ON WRONG TRACK
NEXAXA, Dec. 23.—The attack on
Captain Mears, member of the Alas
kan Engineering commission, which
was contained in a recent issue of the
Alaska Citizen, has caused much un
favorable comment in Xenana, where
it is recognized that all the members
of the commission are doing all they
can to hasten the completion of the
railroad.
In a statement given a representa
tive of the News. Thos. Higgs, Jr.,
declared emphatically that the article
published by the C itizen was ab.^o
lately without warrant, since Captain
Mears is as eager to see the railroad
completed as either of the other two
members of the commission. I o '
reputation of Captain Mears and Ids
associates depend upon the success of
»he enterprise upon which they are
•low engaged, and it the work could
be completed by the end ot anothei
year it would mean more to them
than the salaries they would receive
for a longer period of constn.et'on.
