
Approaching Election in Na
tion and Territory
Teddy May Cause Another Split
BOSTON, Feb. 26. Another .split in the
Republican party is regarded as inevitable
if the Roosevelt candidates for delegates-at
large to the national convention of the
party, to he held in Chicago in June, are
defeated at the primaries.
Seattle Editor’s Views
SEATTLE Jan. 26. Scott 0. Bone, editor
of the Post-Intelligencer, who went to Chi
cago to attend the meeting of the Repub
lican national committee, sums up the po
litical situation, so far as the Republican
party is concerned in a wire to his paper,
oubhshed today. He says:
“The three Americans popularly appraised
as best fitted and most available for the
leadership of the party during the coming
national contest are Justice Hughes of the
United States supreme court; ex-Prpsident
Theodore Roosevelt and former Senator
Root. They are definitely effaced front pre
liminary campaigning, but all serious polit
ical discussion and speculation still revolve
about and center upon this trio of great
Americans. The forecast made by many
at the present time omits one of them from
consideration. Exigency and expediency
continue to keep the name of Justice Hughes
foremost among those mentioned, notwith
standing the fact that he has repeatedly
declared he would not make the run.
The editor says there is littl? doubt that
both wings of the party will be reunited
and that all differences of the past will be
forgotten.
Wickersahm as Republican Nominee j
A Juneau dispatch in the Nome Nugget
rf January 19 says that it is generally pre
dicted at the territorial capital that Wick
er-ham will he the nominee of the Repub
lican convention for delegate The reason
given for this opinion is that there is every
prospect of an amalgamation of the Shackle
ford-Wickersham forces in the First divi
sion, which, combined with the Wicker
sham strength in the Fourth division, wi 1
vety likely give the delegate a preponder
ance of favor in the convention that will be
overcome only with the greatest difficulty.
It is known that Herron is trying to handle
the convention, but it is not believed that
he will prevail, owing to the fact that
S hackleford and others, who were hereto- j
fore in opposition to Wickersham. have de- j
eided that they will not oppose him this j
time, having recognized his strength as |
head of the ticket.

ft*All FOR KUSKOXWRT
leaves with regluarity
The volunteer mail service inaugurated j
by the residents of the lower Kuskokwim
country some time ago has proved a great
success, and the mail for that region has
been delivered with more regularity this
winter than ever before. It was the inten
tion at its inception to give a semi-monthly
service, and so far this has been accom
plished. Instead of waiting for the monthly
service front Holy Cross, to Bethel, the
Kuskokwim people now receive their mail
via Iditarod, and the added service is of
much benefit. It is the belief of the peopD
of that district that a showing sufficient
to warrant the postal authorities in giving
them a regular mail service from Iditarod
will be made.
Harry Nonogaki, the well-known Jap
anese, who is prospecting in the Bear creek
district, was the last man to take out the
mail. He 1 ft for Kolmakof last
Sunday, where Duke h. Stubbs takes charge j
of jt. The latter is temporarily residing at j
Kolmakof, but will return to the Aniak in j
the spring.

CONDITION OF WOMAN
FROZEN ON LONG TRAIL
(Ruby Record-Citizen, Feb. 13'
Mrs. Gussie Bolan, the woman who last
week badly froze her hands and feet, is
now under the care of Dr. Conley in the
hospital at Long. The doctor cannot yet
determine the amputation necessary, but 1
it is thought that both feet will have to be j
taken off above the ankles, and that the i
fingers of both hands will have to be taken J
off. Everything possible is being done to
alleviate the sufferings of the unfortunate
woman.
A letter was received this week from W.
Fred Swanson of Fourth of July creek, dis
claiming credit for finding and earing for
Mrs. Bolan, the publication of which is made
unnecessary by the following note of par
ticulars from W. E. Heron of the Salatna
roadhouse:
"I was told by Billy Evans, coming from
Boorman, that Mrs. Bolan left Boorman
about 5 p. m. the night before she was
found on the river, which was at about
12:30 p. m. Her story, told to Mike Mc
Carty of Spruce, while nursing her the sec
ond night, is corroborated by her tracks.
According to her story, she left Boorman for
Long City, and when reaching the Salatna
river she saw the row of posts, set to turn
people away from an overflow. In her in
sane condition she believed there was a trap
ret to catch her, and she told McCarty
she was not going to be caught. Hence she
walked around outside the posts and fell
over the river bank. In trying to cross the
river she encountered the overflow and re
turned to the place where she was found
by my barn man, about noon, with both
hands frozen, also both feet.
“Henry and I had her feet and hands in
a tub when C. K. Snow happened to drop
in from Fourth of July creek. He cer
tainly deserves credit for his assistance;
and also Mike McCarty, Fred Swanson and
his partner. They stayed three nights and
did everything in their power to relieve her
pain. There were more than half a dozen
others here who offered their services in
case they were needed.”

