PLAN SUP BAY
TELEPHONE LINE
Operators In That Section Anx
ious for Communication With
Valdez Headquarters.
Mining companies operating
on Shoup bay and as far away as
the Cameron-Johnson and Gold
King properties, including the
Cliff and other camps between
Valdez and Columbia bay are
working to build a telephone
line from Valdez to Shoup bay,
where is will connect with the
line now in operation from the
beach to the Gold King.
The matter is now in the
hands of Colonel Mlliard and he
is having estimates made of the
cost of erecting the poles,
stringing the wires and other
incidental expenses.
If found practical, the line
will be built following the beach
to Mineral creek, along the
mountain side to the Cliff, then
across the point into and around
the shore of Shoup bay and up
over the glacier to the camps
now in operation.

IS A FIZZLE
Dr. Sun Flees From Canton to
Avoid Capture—Government
Troops Victorious.
Tokio, Japan, Aug'. 7.--Dr. Sufi,
leader of the revolt against the
present republican form of gov
ernment, lied from Conton yes
terday to avoid capture by the
federal troops.
The revolution has so far prov
en a fizzle and the government
troops are driving the rebels back
in every engagement.
There is a striking similarity
between the Fairbanks contro
versy over school affairs auid that
which is agitating the people at j
Nome at the present time. In the
one case the friends of one of the
employes of the city are fighting
to retain her as a member of the
teaching staff, against the judg
ment of the 'school hoard; in the
other cash the light is directed
against the retention of a teach
er who has the support of the
board. In both cases the contro
versies have engendered more
bitter feeling Ilian the circum
stances seem to warrant, and the
mild interest displayed by the
public at the outset is bei,ng sup
planted rapidly by a feeling of
resentment against the warring
factions.
