CALL HALT ON
ABUSE OF FREE
RIDE PRIVILEGE
On some divisions of the railroad
men are apparently abusing the free
transportation privilege afforded to
employes, by only working a few days
at a job, quitting and demanding a
free ride.
The district engineers of the central
division have been instructed to re
fuse free transportation to men leav
»ing their employ, unless they have
1 worked a reasonable length of time
and give satisfactory service.
PROGRESS ON
TELEPHONE AND
TELEGRAPH LINE
On the Seward division 310 poles
were set during the week ending May
26, completing the new line between
Kern Creek and Mile 63, with the ex
ception of anchors and wiring.
This work was done under direction
of Resident Engineer Tiehnor and
splendid results were achieved in re
aucing fhc icst of construction.
The telephone and telegraph crew
working north on the Matanuska
branch reached Mile 10 with complet
ed work, setting 78 poles and 8 anch
ors in difficult territory during the
period. On the main line 90 poles
were set, and 26 anchors. The tem
porary line has reached Indian river,
17 miles above Dead Horse hill, but
no telephones have yet been installed.
_A_
INDIAN RESERVE
CLOSED NIGHTS
According to a notice posted this
week at the western boundary of the
Indian reserve at the upper end of
Fairbanks the reserve is now closed
to outsiders daily after 6 o’clock. The
notice was posted following the issu
ance of an official order by Commis
sioner Robert E. Burns and is in line
with a similar action taken at Fort
Ciibbon and other places in Alaska
where Indian villages are located near
white settlements. White visitors
may enter the village as formerly dur
ing the day, but after G p. m. all such
non-residents must leave the reserve.