Jafet Lindeberg Honored
A Seattle dispatch states that the king
of Norway has conferred the Order of St.
Olaf upon Jafet Lindeberg, the discoverer
of gold at Nome, as a reward for fitting out
the steamship Corwin to rescue Steffansson
and for other acts of kindness performed
for Norwegians in Alaska by Lindeberg. The
Order of St. Olaf is one of the most dis
tinguished in the gift of the king.
O
Mail Carrier Makes Gruesome Find
The Golovin mail carrier found the frozen
body of E. Sorenson, who has been missing
since the big storm which caused so much
annoyance and suffering during the early
part of the month, says a Nome special of
January 20 to the Fairbanks News-Miner.
Sorenson, who was prospecting with his
partner, was on his way home after having
visited Blutf. In the big storm he lost his
way and wandered until he was overcome.
O
New Postmaster for Skagway
Word has been received in Juneau, ac
cording to the Empire, of the appointment
of Martin Conway to be postmaster at Skag
way. The appointment was made by the
President just before the adjournment of
congress for holiday recess. Conway is a
Democrat. Martin Conway is the United
States commissioner at Skagway, having
been appointed to that position by Judge
Robert W Jennings more than two years
ago.
O
Railroad Work Revives
The railroad offices at Anchorage are
now lined with men seeking contracts for
work on the construction of the road and
the contracts are being awarded as fast as
possible for clearing and grading work on
the Matanuska branch. A thousand men
are expected soon to be at work on the
money coming front the emergency fund.
The construction of the building for tiie
commission will begin immediately and the
contract has been let.

Judge Bunnell Had a Hard Tr*p
After a hard trip from the coast, Judge
C. E. Bunnell of the Fourth judicial divi
sion of Alaska arrived in Fairbanks on
January 24, completing the last lap of his
long journey from the Outside with a dog
team. Regarding the trip to Washington,
with stops at Chitina, Cordova, Juneau, Se
attle, Pennsylvanian and other points, Judge
Bunnell said it was a most enjoyable one,
with the exception of the last few days,
during which severe weather prevailed.
Severe Weather at Fairbanks
Never in the history of Interior Alaska,
at least in the memory of any white man,
have the Tt:nana and Yukon river valleys
suffered with cold as they did during the
forty-eight hours preceding January 21, ac
cording to Fairbanks advices. Fairbanks
business was practically at a standstill, no
cne venturing from home unless forced to
do so. As nearly as can be learned the
!ve=t temperature registered in Fairbanks
was 66 degrees below zero. The telegraph
operator at Richardson wired that it was
SO degrees below zero there, which prob
ably is the coldest ever known in the Tan
ana valley.
O
Sen'ational Charge Against Judge
What is. perhaps, one of the most extraor
dinary statements ever mdae by a member
of an Alaska city council was made last
night openly at the Seward city council
meeting when Councilman Borgen declared
that Judge F. M. Brown of the district court
of this division had decided for the dock
company against the city of Valdez because
he himself, the judge, was a stockholder in
the dock company, says the Gateway of
January 18. Borgen even went so far as
fo declare that the higher court would re
verse the decision of Judge Brown, presum
ably became the decision would be found
to have been influenced bv the fact stated.

Big Real Estate Deaj at Fairbanks
.1. H. Patten has sold to John A. McIn
tosh. Mrs. John A. McIntosh and Walter
Adami the property situated on Cushman
street, between Third and Fourth avenues,
Fairbanks, which is commonly known as
the Third Avenue hotel property. The con
sidcration has not been made public, but it
is said upon reliable authority to have been
$15,000, according to the News-Miner. At
the present time the large front offices on
the second floor of the building are occu
pied by McGowan & Clark. The Third Av
enue bath house and the Globe bar occupy
the lower floor. It is probable that The Lit
tle Shop, which is owned by Mrs. McIntosh,
and which is now located on Second av
enue. will at some future date be moved
to the corner of Third avenue and Cush
man street.

