The gold strike in the Nel
ehina distnet altords another
Vi*rv urgent reason why the
government should lost' no time,
after the railway bill is passed,
n starting construction work
on a railway from Kern creek
to the Matauusku coal tields.
on the verge of the discovery.
Should the Nelehina prove
a i eh and extensive gold camp,
lts i> freely predicted by the
prospectors who have located
claims there, an immense pas
senger and freight traffic would
develop, insuring a profitable
railway line from its inception.
The fact that not a word of
condemnation has been uttered
against the Nelehina by any one
of the hundreds that have been
then*, it is fair to assume tl at
the district is one of great
promise tor the tuture.
The Nelehina presents a pow
erful argument in favor of the
re,up! t on of the local system,
ami one that our advocates
would do well to consider.
Here a ease of killing two
birds with one stone opening
tin* Matanuska and the Nelehina
with one railway system.

American rail
roads are the fastest
and safest in the world.
The American trainman
counts his time in seconds.
■
Foreign railroad men carry no
such watch as the HOWARD.
Oliicial inspection of railroad
watches exists in no other country.
HOWARD Railroad Watches(lexer
aetting) arc officially certified and adopted
by the time inspectors of one hundred and
forty of the leading railroads of America.
Better than that, their daily performance
is finer, more accurate than the most exact
ing railroad requirements.
The balance-wheel of the HOWARD
Watch is made of special hard-tempered
steel—will not knock out of true with the
jar and vibration of railroad service.
Every HOWARD is made and ad
justed as a fine watch. Cased and timed
in its own case by the HOWARD watch
makers.
The price of the HOWARD is fixed
—railroad models $50 to $140—a
printed price-ticket attached.
We carry this distinctive watch and
would like to show it to you.
