TROOPS WATCH
WHITE PASS
Fort Seward Men Guard Line to the
Summit and Northwest Mounted
Police From There On.
SKAGWAY, June 25.—(By mail.)—
United States troops are guarding all
bridges from Skagway to the summit
of the White Pass & Yukon railroad.
Also a detail of troopers are massed
at the international summit ready to
respond to any appeal from points
between the summit and Whitehorse
or on the upper Yukon of troops from
Fort Seward to the river.
Just what occasioned the hurrying
to Skagway has not been ascertained.
Two weeks ago several special immi
gration officers were sent hurrying
north to Skagway and it is believed
they reported an alien plot to damage
the railroad property. Several bridges
on the railroad would prove easy to
destroy, crippling the railway for an
entire season.
The Northwest Mounted Police
guard the line from the summit to
Whitehorse and the summit and Skag
way the American soldiers from the
fort are placed. All people traveling
on the road are required to have per
mits and those who have not are lia
ble to arrest.

SEEK SAMPLES
FOR EXHIBIT
Land Department Asks Miners and
Farmers to Aid Resource
Display.
Last fall one of the rooms on the
ground floor of tlie railroad office
building at Seward was set aside for
the purpose of exhibiting samples ol
agricultural and mineral products and
other resources of the country tribu
tary to the railroad.
Active steps are now being taken
by the land and industrial department
to secure these samples and an ar
rangement has been made so that ores,
grains and other exhibits, of that kind
can be delivered to any railroad sta
tion along the line of the government
railroad. The samples should be ad
dressed to the land and industrial de
partment at Seward. Each item should
be labeled—if ore, the kind, with a
statement as to its approximate value
per ton in each kind of metals, and
the mine or locality from which the
ore was taken. All grains ami farm
ing products should be properly label
ed with a statement as to whose farm
or homestead it came from, and in the
vicinity of what town.
The land and ndustrial department
realizes that without cooperation of
the farmers, miners and others it will
be impossible to make a creditable
showing and it is hoped that every
one will take an active interest and
assist in securing a valuable exhibit.
The purpose of the exhibit is to se
cure good reliable and intelligent in
formation concerning the resources of
the territory tributary to the railroad,
and the department believes that there
is no better and more effectual way
of doing this than by showing actual
exhibits.
