area. Manitenance funds for existing projects are auto
matically provided for. Being listed under new projects
for the coming year it may be the$100,000 listed in
the dispatch is for that 10-mile stretch of road over II
iamna way. Major Elliott, president of the A. R. C., has
said his department favors the construction of that road
so residents of this and the Westward area can rest as
sured the road will be built,
The brain is like the dollar, an oldtimer observed
the other day: it isn’t worth much until it is put in circu
lation.
There is one great difference bettwen English and
Alaskan legislation. In England they never pass a law
until the people are educated up to it. In Alaska they
pass the law and do the educating afterward.
That’s the announcement that always causes the genuine
* bargain-seeker to prick up his ears and take notice.

From Fairbanks comes a remark
able piece of news telling of the
attack by an eagle upon Albert
Bell, mining man, who was en
route over a trail in the Kantish
na, when attacked.
The Fairbanks News Miner sail
Mr. Bell’s attention was first at
tracted by a slight rustling sound
and upon turning saw a gigantic
eagle about to swoop down on him.
He was unarmed except for a small
stick but fortunately his partner,
Kerns, attracted by Bell’s excla
mation, was carrying a rifle and
with one shot killed the eagle.
The eagle measured eight feet
across the wings. Mr. Bell believes
the eagle mistook him for some
animal upon which it was wont
to prey. The eagle’s descent was
made without noise, the eagle be
ing only a few feet away when Bell
was first warned of danger.
