ADMINISTRATOR i
OF LINE WAS
FISHER’S AIDE;
New Assistant to Lane
Not to Supplant
Commission
(By United State* Cable)
WASHINGTON, Friday, March 23.
—Herbert A. Meyer, recently named
assistant secretary of the interior and
given administrative control of the
government railroad in Alaska, was
not only secretary to Franklin K.
Lane, but to his predecessor, Walter
Fisher, when the latter was secretary
of the interior. |
In no way does he supplant the A1-]
askan Engineering Commission, which
is building the road under Secretary
Lane, but his position will be one an
alogous to that of assistant to the
president of a railroad with the au
thority to act for Secretary Lane in
most of the questions presented by
the engineering commission.

AN OPPORTUNITY
I have received instructions to sell
all the portrait negatives and certain
equipment and furniture of the Alex
ander photographic studio. A list ol
the articles for sale will be found at
the Seward Drug store, HettePs, and
Brown & Hawkins.
The late Clyde Alexander was a
portrait photographer of the first
j rank. He was chief operator for
James & Bushnell of Seattle, for
seven years, and during his career
won several medals at different ex
positions.
There are only two studios on the
coast that approach the quality of
his work, and a negative taken and re
touched by him is worth having. By
having the negative you can have any
number of prints made from it by any
i ordinary photographer at low cost.
The negatives of a studio are its capi
| tal and are never sold except under
'the present condition, and this oppor
tunity you should not miss. To get
the negatives of the picture you had
taken, communicate with D. C.
Brownell, before April 1, 1917.