More About That Gold
The Petersburg Report says that H. S.
Wilson, traveling auditor for the Wells
Fargo Express Company, was in town re-:,
cently. He had just completed a trip which',
included ail principal points in Alaska. Mr.
Wilson was in Seward recently when the big
gold shipment arrived from the Iditarod.
Two dog teams brought the yellow stuff over
the trail, it requiring twenty-seven days to
make the trip. The teams were accom
panied by four men, headed by Bob Griffis,
an old-time trail man. Bringing the $600,
000 in gold front Iditarod to Reward cost
the express company $3,000. Added to this,
insurance, covering loss by theft, shipwreck
or any other mishap, cost $2.50 per thou
sand from Iditarod to Seattle. The ship
ment was landed in Seattle by the North- |
western. i
O
Tolovana to Produce a Million
The Fairbanks News-Miner says that at I
no time since pay was struck in the Tol >- ;
vana district has the outlook been as good
as at the present time. It is now conserv
atively estimated bv mining and business
men who are in touch with conditions that
the output of the Tolovana will be at least
a milium dollars during the year 1916. This
amount is expected to come from Liven
good and Olive creeks el-me, and if others
show up as well as indicated now, it will
be somewhat larger. This estimate of a
million dollars is not on prospects, but is
made of the known pay that has been found.
According to one man who is interested ex
tensively, and who has made a careful ex
animation of the various properties, Gus
Peterson aline could take out nearly a half
million dollars during the coming summer
if he cared to put on a large enough crew,
lie has the pay and is in a position to han
dle it if he cared to rush matters.
O
Nome Swede in Highland Costume
In a recent issue of the Seattle Times
Scotty Allen, who took dogs from Nome for
the use of the French army in the Vosges,
tells through Jack Underwood of some won
derful happenings while he was in France, i
One day at the front Kennett Marr, an- i
other Nome boy who had accompanied j
hint, drew his attention to a man in kilts !
who was a member of a Scotch regiment, i
and who was that kilted warrior but a
Swede who worked formerly at Nome!
“Well, sir, you could ’a’ knocked me down
with a feather," said Allen, describing the
experience. “Right there in the front rank
of a regiment of kilted Highlanders stood
that great, big Swede who used to work i
for the telephone company at Nome. Him :
a Scotchman! Why, he could scarcely
speak English the last time I saw him up at
Nome.” Scotty speaks of the Nome men :
’ll the war Fox Ramsey. Father Bernard, ;
Billy Vint and French Consul Schneider. I
1 he last-named is running a big packing j
plant to supi ly the troops.
Horrible Accident at Seward
The left foot of John Johnson, fireman ;
on the steamer Dora, was torn off at the
ankle yesterday morning when his limb got |
caught in a loop of the rope with which the \
boat was being tied up at the dock, says j
the Seward Gateway of January 31. The
rope circled around the shin and tightened
as it went through the chauk, drawing the
leg with it. The chauk is the hole in the
side of a ship through which ropes are run.
Coming to this hole, the foot was dragged
in, and as it was too large to pass through,
it was torn off at the ankle. It fell into 1
the bay still encased in its shoe. The un
fortunate sufferer evidently had stepped '
into one of the loops of the rope as it lay j
on the deck and was being played out as j
the boat moved. Johnson met the accident j
with real grit. He never lost, consciousness I
and is said to have instructed those around !
to get a rope and tie up the limb to prevent i
too much bleeding. He was taken to the !
Pioneer hospital, and Drs. Romig and Sloan |
amputated the leg about a third of the ■
way up to the kne.e The young man comes j

Seward Wants to Protect Pacific Coast j
The Seward Chamber of Commerce has
started a campagin fur military prepared- j
ness in Alaska. The executive board is
making every effort to show the adminis
tration the great advantages of putting the
Northland on a war basis, and the necessity
of doing so. In wires addressed to President
Wilson, and in communications to the sec- \
retary of the navy and the secretary of.
war, it is urged that immediate steps be
taken and that work commence at once to i
put Resurrection bay in shape for a coaling
station. The Chamber of Commerce wants
the work to start at this time, so that !
everything will be in readiness the minute j
coal can be landed at the water’s edge. A (
reservation of 350 acres has been set aside j
for naval uses, and on this site the people ;
of Seward would like to see the navy yard j
built. The President was asked to make
provision as soon as possible for the forti- i
fication of the entrance of Resurrection
bay. The bay has been declared to be 3
natural fortification by experts, and it would
lake but a small force to make it as im
pregnable as the Dardanelles, they say. The
Chamber of Commerce declares that a fleet
of submarines operating from Seward as a
base could protect the entire coast of
Alaska and the Pacific coast with greater
ease than from any other point. It is cer
tain, the executive board declares, that the
coast of Alaska could be better protected
by submarines operating from Seward than
from any other point. It is also stated that
Alaska is the richest possession of the
United States and that it is the only one
that is practically defenseless.
